Teshima and Aoyagi break away from the pack to pursue the riders ahead of them, but Kyoto Fushimi stands in their way. In order to complete the objective given to him by Midousuji, Yamaguchi challenges Teshima and Aoyagi to a sprint that comes with a catch. As a climber, the terms are disadvantageous for Teshima, but they can’t move forward without accepting the challenge. Out of concern for Aoyagi, who can’t sprint at full speed due to an injured leg, Teshima pulls him along, and Aoyagi recalls how they met as he watches him…
I keep telling you this, 
but I'm a third-year,
Hey, etwas mehr Respekt
vor den Älteren,
No paro de repetirte que soy de tercero
y que tú solo eres de primero.
No paro de repetirte que soy de tercero
y que tú solo eres de primero.
Je te rappelle que je suis en terminale,
tu me dois un peu plus de respect.
Non so quante volte te l'ho già detto, 
ma io sono al terzo anno
Eu já te disse que estou no terceiro ano,
Я уже устал повторять,
 но я на третьем году,
