Do you fancy quiche? More juice, band-wrecker? Janine, we've talked about this.
Okay? The band is not breaking up.
And yes, please.
I want to believe you, Nick.
I do.
But nothing makes sense anymore.
My whole world is spinning out of control.
Today's special is cinnamon French toast.
- Enjoy.
- Thank you.
Do you see why we have to stop this rumor? I mean, it's all the fans can talk about.
In fact we're doing a radio interview tomorrow to prove that the band is still together.
I dig your loyalty, your talent and your watch.
May I have it? - No! - Saucy.
A compromise then.
Record one song with me.
- One song? - I'm sure your brothers will allow you that.
- Okay, I can make my own decisions.
- Perfect.
We'll call it a side project.
We'll get you the best musicians.
I'll push you in a whole new artistic direction.
I'll even allow you to keep your little watch.
- Does that sound interesting to you, Nick? - Yeah! - Mace! - I'm sorry.
I'm just saying when he puts it like that, it doesn't sound so bad.
You protect me From sorrow And loneliness.
I want to stay, but I'm a ghost and my time here has passed.
I can't let you go.
Dade, we have to end So we can begin again.
No, come back! April! And cut! And that's a wrap on "Forever April.
" Whoo! What are you doing? Oh, the movie's over.
It's like graduation day - when you throw your cap.
- Yeah, pick it up.
Come here, my little stars.
- Oh.
- Yay.
Okay, hug over.
Joe, I'm sorry it didn't work out between us, but now that the movie's over, I would have been breaking up with you anyway.
It's probably just as well because Stella and I have made it official.

Oh no, don't make this about me.

Come here, I want to talk to you.
( Doorbell rings ) I'll get it.
- David Henrie.
- Kev-in.
- You're hugging me.
- Yes I am, buddy.
Is this another one of your lame TV shows? "David Henrie's awkward celebrity moments"? Okay look, I know I blamed you for something Joe did, but all is forgiven.
Shouldn't I be the one forgiving you? And I accept.
Here.
It's a movie script.
"Camp ninja.
" - Catchy.
- Very.
Wow, mace, so what do you think? I think Mantra really liked your watch.
Seriously.
I don't know what to do.
You're not breaking up the band.
It's just a side project.
One song.
Yeah, but is that what Kevin and Joe are gonna think? I'm sure they'll be cool.
I mean, probably.
Most likely.
Maybe.
They should.
- Unless they're not.
- Now that that's clear.
All right.
Bottom line, what is your heart telling you? - I think I want to do it.
- Yeah? Nick, Nick, Nick! Look, Janine, I know you're a big fan and I appreciate that, but I think it's time you found something else in your life besides Jonas.
Actually, Nick, you forgot your phone.
Thank you.
She put her number in.
Huh.
Not bad.
Nerdy guy goes to summer camp to train to be a ninja, falls in love with a samurai from the girls' camp.
It's a classic coming-of-age story.
- With kicking.
- With kicking.
I can see it on the poster now.
- Totally.
- Kevin, - I want you to direct.
- You better not be playing with me, because you know I take my directing very seriously.
Not at all! I saw the video you did for the band.
It was awesome! - Wow, thanks.
- No problem.
You have a great sense of style, you know how to tell a story and I know you'll work cheap.
- Oh, is it low budget? - Oh, not for me.
I'm the star.
But I promise you'll make practically nothing.
Oh, um It's a chance to do a movie I'm in! You're in excellent! I'm going to announce it on the site right now.
Actually wait! I should talk to the guys first.
Okay, sure.
Yeah, cool.
Talk to the guys.
I am pumped that you're involved.
- I can't believe I hated you 10 minutes ago.
- Me neither! - Bring it in, bro hug.
- All right.
Okay, wedgie.
Why? Just the Henrie way of saying welcome aboard.
Oh man.
Whoa, so you're making a sequel to "Forever April"? That's right, Joe.
"Forever April 2: Dawn of the Dade.
" I'm in the title? I mean, if I'm still in it.
- Am I still in it? - Sweetie baby, of course you're still in it.
Awesome.
Thanks, Mona.
- We're shooting in New Zealand too.
- New Zealand? - Mm-hmm.
- That's pretty far away.
April walks into the ocean, what do you think, she washes up on the Jersey Shore? Why not? Lots of things wash up there.
Well, April washes up in New Zealand.
So pack heavy because we're going to be there for a very long time.
( Sighs ) Listen, Mona, I can't just pack up and leave.
I've got the band, a new girlfriend.
And a career as a movie star.
You're welcome.
- See ya, blondie.
- Oh, Mona, I just want to say I really appreciate the opportunity to work on this film.
You took a big risk on a kid from Jersey Didn't I just say "see ya, blondie"? Thanks again! - Hi.
- Hey.
- So what did Mona have to say? - You know, typical Mona.

But word on the street is, Nick, you're doing a solo record with Mantra? - We just had breakfast.
- ( Buzzes ) - It was really nothing.
- ( Buzzes ) - You wouldn't believe how much quiche that guy can put away.
- ( Buzzes ) I don't know, Nick.
Something smells fishy.
Nick, just tell him you're not doing a record with Mantra.
- Well - O.

- Oh, this was perfect.
- Did you know about this? - Yes.
- Mace! - Sorry.
Marty: So, Kevin and Joe, are you two just gonna sit on your hands while Nick and Mantra make beautiful music together? ( "Wedding march" plays ) I'm not sitting on anything.
I actually have a side project of my own.
You're just saying you have a side project because I have a side project.
Oh really? Well, tell David Henrie, because I'm actually directing his next movie.
- What's going on here, guys? - Arrr, there be storm a-brewin'.
You said it, crusty old pirate.
( Lightning, rain pattering ) ( Wood creaking ) Okay, I definitely did not know about Kevin.
When you think about it, what do we know about Kevin? - You guys having fun yet? - ( Whip cracks ) Say, Joe, you've been awful quiet down there.
What's your big secret? - Secret? - Sure, secret.
Something you're hiding.
Secret? I don't have a secret.
Do I look like somebody who has a secret? That's really funny.
- Why don't you play the laughing guy, Marty? - ( Baby crying ) - What's he hiding? - I'm sure it's nothing.
- Sounds like something.
- We know you're hiding something, Joe.
- No, I'm not.
- You can tell he is.
He's all sweaty and red.
Yeah, like a big lying tomato.
Oooh, that's a good one.
I'm stealing that one.
A big lying tomato.
A big lying tomato.
Okay, it's "Madman Marty in the morning" here at 9:35 A.
M.
- Let's go to the phones.
- We didn't say we were taking calls.
Line one, it's Stella! Stella, what do you have to say to what's left of Jonas? Hi, Marty.
First-time caller, no-time listener.
- My question's for Joe.
- We can talk later.
Or we can talk now.
I vote now.
If you have something to say, just say it.
Yeah, Joe, just say it.
- Spill it, dude.
- Okay fine.
Mona offered me the starring role in the sequel to "Forever April.
" And it's shooting in New Zealand.
How long will you be gone? I don't know.
I guess A long time.
Stella! Stella, wait.
- ( Dial tone ) - I'm sorry, okay? I didn't know how to tell you.
Stella? Stella! Well, it's 9:38 in the A.
M.
here with "Madman Marty in the morning.
" I'd like to thank my guests today the band formerly known as Jonas.
And we'll be right back with the latest castaway from loser island, keep it locked on klop.
( Groans ) Really good interview, you guys.
Seriously, really good energy.
Yo, you think I could get like a souvenir? - Maybe like get me a guitar or something? - No.
No? Okay.
Well, so She's not picking up.
If I was still talking to you, I wouldn't pick up either.
Well, it's official.
Everyone on earth thinks Jonas is breaking up.
How could Joe not even mention to me that Mona offered him the sequel? Stella, he probably just didn't know how to tell you.
Yeah, I mean, how long did it take Nick to tell you about Mantra? Well, that's different.
I mean, we talked through it like we always do and then totally made the decision together.
And I am really not helping you.
Joe and I had one good day together, ugh.
- One stinking day.
- Hey! Some people don't even get that.
Okay, I'm shutting up.
Same old Joe.
I should have known it was too good to be true.
( Car honks ) - The guys are here.
- I can't deal with him right now.
- You two need to talk.
- Oh, Macy, just tell him that I'm washing my hair.
- Stella.
- Please? - Stella.
- Please? - Please.
- Okay fine.
- Thank you.
- ( Groans ) But you need to wash your hair for real because Nick and I never lie to each other.
I'm so sorry I'm making you feel worse.
I'm just gonna go.
I'll go.
Great job, guys.
You were supposed to go on the radio to stop the rumors.
- Nice job, Mr.
side project.
- Why don't you direct yourself to be quiet? - I need to talk to Stella.
- You can't.
- Why not? - Because she's washing her hair.
- I've heard that one before.
- No, for real.
- I'm not lying.
- She's not.
I can tell when she is.
- I wish we could tell when you were.
- Here's an idea: Why don't you start a band with David Henrie? How long is she gonna be washing her hair? - I - Not as long as you'll be in New Zealand.
- Back off, Kevin! - No, you back off, Joe.
- Why don't you both back off? - Hey! ( Rape whistle blares ) Wow, that whistle app really works.
Okay, here's the deal: If you all keep on acting like this, the band will really break up.
Now is that what you want? - No.
- No way.
- Not gonna happen.
- Okay.
Then we need to fix this.
Band meeting, march.
Oh you washed your hair again? Yeah, I had to.
Because Macy can't lie to Nick.
Never mind.
It's kind of unimportant.
Are you okay Stella-bell? - You were right, aunt Lisa.
- Oh honey.
I told you.
When you mix boiled vegetables with whole grains you get a little gassy.
No.
No, I meant about rock stars.
- What did he do? - Joe took a movie in New Zealand.
- ( Sighs ) - He didn't even tell me.
- This is all my fault.
- Why? Because I should have told you there's only one thing worse than dating a rock star.
- What's that? - Dating a movie star.
Okay, for every problem there's a solution.
First the problem.
Nick? - We're all yelling at each other.
- Okay, solution? - Stop yelling at each other! - Good.
Okay, next problem.
Joe.
- Everybody thinks the band's breaking up.
- Solution? We could play a gig for the fans so they could see we're staying together.
A private Jonas show how cool would that be? Okay, that's a really good idea, Joe.
It would put all the rumors to rest, but we'd have to do it pretty quick.
- Before things get worse.
- What about tonight? Tonight? You think we could pull that off? There's only one way to find out.
- Let's do it.
- Bring it in, guys.
No matter where we go, no matter what we do, the band comes first.
All: The band comes first.
- We don't have much time.
- I'm gonna check on Stella.
Her hair's gotta be dry by now.
I know hair.
And I will get the word out to the local fans.
Let's see "top secret Jonas show tonight.
- Details to come.
" - We gotta find a cool spot to play at.
I got that.
I know a friend who knows a friend.
- I'll make a phone call.
- ( Chimes ) - Oh.
- Kevin: Hey, man - Oh no.
- What? Hey, mace, where's Stella? She's not in the guest house.
Um, yeah.
I just got a text.
Joe She's gone.
- Gone where? - Aunt Lisa's driving her to the airport.
Stella's going home.
Next on "Jonas L.
A.
" - Anything from Stella? - No, she's not answering.
- She's gone dark.
She is off the grid.
- Macy, breathe.
Nick: Aunt Lisa is just taking Stella to the airport.
Listen to me.
If you get on that plane, you will lose any chance for you and Joe to be together.
- Please don't try to talk me out of this.
- I want you to think about it.
Are you sure this is how you want it to end? Is there ever a good way for it to end? That's it.
I've got to get to Stella before she gets on that plane.
