Umi is suddenly the most nervous, paranoid person in the group now... used to be Hanayo that was the nervous one. After they get to America, they have to split up into 3s and ride a cab to the hotel... Umi is scared because she only has a note and no way of communicating... and it turns out Honoka misspelled the name of the Hotel and Umi's group got dropped off at the wrong place.. But Rin remembered the name of the hotel and managed to get them there somehow.
The group spends a whole day wandering the city looking for where they'd prefer to hold their live performance... This whole event lets them forget about the fact that they have to graduate/split apart soon... Eventually Hanayo bursts out into tears because all the places they've eaten at so far didn't have Japanese white rice.. so they went to a Japanese restaurant for dinner...
Then when they get on the subway to head back to the hotel, Honoka falls behind and then accidentally gets on the wrong train. She gets off at a random station and realizes she's lost... then wanders around randomly until she finds another Japanese girl singing in a solo street performance. This girl used to be in a Japanese idol group just like her... she talks to Honoka and gives her some tips about finding out what to do after the group splits up...
When they get back to Japan (not even half way through the movie), they're surprised to find out they are now super famous and they're overseas live performance is on a bunch of posters and video displays... They are now at the same level as A-RISE... They aren't used to getting so much attention from random strangers, and Umi seems to be freaked out by it.
Also Honoka's family business got increased sales because of her popularity, so she tells her sister she's gonna go and ask for allowance money.
When they return to school, all their classmates constantly bug them asking for when their next concert is... they don't know that they plan to break up after they graduate.. Maki theorizes that the fans don't even really care whether they are "school" idols or not... Nozomi suggests they have to hold a concert and use that opportunity to tell everyone that they are breaking up... then she eyes Maki when talking about what song they'll use... earlier in the movie Nozomi accidentally looked at Maki's song book she was secretly writing for personal reasons...
But just when they start talking about this, Kotori's mom comes in and says that the big Love Live event coming up wants muse to participate and continue being school idols... The group starts arguing about it... if they keep their promise and end muse when the 3rd-years graduate, then this next Love Live event might not succeed without them... Honoka is the most stressed out by this decision...
Honoka gets a message from A-RISE, telling her to come meet them... they want to know what muse has decided... A-RISE decided to remain idols even after graduating, and they give Honoka a card for the company that hired them... Later, Honoka somehow meets that singing girl again that she met in America... Honoka tries to invite her to her house... the girl refuses and just asks Honoka if she has made up her mind yet about what to do in the future... Then it goes into this flowery dream world that is reminiscent of the first scene in the movie where Honoka tries to long-jump over a puddle. It turns out this meeting was all just Honoka's dream.. and meanwhile, Eli texts Honoka, telling her the 3rd years have decided they still want to end muse after they graduate. This helps Honoka come up with an answer... when they meet ontop of the roof to practice again, they know they all have the same answer without even needing to say it.
However, Honoka surprises them by saying they should all still attend the Love Live event. She wants to help show everyone how great school idols are... Her idea seems to involve getting a bunch of other school idol groups together and convincing them to join them in a huge collab performance. From then on, Honoka is her usual genki self, and puts on an inspirational speech in front of all the other idols the day before the concert, telling them about how muse is ending... this allows them to go through with the Dome concert without any worries...
Then at the end, the new school idol group lead by Honoka's sister, sets up the stage for muse's last proper school concert...
