Monster is going around Mask City, asking every Mask if they want to help him rehearse his new song, "This Is my kingdom come" by Demons Running. All if the Masks said no, except for Thingamajig, who has just finished playing basketball with Watchamacallit and Orca when Monster popped out of nowhere. "Bye Watcha! By Orca!" Said Thingamajig as he waved to his friends. "Hey Thing! I need your help. I'm rehearsing a new song. And yes, I really need your help. Can you help me do my rehearsal? It will be great if we still sung songs together!" Said Monster upon seeing Thingamajig. Thingamajig saw Monster and said "Oh My Eye! It's you! Hey Monster!" "Hey Thingamajig! Nice knowing you there! There is not enough time! We need to go to my house!" Says Monster. "On it!" Says Thingamajig and the 2 monsters made their way to Monster's house, where Miss Monster and Grandpa Monster are having tea when Monster barged through the doors with Thingamajig following behind. "Hey Monster! I made some Monster Tea while you are away! Want to try some?" Said Grandpa Monster. "Not right now," Said Monster, "I have a rehearsal to do!" Thingmajig agreed, saying "Yeah! Do a rehearsal!" Monster took Thingamajig to the recording studio in the wall where songs are recorded and then turned into records. "This is where we rehearse our songs!" Says Monster, "Why don't you step into the recording studio? I'll play the music!" Thingmajig gulped and went into the recording studio where he is placed sitting in front of a hanging microphone sitting right above his face. Thingamajig closey moved his head to where the microphone should be. "Check!" Says Thingamajig as he touches the microphone and it clicks. "Check to you!" Says Monster, putting on his headphones and making sure it fits right, "Recording starts in 3, 2, 1, ACTION!" Monster hits the record button and the voice recorder starts recording Thingamajig's singing voice. Thingamajig sings. "When the days are cold and the cards all fold and the saints we see are all made of gold. When your dreams all fail and the ones we hail are the worst of all and blood's run stale." Thingamajig sang as the recorder records and music from This is my kingdom come plays. "When you feel my heat look into my eyes, it's where my demons hide, it's where my demons hide." Thingamajig continued. Thingamajig kept singing and singing until the song ends. After the song has ended, Monster took off the headphones and sang the last notes of the song in an all capella voice of "La la la". "Amazing voice Thing! Amazing Voice!" Says Monster. Monster lets Thingamajig out of the recording studio. Just as Thingamajig is let put of the studio, Miss Monster comes into the recording studio. "Monster, you kept this a secret all along?!" Says Miss Monster. "Uh, no." Says Monster. "No. Not a secret at all." Says Thingamajig, putting his hand over Monster's mouth. Monster, with his mouth covered by Thingamajig, says in a muffled voice to Miss Monster "Um, Ok, this is not a secret but this is how my life comes to its climax." "A climax?" Says Miss Monster with an angry groan. Miss Monster takes Monster by his neck. "Why Why Why?!" Yells Miss Monster. "Sorry, I mean, my secret has been kept for many years." Says Monster with his voice raised. "OK then, maybe we should go to my house." Says Thingamajig. "Good idea, Thing." Says Monster. The 2 monsters go to Thingamajig's house, leaving Miss Monster to go sit back with Grandpa Monster. "What's wrong little girl?" Says Grandpa Monster. "Monster bullied me into thinking I've found out his secret." Says Miss Monster, "I don't think monsters are that good at bullying Masks." "It's OK Miss Monster," Says Grandpa Monster, "it's gonna be alright when you grow up." Miss Monster know has the truth in her eyes (or eye, since the Monster family only have one eye in their bodies). Monster and Thingamajig meanwhile go to Thingamajig's house, where Thingamajig practices his basketball skills. Thingmajig then shows Monster his basketball tricks. "Watch me!" Says Thingamajig as he tries to shoot a basketball into the hoop. He does a backwards flip towards the hoop and shoots the basketball into the hoop upon a successful flip. "Amazing basketball trick! Can you do backwards flips during a basketball match?" Says Monster. "Thanks, but I'll have to go back to my basketball practice, would you like to help me?" Says Thingamajig. "I would love to!" Says Monster. The 2 monsters get together. Monster becomes Thingmajig's basketball couch while Thingamajig practices his dodges and shoots. Monster cheers as Thingamajig wins more shoots. "Amazing! Great! Excellent!" Exclaims Monster every time a shoot is scored. "Thank you Monster, I appreciate your roar!" Says Thingamajig, "but there is not too much time now, you have to go home and don't worry, I'll come over to play basketball with you, would you?" "Oh yes, I have to go. Thank you for having me by the way, Thing. You are the best! Anyways, I gotta zoom off! See you later, alligator!" Says Monster as he passes through the gate outside the basketball court near Thingamajig's house. "See ya, Monster! We will meet again!" Says Thingamajig as he waves goodbye to Monster. Monster waves back and leaves to have dinner with the other Monster Masks at his house. Thingamajig then keeps practicing his basketball skills until a voice calls him. "Dinnertime!" Says a lady voice. Flamingo comes around, holding a plate of biscuits with pictures of a basketball drawn on it using chocolate sauce. "Thanks for the dinner, Flamingo!" Says Thingamajig after taking a bite of a biscuit. "I agree with my freshly baked basketball biscuits! They sure bring out the eye of the tiger in you!" Says Flamingo, taking a biscuit. "I sure love the chocolate sauce on the biscuit!" She says after taking a bite. The 2 Masks then chat about their times as they go inside to eat more biscuits. Some where away from Thingamajig's house, Cluedle-Doo is singing "The edge of glory" by Lady Gaga until he accidentally awakens Mother Nature. "Qho dares sing a song so loud it trickles through my vines?!" Says Mother Nature as flowers and vines grow all around her. "I didn't ment to wake up you, I was just singing myself a song." Says Cluedle-Doo, singing the final lyrics of the edge of glory. Mother Nature then traps Cluedle-Doo in a cage of vines. "Help! Help!" Says Cluedle-Doo ina bid for survival. He tries to kick away the vines but they are way too strong to be kicked away. Mother Nature then brings Cluedle-Doo closer to her and says "You must be Rooster!" "No, my name's not Rooster, I am Cluedle-Doo!" Says Cluedle-Doo. Cluedle-Doo starts to sing "La la la" when Mother Nature orders the vines to squeeze Cluedle-Doo. "OK, I'll stop!" Cluedle-Doo said on the last note. The vines disappear and Cluedle-Doo starts to feel better. Mother Nature then tells Cluedle-Doo "Is there an edge of glory?" Cluedle-Doo answers "I swear, all of the Masks have the grace and loyalty in their hearts. I even have myself some courage." Cluedle-Doo then goes towards Mother Nature to speak into her ear. "And the truth is, you made the music!" He whispers into Mother Nature's ear. "Wha?! You mean, I created all the Boom boxes and radios did you mean?!" Says Mother Nature after the whispering. Cluedle-Doo says "How? You brought the radios to life with nature, I mean, how would flowers grow on Boom boxes? How?!" Mother Nature Says "It's cool, just look at me, you are the best thing yet, right?" "Right! I knew it!" Says Cluedle-Doo. "That does it!" Exclaims Mother Nature, "We shall now be friends!" "Hooray!" Says Cluedle-Doo happily. The 2 Masks held hands and walked off into the sunset. They worked together to make flowers and nature grow on top of Mask City radios and Boom Boxes. When everyone woke up the next morning, their radios are bringing nature to their wildlife! Everyone got shocked as flowers grew on every Boom Box! "What?! Flowers?! On my radio?!" Says Monster wide eyes with shock. "It's just how nature feels..." says Baby Alien as he zooms around to see all the nature growing. Everyone is proud about nature, they began singing "I'm coming out" by Diana Ross. When the song comes to the best point, Mother Nature appears at the right moment to sing her favourite line of the song "I'm coming out. I want the world to know. I got to let it show." After the song ends, a portal opens in front of Monster and Thingamajig. The sing the last words of I'm coming out before entering the portal, disappearing a shinging ball of light.
