Keiko (Sakurai Junko) was terribly shocked to find out that her son Kohei (Fuku Suzuki) was secretly meeting her husband, Yuji (Masanori Ishii), who was living apart from her. Kohei, who was advised by Shunsuke (Takahiro Miura) to show Keiko the story notes he writes every day, decides to hand over her notes and convey his feelings to her mother. That night, Shuko (Yuka) tells Shunsuke that she will meet her at the end of the year, but Shunsuke can't convey her honest feelings, and the distance between the two becomes even further.

Yuji (Masanori Ishii) headed to the delivery place without being able to prepare the full ransom for Hiiragi (Yuka) and Kohei (Fuku Suzuki), and was taken to the abandoned factory by angry Akagi (Joji Abe). Akagi confine Kohei's parents and children together, and only Hiiragi decides to keep watch over Rei (Aoi Nakabeppu) and hide it in another place. Shunsuke (Takahiro Miura), who was asked for an additional ransom and had no choice but to apply for a loan to Otake (Mickey Curtis), boarded Akagi's hideout alone.
