The Romeo and Juilet auditions begin in earnest. Yamada looks back on her pre-Kouka years as she finds her bearings in her role. Sarasa revists a conversation she overheard between Kouzaburou and Akiya.
♬ Or could it be that God himself
now tests the vigor of my love? ♬
♬ أم يعقل أن الإله ينفسه يختبر  قوة حبي؟ ♬
Welch Teufel bist du,
daß du so mich folterst?
¿O será que Dios mismo
pone a prueba la fuerza de mi amor?
Serait-ce Dieu qui me met face
à une telle contrariété
Ou será que o próprio Deus
Agora testa o vigor do meu amor?
