Come on, team. We got this.

We can win this game if we keep them from scoring.

Let's go, team.

Great catch, Denise.

Great catch.

Oh, no.

He's stealing home.

Safe.

That's okay. We still got this.

Way to go, Molly.

We can do it. I know we can.

I missed the catch.

Michael, you can do it. Throw the ball. Throw it home.

Michael, throw home.

You're safe.

I can't believe I lost us the game.

It's okay, Michael. Don't worry.

Yeah, that was an amazing throw all the way to home plate. But I still lost us

the game. Our very last one of the season.

We had a lot of fun. And we wouldn't even have made it this far without you.

We had a great time playing thanks to you. Yeah, I guess I had fun too.

Until I dropped that catch.

I let everyone down.

I let myself down.

How did I miss that catch?

How did I let that happen?

I lost the game.

That was a rough game.

Poor Michael.

Do you think he's gonna be okay?

He does seem upset.

Perhaps Michael just needs a little space right now.

We're making banana bread with raisins.

I'm helping.

Sorry about your baseball game, Michael.

Maybe you'll feel better after you have a snack.

Here, catch!

I'm sorry.

That was my fault.

I can't catch anything.

sad, Michael.

Here, Moo Moo will make you feel better.

That's not your fault, Michael.

Moo Moo's really slippy.

Look.

Oopsie. I can't even hold her.

Oops.

Oopsie.

Let's just leave Michael alone for a bit.

Okay?

I've come to an important decision.

Oh, good.

I've decided that I'm going to quit baseball.

But, Michael, you love baseball.

It's your favorite game. Your whole life is baseball.

Not anymore.

I'm quitting, and I'm not rejoining the team next season. And I'm never, ever,

never playing ever again. Not ever.

That's not good.

Seriously? Give me a break.

A break?

Is something broken?

Oh, hi, Stillwater.

No, nothing's broken.

I mean, it feels kind of broken, but nothing's actually broken broken.

I was going to ask you to tell me how you're feeling, but perhaps you already

have.

I was just about to go and pick some apples.

Would you like to come along and help?

Sure, as long as you don't ask me to catch any.

I promise.

I've decided to quit baseball.

That is certainly a big decision, especially considering how much you love

baseball.

I know.

It's just after missing that easy catch, I really let my team down.

I can't stop thinking about it.

Let me ask you, Michael.

Let's say a friend of yours had missed that catch instead.

What would you say?

Would you be upset?

Probably not. But that's different. It's me. It was my mistake.

I see.

Michael, I wonder if you might let me tell you a story.

Sure, Stillwater.

I love your stories.

There was once a talented musician named Ella who was the leader of a band.

She led by example.

She played her best.

She loved what she did.

Together, the team of musicians happily followed Ella's direction.

Okay, okay, hold up. Clearly a couple of wrong notes sneaked their way in.

Sorry, boss.

That's all right, Nina.

How can you find the right notes if you don't know where the wrong ones are?

Now, I know maybe we're all a little nervous about our big performance

tonight. But don't be.

We got this.

We just work together and do our best.

That's all I could ever ask of any of you.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

We're going to take a small break. Be back in a few minutes.

Look, I'm so sorry I let you all down tonight.

That note, that was unforgivable.

I'll finish out the set tonight with you, but I'm going to step down as the

leader of this beautiful band.

You'll all be better off without me.

Wait, she quit just because of a couple of bad notes?

Yes, it did seem so.

I can't believe the boss is going to quit like that.

I would have quit so many times myself, but she kept me in it. She made me a

much better musician.

Heck, she made me a much better cat.

Her attitude, her smile, she helped us all.

Yeah, Nina, we've all lost our rhythm.

Made so many mistakes, but she just cheered us on every time, right or

wrong. She was always there for me. That's what I was saying.

I just wish there was some way we could help her now.

You already have helped. I need to apologize to all of you.

I'm not going to quit.

Everyone makes mistakes.

And if I'm not going to be hard on you, I can't be hard on me.

Now, if you all are done resting...

We got a performance to finish.

You know, Stillwater, I think being in a band is a lot like being on a baseball

team.

Hmm, yes.

I hadn't thought of that.

Tell me, Michael.

What is it you like about being on a team?

So many things, really. I like how we're all in it together, as a group.

One person can't do it all on their own.

You get to celebrate all your victories together.

But you have support when you lose, too.

So then when you're on a team, can one person really lose the game?

No. We're in it together.

We came to see how you were doing.

Addie and Carl told us you're going to quit baseball.

I hope we'll change your mind.

We need you.

No, I'm not going to quit.

I was pretty upset about missing that catch, but I'm feeling better now.

I mean, I wouldn't be mad at any of you if you dropped the ball.

Why should I be mad at me?

Oh, thank goodness you're sticking around for next season.

We've just started playing baseball, and we need your help practicing.

Yeah, we can use all the practice we can get.

Me too.

I almost thought I was going to drop it.

Would you have cared?

No, not anymore.

Sometimes you hit a wrong note, and sometimes you drop the ball.

Pass it to me, pass it to me.

Over here, over here.

And sometimes you drop the apple.

Mind if I join the team?

Seems I could use a little practice.

The more the merrier.

You want to come over for a sleepover tonight?

We can pop popcorn and watch a movie.

What'd you say?

What is it?

Um, sorry, Addie, but we can't come over tonight.

Sophia's having a special birthday dinner.

Oh, she is?

It's at a restaurant.

Her parents are only letting her invite two friends.

It's okay. I get it.

Where are you going for dinner?

We're going to this place that has a show with knights on horses.

And we get to eat with our hands.

That sounds fun.

I'm sure you're going to have a great time.

Did anyone order an Addie sandwich?

Have fun tonight.

I can't wait to hear all about it.

It's not time to eat yet, Moo Moo.

Carl, I have finished.

The invitations look great.

Just enough glitter.

Oh, what nice invitations, Goo.

And the table looks lovely, Carl.

Thanks, Stillwater, but we have a problem.

Oh? We can't fill the napkins. We want to make animals. Can you please help us?

Hmm.

Oh, I would be delighted to help.

Addy's home!

Come on, Coo. Let's invite her to the party.

Addy!

Guess what?

You are invited to Moo Moo and Pico's birthday party.

Uh, thanks.

At least I got invited to one birthday party today.

Come on, Addy.

Hello, Addy.

Hi, Stillwater.

Let's all play charades. It is Pico's favorite game.

Who would like to start?

Addy's really good at charades. She should go first.

Okay. Hmm.

Um, a tower.

A pickle.

Our pickle tower.

A tree.

A windmill.

bouncing up and down.

Oh, a kangaroo.

How about a flamingo? Oh.

Someone else's turn.

What's wrong, Addy?

You look sad.

We don't have to play charades anymore if you don't want to.

Addy, would you like to take a little walk and help me pick up a few things

from the kitchen?

This looks like the perfect tray for a party.

Yeah, I guess.

Your body is here, but your mind seems to be elsewhere.

There's this girl in my grade, Sophia. She's having a birthday dinner tonight

at a really cool restaurant.

Maya and Asher got invited, but not me.

I don't even really know Sophia that well, but I still feel sad to miss out.

All I can think about is all them having fun and me here at home.

Of course. That's perfectly understandable.

Your situation reminds me of an old saying.

When one door closes, another one opens.

I've never heard that saying before.

What does it mean?

Hmm.

I think the best way to explain that... Is with the story?

That's right.

The day of the concert had finally arrived, and Maddie and her friends

couldn't wait to get to the show.

I'm so excited to see them play!

As Maddie made her way to the show, she felt the music of the city.

It was up... Stink and exciting.

Man, this line is so long. It's so worth it.

Even though the line was long, Maddie and her friends waited patiently for

their turn to buy tickets. Here you go. But when they reached the front of the

line... I'm sorry, kid. I just sold the last ticket.

I've been waiting all year to see this band.

Please, can you check again?

am sorry.

You'll have to catch them another time.

Sorry, folks. We're all sold out for tonight's show.

Maddie, we don't have to go.

It's okay.

I want you to have a great time.

Take lots of pictures, and I'll catch up with you tomorrow.

As Maddie made her way back home, the music of the city didn't feel as upbeat

and exciting to her anymore.

But although one door closed, another one suddenly opened.

And if you're feeling like nobody's on your side,

Take a deep breath and count to five.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Please don't stop playing because of me.

I was just really enjoying your music.

Thanks. I see you've got drumsticks.

Do you play?

A little.

We've been looking for someone to play drums in our band.

Wanna give it a go?

Really? Totally.

Come on.

A year later, Maddie was back at the same theater. But this time, she had no

trouble getting in.

I'm in the band.

If you feel worried and you want to run and hide Take

a deep breath and count to five

had gone to the concert with her friends that night, she never would have met her

new band.

It's true.

Out of a disheartening situation, a wonderful opportunity arose for Maddie.

One door closed and another opened.

I like that.

Let's get back outside with Sue and Carl. I don't want to miss another

minute of the party.

We've got finger sandwiches and scones.

Here you go, Moo Moo.

It's just pretend, Moo Moo.

And one for you, Pico.

Pico says thank you. He loves sandwiches with cheese.

Have a cookie, Carl.

Thanks, Q.

May I offer you some tea, Addy?

Don't mind if I do.

Thanks.

If I had gone with my friends to the dinner tonight, I wouldn't have been

here to celebrate Mumu and Pika.

Hey, everyone.

Hi, Michael.

Want some pretend birthday cake?

Sure. Thanks, Carl.

Nom, nom, nom.

There's supposed to be a meteor shower tonight. If we get to the top of the

hill... We might be able to see some of it.

How exciting!

Wow. Wonderful.

Wow.

I'm so happy to be here watching this amazing show.

It looks like birthday candles flying across the sky.

This is the party I want to be at.

With our spirits we were floating through the trees.

Like creatures we were soaring high. Blowing off some steam.

Over a mountain and it's ever fast and green.

Never ending dream.
