Mike was at the bank talking with an employee.
"Yes, indeed. I am about to come into a very, very large sum of money. $100,000 to be precise.", Mike told
"Well, is that so? In that case, sir, you'll be wanting our platinum card.", the employee said, sliding a card to Mike.
He gasped with wide eyes.

At the disco, the white mouse lady was about to enter as a car honked. She saw a red sport car stopping in front of the disco. The driver: Mike who smirked at her. The bodyguard pulled his glasses down with shocked eyes. Mike jumped off the car and grabbed the lady's hand so she wrapped it around his arm.

"Well, well, well ... Hello again.", Mike said to the bodyguard.
Without saying anything, the bodyguard let him and the lady in.

Ash and Lance were laughing at the list of songs.
"Oh, man, these are like the cheesiest songs of all time.", Lance stood up from the coach to take his guitar.
"I know, right? I mean, I was thinking of writing my own song instead.", Ash suggested.
"Wait, what? Your own song?"
"Well, yeah."
"Look, if you wanna win that money, just do what the koala says."
"Why? You think I can't write my own song?"
"Whoa, whoa! I'm just saying. Not everyone can write songs, okay? I know I make it look easy, babe. But it's not."

Meena climbed out of the bus with headphones. As the bus drove away, she saw the whole neighborhood in front of the house. Shocked, she took off her headphones.

"So, Meena! Are you in the show?", her grandfather asked her.
"Uh, well, yeah. Kinda. But ...", she tried to explain.
Everyone cheered, her mother being the loudest.
"I knew it! I knew it!", she ran to the daughter and hugged her, "Oh, I'm so proud of you! I could pop!"
"That's my birthday wish coming true right there!"
Meena's mom brought towards the cheering people.
"Mom! What the heck?"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute. Don't be mad, okay? It was your Grandma. She told the whole street about your audition."
"Mom, no, wait."
"Shush, baby. You need to save that singing voice of yours. So, from now on, just nod or shake your head, okay?"
Meena nodded.
Everybody cheered as the neighborhood took pictures.

Johnny was praticing his driving around the gas station. His father time it seeing that Johnny took 28 seconds to go around the station. He groans as Johnny stopped behind him.

"How was that, Dad?"
"You're still too soft on 'em corners, Johnny. You've got to attack'em. And you're crunchin' the gears. I told you, you got to be gentle with the ..."
Johnny was getting more and more annoyed. He wished he could be at the theater right now and practicing the piano with the mysterious girl who helps him.
Rick realised that Johnny was listening to music.
"Look, turn that down.", having enough, Johnny drove off, "Oi! Listen to your father!", Rick yelled after him.

In the car, Johnny mimicked his father really angry that he drove exactly like his father wanted too.
""Too soft on the corners, Johnny.""You're not doin' it right, Johnny. Speed up, Johnny.""
He took the corner, ""Do it like I showed you..."", not realising that he was driving straight towards this father, "Whoa!", and hit the brakes.
He panted and turn off the music. He looked around not seeing his father.
"Dad? Oh, no, I've run over my dad."
He got startled as his dad slammed his hand on the car showing him the timer. This time it showed 16 seconds.
"Now, that is more like it.", Rick laughed.

Rosita carefully entered the house and closed the door gently. She looked around seeing that the construction she made worked perfectly while she wasn't here. She opened the door of the children's bedroom. They were all sleeping peacefully.

"And the three little pigs lived happily ever after. Good night, my dears.", the record said.

Changed into her pyjamas, Rosita climbed the bed where her husband already slept.
"Norman, are you awake?"
Norman moaned.
"How was your day, honey?"
"Same as always.", he yawned.
"It was?"
"Mmm-hmm. I don't know how you do it all, honey. Good night."
"Good night"

Buster was fixing the leak with duct tape. This done, he took out a rag and cleaned a picture on the wall. It was the picture of the opening day of the theater. He remembered the day so well because it was a month before his dad died.

Flashback begins

"All creatures great and small, welcome to the Moon Theater!", he cut the ribbon as the people around cheered.

He handed the scissors to Miss Crawly then to his father who smiled at him. Buster hugged his father, thanking him which his father returned. (Y/N) looked at them happy as the koala who adopted her, opened one arm welcoming her into the hug. The three hugged each other tightly.

"Buster?"

Flashback ends

Buster looked down seeing his sister at the door.
"I have Judith from the bank."
"What? Oh, no, no. Tell her I'll call her back in the morning, sis.", he slided down the ladder.
"I can't, bro. She's already here."
Judith appeared in front of Buster with an angry frown.
"Judith! Hello!"

They walked towards the exit.
"I work for a bank, not a charity. And if your accounts are not settled by the end of the month ...", Judith warned.
"Okay. Judith ... I personally guatantee by the end of this month this show is going to be the biggest hit this city has ever seen!"
"Mr. Moon none of your shows have ever worked. None of them! You've had your chances."
"Judith, please.", (Y/N) took out her wallet taking out the money she had and pointed them out to Judith, "Those are $200. Will this be enough?"
"(Y/N) ...", Buster started but stopped as (Y/N) looked at him with a look that said 'Don't change my mind."
Judith took the money, "You are lucky that with the money I can please my employees. Now settle your accounts or we will repossess this property!", she walked away.
"Okay. Toodle-oo.", Buster laughed nervously.
"What are you gonna do, Mr. Moon.", Miss Crawly asked.
"Honestly ... Uh, I have no idea."
