Luka and Hyuna's first meeting is depicted in the episode. Luka had a complicated, abusive past, being held up to standards of perfection by his guardian, so he counted his fingers one by one to ground himself. Noticing how alone and isolated he was in Anakt Garden, Hyunwoo approached him first, followed by Hyuna.

Hyunwoo and Luka's problems began at the same time. Hyunwoo was overtaken by child-like jealousy, and Luka, who had never been an ordinary child, didn't know how to deal with those feelings, ending up acting on impulsive violence.

Mizi and Sua try each other's clothes in the dressing room, and Mizi taking off her clothes and showing skin makes Sua blush in embarrassment.
