No! (He has a bad dream so he screams which makes Joe and Kevin wake up from their sleep and Joe is protecting himself with a guitar)
Kevin
The monkeys! Aw! (Grunting) Hyah! (pulls up his eye mask just a little bit)
Guys, it's all me. Bad dream. (Kevin and Joe sigh)
Kevin
About the new song?
Were we wearing underwear and birthday hats?
Kevin
You were wearing that too?
Not this time. Everyone back to bed. (he tells Kevin and Joe to go back to sleep then he goes back to his bed)
Kevin
Okay. (he walks to his bed) Oh, guys, can someone turn on the relaxation CD?
Sure. (he stands on his bed and he turns on a nature CD)
Kevin
How am I supposed to fall asleep to that.
Nick's never had writer's block before. It's been three weeks and he hasn't written anything.
Kevin
I know what we can do. We can introduce him to a girl, make him fall in love with that girl, make the girl break up with him. Broken heart, brand new song! Unless that would be totally wrong.
Yeah, that would be pretty wrong. (Kevin and Frankie are setting up the table)
(holds the guitar) Nick out. Frankie in.
Frankie, that's plan B. (Frankie walks away the guitar)
Kevin
Maybe C.
Kevin
Well is dry, dad.
Well, if he doesn't come up with a song by the end of the day tomorrow, we can't get the album done on time.
(talking about Nick and his writer's block) What if he can't write anymore? What if he can't write another song for as long as he lives?
Then that would be pretty embarrassing for all of us!
Don't worry, okay? I've got my song-writing shoes on.(He shines his shoes) I wore these babies when I wrote our first number-one hit and our second number-one hit.
Ooh, I am so sorry about that. I forgot I left that there.
Oh, it's quick-dry spackle. Now with "quicker quick dry". Mmm.
Kevin
Um... I think we can help you, Nick. Just grab him. (Grunts) One, two, three! All the fun stuff happens to you.
So, Nick, you think you can write that song, today. Maybe? You could write about really anything. Doesn't have to be about relationships.
It could be about animals or trees or plants. (he walks to the table and Kevin walks to Nick)
Joe, I appreciate the concern, but would be really nice not to mention the new song at all.
Kevin
You got it! (He pours Crunchy Cats into Nick's bowl and Nick is annoyed at Kevin) How about a little bit of new song. I mean, new song. Oh, um, you want more new song? How about some Crunchy Cats cereal with a brand-new-good-morning taste of some new song? (He walks away with his hand over his mouth)
Oh, sorry about that. Let me give you a towel.
Kevin
It's so nice in here. Oh, the sunshine and the birds singing. Not that I'm thinking of songs or-- or anything.
Nick, please tell me you got something. Please please please. (he and Kevin walk closer to Nick but he doesn't want to be bothered)
Guys, I'm trying to write here. (A bird pooped on the guitar)
That's supposed to be very lucky.
How am I supposed to wash this off?
It's hard enough to write after having the worst day of my life. And you eyeballing me doesn't help. (Nick looks at Joe then he continues to write songs)
Kevin
What does make the worst day of a life? Let's reflect.
Get out. (he angrily tells his brothers to leave the bedroom)
Fine. You don't have to be so mean.
Kevin
I'm--I'm going.
TTV
Now a message from Crunchy cats! Crunchy crunchy, meow meow meow
I've got it. I've got the song. I've got a new song! I dreamt an awesome song.(Joe, Kevin and Tom run upstairs after they heard that Nick has a new song)
You're my son again. Let's hear this.
I can't remember it. I can't remember the song. (He stares at the keyboard blankly)
(laughing) Come on-- there's only 88 keys here. Nick, just hit one. Here, how about-- Was that note in it? How about this note? Does this note ring a bell? This note? Nick? This note? How about one of these black ones. These are weird.
Kevin
Dad, dad! Step away from the keyboard.
That's the one! (points to a black key as Kevin pulls him away) Okay, I'm sorry. Everything's good. I'm gonna be downstairs not freaking out. Just relaxing. Nick, do this thing. (Tom is heard crying downstairs and Kevin is walking down the steps and he is going to sleep on the ottoman)
Nick? Don't worry about dad. He doesn't know how to chill.
I can't believe the song's gone.
It can't be gone! (He walks to Nick and grabs his arm to pull him away from the chair) We have one day. Go back to bed.
Go back to sleep. Dream it again.
I can't-- I can't just dream it again.
Come on! Say goodnight and goodbye, la la la la. Kevin, help me out here! Kevin!
Kevin
Ahh! I'm up. I'm up.
What are we gonna do? We need to get this song back.
I can't just dream it again.
Kevin: Sure you can. Okay, One time I had this dream about a lemur feeding me chocolate pudding. And of course, I wanted to dream it again.
Kevin
So I repeated everything exactly the same way, it happened to me all day long. And then sure enough, I went to sleep and boom! (sighs) The lemur was surprised to see me again.
I'm not repeating this awful day. (he stands up)
Even if you'll dream the song again?
So you're saying Kevin had a good idea?
It was bound to happen eventually.
Kevin
Thanks, bro.
Okay. I will repeat the worst day of my life for the sake of this band.
That's more like it. I'm proud of you. (he gives Nick a pat on the chest)
Kevin
I just wanted to get a head start.
Kevin
Okay, here's a list of all the horrible things that happened to Nick yesterday. Now it's our job to make sure they all happen again.
Spackle bucket. (Nick slides down the pole and steps into the bucket of spackle)
Kevin: Check. You never know, it could have been the landing into the bucket that led into the dream that led to the song, Nick.
That's what I figured. That's why today I wore your favorite shoes. (Nick shows Kevin that he is wearing Kevin's favorite shoes)
Kevin
Not my lucky loafers!
Okay, look, I appreciate you guys doing this to try to make the deadline, but don't go overboard, okay? (talking to Kevin and Joe about Nick) Stay on him. Wring him like a damp washcloth if you gotta.
Kevin
Check.
We covered this one last night.
Yes, we did, but it didn't count because it was last night and it was Kevin and it was low-fat.(Nick picks up a spoon to hit Joe then Nick bends the spoon instead hitting Joe with it) Don't hit me because you didn't hit me yesterday.
Hey. I fixed the jacket. Look, I know it was an accident, so try it on. Any luck with song-writing?
Actually, I wrote a song in a dream I had last night.
Nick: Then I forgot it. So in order to have the same dream again, I have to repeat everything I did yesterday.
It was bound to happen eventually. (he starts to tear apart the seams)
Well, the only thing you did yesterday, I could remember was ruin my jacket. No! no no no No! No! (she takes back the jacket)
I'm sorry. It's for the band.
Stella, it's for the band. (Stella goes to other door but Kevin is blocking her way)
Kevin
What they said.
Look, an aardvark. (she distracts Kevin)
Kevin
I'm not gonna fall for that one.(he and Stella have a staring contest with each other then he falls for her trick and she leaves the classroom while he is distracted)
Kevin
But he's probably cute.
Kevin
I can't believe I fell it again.
Kevin
Stop! (he wants Nick to be pooped by the birds) Go! (Kevin, Joe, Nick and Stella runs from the atrium)
No! No! Nobody is gonna rip this jacket except me. (she rips the jacket instead of Kevin, Joe and Nick)
Kevin
There's one more thing. (he starts to unravel the seams)
Sorry, Stell, we have to repeat everything.
Well, in that case...(she rips Nick's shirt sleeves again and she takes one of his shirt sleeves then she storms off)
Are you sure you broke the guitar? (he looks at the list while Kevin is eating cereal)
Yeah! (he replies to Joe while he washes off in the bathroom)
Okay, looks like we've covered everything on the list. (Joe puts the clipboard on the ottoman then he picks up the blanket) (Nick enters the bedroom he then walks to the armchair that he was sitting on yesterday and Joe puts the blanket on him)
Kevin
All that you have to do now is go back to sleep and dream that awesome song. But, you know, no pressure.
Nick, don't worry if have to cancel the tour and the album. You know, we can always find different jobs like a stuntman or a hand model. (looks at his hand)
Kevin
Ooh.
Not helping. (he goes to sleep)
Kevin
Do you want my eye mask? (he offers Nick the eye mask)
No. (talks while sleeping)
Kevin
How about a foot rub? (Kevin offers to give Nick a foot massage)
How about a face punch? (he wakes up to give Kevin a punch in the face)
Kevin
Looks like somebody need a nap. (Nick goes back to sleep)
I can smell it. It's a hit song. (he and Kevin are near Nick's face)
Kevin
It's just sizzling inside his brain.
I can't sleep with you guys staring at me. (he wakes up to find that Kevin and Joe are on both sides of him)
Sorry, Nick. Kevin, stop staring at him. (he and Kevin leave Nick alone)
TTV
We'll be right back after this message from Crunchy Cats. Crunchy crunchy, meow meow meow...
Oh no! (he wakes up after hearing the tune)
TTV
Crunchy crunchy, meow meow meow...
Kevin
What's the tune?
Crunchy cats. (picks up the cereal box then drops it and he runs to his area with Kevin and Joe)
Kevin
What?
Ahh! The song that I wrote in my dream.
Kevin,
You mean, it's already on the television? You are amazing!
I must have heard it in my sleep and then dreamt I wrote it.
Kevin: You've got to be kidding.
I can't believe the awesome song I thought I wrote turns out to be "Crunchy Cats."
I repeated every horrible thing that happened to me yesterday. I did it all again and I got nothing. (he decides to throw Mr. Bumbles but Kevin won't let Nick do that)
Kevin
NO! Not Mr. Bumbles. Take it out on the keyboard! It's okay (he pets the teddy bear)
No song, no album, no tour. (he bangs the keyboard feeling angry)
Kevin
Get madder! Come on.
I did it all again and I got nothing I did it all again and I got nothing... I did it all again and I got nothing I did it all again and I got nothing yeah
Woo hoo! Great song! Oh, studio, album, back on! (he imitates gunshots) That was a little over the top. Sorry. Just have been a nervous wreak all week. (he laughs)
All it took was Nick getting really angry and we got an awesome song.
Now all I have to do is apologize to Stella for the jacket and Amy for making her asking me out twice. You guys with me? (He, Joe and Kevin are going to slide down the poles then Joe and Kevin got their leg stuck in a spackle bucket)
Kevin
Absolutely.
You wrote that down somewhere, right?
Kevin
Yeah, and it was so awesome how much chocolate pudding there was and of course, it was just a dream.
Kevin's point that everything Nick told you about having to repeat his day was totally true.
Kevin
Yeah, it wasn't some lame excuse, of trying to get out of going on a date with you.
The truth is, I'd love to go out with you.
Really? Okay, um, would you like to go out on a date with me?
Amy: I'm gonna say no. (she exits the elevator) But, ask me again tomorrow.
We'll see. (she walks away from the elevator)
This is starting out to be a good day.
Hey, Nick, have you seen Kevin? I wanna trade my tuna fish sandwich for his tuna fish sandwich.
What's the difference? They're both tuna fish. (he puts a book back in his locker)
I sat on mine. (shows Nick the flattened sandwich and Joe shakes his head) I'll tell him it's grilled.
He's at a pep-squad meeting getting ready for the big game on Saturday.(he shakes his head) He's really gotten into it.
Kevin? He's a rocker. He would never get into something that corny.
Kevin
(he enters by doing a flip and the megaphone is thrown to him and he catches the megaphone then speaks via it) Attention, Horace Mantis Academy!(Joe and Nick are looking at Kevin) Come show your mantis pride by coming to the big game this Saturday!
CCheerleaders
(they enter) We got the moves all over you
Kevin
It's almost unfair
CCheerleaders
Surrender to the mantis
Kevin
You haven't got a prayer
CKCheerleaders and Kevin
Go, mantis! (Joe shakes his head and Nick claps)
(turns to Joe) Wow, you were right. Talk about corny. Wonder why he's gotten so into this cheerleading thing.
Kevin
I just wish I had longer arms.
Nick, I'm surprised at you. Where's your school spirit? Hey, girls, wait up. Surrender to the mantis, something something something! (follows the cheerleaders and he leaves Nick alone)
Whoo! You guys, that sounded so awesome. Okay, wardrobe's all set.
Nick That's great. Everything is be perfect for Saturday morning.
I think it is so cool that you guys are performing on "Great Morning USA" live right here from the firehouse.
Kevin
Yeah, and Dad said there were gonna be a million people watching all at the same time. That has to be a huge TV.
Yep. Oh! What is this? You guys invited to Jacques Le Fajette's spring preview? He's like my fashion designing idol. Please tell me you're going and please tell me you're taking me with you.
Who wants to see a bunch of dudes who look like they haven't slept in months stumble down a runway? No thank you.
Guys, um, this is the spring preview for women's fashions. That means there's gonna be, like 50 of the most beautiful women in the world there.
Yeah, Who said I wasn't going?
Kevin
I've always been interested in women's fashion, since about three seconds ago.
Can't go. That's the day I mix the final tracks for the record. It's the only day we could lock in the studio. Sorry.
Kevin
I can't go either. We have cheerleading practice on the trampolines.
Wait, can't you go anyway because--
Kevin
Trampolines.
Well, it looks like, it's just you and me. Do you wanna grab a bite or something before?
Pretty exciting, Joe. Your first date with Stella.
Kevin
Aw, we're really happy for you two crazy kids.
It's not a date. We're all going to the fashion show together, except you guys are not coming.
Kevin
Yeah, sure, not a date with Stella... alone together.
Stella only sees me as a friend, okay?
Hey, Joe. Okay. Since we're going to the fashion as a couple, we probably don't wanna clash. So don't wear anything darker than royal blue or anything lighter I guess than sky blue. In fact, just stay the heck away from blue.
Stella, I just remembered, I can't make it that night.
I gotta trim my eyebrows. You know, these caterpillars can get out of control.
Yeah, I understand. Well, um, I was looking forward to it.
Yeah. I mean, to seeing all those fashions. Wow. Um... But we're still having lunch together tomorrow, right?
(he turns to Nick and Kevin) No, it's not.
Kevin
(he runs to Joe) Hey, Joe. Lunch today? I got an extra peanut butter mushroom sardine salami sandwich with your name on it.(gives the bag to Joe)
Kevin
And now it's disgusting.
I think I'm coming down with something.
Kevin
Aw. Got a case of the love bug, Joe?
I'm not dating Stella, okay? Didn't you see how I canceled on her about the fashion show?
Kevin
Whatever. Let's just go get some lunch.
I can't. I've got lunch with Stella. Kevin, me and Stella have been best buds since we were in kindergarten, okay? We have a tight friendship. I don't wanna mess it up. I mean, would I like to go on a real date with Stella? Of course I would, but... Let's just pretend like I didn't say that.
Kevin: Too late you just did. (Opens his locker and puts the gross sandwich away in his locker and takes out a marker from it) I think it's time Dr. Kevin teaches you a lesson. (then he closes his locker)
Joe: Okay.
Kevin: (he draws faces on his locker) JONAS and Stella are a happy family. But what if one of these smiley faces does felt a certain way about another one of these smiley faces, and that same smiley face didn't the same way as the other smiley face? There'd be no more happy family. Only a sad family, singing sad songs in sad clothes to sad fans. Sad sad sad, very sad indeed.
(grabs the marker and reads it) This is not washable, Kevin.
Kevin
I know. (he opens his locker) That's why I have this. (then he takes the paint and paintbrush out of his locker) I'm not dumb, you know.(Joe leaves with the non washable marker while Kevin repaints his locker)
Kevin
I can't believe you're going to miss our school's basketball championship. Where is your school spirit?
(he stands up cheering with one arm and Kevin looks at him annoyed then Nick sits back down) That was it.
Kevin
Joe, are you almost ready? (Joe goes upstairs) Stella's gonna be here any minute. I have to be there early before the pep rally.
My cold's gotten worst. I don't wanna disappoint Stella again. (Tom enters the bedroom) She was really hurt last time.
Tom: Hey, Joe, I heard you have a cold, and you're going out to some basketball game tonight? This doctor prescribes a little no way, Jose.
You're singing "Great Morning USA" tomorrow morning. Millions of TVs are gonna be tuning in to JONAS.
Kevin
Oh, now, I get it. (Nick shakes his head)
Don't make me sic mom on you. You don't want her coming at you with grandma's thermometer.(he leaves the bedroom and Stella enters)
Hey! So what do you think? (shows Joe the outfit) Just something I threw on, in, like, six hours
Stella, I can't go. I'm sick.
No, Joe, you're wrong. You're more than sick. You're about to be dead.
Look, Joe, if you don't wanna hang out with me anymore. Totally that's fine. I'll still be your stylist. I just wish, you wouldn't feed me, with one excuse one after another, you know? Just have some respect for me. (she leaves upset)
Kevin
Do you want me to draw some more smiley faces?
Stella's more mad at me than ever. Will somebody please tell me what to do? Kevin. Forget it. Nick?
Never mind. Kevin. Wait, Nick's right. I should take Stella to the game. Thanks, Nick.
But I knew what you were thinking. You and me.
Kevin
Joe, if you sing bad tomorrow, it'll look the band look bad. Plus, you can't disobey dad like that just because you hurt somebody's feelings.
It's not someone. It's Stella. (he goes to the pole)
Kevin
Why'd you give him that idea?
Kevin
Well, yeah. All I said was... So technically, you're more to blame.
All I said was "well." (he closes the book and storms off)
(he slides down the middle pole and runs to her) Stella. Stella, wait.
I'm sorry. Do you still wanna go to the game with me?
Sick. What gave you that idea? (he sneezes) I always sneeze before the big games. It's good luck.
But in a cute way, right?
Barely. Come on, let's go.
