At the "It's a wash" store*
It's raining outside you, steven and greg are having a jam session inside's greg's van, parked outside the carwash
Steven: Woo! Go Dad!
Greg: See? What'd I tell you? I may be losing my hair but the magic's still there.
Greg: Y/N, thank you for visiting me. I thought this is the chance to get you know better, since you and steven are best friends and all.
You: No problem greg. You are such a good parent for raising such a good kid.
Steven blushed at what you said and Greg drinks from a can of soda as a photo, that was stuck to the bottom of the can, falls off.
Greg: Hmm?
Steven:(catches the photo*) Who's with you in this old picture?
Greg: Haha. That's my pal Marty.
Steven: You've never told me about him.
Greg: Yeah he's just an old amigo from way back when... (smiles*) He's dead to me.
Steven: Who was he?
Greg: (tunes his guitar*) He was my manager back when I first met your mom. I've told that whole story haven't I?
Steven: Not the version with Marty... Right y/n?
You: Yeah, and now that i think of it. I am now curious at your love story with steven's mom.
Greg: Yeesh, well then it's story time. Sit back, get comfy! (Steven lays down on a mattress.*)
Greg: I didn't mean that comfy...
Steven: (excitedly*) Story for Steven!
Greg: Okay, okay... This is the tale of how your father met your mother... Now including Marty.
Greg starts playing his guitar, as he retells the tale to Steven, setting a flashback.
The tale begins with a younger Greg, holding a solo concert on the beach of beach city, playing and singing "comet"
greg: ♫ Some... say I have no direction, that I'm a light-speed distraction, but that's a knee-jerk reaction ♫
greg: ♫ Still... this is the final frontier, everything is so clear, to my destiny I steer. ♫
greg: ♫ This life in the stars is all I've ever known, stars and stardust in infinite space is my only home. ♫
greg:♫ But the moment that I hit the stage, thousands of voices are calling my name. ♫
greg: ♫ And I know in my heart it's been worth it all of the while. ♫
greg: ♫ And as my albums fly off of the shelves, handing out autographed pics of myself. This life I chose isn't easy but sure is one heck of a ride. ♫
greg: ♫ At the moment that I hit the stage, I hear the universe calling my name. ♫
greg: ♫ And I know deep down in my heart I have nothing to fear. ♫
greg: ♫ And as the solar wind blows through my hair, knowing I have so much more left to share. ♫
greg: ♫ A wandering spirit who's tearing its way through the cold atmosphere. ♫
greg: ♫ I'll fly like a comet. Soar like a comet. Crash like a comet. I'm just a comet. ♫
As Greg finishes his song, he finds only a single Rose attending his concert, clapping for him.
