Sakuya Good morning! Tsuzuru Morning. Citron Morning. Itaru Morning. Masumi ..... Sakyo ..... Sakuya !? Tsuzuru Oi, that guy... Sakuya He's that debt collector, right. Why is he here...? Citron Call him, Tsuzuru. Tsuzuru No! Masumi, do it. Masumi .... Tsuzuru Don't ignore me! Itaru Sum-mon Di-rec-tor☆ Izumi Morning, guys—. Tsuzuru You're amazing, Itaru-san. Sakyo .... Izumi !! What's your business here? We will be performing the play this month as promised. Sakyo Have the tickets for the final performance sold out yet? Izumi That, That is——. Sakyo You fail even if there's only one empty seat. Izumi I get it already! Sakyo Hmph. Good, then. Sakuya That guy only came here to say that. Tsuzuru He has a bad personality. Masumi Annoying. Itaru Have we not sold all the tickets for our final performance? Izumi We sold more than the other days, but... Tsuzuru It's tough. Sakuya Is there another way for us to sell the tickets? Citron What if we include a handshake ticket as a bonus? Izumi It'd be effective if we already have fans... Itaru We just started, so we're not that popular yet. Izumi Uggh... Kazunari Good workie—! Tsuzuru Huh? What are you doing here, Miyoshi-san? Kazunari I'm here to support you guys, yeah? I wonder how you're feeling right now—. Tsuzuru Is that so.... Kazunari Huh, the atmosphere is kinda gloomy here? Tsuzuru The tickets are not selling as well as we thought, so we're thinking about how to advertise... Kazunari For real? The theater will be destroyed if the tickets are not selling, right? That's really bad. Tsuzuru That's why, now that you know our situation, it's not the time for Miyoshi-san to——. Kazunari Ah! I have an idea! TV! Isn't it good if you appear on TV? Izumi TV? But it's not easy to do that, you know? Kazunari Ah, not at all! I know someone! Izumi You have an acquaintance who works at a TV station....? Kazunari I'm going to call them. Bye, good luck! Izumi Ah, wait——. He came and went so suddenly. Tsuzuru He's always like that. Masumi He's shady. Izumi Hmm, but it'd be really good if we can appear on TV. Well then, let's take an hour break——. ??? Excuse me! Izumi ?? ??? Good afternoon. I'll be in your care today. Izumi Who are you??? Sakuya Camera? Tsuzuru What is happening? Anzai My name is Anzai, the director for Velvet TV. We came here for "The Show" coverage——. Izumi Coverage!? TV Station!? Anzai Have you not been informed? Izumi No... Anzai That's weird. We've already contacted the manager... Tsuzuru I bet he forgot about it... Izumi He forgot it... Sakuya But if they came here for TV coverage, then Kazunari-san did contact his acquaintance. Itaru That's surprising. I didn't expect it at all. Tsuzuru That guy's parents know a lot of people. Itaru Parents' connection, huh. Anzai Can I do the coverage, then? Izumi Of course! Please take care of us! Anzai Alright, roll the camera. Reporter Okay! Today we came to the practice room of MANKAI Company, an old theater company that staged a big brilliant comeback. First, we'll be interviewing the president as well as director Tachibana-san. The members for this performance are all new members, right? Izumi Yes. We built the play with the new members. Reporter I heard that the play is an arranged version of Romeo and Juliet. Would you like to share the highlights of it? Izumi It's a friendship story between a male Juliet and Romeo. Please come and watch it. Reporter Thank you. Next, we'd like to continue interviewing the cast of the play. First up are the main and co-protagonists, Sakuya Sakuma-kun and Masumi Usui-kun. Sakuya P-p-p-p-p-p-please take care of me! Izumi (He's stiff.) Masumi Hello. Reporter This time, your friendship is the main highlight here. Do you think that your breathing patterns are already perfectly in sync? Sakuya Of-of-of-of of course! Right, Masumi-kun!? Masumi ...Not really. Sakuya Eeeeh!? Reporter Ahaha. Your dialogue is perfect. We heard that the play script was written by Mercutio's actor, Tsuzuru Minagi-san——. Tsuzuru ——. Reporter Tsuzuru-san? Tsuzuru Ah, yes. I wro, I wrot——I wrote it. Izumi (Tsuzuru-kun is super nervous.) Reporter Is there any difficulty that you come across as an actor and the playwright? Tsuzuru We, well——I was given a short time to write the script, so it was a little bit hard, but it was fun and worth it. Reporter I see, so that made you feel motivated. Next is Tybalt's actor, Itaru Chigasaki-san. Itaru I'll be in your care. Reporter Whoah, you're handsome—! Itaru Haha, thank you. I think girls will enjoy our performance a lot since the cast is all men. Please come and watch it. Izumi (How neat, Itaru-san...! I didn't even think about our final performance....) Reporter Next is——ughh, the Father's actor, Citron-san? Citron Yes. Sakuya Why do you cover your face with a mask, Citron-san? Tsuzuru Since when!? Citron I can't appear on TV without wearing makeup. Tsuzuru Are you a girl!? Reporter Is the Father's role like this? Tsuzuru It doesn't have anything to do with his role! Anzai Alright, that's a wrap. Thank you for today. I'll be in your care again if anything happens. Izumi Me too! Reporter Good luck on your performance. Izumi Thank you! Sakuya Haa—, I was nervous... Tsuzuru I didn't even know what I said. Citron Somehow, I feel more suffocated than usual. Tsuzuru Isn't that because of your mask!? Itaru It'd be good if our appearance shows some effect. Izumi You're right. I hope we can sell more tickets...
