Shiver “In a band, what instrument would you play? Drums, guitar or keyboard?”	Big Man “Ay? Ay. (Huh? I'm already in this band, and you know I play keyboard.)”
Shiver “Just humor me! Personally, I think it would be fun to lay into a drum kit.”	Frye “And sit in back? No way! If I'm playing, I'm jamming out in center stage on guitar!”
	Big Man “Ay? (Well, for this thought experiment, I'll say I would play...keyboard?)”
Frye “Hey, if we're a band, why AREN'T I out there shredding for our fans?”	Big Man “Ay. Ay. (I guess we're a group, not a band. The difference is murky but real.)”
Shiver “Although if we were a band, naturally I would still be the leader.”
Shiver “And in a band, that's the drummer. I count us in, I set the pace... All leaderly duties.”
	Big Man “Ay– (Actually, for most bands, people tend to assume that the leader is–)”
Frye “SHHH! Let her believe whatever gets me on guitar.”
	Frye “It's the ONLY instrument where I can fully express my innermost awesomeness!”
	Frye “I promise to use this power responsibly and keep my solos under 12 minutes.”
Shiver “What are the rest of us supposed to do while you noodle aimlessly on that thing?”
Frye “Drum fills! Keyboard with your feet! Scream in made-up languages! ANARCHY!”	Big Man “Ay... (Frye, I'm not sure you totally get the concept of a "band"...)”
Shiver “Yes. I love chaos as much as anyone, but a song needs a strong beat.”	Big Man “Ay? Ay. (Really? I think the melody is more important than the beat.)”
Frye “And that's why you're going with keyboard?”	Big Man “Ay. Ay. (No, I'm picking keyboard because I play keyboard. In actual life. For real.)”
	Big Man “Ay! Ay. (But it is a great songwriting tool! The keyboard is where the magic starts.)”
Frye “Sounds like we're deadlocked. Shiver, you know what to do!”
Shiver “One, two, three, four...SPLATFEST! I expect everyone to fall in time with Team Drums!”
Frye “OR you could follow your heart and rock out with me on Team Guitar!”
	Big Man “Ay! (Let your creative juices flow, and join us on Team Keyboard!)”

Haya “Welk instrument zouden jullie kiezen in een band? Drumstel, gitaar of keyboard?” (Which instrument would you guys choose in a band? Drums, guitar or keyboard?)	Ray “Ay? Ay... (Huh? Ik zit al in een band... en je weet dat ik keyboard speel... dus...)” (Ay? Ay... (Huh? I am already in a band... and you know I play keyboard... so...))
Haya “Het is gewoon een gedachte-experiment. Mij lijkt drummen hartstikke gaaf.” (It is simply a thought experiment. Drumming seems freaking awesome to me.)	Muriël “Maar dan zit je achterin. Ik ga liever tekeer op een gitaar en daar is ruimte voor nodig!” (But then you sit in the back. I prefer to go wild on a guitar and that needs space!)
	Ray “Ay... (Nou, als het een gedachte-experiment is, dan kies ik voor... keyboard...)” (Ay... (Well, if it is a thought experiment, I am choosing... keyboard...))
Muriël “Hé, als we een band zijn, waarom heb ik dan nog geen gitaar om op tekeer te gaan?” (Hey, if we are a band, why don't I have a guitar to go wild on yet?)	Ray “Ay. Ay. (Oké, technisch gezien zijn we een popgroep. Klein verschil, maar toch.)” (Ay. Ay. (Okay, technically speaking we are a pop group. Small difference, but still.))
Haya “Maar als we een band waren, dan zou ik natuurlijk nog steeds de leider zijn.” (But if we were a band, I would naturally still be the leader.)
Haya “In een band is dat de drummer. Want de drummer geeft de maat aan.” (In a band, that is the drummer. As the drummer sets the beat.)
	Ray “Ay... Ay... (Niet echt... Bij bands is het gebruikelijker dat de leider iemand is die...)” (Ay... Ay... (Not really... In bands, it is more common for the leader to be someone who is...))
Muriël “SSST! Laat haar nou geloven wat ze wil, zodat ik mijn gitaar krijg.” (SHHH! Let her believe what she wants, so that I get my guitar.)
	Muriël “Dat is het enige instrument waarmee ik mijn innerlijke geweldigheid kan uiten.” (That is the only instrument with which I can express my inner awesomeness.)
	Muriël “Ik zal bescheiden zijn met mijn macht en mijn solo's hooguit 12 minuten laten duren.” (I will be modest with my power and let my solos last 12 minutes at most.)
Haya “En wat moeten wij in de tussentijd doen terwijl jij aan één stuk doortokkelt?” (And what should we do in the meantime while you pluck away in one sitting?)
Muriël “Drummen met je voeten! Mij fotograferen! Verzonnen woorden schreeuwen! ANARCHIE!” (Drumming with your feet! Photographing me! Shouting made-up words! ANARCHY!)	Ray “Ay... (Muriël, volgens mij begrijp je niet helemaal hoe een band werkt...)” (Ay... (Frye, I believe you don't entirely understand how a band works...))
Haya “Ja, af en toe wat chaos is oké, maar je mag het ritme niet uit het oog verliezen.” (Yes, now and then some chaos is okay, but you must not lose sight of the rhythm.)	Ray “Ay? Ay. (Vind je? Voor mij is de melodie belangrijker dan het ritme.)” (Ay? Ay. (You think so? For me, the melody is more important than the rhythm.))
Muriël “En daarom kies je voor keyboard?” (And that is why you are choosing keyboard?)	Ray “Ay. Ay. (Nee, ik kies keyboard omdat ik dat al speel. In het echte leven.)” (Ay. Ay. (No, I am choosing keyboard because that is what I already play. In real life.))
	Ray “Ay. Ay. (Maar nummers schrijven begint met een keyboard. Daarin zit de magie.)” (Ay. Ay. (But writing songs begins with a keyboard. Therein lies the magic.))
Muriël “We komen er weer niet in harmonie uit. Haya, je weet wat je te doen staat!” (We can't work it out in harmony again. Shiver, you know what has to be done!)
Haya “Eén, twee, drie, vier... SPLATFEST! Kom bij Team Drumstel, daar vind je de beste maten!” (One, two, three, four... SPLATFEST! Join Team Drums, there you will find the best beats!)
Notes: Shiver makes a pun on maat meaning both "beat" and "mate".
Muriël “Nee, joh. De fans gaan nu al akkoord met Team Gitaar!” (No, dude. The fans are already in agreement with Team Guitar!)
Notes: Frye makes a pun on akkoord meaning both "agreement" and "chord".
	Ray “Ay! Ay! (Niet doen, fans! Beklim de toonladders naar de overwinning met Team Keyboard!)” (Ay! Ay! (Don't do it, fans! Climb the tone ladders to the victory with Team Keyboard!))
Notes: Big Man makes a pun with "toonladder" ("scale") and the figurative ladder one climbs to success.

Muri „Aber wir SIND doch 'ne Band! Wieso klampfe ich noch nicht längst für unsere Fans rum?“	Mantaro „Ay. Ay. (Formell sind wir ein „Syndicate“ Müsste wohl ein Anwalt klären oder so.)“
Mako „Aber so oder so gäbe ICH den Ton an. Nur zur Klarstellung.“
Mako „Und in einer Band tut das nun mal die Schlagzeugerin. Ohne Beat kein Lied!“

Кулла «Какой инструмент твой в группе? Гитара, синтезатор или ударные?» (Which instrument is yours in a band? Guitar, synthesizer, or drums?)	Биг Ман «Ик? Ик. Ик. (Э-э? Я как бы уже в группе. И как бы играю на клавишах.)» (Ay? Ay. Ay. (U-uh? I'm, like, already in the band. And I, like, play the keyboard.))
Кулла «Предположим, не всем это известно. Вот я бы ударно поударяла... на ударных!» (Let's assume not everyone knows this. I, for instance, would fervently whack... the drums!)	Мурия «Торчать на заднем плане? Не дождетесь! Мы с гитарой будем в центре внимания!» (Sticking around in the background? In your dreams! My guitar and I will be the center of attention!)
Notes: Both ударно udarno ("fervently", "energetically"), поударяла poudaryala ("would whack" as a slang way to say "would play the drums"), and ударные udarnye ("drums") have the same root coming from the word удар udar ("hit", "punch", "impact").
	Биг Ман «Ик? (Ну, раз предположим, то я бы... играл на синтезаторе?)» (Ay? (Well, if we're just assuming, then I would... play the synthesizer?))
Мурия «СТОП! Мы же и так группа. Чего это я не зажигаю на гитаре для фанатов?!» (STOP! We're already a band. So why don’t I rock out on the guitar for the fans?!)	Биг Ман «Ик. Ик! (Наша фишка – вокал, а не инструменты. Профиль же другой!)» (Ay. Ay! (Our thing is vocals, not instruments. A whole different profile!))
Кулла «Да будь мы хоть инструментальным ансамблем, я все равно руководитель.» (Even if we were an instrumental ensemble or something, I'd still be the leader.)
Кулла «А это обычно еще и ударник. Темп, ритм, тон, все задаю я!» (And the leader is usually also the drummer. Tempo, rhythm, tone, I set everything!)
	Биг Ман «Ик... (Вообще-то, руководители ансамблей обычно...)» (Ay... (Actually, the ensemble leaders are usually...))
Мурия «ТС-С-С!!! Пусть верит во что хочет! Главное, чтобы мне бренчать не мешала!» (SH-H-H!!! Let her believe whatever she wants! As long as she doesn’t interfere with my strumming!)
	Мурия «Это ЕДИНСТВЕННЫЙ инструмент, который позволяет мне проявить свою... СИЛУ!!!» (This is THE ONLY instrument that allows me to show my... FORCE!!!)
	Мурия «Торжественно обещаю не злоупотреблять СИЛОЙ. Все соло не дольше 12 минут!» (I solemnly promise not to abuse FORCE. All solos are no longer than 12 minutes!)
Кулла «А нам-то что делать, пока ты бренчишь на своих дровах?» (And what should we do while you're strumming on your wood?)
Notes: Дрова drova (literally "firewood") is a Russian slang word for acoustic guitar.
Мурия «Брейки! Клавишно-плавниковые вариации! Вопли на придуманных языках! АНАРХИЯ!» (Breaks! Keyboard and fin variations! Screams in made-up languages! ANARCHY!)	Биг Ман «Ик? (Мурия, а ты не знаешь, что «ансамбль» значит «вместе», а не «анархия»?)» (Ay? (Frye, are you aware that «ensemble» means «together» and not «anarchy»?))
Кулла «Я вот знаю. Я ценю хаос не меньше других, но в музыке бит превыше всего!» (I do know. I value chaos as much as anyone, but in music, the beat comes first!)	Биг Ман «Ик? Ик. (Что-что? Как по мне, мелодия куда важнее бита.)» (Ay? Ay. (What-what? As for me, the melody's much more important than the beat.))
Мурия «Ты поэтому вцепился в синтезатор?» (Is that why you cling so tightly to the synthesizer?)	Биг Ман «Ик. Ик. (Нет, я в него «вцепился», потому что сам на нем играю. Представь себе.)» (Ay. Ay. (No, I «cling so tightly» to it because I myself play it. Can you imagine.))
	Биг Ман «Ик! Ик. (Это лучший инструмент для композитора! Магия начинается с клавиш.)» (Ay! Ay. (This is the best instrument for a composer! The magic starts with the keyboard.))
Мурия «И-и-и... мы снова в тупике. Кулла, объяви уже!» (A-a-and... we're at a dead end again. Shiver, announce it already!)
Кулла «Сплат-раз, сплат-два, сплат-три... И СПЛАТФЕСТ! Поддержите «Ударные»!» (Splat-one, splat-two, splat-three... AND SPLATFEST! Support «Drums»!)
Мурия «ЭЙ! Лучше зажигайте с командой «Гитара»! Рифф-н-ролл!!!» (HEY! You better rock with team «Guitar»! Riff-n-roll!!!)
	Биг Ман «Ик! (Или откройте в себе креативную жилку с командой «Синтезатор»!)» (Ay! (Or discover a creative side within yourself with team «Synthesizer»!))
