Mom's not gonna get that, is she?
Rights of freedom, my man.
DennisNick, neihgbros. What's up, buddy? Whoo! JONAS in the house!
BMBig Man
No strangers in the house!
Dennis
I'm not a stranger. I live next door. You see, the haters call me Dennis Zimmer, but the players call me D.Z.
BMBig Man
Let me run them through the lab.
Dennis
So when's the party, guys?
Dennis
He's messing with me, right? Let me break it down to you, okay, guys? In L.A., if you don't throw a party, you don't get invited to the parties, okay? Then the paparazzi forget you. Then the media forget you. Then the fans forget you.
How do you know so much about this?
Dennis
I watch a lot of "So, Where are they now?" shows.
Actually, I think this sneezy guy might have a point.
Dennis
D.Z., but gracias.
Look, if that's the way this town works, then I say bring it. We're known for our parties, am I right?
I thought we were known for smelling super good, or is that just me? (Nick and Kevin smell themselves).
Hey, thanks for the tip. We're gonna announce ourselves with authority. I'll take care of the guest list.
I'll take care of the music.
I'll take care of my looks.
Nice, Joe. Way to be a team player.
Dude, I gotta look good for Stella.
Dennis
Oh, what can I handle?
Okay, I'm in Hollywood. I can do this. (dials) Hey babe, party, JONAS. Be there. It's Nick. Yeah, from JONAS. (dial tone) Babe? She's not coming.
Dennis
Why don't you let me be the entertainment? I got mad skills. Check this out. (beat boxing) D.Z. On the beats, getting honey on the streets.
Dennis
Oh, you like that? Whoo! Kevin, neighbro, k-dog.
This is the best organic clothing store in L.A. Everything here biodegrades before it goes out of style.
I knew that so much. So are you working on anything new this summer?
Well, this is totes hush-hush, but you know the "forever April" books?
Yeah, I love anything with ghosts.
Well, you're looking at one. I'm playing April in the movie.
That's awesome. I'd love to be in one of those.
No, it's just I've always wanted to.
Joe, don't want-- Do. Oh, here. Try this on for your party tonight.
How did you know about that?
Everybody knows. And yes, I'm coming. Go.
Okay. (melodic ringtone playing)
Good afternoon, Stella. You smell nice. Is that a new perfume? No. Stella, what's up? Yeah, I rode a motorcycle here. Formal, casual. Formal, casual. Stella, meet your boyfriend. You're so lame. How do I look?
You didn't even look at me.
Joe, I've been looking at you my entire life.
Listen, Stella likes you for you, not for what you wear. Please don't be so shallow. (phone rings) Yeah. That's good. No, A-list-- that's what we're going for. Thank you. Unbelievable. Could you please take these to the pool? I'm getting good at this. (car horn honks) Hey.
Gentlemen, say hello to our new best friend.
Dennis
Oh, I was hoping, but I never expected-- you're talking about the car. Cool.
Not just any car. This baby is a fully modified, Retrofitted biodiesel cruising machine. And it runs on cooking oil.
Kevin, you were in charge of music. (engine revs)
Sounds like a sweet symphony to me. (Joe sniffs the car)
Smells like a side of french fries.
I've been busting my butt all day trying to get this party together, and your contribution is buying yourself a car?
It's not just for me. It's for all of us. And it even can fit Stella and Macy.
Yeah, if they ever get here.
Dennis
Can I drive?
Hey, fans. It's Macy here again. We are at the crib de la JONAS, which is really bad spanish, but it's still a pretty cool place. Let's check in with the guys and see what they have planned this summer. So Kevin, what's up?
Oh, hey. Just feeding my baby. Found out bacon grease made her backfire. But what she really loves is Chinese. So big shout to all my friends over at hunan lotus. Thanks for sending over all that peanut oil. Oh, and keep frying up those greasy egg rolls.
This book's got it all-- It's got adventure, romance. The cover's pretty cool. And the movie's starring Vanessa Page, although she told me to keep that totes hush-hush.
You realize this is going on the web?
Say hello to our new summer roommate.
Hi. I spoke to Stella's mom and we decided the best way to chaperone these girls was up close and personal.
Just doing a video blog about what the band is up to this summer.
Just working on a california-inspired song.
Oh, can you give the fans a preview?
(plays one note) We've only been here one day.
Dennis
Yo, what's up, people? D.Z. Here. And this summer I plan to spend 24/7 with JONAS. I mean, if the days were longer, We'd probably spend 25/8, right?
BMBig Man
You got my muffins?
Dennis
No.
Okay, well, that was the behind-the-scenes look. Macy Misa is saying Welcome to a summer like no other.
Hey. I was just updating the JONAS site. Anything you want me to post?
Post this: "Macy's offline." You're supposed to be on vacation.
So this pool's cool and all, but I'm kind of thinking beach. It's so close, you know.
Yeah, I can almost smell it.
Dennis
That's my body spray.
Hey D.Z., you ever hear of knocking?
Dennis
Yeah, how about "knock knock, I smell good"? It's beach by Stone Stevens. And I'm rocking his man-jewelry.
Wait, Stone Stevens, the pro surfer?
Dennis
Yeah, he's a close personal homie of mine. You want to meet him?
Yeah, sounds like a rad adventure. I just said "rad" so Cali.
Well, if she's in, I'm in. Take us.
Dennis
Well, I would love to, but I don't have a car.
Dennis
Well, my moms can.
Okay, great, so let's go.
Dennis
But she's at pilates for an hour, so until then we're straight chillin' poolside.
I'm calling a cab. (leaves)
So what brings you to my shredquarters, Nick?
We're here for the summer. We're taking in the sights.
All right, all right. Hey, you want a fish taco? You want a fish taco. Guys, dos fish tacos-- one for Nick and one for his friend-girlfriend.
Whoa, she's not-- Macy runs our website.
Yeah? Well, I've got a Web empire. I use it to spread my message. It's all about easy livin', saving the ocean. And if you want to be cool, buy my stuff.
Dennis
Yeah, that's where I score my stone juice. That's what a guava will get you, right, bro?
And for you it's on the house.
Well, see, we're more about our fans than selling stuff.
That's Noble. Hey, maybe I could interest you In a position on my website, Working closely with me, of course.
You're way too busy with the JONAS site.
No. No, I'm not. We're on vacation.
Where did you get that idea?
From you this morning. You said I was offline.
Amigos, I don't want to make waves, Just want to ride 'em. But if you change your mind, Here's my card. Dudes, what's the E.T.A. on those tacos?
Dennis
It's cool. I ate at home.
Dennis
Whoa. Oh, hey, bro. Just making sure your pool works.
Listen, I need your help with something.
Dennis
Oh, be right there. That was touch-and-go for a second. What can I do you for, bro?
Listen, if I had anybody else to ask, I would.
Dennis
Oh, thanks, bro.
I'm gonna need a wet suit, a surfboard and a ride from your mom.
Dennis
Got it. Where are we going?
Dennis
Oh, I love it.
Hey, guys. Sorry I'm late. - Big announcement?
Dennis
Ah. Let me put this in the form Of a riddle. Now what has two paddles, A net and the hottest celebrities in town?
Are you talking about Justin Timberlake's ping-pong tournament?
Dennis
Correct. Now this is the biggest charity event Of the summer, okay? J.T.'s all about giving back.
Yeah, we know all about it, but all the spots are booked.
Dennis
I guess it just depends on who you know. You see, my cousin is the assistant to the guy Who's the assistant to the guy who picks the
No, it's not. But more to the point, That means that only one of us gets to play.
Dennis
Correctamente. F.Y.I., I'm adding "amente" to everything I say. So which one of you three, is the bestamente?
Me, I'd probably crush it, but I've gotta study my script For the movie that I'm starring in, "Forever April"
Dennis
So Joe Hollywood is out. How about you guys, huh? Why don't you play for it? Kevin versus Nick?
I'm in. A little brotherly competition.
Dennis
Oh. So... (clears throat) Excitedamente. All right. Good luck on that. All righty.
I need your love. You need my love.
You know what? I ask the questions around here. So where are you taking Stella tonight? (Macy is spying)
- Um, to get frozen yogurt.
- What do you have against ice cream?
Dennis
So as determined by the pre-game flip of a coin, The Kevinator will serve first. By the way, I'm no longer saying "amente." I'm now saying "inator."
The cobra chop is cheating?
Look, Nick. If you can't handle my level of play, you should quit now, - Just like you did third-grade Spanish.
Dennis
- Ooh.
I couldn't roll my Rs because my tongue wasn't fully formed yet.
- Always an excuse with this guy.
You know what? - Just serve the ball, Kevin Percy.
- Don't you use my middle name.
- Oh, I think I just did, Percy. (Dennis gives Kevin the ball)
Dennis
- Whoo! Nice. Intensamente.
You ate baby food until you were 10.
It was just the applesauce.
Dennis
Oh! Point to the Nickinator! Whew. Guys, this is getting personal.
How dare you interrogate my date!
What am I supposed to do, Seeing as you decided to keep the whole thing from me?
I tried to tell you, but you were a little too busy... Playing house with Vanessa and Shakira.
It's Chakra, and he's a boy. (Chakra is barking) The point is you had a date tonight - And you didn't tell me.
- Well, you didn't tell me about the dogsitting.
I didn't tell you about my dentist appointment either.
Vanessa is trusting you with something that she loves. That's a big step in a relationship.
We're not in a relationship.
Well, she thinks that you are.
Yet you're the one who has a date tonight.
It's just yogurt! (barking continues)
Chakra! Chakra! No, Chakra! Come back! Chakra!
Dennis
So it all comes down to this: The winner of the next point will take the crown, And moi, to meet Justin Timberlake. (Nick takes the ball out of the hat) (dramatic music playing) (Chakra barks and swallows the ball) (Dennis gasps)
That was our last ball. - When did we get a dog?
Chakra! - Heel! - Stay! Stay! - Chakra, come back! - Chakra, come on! Don't run! (Dennis runs after Chakra)
Our dog's name is Chakra?
- It's not our dog. I'm watching him for Vanessa. He got scared when Stella and I were arguing.
- She has a date tonight - And she didn't tell me.
- Didn't you guys decide to be friends? Doesn't that mean you're free to date whoever you want?
Yeah, but I just pictured myself dating and Stella just... not.
You do realize how it sounds, right?
When I just said it, I realized what a jerk I sounded like.
Yeah, well, you shouldn't tell us. You should tell her.
Dennis
(panting) Okay. Come on, boy.
You're right. Thanks. (leaves)
Dennis
Yo, bros. Ah. It's game point. (gives the ball that Chakra swallowed to Kevin)
Yeah, that's gonna be a problem.
Maybe it's for the best. This game was getting pretty ugly.
Yeah, there's no such thing as a friendly game of ping-pong. (fistbumps Nick)
Dennis
Hey, guys, hold on. We're real close-- one more point.
Dennis
Guys, wait. I don't want to have to come down on you. All right, look. I promised my guy a JONAS and I don't front. Okay? So you guys have
Dennis
Or our friendship is in serious trouble.
Our friendship will be fine. Trust me.
Dennis
Guys, it's game time.
We've got you covered, D.Z.
Dennis
Oh, so it's you. Great, I was hoping for you. - Don't hate Kev or anything.
Dennis
Kevin baby! My favorite brother!
Dennis
So you guys are leaving me hanging?
We're not gonna leave you hanging. We promised you a brother, so fresh off the jet from Jersey...
Baby applesauce. Guys, it's just a lot smoother. (Nick put his head down)
Dennis
So... clears throat) are you any good?
Back home they call me the Frankinator.
Dennis
(chuckles) Where have you guys been hiding this kid? Let me see you do this. Yeah. Definitely. How long have you been playing?
- We are shredding "Twinkle Twinkle."
I think a guitar should always be a two-person instrument.
Depends on the two people. Maybe you should try it on your own.
Dennis
- (rock music playing) - Hey, how you doing?
Hey, D.Z., we're kind of in the middle of something.
Dennis
Introducing D.Z., A.K.A.: Lady candy, as in candy for ladies, not as in, you know, I'm a lady named Candy.
I get it. I don't want to get it, but I get it.
Dennis
Ladies and gentlemen, I have a big date tonight. And-- oh, this is real velour, so if you were to rate my look on a scale of jamming to slamming?
Dennis
- You hate it. Hug me.
Ow ow, D.Z.! You're hair's really sharp.
Dennis
Oh, sorry. I must have overgelled.
Okay, D.Z., back away from the JONAS. Whatever is going on, it can't be that bad.
Dennis
The-the truth is I'm not the player you think I am. And I've never been on a date before. There, I said it.
That is a huge shock. - But it's gonna be okay.
Dennis
All right? I'm meeting Andrea tonight. My threads are busted, And this bling is giving me a rash.
Okay, I can help you. But you're gonna have to do it my way, understand?
Dennis
- Yeah, where do we start?
May I present the new and majorly-improved D.Z.?
Wow, D.Z., is that really you?
Dennis
Holla! Back up the cool bus. Vroom. Beep beep beep beep. (beatboxes) - Whoo.
I forgot he still talks. It really kills the look.
Dennis
Wait wait, you guys think I need more than this?
Girls love a good dresser, but the clothes are just the packaging.
Uh-oh, Macy's about to lay some knowledge on us, D.Z.
Dennis
Oh, well, D.Z.'s all ears.
- Well, we like a guy with confidence.
Dennis
- I reek of confidence. That's my body spray-- "Confidence" by Stone Stevens.
Yeah, there's such a thing as too much confidence. (blows the body spray around him away then he covers his nose)
We like it when you listen to us.
Dennis
Oh, like I said, all ears.
- But still have your own opinions.
Dennis
- Totally. - (whispers) About what?
- Oh, I know! We like a guy who can make us laugh...
Dennis
Well, I got this off the back of a gum wrapper: Why don't seagulls fly by the bay? Because then they'd be called "bay-gulls. - Stop it.
- But not with jokes. I really hate jokes.
Dennis
Ahem. Come on, flying baked goods?
D.Z., just listen. Care about your family and your friends. And show the world you have a beautiful spirit. And always always chew with your mouth closed. - Got it?
Dennis
Got it. Anything else?
One more thing: If you like a girl, you should tell her, so she's not confused by the messages you're sending.
Dennis
Got it, processed. Outskis. (leaves)
- Thank you. So anything I said surprise you at all? Or...?
Jokes-- I didn't know they were a deal breaker. (leaves)
