Yuriko recalls her grandmother wanting to give her a painting when she got married and asks Sakurako to look through her personal effects to see which one it could be. After looking over the three paintings, finding meaning in each of them, Sakurako decides she is unable to find the true painting in question, believing it to be a mystery only Yuriko can solve. The next day, ShÅtarÅ shares some pudding with Sakurako and her caretaker, Ume Sawa, lamenting over his own grandmother who died of cancer. As ShÅtarÅ becomes curious as to why she always requested a specific brand of pudding, Ume deduces that it was to buy time for painkillers to kick in so that his hospital visits could be peaceful ones.
