Detailed Summary
The seniors of the trio are seated at a restaurant. Ikushima’s senior appears nervous and it is revealed that she’s called the others out in order to settle the truth behind the old incident involving her stolen lunch money. The other two also seem uncomfortable at having to sit with one another.

Ikushima’s senior apologizes for calling them out of their busy schedules. Almost stammering in fright, she starts telling them why she called them, when her arm knocks against her drink, causing it to tip off from the table. Startled, she reaches out to catch it, but it hits the floor and the glass is smashed to bits.

The pieces pierce her hands and she screams out in pain. The other two appear worried. Ignoring the pain and her bloodied hands, Ikushima’s senior apologizes again and pushes the envelope labelled ‘school lunch money’ (給食費) towards them. She tells them that she found her ‘stolen’ lunch money at home.

The other seniors had been holding on to their glasses until then. Upon hearing her confession, they instinctively crush their respective glasses into pieces. Ikushima’s senior, teary-eyed, starts trembling in fear. With bits of glass sticking through her bloodied fingers, Yanagin’s senior asks her why she hadn’t said anything about it until then. She confesses that she had been too scared to spit it out.

Habara’s senior admits to being annoyed about it, but sympathises with Ikushima’s senior, saying she must have struggled with the choice of letting the truth out. She then puts a bleeding hand on Yanagin’s senior’s shoulder and the two agree that they might as well put their squabbles to an end. They tell Ikushima’s senior to quit dwelling on it as well.

Ikushima’s senior covers her eyes and sobs. Extending her arms towards the others, she says she’s truly sorry, but the others tell her not to worry about it. The three then clap hands in a show of friendship. Yanagin’s and Habara’s seniors then tell Ikushima’s senior that she might as well treat them to some cake since she had no need for the allowance anymore.

Asking if they were referring to the envelope, Ikushima’s senior tells them she’d already spent that money on something else. They stare at her in mixed surprise and anger.
