Throughout an old castle, there was a faint, childlike laughing that can be heard throughout the place. The camera zooms in toward one of the doors. The castle outside the camera zooms out of Sonic's mouth as he yawns from his reclining place atop one of the battlements. Lilly is sitting next to Life who is next to Sonic drawing into her sketchbook in the zone while Lindsey Thorndyke is preparing for a shoot for her movie. The Director comments to Lindsey "You were fantastic in that last take, Lindsey, but I would like to give it one more go. Take it slower, and let those tears go this time." Then he turns to the lead actor. "And Roger, please try to show some feeling this take." The cameraman states "Oops, it's still a bit blurry." Chris and his friends and Ella are attending the film shoot. Ella approaches wearing a different outfit, and her hair is done up. Amy looks at her confused "Ella? What's with that outfit and what happened to your hair?" "Did Mom get you a part in the movie?" Chris asked. "Yes. They needed someone to play an extremely young and beautiful housekeeper, so they type-cast me. How do I look?" The Director shouts out "All right, let's go. Places, please!"

Filming is underway. In the act, Lindsey's character is begging the lead actor's character to stay. "But Bret, what will I do without you? You can't leave me now! I need you, Bret!" The lead actor walks away. "Bret, don't go!" Lindsey cries. "And cut! Print it!" The Director commands. Amy beams "Your mom is amazing, Chris." Chris blushes and laughs nervously. His mom approaches. "Was I good?" Chris smiles "Yeah!" She looks around confused "Where are your friends? You said you were bringing them." Tails smiles "We're right here." Lindsey laughs "My, you look like a real fox. It's amazing what the makeup department can do with a little hair and a pot of glue these days." Tails looked at Chris in confusion "Uh, didn't you tell her about us yet?" He shrugs "I tried, but Mom's clueless sometimes. By the way, where did Cookies&Cream and the others go?" Tails shrugs "Beats me." The director is reviewing the shot. "What's this? ... Stop!" The cameraman stops on a certain frame. "Right there." The director points to a certain part of the frame. There, watching Lindsey crying, are Cookies&Cream, Cheese, and Bubblegum. Chris gasps. "I didn't call for animals in this shot!" "Don't worry, D.B. We can erase it digitally in post." "You're right. Please take care of it. Alright, let's go to the next scene!" Chris breathes a sigh of relief.

Inside the castle, Sonic, Life, and Lilly enter and begin to explore it. Outside the castle, the next scene is being set up. Chris, his friends, and Ella are sitting on some stone steps nearby. Chris spoke, "Let's watch from here." The Director shouts "Okay, rehearse it!" Lindsey begins running forward. "Please, Bret, don't leave me! Come back! What will I do? Where shall I go?" The camera bumps an object that is right next to it. The object is a pedestal with a talisman on top of it. The top of the talisman depicts a moon and a star. "What is this? It's in the way." Inside the castle, a strange sensation falls on Sonic, Life, and Lilly. Outside the castle, the cameraman stops for a moment. "On second thought, I'll move the camera." The cameraman moves the camera back a few feet. Inside the castle, the sensation ends. Life blinks "Huh?" Lilly starts to shake "What was that?" Sonic turns to them "I don't know... But I think this isn't a part of the movie..." Life's eyes flash light green then back to normal. "I agree..."

Outside the castle, the next take is on. Lindsey is once again running. "Come back! What shall I do? Where shall I go?" This time, however, the talisman gets in the way of the shot. The Cameraman groans "It's still in the way." He removes the talisman from the pedestal and places it on the ground. "There." Inside the castle Sonic, Life, and Lilly feel the sensation ending again. They look down the dark hallway. Outside the castle. "Places, everybody!" "And... action!" Night falls on the castle, and the film crew is filming inside the castle. Lindsey is carrying a candle. The Sound Guy hears something "Uh, DB? There's a noise." "Cut!" Elsewhere, Sonic looks out the window at the courtyard. Life is looking around suspiciously while Lilly is close by.
