Austin & Ally (2011–2016): Season 1, Episode 7 - Managers & Meatballs - full transcript

Austin gets seduced by top music manager Demonica Dixon who wants to get rid of Ally as his songwriter, Trish as his manager, and Dez as his music video director, and bring in her own team, all with the promise that he'll get a chance to perform along Times Square on New Year's Eve.

All right, it's time for our
weekly team Austin meeting.

Trish is late as usual,

So I'll just call the
meeting to order.

Man, I love gaveling.

Guess who got a job
at it's a racquet?

The tennis store?

Why would they hire you?
You stink at tennis.

You're right. But I
don't stink at this.

Hey, don't do that to my friend.

Without doing it to me too!

Guys, come on, turn that off.



Ally.

Oh sorry. All right,

First order.

Progress report.

I just finished a
great new song.

- Austin. - I came up with

some sweet new dance moves.

Love it. Dez, what's up
with our next video?

I don't want to
give too much away,

But I'm going to
need a helicopter,

A giraffe and a red pen.

No, no and here.

Trish, manager report...
whatcha got?

Well, you know,



I've got some music
stuff in the works,

Some video stuff.

And a bunch of other stuff too.

Wow, that's a lot of stuff.

What about the Miami
jam-a-thon next weekend?

- Have you booked me yet?
- I'm working on it, I swear.

Okay, great. Now time to
read Austin's fan emails.

"turn the tennis ball
launcher back on"?

Dez, did you write this?

No.

Austin moon, just the
man I'm looking for.

I saw your last Webcast online.

And I think you're
going to be a star.

Awesome!

Who are you?

Demonica Dixon.

Rihanna? Great.

Make that eight.

How'd you like to be nine?

I kind of like being 15

'cause when I was nine
I had chicken pox.

I mean I want to represent you.

Whoa whoa. I am
Austin's manager.

Slow your roll, lady.

Yeah, please obey the speed
limit on your roll, lady.

Miss Dixon.

We're happy with
our friend Trish.

Oh how sweet,

You're represented
by your friend.

But it's called "show business,"

Not "show friendness."
ooh, write that down.

Is "friendness" two words?

Not you, Dez.

The point is, if I'm
Austin's manager,

He'll be one of the
biggest stars on earth.

Visual aid.

Wow, that would
make me so happy.

Visual aid.

Austin, ignore her.
She's clearly all talk.

If she was any kind
of real manager,

She'd be wooing you over
a fancy gourmet lunch.

Oh, you mean like this? Lunch!

What, no music?

Music!

Hate to break it
to you, demonica,

But you can't be
having lunch here.

Ally has a strict
no-eating-in-the-store rule.

- Right, Ally?
- Hmm?

Thanks, demonica. I've ever had.
St meal.

Mine's a little tough.

You're supposed to take the
meat out of the Shell.

Oh.

Mmm. Much better.

So, Austin, what do you say?

Ready to sign with
team demonica?

I have team Austin.

Ally writes the songs, Dez directs
the videos and Trish manages us.

Yeah, nice try,

But it takes a lot more
than a fancy lunch.

And some background music
to impress Austin.

Check it out! They turned
my leftovers into a swan!

Austin, let me make
this easier for you.

What's your wildest dream?

That's easy. I'm being chased
through a candy cane forest.

By a viking, my grandma
and a peanut vendor.

They're throwing
cantaloupes at me.

Then it gets weird.

Career. I think she meant
your wildest career dream.

Oh.

Well, ever since I was a
kid, I've always wanted.

To perform in Times
Square on new year's eve.

If you perform there, it means
you've totally made it.

And if you let me manage
you, I can make that happen.

You really think you
can buy Austin.

With a crazy promise
and some lobster?

Can you believe this lady, Ally?

Hmm?

Think about it, Austin.
I can change your life.

Dramatic exit!

There's something wrong
with this cupcake.

You have to take the paper off.

Oh.

Mm, no, that's not it.

♪ You're the bright
side of every day ♪

♪ me without you just
isn't the same. ♪.

Another great song, Ally.

Thanks. I can't wait
to hear you sing it.

When Trish books you
at the jam-a-thon.

If Trish books me
at the jam-a-thon.

What? Demonica would have
snapped her fingers.

And I'd be jammin' all
over that 'thon right now.

Don't tell me you're even
considering changing managers.

I don't know.

Hey guys.

I've been thinking
about demonica Dixon,

That finger-snapping,
bluetooth-wearing, puppy-hating thief!

How do you know she
hates puppies?

I don't. I just
needed a third thing.

Anyway, she made me realize

I needed to step up
my game, so I did.

I booked you at the
Miami jam-a-thon.

That's awesome! I
never doubted you.

And to celebrate, we're going to have a
fancy lunch with some background music.

- Thanks, Trish.
- No, not him.

That's my guy.

I don't know what he's doing.

♪ I'm eatin' pizza, I...
I'm eatin' pizza ♪

♪ I... I'm eatin' pizza ♪

♪ pizza. ♪.

Hi, we're here to check
in for the jam-a-thon.

My client Austin
moon is performing.

He was supposed to
perform at 1:00.

It's 4:00 now.

What? There must be a mistake.

Can he still sing anyway?

Of course. Just not here.

Try the bathroom. It's
got lovely acoustics.

I can't believe this.

Trish, you said I was
supposed to perform at 4:00.

Because you were. And I can prove
it because I wrote it on a napkin.

No, that's my
homework assignment.

I must have written
it somewhere else.

What's that on your hand?

That's my work schedule.
I don't need that.

You wrote something
on my back today.

- That just says you're a bozo.
- Oh.

Well, if it isn't team Austin.

I thought you were supposed
to go on three hours ago.

Trish mixed up the
times, so we were late.

- Now I can't perform.
- I didn't mix anything up.

These things wouldn't happen
if I were your manager.

Maybe you take being his manager
a little too lightly, Trish.

That's ridiculous.
Right, Austin?

Well, sometimes you are a little
late to our team Austin meetings.

That's not true.

I showed up 30 minutes early
for our meeting on Wednesday.

The meeting was Tuesday.

Ally, back me up here.

Trish just has her own style.

She is not that disorganized.

What is that on your elbow?

Oh, that's just
Trish's grocery list.

Apparently she needs
milk, eggs and paper.

Austin, don't you think it's
time you sign with someone.

Who will take your
career more seriously?

- I guess.
- Great. Let's shake on it.

Shake!

Oh!

Do you think she's really mad?

Hey, Ally.

What's wrong? You're
cleaning like a maniac.

No, I'm not.

I just can't stop thinking
about firing Trish.

I clean when I'm upset.

- Trish!
- Ally.

So you're still mad at us.

Why would I be mad? Just
because my best friend.

Stabbed me in the back.

And fired me from the
only job I ever liked?

See, Ally? She's fine.

Yeah, my life's great.

I got a new job at
meatballas restaurant.

"we got game and unlimited
breadsticks, fool!"

And I'm managing a new client.

- Who?
- Him.

That's a person? I
just polished him.

Statue guy's the next big thing
in stationary performance.

Now if you'll excuse me,

I've got some big managing
stuff in the works.

C'mon, statue guy.

Told you he was good.

Client stealer.

I'd insult you back,

But you have meatballs
on your head.

Do I need to?

Great, we're all here.

- Now we can start the team Austin meeting.
- Chair!

She thinks that guy's a chair.

I still feel bad about Trish,

But at least there's one thing
that always makes me happy.

Sweetie, let me handle that.

Gavel!

Man, I love gaveling.

Gaveling's my thing.

Progress report. Ally?

Ooh, I have a great new song.

Fantastic. I'll
listen to that later.

Dez?

I've got a cool video idea.

It's inspired by my
favorite Spike Stevens.

He's the best video
director in the business.

That gives me a great idea.

Spike? Demonica.

How'd you like to direct.

My new client Austin
moon's next video?

Fantastic.

You just got the
best video director.

In the business. You're welcome.

Cool exit!

No way!

Spike Stevens is gonna
direct my next video!

That's so awesome! Happy dance!

Happy dance! Happy dance!

Happy dance!

Wait a minute.

I think you just talked
yourself out of the job.

Aw, sad dance.

You're really upset, huh?

Is it that obvious?

Well, you frowny-faced
all your pancakes.

I'm really bummed about Dez.

Dez is easygoing.

I'm sure he's gotten
over it by now.

I'll never get over this.

See? He's fine.

You guys want to eat with us?

Can't. We're having lunch
with my new client.

Dez, thanks again for suggesting
spike Stevens. Brilliant.

I listened to your song.

Awesome! I didn't like it.

Not awesome.

So here's what I did.

I hired a team of
experienced songwriters.

And we're going to take
Austin to the next level.

But Ally's my partner.

Look, I want you singing
a professional song.

In front of the whole world.

When you play Times
Square on new year's eve.

Visual aid!

What?! I'm playing
Times Square?!

You hired me to make your
dream come true and I did.

We're announcing it at a big
press conference tomorrow.

Triumphant exit.

Congratulations.

Ally, I'm so sorry.

It's okay, I get it.

Playing Times Square
is your dream.

Looks like I'm one of you now.

Are you gonna eat that?

I can't believe I just played
Times Square on new year's eve!

And the best part is I got to live out
my dream with my three best friends.

Thank you, Austin.

I didn't know you felt
that way about us.

Ah! This must be a nightmare!

No-o-o-o!

Oh cool. Peanuts.

No-o-o-o-o!

- What are you doing?
- Directing statue guy's first video.

Okay, you're standing there.
Keep standing, keep standing.

You're still standing.
Still standing.

This is gonna be the
most boring video ever.

You're not going to believe
what I found in the trash...

The mp3 player I gave demonica.

She never even
listened to my song!

I'm starting to think she's
kind of a bad person.

Guys, I've been made a fool of!

It's okay, we've gotten
used to the meatball hat.

No, I'm talking about demonica!

She was behind the
jam-a-thon mix-up.

She had her assistant
pose as me on the phone.

Show her.

Hello?

Miami jam-a-thon promoter?
This is Trish.

I'd like to change
Austin moon's set time.

See?

That doesn't sound
anything like you.

Guys, I made a huge mistake!

I shouldn't have let
demonica fire you.

What happened? What made
you change your mind?

I had the worst nightmare.

I was playing new year's
eve without you guys.

And I was out of peanuts.

But mostly the new
year's eve thing.

Well, I'm glad you're back.

You're never gonna believe what
we found out about demonica.

She threw away my song without
even listening to it.

And she sabotaged your jam-a-thon
gig to make me look bad.

And she broke the
keyboard on the wall,

And put it back up there to make it
look like nothing happened to it.

Dez?

Fine, I broke it!

But she's still a
very bad person.

Well, I have a way to show demonica
that I don't need her anymore.

And I have a way
to show demonica.

That she messed with
the wrong people.

Team Austin is back.

Yeah, I don't want to be
famous without my friends.

Thanks, Austin. We missed you.

Welcome back, buddy.

I guess we're hugging.

And hug over.

Thank you for coming.

From the moment I laid
eyes on Austin moon

I knew that, with my guidance,

He would become a superstar.

Together we are going to kick butt.
Visual aid!

Now to say a few words,
my newest client,

Austin moon.

It's always been my dream
to perform in Times Square,

But I've realized that if
you're living your dream.

Without your friends, it's
more like a nightmare.

What are you talking about?

I have team Austin and this is
what we can do without you.

That song was written
by my partner Ally,

The video was shot by
my best friend Dez

And the whole thing was put
together by my manager Trish.

- Come on up here, guys.
- I'm good right here.

Your manager Trish?
I'm your manager.

Not anymore. You're fired.

In your face, finger-snapper!

You're going to
regret letting me go.

And you're gonna regret
wearing a nice outfit.

- Why?
- Sweet sweet revenge.

Meatballs.

Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!

Blah!

Boo!

Man, you're good.

Sorry I was late.

I was doing it won't
ever happen again.

Oh, I've heard that before.

Trish, you're fired.

Come on kids, let's go.
