Shougo's company, Sena Pro, is planning a big event in which Izumi and Ryouma will be modeling wedding dresses for men. Izumi is thrilled about the opportunity, but Ryouma is hesitant. Meanwhile, Rei and Shougo are struggling to keep up with the event planning.
As the day of the event approaches, Ryouma is feeling increasingly anxious. He tries on his dress for the first time and is stunned by how he looks. Izumi tries to comfort him, but Ryouma brushes him off. As the two of them step out onto the runway, Ryouma freezes up. Izumi saves the day by pushing him down the runway and giving him the confidence he needs.
After the event, Shougo and Rei congratulate everyone on their hard work. Izumi and Ryouma head back to their dressing room to change when Izumi realizes that Ryouma is crying. He embraces Ryouma and they share a tender moment together.
The next day, Izumi is back to work on his manga when he receives a surprise visit from Ryouma. Ryouma congratulates him on his recent success and confesses his feelings for him. Izumi is surprised but happy, and the two of them share a kiss.
As the episode wraps up, we see various characters reflecting on their experiences and growth over the course of the season. Ryouma and Izumi are shown holding hands and smiling, hinting at a blossoming romance between them.
