I sure do, Mr. Moon.
Yeah, look at you. (giggling)
Great job, everybody. Great job.
Thanks, Mr. Moon.
Yeah!
I think we pretty much nailed it.
So, is she here?
(audience laughing)
There. See the dog, middle third row?
ROSITA: Oh, she’s younger than I imagined.
BUSTER: Yeah, well, supposedly, she’s the best scout in show business.
I can’t tell if-if she’s enjoying it.

Oh, very good, Mr. Moon.
So far, I counted nine smiles, two belly laughs and five chuckles.
Uh, though the last one could’ve just been gas.
Well, that’s proof, right? She must like the show.
Oh, my gosh. You think so?
I hope so.
All right, now, keep up the good work.
Come on, everybody, back to positions.
GUNTER: She’d be, like, cuckoo not to love the show.
(sighs) Dream big dreams.
That’s what I always said, right?

Uh, hi. So glad you could make it.
Um, would you like some popcorn?
Oh, no, thanks.
I’m not staying for the second half, so…
Oh. But, uh, we thought you were enjoying it.
I mean, not that we were watching you or anything.
It really is a cute little show. (chuckles)
Just not what we’re looking for.
But-but wait. Y-You got to see the second act.
I’m-I’m telling you, (chuckles) it’s a smash.
Okay, Mr. Moon, can I be honest?
Of course.
Are you sure?
‘Cause folks say that when they don’t really mean it.
No, please, please, be as honest as you like.
You’re not good enough.
What?
Taxi!
You know, maybe I will have that popcorn.
Look, you’ve got a nice little local theater here, and it’s great for what it is, but trust me, you’d never make it in the big leagues.
Bye, now.
NANA: Well, what did she say?
I’ll be right back.
Nah. Mm-mm.

I’ll call you back.
Are you out of your mind?

But there is no way you’ll…

Hey, do you mind? I’m in a meeting here.

I was reaching too high.
Honestly, one negative comment, and it’s all, “Woe is me.”
Nana, come on. She said I’m not good enough.
I mean, heck, I’ve just been told that my destiny, all of my hopes and dreams, uh, they all end right here.
Well, what did you expect?
That she would drop to her knees and declare you a genius?
Roll out the red carpet for the great Buster Moon!
She-she ran me off the road into a canal.
Well, you’re still in one piece, aren’t you?
Well, yeah, but…
Well, anyone who dares set out to follow their dreams is bound to face a lot worse than a dip in the canal.
Ah, Hobbs. I found him.
Uh, bring the car round, will you?
There’s a good chap.
I-I… I just thought she’d at least see we deserved a shot.
Never mind what this person you don’t even know said.
Do you think you’re good enough?
Of course, but…
Then you must fight for what you believe in.
Guts, stamina, faith.

Well, listen, I know this is crazy short notice, but you always said you’d come back to work with us when the time was right.
Of course.
Well, this is that time. (grunts)
RICK: Here, paycheck.
I’m getting the gang together to go audition for this huge show…
Just-just a second.
Hey, Rick, how come you’re only paying me half what the other acts get?
I pay what I think you’re worth, sweetheart.
Oh, okay. See, I have this rule about not letting guys like you tell me what I’m worth, so, you know, unless I get paid like everyone else, I’m out of here.

I mean, that theater scout, she didn’t think we were good enough.
ASH: She sounds like a jerk.
Yeah, total jerk.
Yeah, but she’s wrong… dead wrong.
There’s a reason our show is sold out every night, and I’m telling you, her boss is gonna love it.
Ooh. Or maybe we could just, like, do a different show, you know?
Gunter, please, I got this.

Promise?
Promise.
Mr. Moon, we’re ready to start building the rest of the sets and…
Okay, okay, okay, listen.
(hushed): I don’t exactly know what they are yet, so could you give me one more night to figure this out?
(loudly): Hey, this guy doesn’t have it figured out, so we can’t start work right now.
(stammering)
(clears throat) Mason?
Did everybody hear that?
Hey, don’t…
He does not have the show figured out.
(Buster shushing, stammering)
I’m looking into his eyes, and all I see is fear.
Uh-uh. Mm-mm. (whistles)
Hey, hey, hey, listen, listen…
And a little bit of shame.
Yeah, yeah.
Look, I-I think everyone heard you, Mason.
Thank you so much.
Gunter… (clears throat) we have work to do.
GUNTER: And then I’m thinking, Ash, you know, she can, like, totally have a duet with Clay Calloway, ’cause, like, she’s a star that is, like, guiding them all the way back home again.
(laughs) Yes, Gunter. That’s perfect for Ash.
(doorbell rings)
(clamoring)
Mommy!
Oh, my darlings, you’re here. (chuckles)
Yeah, Johnny!
(chuckles) Oh.
(Rosita chuckles)
My gosh, I wasn’t expecting you till the morning.
I know, but they couldn’t wait to see you.
The star of the show, huh?
Can you believe it?
It’s literally my dream come true.
I know. Mwah.
Ew.
I am so proud of you, honey.
(piglets clamoring, laughing)
Uh… help.
Mr. Moon, I found him.
Clay Calloway?
Yeah. I found his home address.
(Buster cheers)
No way.
Yes way.
Miss Crawly, I’m gonna need you to go visit him first thing tomorrow.
Oh, yes, sir.
You’ll need to rent a car and take him a letter and, uh, maybe that fruit basket.
Yes, the fruit basket.
You got that?
Got it.

And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
We’re dancing. We’re dancing.
We’re holding. We’re holding.

I said hold, Johnny. He’s not holding.
And one, two, three, four…
All right, I’m… I am trying.
Let’s not forget, this is Redshore City, not your little local theater.
And five, six, seven, eight.
Ryan, that was excellent.
Johnny, you are doing it wrong.
That was awful.
Come on, Johnny. You can do better.
He’s freaking me out.
BUSTER: Johnny.
I’m trying.
KLAUS: Thrust.
And thrust, and thrust.
You’re not thrusting, Johnny.
Come on. Thrust.
Thrust, and thrust.
Still not thrusting. Can you thrust, please?
Five, six, seven, and tippy-toes, tippy-toes.
I don’t see your tippy-toes.
Oh, come on, he’s having a laugh.
Tippy-toes. Come on, let’s go.
KLAUS: Seven, and…
That is rubbish, terribly poor, really bad.
(Johnny panting)
That bloke absolutely hates me.
Hang in there, Johnny.
The first week’s always tough.
Yeah. You’re right. You’re right.
Meena, come and meet your partner.
Oh, my gosh, he’s here?
Yep. He’s called Darius.

I can’t do this.

I wasn’t.

I-I can’t just give you Rosita’s part. I mean…

What, you got a kink in your think?
It’s just that I wrote this part for Rosita and…

What you got here is an opportunity to make me happy.
And when an opportunity like that comes along, you’d better grab it!

No, Mr. Crystal. Well, I-I think she’s wonderful.

Oh, can I go with you, please?
Uh, I don’t know.
Come on, you’re gonna need me.
I know everything about this guy.
Uh… I think you’re right.

I… I can’t imagine what it must be like to lose someone so special, but do you think this is what Ruby would’ve wanted for you?
I mean, you out here on your own and never singing again?
No, y-you don’t understand.
There’s… there’s no rock star living here anymore.
Clay, you just need to play again.
Your songs will bring you back.
You can. You can reconnect with…
No, I can’t!

Hey, Mr. Moon!
Come on!
Get out here, Moon.
Come on out here!

Linda: Jimmy!
Oh, my gosh, listen to that crowd.
You are a genius.
Yeah, you really are a genius, sir.
Yeah, you got that right, Linda.

JIMMY: Thank you, thank you. Too kind. I appreciate it, really. I-I do. Look, I am very proud of this show. We did great work here. Great work. And my good friend, Clay… great to have him back, right? (The audience cheering) Yeah! And listen, I look forward to seeing this show run at my theater for many, many years to come. Right, Moon? (He turns only to see that Buster and the cast are gone much to his shock) Moon?
[The audience begins to laugh at Jimmy, who goes afraid and humiliated until he sees a furious Suki accompanied by six police officers.]
SUKI: Officers, arrest that wolf! (?)
JERRY: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! He’s innocent! Mr. Crystal, please! I love you!
