MISUN [ the recruiter ] ; hello~

misun walks out onto the stage,
slightly waving her hand

MISUN [ the recruiter ] ; wow [in awe] so many people came to see me

MISUN [ the recruiter ] ; i'm so honored!

the room that was shown empty
last mission, is now filled with
a complete live audience

MISUN [ the recruiter ] ; [chuckles] who am i kidding, you're all here to see your favorite trainees~

RANDOM FAN ; MISUN UNNIE YOU'RE MY FAVORITE TRAINEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MISUN [ the recruiter ] ; [the volume catches her off guard as well as her attention]

MISUN [ the recruiter ] ; [squints] where'd you get that picture???

said fan is holding a cute banner,
except at one end of it is an
edited picture of misun's
face where she's bald

MISUN [ the recruiter ] ; [coughs] well...

MISUN [ the recruiter ] ; welcome everyone to street casted's first official live performance!

the sound of the crowd is abruptly stopped
while dramatic text takes over the screen

BUT BEFORE THAT...

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT
WHAT OCCURRED WITH THE
GROUPS PRIOR TO THIS STAGE

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [speaking english] it's a shimmy shimmy yah~ type of movement

audrey currently presents the move
she's describing for jeonghoon

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [attempts the move again]

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; good! now you gotta do a sexy pop [demonstrates]

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [copies again]

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [in english] um... audrey? what are these descriptions you're using..?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; what I'm just painting a picture?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; and he's getting it right? he just did the sexy pop!

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [partly korean] do you understand "sexy pop"?

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; eh, so so [hand gestures] i'm a visual learner

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [from the corner] audrey, you should teach in korean

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; but i can't really speak it, so it's easier in english

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; you're not gonna improve if you never speak it

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; she's right and i don't think we've heard you speak korean all day

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [mouth slightly open] uhhhh i'm sure i spoke it at breakfast

audrey at breakfast that morning

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [in korean] i'm eating eggs and toast

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; is it good?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; uh huh!

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [furrows brows] only one sentence ?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [sighs] will you guys let me live if i speak it the rest of the day?

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; the rest of the mission?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; ...you're asking for too much!

and so began audrey's attempt
at helping jeonghoon with the
dance in korean only, which ended
up being a rather quiet practice...

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [chatting in french] i'm sad she didn't come here on her tour

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; i really wanted to see her live!

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; yeah, i was so excited, but it was short lived...

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; true...

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [sudden gasp] have you seen the concert film?!

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [pouts] no i've been too busy

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; same, [grins] but that means we can watch it together!

during this break conversation,
jeonghoon and audrey have
returned with drinks

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; no no no

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; me no english, you no french [points]

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [giggles] okay okay~

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [to ryeon] let's watch it before we leave

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [smiles] it's a date

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [stressed] 'date' ???

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; why am i a 5th wheel???

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [chokes on juice] huh?! how are you a 5th wheel??

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; have you seen the episode 1 clip?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [accidental english] obvious heart eyes at kian

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; audrey, language

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; she's not swearing?

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; no, actual language...

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; sorry, needed to cure his blindness

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; if you need more-

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; will you stop if I tell you a secret?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; what? that you find kian attractive? that's not a secret

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [sighs and shakes his head] no, one about the show

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [sits down] we're seated

and so, a gossip circle began

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [walks in while singing his heart out] But I won't waste my time tryna figure out

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; Why you playing games? What's this all about?~

the group turn their heads in
sync causing kian to stop
after a few more lines

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; why are you guys sitting like that? what did i miss?

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; nothing yet, come sit

okay now that the gossip circle
is complete, let's see what
jeonghoon has to say

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; so, i was exploring the other day when we had a break from filming and i overheard that 3 trainees have individual contracts that are different from all the others

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; which pushed me to do some digging

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; this was totally legal digging right?

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [pauses] of course!

the editing team has inserted
some beautiful clips of jeonghoon
sneaking around to eavesdrop

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; now where was I? ah yes!

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; I found out that said trainees were yerim, jaehyuk, and kei

jeonghoon has paused from dramatic effect

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; KEI?!

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; is it a contract to be evil edited?! [gasps] so scandalous~

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [blinks] who'd put that in their contract?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; i don't know, who'd sign a special contract and still get evil edited???

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; he's being evil edited? why...?

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [wordlessly stares]

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; didn't he make you cry?

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; but that happened so long ago...

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; riri... that just happened like a few weeks ago...

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [coughs] so is it time for me to continue?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; yes!

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; ok, so i was only able to get so many details, but I believe that yerim's contract involves her working as the lawyer of the show

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; ...that doesn't sound true...

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; do i look like a liar?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [some vocal change to be kian] a hot one

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [tries to cover her laugh]

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [lost and confused] oh i didn't know you found jeonghoon hot, audrey

the girls break down laughing

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [sighs] well, i'll just continue anyway

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; jaehyuk's contract seems to include some sort of advertisement clause and a... chicken clause?

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [nods] checks out, I heard misun promised him chicken

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; misun? why?

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; because they're friends?

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; eh?! really?!

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; how do you guys know this?

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; isn't it common knowledge at this point? all the staff talks about it

KIAN HWANG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; we don't always eavesdrop on the staff hoon

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; then what do you do when you're bored?

sleep or zone out obviously

AUDREY STEWART [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; now what about kei's

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; ah well, for him i kept hearing different rumors

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; some said his debut was guaranteed to happen here or in another company's group plan

BAE JEONGHOON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; while others say it's a permanent therapist

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; wow, i wish i would've thought of that

YOON SOOYOUNG [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [concerned] but i'm right here rayray

SEO RYEON [ 2 ☆ K1 ] ; [pats her shoulder] i meant the debut thing riri

speaking of kei... how is group
2 of kitsch functioning?

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; the dance is quite easy; I just think you need to stop thinking so hard and relax a little

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [stressed] KEI! YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE THAT THINKS IT'S EASY

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; SO, STOP TELLING ME WHAT TO THINK

welp the evil editing convo
doesn't seem too out of place now

WHAT HAPPENED TO
GROUP 2 OF KITSCH?

minutes earlier the group
had been entranced in a group
dance practice, one that happened
to contain plenty of errors...
mostly for one particular trainee

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; no no, ann. the part goes like this [demonstrates]

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; retry.

the group does the part
as a whole, kei's eyes
focusing on ann

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; again.

the group goes again

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; again.

and again

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; again.

and again...

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [frustrated sigh] are you even watching everyone else ann?

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; because why has there been no changes to the move?

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; let's have you try the move alone.

and so that's what happens,
ann does the move the same
way she's done it the last 4 times

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; ann, you need to relax or else your movement will continue to be too stiff

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; come on, we don't have the time

this seems to be the moment
the ship hit the iceberg because
ann suddenly breaks down crying

PARK ROSE [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [frowns] ann...

rose goes and envelops her in a hug

PARK ROSE [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; don't cry...

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [barely gets the words out] i'm not

PARK ROSE [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; shh [pats]

PARK ROSE [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; let's go for a walk, hm?

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [slowly nods]

while rose is comforting ann,
there's a tense room left behind

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [bites his lip] was it what i said?

seongmin and suho share
a look with each other

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; i didn't mean to i swear!

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; ah! [starts speaking japanese] it's happened again

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; stupid stupid how can a leader go around making their members cry this is why i wasn't able to debut yada yada

seongmin mouths unknown
words to suho that results in
him leaving the room to
go find rose and ann

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [in japanese] take a breath

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; let's sit for a bit

the two take a seat on the
ground and seongmin waits
for kei to catch his breath
before talking again

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; i won't say you didn't do anything wrong, because you did, but i know we're all just stressed

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; however, you shouldn't be taking it out on us, or more specifically, ann

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; or you'll just end up hurting everyone, including yourself

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [looking down]

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; look at me.

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [reluctantly meets his eye]

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; i need you to agree that'll you'll stop doing that

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; and that you'll stop acting like a toxic mentor of some sort

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [nods]

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [serious] words please

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; i'll stop taking my stress out on everyone else...

maybe seongmin needs
to start teaching elementary

after everyone has been able to
step away, the other three
returned and the group
held a meeting

but somehow, seconds into
said meeting is what led us
to the originally mentioned talk

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; the dance is quite easy; I just think you need to stop thinking so hard and relax a little

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [stressed] KEI! YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE THAT THINKS IT'S EASY

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; SO, STOP TELLING ME WHAT TO THINK

PARK ROSE [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [startled] ann?

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [surprised by the outburst]

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; ah ann, he didn't mean it that way...

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [tears prickling again] but isn't it?

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; doesn't he just think i'm weak for not getting the dance by now?

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; doesn't he just think i'm not good enough to be apart of this team or even on this show

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; because isn't that fact the reason i'm on this team in the first place? that i wasn't good enough to be anywhere else but the leftovers

the room goes cold, because
in the end, isn't she talking
to all the leftovers?

MIN SUHO [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; do you really feel that way?

MIN SUHO [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; but you're skilled in so many ways! like singing or playing the guitar!

MIN SUHO [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; if anything, everyone else was just scared you'd outshine them!

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; yeah, ann! personally, i'm scared about the possibility of directly competing against you!

PARK ROSE [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; and we're all willing to help you with your dancing, or anything you may need

MIN SUHO [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; even if you're stranded on the moon, we'll come help you!

just a little dramatic suho...

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [begins chuckling] i don't think that'll ever happen, but thanks you guys

MOON SEONGMIN [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; you feel better?

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [wipes her eyes one more time] yeah, but... [her eyes drift over to kei]

PARK ROSE [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; hm? [follows her look]

kei is currently keeping his head down

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; kei.

kei gulps at his name and raises
his head while his face looks
like a puppy that's getting a
scolding for pooping in the house

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [blurts] i'm sorry!

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; i was taking my stress out on you earlier and while that isn't an excuse for it, i just really want this performance to be perfect that i was getting ahead of myself and being too harsh [frowns]

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; and i'm sorry for telling you what to think, i just think it'd be good for us all to relax and breathe a little so we can put on a performance that beats the other team

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; you lost me after the "i'm sorry" kei

kei had accidentally started
giving his apology in japanese
because he was talking so fast.

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; but i take it you're genuine and what you said the second time was more just me being stressed still, rather than you meaning to hurt me

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; so, you're forgiven sensei

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; [laughs] actually, i'd rather not call you that again if that means we'll see a repeat of today

KAWAHARA KEI [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; i'd prefer that actually...

ANN KIM [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; ok good! so i'll be calling you keily from now on because i'm getting lily flashbacks <3

MIN SUHO [ 2 ☆ K2 ] ; KEILY?! [dies of laughter]

at the sound of suho's laughter,
the rest of the group follows suit

as the scene of laughter fades
out, a slam is heard as a new
room comes into frame

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; [lets the door slam behind her]

aurae has just stomped into the
practice room where her other
three members were currently
doing solo practice to start the day

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; i haven't seen an ice cream machine be broken this often since i worked at mcdonalds

LEE NAYEON [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; you worked at mcdonalds?

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; yes, yours truly, jeong aurae, employee of the month

[old edits coming in clutch]

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; but that's not the point

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; the point is, why is it so hard for a girl to get just a little bit of ice cream to chill her firey soul?

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; firey soul? you want to talk it out instead? it might work better than the ice cream

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; [stops stretching] oh oh! we can do a therapy circle!

this isn't an unusual idea
from yujun actually

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; sure, but can we still go get ice cream later?

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; sure, as long as you pay

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; but unnie~

anyway, team illusion has formed a therapy
circle in the middle of their practice room

[this is a VERY accurate depiction of it /j ]

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; considering I formed this team, I really believe we have a fighting chance at winning

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; but i think i've gone a smidge [holds her fingers together] overboard

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; [suspicious] why do you say that?

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; well... [nervous laugh] i might've left very passive aggressive notes on everyone's doors?

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; wait- is that why there was a note on my door that said "suck my d**k" this morning?!

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; aurae, that isn't passive aggressive, it's just aggressive and teetering on harassment

LEE NAYEON [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; huh? but my note this morning said "good luck sugar plum"?

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; AURAEEEEE

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; [raises hands] i plead the fifth

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; it's now my time to rant!

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; but i'm not done, yujun

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; you are now

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; can i rant about yujun now?

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; [glares] no because i have to rant about you first!

aurae is silenced

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; [coughs and his eyes soften] AURAEEEEE WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME???

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; i'm such a lovable person and i just want to be your friend

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; but you keep hitting me, when will it stopppp

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; [shocked and disgusted] suck my d**k

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; AURAEEEEE

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; [shakes her head] aurae. don't say that, you're giving the editors more work

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; OMG yerim doesn't love me either, she only cares about the editors

LEE NAYEON [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; yujun, they can't love you because they used all their love on me! the favorite child~!

JI YUJUN [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; YOU ARE SO NOT THE FAVORITE CHILD!

yujun and nayeon have suddenly
entered a... child off???

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; when were we assigned as parents?

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; last mission i believe

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; but i think you should focus on why these two crackheads are our children

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; are you saying i picked the wrong people?

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; no, just that you should acknowledge which parent influenced them to be crackheads

JEONG AURAE [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; HEY! they were already like that when they arrived!

SEOL YERIM [ 2 ☆ ILLUSION ] ; hm [shrugs] i wouldn't know

we'll conclude this "therapy circle"
there and stumble on over to
a different practice room

WHEN WE COME BACK!

a/n

hello, we have a chapter! i was
initially writing this slowly until
the beginning of jeonghoon's tea
session where i binge wrote the
rest today. i never edit these
because i'm lazy, so if some
things seem off don't mind
it and just enjoy!

i also wanted to give a general outline
of sorts for the episode, so here it is:
part two will consist of scenes of
the sugar rush teams with a special
guest 😉 and begin the mentor
evaluation. there will be a voting
form at the end of said chapter to
help decide the star winners! then
part 3 will finish off the evaluation
and include some additional group
scenes or announce the evaluation
results. lastly, the stages will begin
in part 4 + some group scenes.
we'll see if there's a 5th part in the
future or not! Whichever part is
last will include the last voting
before the next elimination.
