Luke sighed as Luna came into his room the next morning.
"I just want to sit here all day. I'm not going to rehearsals." Luke says.
"Okay." Luna says.
"I just feel like I'm never going to be good enough…." Luke says sadly. "Why rehearse at all?"
Luna feels bad for him and allows him to stay in his room.
Luan looks for Luke at the rehearsal stage. She doesn't see him.
"He's not coming." Luna says.
"Why?" Luan asked.
"He's feeling blue. Anyway, we're heading back home tomorrow." Luna says.
Luke is very sad and angry all at once. Lincoln came to check on him. Luke had torn a lot of his performance outfits apart and broke several flash drives that contained songs he would use to perform.
"Luke, what's the matter?" Lincoln asked.
"I'm not going to win! Oliver is! He's the better performer! I'm just a has-been!" He sobbed.
Soon, Lucy checks on Luke. Luke is still a stressed out and crying mess.
She hugged him.
"No pressure, okay?" Lucy says. "You're a wonderful performer, and you always give it your all."
Luke shivers, but manages a smile. She kissed his head.
"Want me to stay with you?" Lucy asked.
Luke nods, mentally broken and left out.
Meanwhile the others go to lunch without Luke.
"He's a wreck…" Luna says. "I'm so worried about him. He keeps doubting himself and getting anxious."
Leni nods.
"He keeps breaking things and tearing them apart….it honestly worries me to see him that way." Luan says. "He has a lot of potential, really."
"It's really sad…" Lynn says.
Ronnie Anne comes to see Luke and hears Lucy reading poems. Luke shivers and hisses at the predictions for the finals.
Lucy hugged him.
Luke reads some of the predictions.
Most said Luke was going to win, while some said Oliver. Luke throws the laptop across the room and sobs angrily.
Lucy holds him.
The next day the siblings were packing to go home. Luke was already on the bus as he had packed the night before. He was very stressed out and steamed up.
"You don't have to win." Ronnie Anne says.
Luke cries in response.
"Luke, who did this to you?" Charity asked. Luke just screams and throws his laptop again.
"Talk to me." she says.
"He wants to win, because I promised him a party if he wins." Lucy says.
"I thought Dr. Lopez said to stop?" Lincoln asked
"I want to, I don't care." Lucy says
"I thought you'd grow up." Lynn says
"I have. Why can't you let me do this for Luke? As a matter of fact, how come every time I try to make Luke happy, you ruin it?" Lucy says to her siblings.
Lucy gets on the bus and sits next to Luke. Luke is suffering mentally.
"I think you need someone to talk to, Luke. I know you hate explaining, but it's the only way for you to get better." Lucy says.
"Just talk to us." Leni says to Luke.
Luke just started talking. They hug him.
"I'm w-w-washed up! I'm a h-h-has-b-been! Oliver is better than me, and everyone loves him more!" Luke sobs.
"Okay, he needs to stop this. This has been hurting him. If he goes out there, he'll mentally shatter worse." Lisa says.
"We know that HE has been getting in Luke's head. That pretty boy…." Lincoln says.
"Um, who are you talking about?" Leni asked.
Luan looks at Leni. "OLIVER!" She shouts.
Leni looks ashamed and goes to Lori, who holds Leni.
"Luan, leave Leni alone." Lori says.
"So, Lincoln, are you bisexual?" Lisa asked. "You seem attached to Oliver." she says
"No!" Lincoln says.
As the trip went on, Lucy was holding Luke.
"Lucy, maybe you should give him to his mom or Luna." Haiku said.
Lucy sighed and walked Luke to Charity.
Meanwhile with Oliver, he was listening to music.
"Hey, Oliver?" Stella asked.
Oliver looks at Stella. "Yes?" He says.
"You're staying in Royal Woods, right? Because I heard you're heading to Greendale after this." she says.
Oliver thinks. "No, I'm going to Greendale because that's where my mom wants to stay mainly because my dad wants that. I blame my so-called brothers." he says, fuming with anger.
"Do you secretly care for your brothers?" Stella asked.
He fumes with even more anger.
"Everything okay back there?" Skylia asked.
Oliver grits his teeth. "Everything. Is. FINE!" Oliver hisses.
Skylia sighed. "After this, I think we should celebrate back at Greendale. What do you think, Oliver, a party for you! I'll let you decorate your room and your cake…" she says.
"A party…that sounds nice…" Oliver says. He then feels angrier inside, as he knew they all went and forgot this day now more than ever before.
Oliver punched Brandy in the arm.
"Oliver, what's wrong?" Savannah asked as Randy also punched Brandy in the arm.
Meanwhile with Luke, he shakes and cries.
Garrett hugged him. "Oliver did this to you?" He asked.
"Oliver got in his head mentally." Luna says.
"Oh, Oliver…now that Luke isn't around, happy half-birthday!" Skylia says as everyone clapped and cheered
Oliver sniffs and looks at everyone. Stella kissed him and handed him a gift. Oliver looks at the gift.
He opens it and sees a heart charm and blushes, smiling.
He opens Randy's gift to see new deluxe headphones as Brandy got him a new mic.
Oliver smiles as Savannah baked cookies.
Luke sniffed. "Hey, it's okay…" Luna says before calling Brandy
"Hey, Munchkin, how are you doing?" Luna asked.
"Fine…" he says
"Good." Luna said and hung up.
"He's okay." Luna says before hugging Luke.
Luke sniffed. "There is no birthday today, right?" He asked.
"No. Not on our bus." Luna says.
"What?!" Luke screams in fury
"Way to go, Luna…" Lynn groaned.
He sees pictures of Brandy and Randy treating Oliver well and the party was nice.
Luke sobbed. "My parties stink compared to his!" He sobbed. "I will never get my day again!"
Ronnie Anne holds him.
"See why I plan parties for Luke every month?" Lucy asked Charity.
"I do see, and I know you want him to be happy. But he feels unhappy because his special day will never come." Charity says.
Later, Luke feels his bladder filling up as Lynn was in the bathroom. He goes into the boys' bathroom, and does his business before sobbing hard.
Soon the bus stops as Skylia sees a Chuck E. Cheese restaurant.
"Perfect! Also, I'm surprised he ain't outta business." Bob says as they set some decorations up. Oliver smiled half-heartedly.
"Sorry, we can't do a full on party. This is the best we can do. Next year, it'll be bigger, unless we're on tour again." Skylia says.
"I understand…" Oliver says, just looking away, boiling inside.
Luke's bus passed them as Luke sobbed.
"It's all over the internet, his party is getting attention!" Luke sobbed.
"Who cares? When you perform, you'll steal the show!" Lola says.
"You got this!" Lana says.
Lucy and Luna nod. Luke just looks down, frowning.
Later, Luna sings to Luke. Luke sobs and hisses more.
"Luke will hate….Luke will hurt…." He says as he stares at more pictures.
"I'm in." Lola whispered to Luke, wanting to get back at Randy and his brothers.
Luke sniffed and sobbed, looking at Oliver eating his cake. "That will never be me again…" Luke says, sobbing harder.
Luna holds him.
"Maybe it would if I got more respect…" Lucy says.
Luke shuts himself away.
"Luke, please don't shut yourself away…" Leni says.
"Luke hates you all…Luke wants his old life back, where he got the attention and parties…" Luke sobbed.
They look down.
"Should we leave Luke? It seemed like his life was better without us screwing it up for him." Leni says.
"He just needs time right now." Charity says. "Too much is going on inside his mind and on the outside of his body."
"When are we going to get there?" Rocky asked.
"In 2 hours." Charity says, watching her son suffer from sadness.
"How can we help Luke? This hurts me." Lucy says.
"We'll think of something." Charity says.
Soon, they arrive in Royal Woods. Luke steps off the bus, still sad, but walks home.
The siblings look on. "I have a plan to help Luke win." Lisa says. Luke walks further away.
The siblings try to catch up "Luke, wait…" Lucy says
Chandler tripped Lincoln as Lucy just teleported to get to Luke.
"Chandler, not now." Lincoln says.
Lynn kicked Chandler in the nuts as he fell over.
Meanwhile Oliver's bus arrived.
"Okay, let's see…" Skylia says, thinking about where they would stay.
"I know, with Mama Luna." Angry Luigi suggests.
"With Stella " Oliver suggested.
"Oh, right, since I got adopted by Miss Huntington, I'd like to see my new room." Stella says.
"Good idea." Bill says.
They head to Huntington Manor.
Luke is hissing and throwing things around in his room. Jason tries to calm him down.
Charity sees Stella.
"Darling, you made it!" She says. "Oh, I have to show you your room!" She said as she took Stella up to her room.
Meanwhile, Oliver still has pent-up anger as he screams. "I hate them!" He sobbed.
Luke was sobbing too as Skylia went to hold Oliver. Bob was concerned.
"Oliver, what's wrong?" Skylia asked.
"YOU GUYS NEVER CARE ABOUT WHAT I WANT!" Oliver screamed.
"Oliver, honey, we tried our best…We really wanted to give you a nice day, but I'm not used to celebrating on the road." Skylia says.
"YOU'RE MAKING ME LEAVE STELLA!" Oliver cries.
"Oliver…it's not easy, okay? My life has been hell. I had to watch my sons split apart and nearly die, too. Plus I already set up your room there." Skylia says, tears in her eyes.
"And I got work." Bob says " Plus…never mind." he says, forgetting Brandy's name.
"I don't care what you've been through. I should be top priority and I wanna stay here in this manor. You should have asked ME what I thought before you brought up Greendale!" Oliver says, crying.
"What about your brothers? They should have a say." Skylia says
"THEY'RE NOT MY BROTHERS! I NEVER LOVED THEM! YOU EVEN LEFT THEM YOURSELF ONCE! GET RID OF THEM ALREADY AND GROW A SPINE!" Oliver screamed.
"Okay, you wanna stay with Stella, then we'll stay. Whatever makes you happy." Skylia says.
Luna walked up to Luke and Oliver. "Calm down." she says as Luke sobbed.
"I'm washed up…." Luke sobbed.
"Oh, right….Oliver, Luke's been upset because of you." Lucy says
"Why can't I be happy for once?! Ugh!" Oliver screamed. Luke screamed louder.
Skylia noticed this as Alem tuber came up. "Hey, what's going on?" He asked.
Oliver slammed his door. "I just want to be a winner, and not a shadow! Is that so hard to ask?!"
Luke sobbed.
"Mom, what now?" Lucy asked Charity.
"Luke is just angry and needs time to be alone now." Charity says.
