"All right. Nice work, everyone. Wait, Tori, Andre, Beck, Jade, Cat, Robbie and Brook. Stay for a moment" Sikowitz's said after dismissing the class 

"Um...Why do you have a women purse?" I asked holding back laughter 

"I don't have a pur....good God, where's this come from? And where's my dozen bagels?" He said clearly confused. Maybe he should stop drinking coconuts so often 

"Can I leave?" Jade sighed and I agreed turning to leave 

"Wait, how would you teenagers like to do something for money?" I turned back around 

"Can we have some details first?" 

"Well, I assume you're all familiar with Kevin Chase" 

"The guy who owns like half the hotels in Vegas?" Beck asked 

"I'm telling the story!" He yelled making us jump 

"Sorry" Beck apologized 

"Kevin was my roommate in collage" 

"Oh my god...they were roommates" I said quietly Beck and he chuckled at me 

"And now he's extremely wealthly and his little boy is turning 4 years old. This week, the big 'o four" He kept dragging it on, get to the point Sikowitz 

"What do you want, man?" Andre asked 

"Kevin hired the wagglefuffles to perform a song at his son's birthday party" 

"Oh, I love the wagglefuffles" Cat giggled 

"wagga, wagga, wagga, wag  your fuffles left and right wagga, wagga, wagga, wag your fuffles day and night" 

"Shut up" Rex spat 

"Rex told me to shut up" 

"Yes, thank you Rex" 

"I'll give this dollar to get to the point" I said pulling a dollar out of Beck's pocket 

"Hey, that's mine" He said 

"I couldn't possibly take your money" Sikowitz said then snatched the dollar 

"Apparently, the wagglefuffles. Private jet...crashed and so, now Kevin needs a new musical group to perform at his son's birthday party" 

"So, you want us to form a kiddie musical group?" Jade asked 

For just one performance" 

"No" Jade said flatly 

"He'll pay you $1,000" 

"A thousand" Andre said 

"Shall I tell my friend you're all in?" We all nodded 

"Oh, where would we do this?" Tori asked 

"I'll set up the party here at school in the black box theater. You can perform on stage after, the kids have their cake and ice cream, it'll be fantastic" He clapped his hands together 

"There you are" A lady snarled coming through the back door carrying a bag of bagels

"Ah, my bagels. Sorry about the mix-up there" He said as they exchanged bags 

"Pull your head outta your pants" She said and Jade and I snickered 

"I like her" I whispered to Jade 

"She's great" 

"Bye, mom" He said 

"That was your mom?" Beck asked
