After a quick chat with Jamie, where they agreed to meet up in a couple of days when Ari wasn't so sick, Ari spent some time completing his phone call errands.
First, he messaged Grandma Kim and Grandma Lisa, promising to see them after the next filming session when he wasn't sick.
Then, he spent time calling his school and easily convinced them that he was still sick since he was coughing his lungs out every 3 seconds.
After agreeing to take his missed quizzes at the end of the week if he was feeling better, Ari went to visit Priest Steven Choi before forcibly cleaning the church like he was supposed to.
He then dragged his feverish body to the bathhouse while wearing a regular face mask and a baseball hat instead of the snail mask he usually wore.
He doubted that the people who visited would watch an idol survival show and recognize him, but he didn't want to take any chances.
