In the previous episode, Ine, Shouzou, Mino, and Shouta reached Atami and put up at a luxurious inn with an open-air bath. Mino convinced her grandparents that they ought to share a room as they were on their honeymoon. This arrangement allowed her to share a room with Shouta.

At night, Mino asked Shouta to address her as "Grandma," mimicking Shouzou. This role-play led to a playful proposal from Mino, to which Shouta, in character as Shouzou, responded that they were already married. Shouta then tried calling Mino by her first name which led to an awkward moment, following which they decided to retire for the night.

Meanwhile, Shouzou had also fallen asleep, missing his bath with Ine. He woke up the next day as an old man with a muscular physique and even bested Shouta in a swimming race. He tried to persuade Ine to flaunt her new bikini, but she was too shy.

Later, Shouzou and Ine engaged in an intense ping pong match, followed by a relaxing bath. They laughed about their current circumstances, and how glad they were with their lives.

The next day, they visited a nearby jinja and wrote their wishes on ema tablets. The episode revealed that Mino wished to return to Atami with the person she liked, that is Shouta, while Shouzou wished to be Ine's husband in their next life.

They also visited an ancient kusunoki tree, which was believed to add a year to one's lifespan each time they walked around it. Shouzou, Ine, Mino, and Shouta all took turns going around the tree. Shouta wished to be more than friends with Mino in their next life, but recoiled when their hands touched.

On the other hand, Mino recalled Shouta's dream of returning to his homeland after fulfilling his dream of playing soccer in Tokyo to repay his debt of gratitude to the land that had brought him up. She had not found her own dream yet, but envied her grandparents' relationship.

It was also revealed that the previous night, she had approached the sleeping Shouta and kissed him on the forehead.

The episode ended with the group traveling back home. While everyone was dozing, Ine reminisced about how they had missed out on their honeymoon due to her health and Shouzou's debt. Shouzou had promised her that they would go on their honeymoon once Ine got better and he had earned more.

However, Ine never got better and by the time Shouzou had earned enough, they were too old. Now, Shouzou had finally fulfilled his promise.
