The episode starts out with a newscast about the monster attack at Kaito Hibiki's concert last episode. As the girls are doom thinking, Cure Idol sings a song to cheer them up. A man in the cafe hears her singing and inquires about it. She pops up from upstairs saying it's her. He asks Cure Idol to come audition for an idol debut for his agency. She is shocked and confused by it.
Then cut to opening theme song.
The cures are having lunch at school. Zukyun and Kiss are in fairy form. They are discussing with Cure Idol about if she is going to accept the offer from the Mr. President man. Cure Idol isn't sure since she is already an idol as Cure Idol and she's not sure how it'll work being an idol as both a Cure and her regular self. Zukyun asks if Cure Idol wants to be idol.
Cure Idol thought that idols were really amazing when they went to Kaito's concert last episode. She would love to make people feel sparkly even in her regular form too. Wink says it's decided then. And the other Cures say they'll support her.
Cure Idol returns home to Cafe Glitter where the president is already telling her parents about his company. Her parents look a bit uneasy and say they want to respect her feelings. She says she wants to be an idol and to make people smile. Once it's agreed upon, Cure Idol starts singing but Mr. President says not to because she'll be using her voice a lot for vocal training and concerts. Also, he's eyes under the shades are yellow with a diamond pupil. This man is now suspicious.
Mr. President feels the room with humidifiers and has Cure Idol wearing a mask. Kiss says she's got a bad feeling about this. Same girl. Same.
Cut to a montage of Cure idol doing daily life, bursting into her happy songs and Mr. President popping up saying no singing,
During lunch, their classmates approach them talking about the monster that appeared at Kaito Hibiki's concert. They feel scared about the monsters coming up. Cure Idol wants to sing for them to cheer them up but can't because of what Mr. President has been saying. The fairies transform into their human forms and show up being the classmates and offer to walk them home.
Cure Idol is sad that she couldn't cheer up her scared friends and is contemplating things at the beach. Kaito Hibiki shows up and he tells her he had those doubts too. But seeing her sing to guests when he first went to cafe Glitter made him realize he wanted to try singing to his friend, Kazuma.
The other Cures are having a small meeting after the fairies walked their classmates home. They're worried about Cure Idol. They resolve to go tell her in person that they will always support her no matter what she decides to do.
They find her by the beach and tell her such and Cure Idol is so happy that she wants to sing but is trying to stop herself because of what Mr. President said. Also I realized that most of the human characters have a diamond shaped pupil in this show. So maybe not so sus.
We see Chokkirine playing darts while playing a japanese word game when Queen Darkine or whatever shows up in her shadow and threatens her to end the fight with the PreCure or be trapped in her darkness forever.
We see Mr. President walking down the street worrying about if Cure Idol is taking good care of her voice. He pauses outside of an old record store and we see a younger version of him singing in 80s rock glam look on some records. He doesn't want Cure Idol to end up like him. I'm guessing he blew out his vocal cords and can't sing anymore.
Chokkirine turns Mr. President into a monster. He seems to be a humidifier wearing a mask.
Red heart ribbon Cure Idol does the finishing move.
Whoever was in charge of animating the scene with Chokkirine back at the bad guys base. They did a great job. That scene was animated wonderfully. She looks ragged. Her movements make her desperation shine. Bravo to those who worked on that scene.
Mr. President comes to in a park. Cure Idol is there in her civi form. She says she's sorry but she wants to sing when she wants to and asks him to please forget about making her an idol. Mr. President tells her that when he was younger, people thought he would be a great singer. But he practiced too hard and damaged his throat. I was correct in my theory. I have also heard and seen this happen to people before. He didn't want her to experience that. and He's sorry for putting her through that. But she reminded him that singing when you want to is the happiest thing.
As they're walking home, Cure Idol is singing happily and striking silly poses. KyunKyun then remembers that Mr. President seemed familiar because he was a famous rock singer. Shoutin Shuichi. KyunKyun and Wink are amazed she was scouted by someone so famous. Kaito Hibiki sees them walking pass on the other side and is happy to see Cure Idol has her smile back and says she really is an idol.
Cut to ending theme song.
