Story

T.J. Snapper loves to take pictures. He used to take a lot of pictures of his girlfriend who has a career in modeling. One day he got into race cars, and she suggested he take pictures of them for the local paper. He became obsessed with work, never taking pictures of his girlfriend, leaving her feeling a little lonely.

She decided to pull a prank on him, by going to racetrack and dressing up as one of the pit crew. As T.J. Snapper was taking pictures of race cars, she leapt in front of the camera, and to her surprise had her picture taken along with one of the cars. Although she wishes she could've "looked a little more presentable", she's satisfied with the result. She later wrote A Confession about this. In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, she appears in the Superb epilogue to Freeze Frame, having her picture taken along with the winner of the race.

T.J. Snapper by himself appears in Battle of the Bands pointing his camera at the Rockers from the audience. He appears along with his girlfriend in Rhythm Tengoku Gold Comic in 09 にぎやかでおだやかな夜の巻き (A lively and peaceful night), where a boy passes by T.J Snapper taking pictures of a fancy car, while his girlfriend initially looks displeased that he loves cars so much, but affirms that she loves him anyway. T.J. Snapper also appears in Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic in 33レスラーとファン (Wrestler and Fans), where he takes pictures of Wrestler and his fans as part of the Wrestler Fan Satsuei-kai (レスラーファン撮影会?, Wrestler Fan Photo Session).
