What happens

Aqua accepts a teen dating show as a trade for names. A stage actress on the cast is edited into the villain, and the comments nearly kill her. He and a veteran livestreamer drag her back from the edge; she answers by studying the idol he still measures everyone against. When taping ends, that livestreamer joins the group that still has no debut.
