I don't think I've ever seen Robbie do any [ Giggling .]
- All right.
- Ah.
Yes.
- Well played.
- Giggle chin.
Ooh, sunflower seeds.
I guess I'm sharing today.
Hey, why are all those kids paying attention to Robbie? They love the video he posted on The Slap.
- What video did he post on the - Hi! Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with me.
I'm doing this on purpose.
To-do! It's "ta-da".
Ta-da! Why are you tap dancing? Because I'm auditioning for a new musical, and I have to tap dance.
Oh.
Hey, people are talking to Robbie, that's so weird.
Yeah, they're all excited about his video on The Slap.
What is this video? - Show her.
- All right And I can also do it with this fist Uh.
What'd he call the video again? The Hambone King.
Hambone? Did you say The Hambone King? - Yeah, wait 'til you see this.
- What's Hambone mean? Who cares? Look Um Ahem.
That's so fun! Yeah, must take a lotta practice.
Well, what else is Robbie gonna do? I uh I gotta get to Sikowitz's class.
We don't have Sikowitz today.
It's a different Sikowitz! - What's her deal? - Not sure.
Ya know my problem with these sunflower seeds? So, first you're gonna steal my seeds, and now you're gonna criticize? Yes.
It's too much trouble to open 'em.
I'll open 'em! Um, Cat What? Baby Nobody wants to eat sunflower seeds that have been tap danced on the floor.
Ooh! Pre-cracked sunflower seeds.
Don't mind if I do.
This man is nuts.
[ Laughs .]
Here I am once again.
Feeling lost but now and then.
I breathe it in to let it go.
And you don't know where you are now.
And what it will come to if only somebody could hear.
When you figure out how.
You're lost in the moment.
You disappear.
You don't have to be afraid to put your dream in action.
You'll never gonna fade.
You'll be the main attraction.
Not a fantasy.
Just remember me.
When it turns out right.
Because you know that if you live in your imagination.
Tomorrow you'll be everybody's fascination.
In my victory.
Just remember me.
When I make it shine.
Okay, so tell me How do girls put on skirts? Do you do it one leg at a time, like pants? Or do you just jump right in? - One leg at a time.
- I jump right in! Excuse me, Robbie Shapiro.
- Yes? - This is for you.
It's a special Tempura ice cream dessert, just for Robbie.
It's free.
Ooh, can I have one? No.

[ Music .]
[ Music .]
Robbie Come on, man, it's Come on, Rob, it's not so bad Okay, big deal, you lost a Hambone competition.
But it's over.
And it's not like the whole world saw it.
Uh-huh! It's all over the Internet.
How'd it get on the Internet?! I might've uploaded it.
Why do you guys need slippers? - Grab the Cat.
- Yep.
Yay, I'm a kite! Enjoy.
Now you can tap 'til your feet fall off.
[ Doorbell .]
Just open it! - Hey.
- Why are you here? Andre texted me and said Robbie got hurt, so I brought a watermelon.
Why? - Robbie loves watermelons.
- Wa wa.
Okay Somebody turn on the TV.
I'll do it but only because I want to.
What's this about? Just watch.
Oh darn, looks like there's no place for me to sit.
Oh, well.
Aw, that little girl looks just like Tori.
That little girl is Tori.
- Seven years ago.
- For real? No way.
That's gross.
Wow, you're really good.
That's some top-notch Hamboning.
- We were top-notch.
- Who was the little boy? Jarold.
Jarold Ardbeg.
The mean kid who out-Hamboned Robbie tonight! - Oh.
- That pre-turd? His name is Jarold Ardbeg? We were the best boy-girl Hambone team in the Western United States.
We were supposed to compete in the nationals.
Do I have to hear this story again? - Shh.
- Go on.
Jarold was jealous of me because everyone knew that I was better at Hamboning than he was.
It drove him crazy.
He started being really mean to me.
He even wazzed in my Yello Kitty purse.
And then one day I What happened? I I I caught him hamming with Suzy MacAllan.
- Oh.
- All right All right, wait a second here.
If you're better than Jarold Then let's challenge him to a Hambone-off.
You can avenge my defeat! - You don't have to.
- Yeah, it's perfect.
Oh, no No, no, I can't.
I haven't Hamboned in years, but Jarold has never stopped.
It's his whole life! I could never beat him now.
Then train me.
Train me to Hambone better than Jarold Ardbeg.
How bad do you want this? Like, on a scale of one to ten? Maybe eight? Eight-and-a-half? - Then I'll do it.
- Oh, oh! Yea! [ Music .]
Okay Robbie.
Your rhythm's a little loose.
So we gotta tighten that up.
Gotta tighten your rhythm.
- Okay.
- Now You and I are gonna do the Hambone routine I taught you yesterday, but We're gonna do it to the rhythm of Cat's tap dancing.
Five six seven eight! Good! Good! Let's keep it going! Nice! Why'd you stop? I I need to get some air.
- There's air in here.
- I don't want your air! What's wrong with my air? What's the matter with you? Nothing.
What's the matter with you? I'm afraid! Alright, you wanna hear me say it?! You wanna break me down?! I'm afraid I'm gonna lose to Jarold again and humiliate myself.
You can beat him if you want it bad enough.
Who are we kidding?! He's the best Hamboner in the country! What am I? What do you wanna be? A coward? Or do you wanna be The Hambone King again? I never was The Hambone King! Don't you get it?! I was a fake! A joke! I'm not even worthy of eating ham from a bone! Huh? Forget it.
What's the point of this? What's the point of anything? I mean, this whole conversation, it just sounds like bad writing.
So you wanna quit?! You wanna just walk away from a challenge because you're too scared and nerdy? - Nerdy? - I'm sorry, that just slipped out.
You have to try.
You have to do your best.
And then if you lose at least, you'll know that you gave Hamboning everything you've got.
If I do try my best Do you think I have a shot at out-Hamboning Jarold Ardbeg? I think you can be anything you wanna be.
- Even your boyfriend? - Oh God no.
So? Let's Hambone.
[ Music .]
Now, switch! Nice.
Use those wrists.
Yes! Oh.
Slap it like you mean it! Yes.
