You send Sasuke to invite Akane to dine with you. He soon returns with Akane in tow, but Ranma follows her. You scowl at the sight of your most hated enemy, but resolve to be civil to him for the sake of your guest, who has been forced into engagement with him. You hate him almost as much as you know she does. If only she was free to come to you as you know she wants to.

Sasuke brings Akane a chair while you allow Ranma to stand. He does not entirely appreciate your generosity, but eagerly eats the food Sasuke prepared for you. Akane eats in a much more dignified manner. Suddenly she realizes something. "Ranma, you didn't eat the lunch I made you!"

"Sorry, Akane, I'm stuffed," Ranma says.

"But Ranma, I spent hours working on this lunch for you! Why won't you eat it?" Akane says.

"You should eat it, Ranma! Any other man would be happy to eat the cooking of the lovely Akane!" you say. What an ungrateful cur.

"Then you eat it!" he says.

You stare at him for a moment.
