Xiomara exuded a sense of shyness when not performing.
Pausing thoughtfully, she seemed eager to clarify, saying, "I don't have formal training in acting, but I'm diligently studying now.

Carole, viewing things from the audience's perspective, offered sconstructive feedback.
Xiomara humbly accepted, keen to improve.
Then, Kristy's voice cut in, less harmoniously, "It's truly remarkable.

And Selah, being a judge, did you have a sneak peek at the talent show's detailed plans?" Kristy's words sounded like a compliment to Xiomara, but her real intent was to stir the pot.
She suggested to everyone that Xiomara had an unfair advantage, thanks to Selah's help, explaining her great performance. The stufell silent, then filled with murmurs.
Everyone thought the act was prepared beforehand.
Maybe Selah had leaked the show details to Xiomara.
Could Sumner be involved too...
Suddenly, the mood changed.
The friendly vibe was lost, replaced by doubtful, critical looks from the audience.
In a decisive moment, Selah casually remarked, "If Kristy is curious about this, I'm sure others are too. So, Wendy, why not cup with a new thright now?"
