[audience laughing]

[coughing]

Are you okay?

It feels good to get it out.

You have a little something

on your chin.

I do?

Your hair, too.

I look like a sick Muppet.

They're announcing

the winners. Come on.

I don't wanna see

those idiots win.

People liked us.

Come on. We still got a chance.

Come on.

And the third finalist is...

The Wiggy Sisters.

I love you. I love you. I love

you. I love you.

My girls! My girls!

Yes! Yes!

So how does it feel

to be in the finals?

Amazing.

This is, like,

the best thing

in my life!

Incredible.

It's like a dream.

It's awesome.

Well, congratulations

to you all.

And the last finalist is...

The 5 Ovations.

[cheering]

We won. We won.

Tell me it's true.

Tell me it's true.

It's true.

- I can't believe this.

- Oh, my gosh.

Oh, my gosh.

I think I'm gonna be sick again.

Come on.

[applause]

So, how does it feels

to be in the finals, girls?

It's fantastic.

Wow, wow, wow.

I actually feel sick.

- I'm blown away.

- Me, too.

So that's it, ladies and

gentlemen.

In just one week,

these four amazing acts

will be here on CDS TV

performing live for the grand

prize of $1 million.

So make sure you tune in.

Good night and God bless.

That's the dumbest thing

I've ever seen.

You were the best,

by far, baby.

The background dancers

were just too old.

They didn't look good.

Next year, honey.

We'll win for sure next year.

I'm not waiting until next year

and I'm not giving up.

Hey, you gotta get over it, kid.

They've already picked the

finalists and we need

to move on.

My name is Alanna Wannabe

and I'm still gonna be.

- You got that?

- I'm with you a 100%.

[soft music playing]

- Hey.

- How you doing?

Okay. I heard what

happened today.

I'm sorry.

It's okay. At least I left her.

And I'm sorry about your song

and changing the lyrics

and everything.

We shouldn't have done that.

No, it's cool.

- I thought it sounded

pretty good.

- You did?

[Mark] Not that good.

So, what are you doing

for the next show?

I don't know.

We need a new song.

Do you have anything

you'd be willing to give us?

I'd be nice to you

for a thousand years.

Well, I was working

on something for them.

But I'm not sure

it's right for you guys.

What do you mean "not sure"?

It's a big dance number with a

lot of intricate moves and...

We can do that.

It's beyond what you guys do.

So you have someone in mind?

Jasmine.

Jasmine?

[Arabian music playing]

She's really good.

Yeah.

And she has lots of friends

you could put in the dance

to make the show really great.

I'll see you tonight.

All right, I'll see you later,

baby. Kisses.

I love you.

I love you, too.

That was great, Jasmine.

And you, too, Spence.

And what do you do?

Anything you want.

I'm very flexible.

Care to join me?

Not today.

But you all get my vote.

- Me, too.

- And me.

So, you wanna join us?

Wait a minute.

You're gonna have

to talk to me

about that.

You know we don't want

another singer, Alanna.

Surprise, surprise.

Jasmine is my cousin.

My very favorite cousin.

And guess what?

I'm her personal manager.

And I also manage Spencer

and Victoria as well.

You gotta be kidding me.

Our mothers are sisters

and we love each other a lot.

Let's try and work this out,

okay? What do you guys need?

It's very simple. They join the

group and I come with them.

No way.

No way, no play.

You'll get them plus me

for the same price. What a deal!

You're becoming

really obnoxious, Alanna.

Are you sure we can't just do

this on our own?

We need a big dance number

and the Wiggies already have

seven new dancers.

- Is that true?

- Yes.

Let's just give her a chance.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

You know, you really are a smart

person and I'll tell you why.

Those Wiggies are planning

to put fleas into your clothes

before your next performance.

And I think you should get them

before they get you.

Splish, splash,

I was takin' a bath

Long about

a Saturday night, yeah

A rub dub, just...

Come on!

Thinkin' everythin' was

all right

- Good evening, Mayor.

- Good evening to you.

And your dress

is lovely, Dorothy.

Thank you, dear.

You don't look so bad yourself.

You remember my daughters,

Zoey and Ziggy?

[together] Good evening,

Mr Mayor.

There was a-splishin' and

a-splashin'

Reelin' with the feelin'

Movin' and a-groovin'

Bing, bang, I saw

the whole gang

Dancin' on my living

room rug, yeah

- You see him?

- No.

Hey, I'm here.

Oh, my God.

You scared the heck out of me.

- How are you guys?

- Did you check the place out?

Go up the stairs,

down the long hallway,

third door on the left.

I'll see you later.

Look what you did,

you stupid fool.

I'm sorry.

Yeah

What are doing here?

Plumbing. My dad's

fixing the toilet.

Well, you better get back

in that toilet before

I have you arrested.

Splish, splash, I was

takin' a bath

Long about a Saturday

night, yeah

A rub dub, just relaxin' in

[Joei] Okay. Let's go.

[Joei] Get the first wig

and turn it over.

- What if they get on us?

- They're frozen.

It'll take you a couple minutes

before they warm up.

Well, I stepped out the tub

I put my feet on the floor

- Get down.

- ...opened the door

And then a-splish, splash

I jumped back in the bath

Well, how was I to know

There was a party goin' on?

There was a-splishin' and

a-splashin'

Get the rest.

Ladies and gentlemen,

America's number one wig maker

Mr and Mrs Wiggs

and their talented singing,

dancing daughters.

Oh, when the sun beats down

And burns the tar

up on the roof

And your shoes get so hot

You wish your tired feet

Were fireproof

Under the boardwalk

Down by the sea, yeah

On a blanket with my baby

Is where I'll be

It's working. It's working.

- Under the boardwalk

- We'll be having some fun

And our next finalists

Collective Music Group.

Hey, girl, I got a thing

for you

I'm not a Backstreet Boy or

'N Sync I'm not a Jonas Brother

but I can sing

And, girl, I got a thing

for you

I got a thing for you

Beyonce, Britney, Rihanna,

Whitney, in my dreams they

wanna get with me

- But, girl, I got a thing

for you

How terrible. They must have

broken a fan belt or something.
