This episode introduces a novelty in the series: Sakura learns that her great-grandfather wasn't keen on his grandaughter's marrying Sakura's father. This uncomfortable bit of revelation is extremely unsettling to Sakura, she sets out to mend the past wounds by making a gift of her own design. Like in another episode that also featured her father as a major contributing factor to the plot, she decides to adorn the handmade memento with with a flower arrangement. That is the perfect opportunity to use the flower card and with little ado she brandishes it and proceeds to turn it into another Star Card. A letter recounting her mother's positive impressions of her father adds the finishing touches. Since Sakura's father is involved in the story, this means that Maddison's mother must also make a meaningful appearance, so she is tasked with delivering the carefully prepared present to the older man. The reconciling process works as intended and the estranged males finally make peace with one another. In return, the elderly man gives Sakura her mother's dress. The much appreciated thank-you present had actually been worn by Sakura in their previous encounter while Sakura was holiday making and met him.
