The day after the crew was out partying at the Milk.

Its Saturday Morning..Its Cias dance studio. She is just got done with a private session. When Maria, Bette, and Tina brought the kids in for an audition.

Welcome to my studio. Cia replied.
Thank you for inviting us here. Tina said.
Maria was staring at the person who just left..Wasnt that ..Maria replied.
Cia replied.Yes it was she is going to be starting her tour in two months so she has been practicing here.
How cool. Maria said. Do you get a lot of celebrities in here?
Cia pointed at the wallHere are some of the ones I have worked with or toured with.
Wow that is a huge assortment. Bette added. Very impressive.
Thank you..It takes a lot of hard work and perfect timing. Cia added.
So about the girlsI will put on a cd and they can just dance. We are looking for kids with just natural poise and attitude. Cia explained as she turned on the stereo.
Come on Bryanna.. Anna Bella said as she danced around and did somersaults
Bryanna imitated whatever Anna Bella did.

The have some very natural expressions.I love it when people can make a comment without saying anything. Cia added.
Just then the door from outside opened. It was Joseph and Stella.
Excuse me for a moment. Cia said as she walked over to Stella.
Stella was very maintenance, she was the head of a major studio and she didnt let you forget it.

Stella you look fabulous Cia said as she tried flattering her.
Thank you darling. Stella said as she handed her raincoat to Joseph to hold.
Where is your office? Stella asked Cia.
Follow me Cia said Can I get you some coffee or juice?
No we cant stay long. Stella said as her and Cia entered Cias office and shut the door.

Bette and Tina, I have a confession to make. Maria said as she looked guilty of something.
What is it Maria? Bette said
You can tell us when we get home Tina added.
No I need to tell you know. Maria emphasized.
Joseph and I were in on having Cia show up at the pier. Maria stated
There was no contest or anything. We were just trying to get you guys to let the kids act in the movie Stella is producing. Maria said.
Maria I thought I was clear about I didnt want Anna Bella in acting. Bette said in a mad tone.
I knowIm so sorry! Maria said. That is why I had to tell you before it went any further.
Just then Bryan walked into the studio.
Oh *****! Joseph said as he hid his face from Bryan.
Maria you have to tell him too. Tina whispered in her hear.
Tell me what? Bryan said with a questionable look in his eyes.
Bryan the audition and everything was fake.I was just trying to get you and them to let the girls act in Stellas new movie. If they acted in the movie.Joseph would get his partif not he wouldnt. Maria explained.
What? Maria why did you do this? Why did you go behind my back and your sisters?
Is Joseph more important? Bryan said
Maria got tears in her eyes and didnt say anything as she looked down at the ground.
Where is he? Bryan said. As he looked around for him.
Joseph had snuck into the closet.
I swear when I get my hands on him! Bryan said.
Bryan it was my fault not his.I should have stopped it before it got started.
I was wrong. Maria said as she reached for Bryan but he just pushed her away.
Come on.Bryanna. Bryan said.
But daddy Im dancing. Maria said as she watched herself in the mirror.
Come on baby Bryan calmly said as he picked up her things and carried her to his truck.

Bryan ignored her and while he put Bryanna into her car seat.
Maria jumped in his truck.Come on Bryan

Bryan opened her door and repeated Maria get outdont make a seen.

Bryan and Bette drove off.
Tina gathered Anna Bellas things together.

Nothey have so much potential. Cia added.
I was hoping to cast them. Stella added.

Mama? What about the audition? Anna Bella said.
Oh Mommy is going to explain that to you when we get home. Tina added.

Later that day Dana is trying to get a hold of Cia on the telephone. The only thing she keeps getting is Cias voicemail.

Cia is out to lunch with Alice.
The are on the outside patio eating.
Wow so you are going to run a full story on my studio and who I have worked with?
Cia said with a huge smile. Im so use to being in the background.
Yes but we have to have release forms signed but the celebrities. Alice explained as she was looking through pictures of Cia and her various gigs.

Dana her condo..pacing the floor.
So would you like to come back to my office and I can show you the various layouts I would like to use. Also I can give you the additional release forms you need. Alice says.
Sure that would be nice. Cia said.

The next scene Alice and Cia are getting closer and closer together..They are getting ready to make out when..

Bette, Bryan, and Tina are sitting at the table glaring at Maria who is in tears.
I know I put Joseph in front of my family.I am so sorry.I know you guys can hate me now! Maria said as she leaves the house and gets into her SUV. She squeals away from the house and on to Pacific Coast Highway.

You know I am getting a little sick of her drama acts! Bette said as she stood up.
Me too.I meanusing Bryanna to help get Joseph a job! Give me a breakif he cant get one on his own.he needs to give it upMy 3 year old is not his agent! Bryan said.
I know.Bryan. Tina saidI know she was just trying to help a friend.

Who would take care of her while your working? Tina added.
I would move in with my mom. Bryan said.

The scene ends with Maria walking into a bar and ordering a drink.
