This Event takes place in the following locations:
Sensei once again vocalizes the decay of people's affection for him, all while Ami frantically attempts to comfort him. She apologizes profusely for leaving him tonight, explaining that she hadn't anticipated either of them being anywhere but the Christmas party. Filling in the gaps of Sensei's words once again, she agrees that this home is no longer safe, anticipating that more of the class will begin to pop up now that the first has already cracked. Unexpectedly, Sensei speaks up, cryptically asking where "she" is and claiming it's all his fault she's gone. Hearing this, Ami insists to him that he's never done anything wrong and that it's everyone else who is evil and out to get him. She claims they failed, though, as he still came running back to her when breaking.
Ami begins to break, admitting that despite her best efforts, she still can't be the perfect replacement for her mother. She's stunlocked by "Sensei's" admission that he's seen her lately in his dreams. Ami similarly reveals that she sees her there too, sometimes with him, sometimes with her father. Despite her attachment, she feels Sensei's a much better father figure, as he's been with her longer and has seen her grow up into a "special girl" who'd do anything for him – If he wants someone gone, all he needs to do is ask. The only alternative is leaving town and escaping past the barrier.
Sensei speaks up in protest at this idea, shocking Ami who quickly rationalizes this as a symptom of his decaying mental state. She asks him to close his eyes and picture the happiest moment in his life, confident it's a moment with her – Unbeknownst to Ami, Sensei pictures his birthday trip with Maya, recalling the moment they spent together watching the fireworks.
Opening his eyes, he begins to cry, with Ami hastily trying to calm him down. He meekly asks if "it" is over and if Maya is really gone. Ami shuts down this topic immediately, not wanting to hear more about it and telling him that she's abandoned him because she never truly cared. While combating unheard voices, she dismisses his attempts to fight against this, declaring that she'll work harder at keeping "bugs" such as Uta and Io out. All these intrusions are undue obstacles in a life Ami desperately wants back – A life she'll fight tooth and nail for to preserve.
