One day Kota comes to Ise. He asks Oshin for the location of Kayo's grave so that he can pay his respects in the morning. Oshin says she will meet him there so that he can see Nozomi but he tells her no, in case he is followed by the police. The next morning, Oshin waits for him at the grave with Nozomi and Hitoshi, but when Kota arrives he is captured by the special police who accuse him of planning to escape to Moscow. The police allow Kota to light incense for Kayo before they take him away. Kota pretends that he does not know Oshin to protect her, but Oshin is devastated to see Kota being taken away.
