* Hiiro finally shows what is behind his stoic demeanor. He always thought what happened to Saki is ''his'' fault. Not Taiga's or even ''Graphite's'', just his fault, because she was stressed over being neglected by him in favor of his studies. So, when he finally got a chance to see her again, he won't throw it away, even if it means losing his Kamen Rider and doctor licenses. That's basically the emotional, human side of Hiiro that won against his logical, doctor side.
** He shows it by breaking down crying while the CR crew watches.
