Its all about the ebb and flow of the great galactic stream, baby.
Which is why we find our friends and opponents in various tight spots.
On that note: We cut from Katagiris dreamy family breakfast to the episodesTrainspotting-esque meth sequence.
Samantha is looking for BFF Polina, whos been taken to Yoshino to work off her debts.
The only catch is they gotta stay and party with him before he talks.
So the whole scene goes wooey-wooey as Jake smokes meth for the first time and Samantha parties with Karuki.
Shes able to find out Yoshino is a luxury ship where Tozawa hosts top clients and business partners.
Karuki gets handsy so Samantha throws a swift kick to his nuts, and she and Jake bounce.
Unfortunately, being Team Sato is also something of a doomed position these days.
Sato takes him to the hospital, which basically acts as a symbolic hall of mirrors for him.
Very few get second chances, and often even a second chance comes too late to change the fates.

In any case, the whole thing puts her on the narrative path she was headed all along.
Tell the girl well loan her the money for her club, he orders.
Then, if her club makes good money, well change the deal on her.
But Ishida doesnt budge.
Sounds like his sisters not doing well, and hell, Jake aint doin so hot now either.
Is that what you really want, son?
his father asks, probably knowing the answer as much as we do.
on the good ship Yoshino.
