(Sometime after Hockey Camp, Riley, Val, the girl, the pony and the Fire Hawks are attending Bay View High School; it is lunch period.)

Val: Hey, Minnesota. How long are you gonna stare at your phone?

Riley: It's almost two. Coach is gonna post the list any minute.

Sunny: Really?

(Riley nodded while Iroha keep silence after what happened to her.)

Joy: Okay 2:00 PM. That's in-

Anxiety: Six minutes. And what happens if we don't become a Fire Hawk? Well, thanks for asking, Joy. I'll tell you. First, Mom and Dad are very disappointed. We don't go pro and we find work as an enthrone music psychologist, even though we don't really know what that is. We have no friends and we die alone.

Joy: Okay, okay. None of that is happening right now, is it?

Anxiety: No?

Joy: Great! So why don't we take a seat in our special chair?

Anxiety: Yeah. That's a great idea.

[Anxiety sits in an armchair near the shelves; it begins to vibrate like a massage chair.]

Joy: See? Isn't that better?

Anxiety: (voice warbling) Oh yeah. That's the stuff.

Joy: We can't control whether Riley makes the team. But what we can control?

Anxiety: Well um, Oh! Riley has a Spanish test tomorrow. We need to study.

Joy: Oh! You're right! We totally-

Anxiety: Olvidamos!

Joy: What's that mean?

Anxiety: Forgot.

Anger: Nice work, Anxiety.

Disgust: I never would have thought of that.

Fear: Someone paid attention in class.

Disgust: I never would've thought of that.

Ennui: You're clearly an expert..

Envy: Muchas Gracias.

Anxiety: Thanks, guys.

Joy: Plus, we followed our new varsity caliber training program.

Envy: Oh. I wish I thought of that.

Joy: Newsflash. You did.

Envy: Wait, you're right, I did. I'm jealous of myself. Thanks for the reminder.

Pouchy: (offscreen) You're welcome!

Joy: Who said that?

Anger: It's my new buddy, Pouchy.

Pouchy: Hi everybody! I'm Pouchy!

Anger: Confetti if we make the team!

Fear: Good idea- (Pouchy shoots confetti at him from his mouth) Aah!

Joy: That's great, but either way. We love our girl.

Anger: Confetti if we don't!

Fear: (Pouchy shoots again) Aah! (Coughs up a confetti)

(Riley's phone beeps; she checks her notifications.)

Mayu: Who was it?

Val: Is the Coach's email?

Riley: No, it's Bree and Grace.

(Bree and Grace are on the other line calling from their school.)

Disgust: Oh, I miss those girls.
