"Well, it seems I'm not the only one who actually enjoyed that. Crowds are beginning to arrive at the scene.", Bob said as animals came into the theatre and took seats.
-----------------
Behind the curtains, the kids were still hugging Rosita, even Buster, "Help!"
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Moon.", Rosita said.
"Johnny, you're on next!"
Johnny and Eddie rolled the piano on the stage. Johnny sat on the stool looking up (Y/N) who gave him two thumbs up, "You got this!", she mouthed.
You could never know what it's like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you
You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use
-----------------
In a cell, Stan and Barry with other prisoners watched the show on TV. Rick was behind them on his bed.
And did you think this fool could never win?
Well look at me, I'm coming back again
"What is that? Turn it down, will ya?", he asked but they didn't listen.
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade away
He stood up walking to them, "Oi ... Didn't you hear me? I said, turn it ...", then saw Johnny on the TV, "Johnny?"
Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor
"Johnny.", Rick was amazed by his son.
Feeling like a little kid
"It's Johnny! That's my son!", he cheered.
I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
Rick's smile fell realising what he had done, "My son...", he grabbed the bars seeing the lights in the distance.
I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
With new determination, he grunted as he pulled on the bars.
I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
The police officer heard the noise and ran to the cell. Rick continued to pull on the bars as the bricks around started to come loose. Just as the police officers entered the cell, he through the bars at them.
Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now
Rick jumped out and landed on a driving bus. He grabbed a lamppost and swung himself to a roof. In the cell, the prisoners cheered for Rick.

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
Backstage, Ash prepared herself for her act.
I'm still standing after all this time
-----------------
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
Rick continued to run on the roofs to get to the theatre.
-----------------
I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
The crowd cheered and clapped at his act.
"What about that, huh? Give it up for Johnny, folks!"
Johnny didn't know what to do so he looked at (Y/N). She gestured to the crowd and showed him how to bow. He bowed to the crowd who continued to cheer for him as he walked to the others. (Y/N) handed him a towel which he took but then his face fell.
"What's with the face? You were great! They loved you!", Rosita said.
"Yeah, thanks, Rosita.", he gave a small smile but it went back to a frown as he wiped the sweat from the back of his neck.
(Y/N) walked to him, "Is it your dad?"
He nodded. She sat next to him and rubbed his back as his head fell on her shoulder.
-----------------
The helicopters flew around the town to find Rick as he jumped from roof to roof to avoid the lights.
