In this week's episode, Mae takes a poke at a common practice in Japanese culture, where the sense of "in" or "out" is pronounced by selectively using different forms of language. In addition, there's an underlying understanding of "honne and tatemae" or "truth and front." While people generally wouldn't like to think of themselves as wearing fake fronts, there just might be other ways where one may unknowingly employ sneaky little fronts, even in the closest relationships.
