Shiver “What's most important in life? Money, fame, or love?”	Big Man “Aaay! (Ooo, that's a spicy topic!)”
Shiver “Let's start with money, shall we? If money can't buy it, I don't want it.”
	Frye “What about fame though? Legions of fans chanting your name... That's priceless!”
	Big Man “Ay? Ay! (Is any of it worth it without love? Love and peace for all!)”
	Big Man “...Ay? Ay! (...So, it's obviously love, right? Splatfest canceled!)”
Shiver “Awww, who knew Big Man was such a softy? It's me. I knew.”
	Big Man “Ay. Ay! (C'mon, Shiver. Love is important! Not just romance. Friends and family!)”
	Big Man “Aaay... (You don't want to live in solitude... even if you sleep on a pile of money.)”
Frye “But I thought you looooooved living by yourself, Big Man!”
	Frye “Anyway, if you get famous enough, you get hangers-on! Never lonely with them around!”
	Frye “We only get one life, right? I say go BIG with it! Anything else would be boring.”
Shiver “Eh. Being famous isn't fun if you're not also rich. Who pays for the fancy dinners?”	Frye “Oooh! Is it always all about food with you?”
Shiver “It's not just food. It's everything! Money buys it all! The world RUNS on money!”
	Big Man “Ay. Ay! (If I had money, I'd just spend it on the ones I love. Love is most important!)”
Frye “Well, popularity is a sort of love. Sorry-it's still fame for me.”
Shiver “Money buys fame. Fame is love. Money wins yet again. Put it in the bank.”

Frye “It was a popularity contest...and I lost? How could this happen?!”	Big Man “...Ay. (...I don't love this.)”
Shiver “Thank you to everyone on Team Money. You had an unlimited budget for effort!”
Frye “I mean, Team Fame had its moments. I hope they were filmed in 4K and shared on social!”	Big Man “Ay. Ay. Ay! (Awww. I just loved everyone on Team Love. Great work, friends!)”
Shiver “I guess that settles it. Deep Cut will now focus on getting rich. Billions or bust!”	Frye “If we DO get rich, promise me that we'll throw money out of a helicopter. So fun!”
Frye “Speaking of getting rich, I just KNOW there's still hidden treasure in the Crater...”	Big Man “Ay. Ay! (All we need to do is write a hit song, you two. Riches will surely follow!)”
Shiver “Well, what are you waiting for? Bust out the keyboard and start composing, Big Man!”	Big Man “Aaay...”
Shiver “Meanwhile, as our leader, I'll work on a plan. I hear good things about pyramid schemes...”	Frye “Woah, woah, woah. Who elected you leader? ...Say more about these schemes though...”

Haya “Waar draait het om in het leven? Geld, roem, of liefde?” (Which is most important in life? Money, fame, or love?)	Ray “Ay! (Oh, wat een diepzinnige vraag!)” (Ay! (Oh, what a profound question!))
Haya “Laten we beginnen bij geld. Als iets niet te koop is, is het de moeite niet waard, toch?” (Let's begin with money. If something is not for sale, it's not worth the effort, right?)
	Muriël “Wat dacht je van miljoenen fans die voor je juichen? Roem is onbetaalbaar!” (What do you think about millions of fans cheering for you? Fame is priceless!)
	Ray “Ay. Ay! (Maar daar heb je geen echte band mee. Ware liefde brengt je pas echt samen!)” (Ay. Ay! (But with them you have no real bond. True love only truly brings one together!))
	Ray “Ay. Ay? (Liefde overwint alle verschillen. Dus zullen we dit Splatfest annuleren?)” (Ay. Ay? (Love conquers all differences. So shall we cancel this Splatfest?))
Haya “Ah, wie had gedacht dat Ray zo'n grote romanticus was? Ik. Ik had dat wel gedacht.” (Ah, who would've thought Big Man was such a great romantic? Me. I would've thought that.)
	Ray “Ay. Ay! (Lach maar, Haya. Liefde gaat ook over familie en vrienden, niet alleen romantiek!)” (Ay. Ay! (Laugh all you want, Shiver. Love is also about family and friends, not just romance!))
	Ray “Ay? (Je wilt toch niet zielig en alleen als een kluizenaar op de top van je geldberg wonen?)” (Ay? (You surely don't want to live sad and alone like a hermit on top of your pile of money?))
Muriël “Huh. Ik dacht dat jij het fijn vond om op jezelf te wonen, Ray!” (Huh. I thought you enjoyed living on your own, Big Man!)
	Muriël “En voor gezelschap is geen liefde nodig. Als je beroemd bent, komt iedereen naar je toe.” (And for companionship there's no need for love. When you're famous, everyone will come to you.)
	Muriël “En je leeft maar één keer, toch? Dus ik zeg dat je er vol voor moet gaan!” (And you only live once, right? So I say you have to go full steam ahead!)
Haya “Bah, roem stelt niets voor zonder rijkdom. Hoe zou je bijvoorbeeld voor luxediners betalen?” (Bah, fame means nothing without wealth. How would you pay for luxurious dinners, for example?)	Muriël “Pfff. Het gaat bij jou ook echt altijd om eten, hè?” (Pfff. It really is always about food with you, eh?)
Haya “Als er iemand beroemd is om haar eetlust, ben jij het wel. Wil je dan geen geld voor snoep?” (If there's anyone famous for her appetite, it'd be you. Don't you want money for candy then?)
	Ray “Ay. Ay! (Liever een lege portemonnee dan een leeg hart. In het leven draait het om liefde!)” (Ay. Ay! (Rather an empty wallet than an empty heart. Love is most important in life!))
Muriël “Populair zijn is ook liefde, maar dan in het groot! Ik ga nog steeds vol voor de roem!” (Being popular is also love, but then on a large scale! I'm still going full steam ahead for the fame!)
Haya “Met geld word ik vanzelf beroemd en geliefd. Deze uitslag is al zo goed als gekocht!” (With money I naturally become famous and loved. This result is already as good as bought!)

Haya “Team Geld heeft dikke winst gemaakt!” (Team Money won big!)
Muriël “Hoe kan dat nou?! Wil dan niemand zo beroemd worden als ik?” (How could that be?! Doesn't anyone want to be as famous as me then?)	Ray “...Ay. (...Wat een liefdeloze uitslag.)” (...Ay. (...What a loveless result.))
Haya “Bedankt dat jullie alles gegeven en over de balk hebben gesmeten, team Geld!” (Thanks for giving and having splurged your folks all, team Money!)
Muriël “Nou, ondanks dat team Roem heel bekend is, hebben ze zich niet laten kennen!” (Well, despite team Fame being very well-known, they didn't lose their spirits!)	Ray “Ay! Ay! (En ook een dikke knuffel voor team Liefde! We hadden het heel leuk samen!)” (Ay! Ay! (And a big hug for team Love too! We had a lot of fun together!))
Notes: Frye makes a pun with the phrase zich niet laten kennen which literally translates to "to not let yourself be known."
Haya “Nu is in ieder geval besloten dat Deep Cut rijk gaat worden. Kom maar op met die miljarden!” (Now it has in any case been decided that Deep Cut will become rich. Come on with those billions!)	Muriël “Oké, maar als we rijk worden, gaan we dan op zijn minst geld uit een helicopter gooien?” (Okay, but if we become rich, are we at the very least going to throw money out of a helicopter then?)
Muriël “Als we geld willen, zijn er vast nog wel verborgen schatten te vinden in de krater.” (If we want money, there are surely still hidden treasures to be found in the Crater.)	Ray “Ay. Ay! (Of we schrijven een hit. Dan komt het geld vanzelf!)” (Ay. Ay! (Or we write a hit. Then the money will come naturally!))
Haya “Nou, waar wacht je nog op? Spring achter je keyboard en maak een hit, Ray!” (Well, what are you waiting for? Hop behind your keyboard and make a hit, Big Man!)	Ray “Ay...”
Haya “Als leider heb ik nog andere plannen. Piramide- spelen schijnen bijvoorbeeld veel op te leveren.” (As a leader I have yet other plans. Pyramid schemes seem to pay off big time, for example.)	Muriël “Ho, ho, ho, sinds wanneer ben jij de leider? En... hoe speel je die piramidespelen?” (Whoa, whoa, whoa, since when are you the leader? And... how do you play these pyramid schemes?)
Notes: Frye thinks Shiver refers to a game since piramidespelen ("pyramid schemes") is a compound word that has spelen ("games").

Кулла «Победа за командой «Деньги»!» (Victory for the team «Money»!)
Мурия «Мы соревновались в популярности, и я... проиграла?! НЕ-Е-ЕТ!» (We competed in popularity, and I... lost?! NO-O-O!)	Биг Ман «Ик... (Какая тут любовь...)» (Ay... (Love is out of question...))
Кулла «Команда «Деньги», мы молодцы! Плюхали противников пачками!» (Team «Money», we did great! We splatted the opponents in batches!)
Notes: Shiver's last sentense is a pun around the word "пачка" "pachka" ("pack", "batch", "stack", etc.) which is used in phrases such as "делать что-то пачками" ("to do something in batches", meaning "to do something a lot all at once") and "пачка купюр" ("a bundle/stack of banknotes").
Мурия «Команде «Слава» тоже удалось блеснуть! Надеюсь, фанаты опубликуют видео в соцсетях.» (Team «Fame» also managed to show off! I hope the fans will post the videos in social media.)	Биг Ман «Ик! Ик! (А я своей команде просто скажу: «Любовь» побеждает по умолчанию! Ура!)» (Ay! Ay! (And I'll just tell this to my team: «Love» wins by default! Hooray!))
Кулла «Ну что, решено. Deep Cut посвятит себя полностью увеличению прибыли!» (Well then, it's decided. Deep Cut will fully dedicate themselves to increasing profits!)	Мурия «Только обещай мне, если мы разбогатеем, мы выбросим хоть пару купюр из вертолета!» (Just promise me that, if we get rich, we'll throw at least a few banknotes out of a helicopter!)
Мурия «Кстати, про богатства: я точно ЗНАЮ, что в Кратере еще припрятаны сокровища...» (Speaking about the riches: I KNOW for sure that there are some treasures still hidden in the Crater...)	Биг Ман «Ик, ик! (Нам нужен всего лишь один хит, и деньги потекут рекой!)» (Ay, ay! (We only need one hit song, and money will flow like a river!))
Кулла «Ну и чего ты ждешь, Биг Ман? Плавники на клавиши, и вперед за новой песней!» (So what are you waiting for, Big Man? Fins on the keys, and go ahead for a new song!)	Биг Ман «И-и-к...» (A-a-y...)
Кулла «Раз я у нас теперь за главную, я что-нибудь придумаю. Как вам краудфандинг?» (Since I'm now the one in charge, I'll come up with something. What do you think about crowdfunding?)	Мурия «Эй, Кулла! Мы за тебя не голосовали! А вот про краудфандинг расскажи поподробнее...» (Hey, Shiver! We didn't vote for you! But regarding crowdfunding, tell is more...)

	Angie «¿Y la fama? Que miles de fans griten tu nombre... ¡eso no tiene precio!» (And fame? Having thousands of fans screaming your name... that is priceless!)
	Rayan «¿Zasss? (Pero ¿qué importa todo eso si no lleva a una vida llena de amor?)» (Ay? (But what does all that matter if it doesn't lead to a life full of love?))

Megan «¡Ja! Qué tierno eres, Rayan.» (Ha! How tender you are, Big Man.)
	Rayan «¡Zasss! (¡Lo digo en serio, Megan! ¡El amor es lo más importante del mundo!)» (Ay! (I'm serious, Shiver! Love is the most important in the world))
	Rayan «Zasss... (A nadie le gusta sentirse solo, aunque duerma en una cama de oro).» (Ay... (Nobody likes to feel lonely, even though they sleep in a gold bed.))
Angie «¡Pero siempre dices que te encanta vivir solo, Rayan!» (But you always say that you love living alone, Big Man!)
	Angie «En fin, con la fama, la soledad no existe. ¡Para eso están las legiones de fans!» (In the end, with fame, loneliness doesn't exist. That's what legions of fans are for!)
	Angie «Todo se trata de no aburrirse y disfrutar al máximo. Solo se vive una vez, ¿no?» (Everything is about not getting bored and enjoying life to the fullest. You only live once, right?)
Megan «La fama no sirve de nada si viene sin dinero. ¿Cómo le pagas al chef privado» (Fame is useless if it comes without money. How do you pay the private chef?)	Angie «Ay, siempre con la comida...» (Uh, always with the food...)
Megan «¡No hablo solo de comida! ¡Sin dinero no se consigue nada! ¡Es lo que mueve el mundo!» (I'm not just talking about food! Without money, you can't achieve anything! It's what moves the world!)
	Rayan «Zasss. (Yo digo que el dinero solo sirve para hacer felices a mis seres queridos).» (Ay. (I say that money only serves to make my loved ones happy.))
Angie «Pues la fama se parece mucho al amor si entrecierras los ojos. ¡Que me adulen, y ya!» (Well fame is a lot like love if you squint your eyes. Let it flatter me, and there!)
Megan «¡Y el dinero compra la fama y el amor! Ya verán, al final siempre gana el dinero.» (And money buys fame and love! You'll see, in the end, money always wins.)
Notes: Shiver uses the saying "El dinero compra la fama y el amor" ("Money buys fame and love") which is equivalent to saying "money buys happiness".

Trivia

• This Splatfest's theme has been featured in every game in the Splatoon series so far; it succeeds the Love vs. Money Splatfest from Splatoon and the Money vs. Love Splatfest from Splatoon 2.
  • This variant of the Splatfest theme is the first time the theme was available in all regions, as Love vs. Money was Japan-exclusive and Money vs. Love was North America and Oceania-exclusive.
  • This variant of the Splatfest theme marks the first time Team Love has lost.
• Shiver's Splatfest choice aligns with her hobby of counting money, which was mentioned in The Art of Splatoon 3.
• When Callie represents Team Love and Marie represents Team Fame, the Squid Sisters' ink colors resemble their signature ink colors.
• The song Big Betrayal released shortly after this Splatfest's conclusion centers around an argument between Deep Cut regarding Big Man having secretly collaborated with the Squid Sisters. Each idol's main concerns in the translated portion of the argument reflect the stances they held in this Splatfest.
  • Shiver is concerned with Big Man making money without giving his bandmates a cut, in alignment with her representing Team Money.
  • Frye is concerned with Big Man's association with the Squid Sisters damaging Deep Cut's reputation amidst Inkopolis and Splatsville's ongoing rivalry, in alignment with her representing Team Fame.
  • Big Man is concerned with helping build friendly relations between Inkopolitan and Splatlandian musicians through music collaborations, in alignment with him representing Team Love.
• The end of the results dialogue, in which Shiver asserts that she is the leader and Frye questions her, may have been foreshadowing the next Splatfest, Shiver vs. Frye vs. Big Man, over who would be the best leader.
