Meanwhile, back at Roque records, the Dogs and Kelly were organising the auditions and also planning ways to convince Gustavo to sign a new musician to his label.

Kendall: Okay so Kelly and I will start organising the auditions while you guys come up with a way to get Gustavo on board

Kelly: Actually, I already have everything we need for auditions organised...

BTR: {all stair at Kelly in surprise}

Kelly: What? I knew this day was coming and I just wanted to be prepared

Kendall: Okay I guess that leaves convincing Gustavo

Logan: {takes out a statistics chart} Okay, so I calculated the average number of sales different types of artist get and the highest selling ones are indie, pop rock and trap.

Kendall: how does that help us convince Gustavo?

Logan: Well, Gustavo likes being the best. So, if we show him that other writers and producers are getting more recognition than he is...

Kendall: ... he'll do whatever it takes to get back on top...

Kelly: By signing popular musicians

Logan: bingo!

Carlos: Wait, I still don't get it. How are we going to convince Gustavo Roque that there is a producer and/or song writer better than him, I mean its not like he will listen I we tell him

Logan: {smirks} that's why I called in the big guns

There is a sudden breeze in the hallway and at the other end, there she was; wearing dark sunglasses, A black, long-sleeved turtle neck with a silver chain, Black high-waist jeans and black high-top sneakers. She walked confidently towards them and they all knew, the moment they saw her, she was defiantly the one for the job.

Kendall: Good call...

Logan: I know.

Carlos: Gustavo doesn't stand a chance

James: Reality show, here I come

Gustavo: {walks in} Hey dogs I gonna need you to- {looks up and sees her} {Angrily} You...

Katie: Hello Gustavo, Missed me?

Gustavo: No! What is she doing here?!

Kendall: Well-

Katie: -I just came to tell you guys I cant be BTRs manager anymore

Gustavo: Okay first of all I am BTRs manager, And second of all, WHY NOT?!

Katie: They're just not selling as much as these new artists, indie, pop rock and trap is where its at. Plus, you're not the most popular producer/songwriter anymore...

Gustavo: WHAT! I AM GUSTAVO ROQUE! IM-

Katie: -Amazing? Yeah, not anymore...

Gustavo: BTR is trending all over the world and BTR is my band so I AM TRENDING ALL OVER THE WORLD!

Katie: Yeah...not really. You see BTR isn't famous cause of roque records anymore. Kendall is dating Jo; who is a really popular actress, James is dating Lucy; who has been named the Queen of rock by pop tiger, Logan got a medical degree while being in a boy boy band and was named genius of the year and Carlos set the world record for the most corn dogs stuffed in the mouth. No one even remembers the name Gustavo rock now

Gustavo: {Angrily takes out his phone} LOOK! I HAVE 500,000 FOLLOWERS!

Katie: yeah, Traci, with and I, is a songwriter and she has 15 million followers, Mitch snow, the current most popular producer, has 30 million followers, Kendall has 45 million, James has 42 million...

James: ...WHAT! Kendall has more followers than me! {Takes out his phone and starts to scroll through his social media in a panic}

Katie: ... Carlos has 36 million and logan; who is the least followed BTR member, has 30 million followers. Even Hawk; that weird producer who tried to kidnap and kill you guys a while back, He has 5 million followers

Gustavo: {cringes}

Katia: Face its Gustavo, you've lost your fire. Unless you sign a new artist that will make you popular again

Gustavo: {still cringing} Kelly, set up auditions in as many states as possible. We are going to find Roque's next super star {storms out}

Kendall: Katie! You did it

Katie: of course I did. {turns to logan} Pay up

Logan: {Takes out 200 dollars} here you go {gives Katie the money}

Katie: pleasure doing business with you {walks away}

Kendall: Hug mom for us.

Katie: Sure {Leaves}

Kelly: Okay, lets go shoot your audition advertisement

BTR: Our what?

Kelly: You know, and advertisement to let people know about the auditions

Kendall: You really had this planned out

Kelly: I told you, I like to be prepared

Logan: Oh, I can create a sign-up website so that we know how many people are auditioning and then post the link on our social media

Kelly: won't that take time, something we don't really have a lot of ...

Logan: Please, I can create websites in my sleep

Carlos: He actually did that once

Kelly: Hmm, okay then.

Logan started to created the website on the way to shoot the advertisement. James was still scrolling through his phone desperately attempting to gain more followers, he didn't even notice when the others left him alone in the hallway

James: {to himself} it just doesn't make sense; it has to be a glitch, right? There is no way Kendall has more followers than I do! Right guys? {looks up and notices everyone is gone} Guys? HEY! Wait for me!!
