Leni was buying gifts for Luke and Lucy on the 12th. Today was also part two of the ANH holiday special.
Penny got ready. Luke wasn't as mad at Shane or Penny anymore. But it still hurt him to see that Shane was a bigger musician than he was.
Luke was in Shane's trophy room, polishing his framed albums with a sad expression on his face. Shane watched him with pity.
Oliver got ready for the show with his family.
Kat and Ana were eating as Melony was still trying to get Garrett's trust, despite saving Penny and Lisa.
Lisa made a full recovery since that incident and was careful about who she'd trust from now on and wouldn't take her family for granted anymore.
With Luke, he was done polishing Shane's framed albums and was now polishing Shane's Grammy awards. He felt mad about becoming Shane's servant.
"Luke?" Lucy asked so confused on why he was being a servant.
Ann finds Luke. "Hey, Luke." she says.
"Hey, Ann." Luke says, sweeping Shane's trophy room.
"What the?! That's it!" Ann says, going to hunt Shane. But Shane had a look of pity on his face.
"How could you let this happen? You should make him stop." Ann says.
"Ann, stop!" Kali says.
"Luke, you can stop." Shane says. ""I'm sorry that I flaunted my awards and things in front of you and made you think you weren't enough."
Luke started crying as Lucy held him.
"Why did you make him your slave?" Sharon asked Shane.
"I just wanted to feel important…but I guess I hurt Luke to do so. Now I know what it feels like." Shane sniffed. "I'm sorry, Luke."
"It's okay. I know you don't need me on stage with you." Luke says.
Oliver was thinking of who to use for this part of the show.
He looks at Rachel. Then at Griffin.
"I choose Griffin." he says.
Luke got ready, knowing he was unneeded.
Angry Luigi was at Amber's birthday party, crossing his arms as he wanted to bail. It was clear he didn't want to be there.
With Mugman, he was excited to do a duet with Mona on tonight's show.
"I love the song we picked…' Mona says with a smile.
"Same." Mugman says. "I'm so excited for Luke's birthweek!"
"I know! Me, too!" Mona says.
"I heard Shane tried to make Luke his slave because of how much bigger he was in the way of stardom…" Mugman says.
Mona gasped. "That's awful!" She says as Mugman nodded in agreement.
Ann was filming Shane as he made Luke model his outfit for tonight.
Luke began to cry.
"P-Please…have mercy…" Luke cried.
"No, I need this, please." Shane says as Lucy kicks the door down.
"Shane!" she says running to Luke.
Penny slapped him. "How could you?!" Penny says.
"Say hello to the millions of fans you're about to lose because of this…" Ann says as Shane tries blasting her for ruining his fame, but Kali pulls her away.
"You had it coming." Melony says, holding a broom.
Sharon looked at her son, ashamed of what he did.
"Shane, you're grounded." Sharon says. She's never had to say this to him before, but now she had no choice.
He looks down and sees Penny walking out on him, looking down.
Penny ran home to her lab, sobbing. She noticed Ashley was there, but she was too upset to notice.
"Are you okay?" Red asked.
"I dated a guy who uses people as slaves…" Penny sobbed as Ashley hugged Penny, a rare feat for Ashley to initiate. Dr. Crygor saw his granddaughter in tears.
Kat and Ana arrived with chocolate bars and sweets to cheer Penny up.
With Luke, he was still shaken.
"You can perform with me." Sal offered.
"Why didn't you offer before? Oh, wait, do you guys not have any hope in yourselves?" Melony asked.
"Well, the cosmic buddies don't get too much attention, so sadly, I just see myself as a shadow to Luke and Shane." Sal says. "But Shane and Penny are potentially broken up because of what Shane did, so, you know…there's not many options for Luke now."
Kali decided to tag with Cynthia this time because Cynthia was the richest and had awesome designs.
She approached Cynthia. "Why, yes, I'd love to tag with you, Kali!" Cynthia says.
With Penny, she noticed her office was locked and noticed that Wario was off on a treasure hunting business trip and the group would be on break until after Christmas.
Penny sighed and headed to an ice cream parlor. She was getting her mind off of Shane.
"So, how's Shane?" the waiter asked as Penny stormed out, sobbing. She realized that would be impossible when Shane's basically worshiped a lot.
She knocked on 5-Volt's front door, knowing 5-Volt was a nice person.
Meanwhile, Luke and Sal were getting ready for the second part of the holiday special.
"I wonder where Angry Luigi is." Sal wondered as Angry Luigi was supposed to get him something.
Meanwhile…
"Okay, sex slaves, tonight is our chance at freedom. Now let's get busy!" Angry Luigi says, dressed like a slave as he opens the door to see Dusk Knight and gulped.
Back with Sal…
"I'm sure my cards are safe…" Sal says, twitching as he could not go 5 hours without his cards.
Luke sighed. He saw Sharon drag Shane to the show.
"You apologize to Luke at once!" Sharon says, holding Shane by his arm.
"Luke, I'm sorry! I really am…" Shane says.
"Once a Loud, always a Loud. First bad luck, now model slavery. What's next, sex slavery?" Luke asked.
"I doubt Shane could be on the show. Slavery is a no go rule." Dave says.
"Kids may get scared if everyone has seen it" Gemma says.
"Please let me stay on Luke's team…" Shane begged.
"Well…." Gemma says.
"Fine. But this is his last chance." Luke says. "Shane, you will perform with me as originally planned."
Shane nodded shamefully. Sal sighed, wanting to go team with Luke, but knew he was never good enough and left the stadium.
Soon, the show was starting. Gemma and Dave walked onstage in festive Christmas sweaters.
"Welcome to part 2 of the America's Next Hitmaker Christmas special, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight, our main teams have picked their duos, who will perform some Christmas duets and do some Christmas dances for your viewing pleasure!" Gemma says.
"Coming up first, the team of Kali and Cynthia representing the Adventure Kids!" Dave says
"Adventure Kids, Adventure Kids!" Fans chant as Kali and Cynthia appear on stage, performing Santa Tell Me by Ariana Grande.
Boys drooled as they fainted. Cynthia winked at the 4th wall.
They soon finished as fans cheered. Kali got offstage and signed a kid's autograph.
"Merry Christmas!" Kali said as she walked off.
Meanwhile Angry Luigi stomped on Dusk Knight and hammered her out the window. "This is the last time Amber drags me into her messes. That's it! Normally, I don't use this unless it's opponents tougher than Luke, but here we go!" Angry Luigi says using a white raccoon leaf unleashing an aura so powerful, Oliver could sense it a dimension away.
White Raccoon Angry Luigi was attacking the leaders of the place. He landed, looking mad.
Ben Jr. glared a bit " some were my girls" he says
"Shut it, Ben Jr.! In your stories, you can treat me like a toy, but this is not your playground, so shut up!" Angry Luigi says, pissed off as he walked off, carrying Skylia. "Every time we see Amber, we get close to getting raped." Angry Luigi says as fans cheered for him. They return home as Skylia collapses.
With Mugman, he and Mona went on. Mona wanted to get this done and over with as she wanted to check on Penny, which is why she and Mugman chose to go 2nd.
"Coming up next is the awesome duo of Mona and Mugman!" Gemma says.
Fans cheered as they came out and performed I'll Be Home For Christmas as sung by Elvis Presley & Carrie Underwood.
Girls screamed for Mugman, who smiled as he sang.
After they finished, Mugman and Mona left to check on Penny.
Penny was in Ashley's room, watching TV with Ashley as Ashley was feeding Penny.
"Hey." Mona says as this caused Ashley to drop the soup on Penny. Mugman healed Penny with some of his milk.
"This tastes good…" Penny sniffed.
"How are you feeling?" Mona asked.
"I don't know." Penny says as she blushes. She kept drinking as Mona covered Ashley's eyes.
"Penny, stop." Mona says, glaring as Penny looked away, blushing at Mugman.
"I just want a little more…" Penny says. She drank from him again as her body was going frisky a bit. She was slowly grinding against his crotch as Mona pulled Penny off.
"I-I'm sorry…" Penny stammered.
"Sorry?! You just tried to seduce my boyfriend!" Mona shouted and stormed out with Mugman in tow.
Soon, it was Oliver and Griffin's turn. Girls screamed as they performed Beautiful Christmas by Big Time Rush.
Luke looks on as he gets ready. Shane got ready as the ashamed look didn't leave his face.
Penny sniffed " I need to move on from Shane " Penny says and looked at Ashley.
"You look cute…" Penny says as Ashley felt uncomfortable.
"Penny, he's sorry, okay? You can't just give up on him and you can't seduce others to hide your pain." Ashley says as Penny was pinning her down. Ashley stops a kiss from happening, trying to calm Penny down.
Penny sobbed as Ashley looked a bit concerned. Penny had tried to seduce Ashley. She realized that she needed Shane, but didn't know if he deserved a second chance.
Fans loved Oliver and Griffin. They then finished as the crowd cheered for them.
Luke was backstage with Shane, getting ready.
"Good luck." Lucy says.
"Coming up, the stars of the show, Shane Loud and Luke Huntington!" Gemma says as fans cheered.
The two of them came out in Elvis outfits that looked like Santa suits, from the hair to the boots.
Fans loved it as they performed Santa Claus Is Back In Town by Elvis Presley. They had the best one of the night like usual. Sal knew he wasn't needed on the team.
Girls screamed for the boys and fainted as Shane grinned. They finished a few minutes later as girls screamed more.
Sal left, going home as he realized he wasn't needed and felt useless.
"You did great!" Leni says to them.
"Thanks!" Luke says.
"Ashley, I'm sorry." Penny says, feeling guilty. Ashley was a little girl. Mature, yes, but a little girl who trusted Penny and Penny broke that trust.
Ashley sighed. "You tried to touch me because you wanted a replacement for Shane." Ashley says nervously. "But it's time to give Shane a second chance. He really is sorry for what he did."
Meanwhile, Angry Luigi leaped out of a portal and sighed. "That was awful. Never again." he says.
"Bye, Brandy." Amber says.
"Whatever." he says as the portal closes.
Oliver and the others just came back to see Skylia shaking on the couch.
Beau and Garrett were performing the Frank Sinatra rendition of Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas on stage. Fans cheered as girls squealed for Garrett.
The crowd cheered once they finished. Garrett took off his scarf and gave it to a fan.
Mona notices Mugman growing up down there thanks to Penny, and was jealous that she made him that way. She couldn't believe Penny tried to take Mugman away from her.
Shane came to Penny. "You know I'm sorry." He says.
"I'll give you another chance." Penny says to him.
Shane smiled and kissed Penny.
