Taiga's efforts to get closer to Yūsaku fail: A scheme in basketball ends with Taiga knocked out, and she drops a plate of cookies out a window.

Taiga has a photo album full of blurry pictures of Kitamura. Ryūji offers to snap some pictures of him instead.

During the ski trip, Ryūji confesses his feelings for Minori, but not to her. When Taiga disappears, everyone frantically searches for her.
