123 - How to Rock Cee Lo Part 1
You ready? - Someone could get hurt here.
- I know.
Let's just do this.
- Oh, you like that? - What? - That's how we do it.
- Bring it in.
- Whoop! Whoop! Whoop! Here we go! - That's right! Ca-caw! Nailed it! Woo! - Fantastic.
Oh, yeah.
- Who exactly was gonna get hurt? You didn't see our rehearsals.
Okay, what is with the handshake? We have Battle of the Bands coming up.
If we're gonna win, we need the best handshake ever.
It's not battle of the handshakes it's Battle of the Bands.
And, guys, we have got to win that thing.
Yeah, the winner gets huge bragging rights and gets to play The Prom.
Come on, guys.
Look at the size of that trophy.
Wouldn't you love to take it home? Well, technically, you don't get to take it home.
It stays in the trophy case.
Well, we get our names engraved on it, and that's forever.
- Forever! It's amazing! - I know.
It's so exciting.
Even if we don't win, we're putting our name on that.
Guys, guys, I can't hear the radio.
They're giving out the Cee Lo tickets any minute now.
And if I don't get to see Cee Lo live, everything in my life will be empty and meaningless.
Hey! Except you guys.
Aw.
Now zip it so I can win these tickets.
I've been listening to the radio for 12 hours already.
Yeah, here's an idea.
Why don't you just buy the tickets? Oh! Thank you, Nelson.
Here's what I'll do.
I'll get into my rocket ship, orbit the Earth at the speed of light.
So that I can go back in time to six months ago when the tickets were available.
And purchase the tickets with money I don't have.
Then where'd you get the money for the rocket? The obvious question.
I think Kacey may be sarcastically telling us these tickets are sold out.
Ding ding ding ding ding! You can't get the tickets for the Cee Lo concert.
Nobody can get the tickets for the Cee Lo concert.
And I mean nobody.
Hey, Kacey.
Wow.
It is so hot out here.
Grace, would you please fan me with our tickets to the Cee Lo concert? Fanning! - How's my speed? - It's nice.
Yes! How did you guys get tickets for the Cee Lo concert? I'm sorry.
Did you ask how I got front row tickets to the Cee Lo concert? Front row? Did you say "front row, center"? Because that's what these are.
I guess it pays to know people.
- Like her dad! - Yes, Grace, I know my dad.
It's gonna be the show of the year, and we will be watching from the front row.
Center! I bet her dad has a rocket that goes back in time.
Perfs get everything.
Don't worry, Kacey.
I'm sure you'll be able to go online and find half a song that someone recorded on their phone.
I'll do it, Kacey! But I have to warn you I'll probably be jumping up and down and screaming "Cee Lo!" Well, I hope that you enjoy your little concert.
Because that is gonna be the last good time you have, before we destroy you in Battle of the Bands.
Mm! Oh, Kacey, you have such an optimistic spirit.
Delusional but so optimistic.
You know The Perfs are taking home that trophy.
You underestimate the power of our preshow handshake.
Mine was a real yawn.
Was yours? Oh, not at first, but then it became a mini one.
- Love those! - Oh, totes pref.
Ca-caw! Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
Where'd they go? Don't let The Perfs get to you.
They didn't.
I don't need to see Cee Lo.
I just need to crush them at Battle of the Bands.
And I need to see Cee Lo.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
You always want to be what you're not.
Can't you be happy with what you've got? You're perfect the way you are.
With your insecurities, flaws, and scars.
Your life's too short to worry.
Don't you know it's true.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
I can be me.
Kids! Kids! There's chunks of gold in the dumpster behind the cafeteria.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Sit back down.
I'm just messing with you.
Oh, come on.
But that is exactly how The California Gold Rush started in 1849.
Wow.
I am a great teacher.
All right, let's back it up - It's go time.
- Seriously? The DJ just said, "call in now for the chance to win Cee Lo tickets.
" That's what a carpenter builds, but he wasn't building that.
He was working in the river, doing some carpentry Guys, guys, I got through.
Hi.
Yes, yes, I'm ready.
Why am I whispering? Uh, because I always whisper when I'm excited.
Yay! Guys, it's '80s band music trivia.
Oh, that was a hundred years ago! What band did the song don't stop believin'? - Oh, wow.
- That's so obscure.
Then 300,000 people came out.
That's a lot, all right? Yes, Nelson? Uh, Mr.
March, um, when the first prospectors were mining for gold, and they were having trouble, they were probably like, "well, don't stop believin'," right? Like that song by that '80s band - Journey? - Right, Journey, thanks.
I'm sure they were.
Journey? - Yes! - We're gonna win! So here's the deal.
When I give you guys Who did the song fight for your right? - Oh, I don't know.
- I have no idea.
What's going on back there? Uh, Mr.
March, did the prospectors ever, have to fight for their right to party? Okay, what's up? Kacey, are you on your phone in the class? What? Yes, but it's an emergency! Give it to me.
Give it to me! Who's this? Really? Yeah? The Beastie Boys? Are you serious? I just won tickets to see Cee Lo! Because it's lunch time and because we are awesomely talented This.

Thank you so much.
And remember, that is just a taste of how we're gonna blow your minds, at Battle of the Bands.
Molly? You know how you always said that one day I could sing a solo? What I said was, "you can sing a solo when pigs fly.
" I'm pretty sure that's happened by now, you know, with, um, today's Technology? Grace, I'm the one who sings lead.
Let's stick with what works, okay? Good.
This is gonna be unpopular.
But I gotta say it.
The Perfs put on a good show.
Well, I, for one, do not want to go to a prom where The Perfs are performing.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
That's not gonna happen, okay? Our awesome song and undeniable chemistry, is all we'll need to win Battle of the Bands.
See you guys at the Cee Lo concert tonight! Oh, wait.
I forgot.
You don't have tickets.
Now I feel bad that I even brought it up, that you don't have Cee Lo tickets.
Oh, Molly.
I know what'll cheer you up.
- Hmm? - The Cee Lo concert! I feel better already! Perf power! Cee Lo edition.
I did not see that coming! Guys, listen to me and listen good.
We are getting into that concert tonight.
Now, the only question is Who wants hot wings? The only question is, "how?" Uh, can there be two questions? - No! - Right, right.
We look good, right? I mean, we look mature.
Check out the adults, yo.
And with these professional looking backstage passes, we will breeze past security.
Wow.
These look great, Nelson.
- Amazing.
- Thank you.
All it took was 11 hours of intense research and exquisite craftsmanship.
All right, guys.
It's game time.
Let's do this.
No.
What? This makes me look mature and sophisticated.
It makes you look 11.
What about Now? You look like a snooty cowboy.
You know I do.
Kevin, this is important.
We can't do anything stupid.
All right.
Here we go.
All right, everybody act cool.
We got this.
- 'Sup, girl? How's it going? - Hey, you know, just another concert.
- We've been to so many.
- Uh-huh.
Let me see your passes.
Yeah, you'll notice that they each have a different bar code.
And see that on the back? That is a real hologram.
Here, look at it in the light.
Okay, calm down.
I think the man knows how to look at a pass.
A real pass.
I mean, who'd go through all the trouble to make a fake pass? That'd take 11 hours.
- Where did you get these? - Is that Philip over there? - Yeah! It is Philip! - We should go say hi to Philip.
- Way to act cool, Nelson.
- Well, you're the one who saw Philip! We were almost in! Dang it.
Well, what do you know? Well, hello plan "B".
'Sup? Well, it's off to work at the concession stand.
Why else would we be carrying these huge jugs of mayonnaise, right? - Wait a second.
Aren't you - Run! Nice work, Nelson! - Hey, we got in, didn't we? - He's gaining on us! - Hey, get back here! - What are we gonna do? Let him have it! - Go, go, go! - What's going on here? Whoa! - Run! - Go! - Hey! Come back here! - Why would we do that? Coming, Cee Lo! Guys! This way! This way! This way! Oh, good, you're here.
I need 200 sandwiches.
Oh! I see why you would make such a request of us.
Totally understandable.
Well, um, Sir, we're not really sandwich-makers.
- Not my thing - They may have gone in here! So what kind of sandwiches are we making, boss? Turkey club.
I'll get the turkey, you get the club.
What's club? A club is turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, bacon, bacon, and bacon! Isn't that too much bacon? I don't think it's enough bacon.
Oh, great.
We're out of mayo.
That is ironic.
Guys, we have to finish this.
Cee Lo comes on in ten minutes! We're done.
My fingers are locked in the toothpick position.
And I fear it's not a good look for me.
That's, uh, 200 sandwiches, right? Yes, Sir.
Well, one hundred and eighty five.
Kevin! Being chased by a security guard makes me hungry.
Run! For you! Uh, Grace? I'm not so sure your Cee Lo T-shirt and Cee Lo scarf.
Go with your Cee Lo windbreaker and Cee Lo visor.
Um Do my Cee Lo shades pull it all together? Most def! You know what I love? Groups where one person is the main singer, but that person lets other people in the group sing lead sometimes.
Sorry, Grace.
You're not singing lead.
Whoa! Ha-ha! Me sing lead? What? Where'd you get that from? That's crazy.
Okay.
Good.
Please let me sing, Molly! Grace, the Battle of the Bands is our best chance, to permanently knock Kacey out of the spotlight.
That's why we have to have our best singer singing lead.
And our second-best singer singing backup, smiling, and clapping, okay? Okay.
I'm framing these.
Is this fantastic or what? How about a little sugar for the magic man? Excuse me, magic man.
I do not want front row seats to this.
Well, then look away, because this train is not stopping.
Ah! Little sugar.
And a sprinkle.
There's got to be a way into the arena from here.
Uh, guys, guys, guys! We're just taking off our disguises.
- Right! - Come on! Whoa! - There you are! - Run! You owe me 15 sandwiches! And you gave me toothpick hands.
Run! What are you doing? You know what's so great about these seats? We're closer to the stage than Gravity 5 will ever be.
Uh-oh! - What do we do? - Going up! - In your face! - I ate 16 sandwiches, sucker! Let's get out of here! It's Cee Lo! It's Cee Lo! It's Cee Lo! - Cee Lo! - Cee Lo! We love you, Cee Lo! Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Cee Lo! Kacey Simon is Cee Lo? No wonder she's always late for class! - What do we do? - I vote panic.
Well, I peed myself, so I'm good.
Guys, there's 10,000 people staring at us.
I know.
This is the chance of a lifetime.
Are you saying Let's show these people we know how to rock! Let's do it! Hey, everyone! I'm Kacey Simon, and we are Gravity 5! Woo! I bought a new pair of shoes.
I got a new attitude when I walk.
Because I'm so over you.
And it's all about tonight.
I'm going out with the girls.
Ready to show I know them! They're in my class! I know them too! This cannot be happening.
This is happening! Yeah, the night is alive, you can feel the heartbeat.
Let's just go with the flow, we've been working all week.
Tomorrow doesn't matter when you're moving your feet.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, we'll be dancing and singing, and climbing up on the tables.
We'll be rockin' this party so tell the DJ don't stop.
Grab someone if you're single, grab someone if you're not.
Because it's all about tonight.
No, boy, I'm not hangin' on.
Because I threw all your drama away.
Had something good, but it's gone.
And, yeah, it's all about tonight.
They've got the music so loud.
So I can't hear the phone if you call.
And we're so over now.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, the night is alive, you can feel the heartbeat.
Let's just go with the flow, we've been working all week.
Tomorrow doesn't matter when you're moving your feet.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, we'll be dancing and singing They're pretty good.
I mean, if I had my chair, I'd turn around for 'em.
Grab someone if you're single, grab someone if you're not.
Because it's all about tonight.
Tonight.
Is all that really matters.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, the night is alive, you can feel the heartbeat.
Let's just go with the flow, we've been working all week.
Tomorrow doesn't matter when you're moving your feet.

We'll be rockin' this party so tell the DJ don't stop.
Grab someone if you're single, grab someone if you're not.
Because it's all about tonight! Um, thank you! You guys have been great! We're Gravity 5! Good night! Wait! Can't we just stay up here while Cee Lo sings? You know, that's a reasonable request.
Oh, wait! You covered me in mayonnaise! That wasn't us! Okay, it was us.
Cee Lo! - Oh, hey, Cee Lo! - Hey, Cee Lo! Good luck following that.
Do you know how much trouble you're in? Huh? Do you know how much Trouble you are in? Yes, we do know, Sir.
Are you mocking me? Are you mocking a licensed security officer? I've got handcuffs, people.
Oh, am I amusing to you? Am I a clown? No, Sir.
I just don't believe I've ever seen someone with quite that much mayonnaise on them.
Yeah, can we get you a napkin? - Or a shower? - Or a club sandwich? Enough! Let me tell you kids how this is gonna go down, mm-kay? First, we're gonna call your parents.
Then we're gonna call the police.
And then, after 25, 30 years of Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
These kids are cool.
- They are? - We are? Yeah.
Cee Lo saw you guys perform.
He said he wants you to come to his dressing room and talk to you.
- No way! - Cee Lo.
- Wants to talk? - To us? Be strong, bladder.
Be strong.
Come on.
So, uh, we're gonna be with Cee Lo Officer mayo.
What you looking at? I cannot believe that Cee Lo wanted to see us.
Look at us.
We're in Cee Lo's dressing room.
This is Cee Lo's stuff! Cee Lo drank out of this cup! Cee Lo sat on this couch.
Cee Lo sniffed these flowers! Cee Lo used this toothbrush! Wait, put that back.
Wait, don't put that back.
So what do you guys think that Cee Lo wants to talk to us about? I mean, maybe he wants us to tour with him.
- As his opening act? - Or maybe to be his band! This could be a hundred times bigger than winning the Battle of the Bands.
I know it seems crazy, but maybe it's true! I mean, we are pretty awesome.
Can you imagine? This could change our lives.
What's up, baby? So many girls.
I love girls.
I found this in your change purse, Sir.
Thank you, March.
Just put it in the safe.
Yes, your Excellency.
Oh.
Napkin, Sir? Oh.
Thank you, March.
- No, thank you, my Lord.
- Mm-hmm.
Let it rain, Sir.
Yeah, that's right.
Now, that is more like it.
Hey! No, I love you more! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! A crowd full of Grace's? Money napkin? Ah! You're Cee Lo.
Yeah.
That's true.
Right, I guess you knew that because you are Cee Lo.
Look, frankly, when you guys jacked my elevator, and took over my stage, I was peeved, man.
But what you did out there, it was beautiful.
Oh, Cee Lo, don't embarrass us, please.
I used your toothbrush.
So, I want to talk to you guys about something, and, uh, it's a little crazy, but Wait a minute, did you just say you used my toothbrush? No, I did not, Cee Lo.
So! Cee Lo, what did you want to talk to us about again? Anything tour-related? Pfft, tour related.
That's crazy.
That's so crazy.
Tell me that's crazy.
Actually, it's not crazy.
What? Na, man.
I mean, I know talent when I see it, and I want you on my tour.
Guys, guys, guys, guys.
I don't think Cee Lo was pointing at all of us.
Listen, Cee Lo was definitely not pointing at all of you.
And I would know because I'm Cee Lo.
I love you guys, you guys are a great band.
But I just need her.
Okay, guys.
Kacey's either gonna go on tour with Cee Lo or stay with us.
But whatever she decides, we've got to be okay with it.
Look, I got it covered.
This cake says, "we knew you would never leave us," and this cake says, "we can't believe you're leaving us.
" Doesn't sound like you're all that cool with it.
Oh, naw! I'm cool.
It's not like there was any special bond between me and Kacey.
We were so close! I'm cool.
I'm cool.
I'm cool.
Guys, this is an amazing opportunity for Kacey.
There's no way she can pass it up.
It's true.
The timing's not great.
I mean, we have the Battle of the Bands coming up.
Is she really gonna leave us without a singer? I mean, if I had the chance to do what Kacey's doing.
- I would take it in a heartbeat.
- You'd leave the band? Seriously? After all we've been through? - Well, yeah, if the right opportunity - I can't believe you'd do that to us! Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Nelson, calm down.
You're just spinning out here, Zander would never get an opportunity like that.
- Oh, you're right.
- And why wouldn't I? Look, you can sing, but you don't look like Kacey.
Okay, all right, okay Hey, guys.
Um, I've been giving this a lot of thought, and I've talked it over with my parents Kacey.
We just want you to know that whatever you decide, we support you 100%.
Well, I'm glad that you said that because - I'm going on tour with Cee Lo.
- How could you do this to me? Kevin! You know how hard of a decision this has been for me! And I love you guys, but This is just too big of an opportunity to pass up.
I get it.
I get it.
We knew you'd never leave us? Yeah, right! You punched the wrong cake.
Yep.
Now you got it.
Guys, look.
I appreciate everything that you've done for me.
And I'm sorry for leaving you the day before Battle of the Bands Look, Kacey, just don't even worry about that part.
Singers are replaceable, but Friends aren't.
Well, guys, uh Cee Lo's people want me to be there at noon, so What you doing, man? I'm really gonna miss you, Kacey.
Wait.
Ah, never mind.
Come here.
I'm gonna miss you too, Kevin.
Make us proud, Kacey.
Make me proud.
I know you guys are gonna win Battle of the Bands.
- Yeah, we're gonna do great! - We're gonna kill 'em.
- Yeah! - You go, you - Kacey! - It's you, baby, all you! - We're doomed.
- Kacey! Come back! Come back, baby! Bumblebee.
Zebra.
I don't know.
Zanzibar? Hey! Hey, everyone.
I'm Kacey.
Oh, the new girl has bothered to show up! I guess we can begin.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I thought I was on time.
On time is late.
Ten minutes early is late.
- What's on time? - Yesterday is on time.
- Now stretch.
- All right.
Oh! Um, any particular stretch? - One that doesn't involve your mouth? - Got it.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
Who's next? You always wanna be what you're not.
Can't you be happy with what you've got.
Only you can be you! Only I can be me! Only you can be you! Only can be me! You can start any time, Craig.
He's probably the best so far.
You're perfect the way you are.
With your insecurities, flaws, and scars.
Life's too short to worry.
Don't you know it's true.
Only you can be you.
And I can be me.
Grace? I know how upset you are that you don't get to sing at Battle of the Bands, so I decided to do something that I think will make you pretty happy.
- I get a song? - Even better.
Tambourine! Yay! Great.
So while you're up there singing, I just get to stand there and hit this thing? Yes! But not too often.
You want to keep it special.
Yeah, that's right! But not so violent.
We're getting there.
Take five! So, uh Should we go in a circle and introduce ourselves? All right.
Well, I'm Kacey.
I'm a Gemini.
Uh, my favorite's color is fuchsia, but I also love orange too.
And I'm really psyched to be here.
How about you? I'm Lena, and I don't want to hear anything about you, so stop talking to me.
All right, Lena! Good share.
Good share.
I like that.
Woo! Okay.
So, uh, how about you? I'm Erica.
And I'm gonna stop there.
All righty, then.
I'll, uh I'll be over here.
Holdin' it down by myself.
Let's face it.
We're not gonna find anyone half as good as Kacey.
I believe I was the one who said we were doomed.
And I believe I was correct.
Hello? Grace? What are you doing here? I was just wondering if you guys are still holding tryouts.
But you're a Perf.
You're our competition.
Not anymore.
I've decided that there's got to be more to life than just banging on a tambourine and staring at the back of Molly's big, dumb head! Well, I'm sorry, but the tryouts are over.
Wait, hold on, now.
The job is still open.
Well, she can't be any worse than what we've already seen.
I could be.
Why don't we give her a shot? Hey, you, what's the matter - She's hired! - She barely sang.
She's hired.
That was a great rehearsal, right? So, uh, what should we do now? You gals wanna go and get some pizza? - I don't.
- Are you sure? Because my mom is outside And she has a minivan.
This is a job.
We don't hang out.
Okay.
I get it.
Chick trying to handle her business.
See you tomorrow! I respect you! Shut up, Kacey.
- Oh, hey, Kacey.
- Uh, hi! Hey! Hello! Ah.
Why am I freaking out? - Yeah, why? - This is normal.
Of course.
Just talk to me like a normal person.
But keep in mind that I am Cee Lo.
- I'm gonna work on that.
- How's it going? Oh.
Everything is going great.
I mean, I think I'm finally getting the moves now.
And then, the girls, they They hate me, but that's less great, but that's okay, because it's all good.
I mean, great! That doesn't sound so great.
- It isn't.
- Come on, talk to me.
Well, I knew that all of this was going to be a lot of hard work, and I am not afraid of hard work, but I'm just used to doing that with my friends.
Yeah, you know, going on the road can be awesome.
I mean, performing to sold-out arenas, screaming fans, free stuff.
You know, like, this jogging suit was free.
This watch? Free.
These teeth? Not free, but I've got a great dental plan.
I'm sorry.
Where are we going here? Right.
I guess I'm just trying to say that being on the road can be lonely.
Yeah.
I'm learning that part.
Let me tell you something that my grandmother used to tell me when I was around your age.
She said "Baby, when you're young, you get roots and wings.
" "Now, the roots are to remind you of where home is," "and the wings are so you can fly away.
" "But the hard part is knowing when to fly away.
" Wow, I totally get that.
Your grandma's pretty smart.
And she knits vests for squirrels.
Thank you, Cee Lo.
Hey, that's the first time you said my name without freaking out.
See? I said Cee Lo's name without freaking out! I mean, yeah.
Hey now, hey now.
Everybody wanna be popular.
Hey now, hey now.
Everybody wanna be hot, ya know.
Hey now, hey now.
Everybody wanna be popular.
Hey now, hey now.
Everybody wanna be hot, ya know.
- Are we ready to do this? - Hey, guys.
- Kacey.
- What are you doing here? Well, I know I have wings to fly, but right now, I just need to focus on my roots.
You do! You do need to focus on your roots! What does that mean? It means that touring with Cee Lo sounded great but, I just wasn't ready to leave you guys.
- So you're back.
- I'm back.
Yeah, baby! Welcome back, Kacey.
Grace, wait.
You won the audition.
He's right.
We're gonna win the Battle of the Bands with you.
- You are? But - No, no, no.
They're right.
Fair is fair.
So, you guys, get out there, and hold it down.
Yes, Grace! Hey now, hey now.
Everybody wanna be hot, ya know.
That's The Perfs, everybody, keep it going.
All right, coming up next, The Perfs' biggest competition.
At least, they were, until they lost Kacey Simon.
Gravity 5! Hi! I'm Grace King, and we are Wait.
This isn't right.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the real singer of Gravity 5 Kacey Simon! Are you sure? Yeah.

- Excuse me.
Somebody sing.
Big fan.
Love that tat.
You know, when I was introduced at my show, you guys just came and took my stage.
So It's only fair that on our stage You guessed it.
Let's do it! I remember when.
I remember, I remember when I lost my mind.
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo in so much space.
Mm, mm-mm-mm-mm.
And when you're out there, without a care, yeah, I was out of touch.
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough.
Yeah.
I just knew too much.
I gave her that tambourine! Does that make me crazy? Does that make me crazy? Does that make me crazy? Possibly.
And I hope that you are having, the time of your life.
But think twice.
That's my only advice.
Mm, mm-mm-mm-mm.
Come on, now, who do you.
Who do you, who do you, who do you think you are? Ha-ha-ha, bless your soul.
You really think that you're in control? Well I think you're crazy.
I think you're crazy.
I think you're crazy.
Just like me.
- Oh! - Ooh.
Yeah, yeah.
Ooh, whoa, ooh, who ooh, whoa.
Ooh.
Crazy.
Did you guys hear who won Battle of the Bands? Wait, I'll give you a hint.
They're holding a huge trophy.
It is not cool we got disqualified.
Who knew you could get disqualified for playing with a superstar who's sold millions of records? Well, I did, but I felt awkward bringing it up.
Well, what's better? Getting a trophy or playing with Cee Lo? Cee Lo! - Whatevs.
Come on, Grace.
- I'm sorry.
When you say "Grace," are you talking about Grace of Gravity 6 Grace? Grace, our singer/percussionist Grace? Grace, "the sunshine of our lives who makes it worth getting up every day" Grace? - Somebody say something, quick! - Sure, Nelson, that Grace.
Are you done? I'll come back to The Perfs under one condition.
- You let me sing.
- Are you negotiating with me? No, I'm telling you how it's gonna be.
- Ooh! Cha-ching! - She dropped it down! Fine.
You can sing.
Yay! Welcome back, Grace.
We won a trophy! And there goes my sunshine.
I got you, buddy.
I got you.
- I know.
Let's just do this.
- Oh, you like that? - What? - That's how we do it.
- Bring it in.
- Whoop! Whoop! Whoop! Here we go! - That's right! Ca-caw! Nailed it! Woo! - Fantastic.
Oh, yeah.
- Who exactly was gonna get hurt? You didn't see our rehearsals.
Okay, what is with the handshake? We have Battle of the Bands coming up.
If we're gonna win, we need the best handshake ever.
It's not battle of the handshakes it's Battle of the Bands.
And, guys, we have got to win that thing.
Yeah, the winner gets huge bragging rights and gets to play The Prom.
Come on, guys.
Look at the size of that trophy.
Wouldn't you love to take it home? Well, technically, you don't get to take it home.
It stays in the trophy case.
Well, we get our names engraved on it, and that's forever.
- Forever! It's amazing! - I know.
It's so exciting.
Even if we don't win, we're putting our name on that.
Guys, guys, I can't hear the radio.
They're giving out the Cee Lo tickets any minute now.
And if I don't get to see Cee Lo live, everything in my life will be empty and meaningless.
Hey! Except you guys.
Aw.
Now zip it so I can win these tickets.
I've been listening to the radio for 12 hours already.
Yeah, here's an idea.
Why don't you just buy the tickets? Oh! Thank you, Nelson.
Here's what I'll do.
I'll get into my rocket ship, orbit the Earth at the speed of light.
So that I can go back in time to six months ago when the tickets were available.
And purchase the tickets with money I don't have.
Then where'd you get the money for the rocket? The obvious question.
I think Kacey may be sarcastically telling us these tickets are sold out.
Ding ding ding ding ding! You can't get the tickets for the Cee Lo concert.
Nobody can get the tickets for the Cee Lo concert.
And I mean nobody.
Hey, Kacey.
Wow.
It is so hot out here.
Grace, would you please fan me with our tickets to the Cee Lo concert? Fanning! - How's my speed? - It's nice.
Yes! How did you guys get tickets for the Cee Lo concert? I'm sorry.
Did you ask how I got front row tickets to the Cee Lo concert? Front row? Did you say "front row, center"? Because that's what these are.
I guess it pays to know people.
- Like her dad! - Yes, Grace, I know my dad.
It's gonna be the show of the year, and we will be watching from the front row.
Center! I bet her dad has a rocket that goes back in time.
Perfs get everything.
Don't worry, Kacey.
I'm sure you'll be able to go online and find half a song that someone recorded on their phone.
I'll do it, Kacey! But I have to warn you I'll probably be jumping up and down and screaming "Cee Lo!" Well, I hope that you enjoy your little concert.
Because that is gonna be the last good time you have, before we destroy you in Battle of the Bands.
Mm! Oh, Kacey, you have such an optimistic spirit.
Delusional but so optimistic.
You know The Perfs are taking home that trophy.
You underestimate the power of our preshow handshake.
Mine was a real yawn.
Was yours? Oh, not at first, but then it became a mini one.
- Love those! - Oh, totes pref.
Ca-caw! Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
Where'd they go? Don't let The Perfs get to you.
They didn't.
I don't need to see Cee Lo.
I just need to crush them at Battle of the Bands.
And I need to see Cee Lo.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
You always want to be what you're not.
Can't you be happy with what you've got? You're perfect the way you are.
With your insecurities, flaws, and scars.
Your life's too short to worry.
Don't you know it's true.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
I can be me.
Kids! Kids! There's chunks of gold in the dumpster behind the cafeteria.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Sit back down.
I'm just messing with you.
Oh, come on.
But that is exactly how The California Gold Rush started in 1849.
Wow.
I am a great teacher.
All right, let's back it up - It's go time.
- Seriously? The DJ just said, "call in now for the chance to win Cee Lo tickets.
" That's what a carpenter builds, but he wasn't building that.
He was working in the river, doing some carpentry Guys, guys, I got through.
Hi.
Yes, yes, I'm ready.
Why am I whispering? Uh, because I always whisper when I'm excited.
Yay! Guys, it's '80s band music trivia.
Oh, that was a hundred years ago! What band did the song don't stop believin'? - Oh, wow.
- That's so obscure.
Then 300,000 people came out.
That's a lot, all right? Yes, Nelson? Uh, Mr.
March, um, when the first prospectors were mining for gold, and they were having trouble, they were probably like, "well, don't stop believin'," right? Like that song by that '80s band - Journey? - Right, Journey, thanks.
I'm sure they were.
Journey? - Yes! - We're gonna win! So here's the deal.
When I give you guys Who did the song fight for your right? - Oh, I don't know.
- I have no idea.
What's going on back there? Uh, Mr.
March, did the prospectors ever, have to fight for their right to party? Okay, what's up? Kacey, are you on your phone in the class? What? Yes, but it's an emergency! Give it to me.
Give it to me! Who's this? Really? Yeah? The Beastie Boys? Are you serious? I just won tickets to see Cee Lo! Because it's lunch time and because we are awesomely talented This.

And remember, that is just a taste of how we're gonna blow your minds, at Battle of the Bands.
Molly? You know how you always said that one day I could sing a solo? What I said was, "you can sing a solo when pigs fly.
" I'm pretty sure that's happened by now, you know, with, um, today's Technology? Grace, I'm the one who sings lead.
Let's stick with what works, okay? Good.
This is gonna be unpopular.
But I gotta say it.
The Perfs put on a good show.
Well, I, for one, do not want to go to a prom where The Perfs are performing.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
That's not gonna happen, okay? Our awesome song and undeniable chemistry, is all we'll need to win Battle of the Bands.
See you guys at the Cee Lo concert tonight! Oh, wait.
I forgot.
You don't have tickets.
Now I feel bad that I even brought it up, that you don't have Cee Lo tickets.
Oh, Molly.
I know what'll cheer you up.
- Hmm? - The Cee Lo concert! I feel better already! Perf power! Cee Lo edition.
I did not see that coming! Guys, listen to me and listen good.
We are getting into that concert tonight.
Now, the only question is Who wants hot wings? The only question is, "how?" Uh, can there be two questions? - No! - Right, right.
We look good, right? I mean, we look mature.
Check out the adults, yo.
And with these professional looking backstage passes, we will breeze past security.
Wow.
These look great, Nelson.
- Amazing.
- Thank you.
All it took was 11 hours of intense research and exquisite craftsmanship.
All right, guys.
It's game time.
Let's do this.
No.
What? This makes me look mature and sophisticated.
It makes you look 11.
What about Now? You look like a snooty cowboy.
You know I do.
Kevin, this is important.
We can't do anything stupid.
All right.
Here we go.
All right, everybody act cool.
We got this.
- 'Sup, girl? How's it going? - Hey, you know, just another concert.
- We've been to so many.
- Uh-huh.
Let me see your passes.
Yeah, you'll notice that they each have a different bar code.
And see that on the back? That is a real hologram.
Here, look at it in the light.
Okay, calm down.
I think the man knows how to look at a pass.
A real pass.
I mean, who'd go through all the trouble to make a fake pass? That'd take 11 hours.
- Where did you get these? - Is that Philip over there? - Yeah! It is Philip! - We should go say hi to Philip.
- Way to act cool, Nelson.
- Well, you're the one who saw Philip! We were almost in! Dang it.
Well, what do you know? Well, hello plan "B".
'Sup? Well, it's off to work at the concession stand.
Why else would we be carrying these huge jugs of mayonnaise, right? - Wait a second.
Aren't you - Run! Nice work, Nelson! - Hey, we got in, didn't we? - He's gaining on us! - Hey, get back here! - What are we gonna do? Let him have it! - Go, go, go! - What's going on here? Whoa! - Run! - Go! - Hey! Come back here! - Why would we do that? Coming, Cee Lo! Guys! This way! This way! This way! Oh, good, you're here.
I need 200 sandwiches.
Oh! I see why you would make such a request of us.
Totally understandable.
Well, um, Sir, we're not really sandwich-makers.
- Not my thing - They may have gone in here! So what kind of sandwiches are we making, boss? Turkey club.
I'll get the turkey, you get the club.
What's club? A club is turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, bacon, bacon, and bacon! Isn't that too much bacon? I don't think it's enough bacon.
Oh, great.
We're out of mayo.
That is ironic.
Guys, we have to finish this.
Cee Lo comes on in ten minutes! We're done.
My fingers are locked in the toothpick position.
And I fear it's not a good look for me.
That's, uh, 200 sandwiches, right? Yes, Sir.
Well, one hundred and eighty five.
Kevin! Being chased by a security guard makes me hungry.
Run! For you! Uh, Grace? I'm not so sure your Cee Lo T-shirt and Cee Lo scarf.
Go with your Cee Lo windbreaker and Cee Lo visor.
Um Do my Cee Lo shades pull it all together? Most def! You know what I love? Groups where one person is the main singer, but that person lets other people in the group sing lead sometimes.
Sorry, Grace.
You're not singing lead.
Whoa! Ha-ha! Me sing lead? What? Where'd you get that from? That's crazy.
Okay.
Good.
Please let me sing, Molly! Grace, the Battle of the Bands is our best chance, to permanently knock Kacey out of the spotlight.
That's why we have to have our best singer singing lead.
And our second-best singer singing backup, smiling, and clapping, okay? Okay.
I'm framing these.
Is this fantastic or what? How about a little sugar for the magic man? Excuse me, magic man.
I do not want front row seats to this.
Well, then look away, because this train is not stopping.
Ah! Little sugar.
And a sprinkle.
There's got to be a way into the arena from here.
Uh, guys, guys, guys! We're just taking off our disguises.
- Right! - Come on! Whoa! - There you are! - Run! You owe me 15 sandwiches! And you gave me toothpick hands.
Run! What are you doing? You know what's so great about these seats? We're closer to the stage than Gravity 5 will ever be.
Uh-oh! - What do we do? - Going up! - In your face! - I ate 16 sandwiches, sucker! Let's get out of here! It's Cee Lo! It's Cee Lo! It's Cee Lo! - Cee Lo! - Cee Lo! We love you, Cee Lo! Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Cee Lo! Kacey Simon is Cee Lo? No wonder she's always late for class! - What do we do? - I vote panic.
Well, I peed myself, so I'm good.
Guys, there's 10,000 people staring at us.
I know.
This is the chance of a lifetime.
Are you saying Let's show these people we know how to rock! Let's do it! Hey, everyone! I'm Kacey Simon, and we are Gravity 5! Woo! I bought a new pair of shoes.
I got a new attitude when I walk.
Because I'm so over you.
And it's all about tonight.
I'm going out with the girls.
Ready to show I know them! They're in my class! I know them too! This cannot be happening.
This is happening! Yeah, the night is alive, you can feel the heartbeat.
Let's just go with the flow, we've been working all week.
Tomorrow doesn't matter when you're moving your feet.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, we'll be dancing and singing, and climbing up on the tables.
We'll be rockin' this party so tell the DJ don't stop.
Grab someone if you're single, grab someone if you're not.
Because it's all about tonight.
No, boy, I'm not hangin' on.
Because I threw all your drama away.
Had something good, but it's gone.
And, yeah, it's all about tonight.
They've got the music so loud.
So I can't hear the phone if you call.
And we're so over now.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, the night is alive, you can feel the heartbeat.
Let's just go with the flow, we've been working all week.
Tomorrow doesn't matter when you're moving your feet.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, we'll be dancing and singing They're pretty good.
I mean, if I had my chair, I'd turn around for 'em.
Grab someone if you're single, grab someone if you're not.
Because it's all about tonight.
Tonight.
Is all that really matters.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, the night is alive, you can feel the heartbeat.
Let's just go with the flow, we've been working all week.
Tomorrow doesn't matter when you're moving your feet.
Because it's all about tonight.
Yeah, we'll be dancing and singing, and climbing up on the tables.
We'll be rockin' this party so tell the DJ don't stop.
Grab someone if you're single, grab someone if you're not.
Because it's all about tonight! Um, thank you! You guys have been great! We're Gravity 5! Good night! Wait! Can't we just stay up here while Cee Lo sings? You know, that's a reasonable request.
Oh, wait! You covered me in mayonnaise! That wasn't us! Okay, it was us.
Cee Lo! - Oh, hey, Cee Lo! - Hey, Cee Lo! Good luck following that.
Do you know how much trouble you're in? Huh? Do you know how much Trouble you are in? Yes, we do know, Sir.
Are you mocking me? Are you mocking a licensed security officer? I've got handcuffs, people.
Oh, am I amusing to you? Am I a clown? No, Sir.
I just don't believe I've ever seen someone with quite that much mayonnaise on them.
Yeah, can we get you a napkin? - Or a shower? - Or a club sandwich? Enough! Let me tell you kids how this is gonna go down, mm-kay? First, we're gonna call your parents.
Then we're gonna call the police.
And then, after 25, 30 years of Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
These kids are cool.
- They are? - We are? Yeah.
Cee Lo saw you guys perform.
He said he wants you to come to his dressing room and talk to you.
- No way! - Cee Lo.
- Wants to talk? - To us? Be strong, bladder.
Be strong.
Come on.
So, uh, we're gonna be with Cee Lo Officer mayo.
What you looking at? I cannot believe that Cee Lo wanted to see us.
Look at us.
We're in Cee Lo's dressing room.
This is Cee Lo's stuff! Cee Lo drank out of this cup! Cee Lo sat on this couch.
Cee Lo sniffed these flowers! Cee Lo used this toothbrush! Wait, put that back.
Wait, don't put that back.
So what do you guys think that Cee Lo wants to talk to us about? I mean, maybe he wants us to tour with him.
- As his opening act? - Or maybe to be his band! This could be a hundred times bigger than winning the Battle of the Bands.
I know it seems crazy, but maybe it's true! I mean, we are pretty awesome.
Can you imagine? This could change our lives.
What's up, baby? So many girls.
I love girls.
I found this in your change purse, Sir.
Thank you, March.
Just put it in the safe.
Yes, your Excellency.
Oh.
Napkin, Sir? Oh.
Thank you, March.
- No, thank you, my Lord.
- Mm-hmm.
Let it rain, Sir.
Yeah, that's right.
Now, that is more like it.
Hey! No, I love you more! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! A crowd full of Grace's? Money napkin? Ah! You're Cee Lo.
Yeah.
That's true.
Right, I guess you knew that because you are Cee Lo.
Look, frankly, when you guys jacked my elevator, and took over my stage, I was peeved, man.
But what you did out there, it was beautiful.
Oh, Cee Lo, don't embarrass us, please.
I used your toothbrush.
So, I want to talk to you guys about something, and, uh, it's a little crazy, but Wait a minute, did you just say you used my toothbrush? No, I did not, Cee Lo.
So! Cee Lo, what did you want to talk to us about again? Anything tour-related? Pfft, tour related.
That's crazy.
That's so crazy.
Tell me that's crazy.
Actually, it's not crazy.
What? Na, man.
I mean, I know talent when I see it, and I want you on my tour.
Guys, guys, guys, guys.
I don't think Cee Lo was pointing at all of us.
Listen, Cee Lo was definitely not pointing at all of you.
And I would know because I'm Cee Lo.
I love you guys, you guys are a great band.
But I just need her.
Okay, guys.
Kacey's either gonna go on tour with Cee Lo or stay with us.
But whatever she decides, we've got to be okay with it.
Look, I got it covered.
This cake says, "we knew you would never leave us," and this cake says, "we can't believe you're leaving us.
" Doesn't sound like you're all that cool with it.
Oh, naw! I'm cool.
It's not like there was any special bond between me and Kacey.
We were so close! I'm cool.
I'm cool.
I'm cool.
Guys, this is an amazing opportunity for Kacey.
There's no way she can pass it up.
It's true.
The timing's not great.
I mean, we have the Battle of the Bands coming up.
Is she really gonna leave us without a singer? I mean, if I had the chance to do what Kacey's doing.
- I would take it in a heartbeat.
- You'd leave the band? Seriously? After all we've been through? - Well, yeah, if the right opportunity - I can't believe you'd do that to us! Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Nelson, calm down.
You're just spinning out here, Zander would never get an opportunity like that.
- Oh, you're right.
- And why wouldn't I? Look, you can sing, but you don't look like Kacey.
Okay, all right, okay Hey, guys.
Um, I've been giving this a lot of thought, and I've talked it over with my parents Kacey.
We just want you to know that whatever you decide, we support you 100%.
Well, I'm glad that you said that because - I'm going on tour with Cee Lo.
- How could you do this to me? Kevin! You know how hard of a decision this has been for me! And I love you guys, but This is just too big of an opportunity to pass up.
I get it.
I get it.
We knew you'd never leave us? Yeah, right! You punched the wrong cake.
Yep.
Now you got it.
Guys, look.
I appreciate everything that you've done for me.
And I'm sorry for leaving you the day before Battle of the Bands Look, Kacey, just don't even worry about that part.
Singers are replaceable, but Friends aren't.
Well, guys, uh Cee Lo's people want me to be there at noon, so What you doing, man? I'm really gonna miss you, Kacey.
Wait.
Ah, never mind.
Come here.
I'm gonna miss you too, Kevin.
Make us proud, Kacey.
Make me proud.
I know you guys are gonna win Battle of the Bands.
- Yeah, we're gonna do great! - We're gonna kill 'em.
- Yeah! - You go, you - Kacey! - It's you, baby, all you! - We're doomed.
- Kacey! Come back! Come back, baby! Bumblebee.
Zebra.
I don't know.
Zanzibar? Hey! Hey, everyone.
I'm Kacey.
Oh, the new girl has bothered to show up! I guess we can begin.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I thought I was on time.
On time is late.
Ten minutes early is late.
- What's on time? - Yesterday is on time.
- Now stretch.
- All right.
Oh! Um, any particular stretch? - One that doesn't involve your mouth? - Got it.
Only you can be you.
Only I can be me.
Who's next? You always wanna be what you're not.
Can't you be happy with what you've got.
Only you can be you! Only I can be me! Only you can be you! Only can be me! You can start any time, Craig.
He's probably the best so far.
You're perfect the way you are.
With your insecurities, flaws, and scars.
Life's too short to worry.
Don't you know it's true.
Only you can be you.
And I can be me.
Grace? I know how upset you are that you don't get to sing at Battle of the Bands, so I decided to do something that I think will make you pretty happy.
- I get a song? - Even better.
Tambourine! Yay! Great.
So while you're up there singing, I just get to stand there and hit this thing? Yes! But not too often.
You want to keep it special.
Yeah, that's right! But not so violent.
We're getting there.
Take five! So, uh Should we go in a circle and introduce ourselves? All right.
Well, I'm Kacey.
I'm a Gemini.
Uh, my favorite's color is fuchsia, but I also love orange too.
And I'm really psyched to be here.
How about you? I'm Lena, and I don't want to hear anything about you, so stop talking to me.
All right, Lena! Good share.
Good share.
I like that.
Woo! Okay.
So, uh, how about you? I'm Erica.
And I'm gonna stop there.
All righty, then.
I'll, uh I'll be over here.
Holdin' it down by myself.
Let's face it.
We're not gonna find anyone half as good as Kacey.
I believe I was the one who said we were doomed.
And I believe I was correct.
Hello? Grace? What are you doing here? I was just wondering if you guys are still holding tryouts.
But you're a Perf.
You're our competition.
Not anymore.
I've decided that there's got to be more to life than just banging on a tambourine and staring at the back of Molly's big, dumb head! Well, I'm sorry, but the tryouts are over.
Wait, hold on, now.
The job is still open.
Well, she can't be any worse than what we've already seen.
I could be.
Why don't we give her a shot? Hey, you, what's the matter - She's hired! - She barely sang.
She's hired.
That was a great rehearsal, right? So, uh, what should we do now? You gals wanna go and get some pizza? - I don't.
- Are you sure? Because my mom is outside And she has a minivan.
This is a job.
We don't hang out.
Okay.
I get it.
Chick trying to handle her business.
See you tomorrow! I respect you! Shut up, Kacey.
- Oh, hey, Kacey.
- Uh, hi! Hey! Hello! Ah.
Why am I freaking out? - Yeah, why? - This is normal.
Of course.
Just talk to me like a normal person.
But keep in mind that I am Cee Lo.
- I'm gonna work on that.
- How's it going? Oh.
Everything is going great.
I mean, I think I'm finally getting the moves now.
And then, the girls, they They hate me, but that's less great, but that's okay, because it's all good.
I mean, great! That doesn't sound so great.
- It isn't.
- Come on, talk to me.
Well, I knew that all of this was going to be a lot of hard work, and I am not afraid of hard work, but I'm just used to doing that with my friends.
Yeah, you know, going on the road can be awesome.
I mean, performing to sold-out arenas, screaming fans, free stuff.
You know, like, this jogging suit was free.
This watch? Free.
These teeth? Not free, but I've got a great dental plan.
I'm sorry.
Where are we going here? Right.
I guess I'm just trying to say that being on the road can be lonely.
Yeah.
I'm learning that part.
Let me tell you something that my grandmother used to tell me when I was around your age.
