Mr. moon.

And, uh, the... the prize money?

It's, uh... I mean, it's...

It's real this time, right?

There is no prize money,

'cause there's no competition.

Tonight you're singing

for yourselves.

Two minutes, everybody.

Final checks.

Singing for ourselves?

Unbelievable.

What-what-what is...?

Who's he...?

This is crazy.

I'm out of here.

- Hello! -

uh, we-we're...

We're putting on a show here.

-Hey! -Come on.

-You all should come and see it.

You! Come on!

Come on, fella!

It's going to be really good.

Hey. How's our new

stagehand getting on?

-He's learning fast.

-All set and standing by!

I love this headset!

The audience

are in their seats, Mr. moon.

Great!

--Hmm.

- Caspar!

- That's all?

Get your pants back on,

young man!

Please, you guys, please.

Please sit down!

Hey, put your shoes back on

right now!

Zoe, I saw that! Stop it!

And, Leo,

that is disgusting!

Well, John, I've covered

many disasters

for this network,

but this is sure to...

Oh, oh, they're about to start.

Okay, guys, listen up.

Look, I gotta tell you, um,

there's not much of an audience

out there tonight.

But you know what?

It doesn't matter.

It really doesn't.

'Cause tonight is our night.

And whatever happens,

i just want you all to know

how proud I am to be

a part of this with you.

Good luck, Mr. moon.

Good luck, every... whoa!

Whoop. Uh... sorry.

Just jumped the cue there.

Don't worry.

I... i-I'm gonna get

the hang of this.

Here we go.

All creatures great and small,

- welcome to...

Oh, hello there.

Great.

Welcome to our newly

refurbished, open-air theater.

Yes, I am your host,

buster moon...

-You ready, big guy?

-Ja!

I'm, like, totally ready.

All right.

Let's do this.

Gunter and Rosita!

Aren't they great?

What, are you kidding me?

It's like watching jell-o

dancing around.

Like you could do

any better, pip-squeak.

All right, all right, all right.

Hey! You want to see

something great?

I'll show you great.

Yeah, mommy!

-Gunter and Rosita!

Kids, no.

Back to your seats.

-The show's still...

-Okay, okay. Aah!

- Norman!

All right! Piggy power!

- That was great!

Well, it seems I'm not

the only one who actually

enjoyed that.

Crowds are beginning

to arrive at the scene.

--Help!

I'm so sorry, Mr. moon.

Johnny, you're on next.

What is that?

Turn it down, will you?

Oi, didn't you hear me?

I said turn it...

-What the...?

-Hey, hey!

What about that, huh?

Give it up for Johnny, folks.

--Yeah!

Johnny! Johnny!

What's with the face?

You were great.

They loved you.

Yeah, thanks, Rosita.

All right.

Welcome to all you newcomers.

You are just in time

to meet a teenager

who was recently dumped

by her boyfriend.

- Aw...

- I know, right?

But she's gonna chase

those blues away

with a song of her very own.

Allow me to introduce

the singing sensation, ash.

--Judith?

You are all trespassing

on private property.

-What?!

-And you will leave right now.

I didn't... no, no, no,

no, no, no, Judith...

All of you.

Ugh. Seriously?

She's not even that good.

Yeah, yeah, totally.

Uh, you guys okay?

Ash! Ash! Ash! Ash!

Ash! Ash! Ash!

What about that?

We just witnessed the birth

of a genuine rock star!

Moon, you...

You've got some stuck here.

Ow!

He may be tiny,

but there is no denying

his enormous talent.

Would you please welcome

to the stage Mike.

What are you doing back here?

Relax, sweetheart.

Just came back

to show you bozos

how it's really done.

Now, watch this.

That is Mike!

I'm so proud of you.

Uh-oh.

You gotta be kidding me.

Negative.

I've lost sight of the suspect

and am terminating pursuit.

That pip-squeak

really was great.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Oh, please.

You're too kind, really.

Look at me.

I'm turning red.

Stop. I can't take it.

Keep... keep it coming.

Well, I better get back.

They'll be wondering

what happened to me.

You'll visit me, though, yeah?

Yeah, course I will.

See you, son.

We have one final act

for you tonight.

Would you please welcome

to the stage

for her first ever

live appearance...

Meena.

Meena?

Is she coming out?

Meena, what's wrong?

Are you okay?

Uh, I can't move.

I'm... I'm terrified.

Give me your hand, kid.

Okay, deep breaths.

Deep breaths.

And remember what I told you.

You will not

feel afraid anymore

if you just start singing.

- Meena! Meena!

I can do it... okay.

Oh! Oh, I'm so sorry. Um...

Uh, okay.

Uh... uh...

Sing.

Okay.

Whoo-hoo!

Guys, guys, wait.

We can talk this over, right?

We're all reasonable

individuals here.

Get in! Quick!

Oh, thank you, sweetheart.

Whew! That was close.

Yeah.

Come on!

-Meena! You did it! -That's my

granddaughter! -She did it!

Go, go!

Oh, dad,

i wish you could see this.

Everybody ready?

All creatures great and small,

welcome to the new moon theater.
