The next morning, the two musicians wake up to find that the concert master has fallen asleep. They're not sure if it's because he's fallen asleep or because he fell asleep in the middle of a performance, but they're sure that it is. They talk about how great they are and how they've been invited to play for the prince at the royal court . The musicians say that they don't yet feel that they are as great as they'd like to be. They play a song called "yaki to," which means "straight guy" or "funny man" in Japanese, and they discuss how they learned this from a comedy team when they were in college in Japan. They say that the first movement of the song represents the spirit of "yes," and they play the song straight on. They are about to have an audition for a bassoonist, but then they realize that the audition is being held only if they want to hear the music of the roux, a famous French bassoonist.
