At The Le Grand Paris Hotel.

3rd Person's POV.

Jagged Stone is performing a song on his guitar for Bob Roth and Penny Rolling. He finishes his performance with a pose while singing "Mah Miraculous!"

Penny applauds while Bob watches with crossed arms "So, what do you think of the first single of my next album? Can you feel it, Bob? Isn't it killer?" he asked with a smile.

"Not bad, Jagged, not bad. But if you really want to be making something killer, let's talk about this duet with Mr. XY," Bob proposed, showing him an album cover for XY's music.

A frown takes over Jagged's face immediately "No way. He's not a rocker, he's a baby! I bet he doesn't even shave yet."

"Well, this 'baby', " Bob said with his fingers, "just pushed you out of the number one sales spot."

"And? Doesn't make him a true musician like me. Penny thinks everything I'm doing's rock star material. She thinks I'm killer."

"Penny might be your agent, but I'm your real boss! Listen. Bottom line is that Bob Roth Records cannot afford to be number two in sales! Or rep a number two rock star! Get real, Jagged! You're going to have to modernize your music. Change the way you look. Get a whole new style!" Bob says turning his back to Jagged.

"You want to talk about real? I'm a genuine rock 'n' roller, Bob, not some pop star in diapers. I'm a real artist. Real talent! Even my hair is real. And that's what people love about me," he slides on the ground to Fang "Isn't that right, Fang? Yeah." turning back to Bob "And the artwork you came up with for my album is a waste of my time! Seriously, Bob, what is this trash? It looks like a perfume ad!"

Pointing a finger at Jagged's chest Bob says "And that's what people want these days!"

"Well, I don't. My album covers are raw to the bone, exuding the smell of sweat and leather!" Jagged says placing his hands around Bob's shoulder.

Bob pushes Jagged away from him "You do know, don't you, that if your next album doesn't rate No. 1 on the charts, it'll be the last one you ever do with Bob Roth records," he says.

Jagged folds his hand and looks away from him "I'd rather put out nothing at all than sing some pathetic duet with a baby-faced nobody."

Penny finally intervenes "Bob, Jagged and I had an idea. Its concept is modern, but it also respects Jagged's own...rugged style."

 Jagged takes off his glasses and shows them to Bob "The schoolgirl who made these glasses has some real talent. She totally gets my style. She's gonna design the cover of my new album," Jagged declared.

"A schoolgirl?"

"See? That's just it. She's the same age as the target audience,"  she holds out a piece of paper "Here's her address."

Bob folds his arms and growls, making Fang growl in return. Bob jumps away from Fang in alarm, takes the piece of paper, and begins to leave the room "Okay! But just think about that duet with Mr. XY!"

"Find that girl, Bob!" Jagged says in return.
