[bunniefuu]

[Avery] Places for the Rainbow
Vision semi-finals.

Places, everyone.

Places!

[sigh] I hope Glitch
can pull off her song.

It won't be a good look for Shadow High

if we have a repeat
of her first year fail.

[Rainbow Vision intro]

Welcome to the Rainbow Vision semi-finals!

Now remember, this part of the competition

is not only scored
by our elite panel of judges…

But also, you, our audience.

Twelve semi-finalists will compete.

Three will make it to the finals…

and only one will see
their Rainbow Vision come true.

Wherever your rainbow journey
takes you this year,

we hope it helps you find your voice.

[cheering and applause]

I'm obsessed with her.

Obsessed. Do you know if she's repped?

[gasp]

Thank you Rainbow Vision!

Now, without further ado,

let's get our first semi-finalist
and her dancers out here

to wow us with their Bollywood flair!

Take it away Meena!

[girl] Where are the rest of the dancers?

Where is everyone?

This is a…

special route onto the stage.

STORAGE ROOM

[gasp] Sabotaging Meena?

She may be an exchange student,

but she is competing for Rainbow High.

You thinking what I'm thinking?

Yup. Payback.

Well, first release her dancers
from the giant closet…

Then payback.

The show must go on…

Let's do this!

[music stops abruptly]

[cheering and applause]

Thanks for showing up.

Better late than never.

[Laurel] Ugh. The Storm twins.

Always on brand
with there endless sabotage.

Shadow High really needs
to be taken down a notch…

or twenty.

So what's the payback plan?

Gee. I haven't the foggiest idea…

[Rainbow Vision intro]

Everyone,
welcome Shadow High's Natasha Zima!

♪ Everybody wants a look
Now I gotcha ♪

♪ Nothing gonna stop ya
Look by Natasha ♪

♪ Oh, see I caught ya ♪

♪ That's what I thought
Yeah look, look, look by Natasha ♪

[Phaedra]
Natasha's singing and choreo are on point.

And… [sniff]
I think I smell her signature scent

being diffused on stage with the fog.

Dra-ma!

♪ Contour, color, want it now ♪

♪ Highlights, bronzer, beauty, bold ♪

♪ -Palette, gotta have it
-Sold! ♪

[pop music]

[Violet coughs] Drama indeed!

The fog and perfume were a nice idea

but this is a bit extra.

Even for my tastes.

It smells like a scent b*mb went off.

[coughs]

Looks like we're going to have
to take a brief intermission to…

clear the air.

[tense music]

RAINBOW HIGH

Thank you everyone for remaining calm.

We evacuated only
in an abundance of caution.

We will be resuming the competition

as soon as we air out the auditorium.

So hold tight.

[tense music]

River! Has anyone seen River?

Amaya!

River!

[River] I'm so glad you're okay!

[suspense music]

Alfie?

-[Minnie] Tessa!
-[Tiara] You can't go back in there.

[Tessa] Alfie…?

Hello? I'm here!

[laughts] Alfie! You're okay.

Why wouldn't I be?

What's going on? Where is everybody?

And what is that smell?

We're coming at you live,

outside the recently evacuated
Rainbow Vision auditorium

where reportedly The Royal Three member

Tessa Park

has risked her life to go in
after missing Kingsley Boy member

Alfie Kingsley.

And I saw your brothers
slash bandmates but not you,

so I was worried that maybe

you were having an allergic reaction

to the perfume scent.

Are you okay, Alfie?

Yes, I was just practicing my moves
in front of the mirror, and I…

I'm okay.

I didn't know you even knew my name.

Or that I have allergies…

Breaking news! They're okay!

Actually, maybe more than okay…

[Ms. Wright] Alright. Enough gawking.

Things are clearly safe inside,
so it's time to get on with the show!

-[techno music]
-[cheering and applause]

Now that we've cleared the air,
let's get on with the show!

Up next, The Royal Three!

[techno music ends]

[pop music]

♪ Oh, let's go Rainbow Vision ♪

We just wanted to come and give Glitch

some congratulatory flowers
for handling things like a pro.

Hmm. Sorry, you're not on the list.

And I'm on strict orders
to stick to the list.

C'mon, Ainsley.

Classmate. Bestie.

You can let us in.

Can I help you?

No. We will just find another way…

to give her these flowers.

Ugh. I can't believe
we were denied from backstage.

Don't worry.
The Rainbow Divas are up next,

and we'll have better
access to them out here.

And less watchful eyes.

Avery!

We've tripled checked
every checklist, prop and cue,

and have let no one backstage.

Great. Up next are The Rainbow Divas…

Where are my Divas?

[gasp] The Rainbow Divas!

We love you. Can we get a picture?

-Oh, well, we're supposed to be…
-It will be a quick pic.

And a quick snip.

Last call for the Rainbow Divas!

We're here! We're here!

Sorry!

You're on. Wait!

What is this?

All hands to the left wing people.

We have a code sabotage.

[gasp] Someone messed with my designs?

A snipped hem? Oh, heck no!

-No one messes with my designs.
-On it!

Okay, you're good to go.

[Tessa] Whoo! Thank you.

[Minnie] Hello, Rainbow Vision!

[Tiara] Thank you so much!

[Glitch] Ladies and Gentlemen,
the Rainbow Divas!

[gasp] Wow. You girls all did so great!

Really? You think all of them?

To me, Ayesha was the real stand out.

No, no, Meline was the star.

Clearly. Ayesha is a great backup,

but I have the stage presence.

Well, I think you and Ayesha
were equally good.

[laughts] You would.

Excuse me! What does that mean?

[tense music]

It's stuck!

Stand back!

I have the strongest roundhouse kick
known to mixed martial arts.

[Glitch] And now,
ready to shock your world,

it's Neon Shadow!

Laurel, hit the remix button.

[Veronica] Not so fast.

Oh, lip stick!

I'm so scared!

Not!

[gasp]

If you sabotage Neon Shadow,

we'll unleash the video proof we have
of you sabotaging Natasha!

Fine. Do it.

Then Laurel and I
will have a chat with Coco

about the so called "fans"

the Rainbow Divas took pics with earlier.

[Holly] We know it was you!

That's it!

[squeak]

Hasn't reality TV taught us anything?

You are four of the greatest
masterminds of all time.

-[chuckles] You've got that half right.
-[Laurel moans]

Right now, you need each other.

Whether you like it or not.

If you keep working against each other,

there's a chance
neither of your schools will win.

But if you combine your forces…

What are you suggesting?

He's saying we need
to work to-to ge-th… [gag reflex]

[beep]

Thank you, Neon Shadow!

We missed the whole song?

It's all your fault!

The time you're wasting fighting
could be put to making sure

you all get what you want.
Your school in the finals.

Agh! He's right.

Okay, fine. We're in.

But to be clear,

as soon as our schools
make it to the finals,

this truce is off.

Period.

[phone rings]

[Holly] It will take two minutes
to get rid of Bottom Barrel High.

I happen to know
their lead singer uses auto-tune.

Okay. So what is the
Kingsley Boys weakness?

I don't think anything
can bring them down.

Vocals, choreography, hair.

Hm… Maybe hide their hairspray?

C'mon. We need to think bigger.

We need to go full De'Vious on them.

And now, from all the way across the pond,

it's The Kingsley Boys!

Thank you, Rainbow Vision.

-[cheering and applause]
-[tense music]

Mommy? We need a favor.

You still know
that guy in Australia, right?

How could you let the Twins
get into the booth?

You were supposed to be running the show!

What happened?

I don't have eyes
on the back of my ponytail!!

And from the look of the stage,

I would say you failed
at locking down backstage.

So what happened there? Huh?

I'm so glad I don't have
to deal with this anymore.

Oh, well If you can't take the heat,
get out of the kitchen!

Oh wait! You did!

[Rainbow Vision intro]

Breaking news!!

This is hot off the presses, people!

The Kingsley Boys have just been asked

to go on a world-wide tour,
starting tonight!

Apparently their performance
caught the eye of Australian music mogul

and billionaire, Britchard Random!

So The Kingsley Boys are officially out

of the Rainbow Vision competition!

[tense music]

Glitch will introduce you from the stage

and then you'll go out and slay
as the closing act for semi-final!

Any questions?

[something cracks]

Ugh, I swear to the fashion fates…

this show would fall apart without me.

[sigh] While you wait,
why don't you mix and mingle

with this year's competitors?

[Avery] What are we gonna do?
This is a disaster.

Someone help out!

Ugh!

This signal is trash…

I'm not that bad without autotune, am I?

[cries]

[Meline] Attention, everyone,

we will have
an official press conference later…

but the Rainbow Divas
are officially breaking up.

Um… Maybe we pass on mingling for now?

"…put your hands together
for last year's Rainbow Vision winn…"

Glitch dear!

So glad we found you.

Yeah. Someone's been
looking all over for you.

Oh no! Did I miss my cue?

What? No, intermission is still going.

You have loads of time!

And while you wait,
a one-on-one with Glitch!

Lady, I loved your host performance.

Loved it!

-Thank you.
-That song you sang?

A star is born!

I already have a vision
for what we could do together.

Wow. I would love to talk, but…

Are you sure I'm not going to miss my cue?

Please double check for her.

I cannot have my future client
being late to the stage.

No-no. You have so much time.

Full minutes.

[Rainbow Vision intro]

Wow! What an amazing semi-final it's been.

Glitch is about to announce
tonight's final performance!

So without further ado…

here's Glitch!

[tense music]

[gasp]

Did Glitch get stage fright?

-Is this sabotage?
-Where did she go?

-Maybe she quit due to bad lighting?
-[gasp]

Uhh… Should we just go on stage
without our intro?

Where's Glitch?

Glitch?

Glitch!

Everyone spread out.
Check the Green room, the restrooms…

check all the rooms!

Where is she?

While we wait for your official host,

please give another round of applause

for all
of your Rainbow Vision semi-finalists.

What did you two do with Glitch?

[both] Who? Us?

This violates our alliance!

Actually, the host is not

technically protected under the alliance.

And Glitch doesn't need
our help to be a hot mess.

[Paris] The innovation we, judges,
have seen on this show is remarkable.

Oh, no! I totally missed my cue.

Ugh. I can't believe I fell
for those Rainbow High twins lies.

Where are you going?
Ms. Hilton has it covered.

You can go back on
after Rainbow Dream performs.

What? Paris Hilton isn't
the host of Rainbow Vision.

I am!

And look forward to seeing
what you future icons do in the world.

And now, your actual
Rainbow Vision Host…

Glitch!!

[cheering and applause]

[sigh and clears throat]

Speaking of icons, thank you Paris Hilton!

What a treat.

Our next performers know exactly

what our semi-finalists
are feeling right now.

They're by far one
of Rainbow Vision's most beloved bands…

let's hear it for Rainbow Dream
singing "Heroes"!

[cheers and applauds]

Thank you Rainbow Dream
for that EPIC performance…

And now the moment
we've all been waiting for.

The selection
of our Rainbow Vision Finalists!

There can only be three finalists…

chosen 50% by the panel
and 50% by the audience…

Some of these performers
brought us struggle,

artistry and innovation against all odds.

Who will triumph?

We'll find out in a few
short moments because voting…

Starts… Now!

We're leaving the alliance!

[both] No we're leaving the alliance!

We said is first!

But we mean it more!

Wait…! Did they…?

Is that?

Whoopsie. Rainbow Dream just got done.

Guess you missed out on sabotaging them

while we were fighting.

Forget the eclipse.

Now you better prepare
because this time there's a storm coming.

This year's Rainbow Vision
had the highest number of entries

in the competition's history

so our finalists are
truly the cream of the crop.

So without further ado…

the finalists in this year's
Rainbow Vision Competition

Will be revealed…

…after the break.
