The bell rings, signaling the start of the tea party, and the heroines are all in a daze. They're not sure what's going on, but they can't help but think that the bell is signaling a secret agreement between them all. The heroines sing a song about how they're going to have to decide what to do with the "most sinful one" among them. The bell sounds, signaling that the party is about to begin, and they all start freaking out. The narrator tells us that this is the first time they've been late in a game in a long time, and that it's a sign that something's up. He tells them that they'll have to stop killing each other if they want to win the game. He also tells them to stop being so mean to each other. He says that if they hadn't killed each other, they'd have all died like dogs. He's not saying that they should kill each other , he's just saying that it would be a shame if they didn't stop killing one another. He adds that they shouldn't have killed one another in the first place, because it was unusual for them all to be late at the party. He goes on to say that the heroine who killed the hero wasn't really a heroine, but a "different from us" . He then says that he thought of something good to do, but he couldn't go to the party because he'd be in a bad state. He asks the heroine if she'd like to go, but she says she's too busy with the game to think about it. She then tells him that the game isn't going to be fair, because the rules of the party are different than the ones in the book. She says that she'll be the judge of the game, and if she gets the wrong person, she won't play the next game. She also says that the only thing to do is to sleep
