"everyone... the votes are in!
these were interesting to see.
ready to see the results...?"

"what a surprise... team virago
won effortlessly! congratulations
on this breakthrough, class d! 500
points were added to your totals."

"so we're not going to announce
everyone's scores, as it would be
quite uninteresting and repetitive,
so we're only going to first announce
those with the top 5 scores and then
after... the bottom 5. lastly, we will
follow up with the eliminations."

[ the trainees trembled, mostly those
with low confidence or bad comments
on their last performances. ]

"okay. buckle up! let's reveal the
top five! the fifth place was super
close between a few trainees, but
as you can see, our first place
holder won by a landslide!"

[ the five girls saw their name
and instantly felt their hearts
drop. this wasn't what they
expected at all... ]

"hmm... i see. this is unfortunate.
i'm going to have a hard time
picking only one trainee to save..."

[ the girls visibly shook, holding hands
with each other. even the others who
weren't in the bottom were nervous.
they could barely watch it. ]

"i want to save...

[ everyone held their breath ]

oh chanseok."

[ chanseok let out a deep breath of relief
and joined in a group hug with the eliminated
girls. it was bittersweet for her to hug them
like this. she even felt a little guilty. ]

chanseok: "ah, i was so scared. i'll forever
be thankful to hostess kaori for that. and
seriously, i will work harder than ever
before. you can count on me. thank you."

[ ELIMINATED : HYUNAE, HYEMI,
MINJU, & CHEOLSOO ]

[ the other four girls cried and prepared to
give their final speeches before leaving the show
for good. the mic was passed down the line. ]

minju: "it's unfortunate that my road ends
here, but i hope that everyone else keeps
going to achieve their dreams. thank you!"

hyemi: "it's okay, i was expecting this.
i'm still proud of myself. i'll just have to
work harder to improve. no worries,"

cheolsoo: "thanks for having me on
the show! i knew this would happen
but i'm glad i've already learned a lot
in this short amount of time. bye~"

hyunae: "thank you for having me. i will
work on things so that i can do better."

[ after bowing to the audience and the
judges, the four girls went around and
gave everyone their last hugs, telling
them that they would be cheering them
on from the other side of the tv. then,
it was time for them to walk off the
stage, hand in hand, to the exit. ]

[ camera cut: hostess kaori
"why did i pick chanseok? well, it's
because she's the most hard-working
and capable out of those 5. i don't care
about how popular she is or isn't, i see
potential. she's not ready to leave." ]

"well, there you have it everyone.
episode two, fin! we hope to see
you next time where we'll have a
brand new, exciting mission ready
for the girls! bye for now~!"

[ in the trainee dorms, the rest of
the girls felt saddened by the
eliminations. and maybe a little
bit anxious too. what if it will
be them leaving next time...? ]

xin: that was so sad... it's gonna be
weird when the dorms start to get
emptier and emptier.

dahye: hey, don't frown, xinxin! be
happy that you're still here! let's
do our best... for minju, hyemi,
hyunae, and cheolsoo's sakes!

xin: yeah... you're right. i shouldn't
be so worked up.

chaeri: let's play a game! anyone
down for a round of random play
dance? girl group edition!

joon: ooh count me in, cher!

raehyun: i'll join too! if any of the unnies
ask why we're slacking off, we can just
say that this is dance practice!

chaeri: yup yup! i'll play the music!

mikyong: wait, guys! i have a
question... did any of you eat
the last cookie? whoever did
must be punished!

joyoung: yah! no cookies! minkyung
and i are making a big celebratory dinner
for getting through the first elimination
round! please don't spoil your dinner, guys!

end !
do you guys like little extra dorm
scenes like i just added at the end?
let me know, i might add more!

also, what do you guys think about a
secret voting ballot. i'll make a google
form this time around and everyone will
vote for their favorites and least favorites
separately - that way it's organized and a
fairer vote for, say, smaller accounts!
how does that sound to you guys?
