Let's fuck around a little bit more before the party starts. I've got some loose ends to tie up, after all...
----
Whoa hey, it looks like those flowers have--
-- finally bloomwhat the shit is this!?
[Kasumi]
We've ended up growing this many Chinese cabbages!
[Ogami]
Ch, Chinese cabbage!? And... this much!? H~m, this is, uh...
Rule number one of botany: if it ain't eyecandy...
... then it's food. 
[Ogami]
Let's make a stew out of these. It'll certainly warm up the both of us, huh...
[Kasumi]
A stew? That sounds lovely! If we have this many cabbages, we should have enough for everyone in the theater.
[Ogami]
That's not what I meant, Kasumi-kun. I want to cook a stew with you, just the two of us...
...
I suppose women doing gardening duties have some kind of hypnotic effect on Ogami's libido and/or romantic tendencies...
[Kasumi]
Eh, Ogami-san...
... though I'm really can't see the romantic aspects of "I want to cook a stew with you," and it makes one hell of an awkward euphemism.
[Ogami]
Would you like to stew up some cabbage... together?
Not the most accurate of translations, perhaps, but I couldn't resist. 
[Kasumi]
Yes...
...........
.......
.....
...
..
.
Regretfully, no stew-making happens because the tone of this scene suddenly switches from "romantic" back to "completely normal."
----
[Ogami]
Sure, we didn't even get FLOWERS, but I'm satisfied with just staring at all these plants and going "damn, I have a shitload of vegetables in my garden."
[Kasumi]
Much like your romantic life, huh?
[Ogami]
Well, I do like to cast my net wide, if you catch my drif--
[Ogami]
I mean shut up.
----
----
[Kasumi]
I really enjoyed myself...
[Ogami]
Kasumi-kun...
----
[Ogami]
If all it takes to get women to love me is standing around and sprinkling water on shit with a watering can, do you think I could get the same effect with a hose?
[Kasumi]
... you might have better success if you keep your mouth shut, Ogami-san.
[Ogami]
What? My flirting-slash-conversational skills are top-notch! For instance: your eyes are as blue as the bluest window cleaner. Eh? How's that?
[Kasumi]
... well, for starters, they're brown.
[Ogami]
Oh, right. So... uh, maybe if I said that your eyes are as brown as shi--
[Kasumi]
On second thought, stick to the window cleaner.
----
[Ogami]
I got it. Good luck with your work.
[Kasumi]
Yes! Now, please excuse me here...
We've still got time to burn!
Sure, Sumire probably won't be in the salon, but we can totally catch up on--
-- on, uh, watching Yuri break.
It's kind of hard to see here, but her portrait window is flickering. Kind of like portraits flicker during battle, when a character is at critical HP.
[Ogami]
Yuri-kun? Are you alright? You don't look so good...
Thud.
What the-- what the fuck kind of priorities ARE those!?
"Hey look, she's unconscious, IT'S TIME FOR SURPRISE SEX! 
" really isn't the type of problem-solving skills that I want to see on my hot-blooded mecha protagonist. 
[Ogami]
You've come to, Yuri-kun? Thank goodness...
... oh, okay, he's just being a nice conscientious gentleman.
!?
[Yuri]
O... Ogami-san...
[Ogami]
What on earth happened? That you'd just suddenly collapse...
[Yuri]
I... wanted to fit into that outfit that you had chosen for me, Ogami-san...
And, um... I tried that dieting strategy that I'd read about in that one women's magazine...
----
[Ogami]
What the hell kind of dieting strategy did you DO? You look like three shades of death.
[Yuri]
Well...
- 1 glass of water
- Repeat
[Yuri]
... it wasn't a very good idea on hindsight.
[Ogami]
On HINDSIGHT!?
----
[Ogami]
Yuri-kun...
It's not quite the "you're a bleeding idjit" response that I was hoping for, but it's close enough.
[Ogami]
Don't push yourself like that! Even if you lose weight like that... there's no point if you make yourself sick!!
[Ogami]
No matter how many beautiful clothes you can put on, if you're not your usual energetic self, Yuri-kun, I...
[Yuri]
Ogami-san...
[Ogami]
Don't... push yourself like that anymore.
[Cue "Awwwww" track.]
[Yuri]
Yes... thank you, Ogami-san...
...
I'm sorry, whenever I see so many "hurrrrr" expressions in one update, a little part of me just curls up and starts crying in the corner. 
[Ogami]
See you later, Yuri-kun. Don't push yourself too hard now.
NEXT TIME: One last update before THE PARTY TO END ALL PARTIES (ominous echo)
