Not first in the usual JEs.  I think the bits in parentheses are actually central to the meanings.

  Comments:
"to pretend" should be a separate sense. Also, the glosses for the third sense we have seem to be 
specifically for 失敗/醜態を演じる. They're common usages, so glossing the verb that way is probably useful, 
but I think we should lead with "to behave" per the kokugos/gg5.
