Recap
***
Deuce: Man, I can't believe Rocky and CeCe might get to go to Japan.
Gary Wilde: The winner of our "Shake it Up!" dance smackdown is...
"Shake it Up, Chicago!"!
The Chicago team, including Rocky and CeCe cheered, along with the audience.
Ty: I felt bad that he couldn't come, so I figured, this is the next best thing.
Keiko: I am pleased to announce the arrival of your host, Mr. Watanabe!
Mr. Watanabe: Welcome to Tokyo!
Mr. Watanabe: I am very, very impressed with you girls. I would like to work with both of you.
Rocky: I've become a supporting character in "The CeCe Show" instead of starring in "The Rocky Show", and I'm done.
Rocky walks out.

Opening Credits
***
Michi's house, outside.
Georgia has a private conversation with CeCe.
Georgia: Honey, can I talk to you?
Inside Michi's living room.
Ty: Rocky, can I talk to you?
Georgia: I mean, how long are you two gonna stay mad at each other?
Ty: You think it's time to end this?
Andy: You think being miserable and alone is better? It's not. I know. (voice breaks) Toi-Toi...?
Ty: You know you're gonna make up. You'll always make up. So get to it.
Deuce: (from tablet) I mean, come on. You're CeCe and Rocky.
Scene switches to Michi's living room chair, where the tablet is situated on.
Deuce: Come on. You're Rocky and CeCe.
Henry is holding a line chart labeled, "Rocky and CeCe's Big Fight".
Henry: I've charted a graph predicting the fight. CeCe is the red line, Rocky is the blue line. (laughs, pause) Perhaps a pie chart would be better. (crumples the paper and throws it away)
Flynn: We know you're at the end of the road of this, and, man. Look, all this smopey, girly stuff isn't getting you anywhere. My suggestion? You two share a nice, frosty glass of (yells angrily) "get over it"!
Georgia: So, what do you say?
Ty: Forgive and forget?
Pause.
Split-screen of CeCe and Rocky.
CeCe and Rocky: (in unison) Never going to happen!
Rocky takes out a book to read.
***
Ginza train station.
Gunther and Tinka take a walk. Tinka lets out a sigh of relief.
Gunther: You know, I was so upset when we lost our clothes, but, this has been a true growth experience.
Tinka: Oh, I agree. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes in even more sensational garb, we are reborn.
Gunther gets distracted after looking at a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, wearing monogrammed clothes that look similar to what Gunther and Tinka wear.
Gunther: Hey! Those are our outfits. Who are you?
The boy and the girl mimic Gunther and Tinka's intro.
Boy: (puts arms up) I am Genta!
Girl: (puts arms up) And I am Tomaka!
Boy and Girl: And we are...
Gunther: The thieves who stole our clothes!
Tinka: Cough up the cloth, sister!
Gunther, Tinka, Genta, and Tomaka argue and fight. They yell at each other simultaneously in Japanese and English.
A security officer comes up to them. He tries to break up the fight, but Tinka elbow-punches him in the nose.
Tinka: Uh-oh.
***
Security and deportation office.
CeCe runs to Gunther and Rocky.
CeCe: I got your text. Tinka's been arrested?
CeCe gets distracted at Rocky.
CeCe: What's she doing here?
Rocky: (glances at Gunther, stern) You texted... CeCe?
Gunther stands up.
Gunther: I would have texted the others, but they were all too cheap to pay for the international calling plan.
CeCe: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. We have to pay extra here?
Two security officers walk in. One of the officers is the one that got punched in the nose in Gunther and Tinka's fight with Genta and Tomaka. The hurt officer wears a bandage on his nose.
Gunther: (puts hands on his hips) I am Gunther! But where is Tinka?
Security officer: She's on her way to the airport now. She's being deported to some country with... 16 consonants.
Gunther: Deported to the old country? But Tinka has a green card, which says she's allowed to stay in the U.S. as long as she doesn't get... arrested.
The security officer nods.
Gunther: Oh, no.
Rocky: Okay, we need to find the quickest route to the airport.
CeCe: Okay, I'm on it.
CeCe takes out her phone. She gets confused.
CeCe: Wait, does this cost extra, too?
Gunther and Rocky: CeCe!
***
Airport.
Tinka is being taken by two deportation officers. Rocky, CeCe, and Gunther run in.
Rocky: There she is!
Gunther: Tinka!
Tinka turns to Gunther.
Tinka: Gunther! (turns to one of the deportation officers) Don't do this! Please, I'll do anything! They just made you one drab color for all eternity. (turns to Gunther) Do not take me from my brother.
Gunther and Tinka walk up to each other. CeCe and Rocky get close to them.
CeCe: I'm sorry. But you cannot break them up. If any two people belong together, it's them. They're a team.
Rocky: You can't split up a team. They're so much better and stronger...
CeCe: ...And happier when they're together. (sigh) And sure, one of them may have made a mistake, but she's so sorry.
Rocky: And she's so forgiven. Because she's not the only one that made mistakes.
CeCe and Rocky give each other a hug.
Tinka points to herself.
Tinka: Uh, hello! People being deported here.
Gunther: Yeah. What about us?
Deportation officer: (speaks in Japanese. Translation: "You know what, I got a date tonight.") Okay, we are putting you both an a plane back to the U.S., right now.
Gunther walks up to Tinka.
Gunther: Thank you.
Tinka: Thank you so much!
Gunther and Tinka: Sayonara, bay-bees!
Gunther and Tinka leave.
CeCe: I am so sorry, Rocky. You're my best friend--
Rocky: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love you too. But right now, we'll need to go get our jobs back.
CeCe: Okay. So here's the plan. We'll go home, then move to Florida, and then audition for "Shake it Up, Miami!".
Rocky: Or, we can just go find Mr. Watanabe again and beg him to change his mind.
CeCe: And that's why you're the smart one.
Rocky and CeCe leave.
***
Michi's house.
Georgia is sitting, reading a book. Michi is frustrated at her computer. Choppy music plays from her computer.
Michi: (frustrated) Georgia. One of your 600 kids broke my computer. It's completely frozen, and it happened right after I downloaded that stupid dancing app!
Georgia: Well, that must be a coincidence, because I downloaded that app to my phone, and it's perfectly... (takes out phone, choppy music plays from it) frozen, too.
Ty and Flynn went inside the house.
Ty: I think Rocky and CeCe gave us a virus.
Flynn: He means Rocky and CeCe are a virus.
Michi: Yes, your stay here just gets better and better! (slams her computer shut)
***
Theater.
CeCe and Rocky find a line while waiting to see a dance performance.
CeCe: Hideko said her grandfather would be here tonight.
Rocky: (points) There he is!
Mr. Watanabe walks in with his mother.
CeCe: And there he goes. (turns to Rocky) Well. Now what? We don't have tickets. We can't get in.
Rocky: Well, we can't apologize to him and get our jobs back from out here.
CeCe crosses her arms. She and Rocky get distracted by a sign reading "Performers Entrance".
Rocky: Performers Entrance, huh? Well, we are performers, so let's start entering.
Rocky takes CeCe's hand and they run and cut in front of the line.
Rocky: Excuse me, performers! Performers coming through, thank you, ma'am! Thank you!
CeCe: Yep, that's what we are!
They enter through the door.
A traditional Japanese geisha dance performance is about to start.
Mr. Watanabe sits with his mother.
Mr. Watanabe: All right, Mother. Are you happy with the seats? They are the best, just like you deserved.
Mr. Watanabe's mother shows a disgusted look on her face.
Pan to the Japanese dance performers, then Rocky and CeCe dressed as geishas.
CeCe: (mockingly) "Let's just use the performers' entrance."
Rocky: How did I know that they were gonna shove us into hair and makeup and push us on stage?!
The performers flap their fans up and down. CeCe and Rocky follow along.
Mr. Watanabe and his mother are shocked.
CeCe: This apology is not off to a great start.
Rocky: Well, we're all going down, might as well do it in flames.
CeCe: I'm with you.
CeCe and Rocky walk onto the center of the stage, still flapping their fans.
Rocky: Ready?
Rocky and CeCe: Five, six, seven, eight.
Rocky and CeCe do hip-hop style dancing. while the traditional dancers do their thing. The audience is shocked at Rocky and CeCe's moves.
Cut to Mr. Watanabe and his mother.
Mr. Watanabe: I will deal with this!
Mr. Watanabe tries to get up, but his mother stops him. He sits back down and glances at her. Mr. Watanabe's mother smiles and starts dancing.
Mr. Watanabe: (shocked) Mama!
***
Mr. Watanabe has a conversation with Rocky and CeCe.
Mr. Watanabe: At first, I was going to have you thrown out. But then, my mother smiled. I have not seen that since she met Justin Timberlake. But clearly, my instincts about you two were correct.
CeCe: Thank you.
Mr. Watanabe: I have given you a second chance.
CeCe lets out a relieved gasp.
Mr. Watanabe: The music festival my company sponsors, "Watanabalooza" is tomorrow night. And you two will perform. 5,000 people will be in attendance. It is the perfect way to engage in how a real audience will respond to you.
CeCe: This is incredible. But, unfortunately, we have other plans.
Mr. Watanabe: Hm?
Rocky: We do? What could be more important than this? Wait. Are we opening up for Katy Perry and nobody bothered to tell me?
CeCe: No. Your memory book. It's not too late to start filling it up with the things that are important to you. It's time for me to start being the supporting character in "The Rocky Show".
Rocky: (with a smile) Thank you. That's so sweet. (angered) And so stupid. 5,000 people? When am I ever gonna be able to put that in my memory book again?
Mr. Watanabe: Oh. So, we are good.
Mr. Watanabe tries to leave, but CeCe stops him.
CeCe: Not so fast. You'll also put us back on "Shake it Up, Chicago!"?
Mr. Watanabe: Yes, of course.
Mr. Watanabe tries to leave, but Rocky stops him.
Rocky: Oh, and, get us back on the video game?
Mr. Watanabe: Why not?
Mr. Watanabe tries to leave, but CeCe stops him.
CeCe: And put us back in our hotel suite?
Mr. Watanabe: Consider it done.
Mr. Watanabe tries to leave, but Rocky stops him.
Rocky: Oh, and, rehire Keiko?
Mr. Watanabe: Yes, fine.
Mr. Watanabe tries to leave, but CeCe stops him.
CeCe: And, throw in a free shopping spree just for the heck of it?
Mr. Watanabe: Don't push your luck, red.
Mr. Watanabe leaves.
CeCe: I cannot believe this, Rocky. Pretty soon, everybody in Japan is gonna know who we are!
CeCe and Rocky squeal and jump excitedly.

***
Hotel suite.
Flynn, Henry, CeCe and Rocky are sitting on a table. Henry is on a laptop, when the doorbell buzzes.
Flynn is going to answer the door.
Flynn: (yells) Watashi ga demasu, Mom!
Flynn presses the door open button. Ichiro and Hideko enter in distress.
Ichiro: Bad news, peeps.
Hideko: We have made a horrific mistake. Our app contained a virus that is causing every electronic device in Tokyo to shut down.
Ichiro: And unless it can be stopped, this could go global. The whole world could catch the Rocky and CeCe Virus!
Rocky: (confused) "The Rocky and CeCe Virus"? Yeah, are we married to that name? 'Cause, you two really deserve the credit.
CeCe: So, what I'm hearing is, this'll be great publicity for our concert!
Rocky: Concert. Oh no, CeCe, I'm pretty sure that the light and sound system at the concert are run by computers! We're not gonna be able to perform tonight.
CeCe: Well, don't just sit there! Do something!
Henry: Did you use open-source code to save time, and the virus was hidden in it?
Hideko: Maybe.
Henry: (shakes head, tsk-tsk-tsk) Rookie mistake.
Ichiro: Oh, man. G-Dad's gonna kill us.
Hideko: (hands Henry a flash drive) Look, we have the code to fix it, but our computers are down. Can you help us, please?
Henry: Absolute-a-lee-toodlee.
Henry puts the flash drive on his laptop. Andy walks in.
Andy: (distressed) Help! Help! My toilet can no longer talk! The virus ruined her. My life without Toi-Toi is empty and meaningless. (wailing)
Andy leaves.
CeCe: Wait. If the virus is shutting everything down, then why is Andy still okay?
Flynn: Because, unlike the rest of this country, we have no interest in downloading a Rocky and CeCe app. Talk about empty and (singsong) meaningless.
Henry: Shoot. I can't get past the firewall from here. We're going to have to access the Watanabe mainframe and manually insert the flash drive.
Rocky: Whatever it takes, we have to stop the Hideko and Ichiro Virus.
Hideko and Ichiro give Rocky a weird look.
Rocky: Just trying it out. It's catchy, right? Huh? Huh? No, okay.
***
Watanabe Global building, tech room.
Henry: The virus has shut down all the electronic doors, and the only way to access the mainframe and plug in this flash drive, is through this vent. It's our only hope. Any volunteers?
CeCe: Well, that would be a really tight fit, I know you can do it, Rocky.
Rocky: Really? The tallest girl in Japan? Is that really our best choice? We need someone who can actually fit in there.
Flynn: (murmurs) There's gotta be someone. (turns to choose one of the gang) Gotta be someone.
Hideko, Ichiro, CeCe, Rocky, Henry: Flynn!
Flynn: Fine! I'll do it!
Henry: Okay. I'll talk you through it.
Hideko: Good luck, Flynn.
Ichiro: You can do it, yo.
Flynn: So, I've gotta...
Rocky and CeCe carry Flynn. They hoist him up to the vent.
***
Inside the vent. Flynn is crawling in.
Cut to the tech room.
Henry: Okay. Be very careful in there.
Flynn: Why? Are there creepy rats and spiders in here?
Henry: No, don't be ridiculous. But there are lasers.
Flynn: Lasers?!
Henry: (through headset) Just kidding. I thought a little frivolity would help lighten the mood.
CeCe peeks out.
CeCe: I believe in you, Flynn. You can do it. But if you don't make it, it's cool to turn your room into a walk-in closet, right?
Henry: Okay. You should be close to a fork in the vent. Turn left.
Flynn: Copy that. (turns left) Turning left.
Henry: Right. Now you should be close to a grate that looks into a room.
Flynn: (looks inside the grate) All right. I'm at that grate.
Henry: Okay. There should be a vending machine in the southwest corner.
Flynn: Copy that. I see the vending machine.
Henry: Okay, do they sell anything chocolatey? I'm in the mood for a snack.
Ichiro gives Henry a weird look.
Flynn: Henry!
Henry: Sorry, man. Just go another 15 feet and that should take you to the room where the mainframe is.
Flynn: Copy that. (makes a turn)
Henry: All right. Now all you have to do is just reach through that incredibly sharp, fast rotating industrial fan, and plug in the flash drive.
Flynn gets to the fan.
Flynn: I don't copy that! Sorry, guys, I'm not losing my arm over this.
Rocky snatches Henry's headset.
Rocky: (talks through headset) You've got two of them. Just do it.
The gang gives her weird looks.
Rocky: What? You wanted to turn his room into a walk-in closet and I'm the bad guy?
Rocky hands the headset back to Henry.
CeCe: Wait a minute. Flynn may not be able to get his arm through there, but, I think I know who can.
Andy enters the vent. He gets to the fan.
Andy: Must save Toi-Toi. Must save Toi-Toi.
Rocky snatches Henry's headset.
Rocky: Yes. That's right. Do it for love. (sobs) Giving yourself up means your toilet will live on forever. (normal voice) Wow, this is so not what I thought Japan would be like. (hands headset back to Henry)
Static appears on the laptop.
Henry: Andy's down! He's lost all power!
Flynn: Don't panic! I'm sure he's fine.
Andy's severed leg falls down from the vent.
Ichiro and Hideko gasp.
Flynn: Or not.
Henry and Flynn walk to look at Andy's severed leg.
Henry: We lost Andy and it was all for nothing.
Music plays from CeCe's phone.
CeCe: My phone's working again!

Tech room.
Rocky: He did it. He fixed the virus!
Ichiro: Yay-yeah!
Hideko: Pound it! (fist bumps Ichiro) This is great! Now we have nothing to worry about!
Mr. Watanabe enters.
Ichiro: Uh-oh.
Ichiro and Hideko bow.
Ichiro: Grandfather.
Mr. Watanabe: Your computer project has brought shame to my business and our family.
Ichiro: Great. Now he wants to talk about the app.
Hideko bumps Ichiro's shoulder.
CeCe: Wait. Mr. Watanabe, instead of focusing on what they did, maybe you should focus on why they did it.
Rocky: Um, CeCe, maybe we should just stay out of this before he fires us again. Watanabalooza?
CeCe: Rocky, you know I don't speak Japanese. Besides, I don't care if he's wrong. Heidi and Itchy could be the next techie superstars. And they were just trying to impress you and get your approval.
Rocky: Just like when you were trying to get your mother's approval at the theater.
CeCe: I mean, sure, they always destroy the computer infrastructure of the entire world, but who hasn't been there, done that?
Mr. Watanabe: You never know when to shut up, do you, red?
Rocky: You're getting used to it.
Ichiro: We're sorry, Grandfather.
Hideko: Very, very sorry.
Mr. Watanabe: I am still angry with you. But, I am even angrier with myself. The young ladies are right. I should have paid more attention to your ideas. If I had, we could've avoided the entire Rocky and CeCe Virus.
Rocky: Or the Hideko and Ichiro Virus!
Mr. Watanabe turns to Rocky.
Rocky: Just puttin' that back out there.
Mr. Watanabe walks up to Hideko and Ichiro. They give him a hug. Rocky and CeCe give a hug after them.

Tokyo Towers hotel bathroom.
Flynn: Hurry up, Henry. Toilet's been crying for like, an hour! She's already overflowed twice! And I am not getting the mop again.
Henry: Well, pardon me. If it's taking a few extra minutes to turn the remains of a highly intelligent, state-of-the-art, self-aware android into a...
Andy's head is mounted onto a faucet fixture.
Henry: Ta-da! Faucet.
Water flows out of Andy's mouth.
Andy: Toi-Toi! I am back, my love!
Toilet ("Toi-Toi"): Andy! Darling! It's you!
Flynn: Well, you couldn't get him in the Android Expo, but, maybe next year you could get him in the Plumbing Expo.
Andy: Ever heard the expression "four's a crowd"?
Flynn and Henry walk out, embarrassed.
***
Watanabe Center arena, where Watanabalooza is being held.
Crowd cheering.
Cut to backstage. CeCe and Rocky are anxious about performing.
Rocky: Oh, have you seen that crowd? I can't believe that 5,000 people are gonna watch me (angrily) throw up.
CeCe: Well, if you want, we can call Shelly and then she can give a hypnotic sessio-- you know what? You'll be fine. Just breathe.
Mr. Watanabe and Keiko walk up to the girls.
Mr. Watanabe: Rocky. CeCe. What are you doing here? You are not in this show.
Rocky lets out a sarcastic laugh.
Rocky: "Not in the show"? Well, that, that's hilarious.
Mr. Watanabe: No, really. You are not performing.
CeCe: What? But why? I mean, we're ready. We can do this.
Mr. Watanabe: Unfortunately, you are too closely associated with the virus. You are the number one most hated girls in Japan.
CeCe: So, what I'm hearing is, we're number one?
Mr. Watanabe: I'm sorry, girls. There is nothing more to be said. Keiko.
Mr. Watanabe and Keiko leave.
CeCe: So that's it! It's just not going to happen. The dream's dead.
Rocky: Really? After everything we've been through, we're this close, and you're giving up now?
CeCe: Well, what else can we do? Push someone off stage and take their place?
Rocky: Now, that sounds like the CeCe I know and love.
CeCe: We don't have our music.
Keiko enters.
Keiko: Leave all that to me. Just get ready.
Rocky: But-but, Keiko. You heard what Mr. Watanabe said.
Keiko: I was rude and insensitive to you, but still you stood up for me and got me rehired. You had my back, and now, I have yours. Go. Get ready.
CeCe and Rocky get onstage.
Audience.
Ty, Flynn, Henry, Georgia, and Michi get ready to watch. Ty props the tablet where he is talking to Deuce on on his leg.
Georgia: I'm so proud of my little girl.
Michi: And such great seats. Finally, something good has come from your visit.
Georgia and Michi give each other weird looks. Pause. They laugh.
Cut to Mr. Watanabe pointing to the stage.
Announcer: And now, put your hands together for the hottest boy band in all of Tokyo!
Backstage.
Keiko pushes the man doing the announcing. She snatches the microphone from him.
Keiko: But first, please welcome in their debut performance, Rocky and CeCe! (sarcastic laugh) So sorry, Mr. Watanabe. So sorry.
Cut to a shocked Mr. Watanabe.
Rocky and CeCe strut on to the stage.
The spotlights light up the girls. The crowd boos.
Cut to Ty, Flynn, Henry, Georgia, and Michi, looking nervous.
CeCe: They hate us, Rocky. They think of us as a virus. We shouldn't be doing this.
Rocky: CeCe, come on. At least we're getting booed in another country. It's not like we're gonna run into any of these people at Crusty's. Come on, CeCe. (strokes CeCe's arm) Get on board.
Performance.
"Made in Japan" by Bella Thorne and Zendaya starts. Rocky and CeCe start singing. They dance and perform into the night. When the in-stage doors opened near the end of the song, more dancers join in.
Performance ends.
The audience cheers, along with Ty, Flynn, Henry, Georgia, Michi, and Mr. Watanabe.
The audience cheers even louder. Rocky and CeCe raise their arms high, then hold hands up high. Scene freezes. Counter-clockwise spin to next scene.

Table with plant on top. Tablet where Ty talked to Deuce on is propped on the table.
Deuce: (from tablet) Hey, guys. So, you know, if you were wondering what I was doing while you guys were in Japan, y'know, just doin' my thing. You know, holding down the fort, if you will. (laughs) Uh, Dina's fine. You know... (pauses, looks confused) Hello? (freezes) Uh, hello? Ty? Ce-CeCe? Rocky? Anybody? Ty? I'm-I'm still here.
