| 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 theatre 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 | All right, roll the camera. |
| Reporter | Okay! Today we came to the practice room of MANKAI Company, an old theatre 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 | All right, 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... |
