Hayato and Hanayu learn that blood is thicker than water, even in the kitchen.

Then Hanayu learns about self-sacrifice firsthand when Patisserie Ashitaba is offered a high-profile pastry project the night before her big exam. Are her sushi dreams more important than keeping the family business afloat?
