    I'm fine without that thing!

    "That thing"?

    I am your producer, actually.

    Give me a reward, then.
[09:18] Producer
    What?
[09:19] Risa
    I promise I'll win the audition,
    so buy me a reward.
[09:23] Risa
    It's okay, right?
[09:26] Producer
    Sure. If that'll help
    you try hard, of course.
[09:29] Risa
    Okay! It's a promise!
[09:31] ---
    Matoba-san's Audition Plan
SIGN    ★First, introduce yourself cheerfully!
     It's basic, but introductions are IMPORTANT!(Don't forget to smile)
    Talk about what you're good at and what you like
    with a cheerful attitude.
     Hearing somebody who's enjoying what they're
    talking about is fun, and draws the listener in.
     °If they ask about your lack of acting experience,
    answer by saying how hard you'll work and about
    the freshness you'll bring to the role.
     (In a lot of cases, auditions are to find girls like that)
     <- So you don't need to try and lie.
[09:39] Risa
    I'm going to win, no matter what!

[10:03] Girl
    Okay!
[10:07] Risa
    It went well.
[10:08] Risa
    The judges were impressed with my cuteness,
    and how I answered the questions.
[10:12] Producer
    I-I see...
[10:14] Risa

    I think I didn't do enough
    research for the audition.
[11:07] Producer
    I'm sorry.
[11:08] Risa
    Why are you apologizing?
[11:10] Risa
    This is my problem!

[11:14] Risa
    I was so sure I'd gotten the part.

    Matoba-san.
[11:21] Risa
    What?
[11:22] Producer
    They actually contacted me.

    Of course I'll do it!

    You're amazing, Risa-chan!

    I'm not amazing at all.

    Oh, Matoba-san.
[12:07] Producer
    What do you want for your reward?
[12:12] Risa
    I don't need one.
[12:14] Producer
    But I promised...
[12:16] Producer
    And you worked really hard!
[12:18] Producer
    So...
[12:20] Risa
    Shut up.
[12:22] Risa
    I said I don't need it.
[12:27] Producer
    Jeez!
[12:30] Sister
    That sounds rough.
[12:31] Producer
    It's not funny!
[12:33] Sister
    She probably thinks you're a wimp.
[12:36] Sister
    You need to put her in her
    place once in a while.
[12:38] Producer
    You think so, too?
[12:39] Sister
    Yeah. You're going too easy
    on her 'cause she's a kid.
[12:43] Producer
    But she's somebody else's daughter.
[12:46] Producer
    And... she's working really hard.
[12:49] Sister
    It's a tough problem.
[12:51] Sister
    They say you can't scold
    them too much these days.
[12:55] Producer
    They do?
[12:56] Sister
    Yeah.
[12:57] Sister
    But it's not okay to not
    scold them at all, either.
[13:00] Producer
    Which is it?
[13:02] Sister
    Well, what's probably important is
    to see her as an individual person.
[13:08] Sister
    There are all types of kids, after all.
[13:10] Producer
    You mean that there's a lot of
    things that can be bothering a kid?
[13:14] Sister
    Think about it yourself, all right?
[13:17] Sister
    You're not a baby, are you?
[13:24] Producer
    Yeah.
[13:26] Producer
    I'll try talking to her again.

    Yeah. Good luck.
