While Mai and Misumi were in their usual spots for Ballet, the teacher couldn't help but put them next to each other. It was a bad idea on her part because Misumi and Mai were giving each other death glares every chance they got. She had told them to stop with the stink eye at one another or she would send them to the Head-Teacher.

They listened, but they had other plans. And by that, Misumi had that other plans. Mai knew she was going to do something, but had no idea until she was on the ground with her friends atop another.

Mai: What was that for?

Misumi: No reason.

Mai: Don't give me that crap. I know you did it for something else.

Misumi: You want to know, then don't my brother away from me.

Mai: You say that like your implying incest. Plus, that's gross if you are.

The girls argued with each other like that for a while and the teacher had just about had enough of it, but let it continue to let them get it out of their systems. Once the two starting slapping the other however, it was a completely different story.

Teacher: Head-Teacher's office. Now!

Girls: Why?

Teacher: No questions, start walking and I'm keeping my eye on the both of you the whole way there.

Girls: Fine!

(Op: Let's Dance On)

Looking back on his failure, Baton sent down Ballet's copy to earth to deal with the Precure while he disappeared to do something.

H-Teacher: How could you girls? Your teacher and I let the arguments slide before, but slapping each other . . . that's unacceptable of two our most promising young students.

Looking down in shame, the two didn't even bother to look at each other or the Head-Teacher for that matter.

H-Teacher: Look, why don't the two of you switch places for the week and see how it goes. 

Mai: What about notifying our parents? Shouldn't they know about this?

Misumi: For once, I agree with you.

Mai: Gee, thanks.

H-Teacher: Don't worry, they have already been notified and are each on their way as we speak.

(Eyecatch 1: Mai, Daitan, Kiko, Hana and Mirai are playing a game of tag, when their pixies trip them up that causes them to dog-pile on Mai. All five of the girls lay side by side on a mound of grass and the pixies are by their heads, with the logo beneath them.)

(Eyecatch2: Cure Ballet, Cure Hip Hop, Cure Cheerleader, Cure Flamenco and Cure Luau each dance toward the centre of their dance space and head-butt each other. Misumi gathers the all of the girls for a photo, with Cure Ballet being front and centre.)

After everything that happened in the office and leaving with the others parents, Misumi found that Mai's parents were kind and treated her like family after introducing her to Mai's younger sisters. Meanwhile with Mai, she found out Joey was the brother Misumi was talking about and was surprised how someone so nice can have a sister that rude. 

Joey explained they were raised with the roughly the same level of importance, but doesn't know how Misumi gained her rude behavior. Mai explained what may have caused it and Joey agreed with her, but that doesn't explain why she hadn't said anything at home about the matter.

Mai's copy walked around for a while and saw Mai walking with a boy and two adults that were not her parents. Knowing what to do, she silently followed them and made sure to keep some distance between them. When Mai and the boy were away from the adults, the copy of Mai crept up closer behind the two and took what was needed.

~ ~ ~

Joey: I've been needing to ask you something, Mai.

Mai: What is it?

Joey: Are you a Precure?

Mai: What? Why would you say that?

Joey: Whenever you disappear, Cure Ballet and the others always seem to appear after.

Lowering her voice to an audible whisper, she confessed to the boy.

Mai: I am a Precure, but please don't confess this to anyone else. Especially Misumi.

Joey: Got it, lets look around for a while longer before leaving to catch up with my parents.

While looking around the other parts of the shop, a bang and crash came from outside and the two ran out to see what it was. Making their way to the source of the noise, Mai met the girls who were already at the scene.

Hana: What's he doing here?

Mai: I'll explain later, just transform.

Hana: Fine.

~ ~ ~ ~

Mai: Precure!

Daitan: Precure!

Kiko: Precure!

Hana: Precure!

Mirai: Precure!

Together: Let me Dance!

Clipping the belts around their waists, the girls each use their skills and energy to create the outfits. Mai waved her hands over the belt, Daitan slams two balls of energy together, Kiko creates her outfit, while Hana and Mirai materialize their outfits.

Two toned hair for the now transformed Mai, identical twin light blue ponytails for Daitan, a long yellow side ponytail for Kiko, a voluminous split red ponytail for Hana, and a split green ponytail for Mirai.

Ballet: With a gentle dance that makes the world calm, I'll show you how I choose to dance. Cure Ballet!

Hip Hop: With a dance that's calm and makes the world get up on their feet, I'll show you a fabulous dance in time. Cure Hip Hop!

Cheerleader: With a dance that brings happiness and makes the world have a smile, I'll show you a great time. Cure Cheerleader!

Flamenco: With a dance that brings us to passion and makes the world fell fiery, I'll show you how to dance fast. Cure Flamenco!

Luau: With a dance whose history originated from Hawaii, I'll show you how my dance is perfection. Cure Luau!

Group: Dances from around the world! Let's continue dancing, Dance Precure!

Launching into attack mode, Joey hid and watched the girls fight. His focus never left the girl in pink and thought he starting to have a bit of a crush on her. 

Ballet: How this one stronger than the others?

Luau: This one is something else and I'm not sure how you girls did this before I joined.

Fighting the robot some more, the girls started to struggle against it. Just when they were about to pull out the finishing move to heal it, the thing got back up again and knocked them down and out. The robot and Mai's copy left the scene, then Joey came out of his hiding spot to check on the group of girls. 

They were fine, just out cold. Their transformations faded and their pixies joined him in checking up on the girls. Lily went over to Joey and rubbed her head against his arm. Smiling, he told the pixies they were fine, but it would be a while before they woke up.
