Vinod, Ragoba, Jyoti, Kareena, and Dhraya were watching reruns of "Let's All Dance Until We're Sick: Canada," where they saw the champion for the current season and Dhraya's cousin, Aditi. Her parents came in with a fruit basket and some mango cupcakes they made themselves. "Oh, great," groaned Dhraya. "Cousin Aditi has Aunt Samarj and Uncle Chhotu."
"You left your family after your parents ditched you for your dance-champion cousin," Jyoti growled. "That beats me coming from a poor family, who couldn't take ignorant parents anymore."
"Like how I came from divorced parents and my mom keeps avoiding me for her new boyfriend whom I hate, deeply, " Ragoba replied. "And let's not forget Jyoti's parents, got arrested for stealing charity money for a homeless shelter."
"Enough nostalgia!" shouted Vinod. "We need to help Jeiva get human fear."
Just then, a bunch of puffins barged in and took some of their homemade pizza. "Hands off the pizza, you birdbrains!" shouted Jyoti.
"Jyoti, wait," interjected Vinod. "I got an idea."

Meanwhile, Peggy was coming out of an apartment where she was babysitting the owner's kids. "$30," said Peggy. "This is enough to pay for new shoes, for Esme."
After the owner's closed the door, Peggy saw four familiar Irish people wearing LADUWS t-shirts come in. "Amela O'Boyle, Zoey MacQueen, Jackson Dolan, and Samuel Fitzgerald?" asked Peggy. "Haven't seen them in ages."
They were arriving near Daph and Chloe's apartment, which was nearby.
In their theater-themed apartment, she saw Daph greeting his old friends, who were visiting America. "Cousin Peg," said Daph, "you remember my old friends from my Irish college."
"I'm surprised," said Peggy. "What are you four doing here?"
"My dad is the new host of 'Let's All Dance Until We're Sick: Ireland'," Amela explained.
"Weston O'Boyle," recalled Peggy. "What happened to Ashton O'Hearn?"
"Got fired for constantly showing up late," answered Amela.
"Not only are we part of the costume department," said Zoey, "but we're also international talent scouts for LADUWS: Ireland."
"You know," Peggy said, "you should get some of the kids from our summer show. They would love to see people from LADUWS: Ireland."
"Brilliant, Lass," Daph replied.

Later at rehearsal, Peggy was showing the four talent scouts. Everyone was pleased by this, especially Rochelle, who developed a crush on Jackson. "Roch," said Lara, "didn't your parents say not to flirt with visiting talent scouts/reporters?"
But Rochelle didn't listen. She just barged up to Jackson and ignored her two friends. "Looks like Rochelle got the biggest scoop of her life," whispered Isadora. "And by scoop, I mean news scoop. If it was ice cream, she would break out in a rash. We all know she's lactose-intolerant and can't have dairy."
Rochelle tried to get Jackson to like her, but he was too busy showing the dancers the wonders of the costume department. Amela did hair, Zoey did accessories, Jackson did costumes, and Samuel did makeup.
Outside the dressing rooms, Matt was teaching Mahi some new guitar riffs. "What are you doing here?" asked Principal McLean. "This is closed for rehearsal. Plus I got some talent scouts from Ireland coming over for a new season of LADUWS. I hate that show, but Mrs. Dean and Ms. Vandom suggested it was good advertisement for anyone visiting from Europe."
"Principal McLean," explained Matt, "Will told me that you guys needed real musicians."
"That's a relief," Principal McLean replied, "Because DJs are disrespectful and pull off unsafe laser light shows. You should see the videos with DJ Rocket."
After they packed away their guitars, Matt left to meet the other backup musicians. By the door, she saw Colby and Alton talking about Rayne. "Listen, dudes," she said. "You both may be attracted to my adoptive sister, but she needs to take time to see whom she loves. So, no competing."
Colby and Alton gulped in terror.

Outside Hartfeld High, Vinod, Ragoba, Jyoti, Kareena, and Dhraya were summoning the Jeivan puffins with some lollipops they stole from the Pumpkin Pop candy shop. "I remember robbing Pumpkin Pop," said Kareena. "It's like stealing candy from a baby."
"I know," replied Vinod, "but we keep the lollipops while you birds wreck the place."
With disappointment, the Jeivan puffins started wrecking the gardens.
After PRIMA did the little behind-the-scenes bit, their rings started to glow. To avoid suspicion, they told to check out the new banner that the supervisor put up.
Outside, they saw the Jeivan puffins getting angry because they didn't get any lollipops. "You know lollipop isn't good for puffins," growled Addison.
"The little dances have exited, stage right," Vinod said.
"Looks like it's time for a good old dance-off," Peggy said.
Guardians Unite
After a little quintessence, water, fire, earth, and air power, it was time for their Guardian Angel form.
Guardian Angel
With a little Guardian Angel power, they trapped all the Jeivan puffins in a tornado of vines and leaves. This made the Ferociars start laughing at them. "This is how I felt when I got hurt during my time with them," Mahi growled. "Instead of helping me, they just make fun of me for no reason at all."
Addison and Peggy quickly teleported with the stolen candy from Pumpkin Pop back to the shop, so no one would suspect they went missing.
XxoxX
By the time they got back, all five girls removed the banner and saw that the Ferociars were missing. They knew only one thing about this: Lua Doi helped them escape, but that didn't matter now. All they needed to do is to get the banner up before Principal McLean found out.
At the door, Matt congradulated the girls on stopping the Jeivan puffins and returning the stolen lollipops. "You girls should get inside," he suggested. "Rochelle is going crazy for one of the talent agents."
"WHAT?!" asked PRIMA.
Inside the school, they saw Rochelle flirting with Jackson, much to Peggy's dismay. "Daph is not going to like this," Peggy groaned.
"So, Jackson," asked Rochelle, "are you going to DeForest Delectables? I have a friend who owns the shop."
"I'm sorry," Jackson replied, "but I don't like tea."
"Remember when you saw those Viewtube videos of 'Let's All Dance Until We're Sick: Vietnam'," Isadora recalled. "You especially love the Classical Movie Night where they showed stuff like 'Singing in the Rain', 'Gone with the Wind', 'Casablanca', and especially 'The Wizard of Oz'."
"'Singing in the Rain'," recalled Jackson. "My great grandmother met Debbie Reynolds when she came to Ireland."
"'Singing in the Rain'," growled Rochelle. "I know people compare me to Lina Lamont, but 1950s movies are lame. I'm going to dance to my 'Money! Money! Money!' song. Come, Sasha! Come, Lara!"
Sasha and Lara were thrilled that they got their friend back from the Irish talent scout.

Later at Covington Ice Cream, Mahi and Rayne were serving Peggy, Isadora, and Addison some ice cream. Peggy got strawberry with rainbow sprinkles, Isadora got marshmallow with peanut butter sauce, and Addison got coconut with cherries. On the LADUWS: Ireland blog "Top of the Tapping To Ya," they saw what Daph's friends thought of their dance program.
Hartfeld High's Summer Dance Program is a whale of a program.
Most of the dancers there were amazing as ice.

Daph and Chloe came in holding hands. After they got a chocolate milkshake to share. They caught up with Peggy and the others. "We got some good news and some bad news," Daph said.
"We always want good news first," replied Mahi as she finished cleaning up a table.
"The good news is," Daph replied, "my friends found the new talent for their next season of LADUWS: Ireland. Alivia Pilgrim and her salsa dancing and Adan Ott and his hop-hop dancing. There also going to be exchange students in Ireland, so they can be in the show."
"I should be their supervisor when it comes to surveying either middle or high school," Peggy suggested.
"And what's the bad news?" Mahi asked.
"Jackson got annoyed by Rochelle's flirty behavior," Daph answered. "He and the others decided not to let her compete in LADUWS: Ireland, ever."
"You did the right thing, Daph," replied Chloe as she took his hand.
PRIMA smiled when they looked into each other's eyes.
The End.
