The next morning, the Queens met up at the studio again for one last collaborative session.

"Alright, so, a few housekeeping things." Anne said, scanning over a notepad with several scribbled thoughts and elaborate lists. "As you all know, this might be the last full day we have to work together for awhile, and I was thinking we should try and perform a few songs. Does anyone want to volunteer?"

"I'll go." Seymour said.

"Me too." Kitty added.

"Perfect. I also have some good news: I was able to secure the theater downtown for the 19th of next month. Does anyone object to having the album ready by then, and performing it at the theater as a sort of launch party?"

A murmur of agreement spread across the room.

"Great. I'll hand it over to Anna, I understand you had some ideas about costumes?"

"Thanks. And yeah, I did. I have a few rough sketches ready of the outfits you all liked last time. So, if I can get all of your measurements today I can get them ready for opening night."

"Oooh, can I help with makeup?" Kitty squealed, raising her hand.

"That'd be great."

"Perfect. Cathy, have you had any luck with your song?"

"No." Parr said with a sigh. "I'm sorry, I haven't been able to come up with anything beyond a few bars. But I'll finish it at home and keep you all updated, I swear."

"No worries. Jane, did you want to perform first?"

"Sure, just give me a minute to get ready."

"Of course."

"Anne, could I talk to you for a second?" Kitty whispered.

"Sure, what's going on?"

"So, I don't know if you have this too, but I have a-a scar. On my neck. Where, you know..."

Anne gave a knowing nod and placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"I normally just cover it with foundation. But with the stage, and it's hot, I was worried -."

"Don't stress about it, babes. I already brought it up with Anna. She's making chokers for both of us."

Kitty breathed a sigh of relief.

"And they're bedazzled."

The two shared a grin before grabbing a mic and going behind Jane as she prepared.

She took a deep breath before signaling to start the instrumentals.

Jane's song was beautiful, a stunning ballad all about the joys and heartbreaks she experienced in her life. As she began to belt, Catherine wasn't sure what came over her, but she began to sing the chorus in accompaniment.

"You can build me up, you can tear me down..."

She made eye contact with Anna, who followed suit.

"You can try but I'm unbreakable."

Kitty, then Anne, then Catalina, they all noticed and sang in unison as Jane strung out the high note.

"You can do your best, but I'll stand the test, you'll find that I'm unshakable."

Finally, all Six queens came together to sing:

"The fire's burned, the wind has blown, the water's dried, and you'll still find stone."

Jane finished with one last breathy lyric:

"My heart of stone."

The music stopped, and the Queens looked at each other in awe.

"We just did that!" Catalina cheered, pumping her fist.

"That was brilliant." Jane said with a giddy smile. "Thank you, everyone."
