Wanting to check in on Touka, Sensei decides to spend his morning at the archery range. Upon arriving though, he finds Wakana and Tsubasa talking amongst themselves. Joining them he finds the two to be on familiar terms already, with Tsubasa revealing they're both alumni of the same private school, though not former classmates due to the gap in ages. After some bantering between Wakana and Sensei, Tsubasa, on her way out, invites the two out with her for the afternoon. Wakna declines, having to return to her duty as kyudo club advisor, but Sensei accepts, and the two begin to take a stroll around the premises.
Having spoken to her daughter, Tsubasa tells Sensei the only thing left to do to execute their plan is for him to push Chika in the right direction. Still feeling hesitant about the idea, Sensei pushes back, saying it feels odd for him to try and uproot Chika's life just because the two of them think it's better for her. Tsubasa disagrees, saying most people aren't smart enough to make their own decisions and that in Chika's case, she's risking two lives instead of just her own by refusing her offer. Still, not on board, Sensei argues that Chika needs to fail on her own if she wants to improve and that providing the illusion of free will for her isn't giving Chika the credit she deserves. Tsubasa continues to disagree but relents that Sensei is free to believe his class is as smart as he thinks he is, so long as nothing bad happens to them.
Now having a more solid grasp of Tsubasa's personality, Sensei questions why she'd ever let Touka into his class if she's so controlling. Tsubasa clarifies that Touka's autonomy is not as real as Sensei thinks it is, but that she allows her to attend Kumon-mi High so that she makes mistakes that she wants her to – However, she would never put her daughter into a position that she cannot succeed in. Having said so much about herself, Tsubasa tries to pry information out of Sensei, asking him a barrage of questions that he entirely deflects, feeling he has little that's interesting about him. Tsubasa accepts this answer, though does say she'll look into his past on her own time later.
Sensei escorts Tsubasa back to her car, ruminating over if she's the sort of person who ignores what's better for others entirely, or if that mindset will break once faced with change.
