Again, Kikuhiko asks Shin and Konatsu to return to Tokyo with him. Miyokichi finds Kikuhiko later, at his inn and declares her love for him, but Shin arrives and offers to quit rakugo if she will stay with him. Miyokichi leans against the old balcony railing which collapses and she falls. Shin grabs her but also falls over the balcony. They are both caught by Kikuhiko, but he cannot pull them up.
