Buster: Whoa, whoa. Back up. Your nana is still alive?

Eddie: Oh, yeah. (He kicks the surfboard revealing a picture of himself, his parents, and Nana who is old.)

Pippa: Wow. And she's rich, right?

Eddie: She's loaded. But trust me, you don't wanna go near my nana. (shudders) She is one mean sheep.

Mike: They're maybe trouble at hand. But while there's Moonlight and music and love and romance.

Buster: Now fade up the spot.

Mike: And dance.

Pippa: Good. Lower the moon.

Miss Crawly: Coffee?

Buster: Thank you, Miss Crawly.

(cable creaks)

Pippa: Okay, that's normal. Just needs a knock.

(Meena knocks the cable)

Buster: See? You're getting it.

Mike: And while it's still got a chance.

Miss Crawly: Anyone seen my glass eye? The darn thing keeps popping out.

Pippa: (spits the glass eye by accident)

Mike: Soon... Whoa!

Miss Crawly: Oh!

Mike: You almost killed me, jumbo!

Meena: It wasn't me.

Mike: Oh, is that so? (screams)

Meena: (yells)

Buster: Pete?

Pete: (groans)

Pippa: (gasps)

Pete: (moaning)

Buster: Pete, you're going to be fine! Just hang in there, buddy!

(indistnct arguing)

Pippa: Ricky? Kai?

Howie: (crying)

Buster: Why aren't you guys rehearsing?

Howie: We're through! They said I'm an intolerable ego maniac! I don't even know what that means!

Pippa: All right.. We're two acts down. Give me some good news, Miss Crawly.

Miss Crawly: Oh, it's not as bad as it looks.

(cracks)

Miss Crawly: Oopsie-daisy.

Buster: (sighs) Meena, how would you like to re-audition for the show?

Meena: Really? Well, yeah.

Pippa: Great!

Meena: I mean, no.

Buster: What?

Meena: I mean, yes, I can sing. But, no, I get so nervous and I can't do it. I mean, I would totally do it, but... (stammers) No, I... No.

Pippa: I'm gonna take that as a maybe.

Maddie: You can do this sis!

(Q-Teez giggles)

(Japanese music playing)

Buster: Great! Look, they're back! We're gonna come back to this, Meena.

(Pop music playing)

(music stops)

Pippa: Listen, guys, forget what I said before. You are very talented. Please, join the show. Okay? Yes? No? Oh, um... Here... (speaking Japanese)
