"Kenya, are you ready?" Rob asks. He goes to see that Kenya is still in the bathroom, fixing her hair. He quietly sneaks inside, while she puts on her make up before tickling her. Kenya lets out a high pitched scream and turns to see Rob closing his ears. "Rob, you scared me!" she says. "I scared you? Someone could have called the hotel staff by now to come up here". They leave the bathroom and are about to go see The Artist in concert. "So why haven't you gone to any of our shows?". "Rob, you guys were all over the country and you only performed in areas that I would have to travel by plane. Do you know how expensive that can get?". "In my defense, we didn't choose the places to perform. If we had a choice, we would have came to more places in the East" Rob explains.

It sounded like a fair explanation to Kenya, so they start to head out. "Just one more thing. Are you one of those fans that would throw things on the stage?" he asks. "Like what?". "I don't know, a rose, some jewelry, a pair of your panties...". "Robert Pilatus! I am not that kind of woman! Throwing things on stage is tacky, uncouth and dangerous!". "If it were me, you would do it, wouldn't you?" he teases, forming another mischievous grin.

Kenya blushes. "Stop looking at me like that!". "That sounds like a 'yes' " he teases. "Just for that, if I'm called to go on stage, you'll have to see me dance with The Artist topless". "Now that's going too far!". She laughs and they make their way to United Center.

As they arrive they see a large sign above the entrance.

Rob and Kenya get inside after waiting for about 30 minutes and moves towards the front of the stage. The announcer takes the stage, introducing The Artist and his band. He plays the first few songs for the crowd before playing "Somebody's Somebody".

The crowd moves to the tempo and Rob wraps his arms around Kenya, resting his chin on her shoulder. He whispers the lyrics in her ear, making her relax and swoon. The next few songs played changes to an upbeat tempo before playing "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World".
