"This is a nail-biter folks. There's 47 seconds left on the clock. We're all tied up. The Sherwood Falcons, two, the Fighting Knights, two. What a game between Auradon's fiercest rivals!" The announcer's voice rang out in the stands.

"Get 'em Chad."

"Thanks, Jay."

The announcer continues, "The teams get into their huddles and take up positions along the kill zone. The dragoneers have been laying down a withering hail of fire. And now for a substitution."

Margo noticed Coach is putting Jay and Carlos in.

"He's bringing that hothead Jay in from the Isle of the Lost and that little guy Carlos can barely hold a shield. They already have a girl on the field. This is a recipe for disaster. When they break from their huddles, this is gonna be a big moment here. And the tipoff is ready. Here we go. Long pass goes to Jay. Jay dishes off to Margo. Nice little block by Carlos. He does a little dancing jig in his opponent's face. And now Jay gets the ball back. Here comes Jay! Jay, hurdling maneuver at mid-field. Jay makes a nice pass to Margo through the kill zone. Big block by Chad! Margo moves over wide, gives it back to Jay. He's in the clear! Shot! Oh, what a save by Philip, the Falcon's goalkeeper! 23 seconds left. You could cut the tension with a sword. The long ball is played into Jay. Jay, great jump, great leap. And a great move by Jay. Big block from Chad. Jay dishes off to Margo. And then Carlos with a big block, goes down. Jay through the kill zone, picks up Carlos. Oh, he's being hammered by dragon fire! Still, going on, Jay, hurdling maneuver at mid-field. He's in the clear. The ball goes back to Jay. He passes to Margo. She scores! Margo has won it! What an unselfish play by Jay! What a team! Incredible! And it's the new guys, Jay and Carlos, who set Margo up for the win here. What a victory! An absolutely wonderful end to one of the best games ever. Here they come folks. The winners of the first tourn-"

"Excuse me. Excuse me. Can I have your attention please?" Ben had grabbed the mic from the announcer. "There's something I'd like to say." Ben takes a quick pause, waiting for everyone's attention. "Give me an 'M'!"

"M!"

"Give me an 'A'!"

"A!"

"Give me an 'L'!"

"L!"

"What does that spell?"

"Mal!"

"Come on, I can't hear you!"

"Mal!"

"I love you, Mal! Did I mention that? Give me a beat!"

"Uno, dos, tres, cautro!" Doug yelled.

Ben:
Did I mention
That I'm in love with you
Did I mention
There's nothing I can do
And did I happen to say?
I dream of you everyday
But let me shout it out, if that's okay

But let me shout it out, if that's okay, (yeah!)
If that's okay

I gotta know which way to go, c'mon gimme a sign
You gotta show me that you're only ever gonna be mine
Don't want to go another minute even without you
That's if your heart just isn't in it, I don't know what I'd do

Because my love for is ridiculous
I never knew (who knew?)

My love for you is ridiculous
My love is R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S

By the end of Ben's musical number, Margo was over by Carlos, who she had been dancing with, and Ben was next to Mal in the bleachers.

Then Audrey ruined the moment, "Chad's my boyfriend now! And I'm going to the coronation with him, so I don't need your pity date!" Audrey proceeded her statement by kissing Chad.

"Mal! Will you go to the coronation with me?" Ben asked, looking like a love sick puppy.

"Yes!"

"She said yes!"

After Jay was named MVP, the team went off for victory pizza.
