|Dialogue={{ST|Summer Luca}} Hyaaaah!
{{ST|Summer Ranzal}} Hrraargggh!
{{ST|Elisanne}} Hwaaaah!
{{ST|Fiend}} Grrraaarrggghh...
{{ST|Woman}} Goodness, what an exciting opening act! Er, that WAS an act...right?
{{ST|Summer Luca}} All right, folks! Now that we've warmed up the stage for her, it's time to put your hands together for...SIIIIIREN! She should be ready any minute now, so raise your voices and let her know that YOU'RE all ready, too!
{{ST|Audience}} SI-REN! SI-REN! SI-REN! SI-REN! SI-REN! SI-REN!
Backstage
{{ST|Siren}} Everyone is calling my name... This is totally a dream.
{{ST|Summer Verica}} This is no dream, Siren—and it is your courage that made it real.
{{ST|Siren}} Er, Verica? Why are you wearing that?
{{ST|Summer Verica}} Am I not your backup dancer? Or should I say...ONE of them?
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} *ahem*
{{ST|Siren}} Ohmigosh, Cleo, you look AMAZING! But wait, don't you totally hate swimsuits?
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} I decided that I, too, desired change. And that there is nothing shameful about wearing swimsuits—or having fun. I had told myself that a prince's attendant needed to refrain from such things. But that was merely an excuse, and I knew that to be the case. So rather than declaring I could not do such things, I swore to be more true to myself—much like you are, in fact. I want to stand on that stage with you in this outfit and make a summer memory I will never forget. So...will you have me?
{{ST|Siren}} Duh! Of COURSE I will, you dingus! Now let's get out there and make memories until we drop!
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} Oh, and I have something for you...
{{ST|Siren}} Ohmigosh, is this a COSTUME?!
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} I thought you might want a stage outfit for your big moment. I know what this performance means to you, and I wanted to make something to recognize that. Although it is perfectly all right if this particular outfit is not your style.
{{ST|Siren}} Cleooooo! I looooove it! C'mere and hug me, girl!
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} Bwah! I wasn't really expecting a hug...
{{ST|Summer Verica}} If you two are done here, we have an entire audience that is waiting.
{{ST|Pop-Star Siren}} Right! Lemme just get changed here... Okay, we're totes good to go. Let's do this, ladies! Everyone's waiting for me! Woo hoo! Let's make some noooooise! (This day has finally come. I'm...not alone anymore. So many nights spent alone... So many mornings crying... But now I feel like I love everything, and it's all 'cause I met you guys.)
{{ST|Notte}} You look mega-cute, Siren!
{{ST|Summer Luca}} Your singin' is the best!
{{ST|Pop-Star Siren}} (Now it's my turn to make YOU happy. I am going to put every drop of my emotion into my music and, like, blast it back out to everyone!)

{{ST|The Prince}} Siren!
{{ST|Everyone}} SI-REN! SI-REN! SI-REN! SI-REN!
{{ST|Pop-Star Siren}} (It's time to show 'em how much they mean to me!) Thank you, everyone! Hee hee! That was great... So happy...  Soooo hungry... *sniff*
{{ST|Summer Ranzal}} I'm good if ya laugh, cry, or eat, but ya gotta pick one, yeah?
{{ST|Summer Verica}} Heh. You should eat.
{{ST|Notte}} Nothing beats barbecue after a hard night's work, right? Mmmmmmm...
{{ST|The Prince}} Hmm. Cleo seems to be missing again. I'll see if I can find her.
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} ......
{{ST|The Prince}} Ah, here you are.
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} Oh, hello. Do you need something, Euden.
{{ST|The Prince}} I'm just looking for you, actually. Everyone's eating, and I thought you'd want to come join us.
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} I am already full—or perhaps it is simply my heart that is full.
{{ST|The Prince}} Mind if I sit with you, then?
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} Please.
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, it was a bit rough at times, but we managed to make that concert happen. What do you think? Did you enjoy it?
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} Of course. Although the dancing part was difficult...and rather embarrassing.
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, you looked like a natural up there. It really was a new side of you!
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} The swimsuit, you mean?
{{ST|The Prince}} N-no! That's not what I...
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} Heh. A jest only, I assure you. In truth, I even surprised myself a bit with my boldness. I've been finding all sorts of reasons to avoid that sort of thing—claiming it was because I was an attendant and such. I always get timid at events like this. It's as if I am waiting for someone to tell me it is acceptable to enjoy myself. But watching Siren made me realize how wrong that mindset is. What I really wanted was to join in on the fun. That's what I've ALWAYS wanted. If I had simply put on the flashy clothes and danced and sung and laughed, I would have all sorts of happy memories. I don't want such regrets anymore.
{{ST|The Prince}} Sounds like you've taken a bold step. I'm glad to hear it. You're a serious person, Cleo, and maybe that's what causes you to hesitate... But whenever I see you smile, it makes me happier than you will ever know. So I hope you'll keep pushing yourself like you did tonight. It's okay to enjoy yourself. Really.
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} Oh. I know those words... Oh no, Your Majesty. I could never...  ("There is nothing wrong with enjoying yourself, you know?" That's what His Majesty said to me that day. I finally remembered his words. His vitally important words.)
{{ST|The Prince}} Sorry, did I say something strange?
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} No. Not at all. I AM enjoying myself. I enjoy every moment that I spend with you all, and know I will continue to do so.
{{ST|The Prince}} That's really great to hear, Cleo. Should we head back to the others, then? We can walk together, if you want.
{{ST|Summer Cleo}} Of course. (I want to make many happy memories and keep them inside me forever. Summer may be ending, but I want to spend the rest of all the seasons in the company of my good, fair friends. And with that wish in my heart, I take his outstretched hand...)
