I think they are talking about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonda_Couple directed by Shinji Sōmai which would translate as "The couple that vanished" no?
Maybe it would have been better to keep the Japanese romanization, like in the other chapters.

@Kirin-kun - Every romanization of that title was inaccurate. The verb in the title means "to leap" or "to fly", and I didn't want to make it sound like "The Girl Who Leapt (through time)". Worse was the listing in IMDB, which was "The Terrible Couple", and had only the word "Couple" in common with the meaning.
From the translation helper / dictionary lookup program I wrote some nine years ago:
Additional thought: With a little stretch of meaning, you could say something like "The Couple That Flew Away", or "The Couple That Flew The Coop."
