ITEMS TO GET: 184 gil, additional gil (depends on performance)
VIVI and Pack are now on the roof of the church. Head north across the plank, then west across the next one. It drops as VIVI walks across it, but he escapes in time. Search the trash can for 29 gil, then proceed north. Talk to Pack and you'll finally be given the chance to name VIVI. Continue north and descend the steps, then go east one roof and south one roof. Head all the way right and collect the 63 gil from the trash can. Return to the steps and ascend. Now go as far north as you can and root through the trash there for another 92 gil. Go south one roof, then continue south along the eastern plank. Head right and then up. When you reach the end of the screen, an FMV sequence will start.
The action switches back to Zidane, who's participating in Tantalus' production of King Lear. Zidane, Frank, Shina, and Marcus end up battling Baku and the minotaur Brothers -- Zenero and Benero -- as part of the play. First, take out the two minotaurs with regular attacks; one or two hits will finish off each one. Then attack Baku; he has about 150 HP. Your characters are each armed with a fictious spell -- Zidane has Medeor, Frank and Shina have Firada, and Marcus has Poly. None of these spells do any damage, so don't waste your time using them.
The play continues for another scene, then Zidane and Frank end up in a mock swordfight. This mini-game is rather simple; you simply have to tap the buttons and directions that appear over Frank's head. If you hit the wrong button -- or don't hit one in time -- either Zidane or Frank will fall down. After 50 button presses, Zidane and Frank run off, and you're given a score. (Your score is the first number that appears in the dialog box.) Your score is based on the number of correct button presses you made and how quickly you did so; the maximum is 100. Selecting the top option allows you to retry the event to shoot for a higher score; selecting the bottom option accepts the score you have.
Zidane is awarded an amount of gil based on his score (a higher score nets you more gil, of course), and then he and Frank race off into the castle.
