Эпизод 5

Hachiman arrives late for his after school prep class and tries and fails explaining his tardiness to Shizuka. At the same time, another student, Saki Kawasaki also arrives late. As Hachiman leaves the class he notices Saki looking at a flyer for summer school classes. Later, Hachiman runs into Yukino, Yui and Saika having a study session at a local cafe. Unsurprisingly, Yui and Yukino blatantly reject him as part of the group until they are joined by Komachi and her friend, Taishi Kawasaki. After brief introductions and a bit of chatting, Taishi explains to them that he is worried about Saki since she comes home late every night. Yukino resolves to accept his worry as a request for the Service Club and determine what Saki's agenda is. While at school, the Service Club try and fail to get information from Saki after using a cat as an emotional catalyst since Taishi says Saki is allergic. They then inform Shizuka, but she is also put down after Saki mentions her marital status. Finally Yui suggests that Hayato should use his charm to get Saki to open up but she ignores him. Later on, Taishi informs them that Saki had received a message from the manager of a cafe with the word "Angel" in its name and upon some research, they find two cafe's in Chiba City matching the description. The first being a maid cafe, which yields no results, however Yui and Yukino try on maid costumes. The second, being a cafe on the top floor of the classy Royal Okura Hotel. Hachiman, Yui and Yukino show up in their best designer clothing and enter the cafe to discover that Saki does indeed work part-time there. After a small chat with Yukino, it is revealed that Saki lies about her age to the management so that she can work nights there for her own reasons. As the group leaves, Hachiman asks that Saki meet them the following day so they can talk about her brother, Taishi. The following day, Hachiman is able to reveal to the group that Saki is working to fund her summer school tuition so as not to burden her family, however as Komachi points out, Saki was inadvertently worrying her brother and goes on to explain how siblings should act by making a reference to the things Hachiman does for her. Finally Hachiman explains to Saki the requirements for a scholarship. Finally, as they walk home, Komachi, reveals to Hachiman that he already knew the owner of the dog he saved, i. e. Yui, shocking him. Afterwards, at the end of the Workplace Visit, Yui waits for Hachiman. He thanks her for her kindness to him and explains to her that she doesn't need to be kind to him out of guilt for the accident anymore and that he would still have been a loner if he hadn't saved her dog, hinting that they don't need to speak to each other anymore. Upset by his words, Yui runs off. Hachiman ends with a monologue explaining that a loner such as himself might easily get his hopes up when girls are nice to him, and thus might misunderstand their feelings, so rather than fall for the "trap" of misinterpreting feelings, he will always reject them.
