Yeah, I know. The thing is, all the episodes between the series premiere and this one were used to build up the characters, plot and mechanics of the Aikatsu Stars! universe. Episode 10, however, is the first episode to actually benefit from all these build-ups; as a result the narrative of this episode was superb from beginning to finish. Also, it even managed to include traits from all the three major idol series in the past (Aikatsu, Pretty Rhythm and Love Live) into its plot. Amazing. Just pure brillant writing by the staff.
