Yuta called out to Souta (Amano Yu), who was awake at the nursery school instead of taking a nap. Souta complained, "Ma-kun's gone. Mommy's going to be all alone now."
"There's no need to worry," Yuta said, stroking Souta's head, "and when that happens, I'll be your 'Ma-kun'!" Looking at Souta's happy face and asking, "Really?", Yuta flashed a big smile.
Afterwards, Yuta renews his resolve by telling his uncle, Director Yoshizumi (Makita Sports), who is also the manager of a second-hand clothing store, "I want to buy some second-hand clothes, but the wildest kind. I can't do it the way I've been until now."
On social media, comments such as "Here it is! Ma-sensei is serious," "Ma-sensei's 'I'm going to be Mark-kun' statement was so cute, and his wild demeanor was so cool," "The part where he said 'I'm going to be Mark-kun' and the big, crumpled smile afterwards were amazing," and "I feel like Ma-sensei is starting late...!" spread.
