From Bureaucrat to Villainess episode 11 recap

The episode titled Dad Gets Into An Elegant Pickle began with Grace finding Anna in the library. On the night of the School Festival, Anna was tasked with the play, for which she spent the entire time at the library trying to compile information on how best to write the script. Sheer exhaustion caused her to collapse just as Grace found her. Worried, the blonde took Anna to the nurse's office to rest.

Upon regaining consciousness, Grace sat by her bed while Anna tucked into some much-needed food. But she had a sad expression, considering herself a failure for being unable to compose a script. Grace assured her otherwise, stating that she could seek help whenever she liked. A little later, Grace and Anna head out to look for someone with theatrical expertise.

Their search brings them to the Theatre Club. There, they are introduced to Francette Mercure or Fran. The girls inform her of the situation regarding the play, and she happily helps out. Moving forward, the trio examines past scripts and is drawn in by a particular script written by Jacqueline. In the real world, Hinako clarifies matters.

Originally, Fran was meant to be Anna's best friend. However, with Grace filling that role, Fran was moved into theatrical advisor. Now, with about two weeks before the festival, Grace presents an overview of the script and the final cast that was decided upon. To begin with, Grace would play the role of Prince Edmond, with Anna serving as the commoner Toby.

Due to the cross-gender rule, Richard would act as Toby's mother, Virgile stood as the Queen, Pierre would be a maid, Fairy Fee would be Virgile's brother Lucas, the redhead Auguste would be the knight Marielle, and finally Lambert would fill the role of the Queen's sister Simone. Before the final touch-ups, Grace went ahead to practice her role as Edmond.

However, she ended up struggling with the lines following the body swap, as it seemed to clash with her Elegant Cheat skill. To remedy this, she requested Fran to revise the script to highlight Anna more. Reading Jacqueline's script made Fran realize she had much work to do. The same night, Leopold informed Grace that Jacqueline was to attend the play, too, which was a great opportunity to see the Duchess.

As the festival drew closer, Grace was faced with another obstacle - the male Student Council members had other commitments to attend to, which would make group rehearsals nearly impossible.
