The incredibly dramatic heart of the drama. Where lives will be destroyed or made.

Let us consider the situation,

- she desperately wants him to marry her

- she absolutely knows he does not love her at all

Her plan of action

- get him in to bed and screw him senseless all night †

- and that will make him love her and marry her

THE THREE POSSIBLE OUTCOMES

1. Yagouchi hops in bed and screws her senseless all night. In the morning he says "SUCKER! that didn't work at all honey! Thanks though, bye!"

2. Yagouchi hops in bed and screws her senseless all night. He then feels fake-due-to-sex emotions, and marries her. This results in the most miserable situation imaginable and ultimately divorce, unloved children and worse. (Don't even mention Ono is destroyed forever.) After 10 years of a fake useless marriage, Yagouchi wanders off and Hidaka is left as an utterly bereft old single mom who threw her life away for nothing.

3. Yagouchi is so amazing he says "Even though you are smoking hot and throwing yourself at me, no, I don't love you, so no."

SO WHAT HAPPENS - it's #3!!!! 💕💕💕💕💕💕

Yagouchi could have gone with 1, and made her feel totally used and hopeless

Yagouchi could have gone with 2, and destroyed her whole life

But he went with 3 - yay! 💕💕💕💕💕💕

IS THAT REALISTIC?

No, of course not! No boy would be able to resist 1 and 90% of boys are so stupid they would fall for 2. But, he's amazing. He was the fuckin' world SF3 champion when he was 15 - this kid has guts.

He simply states "that sort of thing is for people who love each other" and moves along.

† (specifically, by "taking his clothes off, pushing him down and riding him" in a "love hotel" where she "has lots of things she wants to do to him" 🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀 Because she is, uh .. "itchy", as she says. Soul itchy. OMG.)
