Instead of trying to get Team Hiragi back for their production, Hoshitani, Ageha, and Kitahara ask the Kao Council to join them in performing in Opening Ceremony. Sadly, however, their bold request is completely rejected. Hoshitani and the others refuse to give up and come up with a crazy gamble to try and break the deadlock. Meanwhile, Irinatsu has been tasked with composing the music for Opening Ceremony, but has been unable to find any inspiration and the song remains unfinished. Feeling the pressure from Fuyusawa, Irinatsu finds a distraction in Hoshitani and the others.
Sitting here wallowing in self-pity 
is the ultimate waste of time.
Dass du hier in deinem
Selbstmitleid badest, hilft niemandem.
En vez de perder el tiempo lamentándote.
En vez de perder el tiempo lamentándote.
Végéter, écrasé par tes émotions,
Non posso credere 
che te ne stai seduto a piangerti addosso.
Ficar aqui tendo pena de si mesmo
é uma grande perda de tempo.
