Plot[]
Tsukushi Makino wakes up to find her parents have set up a table in the middle of the kitchen. Their reason being "The place is so big we feel uncomfortable." The family sits down to breakfast. Susumu Makino starts talking about Tsukasa Domyoji which puts Tsukushi in a snappy mood. While getting dressed, she reminds herself to have nothing to do with the Domyoji family. Susumu walks in and asks if he will be able to attend high school, considering their family's situation. She assures him that he will.
Arriving at Eitoku Academy, Tsukushi is greeted by Sakurako Sanjo, who then points out the F4. Tsukushi quickly disappears, but returns briefly for her shoe. Sakurako confronts Tsukushi about avoiding Tsukasa, before asking if she is free after school. Tsukushi has to find a job, leading Sakurako to claim that she knows of a well paying one. Meanwhile, Tsukasa voices his annoyance about Tsukushi. Rui Hanazawa tells him to "give up on her" and that he invited him to village to have a "proper parting" with Tsukushi.
After school, Tsukushi accompanies Sakurako to meet Shigeru Okawahara and Yuki Matsuoka. Sakurako and Shigeru have arranged group dates with college students. Tsukushi is enticed to stay at the mention of the job again. The first set of boys arrive, which Sakurako immediately rejects. Several more sets follow, but none interest the girls. A last set of good-looking boys arrive. They call over their friend Kiyonaga, who says "Group date? I'd prefer a group grope." The girls are shocked since he looks like Tsukasa.
