Malaysian Idol is the Malaysian version of the Idol Series that started in UK, similar to shows such as UK's "Pop Idol" and "American Idol" in the franchise.
 This show is a contest to determine the best young singer in Malaysia, with the winner receiving a major record deal, although some runners-up have achieved enough fame to ink record deals of their own.
 Like any other "Idol" show, the winner is decided by public votes.
 The "Malaysian Idol" series has gained a following in Malaysia from people of all ages partly due to their interest in American Idol which had been introduced a few years prior.
 Malaysian Idol has been broadcast to Malaysian viewers via terrestrial television, 8TV and TV3.

 The episode was written by series creator Theresa Rebeck and directed by Michael Morris.
