After getting the instruments, Luz and the others prepared to play them. Eda helps them in preparations.
Amity: Okay. We made it.
King: Instruments at the ready!
Eda: Okay, on the beat. A-one, a-two, a-three, a-four, a-five, a-six...
Luz: Wait! Hey, can't you make it three?
Eda: Fine. All right. On the beat of three... A-one, a-two, a-three...

As they began playing heir song, all of Pepperland became alive with the sound of music. All across Pepperland, the people were freed from their condition and began to rise up against the Blue Meanies. The sound of the music terrified the Blue Meanies. Using the power of music, Eda and the others wreck havoc on the Blue Meanies. Pepperland ceased to be the dull and colorless landscape created by the Blue Meanies. Almost instantly, the Blue Meanies were sent running away. As the music echoed across Pepperland, the now freed people of Pepperland cheered for Luz and her friends. Meanwhile, the Blue Meanies regrouped with their leader. The Chief Blue Meanie speaks to Max.
Chief Blue Meanie: Ah! The hills are alive.....
Max: With the sound of music....
The Chief Blue Meanie then punches Max which knocks him back several feet. Max is knocked into Jeremy who was tied to a ball and chain with his mouth covered. The Chief Blue Meanie cackles and throws a fit as he screams.
Chief Blue Meanie: Who is responsible for this?
Max: Rimsky Korsakov?
The Chief Blue Meanie then shoots Max with a pistol, reducing him to dust. A Blue Meanie then jumps on Max's ashes and stomps on them. Max then reforms with burns and scratches.
Max: Guy Lombardo?
The Chief Blue Meanie cackles as he grabs the ball holding Jeremy and tosses him around.
Chief Blue Meanie: My dear friend... let us not forget that heaven is blue. Tomorrow, the world! Bring in my Bluebird.
As the Chief Blue Meanie says this, the people of Pepperland become scared, wondering what the Bluebird was. Luz and the others look up to the sky and see the Flying Glove.
Willow: That doesn't look good....
As the Flying Glove flies through the air, he approaches the Chief Blue Meanie who pets him.
Chief Blue Meanie: Ah! Here you are, my little Glovey-dovey. Go get thee hence and destroy yon upstarts. Smash them! Squash them! Crash them! Oblue-terate them!
The Chief Blue Meanie cackles uncontrollably as he collapses to the ground. A Blue Meanie Doctor then runs up to the Chief Blue Meanie with a bottle and a spoon.
Blue Meanie Doctor: Here, your Blueness, have some nasty medicine.
The Blue Meanie Doctor feeds the Chief Blue Meanie the medicine. The Chief Blue Meanie jumps up as he cackles even louder.
Chief Blue Meanie: The Glove, the Glove, the Glove!
As the Flying Glove takes off, the people of Pepperland become even more frightened. As Luz and the others prepare, the Flying Glove could be seen flying above them. A smirk falls onn Eda's face.
Eda: I got this.
Eda then jumps off the bandstand and confronts the Flying Glove.

As the music plays, Eda twirls Owlbert around while the Flying Glove charges at her. Eda then smacks the Flying Glove away with Owlbert. She then forms a giant sign of the word "Love." The Flying Glove smashes through the sign, but get's his finger stuck in the o. When the Flying Glove shakes the o off, the Flying Glove lashes out at Eda and launches himself at her. The Flying Glove manages to grab her, but when he looks, she's gone. The Flying Glove looks around to see Eda standing on a tree.
Eda: Over here, Glovey!
The Flying Glove becomes enraged as he charges at Eda once more. Without losing a beat, Eda continues to dance around the Flying Glove's attacks. Soon enough, Raine joins in much to Eda's enjoyment. The two play a song together as they press the attack against the Flying Glove. Luz and the others play along to the song Eda and Raine were playing. Soon enough, all of Pepperland joined in. Eventually, the Flying Glove runs away.
King: Go, Glove! Lovely glove!
Luz: You took the words out of my mouth!
Willow: Hey guys! Watch this!
Willow jumps down, but is practically floating down. Everyone watches in awe as they join Willow.
Gus: How did you do that?!
Willow: It's all in the mind, you know.
As the music echoes across Pepperland, everyone is revived in Pepperland. The sound of music and joy could now be heard throughout the land as the Blue Meanies were sent running.
Luz: We're doing it! We're actually doing it!
Eda: Ha! Look at em run! Like a couple of big blue babies!
Raine: We're not done yet! They'll be back! They won't go out quietly!
Eda: Then we'll play louder!
The crowd cheers for Luz and her friends. But as the people of Pepperland are revived, the Blue Meanies are already preparing for a counter attack. During this, Luz spots a large glass bubble.
Luz: Hey guys! Look at this!
As Luz and the others crowd around the bubble, they all become curious.
Gus: Hey, that's a funny place to leave a goldfish bowl.
Willow: In Pepperland, all things are possible.
As everyone checks out the bowl, Amity knocks on it. She could hear faint music and see people inside.
Amity: There's something inside!
Luz: It looks like four people.
Willow: What are they doing there?
Eda: Not having a ball, that's for sure. It looks like they might be Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Luz: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band? Maybe they can help us!
Eda: Then let's bust them out!
With that, Luz and her friends had now found Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band. Now it was time to free them.
