“What's this? What's going on?” Jaesuk asked as he looked at the contraption. They all got on and Sejeong read the instructions.

“There are barbells on one side with alphabets written on them. Move the barbells to the other side. You must complete three English words. You have 15 minutes. However, a minute will be deducted every time the scale loses balance. Your time begins the moment when the other side of the scale lifts off the ground.”
 
“Wait. Wait, we need to balance it first.” Kwangsoo stated.

“You're right. A few should go to that side.” Jaesuk pointed.

“How do we do it though?” Jongmin asked.

“Come over here.” Jaesuk called everyone to go to the other side.

“I want to win.” Sehun stated determinedly which made everyone laugh.

“I want to win. I really want to win.” He repeated.

“He said that about 100 times.” Jaewook reported.

“We must win.” Sehun declared.

“We need to balance it.” Jaesuk said as everyone moved to the left side and the scale started moving.

“What?” Jongmin was panicking.

“We need to move slowly.” Sejeong suggested.

“No, not yet.” Jaesuk advised.

“Wait a second. Not yet! Let's move back slowly.” He instructed the team.

“A bit more.” Jaewook said. It started tipping more and everyone ran to the other side in panic.

“Hang on. No, wait!”

“It's tipping!” When one side of the scale touched the ground, air blew off from a pipe on the side of the scale.

“What was that?” Jongmin asked.

“What's going on?”

“This side is higher.” Jaesuk observed.

“We should move to the center.” Kwangsoo suggested. 

“Wait. Hold on a second.” 

“Some should move back while some move forward.” Jaesuk said.

“Sunmi and I--” Minyoung volunteered since they were the most familiar with the English language.

“We will go one by one.” Jongmin said.

“Hold on a second.” Jaesuk said, taking off his coat.

“Small steps. Minyoung-ah, Sunmi-ah. We need to balance them out.” Jaesuk told everyone.

“Sure.” Both women agreed.

“Balance us out.” Minyoung told the others as she and Sunmi slowly walked to the other side.

“Step back. Move back, Sejeong. That's it.” Jaesuk told Sejeong.

“Sejeong, this way.” Jongmin assisted her. Sunmi stopped walking halfway through and turned to Jaesuk.

“Oppa, I’ll stay on the other side to keep the balance when we transfer the bigger ones.” She said.

Jaesuk then started moving to be the one to pick up the pieces. They tipped over a lot of times but Sunmi just stood there, unbothered by the commotion, trying to form different words.

“Let's not rush this. Jaesuk-ah.” Jaewook started saying.

“Yes?”

“You will hang the weights. Kwang-soo and Jong-min don't know where the letters go.” Jaewook instructed.

“How could you say that? Are you kidding me?” Kwangsoo said.

“We know simple English.” Jongmin defended.

“We graduated college!” Kwangsoo argued.

“Hyung, this is N, isn't it?” Jongmin told him to prove he knows the English alphabet.

“We graduated college.” Kwangsoo stated.

“Unnie, here’s my list.” Sunmi gave the list to Minyoung who looked at it.

“Guys, we got it. The words are ‘lucky, grape, and shift’.” Minyoung stated.

“Now combine the letters.” Jongmin said.

“Okay, good. Keep the balance. Stay still.” Jaesuk said.

“Sejeong-unnie, you combine them.” Sunmi called out as she moved to the edge of the right side since the heavy pieces were already transferred. The team on the other side began putting it together.

“Shift, grape, and lucky.” Sejeong read the words out loud.

“We did it.” Minyoung said as keys dropped down a thread in front of the door. 

“What's that?” Kwangsoo asked, looking at the object.

“Get off. We need to get off.” Jaesuk said as he helped Sejeong up. 

“Go slowly. Minyoung-ah, stand up.” Jongmin told the woman.

“Let's get off.” Jaesuk said again.

“Get off. Good job.” Jongmin assisted Minyoung.

“Minyoung-ah, Sunmi-ah, you guys did a good job.” He complimented both girls.

“Thank you.” Sunmi and Minyoung said.

“How did you do that? How do you know so many English words?” Jongmin asked them.

“My goodness.” Jaewook laughed at Jongmin.

“What is this?” They all said as they entered a room filled with portraits.

“Did you play the game?” Lee Juck asked them.

“Didn't you just break the door?” Jaehyung teased.

“I think you did.” Lee Juck agreed.

“Fancy seeing you here.” Namjoon greeted Sunmi who smiled at him.

“I’m confident my team can beat yours.” She answered him.

“We’ll see about that.” Namjoon teased, his dimpled smile on show.

“We need to find the right painting first and go to the auction house.”  Jaewook whispered to Sunmi, Sehun, and Kwangsoo. Jaesuk
