SHAWN: New York City.

Not a land far far away.

But still one of the most magical cities in the world.

Its streets buzzing with people,

and buildings that seem to go on forever.

It's a kind of place where fairy tales seem to be possible,

- no matter who you are. - Whoa! Coming through! Sorry!

This isn't one of your typical Cinderella story.

There are no pumpkins, no mice, and no Cinderella.

Or at least not the one you're used to.

Meet Charlie.

He was young when he lost his mom.

Leaving him with Art, his stepfather.

And then there's these two. Charlie's stepbrothers.

Who are just a little... how do I say this? Annoying.

Now, Charlie's stuck cleaning the place

his mom once owned.

[record scratch] Wait, wait, wait-wait.

Before we lay our fairy tale play out, you should know,

Charlie has a talent.

A real gift for music.

Yo, come out! Hey!

* I never doubt my dreams, always live 'em out *

* I'mma tell the world, they gotta hear me out *

* Just give me one mic so I can scream it loud *

* And I just need someone that I can make proud *

* 'Cause I can't wait for that someday *

* That someday, it is coming *

* I wanna share my life with someone *

* Who loves me just for me-- hey, hey!*

* I wanna wish up to the stars I can *

* I wanna see the lights and the crowd in the stands *

* See myself there like a dream in the past *

* And everything I want, I'mma get it at last *

* Okay, and I know that there's no limit *

* Pursuin' all our dreams *

* And we gon' make it and tell the world... *

SHAWN: And this is where I come in.

Like I said. This is a fairy tale with a twist.

And I'm no fairy godmother.

But Charlie has a dream.

And all he needs is someone to hear him

and open a door.

[gasps, shouts]

It's just water. Come on, people!

Keep it up, man.

Next time I see you, it better be on an album cover.

Wow, thank you.

Who knows?

Maybe one day, you'll be as famous as she is.

SHAWN: And that's the beauty of this city.

You never know what's gonna happen next.

Just around the corner, there could be something amazing.

Or someone.

[hip hop beat]

* I love you so much *

* I hate you so bad *

* Said I don't miss you, you know that's not true *

* Boy, I want you back *

* I hate you so much *

* But I love you, oh, so bad *

* When I say I'm leavin', I don't mean it *

* I just want you back *

* Got my hopes up, when we broke up *

* That we would get back, always said that *

* No matter what, we would be together *

* I want you back now more than ever *

* Feels like we on the roller coaster *

* You take me up high, then take me down low *

* There go the games, boy, you think you clever *

* You try to play me, it's so whatever *

* Oh, some days we on the same page *

* Oh, then we go our separate ways *

* Oh, and our love's down the drain *

* Oh, then I'm calling you again *

* Oh, some days we on the same page *

* Oh, then we go our separate-- *

Our separate-- Our separate-- Our separate--

[audio skipping] Our separate-- Our separate--

- [confused shouts] - [skipping continues]

- Whoa-whoa, cut, cut! - [audio stops]

What's wrong with playback?

Working on it, boss. I don't know,

this computer had a panic attack or something.

- Unreal. - Just give me a minute.

All right, everyone take ten.

[bell ringing]

- [barking] - Trumpet!

Get that dog off of my couture!

Why can't you have a purse-sized dog,

like all of the other stars, hmm?

This horse dog doesn't fit your image.

Trumpet doesn't care about my image.

He loves the real me, and I love him.

Isn't that right, boy? Isn't that right.

Should I rub your belly? Should I rub our miss' belly?

No one touches my belly.

[car horn honking]

Hey!

Grilled cheese with pickles on rye.

You are the best, Martha.

If it weren't for Diego, I would propose to you right now.

That'd be great, maybe then she'll stop

- bugging me for a bigger ring. - Hah! This guy.

He brings me stuff he finds in the street every day.

Why don't you find me a ring in the street?

- And maybe some customers. - Customers.

That's what we need. Now, if your mom only knew

how Arthur's turned this place into a ghost town.

I should do something about it.

Diego's not gonna have to do anything.

'Cause things are not gonna be like this for much longer.

Really? Well, all right, Charlie.

You got a little plan brewing?

Nope, I got nothing.

I can barely move in this outfit.

Well, you look amazing.

Thanks, girl.

It's the latest design by Gigi le Strange.

What about Gigi le Normal?

Gigi le Clothing Wearable by Humans?

Did we pull any outfits from anyone like that?

- There's my girl. - Daddy!

- Kadee, MTV! - I didn't think you'd make it.

- No hugging, it'll wrinkle! - I think she'd survive

a wrinkle or two. Come here.

That's what I was going to say, go for it.

- You only live once. - The biggest star

of Majesty Records, and I remember when she was

singing in diapers. How's the shoot going?

- You're killing it? - The only thing getting killed

- are my feet. - Mmm.

It's going fine. Can I talk to you, please?

Yeah, hey, guys, why don't you get a shot

of that set that I'm paying so much money for?

- What's up? - Daddy.

Don't you think this all is a little... much?

Like, maybe I should be singing my own stuff.

I don't know if that's the best idea.

- Best idea, jinx! - Sweetie,

I just want you to be protected.

That's why I get you the best songwriters money can buy.

Don't worry. Your new single's gonna be a hit.

- Trust me... ooh! - [phone ringing]

Oh, I got to take this, okay?

We're announcing the talent search today.

[thudding on P.A.]

Kadee, your dog is chewing on the microphone.

[thudding]

Trumpet, that microphone is not a dog bone!

* I follow my dreams... *

* You'd think they were nightmares *

* The way they scream *

* I make them believe... *

* Whoo, someday *

* Someday I'm gonna be *

* The next big thing *

These are different from the ones I liked.

Look, it's MTV.

Kadee, Kadee, after six Number One's,

Kadee!

* Hate these clothes so much *

* Why can't they all see? *

* The more I go through, I don't want to *

* Just want to be me *

* You can follow me if you wanna go *

* I'mma take the lead, I got the star role *

* Twinkle in the night, like the star goes *

* When you see us, you know, hey! *

* Someday, someday I'm gonna be *

* The next big thing *

Who do you think you are?

I don't pay you to waste your time.

Actually, you don't pay me at all.

Are you sassing me, Charlie?

- No, sir. - Good.

My mom used to let me sing

- whatever I-- - Your mom...

not only left me in charge of you,

but also of this dump which I now have to run.

It's time to open. Let's go.

Are you guys open yet?

Uh, not quite, but we-- we have

a special treat for you-- Charlie!

Why don't you introduce the opening act, huh?

Ladies and gentlemen, please give it up

- for Andrew and Lloyd. - Psst! That's Androyd!

See, when you combine Andrew and Lloyd,

you get Androyd.

I hate you so much, Lloyd.

Ouch, harsh much?

[feedback]

[rock instrumental playing]

Yeah!

* Yo, pretty ladies around the world *

* Got a weird thing to show you, so tell all the boys and girls *

* Tell your brother, your sister, and your mama too *

* 'Cause we're 'bout to throw down *

- My boys! - * --just what to do *

* Wave your hands in the air *

* Like you don't care *

* Glide by the people *

* As they start to look and stare *

* Do your dance, do your dance *

* Do your dance, quick! *

* Mama, come on, baby *

* Tell me, what's the word? *

BOTH: * Word up! *

We're submitting a CD

for the Majesty Records' talent search.

The search is over, am I right or am I right?

* Word up! *

* It's the-- *

Ow! I'm hit!

Andrew!

Do you take requests?

[cheering]

- Hi! - Hello!

- Kadee, hi! - How are you?

Let's go, hey, let's meet the fans.

Oh, I love these, oh, you got pens and stuff,

- this is great. - Thank you.

Oh, you wanna do a hug?

Oh, thank you, you're beautiful.

How are you? Can we just get through this?

Remember, we agreed to keep this one short.

But they love us, look at this!

No? All right, fine.

Hurry up then. Let's go. Great.

You look fantastic, you both look amazing.

- Thanks. - Thank you.

Let's do a couple of photos.

Finn, Kadee, over here!

- How about a kiss? - All right.

Get a shot of this one, boys!

- Oh yeah, that's good. - Could you move over a bit?

I just want the light to hit my cheekbones.

Cheers, thanks, love.

[camera snaps]

It's actually clean.

- So am I free to go? - Yes.

Free to go drop off Androyd's demo CD

to Majesty Records for the talent search.

Androyd has a CD?

You jealous, Charlie?

You should be. [chuckling]

Oh, but don't worry, when they're number one,

you can clean the dressing room.

Whoo, that's a relief, for a second there

I thought you were gonna say something really mean.

Don't forget, curfew is midnight!

Can't wait!

[door opening, closing]

[car horn honking]

- Kadee, can you look over here? - Hi, thank you.

PHOTOGRAPHER: You are great.

I think I'm gonna walk home today, Tony.

- Get some fresh air. - Your father won't like this.

He also wouldn't like you using his Knicks tickets

- without him knowing. - Enjoy the park.

- See you. - Come on, Trumpet.

You take care of her.

[barking]

Trumpet!

I love you, too.

Oh, um... come on!

- Ow! - Sorry.

- Here, sorry. - Sorry.

- Sorry. - Oh no.

- [barking] - Trumpet!

Hey, do you mind? That's private.

- [camera snaps] - Kadee! Kadee!

Kadee Worth? You're Kadee Worth,

like, the Kadee Worth Kadee Worth.

Please, can I have that back?

Yeah, sure.

Sorry, I...

I like your dog.

[music]

WOMAN: Majesty Records. Please hold.

[phone ringing]

Majesty Records.

Hey, thought I was supposed to see you

on an album cover, what happened?

Hey, you saw me play in the streets the other day.

- Yeah. - Wait, do you work here?

Yup, studio engineer.

And you want to work here as... a janitor?

Ever since I was a little boy,

I've just wanted to scrub toilets.

I can see how that beats playing music.

- You ever play? - Oh, yeah.

I played the streets.

Bar mitzvahs, bat mitzvahs.

Any mitzvah you can book, really.

But that's all behind me now.

- Shawn. - Charlie.

Hey, don't work too hard.

Man, I always work too hard.

Hey, do me a favor, would you?

Make sure he gets hired.

Will you go on a date with me?

No.

I'll still do it.

Stupid boy, right, Trumpet?

Not a total loss.

* On this day, I'll finally listen *

* To what's been calling me *

* All it takes is letting go *

* Of whatever we both think of me *

* This way, I'll stand out *

* And break away to be free *

* Happiness is what I can't live without *

* It's time to stand out *

* Oh, oh *

* Oh, it's time to stand out *

* Oh, oh *

* Oh, time to stand out *

[barking]

It's not! It's not!

It is! Kadee Worth! Mom, it's Kadee Worth!

- It's Kadee Worth! - Thanks a lot, Trumpet.

Come on! I love you!

- Can I get a picture with you? - Sure.

Mom, take my picture.

[camera snap]

Thank you!

- What are you doing? - [camera snap]

[doorbell jingling]

[slow playing]

BERNIE: No touching the merchandise.

You here to make another payment?

Yeah.

Nine dollars and 57 cents?

- Mm-hm! - At this rate,

your mom's piano will be yours...

- [whirring] - ...in 2021.

[sighing]

[up-tempo jazz rhythm]

[chuckling] Hey!

* Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh *

* Oh-oh-oh *

* Oh-oh-oh-oh * Take it from here, Bern.

* Nothin' gets better than having all the treasure *

* Instruments to radios, boom box, stereo *

* You can sell whatever, like magical sweaters *

* Even if it's old *

* You can sell it, we will buy it *

* Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh *

* Oh-oh-oh *

* Oh-oh-oh-oh *

* It's like a party at the pawn shop *

* Just havin' a good time *

* Look around, you'll find *

* Everything you can describe *

* Gold chains, video games *

* Just bought my girl a diamond ring *

* Not goin' home tonight *

* Everything here just feels right *

* The apple of my eye *

* This store is like oh-my! *

* Those drums right there so hot *

* I'm rockin' out, I'm so much better now *

* Blast these speakers up on loud *

* You lovin' this pawn shop? *

* Everybody, scream and shout! *

* Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh *

* Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh *

* Nothing gets better than this *

* Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh *

* Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh *

* Nothing gets better than this **

[whistling melody]

[doorbell jingling]

[whistling melody]

- Hyah! - Bye, Bern!

See you later, Charlie!

* Yeah, I love you so much *

* I hate you so bad *

WOMAN: Majesty Records.

[distant cheering and applause]

So many "thank-you's."

My agents, my managers.

And of course none of this would be possible

without my trusty rag.

Oh!

- Dad, you-- - Oh, hey!

- What are you doing here? - Didn't mean to startle you.

- I work here. - Whoa, whoa, whoa.

That could be fake. People get fake IDs.

If I were gonna get a fake ID, would I use this picture?

- Ugh. - Yeah,

his story does check out.

What do you have behind your back, Charlie?

Nothing.

You're not a good liar.

I-- I am too a good liar.

I am a very good liar,

I've lied successfully on many occasions.

In fact, just yesterday...

Mm-hmm.

Okay, I'm not a very good liar.

- I lied. - See? You are a liar.

Whoa! [chuckling]

Kadee, my darling, my love.

It's Finn, your prince, you're late for the--

- Who's this guy? - Charlie.

Okay, are you signed to Majesty Records as well?

I'm the janitor.

That's a bit of a lame stage name, mate.

I'll go with something else like, um, I don't know--

the Janitor? It might work.

So, what, are you, like, a rapper or something?

No, I'm-- I'm just the actual janitor.

Oh, well.

That's great.

Okay.. bye.

It's time for Kadee Worth's fragrance launch party.

[chuckling]

Photographers await, let's toodle-ooh.

Kadee.

Right!

Off for a wonderful evening with my boyfriend.

He's Finn.

Most girls would kill to be set up with him.

- I know, I know. - You should be happy.

- And I am. - Okay, why do you guys

keep doing that thing with your fingers?

I mean, I've told you, it confuses me.

And it frightens me.

It makes me want to punch you both.

Well, how's this for my "I'm so happy

I'm in a relationship that my dad thinks

will help me sell records" face?

- It's good. - Great.

Come on, Trumpet.

Hey, if you're gonna be late, call.

You know how I worry.

He's probably the youngest janitor ever, am I right?

[laughter]

[camera snaps]

Over here with this one.

Finn... would you...

Mm-mm-mm-mm!

Hah! That's funny.

I could do that too. We're playing.

We're playing! Oh, this is fun!

[laughter]

Inappropriate.

How adorable are we, right?

- [applause] - Just adorable.

Oh!

Oh...

Aah!

[sighing]

[breathing] Little spot there.

[chuckling]

Hope you have a very good night, sir.

How about that weather we're having, huh?

Very nice. [chuckling]

[soft rock rhythm]

* When I see myself in the mirror *

* Is this really me? *

* When I take off all my makeup *

* That's the person I should be *

- What do you think, Trumpet? - [barking]

Someday.

[music]

- Hey, Kadee. - Hey!

- How's your dog? - He's good.

- He misses you. - I miss him too.

I think I'm falling for your dog.

[laughter]

Somebody'll... somebody'll clean that up.

Somebody like the janitor?

Hey, that's me.

I should probably get started on that now.

[laughing]

Sweet.

Testing, one-two-three.

Ready to record his new single,

Grammy winner Charlie Prince,

five gold albums, eight top ten hits,

with his new hit: "Hands Up."

- Hey-- what-- - * Oh, oh, here I go *

* On my way to hit the club *

* Grab my bags, I'm out the door *

* Ain't got no worries no more *

* It's tonight, it's tonight *

* Feels like I'm on top *

* It's tonight, it's tonight *

* The party's going on *

* It's tonight, it's tonight *

* I don't want it to stop, it's tonight *

* It's tonight, tonight, tonight *

Thank you. Thank you.

* Oh, oh, here I go *

* On my way to hit the club *

Shawn, I'm so sorry. I was just messing around.

Messing around?

How'd you like to try that for real?

For real?

Nah, you gotta be kidding,

I'm just the kid with rags and mops.

Dude, you are way more than just a kid with rags.

What I heard in there was a bona fide recording artist.

And a real recording artist needs a demo,

I can help you make that happen.

You mean here, at the studio?

Don't say anything, all right, just sing.

All right, you're ready to go?

Here it comes.

[music]

* Oh, oh, here I go *

* On my way to hit the club *

* Grab my bags, I'm out the door *

* Ain't got no worries no more *

* Oh, oh, here I go *

* The party's going on *

* It's tonight, it's tonight *

* I don't want it to stop *

* It's tonight, it's tonight *

* Tonight, tonight *

* Tonight, I'm having a good time *

* Tonight, I'm having a good time *

* No worries, I'm gonna get mine *

* Tonight, I'm having a good time *

* Now, get your hands up *

* Oh-oh-oh, get your hands up *

* Oh-oh-oh, now get your hands up *

* Oh-oh-oh, get your hands up *

* Oh-oh-oh, now get your hands up *

* Oh, oh, letting go *

* All my problems out the door *

* I'm not stressing it no more *

* Party, party, here we go *

* Oh, oh, there I go *

* Sneaking out up out the door *

* Everybody like "where he go?" *

* I'm getting down on the floor *

* It's tonight, it's tonight *

* Feels like I'm on top *

* It's tonight, it's tonight *

* A party's going on *

* It's tonight, it's tonight *

* Tonight, I'm having a good time *

Now, get your hands up

* Oh-oh-oh, get your hands up *

* Oh-oh-oh, now get your hands up *

[electronic breakdown]

[downtuned outro]

Whoo!

Hey, can we do another? I got a ton more songs.

* I'm lying alone with my head on the floor *

Thinking of you...

Boys, this is your ticket...

to the big time.

What's it say? What's it say?

"Thank you for sending your demo material

"to Majesty Records for consideration.

"Presently your demo package is one of a quantity

"of exemplary material that was submitted to our offices.

"We regret to inform you, you did not qualify

for the Majesty Records talent contest."

This is your fault.

You're my brother!

- I love you. - I love you too.

[both grunting]

* I'll be gone *

And why are we following this kid?

I don't know. There's just something about him.

"OMG, he's so dreamy."

Just keep the engine running.

[doorbell jingling]

Charlie.

What did you do, kid?

Sell a body part?

I got a job.

You keep up payments like these,

and that piano will be yours, five years top.

So, what can I play for you today, my man?

Play "Perfect Harmony" again.

For a hundred dollars.

Here's "Perfect Harmony,"

going out to my man Bernie.

[playing]

Not bad for a janitor.

Thanks, I... I was just messing around.

Wait, why are you here anyway? Did you follow me here?

I didn't follow, I was just...

looking for some creepy stuff for my room.

- Uh-huh. - What are you doing here?

You come to some pawn shop to play a ratty old piano,

- what's that about? - It's my mom's.

[clearing throat] And more gorgeous,

it cannot be.

Thanks.

I should say it was my mom's.

Once upon a time.

So, your mom's gone?

Mm-hmm.

My-- My stepdad used the piano money

to buy a karaoke machine.

Sorry, Charlie.

Why don't you let a professional handle this?

My mom died too.

I'm sorry, I didn't know.

How could you? I don't wear

the "My Mom Died" T-shirt much these days.

You have one too?

It's good to talk to somebody who understands.

Mm-hmm.

[continues playing]

* When I first saw you, didn't know what to think *

* But something about you is so interesting *

* I could see me and you being best friends *

* The kind of friends that finish each other's sentences *

* When I can't think of the right words to say *

* I just sing oh-oh-oh *

* Oh-oh-oh *

* Come on and harmonize with my melody *

* And we'll sing oh-oh-oh *

* Ain't it a perfect harmony *

That was fun.

What were you playing before?

Uh, that was just a little bit of a song I wrote.

So those were your songs I got all wet the other day?

Don't worry, they stayed all in one piece.

Can I?

These lyrics are great.

Why haven't I heard you sing songs like this?

Yeah, right, my dad would go nuts.

They don't exactly fit the Kadee Worth brand.

But maybe someday I will.

No, you need to do it today.

I wanna take you some place. Do you trust me?

Ever since I was a little girl,

my dad always told me,

"Kadee, trust the janitor."

[laughing]

I trust you.

Miss Worth. For my kid?

Make it out to Bernie.

For my kid.

Named Bernie.

- Mmm. - [chuckling]

Mm-mm-mm, Princess, subway is one block away.

Kadee, your dad's not gonna like it.

He's also not gonna like you using his Yankee tickets

- without him knowing. - You two enjoy yourselves.

You're gonna need this.

- So... - This is the spot.

- Here? - It's perfect.

And no one will know it's you.

That makes me feel a lot better.

Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to...

- Charlie, no. - What?

I can't do it.

70,000 screaming fans, you're good to go.

Eight tourists, and you have a problem?

Okay.

* Oh, oh... *

* Oh... *

* Beauty in the mirror *

* You see what I see *

* I can see all that you want from me *

* I hear something strong *

* And it sounds like my name *

* But if I answer *

* Are you talking to me? *

* You say the sun's brighter *

* The moonlight's behind ya *

* The world's a playground *

* Pick a ride and you'll see *

* Sometimes you'll go up and *

* Sometimes you'll go down then *

* Sometimes you must fly *

* So that you can be free *

* When you feel you took your last breath *

* I promise you got more left *

* There's a chance if you take it *

* Don't be afraid to just dance *

* Look, look at me now! (Look at me now) *

* I'm starting to be stronger *

* There's no time to stop now, no! *

* Oh! I'm touching the clouds *

* I'm flying higher and higher *

* I'm not trying to come down *

* Can you look at me now? *

* Can you look at me now? *

* Nothing's impossible *

* The spark is in you *

* Light up the whole world *

* And just look, look, look at me now *

* Yesterday's gone now *

* Today's a new day *

* Tomorrow's my future *

* And it starts here today *

* The beauty inside *

* Is coming alive *

* I'm so happy it did, oh *

* When you feel you took your last breath *

* I promise you got more left *

* There's a chance if you take it *

* Don't be afraid to just dance *

* Look, look at me now! (Look at me now) *

* I'm starting to be stronger *

* There's no time to stop now, no! *

* Oh! I'm touching the clouds *

* I'm flying higher and higher *

* I'm not trying to come down *

* Can you look at me now? *

* Can you look at me now? *

* Nothing's impossible *

* The spark is in you *

Break it up.

* Just look, look, look at me now **

Move on, or I'll give you a ticket.

- [people groaning] - Oh.

Here you go.

You gotta keep this.

First dollar you made from your own music.

No-no-no-no, you put that back in there.

Thanks, Charlie.

Hey, you're good.

You should do this for a living.

The whole * Look, look, look *

- Thanks. - Thank you.

No-no-no-no-no...

Wait-wait-wait-wait-wait! Come back, hold the bus!

- Come on, I got it! - Wait!

Hey-hey! Come on!

Hey, one second.

- Whoo! - Thank you.

I can't believe I just did that.

You were awesome.

I haven't felt like that performing in so long.

- Thank you, Charlie. - My pleasure.

Let me pay you back somehow.

- No-no-no. - No, here, I want you

to come to this party my dad's throwing.

- Really? - It's gonna be amazing.

Except I'll be working and have to miss out on all the fun.

Oh-- aah!

Wait!

Are you Kadee Worth?

Can I have your autograph?

- Sure. - It's Kadee Worth.

[clamoring]

- This is Kadee Worth! - That's totally her.

[groaning]

You're late.

Nope, 58 seconds to spare, so.

If you'll excuse me.

What's this?

Invitation to...

Majesty Records' masquerade ball?

That's when they announce the winners

to the talent search.

Charlie, did you steal this?

No, I didn't steal it.

Kadee Worth gave it to me.

Right, Kadee Worth gave it to you.

Kadee Worth, that's so cool.

- It is. - Just give it back.

Oh, oh, Charlie, I'm sorry.

I can't let this go to waste.

- Excuse me? - Oh, boys,

your stepbrother has given you

the opportunity of a lifetime.

You're gonna go to that party,

and you're gonna show Reginald Worth

that he made a big mistake rejecting your CD.

- That is my invitation! - Whoa, whoa...

Charlie.

This is your opportunity too,

you-- you can stay behind,

and you can-- you can run the karaoke machine.

Consider it a promotion.

Boys, get to bed. We gotta get up early

and rent ourselves some costumes.

[beatboxing]

- * Masquerade * - * We're going *

- * Popularity * - * Is growing *

- * Our lyrics * - * Are flowing *

- * The ladies * - There's gonna be ladies?

There's gonna be ladies.

- I can't do this anymore. - There's g...

are there gonna be ladies?

Diego, get my sewing machine.

What, you mean that sewing machine

I found on the street that you didn't want?

Yes, finally one of your pieces of junk

is gonna be of some use.

I'll get it in a second, can you believe someone

threw away this perfectly good bike?

Stop messing with the garbage,

we gotta get Charlie into that party.

What party?

[snoring]

[flushing]

Hey, done with your chores?

You're smiling. Nobody smiles about chores.

Ta da! For you.

To work the karaoke machine?

For the Majesty Records' party.

Arthur gave my invitation to Androyd.

Come on, you gonna let a detail like an invitation

- stop you? - No, I'm gonna let about

a billion other things stop me. Arthur will

destroy me if he found out I went, I have school tomorrow,

there's tons of security. Maybe even an X-Ray.

Silence. For you.

- Your welcome. - Thank you.

It's awesome, but...

Who's gonna emcee karaoke if I'm not here?

- I'm your man. - Seriously?

Yeah. I've always wanted to do this job,

and I know I can do a great job too.

Well, what if I see Arthur at the party?

We thought of that.

You may see Arthur.

But Arthur will never see you.

Game changer.

Hey!

Boys! Let's go!

Have a nice pity party.

You're having a party?

I was making fun of him, idiot.

I gotta... I'll bring you some cake.

I still don't know how I'm gonna make it home before Arthur.

It'll be easy. You're gonna take

the fastest transportation there is in this city.

Tada!

My trusted steed is now yours.

Perfect!

- Do you have the mask? - Yeah.

Do you think he'll get in?

Not a chance.

Kadee, you're performing your number one single tonight,

"Love You, Hate You," looking forward to it?

Yes, I'm very excited, it's always great

to perform in front of a crowd.

Whether it's Madison Square Garden

- or eight tourists. - Would you say

this is your most personal album to date?

Well, when you say personal--

Of course it is. Of course it is, right?

Except for the part in the song when she said she hates me.

Cause she doesn't. You don't hate me, do you?

Do you? It's like when I was recording my album, right?

You never want to speak the truth.

[music]

Whoa! Whoa-whoa.

[car horns honking]

Whoa!

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Nick Cannon.

[cheering and applause]

Thank you! All right, thank you.

Welcome, Majesty Records' guests.

Are you all ready to get down?

[cheering and applause]

Let's do this.

[music]

Lloyd, shape up!

You'll never get discovered makin' a mess of yourself.

I'm more likely to get discovered.

What?

Think about it, you walk into a party,

there's two guys standing there, okay?

And one of them has barbecue sauce

covering his face.

Me, I look at the sauce guy.

Andrew, would you like to go mingle

while your brother cleans himself up?

Absolutely.

Hey.

- Hi, I'm Lloyd. - I'm-- I'm Tammy.

- No... no. - Can we share?

- No! - Nice to meet you.

Nice to...

Invitation?

That guy stole my ticket.

And I was like, "Good luck using it,

"no way that doorman's gonna believe

that's your ticket." And then he was like,

"Doormen are stupid."

- What? - And I was like,

"Doorman is a respected profession

with a very rich history."

Okay, wait here.

Wow, that worked.

Oh! Sorry.

Excuse me, I didn't see you.

No, it's my bad.

[raspy] I didn't see you there, big guy.

Keep up the good work. Loving the hair.

- Do I know you? - No.

[cheering and applause]

All right, y'all, why dontcha make some noise?

[cheering and applause]

Come on, come on. I got babies at home

that make more noise than that--

Make some noise!

[cheering and applause]

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

We got Kadee Worth in the building,

y'all make some noise!

[cheering and applause]

- What up, Nick? - What's up, girl?

Aight, y'all looking beautiful,

let's go ahead and show Majesty Records

we know how to have a good time.

[cheering and applause]

All right, you ready to dance with your king?

No, I'm ready to dance with you.

Hey! Looking good.

Oh, man, appreciate it, you too.

Thank you for doing this for me.

- Anytime, man. - Impressed.

Yeah.

Oh.

[EDM playing]

* Hiding *

* Behind a disguise *

* Can you feel me watching you? *

* It's magic *

* Then I'm lost in your spell *

* But you don't even have a clue *

* That I am hypnotized *

* Yeah, I'm drawn to your eyes *

* I just wanna see your face *

* Welcome to my masquerade *

* Masquerade *

Let's mix it up, party people!

Okay? Y'all are looking a little too comfortable.

Matter of fact, everybody on the dance floor,

turn to your left and meet your new partner.

* It's tragic, 'cause, after tonight, my heart... *

- I guess you're my partner. - I guess I am.

* And I am hypnotized *

* Yeah, I'm drawn to your eyes *

* I just wanna see your face *

So, are you having fun tonight?

If I'm being honest, not really.

* Masquerade *

I guess now I am.

[laughing]

* Masquerade *

I don't know, I just have a hard time...

Relaxing and being yourself?

How do you know that?

I see.

* Welcome to my masquerade *

Thanks for the dance, you're pretty amazing.

You know, it's true. You're too amazing

to be anything less than yourself.

Just be you.

Nice to meet you.

* Masquerade *

All right, all right, all right, it is time

to announce the finalists for the Majesty Records'

talent search, yeah.

It should be Androyd.

And the winner is...

- Fay Train! - [cheering and applause]

Ahh, Fay Train.

Ladies and gentlemen, I've just been informed

that their plane has been delayed,

and Fay Train will not be with us tonight.

- [boos] - What?

Why am I just hearing-- Irma!

I did not-- I was not aware.

I... we could...

Boss is upset, somebody better

get him a runner up.

And sometimes opportunity knocks.

- Sorry, off limits. - No, it's me, Charlie!

- Oh, hey, man. - Hey.

Check it out.

- All done. - Rags?

Everyone needs a stage name.

I figure when you're huge, you'll need to remember

where you came from, you know, so...

all those millions of fans don't go to your head.

This is the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me.

Hey, don't get all emotional on me now.

It's good by the way, really good.

Hello, Majesty Records. I'm Andrew.

I'm Lloyd, and we're Androyd.

- [music starts] - No.

No.

Who are they?

Oh, man, what are they doing?

Wait a minute, you know these guys?

Unfortunately yes, those clowns are sort of my stepbrothers.

[boo-ing]

* Like you don't care *

- [boo-ing] - Hey, hey, hey--

All right, I can't take this anymore.

This is your chance, get up there.

What? On stage? No, I can't-- I can't do that.

If you're terrible, nobody will know it's you.

Come on, you're gonna kill it.

Okay.

What happened? What did you do?

Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for...

Rags!

* The bright lights is flashing *

* I'm surrounded by madness *

* Yellow cabs is passing *

* I'm just trying to make it *

* Something special to me *

* Change falls at my feet, big dreams of Hollywood *

* Won't you come take a closer look? *

* I'm seeing the bright lights *

* The fancy cars, cover of magazines *

* That's what I want *

* But if you could look inside my heart *

* Then you will see *

* Come a little bit closer *

* We're not so different at all *

* At all, at all *

* Hey, we're not so different at all *

* At all, at all *

* Hey, we're not so different at all *

* You looking at me *

* Tell me what you see *

* You should know we're not so different at all *

* We'll shoot for the stars *

* I think we'll go far *

- * Believe me 'cause... * - Hey! Stop it!

* I see you on the big screen *

* You see me chasing my dreams *

* We kinda do the same thing *

* We're not so different, are we? *

* It's nothing to it *

* Together we can do this *

* It's only just a matter *

* A matter, a matter of time *

* I see the bright lights *

* The fancy cars *

- * In my dream... * - Charlie?

* If you could look inside my heart *

* Then you will see *

* So come a little bit closer *

* We're not so different at all *

Whoo!

* At all *

* We're not so different at all *

Whoo-ooh-ooh...

* At all *

* We're not so different at all *

* What's up? I'm dreaming *

* I'm living it up *

* It's true, I love what I do, yeah *

* No, I'm never giving it up *

* Throw me the ball, I'll hit it out the park *

* Just a little light trying to get out of the dark *

* And even when I shine, I'll never stop *

* Yeah, yeah, I see the bright lights *

- * The fancy cars * - Let's get out of here.

No-no-no-no, I wanna-- I wanna stay for the party.

These girls totally have been checking me out.

They just want to interview you for Idiot Magazine.

- Really? - Plenty of people here

she could talk to, these people are all idiots!

Come on, we gotta go strategize.

- Never give up! - Never surrender.

* Not so different at all **

[cheering and applause]

- Losers! - Oh.

Wait!

Who are you?

Be you.

What, did I miss something?

Hey, you gonna pay me or what?

Oh, no, no-no!

I told you I'm married!

- Martha, it's me. - Charlie!

You scared me!

- Okay, I'm locked out. - After the other night,

Arthur nailed the mensroom's window shut.

- So, how was the party? - Okay, later.

Arthur, keep him distracted, okay?

Diego!

- Hurry, hurry! - What about my tip?

No!

[humming]

Hey, Arthur, check it out.

Idiots! Straight to bed, you two!

I'm checking on Charlie.

What is this? This place is a mess.

Arthur, hungry? Thirsty? I made you your favorite.

I'm sure the food at the party was awful.

- No! Thank you! - I'm thirsty.

Diego! Hurry up!

Come on!

Go...

Arthur, Arthur, Arthur, wait-wait-wait-wait.

- I must ask you something. - What, now?

Yeah, uh, I need to know something.

Out with it, Diego!

What do you want for breakfast?

The omelet you had the other day was

very tasty, right?

Yeah, sure, it's fine, whatever!

[groaning]

[screaming]

Whoa...

- Move! - Move?

Move? This way?

Move!

- I didn't hear you knock. - That's because I didn't.

[sighing]

My CD.

No-no-no-no-no...

that's not good.

Dad, if you could just please--

I don't have time. Fay Train is

thinking about signing with another label.

- I have to meet with him. - But this is the Rags guy

- from the party last night. - Kadee, I am the guy

that's always looking for the next best thing.

But clearly Rags isn't ready for the big time,

or else he wouldn't've run out like he did.

Besides, I'm more concerned about you.

Irma tells me you've been missing meetings.

Irma needs to mind her own business.

Look, you're changing the subject.

Rags is amazing, and if you just give him a chance,

you can see he has a lot to offer.

Kadee, I don't wanna talk about Rags anymore.

We're about to launch the biggest record

of your career, and you're getting distracted.

- And you're not listening. - It's my job

to make sure my daughter's head is on straight.

Your job as my dad or... chairman of Majesty Records?

We'll talk about this when I get back.

* I love you so much *

- * I hate you so bad * - No problem.

* Said I don't miss you *

* I love you, I don't judge you *

Hey, you!

Hey, Kadee. What are you doing here?

Where were you last night?

[coughing]

Caught a cold, stayed home, watched a movie.

Oh, really? What did you watch?

Can't remember the name.

Reese Witherspoon was in it, though.

- Cried my eyes out. - Yeah, right.

You were right when you said you weren't a good liar.

Helps to practice, though.

Anyway, you totally missed out.

I know, I wanted to see you sing.

No, not me! This Rags guy performed.

- He killed it! - Really?

- Really! - This guy Rags killed it?

Dude can sing.

And he's not too bad at the kissing stuff either.

- Oh, he kissed you? - Just laid one on me,

no time to react, I mean, really.

There was nothing I could do.

Right, right... [laughing]

so, why did you come here today?

I was hoping you'd be able to help me.

Rags left a CD.

No contact info, no nothing.

But what it did have was a track of the song

he performed last night.

And this.

* I'll follow my dreams *

* You'd think they were... *

Yo, this song is great.

That song someday is gonna lead me straight to Rags.

Wait, you want to find Rags? Why?

Charlie, you should have seen him.

He sang about something that was more than

"I love you, I hate you."

It was really inspiring.

Kadee, I should tell you...

I'm Rags.

He's amazing, Charlie, seriously,

you gotta help me find this guy.

You know, sometimes it feels like

the whole world wants a piece of Kadee Worth.

But not you, Charlie.

Please help me find Rags.

And just how do you plan on finding him?

That song, you and I are the only two

that have heard it. We'll hold an audition.

Whoever sings "Someday" is the real Rags.

Huh.

So are you in, or you out?

[sighing] In.

* La-la-la-la *

* La-la-la *

Good job.

Can I recommend in D minor?

Oh... my God!

You're her!

- [chuckling]

- Would you-- - Mm-mm.

Would you sign this for me? Please?

[music]

- We're up on Perez. - That's great.

Guess what? We're on MTV homepage too.

Oh, nice!

Guilty Group is having a sample sale.

Majesty Records will sign the first person

to prove they're Rags. We're scouring the internet,

we're holding auditions. I know he's out there somewhere,

and I won't stop until I find him.

Are you Rags?

- Yes! - [phone ringing]

Hello?

Great, she's on her way. Thank you.

- The venue is available. - Yes!

Let's go check it. Let's go.

Oh, thanks.

- Who are you texting now? - I'm not texting.

I'm tweeting about the Rags audition.

I just hit 7 million followers.

Seriously? 7 million followers?

Yeah, how many do you have?

My gosh, tons.

So many tweeters...

also follow my...

- My tweeting. - Tweetings?

- You're hilarious. - You're hilarious.

- You're hilarious. - No, you're hilarious.

Oh!

My bad, I thought that bench was longer.

You're lucky I like you.

No, I'm Rags!

[people clamoring]

Just-- a-ta-ta-ta ta-ta-ta-ta...

IRMA: This is what is happening.

There is a mob scene in the lobby.

Since you were too busy to listen to the CD,

I'm holding auditions to find Rags.

Yes, Irma has made me aware.

Kadee, this is a complete fiasco.

You are putting your music in jeopardy,

and your relationship with Finn-- he's a mess!

Look at him!

Relationship?

Yeah, this guy Rags is

kicking me off all the magazine covers.

But more importantly, I miss you. I miss us.

- We don't talk anymore. - Because we never talked.

This is a business arrangement.

And none of you ever listen.

Because you're too busy

running around with that kid.

- Who, Charlie? - Ahh, see?

It's cute, you're trying to make me jealous.

She's trying to get my attention.

I've got it, you're here. I'm here, hello.

Kadee, is this true?

You're totally right, what was I thinking?

Why would Kadee Worth, the biggest star in the world,

hang out with someone who scrubs the floor I walk on?

It's not like that. We just want you

- to focus on your music. - Yes, your music.

Right? And us. I think we should do

an exclusive with Hollywood VIP.

Why can't you be more grateful?

People are always telling me

how grateful I should be. But how can I be grateful

when I'm successful at something my heart's just not in?

Look, Charlie is cooler than everyone

in this building combined.

And he's gonna help me find Rags.

We're gonna prove you guys wrong.

And Finn, here's an exclusive.

We're done.

Someone's got her crabby pants on today, eh?

Finn, go make a record or something, just...

Really?

[rock beat playing]

- * Yo! * - No, no!

Lloyd, how many times are you gonna mess up the snake?

You're ruining the whole thing.

You go right and then left,

when your brother goes left and then right.

Take a break. I'm exhausted.

- Need any help? - Excuse me?

My dad was yelling at me again.

I could use some company.

You know, ever since that Rags guy showed up at the ball,

- he's been worse than ever. - Was Rags really that good?

Oh, yeah, you would have loved him.

Plus, you both have

the same way of marking up your shoes.

Don't worry, your secret's safe with me.

- No way. - Plus I kinda like it

how it makes my dad so angry.

Can I ask you something?

Why don't you just tell Kadee?

She's Kadee Worth, she could have anybody.

Maybe she wants you.

Trust me, Lloyd, no girl's looking

for a nobody from a horrible family.

They want some good-looking famous guy

who will be mean to them.

Girls are weird like that.

What are you doing?

You never know, until you try.

- Lloyd! - I can keep picking up

these glasses and dropping them on the floor

until you're telling me you're going for this girl.

- Not gonna happen. - What about the auditions?

Obviously Rags won't be showing up,

but that's just how it's gonna have to be.

- No-no! - What is going on?

Look at all these broken glasses.

What? No-no-no-no-no!

This is coming out of your pay.

You don't pay me.

Are you ready to focus and rehearse with your brother?

Yeah, just making sure this little grunt muffin

doesn't break all our glasses.

- That's my boy. - I'll be right there.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that.

You know you're not a grunt muffin, right?

I don't even know what a grunt muffin is.

Gross.

What is this stuff?

Come on!

What's the cheapest one you got?

What?

Something interesting has come up.

I'll call you back. This better be good.

[gasping, laughing]

Nice... nice.

- Excited? - Nervous.

I don't know why, I've been in front of huge crowds.

I guess this time it's just different.

Well, I have nothing but faith in you.

Just be you.

What?

- Charlie? - Kadee?

- What are you doing here? - Auditioning.

What are you doing here?

You don't miss an opportunity, do you?

Dad was looking for you, he said it was important.

He's upstairs.

Okay.

[chuckling]

You're pretty crafty, Charlie.

You know, sometimes

I think I underestimate you.

Thanks, though most of the time

I think you just overestimate yourself.

Hey, I'm trying to be nice here.

I got something for you.

- Come on, I'll show you. - Okay.

My friend Charlie... right here... check it out.

Whoa-whoa-whoa! Hey! Hey!

So you think you're a singer, Charlie?

How dare you try to steal your brothers' dream.

Oh, by the way, I'm selling the Palace.

They're gonna turn it into an auto-part store,

maybe they need a janitor.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I have to introduce Andrew to the world as Rags.

No!

Where's Charlie?

I won't let you stop this.

Who says I'm here to stop this?

- Here to stop this? - You wanna help me

- find Rags? - I'm sorry,

I haven't been listening to you.

I need to do that more.

What happened to my dad? Is your head on straight?

I think it finally is.

- And I think that-- - That I'm in love with Irma.

* Someday... *

- [laughter] - * Someday... *

* Someday I'm gonna be a rock-rock-rock *

* Rock-rock-rock-rock star *

I'm sorry. Next.

I'm-- uh-uh, next.

It's done.

Andrew, consider tonight

the first night of the rest of your career.

What about my career? What about Androyd?

It's a solo act now, bro. You're just backup.

Tonight, I'm Rags.

What?

Not even surprised.

[shouting indistinctly]

Help! Help! Please help me!

Trumpet! Trumpet! It's me, go get help, boy!

- [barking] - Go go go!

* Yeah, someday, someday *

I'm bored.

Bored.

Yeah, let's get out of here.

- [barking] - Ssh! People are singing.

- Ssh! - * Someday *

* Someday *

* Someday... *

Baby, you ready to call it quits?

Not quite yet, Dad.

Okay, so, Rags seems to be on the shy side.

Maybe I'll sing a little "Someday,"

and that'll show you how it's done.

* I'll follow my dreams *

* You'd think they were nightmares *

* The way they scream *

* I'll make them believe *

* That someday, someday *

* I'm gonna be the next big thing *

VOICE: * I'll follow my dreams *

* You'd think they were nightmares *

* The way they scream *

* I'll make them believe *

* Someday, someday *

* I'm gonna be the next big thing *

* I never doubt my dreams, always live 'em out *

* Ima tell the world, they gotta hear me out *

* Just give me one mic so I can scream it loud *

* And I just need someone that I can make proud *

* 'Cause I can't wait for that someday *

* And that someday, it is coming *

* I wanna share my life with someone *

* Who loves me just for me-- hey! *

[cheering and applause]

You-- You're Rags?

You heard the song, didn't you?

But you sounded so different

- at the masquerade party. - Different lyrics,

and the acoustics in here stink.

[barking]

Trumpet, what has gotten into you?

It's-- yeah, it's me, please, get me out of here, please!

- Charlie? - Look, you gotta get me

- out of here, please help! - Oh! Okay! Um...

okay, just... oh-oh-oh!

- Will this help? - No.

Ahh, I got this.

- I totally helped. - Thank you.

- [barking] - Okay, go-go-go!

Congratulations, I guess.

My daughter sees something in you.

And I'm a man of my word, welcome to Majesty Records.

- Thank you, thank you. - [cheering and applause]

The future of Majesty Records, ladies and gentlemen.

Looks like you're a little late.

Sorry, Charlie.

[cheering and applause]

They knew.

[distant voices and clapping]

Welcome to the celebration!

- [cheering] - [music]

* To the night when I... *

* Suddenly realize the time is now *

* There's nothing to prove *

* Twenty minutes to light it up *

* Tonight we lose ourselves *

Hey, party pooper. You can't leave yet,

we haven't introduced Rags, our guest of honor.

You didn't really think you'd win, did you?

Charlie, where are you going?

You can't leave.

Can't stay.

Sort of done with this place.

Wait. Can you do me a favor before you go?

Stay while I introduce Rags.

Couldn't found him without you.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

First of all, thank you all for coming for this celebration.

It's been a pretty wild ride, hasn't it, everybody?

And what a crazy ending.

who would've thought we'd actually find our Rags?

But we did.

I knew Rags was incredibly talented

the minute I heard him sing.

I knew his lyrics would inspire others like they inspired me.

But what took time to realize

was that his friendship is what change me the most.

So, without further ado,

please put your hands together for the real Rags.

My son, I made him.

Mr. Charlie Prince.

- What? - What?

- What? - Charlie,

it's time to be you.

Well, I'm sure we all enjoy a good laugh,

but I'm glad to be here and--

I'm sorry for the confusion, everyone.

Charlie, get your butt up here.

[cheering and applause]

- How did you know? - "Just be you"?

How could you think I wouldn't figure it out?

It's your stage, Charlie.

Take it.

* Now that I'm older I think about it *

* I was really having fun, too cool about it *

* I guess Mom was predicting the future *

* She knew that one day I was gonna move ya *

* Okay, okay, but now I see everything a little different *

* The world looks bigger and the sky is the limit *

* I'm always looking out for myself and family *

* They gonna be surprised shoutin' out ooh-wee!*

* I got it, everything my mama wanted from me *

* I got it, anybody come and take it from me *

* I got it 'cause it's all us *

* I'm so close I can dream about it *

* I can feel I got it, music, I'm all about it *

* I'm here to make a change, I'mma be about it *

* I didn't come this far to stop now *

* And I can't rest until I get my dreams out the clouds *

* Someday I'll be *

* The next big thing *

* Someday, someday *

* I'm gonna be the next big thing *

* One day I'm gonna be king of the palace *

* When I reign, there'll be no imbalance *

* Everything will be okay *

* Every single day all day *

* You can follow me if you wanna go *

* I'mma take the lead, I got the star role *

* Twinkle in the night like the star goes *

Wait-wait.

Look, I'm not the only artist here tonight though, folks.

As the real Rags, it is my pleasure to give you

the real Kadee Worth.

[cheering and applause]

Sing what you've sang to me.

- Sing your song. - I can't.

My dad has a plan.

No, sweetheart.

I want to hear your song.

[applause]

[acoustic guitar]

* I'm a bird that's learning to fly now *

* I'm getting better every day *

* And there's no taking the time out *

* Yeah *

* Cause I've got too much to change *

- * On this day * - * I'll finally listen *

* To what's been calling me *

- * All it takes * - * Is letting go *

[cheering and applause]

And boy, did I hear you, loud and clear.

Loud and clear, jinx.

And from now on, you're in charge

of picking your own music.

And thanks to you all and you, Shawn,

we found our real Rags.

- You're our next big star. - Thank you so much.

Well, at least we still got the Palace.

Actually, no, you don't.

- What? - What?

- What are you talking about? - You know exactly

- what I'm talking about. - No, Lloyd, don't.

No, okay? No, I--

I'm done lying for you.

Your mom didn't leave this place for my dad,

she left it for you, check the deed.

That is a lie. You little traitor.

- I don't-- - This place is yours.

Charlie, you got your fairy tale ending.

Come here.

What am I supposed to do now?

And it's not over yet.

[cheering and applause]

SHAWN: So maybe life can be like a fairy tale after all.

Do you have a dream? Do you believe?

* I would have never thought I'd be here with you *

* To start a friendship that is so brand new *

* It's so amazing I have to say *

* Never met someone that had so much in common with me *

* Now I can look into your eyes all day *

- * And just say * - * Oh oh oh *

* Oh oh oh *

* I wanna harmonize with your melody *

- * And we'll sing * - * Oh oh oh *

* Ain't it a perfect harmony *

* Sometimes in your lifetime *

* You look and you search for someone just to care *

* Look around and it was there *

* And we didn't need to go nowhere *

* When I can't think of the right words to say *

* The right words to say *

* Ain't it a perfect harmony *

- * You got me * - * I got you *

- * I got you * - * You got me *

- * Yeah, you got me * - * I got you *

* A perfect harmony... **
