"welcome back everyone! i've gotten
some feedback from the mentors on
their special training day, and i'm really
interested in seeing these performances
today! we've sure got a lot of them! so
grab some popcorn, relax, and watch on!
today, let's actually start with class f
and work our way up to the top!"

[ there was murmuring as the audience
waited an extra long time for class f to
enter the stage. ]

"uh... i just got a word from backstage.
there's been a slight incident with class
f, but don't worry! they'll come on later.
we're gonna start with the new class x
then. let's welcome them on the stage!"

baekhyun: wow... i'm so impressed.
a high vocal song like this worked
out amazing for you guys. go class x!

suga: i could listen to them for days!
however, i did find lots of mistakes in
the choreo that could've easily been
fixed by monitoring your practices.
be a little bit more careful next time.

[ camera cut: woo chaeri
"i'm honored to be my team's leader!
i know it was my first time leading,

effort. your vocals and rap, however,
were like nails on a chalk board to me.
work on your stability before your next
performance, please.

this, mistakes or not! go raindrops!

rosé: i liked it as well. this song
really showed the best side of you
girls. some of you, though, i had
really high expectations for... but i
was let down. you say you're
great, but are you yet?

"team c... come on out!"

"what? ...they didn't even show
up? what kind of trainees..?"

"everyone... please don't panic.
we've just been informed that
team c has forfeited and will not
be performing their song 'bbyong'
tonight! they didn't prepare at all
other than the special workshops.
this is really disappointing. all
members of team c automatically
have negative totals from this."

[ camera cut: ryu hanbyeol
"i wonder what's wrong with team
c? they're foolish for just giving up
like that! and not even practicing..." ]

[ camera cut: seo choonhee
"i knew this would happen... after
my team's practice, we all went
back to the dorms and that team
was already home, relaxing and
playing games. they hadn't done
anything all day!" ]

[ camera cut: tamayoka nao
"i mean, if they get eliminated,
don't they deserve it the most?
i bet they'll be on the news for
such a thing like this, geez..." ]

TEAM C — FORFEIT !

of course the dance trainees han
and changyin were rught, but the
rest seemed off balance or late to
formations... it comes across as lazy.

performed well despite your
class. i just wanna see less
mistakes and more power.

taeyong: it wasn't good enough
to me, but all things considered,
i guess that was your best... the
song was really catchy though,
and i quite enjoyed your unique
voices combined with this song.

"wow, what a show! let's get on
to voting. i'm so curious to see
who the fan favorites are now
that the classes have changed!"

"the mentors have encouraged
the girls to work harder with
more passion as well as work
on the skills they lack in. how-
ever, the judges have agreed
that trainees like xin, sooyeon,
yeseul, harin and quite frankly,
all of class c, lack too much or
don't stand out enough."

"good luck to all the girls, and
remember to vote wisely...!
remember: there will be five
eliminations tonight."

voting closes MAY 24 6:00 pm (ET)

i enjoyed the last voting process as
it was really organized and fair! let's
do it again! i'll send everyone a form.
let me know if you didn't get one.

class c... i'm disappointed. it seems
like everyone just gave up and left
the discussions. even after i gave
you guys to send it in despite it
being late, nothing happened. i
really don't want this to happen
again because i'm frustrated.
