Once you find her at the Theater Hall, recreate the Housedance. Afterwards, head to the Mall’s second area and you’ll get a message to look for Shine in the warehouse.

Coil
You can locate Coil further down the main strip in an alleyway on the right side of Mataan. After finding him, mimic his dance moves. Next, head towards the large gold statue, and you'll receive a text message that Coil is now at the Mataan River. When you arrive at the river, he won't be there, so you'll need to backtrack to the entrance of the strip. There, you'll receive another message from him, informing you of his return to Mataan.
Upon entering the golden statue, you'll spot him dancing on your left. He'll then challenge you to a race. Coil will offer to join your team once you beat him.
