Tsukasa

Listen

Okay, we have a plan for our show!
2

Emu

Listen

Next, we need to get everyone else to come and help us!
3

Nene

Listen

Yeah, but do you think they'll really be willing to? I mean, they all have their own shows to deal with...
4

Rui

Listen

That is a concern. It may not be entirely realistic since they've all been working so hard to do well in this contest...
5

Rui

Listen

I have to think that the ones in contention to win will especially be unwilling to just toss everything aside on the final day.
6

Tsukasa

Listen

...
7

Tsukasa

Listen

None of that matters right now!
We have to act! All of you, let's go!!
8

Emu & Nene

Listen

Right!
By the merry-go-round

Staff A

No, we won't be able to help you...
10

Staff A

This merry-go-round's going to be demolished. That's just that and I doubt your show will be able to change that...
11

Nene

Listen

B-But... Well...
12

Tsukasa

Listen

But if this show manages to get enough guests to come to the park, you might be able to save this merry-go-round. That's why we...
13

Staff A

This came from the very top. There's nothing any of us can do about it...
14

Staff A

I'm sorry, we're not helping.
15

Nene

Listen

Oh...
Hero Stage
16

Staff B

No, that won't be possible.
17

Emu

Listen

What?! B-But why?!
18

Staff B

Why? Because we'd pretty much be disobeying a direct order, right?
19

Staff B

If we do this, won't we be risking having our pay docked or just getting fired outright?
20

Staff B

I mean, yeah, I like the way things used to be a lot more...
21

Emu

Listen

Then please help us! I beg you! If anything like what you said does happen, I'll do everything I can to stop them!
22

Rui

Listen

If you believe that this plan has even the slightest chance of succeeding, won't you consider it?
23

Staff B

One show changing all of this? No way...
24

Staff B

Sorry, you'll have to find someone else.

Emu! Rui!
How'd things go on your end?
28

Emu

Listen

*Sob*... No one wants to help us...
How about you, Tsukasa?
29

Tsukasa

Listen

None of the four we asked were willing to help...
30

Rui

Listen

I see...
I knew going in, but this is going to be quite a challenge...
31

Nene

Listen

Is this really even possible...?
32

Tsukasa

Listen

No, we don't know yet...!
We have to ask everyone at every stage and attraction first!
33

Emu

Listen

Yeah! So our next stop is...
34

Tsukasa

Listen

There...
I was hoping to have more of a backing before asking them for help...
35

Tsukasa

Listen

But we don't have a choice!
Let's go!

Tsukasa

Tanomo!!
37

Nene

Listen

Stop, this isn't a dojo...
38

Emu

Listen

Oh, right!
I almost did the same thing!
39

Rui

Listen

But we need that sort of energy right now.
40

Emu

Listen

Hello, Phoenix Stage troupe!
41

Cast

Hm? Who's there?
42

Cast

Oh, is that...
43

???

Listen

Ah, so you've finally come...
Wonderlands×Showtime...
44

Nene

Listen

That voice...
45

Tsukasa

Listen

Sakurako Seiryuin...!
46

Sakurako

Listen

The very same. It's been some time since we last met. I've been waiting for you...!
47

Tsukasa

Listen

Heh. The last time we met was during our Christmas show, no, Sakurako Seiryuin?! Hm...?
48

Tsukasa

Listen

Hold on. What did you mean by you've been waiting for us? Answer me, Sakurako Seiryuin!
49

Sakurako

Listen

Would you please stop calling me by my full name...?
50

Sakurako

Listen

Yes, it's a lovely and compelling name that just simply rolls off your tongue but...
51

Nene

Listen

But why were you waiting for us?
52

Sakurako

Listen

Ah, excuse me. Am I to understand that you've been trying to gather everybody in this park in an effort to put on an incredibly extravagant show?
53

Nene

Listen

Huh...?!
How did you know...?!
54

Sakurako

Listen

I happened to overhear your conversation while you were asking one of the other troupes to help.
55

Nene

Listen

What? You were eavesdropping?
56

Sakurako

Listen

What?! No, I was there by pure coincidence...!
57

Sakurako

Listen

Anyways, I cannot let this pass without interjecting first myself...
58

Sakurako

Listen

This Show Contest is being held to attract more guests to this park. Why in the world are you trying to ruin that by essentially biting the hand that's feeding you?
59

Tsukasa

Listen

Um, well...

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

60

Emu

Listen

We know that what we're trying to do might not actually be possible!
61

Emu

Listen

And we understand that it'll probably be a lot easier to get more people to come to the park if a big company from overseas helps us...
62

Emu

Listen

But...!
That'll make everyone that loves and cherishes Phoenix Wonderland really, really sad...!
63

Emu

Listen

Phoenix Wonderland isn't just a place for young people. It needs to be a place that can make everyone smile!
64

Emu

Listen

That's why I want lots and lots of people to come here, and make it so they can all smile and laugh together!
65

Emu

Listen

It doesn't matter how impossible it might sound. If there's still a way to make both of those things happen, I'm gonna try it!
66

Sakurako

Listen

...
67

Emu

Listen

So please! I beg you!
Help us do this show!
68

Sakurako

Listen

You really think I'll agree to something like this just because you're wearing your heart on your sleeve...?
69

Emu

Listen

...!
70

Sakurako

Listen

You're in the running to win this contest too, no? Are you sure about letting that chance just slip by?
71

Tsukasa

Listen

Well...
72

Emu

Listen

Oh...

73

Emu

Listen

You still want to win the contest, don't you, Tsukasa...?
74

Tsukasa

Listen

Hnng...
No, that's okay...
75

Tsukasa

Listen

However, I would be lying if I said that I don't mind not winning despite how much work we put into it...
76

Emu

Listen

(He worked so hard for this contest. Maybe I should...)
77

Tsukasa

Listen

We'll just have to find another opportunity...!
78

Emu

Listen

What...?
79

Tsukasa

Listen

Truth be told, winning this contest was my goal. If this problem didn't rear its ugly head, I would be doing everything I can to win right now.
80

Tsukasa

Listen

But we have something much more important to deal with!
81

Tsukasa

Listen

We have to save the Phoenix Wonderland that made so many people smile and laugh!

82

Tsukasa

Listen

As cast members of this park, we must always make sure that never goes away!
83

Tsukasa

Listen

To hell with this contest! There's something much greater at stake right now! We need to act!
84

Emu

Listen

Tsukasa...!
85

Tsukasa

Listen

Sakurako Seiryuin, this same feeling must dwell somewhere within that heart of yours! There is a part of you that knows this!
86

Sakurako

Listen

...
87

Sakurako

Listen

I'd rather not be lumped together with someone as obnoxious as you are...
88

Tsukasa

Listen

W-What?!
89

Sakurako

Listen

However, I do understand where you're coming from...
90

Nene

Listen

You do?
91

Sakurako

Listen

If it's my aid you seek, then you must present me a detailed plan first...
92

Sakurako

Listen

Regardless of my ultimate decision, that will be our first step.
93

Tsukasa

Listen

Huh? Does that mean...?
94

Rui

Listen

You'll listen to our plan?

Three cheers for Seiryuin!

To start, we'll need you to read this. We can further discuss any details after that.

Fine...

Wait, you're serious about this...?

101

Cast

It'd be amazing to actually pull this off but...
102

Sakurako

Listen

(They actually plan on doing this show...?!)
103

Sakurako

Listen

(I've never heard of any other parks doing anything like this. If we do somehow pull this off, it's sure to go viral, but this is beyond just challenging...)
104

Sakurako

Listen

(Yet... I can't get rid of this tingling sensation...)
105

Rui

Listen

What do you think, Seiryuin?
106

Sakurako

Listen

*Sigh*...
That's a rhetorical question, right?
107

Rui

Listen

We're rather proud of this plan so...
108

Sakurako

Listen

*Sigh*...
109

Emu

Listen

Please!
Help us put on this show!
110

Nene

Listen

Please...!
111

Rui

Listen

Please, join us. If you do, this show will definitely have a much greater chance at succeeding.

Tsukasa

Listen

Help us, Seiryuin.
You're our only hope!
