wow, looks like we had some FALSE spoilers in there!
Anyway, i agree with Haya, it's really weird that elle gets freaked out about being alone with Kiri...guess she assumes if a guy was going to do something he'd do it when no one else was around? Still makes no sense. If you ask me, the mountain of pointless text and that page are probably just poor komi-sensei's trying to fill in 19 pages that are required every week. Likely he doesn't have a enough detailed story to allow too much happen in one chapter yet....
