Thomas couldn't believe what just happened, and ran off stage. Alex handed John a microphone, and nodded to Eliza, who began playing the intro to Breaking Free. John stood frozen in place. Alex saw this, and motioned for Eliza to stop playing.

"I can't do it, Alex, not with all those people staring at me," John told him. He tried to walk away, but Alex grabbed his arm before he could escape.

"Hey, hey, look at me, look at me, right at me. Right at me. It'll be like the first time we sang together. Remember? Like kindergarten," He told him softly. Once again, Alex motioned for Eliza to start playing, this time the backdrop game
We're soarin', flyin'
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
If we're trying So we're breaking free
You know the world can see us
In a way that's different than who we are
Creating space between us '
Til we're separate hearts
But your faith it gives me strength
Strength to believe
We're breakin' free
We're soarin'
Flyin'
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
If we're trying
Yeah, we're breaking free
Oh, we're breakin' free
Ohhhh
Can you feel it building
Like a wave the ocean just can't control
Connected by a feeling
Ohhh, in our very souls
Rising 'til it lifts us up So every one can see
We're breakin' free 
We're soarin' 
Flyin'
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
If we're trying
Yeah we're breaking free
Ohhhh runnin'
Climbin' To get to that place
To be all that we can be
Now's the time
So we're breaking free
We're breaking free
Ohhh , yeah
More than hope
More than faith
This is true
This is fate
And together
We see it comin'
More than you
More than me
Not a want, but a need
Both of us breakin' free
Soarin'  
Flyin'
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
If we're trying
Yeah we're breaking free
Breaking free
Were runnin'
Ohhhh, climbin'
To get to the place
To be all that we can be
Now's the time 
Now's the time 
So we're breaking free 
Ohhh, we're breaking free 
Ohhhh
You know the world can see us
In a way that's different than who we are

As the song ended, the auditorium erupted with applause and cheering.

"Whoo!" Peggy cheered, standing up and clapping her hands vigorously.

"That's amazing!" Samuel screamed.

"Amazing, yeah!" Angelica shouted, jumping up and down. Alex looked over to John who was smiling widely, and pulled him into an embrace. Alex looked down at the shorter male, and planted a kiss on his head. They both turned to face crowd and took turns bowing, as the crowd continued to cheer.
