Matsuda tries to explain his role in the graduation match and offer whatever "data" he has gathered to make up. World #3 Deneuve specializes in uchi mata, but it is clear that Paddy-field has no chance even armed with this intelligence. As expected, Paddy-field loses. Kyon-Kyon is up next, and she relates her history of being isolated from the world due to her weakness and poor health. She tells the team that judo has helped her a lot, and she is determined to risk her life to help Yawara. Kyon-Kyon, who is weak but good at absorbing lessons, scores a yuko with an unexpected deashi barai. To defend, she turns into a "turtle" and fails her arms, as Yawara has taught her. Trying to help, the team members give her contradictory advice, which confuses her. She is placed in a choke hold but refuses to submit, and loses consciousness and the match. Down 1 to 2, Sayuri is matched against the other team's heavyweight, and has no idea what advice is being given to her.
