Mr. Bricklebee, I have a question. Say you have this friend, yeah,
a friend . . . and they haven���t quite mastered their instrument?
BRICKLEBEE: (dropping his professional attitude and being more down to earth)
Listen, kid. I���m gonna be straight with you. If your ���friend��� (air

And that���s ���the word of the day.���

Um, Mr. Bricklebee, I think you���re forgetting that without the gifts
of our sound and tech people, no one could���

See me dance!
KID 2:
Or hear us sing!
MONIQUE:
That���s true! Regardless of how some of you are feeling right now,
(calling them out) Noah, Megan���we really do need each other!
There���s a parable in the Bible that might shed some light on this.

Sure thing! (takes out violin)
