The originator of the email chain was, unfortunately, Wilford Forbes, and the content was, to say the least, interestingly annoying.
After indirectly blaming PD Emily for the contestants spending the increased budget on the performance (she didn't care since Bing Yongsun supported her actions), Wilford Forbes proposed that, instead of proceeding as scheduled, they should add one more challenge, which would extend the show by at least another three weeks.
His reasoning?
So that the contestants could have an extra opportunity to show off their full skills without regrets in the United States.
It sounded good on paper, but PD Emily knew the real reason.
William was struggling.
With the current trend, William would barely survive entering the top 14, and if they went directly to the finals as planned, he wasn't going to make it into the top 7 needed for the debut lineup unless a miracle happened.
