"I can't believe we've been here for three months." Kendall said as the five of them sat on lounge chairs by the pool.

"Three glorious months." Lilly smiled, grabbing Kendall's hand.

"Three glorious, fun-filled months." Carlos said.

"Three glorious, fun-filled, sun-filled months." James added.

"Let's all look up and think about them now." Logan said. The five teens then looked up, remembering a tricycle race they had. The five then rushed Carlos, who was in a bathtub, through the lobby. Then they remembered how they were all cornered in one of the cabanas by a bear

"Good times." Kendall and James said.

"And that was just today." Carlos said.

Kelly then walked up to the five teens. "Hey, guys. I just stopped by to drop off your tickets." She said, holding out five tickets.

"Oh, hockey tickets?" Logan asked.

"Concert tickets, hm?" James said, pointing finger guns at Kelly.

"Plane tickets. You guys do know that if your demos aren't picked by the record company tomorrow, you're going back to Minnesota." Kelly explained.

"What?" All five teens said together, sitting up straight.

The five teens immediately rushed into the studio, finding Gustavo by the control pannel. All of them spoke over each other as they stood in front of their producer.

"We don't want to go home. We want to stay here." Kendall said.

"And get famous." James added as the other four nodded.

"Yeah, about that... Too bad!" Gustavo yelled at the group. "It's been three months. The demos are done. That was the 'deal'." Gustavo explained.

"Right... What are demos again?" Carlos asked.

"They're the sample songs we've been recording that if the record company likes, then you get to stay here, make a full album, go on tour and then... ♪ You become famous ♪" Kelly explained, singing the last part.

"But if they don't pick it, I take over my father's scooter business, and you go back to Minnesota and be nobodies again." Gustavos said.

"Ah!" James yelped.

"But we've worked so hard. We're so close." Kendall tried.

"You're not so close." Gustavo said.

"We're almost there?" Logan asked, watching as Kelly and Gustavo shook their heads.

"Halfway there?" Carlos asked.

"You're almost halfway there. Now, I'm going to go to my office. Please do not follow me." Gustavo said and ran out of the studio, Kelly right behind him.

The five teens immediately ran after them. "How could Griffin not pick Big Time Rush? He loves us." James said as they all walked into the office.

"Griffin loves all the bands with demos, and there are six of them, but only one gets picked." Gustavo said.

"And the one that everybody is talking about is Vampirah." Kelly said, holding up a CD.

James yelped again as they looked at the CD. "Vampire dudes with guitars. Yep, we're toast." Lilly said.

"Hey, hey, hey, we are not toast. What's the one thing we've learned since we've been in LA?" Kendall asked.

"That black is the new black." James said.
