What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

There is a sidequest in Skyloft where you clean Pipit's house during the day and then, at nighttime, you go to the same house to hear a dialogue exchange between Pipit and his mother. After the dialogue is over, the quest is supposed to continue with Pipit exiting the house and talking to Link, but in my case, the game just softlock. Link remains idling and you can still hear the ambient sounds, so it's not a freeze, but it doesn't keep on going even after waiting for minutes.
It seems like this specific issue only happens in my save file for some reason, so i'll provide my save file so you can reproduce it.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1.Run the game and load the save file i provided
2.Once the game is loaded, go to Pipit's house (the first one on the right beyond the bridge)
3.Read through all the dialogue boxes
4.The softlock takes place

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes, 2407-59

Is the issue present in the latest release? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest release.

According to the developer i spoke to, the softlock also happens on the latest stable version and on very old versions as well (like 3.0-xxxxx).

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

I'll provide my savefile in data.bin in a zipped folder so you can reporduce the issue.
This is a video i recorded of the issue: https://youtu.be/0AKrBHgflzI
In this video from the 1:00 timestamp onwards you can see what the expected behavior his: https://youtu.be/ITahPpjfbQ4
