Honestly, we really need to get what few neurons we have working, say our eight young men.

" Jeonghan, you have a brain." Says Soonyoung

" I'm not taking any more discharges."

" But how..." Says Jihoon

" Get your neurons firing." Says Wonwoo

" But I don't have any." Says Seokmin

" Seok ! "

The boys start laughing, until the elevator goes up only to come down all at once. Chan clings to Seungcheol, completely frightened...

" Chan.."

" I'm so scared hyung. I'm afraid of losing you, before it's too late I'd like you to know that I really love you, you're not just a friend to me."

" We'll make it, I promise. We'll get through this and I love you too Chan, sorry it took me a while to figure it out but I really do love you. I refuse to lose you too."

Jeonghan looks tenderly at his two friends, not a good place for a declaration but good. Then he turns his gaze back to the electric wires and says to himself, too bad, if he gets a shock, it'll only be for his friends.

" Han, what are you doing ? " Asks Minghao.

" I may have found a solution. " replies the blond

That's false, totally false. Jeonghan has no idea what he's doing, but nothing ventured, nothing gained. So, the boy moves slowly towards the wires...

" Hannie-ya ! "

" What's the matter ? "

" Don't do that, if you have no idea what you're doing ! "

" But we've got to get the hell out of here."

" Don't get upset."

" It's driving me crazy! "

Jeonghan is so exhausted and lacking in composure, he slams into the walls of the elevator, it starts moving up and down....

The boys start screaming, Jeonghan shakes his head and looks at his friends, completely panicked, then raises his head towards the "roof" of the elevator, where he sees a trapdoor...

" Guys, look up."

" A trapdoor ? " Jun asks.

" That's the solution, I'm sure of it ! "

" But how do we get there ? " Vernon asks

" Watch and learn. "

Jeonghan takes off her sweater, then her T-shirt and ties them together....

" Give me your tops." Says Jeonghan

" A striptease, are you sure ? " Asks Seungcheol

" Shut up Cheol, pass your clothes."

" And the hyung ? "

" In your dreams."

" Ah."

Jeonghan smiles at his friend and Seungcheol, sticks out his tongue, like a five-year-old but ends up taking off his clothes. Soonyoung, Vernon, Mingyu and Minghao do the same...

" And now what ? " asks Jihoon.

" See those rings ? "

" How the fuck can you be so smart ? " Jun asks

" I'm analyzing the room, it's quite simple."

" What are you planning to do ? "

[ 10 minutes ]

Jeonghan sighs, he doesn't have too much time to explain, he starts by attaching, a first sleeve to the first ring and climbs the wall, thanks to stable supports, his friends are impressed by his ease, agility and above all his mastery of the situation....

" Guys, I've reached the top, come on." Says the young man

" How do we do it ? " Asks Seokmin

" Same as me."

" I have no strength in my arms Jeonghan-hyung." Says Joshua

" Shuji, lean against the wall, and help yourself to the clothes right there..."

" Ah, I get it. "

Joshua climbs first, followed by the others, Minghao is the last to climb so he picks up the clothes as he goes.

" Are you serious ? " Asks Jun.

" What's the matter ? "

" Reclaiming clothes, even though they're dirty and damaged ? " Says Seungkwan

" It can always come in handy later for something, Kwan."

" You're saying that because it's branded, aren't you ? " Says Soonyoung

" Probably. "

The boys shake their heads and Minghao smiles proudly. Jeonghan, meanwhile, has picked up a new cell phone, which makes an atrocious noise...

" What's going on ? "

" I have no idea, Vernon."

" Shit."

" Burn me your native tongue."

" But ?! "

Joshua looks at Jeonghan then sticks out his tongue gently.

" No but oh you ! You think I didn't see you ?! "

" It was meant for you to see precisely that."

" Nah, but why did you come to Korea if it's to speak your shitty language." asks Jihoon.

" Mea-"

Joshua doesn't even have time to finish his sentence, because a new noise rings out. Jeonghan looks at his cell phone, then reads.

" FINAL TEST ! "
