"I don't know... Some of them have probably paid so much that they want to stay and get their money's worth."
Very good kitty"Oh, great suffering Zarquon..."
"Well, let us know when it's over!"
(Chey and Ford then go into the nearest dressing room to make out for the third time today.)
Puma panics and runs to the intercom.
"Uh... uh! I think that's enough! Mr. Sunflora, we've got to let the others perform too. I mean, uh, we're very aware of your talent now."
Very good kitty(Some of the audience starts booing and jeering at Sonny.)
"Ahhh, ya just don't know real music if it hits ya in the face! Cut the music!"
(The music stops.)
"Alright, give it up for our first act Puma and Maria..."
(Sonny then goes backstage irritated.)
Puma walks on to the stage nervously. Maria strides in.
The song "The Carnival Is Over" by The Seekers comes on as Puma and Maria come out in their Commedia dell'arte costumes. They pull out the heart shapes and start juggling.
As they go on, Puma has a sinking feeling as he hears the lyrics.
For the joys of love are fleeting / For Pierrot and Columbine.
"Crap! I forgot this song was about love! Oh no, what is she gonna think?"
Puma looks over and realizes that Maria is smiling and having fun. He calms down.
"Okay... it's fine."
As the song goes on longer, they start juggling more and more hearts, and at the end, they catch them all. Puma is utterly exhausted as he and Maria bow.
Very good kitty(Chey and Ford, who had gotten out of the dressing room after Sonny had left the stage, applauded.)
"That was really sweet!"
(Meanwhile at the judge's table, Clone!Robin holds up a sign with the number 9 on it.)
"JUST KISS ALREADY!" Four shouts from the background.
Here I'm alive, Everything all of the time...Here I'm alive, Everything all of the time...Puma and Maria bow once more before leaving the stage.
"Well," says Puma, "I'm both happy that our performance went well, and extremely embarrassed."
Maria laughs in mime and shrugs.
"'Maybe?' What do you mean by that?"
They are now backstage.
Very good kittyBob looks like he's thinking really hard for a moment.
"I think I've got an idea for my act..."
Bob pulls out the phone he hasn't used for like two or three episodes and makes a call.
"Hey, it's me."
A familiar, happy sounding voice answers, but what it says can't be made out.
"Yes, I'm glad to talk to you as well. You heard about the talent show, right?"
The voice responds.
"Yes, well I'm in it, and I think my act could use your... skills."
The voice responds again.
"Great. Meet me backstage."
The voice responds, and Bob hangs up.
"Shouldn't take too long."
S-O-N-I-C, THAT'S ME!!!"Actually, we do have something planned..."
"My light shall be the moon, and my path the ocean, my guide the morning star as I sail home to you....""Oh, good!" Puma is still steaming with embarrassment from some people's reaction to his performance, and just wants the show to go on.
Very good kitty"Far out then! I'll be back..."
(Sonny then goes back out on stage, cue boos.)
"Ahhh, shuddup! Alright, now it's time for our next act. Put ya hands together for Junon and Medusa-I mean Marcia!"
(The audience then applauds as Sonny returns backstage.)
Medusa is in the audience. She glares at the MC for that remark. Anyways, Junon and Marcia do the boss fight again, but this time Junon is dressed up as Kiryu from the Yakuza series. The match ends with Junon doing an RKO on Marcia. A gigantic explosion erupts in the arena.
