Ep 2. Episode 2

Kyoko has been working hard as a waitress in order to support her childhood friend and crush Sho's dreams of becoming a famous pop star. However, when she overhears Sho talking disrespectfully about her and using her as a pawn to manipulate his manager, she decides to leave him and pursue her own dreams of becoming a successful actress.

In episode 2, Kyoko arrives at the talent agency LME and meets her assigned agent, Mr. Takenori Sawara. Sawara is surprised by Kyoko's lack of ambition and tells her that she needs to have a clear goal and sense of self if she wants to succeed in the entertainment industry. He suggests that she attend the agency's training school, which will help her develop her skills and find her inner motivation.

Kyoko agrees to attend the training school and meets fellow students Kanae Kotonami and Maria Takarada. Kanae is a serious and talented actress who aspires to play a wide range of roles, while Maria is a young girl who dreams of becoming a pop star like Sho. Kyoko is impressed by their dedication and feels motivated to work hard and improve her own skills.

The training school instructor, the eccentric and demanding Lory Takarada, challenges the students to create a skit that showcases their talents. Kyoko struggles at first, but eventually comes up with a creative and entertaining skit that impresses both Lory and her classmates. She realizes that she has a talent for creating characters and improvising on the spot.

Meanwhile, Kyoko's former employer, the restaurant owner, contacts Sho and tells him about Kyoko's plans to become an actress. Sho is infuriated that Kyoko would dare to pursue her own dreams and vows to sabotage her career. He contacts LME and tells them that Kyoko is mentally unstable and should not be allowed to continue with her training.

Kyoko is devastated when she hears about Sho's betrayal and begins to doubt herself. However, Sawara encourages her to ignore Sho's words and focus on her goals. He tells her that the entertainment industry is a tough and competitive environment, but that with hard work and determination, she can succeed.

The episode ends with Kyoko vowing to prove Sho wrong and become a successful actress. She is determined to work hard and make a name for herself in the industry, no matter what obstacles she may face.
