[Opening theme song plays as the camera pans over the new setting, a small, cramped apartment with the five of them sitting on a lumpy couch.]

Jason Statham: [Looking around the tiny living room] "This is not what I had in mind when I dreamed of being a Hollywood superstar."

Beyoncé: [Laughing] "Well, at least we have each other."

Alex: [Sighing] "But we don't have any money. We've gone from being rich and famous to struggling to make ends meet."

Tyson: [Holding up a bowl of ramen noodles] "And this is all we can afford to eat."

Jay-Z: [Shaking his head] "We need to find a way to get back to the top."

[As they talk, they realize that they have to start from the bottom and work their way back up. They begin searching for jobs, but their fame and notoriety make it difficult to find work.]

Beyoncé: [Holding up a flyer] "Hey, there's a local talent show with a cash prize. We should enter!"

[As they talk, they realize that this might be their chance to get back into the spotlight. They begin practicing and rehearsing their talents for the show.]

Jason Statham: [In a terrible British accent] "Hello, I am Jason Statham, and I will be performing a one-man Shakespeare play."

Alex: [Holding up a guitar] "And I'll be performing my original song about being poor and in love."

Tyson: [Holding up a dance costume] "And I'll be doing a hip hop dance routine!"

Jay-Z: [Holding up a can of spray paint] "And I'll be doing a live graffiti performance!"

Beyoncé: [Holding up a set of knitting needles] "And I'll be knitting a sweater!"

[As they talk, they realize that they might not be as talented as they thought they were. The talent show goes horribly wrong, and they end up humiliating themselves on stage.]

Jason Statham: [Dramatically] "This is the end of our careers. We're finished!"

Beyoncé: [Laughing] "No, it's not. We may have lost the talent show, but we still have each other."

[As they talk, the scene fades to black, and we see them sitting together in their tiny apartment, laughing and enjoying each other's company.]

Alex: [Smiling] "Maybe being poor isn't so bad after all."

Tyson: [Laughing] "Yeah, at least we have each other."

[As they talk, the camera pans out of the apartment window, and we see a beautiful sunrise, signifying that even though they may be struggling now, there is still hope for a brighter future.]
