Worker Ric was awesome. I didn't register the difference.... I am assuming the telephone number was never actually his father's. ^.^
I need to get pumped for this! Only two more left!

i can understand why ric doesn't try to talk to his dad, he seems like a massive jerk

I wonder if Ric and his dad will resolve their issues between each other. I can't believe it's almost over :( Hope there's another season after this ♥

One extremely good episode with such amazing developments. All those character interactions, humour is just priceless. Relationship between Nino and Riku is developing so where without being cheesy or annoying.

I just LOVE the dynamics between Kou, Takai and Hoshi (although TakaixKou is just plain creepy) xD "Keep on trying." He sure will, Hoshi. Sure will.

Huuuge daddy issues. He even gave him a wrong number XD

Hilarious ending. The call and Hoshi's response.

I was hoping that when the contractor dropped, Ric would create his own. I was hoping he'd maintain his confidence as perfection and declare his father's company as nothing. Let's seee...

Hoshi made a song for Ric?! =o

Ric is so cool in this episode. When he was gone, Nino was lonely and when he got back. I first thought that Nino was going to hug him but pff!!!! WTH! It was funny but I disliked it. Nino forgot her lover well...... bad joke

Hilarious as always, this show has been very consistent on that front. Most comedy series grow old by this time, but that isn't the case here.

This was a good episode. More serious which is nice.
Though I wanted to see Nino hug Rec in a sincere way instead of mistake the other guy for him and then shove fish in Rec's mouth. It ruins the character development.
