Arimura
*Sigh*
Technical difficulties... Missing forty minutes of footage puts us in a tough situation.

Airi
Me too. I've heard of stuff like this happening, but this is my first time actually being on site as it did...
Haruka
This is the stuff of nightmares to the camera crew since such a simple mistake can cascade into fairly serious problems for the show.

Kuromiya
Thank you all very much for your patience! As you probably just heard, we're having some technical issues...
Kuromiya
To summarize, I'm very sorry, but we'll have to reshoot everything we just did following the break...
MYU
Yes, I had a feeling...
Haruka
Which means we'll have to do MYU's segment all over again, including trying the food.
Yuika
Oh, I'm not so sure about this now...
We're going to sound really phony if we're not careful...

MYU
There's something else that's worrying me...
MYU
The packaging for everything that I brought in has been opened up. How do we make them look like new?
MYU
Worse, we went through most of what we had. They're in our stomachs now.
MYU
So, I'm not sure we can redo my segment... We might want to try shooting something else.
Kuromiya
Yes, I agree.
I was hoping that we could come up with a solution together.

Kuromiya
However, we won't really be able to do anything that requires getting food or souvenirs from elsewhere...
Kuromiya
Which points to a talk segment.
Would it be possible for you to introduce some fabulous destinations...?

Kuromiya
Feel free to talk about all the inns and hotels you like. We can always send some teams over to interview them at a later date.
MYU
...
Okay, I understand.
Okay, I understand.
MYU
I've uploaded a lot of stuff to PicShare, so they might not seem all that new or interesting to our viewers. But I guess we don't have a choice...
Minori
(Right. MYU worked really hard on this segment for the sake of everybody watching...)
Minori
(It'd be awful to see all her hard work go to waste by becoming something incomplete...)
Minori
(We don't have a choice but to change course here, but I feel like there's a better solution out there...)
Minori
(Something that more closely resembles MYU's original segment. Something that the audience will really enjoy...)
Haruka
Why don't you start by telling us?
Your idea could very well give us the hint we need.

Kuromiya
Yes, please tell us.
If your idea is better than the one I just suggested, then we'll go with that instead.

MYU
This station's souvenirs?
Arimura
The gift shop here is open to the public.
Was your plan to introduce the stuff that we made on this show and the merchandise featuring this studio's mascots?

Minori
Yes! I visited just the other day and thought it was really cool how this is the only place where you can get a lot of those things.
Minori
Doing a segment on this station's gift shop seemed really fun, and they already have everything we need.
MYU
...
That could actually work.
That could actually work.
Yuika
I agree.
I feel like that's something MYU's followers could get behind.

MYU
I'm also really interested since I don't actually know what's available in the gift shop!
MYU
So, let's go with Hanasato's idea.
We can call it something like... “Check Out All The Cool Stuff In The Station's Gift Shop!”
We can call it something like... “Check Out All The Cool Stuff In The Station's Gift Shop!”
Kuromiya
Yes, we could get everything ready in no time and start a fun conversation viewers might not be expecting.
Kuromiya
Let's go with her idea...
We'll just need some time to get set up.

Listen, everyone!
We need to be ready to shoot in thirty minutes!

That was amazing, Minori...!
You came up with a wonderful idea in such a short amount of time!

Audience Member's Voice
They said they were just having some technical issues, right? What's taking them so long...?
Audience Member's Voice
Yeah, I hope they resume soon.
My bottom's starting to get a little sore...

Audience Member's Voice
Including the time they took to set up, we've been sitting for like three hours now... I knew that delays were possible, but nothing this long.
Airi
Yeah, and they're being asked to stay in their seats outside of breaks. Those aren't exactly what you'd call comfortable, either...
TV Crew
Excuse me, Mr. Arimura?
The writer just finished making edits to the script. Would you mind taking a look with the producer?

TV Crew
Let's take this opportunity to touch up your makeup, Yuika!
TV Crew
The set's still cluttered from before, so get it ready to start again! Also, cameras, check your positions!
Minori
(Isn't there a way for me to help...?
The crew, the audience, the other guests, anything...)

Th-Thank you so much.
I can't believe you actually went and got them for me.

Wait, how much did you buy?

The audience?
Minori
Also, we figured it'd be more fun for them if they got to have the same things we'll be having during the segment.

MYU
You've got everything covered...
Crew Member
Thank you very much...
But you really didn't have to do all this since it's technically the crew's job.

Minori
Oh, uh... I-I'm sorry for running off like that! I know we still need to redo our makeup and stuff...!
Minori
But it just didn't feel right for us to do nothing while everyone else scrambled to get things ready...
Arimura
Yes, it's important to never forget that...
Arimura
You get into a habit of drawing lines when you're in a studio like this, but the crew and personalities all want the show they're working on to be good. We all want the audience to enjoy themselves.
Arimura
Which is why it's so important to take a step back, forget the lines in the sand and remind ourselves of what the audience is feeling.
Yuika
Yes, I agree...
MYU
I think you just taught us a valuable lesson, Hanasato. Your work ethic is beyond admirable.
Haruka
We still have some time left until we're supposed to resume, so how about we help pass these snacks out to the audience...?
Airi
Great idea! I'm sure they'll enjoy things even more if they get these from us personally.
Arimura
Yes, that would be a fun surprise.
Yuika
Alright, let's do it!
I'll start from the back!

A treat?! For us...?!

We should be shooting again shortly, so we hope you'll enjoy these in the meantime.
