Episode Title:
One Little Step at a Time.
Episode Description:
9-tie begins performing weekly but struggles to get much in the way of an audience. Their mood further dampens when Karin and Ayano, who were in the north Kanto qualifiers alongside Suzune, vent their frustration at them dropping out of the show. Despite these struggles, the girls manage to spread word of their mini-concerts to gain a decent audience, even winning over Karin and Ayano with their performance. Noticing 9-tie's success, Jun invites them to return to Selection Project for a special final round, offering them a professional debut if they can earn 2,000,000 yells. As the girls return back to the lodge to prepare, Suzune begins to act strangely.
