Buster was on the phone with Rosita telling her about what he is planning.

Rosita: "We are? Seriously? Oh my gosh. Okay yes. I'll be right over." She puts one of her piglets on Norman and leaves. Buster calls Johnny.

Johnny: "Hello? Oh hello Mr. Moon." He skateboards out of his garage.

Alvin: "Guys, Mr. Moon called! We're still doing the show!" The others cheer.

Bob (News Reporter): "Some say he's the worst showman this city has ever seen. Some say he's a walking disaster, a loose cannon. Well tomorrow night, the name Buster Moon will go down in entertainment history once and for all, as he and this bunch of bumbling amateurs attempt to re-stage the show that brought down his theater."

Everyone rushes to the Moon Theater with smiles on their faces. Miss Crawly put up flyers for the show on a train map and on the back of a hippo's shirt.

Rosita shows them the blueprints and tells them how to construct the stage. All of them had a part to play in reconstructing the stage. While they put everything back together, they also rehearsed for the big show that night. Mike on the other hand spoke with Buster.

Buster: "Ah don't you worry Mike. All is forgiven. Just glad that you're back in one piece."

Mike: "Oh, you're too kind, Mr. Moon. And uh, the prize money, I mean it's real this time, right?"

Buster: "There is no prize money cuz there's no competition. Tonight you're singing for yourselves." He calls the rest while Mike stands there.

Mike: "Singing for ourselves? Unbelievable. Who is he... what, this is... I'm out of here."

Carla: "Wait, Mr. Moon. I can't do this."

Buster: "What do you mean? Something wrong?"

Carla: "I can't sing. Not in front of an audience. I'm just like Meena, I can't do it."

Buster: "Yes you can. I told her this, don't let fear stop you from doing the thing you love."

Pedro, Nico, and Roberto were watching them talk. They all agree to one thing.

Carla: "No, I can't. I'm not ready."

Roberto: "Yes you are. Because we will sing with you. All you need is some help."

Carla smiles. Buster agrees with them. "Okay, if that is the only way, then we can work with it. You guys will start us off then.

Miss Crawly tries inviting people to go inside to watch the show. However, she's speaking to them on the megaphone close up. So they walk away.

Buster: "Hey, how's our new stage hands getting on?"

Meena: "They're learning fast."

Eddie (yelling): "All set and standing by. I love this headset!"

Po: "Okay, you don't have to yell. We're ready when you are, Buster."

Miss Crawly walks towards them. "The audience are in their seats, Mr. Moon."

Balto: "How about that? She actually got an audience to come in."

Buster: "Great!" He looks through the curtain to see who was there. It was only Meena's family, Carla's family, and Rosita's family. Plus a few others sitting towards the middle or back. Buster walks away. Rosita peaks through the curtain to see her kids wandering around and being rowdy while Norman tries telling them to stop. She smiles.

Bob was there covering the action on the news. "Well John, I've covered many disasters on this network, but this is sure to..." The lights dim and the trumpet blows. "Oh, they're about to start.
