Chapter 37: Getting Ready
As everyone was preparing the show, Buster grabbed Rosita's space helmet.
"Here, Rosita. It's your role," Buster said as he held it out to her.
Rosita took it and hugged it before going to get ready.
"Miss Crawly, let's see if we can get us a new green alien," Buster replied.
"Yes, sir, Mr. Moon, sir," Miss Crawly responded.
Meanwhile, Porsha was crying in her room when Miss Crawly showed up at her window.
"Rise and shine, sweetheart!" Miss Crawly shouted, making Porsha yelp.
Miss Crawly then brought her in, where she was greeted with applause.
"Hey! You made it!" Buster said.
"Yeah, well, uh, maybe I overreacted a little before," Porsha admitted.
"A little? You were, like, a total drama queen back there," Gunter remarked.
"I think we get it, Gunter," Jamie said.
"Yeah, okay, we're all good now," Buster added.
"Wow, my dad's gonna flip when he finds out about us," Porsha commented.
"Well, we're safe for now, but listen, let's--" Buster began.
"'Safe'?" Porsha asked, scoffed, then replied, "Uh, no. None of us are safe."
"Mr. Moon, I know someone who can protect us," Johnny mentioned.
He looked at Jamie, who smiled since she knew who he was talking about.
Back in Caltonia, Marcus picked up his phone when Johnny called.
"Right. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah. Protection? Say no more, son. We're on our way," Marcus assured.
Marcus, Stan, and Barry then got in their new truck for community service and left for Redshore.
At Crystal's house, he was getting ready for bed when he opened his bedroom door a bit.
"Good night, Porsha," he called.
No response.
"All right, be that way. I don't care," Crystal remarked, shut the door, then mumbled, "Spoiled little brat."
Then Ash, Rosita, Jamie, who were all in costume, Porsha, and Buster headed for the stage.
"All right, time to get us an audience," Buster said.
"Wait. Moon, as soon as you start inviting folks in here, hotel security will just shut us down, right?" Ash pointed out.
"Oh, it's okay. Rosita and Jamie have that covered," Buster answered.
Rosita and Jamie nodded when Rosita's phone beeped and they answered.
"Norman, release the piglets," they both said in the phone.
And at that, Norman let the piglets go on the 17th floor from the elevator and they ran like crazy around the place. Others tried to stop them, but the piglets knew how to get around it. Norman just watched as this went on.
"All security, we have a situation on floor 17. Repeat, all security to floor 17," the buffet host called.
"This is the best day of my life, Daddy! Whoo!" Casper shouted before dodging a security guard in the chocolate fountain.
"Repeat, everybody to floor 17!" the buffet host repeated.
As security ran out, Buster came on the screen up close, getting everyone's attention.
"Wait, uh, is it on?" Buster asked.
"Yes, it's on now," Miss Crawly answered.
"Oh, now?" he wondered.
"Yes, now," she said.
"Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes. Before I blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, yeah, okay," Buster replied as he backed up, cleared his throat, then announced, "Good evening. Uh, my name is Buster Moon, and it is my great pleasure to present to you, for one night only in the Crystal Tower Theater..."
Someone then called to Crystal's office.
"Mr. Crystal's office. This is Jerry speaking," Jerry answered.
"...a brand-new show called Out of This World. A musical space odyssey featuring the return of the legendary Clay Calloway. That's right, Clay Calloway," Buster continued.
And with that, everyone started piling into the theatre.
"And what's more, this show is completely free, so step right up, folks, and take your seats. The journey of a lifetime is about to begin," Buster finished and the camera was off.
