Keith: (nervous) Well then, let’s do it. Repeat after me. “Banana no, nazo wa, mada, nazo, nanoda zo” (Tongue Twister: the mystery of the banana is still a mystery). Your turn!
Pao-Lin: “Banana no nazo wa, mada, nazo nanoda, zo”.
Keith: Faster!!
Pao-Lin: “Banana no nazo wa, mada nazo nanoda zo”!
Keith: Even faster!!
Pao-Lin: “Banana no nazo wa mada nazo nanoda zo”!!
Keith: Okay! Time for the next one. “Migime migimimi migimimi migime” (Tongue Twister: Right eye, right ear, right ear, right eye). Your turn!
Pao-Lin: “Migime migimimi, migimimi migime”.
Keith: “Pappe pappepo pap pe pon!”
Pao-Lin: “Pappe pappepo pappe-” wait a moment! What does that mean?
Keith: Huh? What do you mean?
Pao-Lin: These “pa!” and “pe!” feel like rehabilitation.
Keith: These are tongue twisters, not rehabilitation!
Pao-Lin: Oh I see… but is there a purpose to these tongue twisters?
Keith: Of course! Your manager asked you to practice on being more amiable right?
Pao-Lin: Yeah, not only do I lack expressions during interviews, but I’ve been told that I look too stiff.
Keith: And the point of tongue twisters is so you can loosen up your face. The most important part is to move the muscles of your face after all. As long as you loosen up your expression, then a smile is bound to come out! Haha!
Pao-Lin: What a stunning smile!
Keith: I actually trained with tongue twisters when I was a rookie.
Pao-Lin: Wow! So that’s why you’re able to talk a lot while maintaining a smile!
Keith: That may be correct, and that may be right!
Pao-Lin: So are these tongue twisters easy for Sky High?
Keith: Huh?
Pao-Lin: Cause you’ve been practicing this entire time right?
Keith: Well, if I say I’ve been doing it…
Pao-Lin: If that’s the case I want to hear Sky High say tongue twister! Is that not okay?
Keith: Okay, yes. Let me give it a try!
Pao-Lin: Yay! Then can I ask you to say something that’s even harder than the ones I just did?
Keith: Hm?
Pao-Lin: Since this may be my only chance, I want to ask for one that’s super crazy!
Keith: Haha, you raised expectations pretty fast there…
Pao-Lin: Is that not okay?
Keith: No, I’ll accept this challenge! But… I’m feeling a bit anxious now. I wonder if I can do it.
Pao-Lin: Huh? Did you say something?
Keith: Ah no, I did not say anything! Nothing at all. Now give it to me!
Pao-Lin: Then let’s begin! Please repeat three times in a row. “Yoboyobobyou yoboubyouin yoboubyousitsu yoboyobobyouyobouhou”
Keith: You don’t hold back do you?
Pao-Lin: Huh? Then would you like a different one?
Keith: No. I, Sky High, doesn’t run nor hide! Please listen! Here I go!
Pao-Lin: Go!
Keith: (takes a deep breath) I’m really going to do it.
Pao-Lin: Please!
Keith: (takes a deep breath) Is it really okay if I do it?
Pao-Lin: Please do!
Keith: Alright!! Yobyoubyobyou yobyoin yobobyoushitsu yobyoubyoubyou! I apologize! I said bobobobo a lot more often than I was expecting to. You want me to try again?
Pao-Lin: Yeah! You can do it! Don’t forget to speak clearly as well.
Keith: Okay. (coughs) Basu basubasubasu-
Pao-Lin: That’s not the right one!!
Keith: I’m just practicing right now so.
Pao-Lin: Oh okay, got it.
Keith: Alright! “Yoboyobobyou yoboubyouin yoboubyousitsu yoboyobobyouyobouhou, yoboyobobyou yoboubyouin yoboubyousitsu yoboyobobyouyobouhou, yoboyobobyou yoboubyouin yoboubyousitsu yoboyobobyouyobouhou!!”
(phone rings)
Keith: Yes! I did it! I did it!!
Pao-Lin: Hello? Origami-san!?
Keith: Huh? Were you listening to me-?
Ivan: How is your training with Sky High-san going?
Pao-Lin: It’s very useful! Thanks for recommending that I speak to Sky High for interview advice.
Ivan: I wasn’t sure what kind of advice I could offer you so… I’m happy to hear that. I’ll be off now.
Pao-Lin: Bye!
Keith: Um, can I ask you something?
Pao-Lin: Huh?
Keith: You didn’t, by chance, miss my tongue twister because of the call just now right…
Pao-Lin: Ah! I’m sorry!!
Keith: Oh you did! If that’s the case then should I do it one more time…?
Pao-Lin: Please!
Keith: Mhmm, can I do it?
Pao-Lin: Haha! I’m just joking!
Keith: Huh?
Pao-Lin: I properly heard Sky High’s tongue twister until the end.
Keith: Is that so? I’m so glad! How terrible of you to tease like that, and how terrible you are.
Pao-Lin: But Sky High is really incredible. For you to be able to do tongue twisters as well. I’m skilled in physical activities but I have no talent for things like this.
Keith: What’s wrong with that?
Pao-Lin: Huh?
Keith: You can work hard to improve yourself because you know what your weaknesses are. As long as you keep putting in the effort, you’ll definitely become better bit by bit.
Pao-Lin: You’re right. Thank you.
Keith: Alright! Then I will teach you an exclusive method I use whenever I’m nervous about an interview.
Pao-Lin: Huh?
Keith: You can't tell anyone else about this secret because it’s something only I know about.
Pao-Lin: Are you sure you want to tell me about something that is secretive?
Keith: Yes, I told you that it’s exclusive right? So listen closely. When you’re nervous, you write human, and then human on your palm and then-
Pao-Lin: You write human and then swallow it!?
Keith: What? Why do you know my exclusive method?
Pao-Lin: Rather than it being exclusive, I don’t think there is anyone who doesn’t know about this!?
Keith: What!? Is that true!?
