Mei undergoes strict instruction from a geisha named Otoyakko to become a proper lady worthy of being Ougai's fiancée. She struggles desperately to learn how to wear a kimono, how to carry herself, and etiquette. Otoyakko observes Mei and tells her that, "I don't mind women like you." As Mei's training continues, she fails to take notice of when Otoyakko slips and speaks in a more manly tone, revealing that her geisha mentor may not be all "she" appears to be.
And I'm constantly being taken care of by 
Ougai-san and I can't really do anything in return.
y Ougai-san siempre me está
cuidando sin que pueda pagarle…
y Ougai-san siempre me está
cuidando sin que pueda pagarle…
Il signor Ougai deve prendersi cura di me
 e io non posso fare nulla per ricambiare...
e constantemente dou trabalho para o
Ougai-san e não posso fazer nada em troca.
Огай постоянно заботится обо мне,
а я ничем не могу отплатить...
