Emu
The crowd went all the way to the back too! A lot of them even decided to buy advance tickets for Phoenix Wonderland♪
Rui
Indeed, they did. And as long as we keep this up, our final performances should go swimmingly.
Child
No, I don't wanna go home yet!
I wanna keep playing on the beach!
I wanna keep playing on the beach!
Father
We can't stay here forever.
But if you want to stay that much, we can just leave you here.

Child
No!!
Child
Whoa!
Is that a robot...?
Is that a robot...?
Robo-Nene
The beach is a place that's full of fun and wonderment, like a really exciting show, so it is sad to leave it behind.
Robo-Nene
But in time, that sadness will turn into anticipation and even more wonderful memories the next time you visit.

Hahaha...!
You're funny, Ms. Robot!

Father
Next time, huh...?
Yeah, we should come again next year.
Yeah, we should come again next year.
Child
Yay!
Bye bye, Ms. Robot!
Bye bye, Ms. Robot!

Tsukasa
And how she's been engineered still baffles me... It's as if her AI or machine learning algorithm has figured out how we want others to feel...

Yuka
(Thank goodness I made it in time. Looks like the first few rows are for children only, so this seat should do nicely...)
Narrator
We will now be having a special showing of The Adventures of the Merprince and Little Mermaids.

Little Mermaid
Huh?! W-Wait...!
Didn't I tell you not to barge into my coral reef like that?! I'm busy nap... Getting in some beauty sleep!

Yuka
(So they took the Little Mermaid and turned into a clever little mermaid adventure... It's very easy to pick up too.)
Little Mermaid
Still, seeing what city life, parties, castles and stuff are like might be a little fun...
Yuka
(I used to be the same way. Even now, after I found the spotlight, I decided to go abroad...)
Little Mermaid
Hey, don't forget that we have to keep drinking these potions every hour to keep our legs, so be careful.
Nene
(I exit the stage after some games catch my eye, and lose track of where my brother and sister are in the process.)
Nene
(They get captured by Rui, now the bad guy, and I decide to drink the potion after hearing them scream to turn into Robo-Nene...)
Child's Voice
N-No, stop!
Don't kick it! This robot's a good guy!
Don't kick it! This robot's a good guy!

It'll be fine!

Child A
I-I'm so sorry...!
Nene
You don't have to apologize. You were the one that was trying to stop them, right? Still, what happened here...?
Child A
I started crying after I tripped and fell, but this robot came to help...
Child A
Then those other kids came along and started hitting it for fun...
Child A
But I couldn't stop them! I'm so sorry!
Rui
Oh, this is nothing...
Some connectors just came loose, so just give me a few minutes to reconnect them.

Rui
But the Robo-Nene scene is also coming up. I'll need you to buy me some time while I fix her.

Rui
However, Tsukasa and Emu are captives, so there isn't much they can do in terms of improvising...
Nene
(And Rui's gonna be busy fixing Robo-Nene, so that means I'm the only one that can do anything about this.)
Nene
(But what am I supposed to do?
I'm not very good at ad-libbing like everybody else...)
I'm not very good at ad-libbing like everybody else...)
Nene
(I need to do everything I can to make sure our show makes them all smile and laugh!)
Nene
You're the only one here who can fix her, Rui, and the other two are still on stage, so they have no idea what's going on back here.
