Bruno begins to call Heine "master" again but Heine dissuade him from calling him like that in front of his brothers because it feels embarrassing, and Bruno agreed. But as he see Licht and Kai coming late, he begins to scold them for disrespecting "Master Heine", to his brothers confusion on why he calls Heine "master". Heine gives up and let Bruno calls him whatever he wanted to use. Bruno keeps scolding Licht for saying Bruno is too stiff, and they begin to argue. Kai then yells at them to stop, they stopped because they can't resist Kai's "pureness".
Leonhard is the last to arrive and confidently assumes that none of his brothers show up and Heine must be heartbroken that he decided to leave. To his surprise, all of his brothers are chatting happily with Heine. Leonhard feels betrayed that his brothers now accepted Heine despite their rejection earlier. Leonhard feels even more betrayed when he finds out that even Bruno, who is usually hard to convince, are praising "Master Heine". Heine then gives back their test result: Bruno got the highest score of 100, Kai got 87, and Licht got 60. Leonhard answered all of the questions wrong, and he got 1 point for writing his name, to his brothers surprise. Leonhard feels humiliated and once again declared that all teachers are enemies to him. He then runs away from the palace with his horse.
Bruno apologized for Leonhard's reaction and tells him why he hates teacher so much. Leonhard was always really bad at studying and his first royal tutor was really strict on him, he suffered violence from the first royal tutor. Because of his traumatic experience, he always run away from all the royal tutors from then on and thinks Heine is just the same. Heine becomes determined to prove to him that he is not like that. He jumped out of the palace window, with the princes frightened because he just jumped out from the third floor. Bruno is the most hysteric and yell "Master!", to Licht and Kai's confusion.
Meanwhile, Leonhard is quickly running away with his horse and look back at the times he ran away from multiple royal tutors in the past. None of them got to catch up with him. Heine suddenly appears behind him, riding a horse while standing because his feet couldn't reach the pedal due to his height. Leonhard still won't stopping so Heine jumped on him and fall safely in a shrubbery. Leonhard is shocked that a royal tutor is finally able to catch up with him, Heine then tells him that he is not like all the other tutors he had. A teacher's job is to help their student change and Heine is willing to help Leonhard, even if he doesn't want to accept Heine. Heine reach his hand out to Leonhard, but he replied it by pinching Heine's finger and saying that his reward for catching up to him is "that much" and while he still doesn't trust Heine completely, he will try to.
The sun has set and Leonhard is worried that everyone is looking for him. They just realized that they are stranded and their horses are nowhere to be found. Walking back to the palace is too far without horses so they decided to sleep outside for the night and wait for the guards to find them. Leonhard feels mad that a prince like him have to sleep outside, blaming Heine for their situation and angrily tells him to get out. But Heine replied that he's already outside and how is he supposed to "get out", frustrating Leonhard even more. Back in the palace, Bruno desperately want to go find his master and Leonhard.
