Our Exchange Student

The story

A couple hosts Mika, a houseguest the girlfriend chose for her interesting questions. While the girlfriend rushes off, she asks her boyfriend to make Mika feel at home, and Mika's first question is what friends with benefits means. His embarrassed answer, no strings, delights her, and she adds tease to her vocabulary. Later she says she prefers demonstrations to explanations, and mentions that the girlfriend works late tomorrow.

In episode 2 the girlfriend is in the shower, with Mika watching the clock. Her next question is about crossing the line: where is it, and who draws it? His answer is a warning, so she asks him to point it out, then wonders aloud whether this counts.

• The boyfriend: Told to make Mika feel at home, he keeps explaining things he probably shouldn't.
