Important things that happened

• Mari fails her trial at the salon, but later passes with a second chance.
• Kaidou reveals the unforeseen accident he got caught was a set up, which means someone wanted to destroy his dream.
• The Professor and Kaidou applaud Kazuhiko will make his own dream come true. Later, Yuka sees the Professor rigging Kazuhiko's motorbike. She realizes he is trying to destroy Kazuhiko's guitar dream and that he was the one who destroyed Kaidou's dream.
• When Kiba confronts the Professor, the Professor says he is motivated to destroy dreams because he's jealous of the students are more talented than himself. He thinks they shouldn't fulfill their petty dreams, but live their lives in despair.
• Kaidou accepts Yuka's request to play his guitar again. He feels pain on his fingers and suddenly stops. Kaidou finally gives up his guitar dream and says Kazuhiko is the one who will succeed.

Quotes

• Kuro Kazuhiko

"Mom and Dad... they think I'm fooling around and half-heartedly pursuing music... (Kazuhiko holds up his guitar) I would die for this. It doesn't mean I'm never going home... when I'm satisfied with a song I can play... I'm thinking of having them listen to it. If I do that, maybe they'll understand.

• Kaidou Naoya

"You... have you ever had a dream? If you ask me... a dream... is the same as a curse. To remove the curse, you have to make your dream come true. But... a person who can't reach the goal is a person who is always cursed. My pain... you can't understand it."

• Inui Takumi

"You understand his feelings? Would you say it's okay to die for the sake of a dream?"

"Hey, do you know? When you have a dream... sometimes it's really painful... and sometimes you get really fired up. Or so I hear. I don't have a dream. But, you know, I can protect dreams."
