What do I tell the conference next?

I'd like to give Rosa a one-on-one evaluation (Pink Trigger)

"I'd like to give Rosa a one-on-one evaluation. I feel it's only fair to let her tell her side of the story."

She still looked troubled, but I could tell that inside, she was elated. She'd never have the last word in this conference, with all of her siblings trying to either ignore her or use her, but with just me, she'd be able to get her own side of it out. Ordinarily, it might be pretty hard to get the others to agree to this, but with my Pink Trigger, swaying them would be no great effort. "Yes, Mister Player. I hate to ask for special circumstances, but the truth is, my work can't be summed up so simply. It involves a lot of overtime work, long business trips, as well as hand-crafted models-"

"Huh?! Are you trying to make your work sound harder than my husband's, Rosaaa? Knowing everything he does, you're honestly going to say that you have the hardest circumstances of all of ours?! This is a joke!" Eva complained, slapping her fan down upon the table and looking as though she'd probably have slapped Rosa, if she wasn't worried about how it would affect her business fitness evaluation."These sound like the same excuses you use when you apologize for that pathetic child of yours!"

As a lover of Rosa- and because it played well to my current character- I couldn't abide the ****. I stepped to Rosa's side and told Eva she'd said enough. I reminded her I wasn't here to evaluate anyone's personal troubles. I only need to know the promise offered by their business ventures. I reminded them all that was what Kinzo had demanded of me.

Hideyoshi helped quiet his wife down, while Rosa smiled by way of apology. I urged her to please, show me to a place where she'd be happy to explain her business to me fully so I could understand. Very good... I'd made myself a friend, in a way. I doubted she even saw me as Kinzo's tool any more...

What do we do next?
