Author POV

At Le Grand Paris...

Jagged Stone is performing a song on his guitar for Bob and Penny rolling.

Jagged Stone: Mah Miraculous!

Penny applause while Bob watches with crossed arms.

Jagged: So, what do you think of the first single off my next album? Can you feel it, Bob? Isn't it killer?

Bob: Not bad, Jagged, not bad. But if you really want to be making something killer, let's talk about this duet with Mr. XY.

Jagged: No way. He's not a rocker, he's a baby! I bet he doesn't even shave yet.

Bob: Well, this "baby" just pushed you out of the number one sales spot.

Jagged: And? Doesn't make him a true musician like me. Penny thinks everything I'm doing's rock star material. She thinks I'm a killer.

Bob: Penny might be your agent, but I'm your real boss. Listen. Bottom line is that Bob Roth Records cannot afford to be number two in sales! Or rep a number two rock star! Get real, Jagged! You're going to have to modernize your music. Change the way you look. Get a whole new style!

Jagged: You want to talk about real? I'm a genuine rock 'n' roller, Bob, not some pop star in diapers. I'm a real artist. Real talent! Even my hair is real. And that's what people love about me. Isn't that right, Fang? Yeah. 

He said to Fang then turning back to Bob and continues.

Jagged: And the artwork you came up with for my album is a waste of my time! Seriously, Bob, what is this trash? It looks like a perfume ad!

Bob then pointing a finger at Jagged's chest

Bob: And that's what people want these days!

Jagged: Well, I don't. My album covers are raw to the bone, exuding the smell of sweat and leather.

Bob: You do know, don't you, that if your next album doesn't rate #1 on the charts, it'll be the last one you ever do with Bob Roth records.

Jagged: I'd rather put out nothing at all than sing some pathetic duet with a baby-faced nobody.

Penny: Bob, Jagged, and I had an idea. Its concept is modern, but it also respects Jagged's own...rugged style.

Jagged takes off glasses and shows them to Bob and said.

Jagged: The schoolgirl who made these glasses has some real talent. She totally gets my style. She's going to design the cover of my new album alongside with American singer and Model.

Bob: A schoolgirl? And American singer and model...you mean Y/N?

He asks confused

Penny: See? That's just it. She's the same age as the target audience. 

She holds out a piece of paper as she continues

Penny: Here's her address.

Bob folds arms and growls but Fang growls in return making him jumps away from Fang in alarm, takes the piece of paper, and begins to leave the room

Bob: Okay! But just think about that duet with Mr. XY.

Jagged: Find those girls, Bob!

At the bakery...

Bob is speaking with you and Marinette in front of Tom and Sabine.

Bob: So, are you interested?
