Ruby wants to be an idol for herself and for the little girl who died from cancer. The real world, however, doesn't care about big dreams: something Aqua knows all too well.

Aqua agrees to Kana's request, but not for the reason she wants. There's a connection between Masaya Kaburagi and Ai, which leads Aqua to the set of a TV drama for answers.

Kana's resolve remains strong despite her washed up reputation. Aqua sets the stage for her with a bold move that flips the script, which leads to opportunities for them both.

Left reeling in the immediate aftermath, Akane's costars unite in friendship and purpose: they will clear their friend's name. They owe her nothing less.

Focused on revenge, Aqua underestimated Akane and gave the talented actress a way to win his heart. If love is a game, Akane is playing for keeps and Kana is falling behind.
