Horrid Henry, Rockstar!

==Synopsis==
Henry is going to be a rockstar, and no-one is going to stop him - except maybe Moody Margaret, who is up to her usual tricks!
== Plot ==
The episode begins with Henry playing the band called the Zero Zombies. But, Mum came in and told him he's supposed to be doing his homework. Henry drums, but Mum told him to stop or else. He drums again, but this time, Mum grounds him and tells him he will do his homework every night this week. Henry told her that the Zero Zombies can't practice without him. Mum replied that they will have to practice without him. Henry knew that's not fair, but she told him to do his homework. She shuts the door, making Henry scream 'Noooo!!!', opening the title card. 
After getting an idea, Henry then decides to write a letter to Ed Banger. Peter comes in and tells him that Mum wants him to know if he's doing his homework. Henry tells him to go away, but Peter assumes he's not doing his homework and tells Mum. Henry continues to write his letter as Mum checks on him and closes the door again. 
At night time, Mum tells Henry and Peter to brush their teeth, and she tells them it's bedtime. Henry heads straight to bed, and Mum opens his bedroom door and sees that he's in bed already. He tells Mum he's having an early night, so Mum asks him if he brushed his teeth. Henry says he did this morning. Mum says goodnight to Henry, so she closes the bedroom door.
The next morning, Henry tries to post his letter in the mailbox when Ralph calls him over and says they just got their first gig at his grandad's birthday party. Moody Margaret catches, reads the letter, puts it in her schoolbag, and tries to get Henry out of the way by taking over lead singer of the Zero Zombies while heading into the school. In class, Ralph asked Henry if they can do band practice at his house tonight but before Henry could tell him why he can't make it, Margaret gets him sent out of the classroom by Miss Battle-Axe and lies that Henry has a disease meaning he has to go to bed early and not sing at all assuring Ralph she'll find him a new lead singer then they both stop talking as Miss Battle-Axe looks at them.
In the playground, Henry tries again to tell Ralph why he can't come but Ralph says he knows about it much to his surprise. Henry promises Ralph he won't let him on the big day tomorrow which he also knew too then Miss Battle-Axe calls Henry to have a word. Margaret introduces their new Zero Zombies' lead singer, Herself and tells Ralph, Al, Bert, Graham and William to be at her treehouse six o' clock sharp tonight and leaves. The boys then look furious with Ralph about the new development and allowing this to happen since they hated Margaret but Ralph explains the current situation about Henry.
Meanwhile Henry was in his room with Fang writing that when he's king, homework will be listening to music and playing computer game but then he looks out the window and wonders why Ralph is sneaking into Margaret's treehouse. Henry tells Fang that he'll just have to get used to doing his homework instead of not being king for a long time.
Henry asked Mum if a letter came for him three times but she says 'NO' day after day. Henry writes a letter to Ed Banger that he's still hasn't received his message and tears it up in the bin. In Margaret's treehouse, Bert, Ralph and Al play the music as Margaret sings wrongly bad. Thinking it's the microphone. Ralph soon says that it's his grandad's birthday in 3 days. Margaret starts shouting at him. Margaret then starts to warm up by singing very loudly making Al and Bert cover their ears. While she was doing that, Ralph sees Henry's letter to Ed Banger and reads the real reason why he couldn't come because of his parents making him stay in every night and do his homework. Margaret was ready for her solo but Ralph takes Al and Bert out of her treehouse and posts Henry’s letter to Ed Banger. 
The next day, Henry finally receives a letter from Ed Banger saying he does have to brush his teeth otherwise his mum nags him something rotten, keep on rocking, and a CD to help him with his homework too. Henry arrives just in time at the Old people's home with his boombox and passes through Margaret. Ralph's grandad grabs hold of Margaret with his walking stick refusing to let her through and the boys play the tune Henry's got to celebrate Ron’s Birthday. Everyone was happy except Margaret, ending the episode.
== Lyrics of Happy Guitar Month ==
#When nothing's going right, everything's going wrong
#I close my bedroom door, and I sing this song
#I sing about the things that I wanna do
#Sing about the things I'm gonna do
#Could be in a movie, that'd be groovy
#It'd be so groovy, to be in a movie
#To be in a movie, that'd be groovy
#It'd be so groovy, groovy

==Trivia==
*Moody Margaret's full name is revealed in this episode officially making her the first character to reveal her surname.
*Margaret sings horribly out of tune in this episode, therefore, when she says that there is something is wrong with the microphone, the truth is, her singing was out of tune, while she just continues her ego about her singing.
*This is the first episode that doesn't fade out to black at the end of the episode; instead, it uses effects.
*Aerobic Al and Beefy Bert appear as major roles in the episode but do not speak, this is possibly due to the absense of Wayne Forester during the actors saying their lines before this episode aired.
*Though nameless in the episode, the song's title has been revealed by the Horrid Henry YouTube channel to be Happy Guitar Month.
*This is the first episode to air in 2011. It also no longer has the Horrid Henry splat wriggle around on the title card as well as the first episode to be in HD
*Greedy Graham and Weepy William were supposed to show up to the rehearsals and the Old people’s homes from Ralph’s grandads birthday alongside Ralph, Al and Bert but Graham and William didn’t show up because they were presumably highly disappointed that they heard Margaret was the new lead singer of the Zero Zombies.
*Despite Margaret’s failed attempt to spoil the show on Ralph’s grandads birthday by making Henry miss out, she did make some Henry’s friends not want to turn up to the event which was the reason why Graham and William didn’t turn up for the show which Henry couldn’t probably address on time.
== Errors ==
* When Henry was starting to read the letter Ed Banger gave him, before the scene changes, his mouth didn't move.
* When Margaret shouts at Ralph 'Do you think I don't know that?', for a split second Bert's eyes disappear.
*When Margaret warms up and sings very loudly, the microphone disappeared.
*When Henry puts the CD in the boombox during Ralph's grandpa birthday, the cover is blank.
*When Ralph tells Al and Bert it's time to pack up, he was still holding the letter but it was shown in Margaret's schoolbag.
*During the title card, you can hear a piano key playing in C major, even though the title card music is in D major.
