Toya

Listen

Excuse me, my name is Aoyagi. I'm here to fill in for Tenma as an extra today...
2

Hall Staff

Ah, I received a call about you just a little while ago. Everyone else is over in the waiting room that way.
3

Hall Staff

Your costume should be ready too. Please head in that direction once you've changed.
4

Toya

Listen

Uh, yes. Thank you.
5

Toya

Listen

(They even have a costume for me. It's probably standard procedure, but everything seems so well put together.)
6

Toya

Listen

(I'm glad I was able to choose something that fit...)

7

Toya

Listen

(But there's twenty of us. I'm really not sure what I should be doing...)
8

Toya

Listen

(I have to think that something important is happening considering how many of us there are.)
9

Toya

Listen

(I need to do everything I can today for Tsukasa's sake.)
10

Toya

Listen

I already checked the email that Tsukasa forwarded to me but...
11

Toya

Listen

It said, “The director will give you more details the day of...”
12

Toya

Listen

I don't think I've seen anyone like that yet...
13

Hall Staff

Extras, we appreciate your patience.
14

Toya

Listen

Ah...
15

Hall Staff

We have just received word from the on-site director and it appears that they will be running late due to a traffic accident.
16

Hall Staff

For now, we will be explaining what you will be doing for today.
17

Toya

Listen

(I see. I'm glad they're doing this since I still wasn't entirely sure what to do based on what that email said.)
18

Hall Staff

To start, this is supposed to be a surprise by the bride for the groom, so be sure not to tell the other guests about this.
19

Hall Staff

As you were previously informed, you will be performing as a flash mob during this ceremony.
20

Toya

Listen

A flash mob...?
21

Toya

Listen

(When seemingly random people suddenly begin dancing on the street? I've seen couples use them to propose to each other on TV before...)
22

Toya

Listen

(But during the actual ceremony? I wonder what we'll be doing...)
23

Hall Staff

We will be proceeding as follows...
24

Hall Staff

First, you will be placed among the actual wedding guests during the outdoor portion of the ceremony.
25

Hall Staff

At the end of this part, the minister for the wedding, the groom's friend, will say the standard “to love and to cherish, till death do us part” bit.
26

Hall Staff

The groom will say, “I do,” and just as the bride is about to say the same, a man will exclaim, “Wait!”
27

Toya

Listen

Wait...?
28

Hall Staff

He'll run up to the altar and spontaneously propose to the bride by shouting, “I love you! Let's get married!”
29

Toya

Listen

I see...
30

Hall Staff

The bride will then choose her groom by saying, “He is the only one for me.” Everybody else congratulates them with a hearty “mazel tov”...
31

Hall Staff

And the music will start as the cue to begin dancing to cap off this part of the celebration.
32

Toya

Listen

...
33

Toya

Listen

(It's interesting, but I'm still a little fuzzy on a few parts.)
34

Toya

Listen

(I would think that a random stranger suddenly deciding to propose to the bride would cause the entire place to go completely silent...)
35

Toya

Listen

(Or maybe that's the part I should be trying to enjoy. I'm not entirely sure...)
36

Hall Staff

I understand that you have already been given the dance routine and song that will be used, so please feel free to practice on your own in the meantime.
37

Hall Staff

Further details will be explained to you later by the director, so we ask that you please remain patient.

38

Extras

It's not as bad as I thought it would be.
39

Extras

Yeah. I actually just signed up with this agency, so I was a little nervous coming into this.
40

Extras

Really? It's only my second time here. I'm hoping that I'll be cast alongside famous celebrities someday.
41

Toya

Listen

(I assumed that professional dancers or people with acting experience like Tsukasa would be gathered here, but I guess that's not really the case...)
42

Toya

Listen

(Based on that email, we're supposed to be singing, dancing and doing a little bit of acting...)
43

Toya

Listen

(I have the song and dance routine too, so I should be able to learn it all by the time everything starts.)
44

Toya

Listen

(Alright, time to practice...)
45

Male Extra

Um... Would you like to practice with us? We thought that it might be good to try singing together too.
46

Toya

Listen

Yes, I'd like that too.
I guess around here will...
47

Condescending Extra

Hey, you're getting in the way! Can't you take that somewhere else? The dance team needs way more space than you guys!
48

Male Extra

Wah!

Sound Effect: Play

49

Toya

Listen

Are you alright?
Did you just bump into them...?
50

Male Extra

Yeah, I'm okay... We just grazed shoulders is all...
51

Condescending Extra

Alright! Time for the dance team to start practicing!
52

Hall Staff's Voice

What?! Really?!
No, what do we do...?!
53

Toya

Listen

Hm?
54

Male Extra

The staff look concerned.
What do you think's going on?
55

Toya

Listen

I'll go take a look...

Sound Effect: Play

56

Hall Staff

You want us to take the reins...?! You really can't send anyone else...?! But...!
57

Toya

Listen

Um, is something the matter?
58

Hall Staff

Uh, well... Apparently, the director's car was just rear-ended...

BGM: --:-- / --:-- Play

59

Toya

Listen

Rear-ended?
60

Hall Staff

Nobody was hurt, but it sounded like the car isn't starting and they got into an argument with the people from the other car, so they won't be able to make it in time.
61

Hall Staff

But the ceremony starts in three hours and there's no way we'll be able to find someone to replace them in that time...
62

Hall Staff

At this rate, we'll have to cancel everything and I was about the tell the bride...
63

Hall Staff

I'm so sorry. Please, just give us some time...
64

Toya

Listen

...

Sound Effect: Play

65

Extras

So everything's gonna be cancelled?
66

Extras

That's too bad, but we don't really have a choice. We can't do much without a director.
67

Toya

Listen

Um...
68

Toya

Listen

Isn't there anything we can do on our own? Or is there anyone here that could serve as a director...?
69

Condescending Extra

You serious? Directing isn't easy, kid. Especially when this many people are involved...
70

Condescending Extra

This won't get off the ground unless you have everything sorted from start to finish. Think about it a little.
71

Toya

Listen

Yes, I see...
Please excuse my ignorance.
72

Len

Listen

<Wow! This is amazing!
So this is what a wedding hall is like? It's so beautiful!>

73

Rui

Listen

Yes, it is.
The venue itself is designed to be naturally photogenic and quite a sight to behold, no?
74

Rui

Listen

Hm? Oh, is that...?
Len, would you mind hiding for a moment?
75

Len

Listen

<Yeah, no problem!>
76

Toya

Listen

(*Sigh*...
I managed to get out of there...)
77

Toya

Listen

(Is everything actually going to be cancelled just like that?)
78

Toya

Listen

If only Tsukasa were here. He might've been able to do something about this...
79

Rui's Voice

Listen

A man walking away as he leaves a wedding venue in the distance...
80

Rui's Voice

Listen

Very nice. I can see it already...
81

Toya

Listen

This voice...
82

Rui

Listen

Hello. How is your first show going, Aoyagi?
83

Toya

Listen

Kamishiro...?
