* MethodActing: Kyoko draws on her experience working for the Fuwa family's inn when she competes against Ruri in the role of a ryokan worker. Even with an injured ankle, Kyoko can move gracefully, make tea like a pro, and sit in seiza with a pleasant smile on her face for the "customer," her sort-of-nemesis Ren Tsuruga. Despite being in tremendous pain while putting weight on the ankle, she doesn't slip up once... until the director realize she's pale, sweating and yet still remains in character, stating she will 'not leave her place until the customer leaves.' The director orders Ren off the set and Kyoko promptly faints.
* SeizaSquirm: In competing against Ruri during the tea ceremony scene, Kyoko must sit in seiza on a fractured ankle. She draws on all her experience working in Sho's parents' inn (especially Mrs. Fuwa's reminders to [[StepfordSmiler smile through the pain]] and keep the customer happy) to make it through the scene without without revealing how much pain she's in. Kyoko's dedication forces Ruri to consider how she would have acted if ''she'' were the injured one - Ruri admits that she would've thrown a fit and forced the director to change the scene.
