[music]

I can't believe you and Dylan are only days away

from launching your new hip-hop label!

Can't believe we got along well enough to get it done.

Now we just need local unsigned artists

to see what we have to offer and sign with us.

And what if they don't?

Then, girl, we wasted a lot of time.

Oh, almost forgot,

we finally figured out what to call the label.

Dyl-Becca Records, I, I love it.

-It's, it's-- -Not that.

Thank you, I did not like it.

It's Beatzlanta Records.

That, I love, for real.

So where are you gonna have the launch party?

-Well-- -So, what are you ladies

talking about?

We got the okay to use the school's gym

for our launch party.

Hey, your dad and I told you,

you should have it here in your family home,

since it is a family-owned business.

But, Mom, me and Dylan agreed

that this party has to impress people.

That means it has to be big, flashy, and screams

"sign with us."

A living room with cozy blankets and our old yearbook pictures

just screams "leave now."

Don't underestimate the power of your home.

There's a lot of love here, and people can feel that.

Help! Help!

[laughing]

Hey, Bethany.

-Help! -Get back here!

-Come, come here! -Hey, what is going on?

Huh, huh?

Baby, I said,

"Dylan, can you just take a little off the back?"

[Yasmine gasping]

[Yasmine] Oh!

-[Myles] Yeah. -[Rebecca] Oh my.

It was an accident.

I used the wrong guard, but I can fix it.

Yeah, I'mma fix you.

Oh! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Mm, it's okay, 'cause I'll just give you a cut,

and then we're even.

-[Yasmine] No. -[Dylan] No!

Come here!

But I have to look my flyest for the launch party,

and for Bethany.

-He's all yours, Mr. Wilson. -Thank you!

-Oh no! -Come, come, come, come,

come, come here!

-You can't fix this! -I told you, I can fix it!

Oh my goodness.

Yeah, so I think

I'm just gonna stick with the school's gym.

A little too much love around here.

[music]

Dylan, Rebecca, I have great news!

Yes! The school board's finally making Dylan Day

an official holiday, right?

Wrong.

The girls' volleyball team made it to the playoffs!

-Yes! -Oh my God,

-that's amazing! -[Dylan] Yeah!

So they'll need the gymnasium,

which means you won't be able to use it for your launch party.

What?

How is this great news?

Well, it's bad news for you,

but great news for the girls' volleyball team!

Go team!

[laughing]

Where are we supposed to find a place

to have our party at the last minute?

[Ace] Hey, guys, wait up!

Rebecca, how desperate are we?

Pretty desperate.

Then I have an idea.

Come on.

Ace's dad owns a warehouse

that hosts movie premieres and parties,

has a dance floor, an arcade, and giant TVs.

So when I perform,

people can see this handsome face up close.

And you lost me.

Come on.

I wanna see people laughing, dancing,

and having the time of their life.

That place is perfect for that.

We just need to ask Ace to ask his father for us.

But Ace is rude and annoying.

He's like the pigeon of people.

He also ran against you

and Charlie for class ambassador,

and he's always trying to be your friend.

Trust me, I don't like it any more than you do.

But what other choice do we have?

Ask if you want. He'll just say no.

Aren't you forgetting that I'm blessed with

the gift of gab?

It's like my superpower.

You did get Dad to spring for

actual movie theater snacks the other night.

Usually, we have to make food at home and sneak it in.

Who eats toast at the movies, anyway?

Right?

Okay, shoot your shot.

So I took her fake teeth and put it in the dog's mouth.

[laughing]

My grandma was so mad, but it was so funny.

Okay, maybe this was a bad idea.

Well, look who it is, my homie D-Money!

So what can I do you for?

As you may or may not know,

me and Rebecca are starting a hip-hop label.

Yeah, I had heard about that.

Could you ask your dad if we could use his event space

for our launch party?

I could do that for my best bud.

We are best buds, right, Dylan?

[laughing]

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

Sorry, I'm gonna need you to say the words.

The words?

Good one. But seriously, say it.

Oh.

Yeah, me and you are best buds.

Slow down there, D-Money.

I have a lot of friends.

You sound thirsty right now.

What?

Okay, I'll ask my dad.

Great, thank you.

But first, you'll need to pay me a finder's fee.

Finder's fee for what?

The place is already found.

Your family owns it.

I don't make the rules.

No, forget it.

How much?

[gasping]

No way.

We won't have enough to rent the actual space.

That's too bad.

Lemme know if you change your mind.

We'll get you the money.

Excellent, but I'd, but I'd hurry up.

The place books up fast.

[sighing]

And just how do you expect us to get that extra money?

I don't know.

My brain went on pause, and my lips just kept moving.

See what you got us into?

Ugh!

So, what's happening right now?

I don't know.

Charlie wants to tell us something.

Right.

That usually means it's gonna cost me something.

Oh, Myles.

Good day, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson.

I would like to invite you to join me in a new venture.

-Mm-hmm. -Mm.

[laughing]

I would like to create

a pop-up restaurant in the garage.

A pop-up?

Yeah, you know, a shop or a restaurant

that pops up in a building for a day

then pops away the next day.

[Viola] We were thinking ten guests,

mm, to feast on Charlie's fine dining.

At no cost to you guys.

-Mm-hmm. -Yeah, okay, well,

the, the price is right. Keep talking.

Rebecca and Dylan are taking their thing to the next level.

I should too.

-And I'll be there to help. -Aww.

I wanna be there for my grandbaby.

[giggling]

Well, it's free.

[laughing]

And we get to support our son, yeah.

-Yeah. -Well, the answer for me is yes.

[giggling]

And I call dibs on all the leftovers.

[giggling]

She wants the leftovers.

I heard her.

[Charlie and Viola laughing]

[Charlie] She wants the leftovers.

-She wants the leftovers. -What leftovers?

She must not understand.

[music]

So your plan to get the money

for Ace's finder's fee is, um, what now?

I'm doing rap-o-grams.

Someone hires me to deliver a message to someone else.

And people are willing to pay you for this?

Yeah.

Well, I did offer

satisfaction guaranteed or their money back.

Oh, why would you do that?

Have you heard my rapping skills?

We're good.

Time to deliver my first rap-o-gram.

Principal Matthews!

Dylan, why are you dressed like that?

Because I have a message from Mr. Elliot to you.

Check it.

Oh, wrong button.

[laughing]

Uh, yeah.

Hey, look.

* It'll be fun and educational *

* You can trust, and you need to support, *

* and of course, a bus *

* He's trying to take his students *

* to something therapeutic, *

* and it'll change their lives forever, *

* if he take his class to this musical *

Ah, mm-hmm,

I already told Mr. Elliot he couldn't take the drama club

on this field trip.

But that rap was so good, I've reconsidered.

Tell him I said yes.

Yes!

[drum beat playing]

Uh.

[drum beat playing]

How you turn this thing off?

[music]

[music]

[snoring]

Well, the last diner just left.

Oh, thank goodness.

Doing a pop-up makes me pooped.

Hope everyone enjoyed their food.

Oh, they did.

Look at the tips they left.

Wow!

But, Grandma, you helped.

So you deserve some of this.

Oh, I already got my half.

-We made that much money? -Mm-hmm.

I was thinking that maybe if I talk to your parents

and convince them to let us do a second pop-up night,

we could invite more people.

How many more?

Well, I'm thinking we ought to go big,

based on the size of the garage.

And if we position the tables right,

mm, let me do the math.

[laughing]

I, I'd say about 40 people.

If we have 40 people at 15 bucks a plate,

then we can make...

40 plus 15,

-Carry one-- -What is that, the new math?

[laughing]

No.

[Viola laughing]

-That gets us a ton of cash! -Yes.

But my parents won't go for that.

They were pretty clear about one night

and only 10 guests.

Well, don't you worry.

Your dad won't say no to me.

He owes me.

I still got a piece of a jack stuck in my heel

from when he left them on the floor as a kid.

[laughing]

Ouch!

Mm-hmm.

Yo, Kelly,

I gotta break some bad news to you.

* One, two One, two *

* It's over, baby girl, and I'm sad to say, *

* but your boyfriend has told me it's time to part ways *

* Now don't you sniffle, and don't you cry, *

* 'cause sooner later, you'll find another guy *

* Ooh *

Yeah, it's over.

[laughing]

Did you let her down easy for me?

Yeah, and it did not go too well.

Sorry to hear about that.

Hi, boyfriend!

Let's go, boyfriend.

[laughing]

What?

[laughing]

Dylan, your rap broke up with Kelli with an "I",

not Kelly with a "Y"!

Well, you were the one organizing this operation.

Wait, who is Kelli with an "I" dating?

Dylan, Kelli said that you broke up with her for me,

and she doesn't believe that I didn't put you up to it.

Ace, mistakes were made today.

Oh, this isn't a mistake.

You can forget about me asking my dad

for you to use his event space.

Come on, Ace, it was a simple mix-up.

And you can forget about trying to sign me to your label.

Bro, that was never gonna happen.

[Ace] Yes, it was.

Man!

I'm not gonna point any fingers here--

But you're going to, anyway.

You were the one in charge of the bookings

for the rap-o-grams,

and you confused

Kelly with a "y" with Kelli with an "i".

You can't blame me.

There's too many dang Kellies in this school.

Look, if we fix things

between Ace and Kelli with an "i",

then maybe Ace could still ask his father

to let us use the event space.

And how do we do that?

I got an idea that might work.

Please, Kelli, please, please get back with Ace!

It was all our fault. Please!

Why should I?

These past 15 minutes of freedom have been amaze!

Kelli, we need that event space from Ace's dad.

And we can't do that if Ace is mad at us. Please.

Okay, fine.

I'll consider getting back together with him

if you clean and decorate my locker.

Oh, you got it.

And when we're done with your locker,

it'll look so good that you'll wanna live in it.

Why would I wanna live in my locker?

Anyways, here's my combination, and don't disappoint me.

Wow, she's kind of terrible too, right?

Yeah, she and Ace are the perfect couple.

Mm-hmm.

Sounds great. I'm glad Kelli liked her locker.

And yes, I'll eat lunch with you.

Every day?

I mean, sure, best bud.

Okay, bye.

[sighing]

[sighing]

It's official.

Ace's dad says we can use the space

for the launch party.

That's great.

Is it, though?

Maybe we should have the launch party here.

What are you talking about?

I thought you said you wanted the party

to have everything you wanted: people laughing, dancing,

and having the time of their lives.

I did say that,

but we have all that stuff right here.

Plus, I won't have to pretend to like Ace.

Are you sure?

I mean, this is where the idea for the label first started.

Real rap.

Okay, well, I will let Mom and Dad know

that we wanna have the launch party here.

Okay, let's go.

[indistinct chatter]

[Rebecca] Attention, everybody. Attention.

[cheering and clapping]

Thank you all for coming

to Beatzlanta Records launch party.

We didn't know if this would ever happen.

Yeah, that's one hundred!

Uh, okay.

But we're here now.

We wanna tell you why Beatzlanta is special.

First off, this is a family label,

so we want our artists to feel like family.

Yeah, some labels treat their artists

like they don't even matter.

But we won't do that.

We'll always put you first.

And we want you to make the music that you love.

We're investing in you,

so we hope that you'll invest in us.

[cheering and clapping]

[indistinct chatter]

Jeremy! Thanks for coming.

Yeah, that's what friends do.

They support each other.

Oh, by the way, you look amazing.

Thanks, so do you.

[Jeremy] Thanks.

So, you wanna dance?

Sure.

[indistinct chatter]

[Viola] Oh.

The spicy tuna with cucumber slices

was a big hit.

Yeah, one lady almost bit my finger

as I was handing it to her.

I already said I was sorry, Yasmine.

Great to hear!

About the food, not about Grandma biting you.

I'm almost ready for the next round.

[Myles] Excuse me, excuse me.

All right, excuse me. Hey, hey, all right, get it, get it.

All right, watch out now.

Excuse me.

Hey, hey, uh, so, um, what day did you say

that second pop-up was happening?

On the 15th.

Really?

What's going on?

This food isn't gonna walk itself out to the party.

Oh my gosh, I put the wrong date on the pop-up invites.

All the people are coming now.

It's okay, I'mma just send the diners home.

Don't worry, Charlie's already making food

-for the launch party. -No, no, we'll get a bad review,

and no one will ever come to our pop-ups again.

Charlie, what do you wanna do?

I can do this.

I just need to get creative

and make the food we have stretch.

But I'm gonna need your help too.

Well, I'll take the guests to the garage,

the long, scenic route.

You guys get in there and get it ready.

All right, got it.

Come on, babe.

[clapping and cheering]

All right, let's see what you got.

* Flexing, flexing, we always flexing *

* Christopher John BZ with perfection *

* We flexing, we flexing We always flexing *

* If you wanna learn, we gonna teach you a lesson *

* I'm going on the top right now *

* You know I'm John Beetu with a crown *

Yeah!

[cheering and clapping]

Okay, okay.

Yo, John Beetu,

I think you should sign with our label.

I don't think you're ready for me.

What?

Get me outta here.

[music]

Thank you. All right.

Okay, we're gonna have more food coming.

Oh, don't. No, I'm trying to take this to other places.

-[Viola] No jumping. -[Yasmine] Oh my goodness.

Thank you, thank you. No, no, o-- o-- o-- okay, okay,

get off me, get off me! Get off me, heathens!

[sighing]

Hey, look, large party guests, man,

they keep snatching all the food off the plate

before I can even serve the diners in the garage.

But it's okay, 'cause I'm out here

doing my thing for you, Charlie,

and looking good while I'm doing it.

[Myles laughing]

Ooh, I can't wait to see what Charlie has for us next!

It can't be better than those fish sticks

and pickle slices we had.

-Mm. -Mm-mmm.

[Myles] Gentlemen, please.

-Ooh. -Yeah,

enjoy this peanut butter and jelly.

-On a cracker? -With bacon, mm-hmm.

All the fuss in France right now.

Ooh, yes, I've heard that!

Uh, I'm very well traveled, you know.

I've been to Toronto.

That's in Canada.

Mm-hmm, yeah, yeah, I have a passport.

I know.

[laughing]

What's wrong with them?

It's probably all that stuff on your face.

[laughing]

It's called sweat, Charlie.

It's called hard work.

Maybe you should wipe off that "hard work".

No, no, I want people to see me, uh, working hard, you know.

This is evidence that I'm working hard,

you know what I mean?

You try it one day.

-You'll see. -Yeah.

All right, come on, keep it coming.

Okay.

I bet your barber didn't work hard.

Huh? What's that?

Huh? What? Oh, oh, oh, uh,

I'm getting your steak right now.

All right.

[music]

This was the best launch party I've ever been to!

Albeit, it was the first, but still...

Yeah, the speech and the rap were fire.

Proud of you guys.

Thanks.

Thanks.

That means a lot, coming from my boo.

Since it's your big night, I'mma let you have that one.

[laughing]

So, Beccs, how many people wanna sign with us?

Uh, zero.

There better be a one in front of that zero.

People have asked about the label, but that's it.

So we wasted all of our time on a label

that nobody cares about?

[sighing]

I wouldn't give up just yet.

This is Mario Spario,

and he's looking to change labels.

Yeah, that's why I left the launch party earlier.

Had to tell my old label it wasn't working, so I'm back.

So was it my speech that got you?

Or mine?

Both, and I especially liked the part

about being a family here.

So what do we do now?

Let's make it official.

-Welcome to the family! -All right.

-All right! Yeah! -We'll draw up contracts.

Yes! I told you!

-Yes! -All right!

-Hey, hey. -Ooh.

[sighing]

-You ready? -Yeah.

[breathing deeply]

[cheering and clapping]

There's no better way to show you

what Beatzlanta is capable of than to have my label partner,

and most importantly, my fam,

Young Dylan, bless the mic.

[cheering and clapping]

[music]
