How We Tried to Crash a Party

1
When will the time be the right time ♪
What up, Bloomies?
As you can probably tell
by all the candles,
white linen and whale sounds,
we're at a super-fancy spa right now.
We've had a crazy week
with the Music Icon Awards and all,
so this is the perfect place to unwind.
Also fun fact, whale sounds
make me very sleepy.
This spa actually has special significance
in Electric Bloom history.
One of our wildest high school adventures
brought us here.
So instead of picking
an Ask Us Anything today,
we wanna tell that story.
Tulip, wanna start?
[snoring]
-Tulip!
-One of our wildest
high school adventures brought us here.
Yup. we know.
That's the story we're about to tell.
Oh, cool. You guys need me or can I just--
We got it.
It all started on a day that turned
into one of the most
memorable nights of our lives.
Attention, please.
I have an announcement
about Student Appreciation Week
that I have to make
whether I want to or not.
The Buzzy is giving away
three free tickets
for a surprise mystery fun night to
whoever gets to the counter first, so--
I did it! I'm first!
Woo-hoo, Pose! Mystery night for us!
Man, she hears announcements
like a dog whistle.
Looks like we have a winner.
A new student, I'm guessing?
It's Posey.
We know each other from, like, every day.
Also, I have a few quick questions.
Um, at what point
will the mystery be revealed?
Also, when you say "mystery night,"
do you mean "night" or "early evening?"
Also, will it be indoors or outdoors?
Like, do I need to wear layers--
I don't do questions.
I'm just gonna give the prize to Joey.
Seriously?
That's another question.
I'm sure it wasn't anything great.
Joey, enjoy those
three tickets to Lady Gaga
and free dinner at La Fromage Y Queso.
Yes! Gaga!
Whoo!
Posey! We love Lady Gaga!
And restaurants
with multicultural cheeses!
I'm sorry. I love a surprise.
I just like to know what the surprise is
before I get surprised so
I can make my surprise face.
Maybe you need to be a little
more spontaneous. Go with the flow.
Yes! You need
a "Go with the Flow Day," Posey!
A whole day where you embrace
every exciting opportunity
the universe presents to you.
-That sounds--
-Incredible?
-Liberating?
-Absolutely horrible.
Also, I can so go with the flow.
Look. One of my shoes is untied,
but I can be chill about it.
I can leave it untied for as long as--
I could have died.
Okay, maybe I could go
with the flow a little more.
-Yes!
-Wait for it.
-I do have a few questions though.
-There she is.
When you say "day,"
is this a typical 24-hour situation or--
Okay. No más preguntas, niña. Vámos.
[Electric Bloom singing]

[guitar playing]
When will the time be right time ♪
When will I see that look in your eyes ♪
Feels like
I've been waiting a lifetime ♪
When will the time be right time ♪
Ooh, I'm loving this new song.
Yeah. Look, Pose,
I know you had to go through
some pain and drama
with Lucas to get inspired,
but totally worth it
for a new song, right?
[laughs] Was it?
Also, did you guys notice
how I missed a note and just kept going?
That's why they call me,
"Go with the Flow-sey."
Yeah, but you stopped playing
during the bridge to retie your shoes.
I could have died!
[cell phone ringing]
Janine's calling me?
She's never called me.
Then why do you have
her number in your phone?
What, you guys haven't
entered every number
from the school directory
into your phone?
-No.
-You have a problem.
[Janine] OMG. Did you hear
about the party tonight?
It's at Ava Bradley's house.
She's a senior
who just transferred to our school,
and we're like really good friends.
I mean, I barely know her,
but we're pretty close.
Also, we're enemies in a fun way.
And get this. Her mom is
Stephanie Bradley, the music producer.
Wait. Stephanie Bradley?
Oh, my gosh! Thank you for telling us.
Yeah, it's so cool you would invite us.
Wait, Posey? I meant
to call my friend, Priya.
I must have pressed Posey by accident.
I have the entire school directory
saved on my phone.
See?
Man, Priya is gonna laugh
so hard when I tell her this.
Actually, she had gossip
yesterday and didn't tell me
so I'm not gonna tell her.
I'm gonna tell her.
A party at Stephanie Bradley's house?
She's like a big-time music producer.
And her last name
is Bradley Cooper's first name.
Your thing is probably more
relevant to us than my thing.
We have to go to that party.
But we don't know the address.
Quick, call her back! Call her back!
[sighs]
[groans]
She's not picking up.
Oh, well, fun while it lasted.
Back to the music.
Five, six, seven, eight.
Oh. I'm not holding my guitar. [chuckles]
Nice try, Pose.
Here's what we're gonna do.
Find that party, sneak in,
play our new song.
Stephanie Bradley will hear it, love it,
and we'll record our first album tonight.
I'm in. Great plan, Jade.
To be clear, that's not really a plan.
It's more like a list of unrealistic
things you hope will happen.
Posey, might I remind you
this is your go-with-the-flow day?
So I just go along with the plan
no matter how illogical, impractical,
or potentially dangerous it is?
She's in!
Great, 'cause I just found
Ava Bradley's social.
Cool! DM her.
Oh, good idea, Posey.
"Hey, cool new senior.
It's me, a rando freshman.
Can you please write me back,
even though you have no idea who I am?"
You're coming off really desperate.
Oh! She's at a spa in Hoboken right now.
We'll just go there and say to her face,
"Hey, cool new senior.
It's me, a rando freshman.
Can you please invite us to your party?"
No notes!
-I'll text Rhonda.
-Yes!
Wait. Who's Rhonda?
Oh. She's a driver
my family uses sometimes.
We actually have credit with her
because she took us
to a wrong airport one time.
And by one time, I mean a lot.
Awesome. Book Rhonda.
Already did!
Very cool. We got Rhonda,
a party at Ava's,
Janine called us.
Let's just flow right on out of here
and add some more names to the mix.
Attagirl, Posey, Let's party.
-[phone chimes]
-Oh. Just got an alert.
Rhonda's on her way.
To the airport.
What is she doing?
Classic Rhonda.
So, while we waited for Rhonda,
The Vince and Lucas were about to embark
on an adventure of their own
after what I'm sure
was a very cool handshake.
Uh! Come on.
Oh, yeah.
[both grunting]
[both] Three!
[both grunting]
By the way, I got a hot tip
on some upcoming cultural events
if you're looking to take Shelly Sharp out
for a sophisticated night on the town.
How do you feel about bouncy houses?
They're my second favorite kind of house.
-What's your first favorite?
-Igloos.
Also, Shelly and I
aren't together anymore.
What? How did I not know that?
I'm kidding. I'm The Vince.
Of course, I knew that.
You didn't know, did you?
Hey, I'm a one-man operation.
Give me a break.
So, you obviously ended things with Shelly
because you like Posey
and she likes you, right?
What? Posey likes me?
Yeah, she came back
to tell you at the dance.
I figured you knew.
Pretty much everyone at the school does.
Even I knew. Although the name of the girl
in the story escapes me.
Well, wait. If Posey actually likes me,
then I have to tell her
I like her back. Like, now.
Never mix romance with technology.
It diminishes the power
of the human heart.
I think you broke my phone.
Look at me, Lucas. You've got to tell
Posey how you feel in person.
You're right. I just need
to find out where she is.
Leave that to me.
I'll use every resource at my disposal.
[Posey] Hey, The Vince. I can't talk.
We're at that fancy spa in Hoboken.
She's at that fancy spa in Hoboken.
[upbeat music playing]
Hi. We're looking for someone
named Ava Bradley.
-Is she here?
-No.
Maybe yes. You don't get to know.
Oh, really? Well, maybe
this will help.
A punch card for a free froyo topping?
Still no, but I'm keeping this.
I'm getting raisins.
Lots of raisins.
-[Posey and Jade] Ew.
-Yum.
We just need to get in for one second.
Can we make an appointment?
An appointment day of?
In a spa of this caliber?
You make me laugh.
Well, you heard the woman. We tried.
She's very scary.
Let's just go with the flow on home now.
Look, we can't give up that easily.
We're not. I got this.
Tulip, we tried. It didn't work.
I'm sorry. Did I say "I" got this?
I meant Trixie's got this.
You just carry that around with you, or--
You want me to go through your bag
and see what's weird?
You were saying?
Now step back, doll face.
Trixie, Trixie, Trixie.
Ingrid. Bubby.
I have no appointment but Trixie
does not need an appointment.
Trixie is an appointment.
You catch my drift?
No, not really.
Oh, you will.
You're gonna catch it good. Like a cold.
Now pick up that appointment book
and pencil me in.
I thought you said Trixie
does not need an appointment.
Don't be obtuse.
Give me that book! Give it here!
[both grunting]
That's it! I want you girls out of my spa.
And I don't ever want to see
your faces in here again!
Oh, you won't see our faces
-What? What?
-What? Nothing. We have to go.
So then I said, "You're asking
if I want the essential oils?"
[chuckles] "Dahling, they don't call them
essential for nothing!"
[fake laughing]
All right. We're in.
We don't have much time.
-Let's fan out and find Ava Bradley!
-Okay.
[gasps]
Mr. The Vince. It's been a while.
Hey, Ingrid. Great to see you.
How are your roommates?
Still cats.
Do you two know each other?
Self-care is a big part
of The Vince's life.
We're looking for three girls.
Have you seen them?
Could you be more specific?
Sure. At first, you wouldn't think
they had anything in common.
But eventually,
you'll discover their differences
are what make them stronger.
Oh, yes, them.
I just kicked them out.
-What?
-Don't worry, we'll find them.
But, you know, while we're here,
you can get a facial
so when you see Posey,
your skin has a subtle glow.
I do like a glow.
Ingrid, I'll take my usual room.
Two cucumber waters, hold the cucumber.
Isn't that just water?
Hey, man, can I talk to you for a sec?
Don't embarrass me in front of my friend.
[mouths] Sorry.
Excuse us.
Hi. Is Ava Bradley in here?
No? Okay. Sorry to bother you.
Whatever you're doing, keep it up.
You look radiant.
She's not down here.
Not down here either.
Those were the last rooms.
She must have already left.
So we basically wasted two hours
slathering our faces in mud,
sneaking past a scary receptionist,
and giving away your free froyo topping.
Which, by the way, when are we gonna
circle back to the raisins?
-You're done?
-I'll do the rest in my head.
[Ingrid] Goodbye, Ms. Bradley. Thank you.
Miss Bradley. Do you think it's her?
[Ingrid] Have a fun party tonight.
Tell your mother,
Stephanie Bradley, I said hi.
It's her. Go, go, go!
[comical music playing]
Follow that car, Rhonda.
This is turning out to be
a much crazier night than I expected.
Tell me about it.
Um
Who are you?
Oh, I'm Peg.
Like leg, with a "P!" [chuckles]
[both] We got the wrong Tulip!
[pop music playing]
You see? This is what happens
when you go with the flow!
One minute, you're trying
to go to a party.
Before you know it,
you're grabbing random women from spas
and ruining their nights, too!
Oh, you're not ruining my night.
This is honestly the best day of my life.
Not helping, Peg!
Look, we can't lose Ava Bradley!
I'm calling Tulip to keep her posted
on where we're going.
Oh, she's probably worried sick.
[snoring]
I'll leave a message.
Tulip, there's been a mix-up.
I'll explain later.
New plan. Ava Bradley
is pulling up to Modern Vintage.
We're going in to talk to her.
Or, and I'm just spitballing here,
we go home and don't do that.
But, like, we can get wild
and have Rhonda take surface streets.
I'm so go-with-the-flow.
Just meet us at the thrift store.
Hey, I'm Peg. I'm part of this now.
Well?
You were right. I can actually feel
the toxins leaving my body.
Wait till you try the sea salt scrub.
It's heaven.
[Tulip] Hey, Jade. Got your message.
I'll meet you and Posey at Modern Vintage.
That was Tulip. She's meeting Posey.
-Let's go.
-But I didn't get my scalp massage.
-Good?
-You can honestly work here.
[upbeat music playing]
Ava Bradley! Ava Bradley! Oh.
And you're not Ava Bradley.
As you were.
We must have followed the wrong car.
First, Tulip. Now this guy?
Man, we are terrible
at recognizing people from the back.
That was our only way to get her address.
Give me your phone. I'll call Janine.
Maybe she'll pick up.
[phone vibrates]
-Hello?
-Janine. Are you at the party?
I so am.
And I'm using
the upstairs bathroom to call people
and tell them what they're missing out on
so they can feel jelly
and I can feel better about myself.
Okay, Janine, listen.
-[knock at door]
-Oh, hold on. One second.
OMG, it's you!
[whispers] I don't know who it is.
This party's so epic, right?
Sorry, you have to use
the bathroom downstairs.
I'm on the phone with someone.
[whispers] I don't know who it is.
Okay. Where were we?
Janine, we need
the address to that party, like right now.
Okay. Yeah, totally.
It's super-easy to remember.
It's 1221 Willow Drive.
1221 Willow Drive. Okay, thank you.
Or is it 2112 Willow Drive?
Or is it Willow Place? Willow Avenue?
Is it Riverside Way?
Just hurry up and get here already. Bye!
At least we kind of have an address.
Do we, Jade?
Does a brain surgeon say,
"I don't know. Just kind of cut here?"
There you are. What'd I miss?
We found Ava Bradley.
-Yeah, you did.
-But it turned out
it wasn't actually Ava Bradley.
I probably would've led with that part.
Next time. And sorry
we left you at the spa.
We thought we were grabbing you but it was
really some random lady named Peg.
Like leg? With a "P?"
Exactly!
Whoa, Peg, love the new look.
Thanks.
I can tell by the aroma
that a lot of people have worn these.
[gasps] You must be Tulip.
Heard so much about you.
Oh, man. This is so embarrassing.
I know nothing about you.
Want to go grab like a tea
or something and get into it?
I do love a good chai, but I can't.
Your friends' go-with-the-flow philosophy
has changed my life.
When I woke up this morning,
I was a top investment banker
on Wall Street. Seven figures.
But life led me on a journey
and I decided to embrace it.
I work here now!
She seems fun.
Come on. We gotta go. We have the address!
-Kinda.
-Good enough for me!
See ya, Peg! We'll have tea later.
Love you, bye!
Welcome to Modern Vintage.
Are we looking for anything special today?
Actually, yes. Three girls.
-Could you be more specific?
-Of course.
They're sort of a mismatched trio
with a fun and unlikely origin story.
Yes! They aggressively
friended me and changed my life.
In a good way!
They just left.
They're going to a big party.
Must be Ava Bradley's party.
I'll work my sources and find the address.
But you know, while we're here,
maybe we get you a cool vintage suit
so you look super-classy
when you see Posey.
What are your shoulders, like an 86? A 27?
I don't know how this thing works.
I'm new here. I'm Peg!
After the thrift store,
we drove around for over an hour
checking all the possible
address combinations
based on the vague info Janine gave us.
Unfortunately, none of the addresses
were the actual party.
[Jade] They were a costume shop.
[Posey] A French patisserie.
[Tulip] And an animal rescue sanctuary.
So we drove around a little more,
and eventually we did make it
to the right address.
But there was this mean man in a box
who didn't want to let us in.
[buzzing]
[man] Security. Can I help you?
You need to let us in. Like, now.
Like now, now, now, now.
[man] Okay, slow down.
Do you have the gate code?
-Gate code? We don't--
-1234!
Is it 1234?
[man] It was. Changed it yesterday. Sorry.
Okay, but you don't understand.
We have to get to Ava Bradley's party.
And before you ask,
I'm out of froyo punch cards!
[man] Oh, man. I would have
let you in if you had one.
Seriously?
[man] No. Anyway,
I can't let you through without a code.
And there's no other way in
unless you go down Emergency Room Hill.
Emer--
Emergency Room Hill?
[man] They call it that
because anybody who goes that way
usually ends up in the emergency room.
Or worse.
Anyhoo, have a good night.
Oh! And be careful backing up.
You don't wanna bump into
that rack of scooters there.
-Scooters, eh?
-What?
-What?
-What?
Nothing, we gotta go.
[suspenseful music playing]
Wow. It does seem quite a bit steeper
-once you're up here, doesn't it?
-It does. It does indeed.
[cell phone ringing]
It's Janine.
Hey, Priya, you gotta get to this party.
It's so fun.
Also, this band is so good. Listen.
-[rock music playing]
-[crowd cheering]
OMG, they stopped.
Now there's no music and they say
they're taking a 20-minute break.
-[door closes]
-Can you imagine?
No live music for 20 minutes.
If you know anyone in a band,
tell them to get here
and they could, like, totally play
for Stephanie Bradley.
Only if they get here
in the next 20 minutes.
See ya, Priya!
Guys, the stars have aligned.
She just gave us all the info we need.
We should just go to that party right--
Oh, yeah. The big scary hill.
[suspenseful music playing]
So there we were, at the top
of Emergency Room Hill.
The band at the party was on a break.
This was our shot.
Then Jade said the words
I'd always dreamed she'd say.
Posey, you were right.
[sighs] Let's just tell
that part of the story one more time.
Posey, you were right.
This is a bad plan.
Going with the flow
is dangerous and irresponsible.
Yeah, I wanna ride down there
but I also like being alive.
So
Let's go with alive.
Let's just go back the way we came
and go on home.
-No.
-What?
We're not going anywhere
except down that hill.
To quote Jade, "What?"
Look, I didn't spend the entire night
stepping outside
of my comfort zone to fail.
Not when we're this close,
not when our destiny's waiting for us
at the bottom of this
unfortunately named hill.
Stephanie Bradley has launched
some of the biggest names in music.
Are we gonna be one of them
or are we gonna play it safe?
Who's with me?
Hands in.
Let's ride.
[rock music playing]
[screaming]
[screaming]
[screaming]
Whoo!
We didn't make it.
To the party or the bottom of the hill.
We're lucky we're alive.
And even though I still like plans
and question things from time to time,
my friends were right.
Going with the flow
can lead to the unexpected.
And in this case, the unexpected
was one of the best nights of our lives.
[all laughing]
You should have seen your face
when you were going down the hill.
It was like [screams]
Me? You were like [screams]
Okay. Do my face, do my face.
-[both screaming]
-[giggles]
[cell phone ringing]
Oh, shh. Peg's calling.
Wait, Peg has your number?
Yeah, we bonded very quickly.
What up, P-Money?
Chillin', T-Dawg!
Listen, I know this is last minute,
but we're having an all-night sale
at Modern Vintage.
How would you guys
like to come right now and perform?
Really? Is it cool with the owner?
It's cool with the new owner.
Me. I own this place now!
-Wow.
-Go, Peg.
That happened very fast.
Thanks for asking us to perform, Peg,
but it's kind of late.
For people who don't go with the flow.
[all cheering]
Uh, so is that a yes?
[all] Yes!
Wish I could find a way ♪
To find out what you're feeling ♪
Wish I could read your mind ♪
So I'd know what you're thinking ♪
It's always the same ♪
Just a guessing game ♪

[Posey] By the way,
we didn't know it then,
but it turns out that
even though we didn't
make it to the party that night,
a certain someone did.
Oh, um, Janine,
do you know where Posey is?
I have something I need to tell her.
Oh, yeah. she was definitely here,
but she just left.
-She did?
-Yeah.
She was dancing all night with some guy.
It seemed like a real connection, too.
Like, I saw sparks.
There was a small kitchen fire,
but whatevs.
Those two are gonna
hard launch soon for sure.
Wait. Did I say Posey met a guy?
I meant Priya.
Oh, well. I'm sure it's not a big deal.
Sorry, man.
You really tried.
Thanks. I guess
it just wasn't the right time.
When will the time be the right time ♪
When will I see that look in your eyes ♪
Feels like

When will the time be the right time ♪
