THE iDOLM@STER Anime Episode Idea: Episode Title: Prank Day! A Wonderful Time For Pranking!

Episode Information: Ami, Mami, and Yayoi begin to start calling this day, "Prank Day". They begin to start pulling pranks on everyone, but the one who was being pranked most of all was Iori. Eventually, Iori was getting really tired of getting pranked. She said, "You girls wouldn't be happy if I was dead in the first place!" In her living room, Iori gets an idea for what she said to Yayoi, Ami, and Mami. Iori decides to get back at Yayoi, Ami, and Mami to pull a prank no one would fall for, by playing dead. To start that all of, Iori writes a letter to Yayoi, Ami, and Mami to saying that she is dying because of their "painful pranks", so she wants them to pay their last moments with her. When it was sent, Yayoi, Ami, and Mami felt really bad for what they did to Iori. Iori gets inside her bedroom so she can pretend to be dying. Little did Iori know that Takane, Hibiki, and Miki came to Iori's bedroom so they can say goodbye. Yayoi says that she didn't mean to hurt her. Iori forgives her. So, Iori has a "dying request" before she "dies". Iori tells the girls to cancel Prank Day, and then, Iori "passes away". Yayoi shouts out a big no to think she killed her best friend. Miki tearfully mentions that Iori will be happy when she goes to "The Great Big Mansion In The Sky". Everyone mourns over Iori's "death" by crying over her. Iori's first phase of this prank worked. Iori's 2nd phase for her prank is to be putting herself in a coffin so the idols can give her a proper burial. At Iori's "funeral service", every other idol that known her are mourning over "death". Iori thinks that if flowers are served, she'll sneeze. The eulogy starts with Haruka. Later, Chihaya finishes her eulogy by saying, "Even though Iori is no longer with us, she'll always be alive in our hearts". So, the final person who wants to give a eulogy to Iori is Yayoi. Yayoi is terribly bawling during her eulogy for Iori. During her eulogy, she mentions that she didn't mean to kill her. After her eulogy, she brings out flowers to remember her by. Iori tries not to sneeze in 3 seconds, but she sneezes out of the coffin. Yayoi, Ami, and Mami are so happy to see their friend alive. Yayoi says she's sorry for trying to kill her. Ami and Mami still have to cancel Prank Day. Iori tells them not to. She says that they can still pull pranks, but never ever pull ones that can hurt someone. Yayoi wants to give her a Prank Day present. Iori opens it. It's a new pink dress. Iori wears it and thanks Yayoi and she hugs her. Everyone goes "Aw" and cheers at them. The episode ends with Iori saying, "You're the best friend an idol could ever have, and I love you" and Yayoi saying, "And you're the best friend an idol could ever have too, and I really love you too. Happy Prank Day."
