It's been a while since the girls have played together, and now they're back at the municipal karaoke culture center. They've been playing cards all day, but they haven't been able to play as well as they used to because of their bad posture and lack of speed. One of the girls says she's worried about what will happen to her when she doesn't play well. She wants to go out and play with the other girls, but she can't bring herself to do so when she feels so bad. She's also worried about how she'll be able to pay for the trip to the tournament, since she has a third year of college ahead of her.
