Rocky: (voiceover) Previously on "Shake it Up: Made in Japan"...

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 on 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.

Shake It Up - Made in Japan Part 2 Transcript

Rocky: (voiceover) Previously on "Shake it Up: Made in Japan"...

Recap

***

Mr. Watanabe: We are the only multi-media company in Japan that does not have a dance video game project.

Keiko: What about "Shake it Up!"?


Gary Wilde: And 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.


Rocky: (angrily) I'm definitely afraid of flying.


Rocky: You're the hypnotist?

Shelly: Anytime CeCe strokes your arm and says "Get on board", you'll follow her lead.



Ty: I felt bad that he couldn't come, so I figured, this is the next best thing.

Henry: He's an android. His name is Andy...


Keiko: Welcome to Tokyo!


Flynn: This toilet actually talks.

Toilet: (female voice) Hello, young male American guest.


Mr. Watanabe: My grandchildren, Hideko and Ichiro.

Rocky: We're not gonna out-of-the-blue meet some music mogul who has the power to magically transform us into international superstars.

Hideko: He's not just successful in the video game industry. Watanabe Global is a multi-media empire.

Rocky: Suddenly I feel totes ridic.

Opening Credits

***

Tokyo Towers hotel, in Rocky and CeCe's hotel room.

CeCe: Itchy and Heidi are waiting. You'd think a private elevator would be faster.

Rocky: CeCe, it's not just for our suite, okay? There's a galaxy suite above us.

CeCe: So, it's reserved for aliens from other galaxies?

Rocky: Sure, CeCe, that's exactly what it's—

The elevator door opens to reveal Blue Man Group. CeCe and Rocky looked puzzled.

Rocky: ...for.

CeCe: I had to fly halfway across the world to be right, but it was so worth it.

Rocky and CeCe get in the elevator.


Performance.

Voice: Top, two, ready, go.

One of the members takes a clip from CeCe's hair.

In the performance, one of the members repeatedly presses an elevator button. The other taps on CeCe's hand and taps on the elevator railing. Music plays.

Elevator stops on a floor where a maid was by a cart with pillows. The third Blue Man Group member took out one of the pillows from the cart.

Elevator doors close.

The third member rips the pillow apart and feathers flew out everywhere. CeCe and Rocky were dancing along.

The elevator stops on another floor.

On that second floor, another maid has a vacuum. The third member, who is all covered up in feathers borrows the vacuum.


Performance ends.

***

The second member cleans off a feather from Rocky's shoulder. 

The first member lends the clip back to CeCe. 

CeCe and Rocky walk out of the elevator.


Ichiro: Hey, what took you guys so long?

Rocky: Oh, slow elevator.

Ichiro, Hideko, Rocky and CeCe walk out.

The third Blue Man Group member, still covered in feathers, glances at the view as the elevator doors close.

***

Performance venue.

Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, Blue Man Group!

Deuce: (from tablet) Hey, I can't see!

Ty props the tablet on Gunther's shoulder.


Performance.

Two of the members were tapping on light up giant balls. The third was playing on pipes. Music plays.

CeCe: Hey, those are the guys from the elevator! See? I told you people in Japan can become stars overnight!

Music plays.

Song Voice: It is time now to create the ultimate dance party. To take things over the top, you'll need to start shaking your rear end. 
Or as some people call it, your hind quarters, your backside. your buttocks, your hiney. Your keister, your tush. 
Your buns, your gluteous tote bag, your bubble pop, your medicine ball, your sonic boom, your sick biscuit. 
Your posterior, your subwoofer. your horn section, your monster truck. 
Your magneous, your ripe's work. 
The Outback, your cousin's apartment. 
Ladies and gentlemen, please stand up and release the mounds.


The gang dances in the audience.


Singer: It's a sugar, sugar muffin

Song Voice: The place where all the burritos go.

Singer: It's a sugar, sugar, star full

Song Voice: Tweedledee and Tweedledum.

Singers: Dance to the beat where the the DJ comes, dance on with your hands

Robotic Song Voice: Butts.

Robotic Singer: Come on keep it going, to the party, don't stop. Let's keep it going, to the party, don't stop. Come on keep it going, to the party, don't stop.

Voices: Use your bum to stir that soup, then shake it all around like Blue Man Group

The members bang on cylindrical drums. The drums filled with water and lit up different colors. As they banged on the drums, water splashes out.

Song Voice: Your dance captain, under the thunder. Gigantor, the stabilizer. Shake your carry-on luggage, the Bobbsey Twins, your growing personal following. 
Shake your boom wrecker, your quarter large, your briefcase, very large. 
Shake the flounder that's rounder than a giant quarter-pounder.
Shake, shake. Shake, shake, shake, that thang.


Performance ends.

The gang and the whole audience cheers.

Tokyo Towers hotel bathroom. 

After Flynn dries his hands, Andy walks in.

Andy: Flynn, your mother is looking for you.

Flynn: Oh, thanks.

Toilet: Who is this, tall, dark, and handsome droid?

Flynn: Uh, Toilet, meet Andy. Andy, meet Toilet.

Toilet: Pleased to meet you.

Andy: That flusher is all mine. And, might I say, your blue water really brings out the sparkle in your bowl.

Toilet: Oh, this old tank? You're going to make me flush.

(SFX: Toilet flushing)

Flynn: Mom! The toilet's in love with Andy!!

Flynn runs out.

***

Watanabe Studios.

Rocky, CeCe, Gunther, and Tinka are doing motion capture for the game. The song "Total Access" plays. The game switches to green screened clips of CeCe and Rocky.

Dance ends.

Keiko: Great job. We've got everything we need, I hope. So, on behalf of Watanabe Global, thank you, and enjoy the rest of your week in Tokyo.

Gary Wilde gets up from his seat. He takes off his jumpsuit to reveal a motion capture suit underneath. He goes to the stage.

Gary Wilde: Oh! My turn, my turn! Ah!


Mr. Watanabe enters the room to talk to Ichiro and Hideko.

Mr. Watanabe: We have discussed this. Keep quiet and learn!

Ichiro: But, G-Dad, if you listen, you'll be zowed by our swag-o-licious app!

Mr. Watanabe: I have no idea what you just said! Nor do I want to!

Hideko: We've created an app to help market your new dance video game to the youth of Japan.

Ichiro: It'll have Rocky and CeCe's avatars, and they'll dance to whatever music you play. People are gonna be all, "Konnichi-what-what?!". (crosses his arms in a cool fashion) It'll create buzz before the game comes out, G-Dad.

Mr. Watanabe: How many times do we have to tell you we have an entire marketing team? They deal with promotion. And don't call me G-Dad!

Hideko and Ichiro: (both bow) Yes, Grandfather.

Mr. Watanabe: (shouts) Sayonara!

Mr. Watanabe leaves.


Rocky and CeCe walk up to Ichiro and Hideko to talk to them.

Rocky: Hey, guys. Look, I'm sorry you got shut down. I thought your app was really cool.

Hideko tilts her head, approvingly.

CeCe: You know, you should really talk to him about this stuff when he's in a good mood. When exactly is your G-Dad in a G-mood?

Ichiro: He loves the karaoke club in Roppongi. Hey, he'll be there tonight.

CeCe: Listening to people sing, good to know.

Hideko: Yes. Maybe we should try to talk to him then.

Rocky: Or, why don't you just put the app online? Then when it's a big success, we'll have no choice but to be proud of you.

Ichiro: (points up and down at CeCe and Rocky) Great idea, playa. You in, H-Dog?

Hideko: Yes, I'm in, playa. (fist bumps Ichiro)

They both leave.

CeCe: Did you hear what they said?

Rocky: That they're gonna put the app online like I suggested?

CeCe: No, the important part. Mr. Watanabe's gonna be at the karaoke club tonight. We can go sing for him. He'll love us, I know it.

Rocky: Oh, CeCe, tonight, I was gonna go see a traditional Japanese dance performance at the Noh Theater.

CeCe: But, this could be our best chance to make this happen.

Rocky: CeCe, I'm gonna do what I wanna do, and you can't change my mind.

CeCe stares off into space.

Shelly: (in CeCe's thoughts) Trust me, it's fine.

CeCe: Yeah. I guess it is fine. (strokes Rocky's arm) Get on board, Rocky. Doesn't karaoke sound fun tonight?

Rocky: No, CeCe. the only place I'm going is... (pause, stares at CeCe) The only place I'm going is, uh...

CeCe stares convincingly.

CeCe: Karaoke?

Rocky: Yeah! Karaoke! We have to sing for Mr. Watanabe!

CeCe: Well, okay. Have it your way.

CeCe skips away.


***

At the "It's Karaoke Time" karaoke club.

Keiko: Whoa. What are you two doing here?

Rocky: We're here to sing for Mr. Watanabe and blow his socks off.

Keiko: Mr. Watanabe does not have his business socks on tonight. And the last thing he needs is two girls with dreams of pop stardom kissing his butt. Especially when one girl whose dreams of corporate stardom is already kissing his butt. If you'd like it, tough tofu. Sayonara.

Keiko leaves.

Rocky: The rope rolled off her kimono and died.

CeCe: Who cares? I'm gonna go ask that DJ if he'll let us go on next.

Rocky: CeCe, he's not gonna let you cut in front of everybody else.

CeCe: We'll see.

CeCe walks up to the DJ booth.

Rocky: And cue humiliating rejection in five, four, three, two...

CeCe gets on to the stage.

CeCe: Hi!

Rocky: ...one should never underestimate my best friend CeCe Jones.

CeCe: I'm CeCe-san, (points to Rocky) and that tall girl over there is my main samurai in crime, Rocky-chan.

Rocky waves sarcastically. She walks on to the stage.

Rocky: (clears throat) Um, um, um, what she means to say is, I'm Rocky and she's CeCe, and we're going to be singing "Same Heart", which is about two best friends. And if it weren't for my best friend, I probably wouldn't even be in Japan right now.

Rocky and CeCe hug each other.

CeCe: Aw. Bring it in.

Man from audience: Are you two gonna sing or what?


Performance.

Rocky and CeCe get up to the microphones. The song "The Same Heart" by Zendaya and Bella Thorne starts. Rocky and CeCe start singing.


Cut to Keiko and Mr. Watanabe looking at CeCe and Rocky singing.


Cut back to CeCe and Rocky singing.


Cut to Keiko and Mr. Watanabe.

Mr. Watanabe: Keiko, aren't they from our dance game?

Keiko: Oh, yes. Nobody 1 and Nobody 2.

Mr. Watanabe: There is something about them that I like. They have such spirit.

Keiko: (points) Oh, those girls! Yes, I love them.


Cut back to CeCe and Rocky singing. The audience dances along.


Performance ends.

The audience cheers.

Keiko and Mr. Watanabe walk up to the girls.

Rocky: Rocky, CeCe, girlfriends, besties.

Mr. Watanabe: I am very, very impressed with you girls. I see great potential. And I would like to work with both of you.

Rocky and CeCe gasp in awe.

Mr. Watanabe: Keiko, draw up a talent deal.

Keiko and Mr. Watanabe walk away.

CeCe: Did you hear that, Rocky? We are going to be...

CeCe and Rocky: (excitedly) Singing toothbrushes!

They dance with the microphones in excitement.

CeCe and Rocky: (singing excitedly) We're gonna be the new toothbrushes! We're the singing toothbrushes!

***

Tokyo Towers hotel lobby.

Georgia is sitting at the lobby, waiting for someone.

Cut to a bellhop motioning a man to the area where Georgia is sitting.

The man walks to that area. Georgia gets up from her chair, waiting for the man to hug her.

Georgia: Michi?! Oh!

The man passes Georgia and walks to a woman. They walk off.

A woman walks up to Georgia. 

Georgia: Michi?

Michi: George?

Georgia tries to shake Michi's hand, only to find out that she bowed.

Georgia: Oh.

Georgia bows back.

Georgia: Actually it's Georgia. And I'm starting to believe that Michi is not Japanese for "Mitch".

Michi: I take it we both thought that we are going on a date.

Georgia and Michi laugh. They sit down on the chairs. Pause. They stare at each other in embarrassment.

Georgia: (shakes Michi's hand) Well, it was really great to meet you.

Michi: Yes, you too. And if there's anything you should ever need, just ask.

Georgia: Oh, right back at ya. (laughs) Well, see you soon, Mitch.

Michi: Yes, see you soon, George. 

They both laugh and walk in opposite directions.

Georgia and Michi: Yeah, right.

***

At an elegant sushi restaurant.

CeCe, Rocky, Mr. Watanabe, Keiko, Gary Wilde, Georgia, Ichiro, and Hideko are having dinner.

Keiko: Congratulations to the newest members of the Watanabe family.

Keiko and Mr. Watanabe clap. CeCe and Rocky are looking at contract papers.

CeCe: We will not let you down, Mr. Watanabe.

Rocky: We promise we'll work really hard.

Mr. Watanabe: Good. But now we don't talk about business. We enjoy our meal.

Georgia gets up from her chair.

Georgia: Uh, excuse me. I need to run to the little geishas' room.

Georgia leaves.

Gary Wilde: Just to clarify, you are paying for dinner? We're not going splitsies.

They all get confused.

Rocky: You know what would be really awesome right now? Something else we could celebrate. Right, Hideko?

Hideko: Okay, Grandfather. Ichiro and I have great news about the app. It's already got thousands of downloads.

Mr. Watanabe: I don't want to hear about that nonsense. 

Hideko puts Ichiro's hands down.

Mr. Watanabe: (looks at the menu) The only apps I'm interested in right now are these dumplings.

Rocky: But, Mr. Watanabe. They are really talented. You should take a look at what they came up with. It's awesome.

Ichiro puts his hands out. Hideko gives him a weird stare.

CeCe: He said he wasn't interested, Rocky.

Rocky: But, the app is perfect to promote the new video game. And, it features two of the newest members of the family.

Mr. Watanabe: My grandchildren should be concentrating on their studies. And if they were to learn about my business, they should quietly observe and not waste time with their silly pursuits.

Ichiro and Hideko both bow.

Rocky: Oh. You don't understand. It's not silly.

Mr. Watanabe: Excuse me?! Ha. I understood enough to build a international multi-media empire.

Rocky: Oh, no, no, no, no, you're confused. You see, what I meant was, they know the youth market because they're young, and you're... 

Mr. Watanabe: Old?! I'm old and confused?!

CeCe: Change the subject, Rocky. Get on board.

CeCe tries to stroke Rocky's arm, but Mr. Watanabe stops her. She tries to laugh it off.

Rocky: No, no, no, no, no, no. You're not old, you're just a little... stuck in your ways.

Mr. Watanabe slams his utensils on the table.

CeCe: Rocky, get on board! You're gonna ruin everything!

CeCe tries to stroke Rocky's arm by walking up to her, but Mr. Watanabe stops her after her arm touched his shoulder. She cleans his shoulder off.

Rocky: CeCe, I don't care. He's wrong. He should at least look at what they came up with. He's being completely unreasonable.

Mr. Watanabe: (angrily) That's it! I have heard enough.

CeCe: No, please, Mr. Watanabe. This is just a big misunderstanding. Rocky didn't mean to offend you, she was just trying to express herself.

Mr. Watanabe: Why, thank you, CeCe. 

CeCe giggles.

Mr. Watanabe: I see everything clearly now.

CeCe and Rocky laugh sarcastically.

Mr. Watanabe snatches the papers from CeCe and Rocky.

Mr. Watanabe rips the contract papers in half.

Mr. Watanabe: I will not work with either of you. And the "Shake it Up!" dance video game project is cancelled.

Keiko: But that is my project.

Mr. Watanabe: Good point. You're fired, too. Hideko, Ichiro, (shouts in Japanese).

Mr. Watanabe, Hideko, and Ichiro leave.

Gary Wilde: Mr. Watanabe, wait!

Gary Wilde tries to catch up to Mr. Watanabe and his grandchildren.

Georgia enters.

Georgia: Oh, sorry that took so long. I was having a conversation with the talking toilet. Turns out it was the lady in the stall next to me. So, what'd I miss?

Gary Wilde re-enters.

Gary Wilde: Okay, I've changed his mind. He's going to continue with the "Shake it Up!" video game.

Rocky: (sigh of relief) Oh, thank goodness.

Gary Wilde: Unfortunately you won't be in it. His one condition was that I fire you from "Shake it Up, Chicago!"

Rocky: What?

CeCe: No!

Gary Wilde: I'm sorry, girls. I don't have a choice.

CeCe: This is a nightmare.

Rocky: Could this possibly get any worse?

***

Tokyo Towers hotel room. Mr. Itou and Georgia enter.

Mr. Itou: Everyone gather!

CeCe, Rocky, Ty, Flynn, and Henry gathered by the stairs.

Mr. Itou: I have an important message from Mr. Watanabe.

Rocky: He changed his mind?

Mr. Itou: No, that's not it.

CeCe: We're not fired?

Mr. Itou: Oh, yes, that's it! Wait, no, it's not. Pack your things, you're being kicked out.

Flynn: Does that mean that you're not going to be our dedicated full-time concierge anymore?

Mr. Itou: Oh, who are you kidding? I was your butler.

Georgia: So, I'm guessing our private jet is...

Mr. Itou: Grounded. You need to find your own way home. Sayonara.

Mr. Itou leaves.

***

Tokyo Towers hotel room.

CeCe, Rocky, Ty, Flynn, Georgia, Henry, and Andy pack up. Andy walks off, while Ty talks to Deuce on his tablet.

Andy: "Toi-Toi"! My "Toi-Toi"! 

[NOTE: "Toi-Toi" is the name Andy gives to the talking toilet.]

Flynn: Oh, get over it!

Deuce: We're homeless in Japan! We're homeless in Japan!

Ty: (shakes tablet) Pull yourself together, man!

Rocky: This is a disaster. First we're kicked off "Shake it Up, Chicago!", now we have nowhere to stay.

CeCe: Yeah. I'm starting to wish "Shake it Up, Miami!" would've won that dance battle.

Georgia: Don't worry. I'll figure it out. And as far as where to stay, I think I have an idea.

***

Michi's house.

Michi: Georgia?

Georgia: Michi, hi! Hey, remember when you said if there was anything I ever needed? Well, I need a place to stay, but I promise, it's just for one night.

Michi: Yeah, technically, I was just following Japanese custom and being polite. I didn't really mean it.

Georgia: Oh, that's okay! I didn't really mean it when I said that it would just be for one night.

Michi groans.

Georgia: Come on, kids. Come on, let's go. Keep it moving.

Georgia calls on Rocky, CeCe, Ty, Flynn, Henry, and Andy to come in the house.

***

Watanabe Global building.

CeCe and Rocky wait in the lobby.

Rocky: CeCe, do you honestly think that Mr. Watanabe is gonna talk to us after what happened last night?

CeCe: Well, we have to try to change his mind. I mean, even if he doesn't want to make us pop stars, he at least could let us back on "Shake it Up, Chicago!".

Rocky: I know, but listen. Even if he doesn't, it's all right. It won't be the end of the world.

CeCe: It'd be the end of my world. I'm not you, Rocky. I'm not some genius who can be anything I want to if I set my mind to it! I'm a dancer! That is all I have!

Rocky: Don't sell yourself short, alright. You can be a lot of things. (pause) Okay, a few things. (pause, glances at CeCe) Okay, when we get back home, we're scheduling you an appointment with the guidance counselor.

CeCe: I'm just gonna go talk to him alone. 

CeCe leaves and puts her bag down on the chair. Rocky sits on the chair. A phone rings from CeCe's bag. She takes the phone out of the bag and answers it. 

Rocky: Hey, CeCe's phone.

Cut to the psychiatrist's office. Shelly answers the phone.

Shelly: Hello? CeCe Jones? This is Shelly Goldfeder.

Cut to the Watanabe lobby.

Rocky: No, no, no. I said CeCe's phone.

Cut to the psychiatrist's office.

Shelly: That's what I said. CeCe Jones. This is a very expensive call to you, so stop saying your name. I'm just checking to see how Rocky handled her fear of flying.

Cut to the Watanabe lobby.

Rocky: Oh, I'm good. I mean, she's good.

Shelly: (from phone) And how about that "having fun" thing?

Rocky: W-what are you talking about?

Cut to the psychiatrist's office. Shelly answers the phone.

Shelly: Oh, you know, the hypnotic suggestion I gave her. You stroke her arm, say "get on board".

Cut to the Watanabe lobby.

Rocky: "Get on board"?

Cut to the psychiatrist's office. Shelly answers the phone.

Shelly: Yeah. Is she going along with whatever you want when you do that?

Cut to the Watanabe lobby.

Rocky: Not anymore, she's not.

Rocky hangs up the phone. CeCe re-enters the lobby.

CeCe: Mr. Watanabe refused to see me! Have you ever been so upset you just don't even know what to say?

Rocky: Yeah. I think I can relate.

CeCe stares at Rocky.

Rocky: CeCe, we need to have a very serious discussion.

CeCe: Rocky, I'm really not in the mood for one of your "it's never going to happen" lectures. Because, the more I think about it, it's kind of funny how the person who kept saying "it's never going to happen" somehow found a way to make sure that it didn't happen.

CeCe walks off. Rocky catches up to her.

Rocky: What?

They stop.

CeCe: We were this close, Rocky. This close. But no, you had to go and insult Mr. Watanabe because you always have to be right. And this time, it cost us everything!

Rocky: Oh, really? So it's all my fault? If only I would've been able to "get on board".

CeCe glances at Rocky weird.

CeCe: Excuse me?

Rocky: You heard me. Don't you want me to, (strokes CeCe's arm) get on board?

CeCe: (mumbles) I have no idea what you are talking about.

Rocky: Oh, really? Shelly called.

CeCe: Hmm. Don't think I know a Shelly.

Rocky: Hmm, 'cause you were in the room with her while she hypnotized me.

CeCe: Oh. That Shelly.

Rocky: I cannot believe you. You are so selfish and manipulative that you won't even let me have my own thoughts anymore.

CeCe: Okay, I crossed a line. But it was her idea and I only used it one time. I could've done it way more than that!

Rocky: Really? That's your excuse that you only messed with my mind one time?! 

CeCe: Okay, fine, I admit it. I was wrong. But I did it for us. I did it for our dream!

Rocky: Our dream? Don't you mean, your dream? (takes out the memory book from her bag) Let's just take a look at this memory book. (flips through pages) A napkin from the karaoke club. (flips through pages) A picture of you at the rehearsal studio. (flips through pages) A receipt for your "signing a talent deal" dress! This was supposed to be my book! And there is nothing in here that is important to me!

CeCe: Well, what about what's important to us? We're supposed to be partners! And a partner is supposed to push you to do your best, not constantly tell you that you're wasting your time!

Rocky: Well, maybe we just shouldn't be partners! 

CeCe: Oh, so we're gonna fight and, you're what? You're just gonna quit dancing?

Rocky: No. I'm gonna keep dancing. I just won't be doing it with you anymore. 

CeCe: (voice breaks) What are you talking about?

Rocky: Let me just put this in a way that you might understand. (puts bag on her shoulder) I've become a supporting character in "The CeCe Show" instead of starring in "The Rocky Show", and I'm done. 

Rocky walks out.

A businessman with a ponytail enters the lobby, dancing. He shows CeCe the "Shake it Up!" dance app.

Businessman: Hey, it's you. You're dancing on my phone right now. So where is your dancing friend?

CeCe: (saddened) Yeah. I don't think she's my friend anymore.

CeCe walks out.


***

CeCe: (voiceover) Next on "Shake it Up: Made in Japan"...

Summary:

***

Mr. Watanabe: I have given you a second chance. You two will perform. 5,000 people will be in attendance.


Michi: (frustrated) Georgia. One of your kids broke my computer. It's completely frozen, and it happened right after I downloaded that stupid dancing app!

Ty: Rocky and CeCe gave us a virus.


Ichiro: The whole world could catch the Rocky and CeCe Virus!


Mr. Watanabe: You are not performing.

CeCe: What?

Mr. Watanabe: You are too closely associated with the virus. You are the number one most hated girls in Japan.
