3rd POV

At Snow and Meena's home.

"And you can see the lucky few leaving the theater behind me. Now back to you in the studio, John-" Bob said, as their mother turns off the TV. Meena sniffles.

Snow, Meena and their mom were making muffins. "Don't be sad, Meena." Snow said, as he tried to comfort her.

"Oh, honey, please don't cry. You and your brother are not a failure. There'll be other chances, you two just-" Their other said. "Bah! The heck, there will!" Their grandpa said, from the door.

"Dad, please." Their mom said. "Come on! Don't the two of you want this?" Their grandpa asked. "I mean, yeah." Snow said. "Well, sure, but we messed it up." Meena said.

"Then the two of you gotta go back there tomorrow and say, 'Mr. Moon, I demand you let me re-audition!' Be confident! Show 'em you ain't gonna be pushed around! You got that, Meena, Snow?" Their grandpa asked.

"Um..." Snow and Meena trailed off. "Good. Now go get my cocoa." Their grandpa said, as he grabbed some muffins, and went out of the kitchen.

At Ash and Lance's apartment. Lance was strumming his guitar.

I won't sell out for nobody, won't follow no fool.

"Would you stop? I'd only be doing it for us." Ash said. "Oh, really?" Lance said, as he chuckles.

"Yes, really. If I won that money, we could build our own recording studio, start our own label. I mean, the whole world would get to hear your songs." Ash said.

Lance continue to strum his guitar.

I'm not listening to my girlfriend
Cuz she just wants to sell out.

Ash groans, as she went out of the room.

Johnny got back to the garage, and went into a room.

"There he is! I got a surprise for you, my son." Big Daddy said. Johnny walks over to them. "What's that?" Johnny asked, as he saw the plan.

"Tell him the plan." Big Daddy said. Stan begins explaining the plan.

"Right. We've been told there's a ship carrying $25 million in gold gonna dock at night right here. With the usual guards here and here, but lucky for us, there's a sewer right under here. So, the getaway driver meets us here." Stan said.

"And that is gonna be you, this time, Johnny." Big Daddy said, as he shook Johnny's shoulders. "What? You want, you want me to drive?" Johnny asked.

"Yeah. It's time my boy had a proper role in the gang, eh?" Big Daddy said. "Hang on, hang on. Dad, Barry's always been our driver." Johnny said.

"Barry don't mind. Do you, Barry?" Big Daddy asked, as they look at Barry. "No. No, that's fine." Barry said. "Yeah." Big Daddy said.
