This story is written in the form of a diary entry of the twins Ruby and Garnet. After their mother Opal's death when they were just 7 Ruby and Garnet were looked after by their grandmother who they lovingly call gran and father Richard.

The twins find an article about auditions for a TV adaptation of The Twins at St. Clare's, and Ruby is keen to go ahead and audition, even though Garnet and their father do not agree. Surprisingly, Rose is supportive, although her efforts are for nothing, as Garnet and Ruby have to run away to London to audition.
