Julie opened the studio door and said, "Thanks for coming. We just wanted to rehearse the song so it was perfect, which it's not, but whatever."

"No, if I'm gonna hear a song from your imaginary ghost band," Flynn did air quotes, "I want it to be perfect. So get back in there... All of you." She gestured to where Julie and Emily were. "You too."

Julie and Emily laughed. "They're not out here."

"Oh, I know." She entered and Julie closed the door.

"All right, guys, you ready?" Julie and Emily asked the ghosts.

"Yeah, of course we are," Luke replied.

"Yeah," Alex agreed. "We're going to rock this."

Reggie glanced between Julie and Emily. "Can you tell her to move? I need space to rock out."

Emily smiled lightly. "Actually, can you go over there, please? Reggie needs space to rock out and he feels weirded out walking through you."

Flynn laughed. "Boy, when you two create a world, you really live in it."

Julie sat Flynn down in a chair. "If you'll notice, there's no equipment here that will produce a hologram. Feel free to look around."

Julie went up to the piano, sighed, and said to Flynn, "The guys took a poem that I wrote about you and turned it into music."

Emily crossed her arms. "And my brother went through my desk. Not cool, Luke!"

Flynn crossed her arms. "Awe, I wish I didn't have to talk to your dad and Em's parents after this."

"It's called Flying Solo." She started playing on the beat pad.

Jade tapped her microphone to the beat.

The boys jumped in, causing Flynn to scream.

Julie and Luke sang into the same microphone and smiled at each other. Emily sang into her microphone.

The five sang and danced along.

Luke flipped his guitar over his shoulder with a grin.

Flynn gasped as she stuck her hand through Reggie who said, "Weird, right?"

"They're ghosts!" Flynn cried.

"Oh, we prefer, uh, musician spirits," Alex told her.

"Julie, Em, does this mean you'll both join our band?" Luke asked.

"Um, actually I think you're joining their band," Flynn corrected, causing Luke to shrug.

Julie and Emily grinned. "I'm gonna go with what she said."

Julie turned to their mutual friend. "Still wanna talk to my dad or Em's parents?"

"No, I'm good." The girls hugged.
