The song ends.

Ella says FOR MORE INCREDIBLE
ENTERTAINMENT, AT A REASONABLE
PRICE,
COME JOIN US NOW AT THE PICCOLO
FAMILY CIRCUS SHOW.
SEE YA SOON.

In her room, April spins and says THANKS FOR THAT ELLA.
I GUESS IT WAS MORE OF AN AD FOR
THE PICCOLO FAMILY CIRCUS BUT IT
SURE WAS SPARKLY.
AND HOW DID YOU LIKE THAT
LITERAL FIRE AT THE END?
THAT WAS ALL ME.
NOW PLEASE ENJOY THE TRAMPOLINE
STYLINGS OF AXEL.

The caption changes to "Showstopper challenge!"

Featuring different app filters, Axel says HEY EVERYONE.
I WAS CHALLENGED BY PHOENIX TO
ONE UP HER CIRCUS MOVES.
SO HERE I AM AT MY SECOND HOME,
THE TRAMPOLINE.
LET'S DO IT.

INSTRUMENTAL CIRCUS MUSIC

He starts jumping on the trampoline as different Emojis appear on screen.

Axel says NICK, YOU'RE UP NEXT.
I CHALLENGE YOU TO BRING IT IN
THE SHOWSTOPPER CHALLENGE.

April says THANKS AXEL.
I'M SURE MY LITTLE EDITORIAL
EXTRAS WILL GIVE YOU AN EDGE IN
THE CHALLENGE FOR SURE.
NEXT UP, MAX, WITH A REPORT I'M
SURE YOU'LL FIND VERY...
ENTERTAINING.

The caption changes to "The struggle to juggle. A complete review of the history of juggling in popular culture."

Max says AS CIRCUS STUDENTS AND
AFICIONADOS, WE'VE ALL ENJOYED
THE SPECTACLE OF JUGGLING BUT
INSTEAD OF WATCHING IT, WOULDN'T
YOU PREFER TO LEARN ABOUT THE
HISTORY BEHIND IT?
OF COURSE YOU WOULD.

He puts on his glasses and says THE FIRST KNOWN INSTANCE OF
JUGGLING IS SAID TO HAVE BEEN
CAPTURED IN A SERIES OF IMAGES
ON AN ANCIENT EGYPTIAN TOMB
AROUND THE YEAR...

Different stickers and Emojis start coming toward him.

He says HEY.
HEY.
GO AWAY.
STOP IT.
WHAT THE ?

His glasses turn into sunglasses.

He says MY GLASSES.

He tries to push them away and says WHAT IS GOING ON?
STOP.
UGH.
GO AWAY.
STOP IT.
WHY?
WHY?
(COMPUTER SOUNDS)

Now Max and April connect in a meeting.

Max says APRIL.
WHAT WAS THAT?

April says MY ED-ISH HAS THE
MOST VIEWS EVER.
THE BIG TOP BULLETIN
IS BLOWING UP.

Max says YOU BLEW UP MY REPORT.
I GAVE YOU CHAMPION LEVEL
REPORTING AND YOU MADE IT INTO A
JOKE.

April says I MADE IT WATCHABLE.
SHOW, DON'T TELL MAX.

Max says I DEMAND ANOTHER SLOT.
UNEDITED.

April says NO WAY.
IF IT ISN'T SPARKLY
IT IS NOT GOING IN
THE ED-ISH.

Max says WHATEVER.
LET'S SEE WHAT MS. MARTEL HAS TO
SAY ABOUT THIS.

A caption reads "We interrupt this program to bring you this important message from our editor."

April says HI GUYS.
UM, I HAVE THE FOLLOWING
STATEMENT TO READ TO YOU FROM
MS. MARTEL.
AS EDITORS OF THE BIG TOP
BULLETIN, WE ARE ENCOURAGED TO
SHOWCASE OUR CREATIVE
EXPRESSION.
HOWEVER, THAT DOES NOT GIVE US
PERMISSION TO DRASTICALLY ALTER
ANOTHER CLASSMATE'S CONTENT
WITHOUT PERMISSION.

She sighs and says AND SO I WILL NOW BE PRESENTING
A NEW CLIP FROM MAX.
UNEDITED BY ME AS AN APOLOGY.
I HAVEN'T WATCHED THIS SO I
CAN'T STAND BEHIND IT AS YOUR
EDITOR BUT, UM, HERE WE ARE.
ENJOY.
I GUESS.

Now an un-edited version of Max's clip rolls.

Max says HELLO.
I WAS GOING TO CONTINUE MY
REPORT ON THE HISTORY OF
JUGGLING BUT THE EDITOR OF THIS
ISSUE MADE A COMPELLING POINT.
SOMETIMES "SHOW, DON'T TELL" IS
A DIRECTION WORTH FOLLOWING.
SO, WITHOUT FURTHER
ADO...
EVERY CHAMPION NEEDS A SIGNATURE
CELEBRATION DANCE.
SO HERE'S MINE.

He puts on a top hat, grabs some juggling balls and starts juggling.

CIRCUS MUSIC

Then he drops the ball and starts tap dancing.

He says HOPE THAT WAS SPARKLY ENOUGH.
BACK TO YOU APRIL.

April says I HATE TO ADMIT IT BUT MAX DID
AN AMAZING JOB AND I HATE TO
ADMIT IT EVEN MORE BUT HE EVEN
INSPIRED ME.
SO, I'VE CREATED MY OWN DANCE
CHALLENGE.
IT'S EASY, FUN AND IT'S FOR ALL
OF YOU.
SO FOLLOW ALONG.
ESPECIALLY YOU INFLUENCERS.

April starts dancing to a song that goes
I GOT A PLAN AND IT'S
NEW LIKE THAT.
THINGS TRYING TO MAKE SOME
NEW MOVES LIKE THAT.
YOU KNOW I GOT THE JUICE LIKE
THAT.
I'M STEPPING IN AND LIGHTING
UP THE ROOM LIKE THAT.
YOU KNOW I AIN'T TRYING TO BE
RUDE LIKE THAT.
BUT I'VE BEEN REALLY TRYING
TO TELL THE TRUTH LIKE THAT.
SORRY IF YOU WERE CONFUSED BY
THAT.
BUT IMMA BE MYSELF AND REALLY
GROOVE LIKE THAT.
YEAH.

April says NOW IT'S YOUR TURN TO SHOW US
WHAT YOU'VE GOT.
I REALLY HOPE THIS WORKS.

Viewer's messages start popping on the screen.

April says WOW, YOU'RE ALREADY DOING IT.
SO GREAT GUYS.
KEEP THIS COMING.
SEND YOUR VERSIONS OF THE
SPARKLE SHAKING.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM.
STAY SPARKLY.

Different clips show viewers doing their version of the sparkle shaking.

The song goes I GOT A PLAN AND IT'S
NEW LIKE THAT.
THINGS TRYING TO MAKE SOME
NEW MOVES LIKE THAT.
YOU KNOW I GOT THE JUICE LIKE
THAT.
I'M STEPPING IN AND LIGHTING
UP THE ROOM LIKE THAT.
YOU KNOW I AIN'T TRYING TO BE
RUDE LIKE THAT.
BUT I'VE BEEN REALLY TRYING
TO TELL THE TRUTH LIKE THAT.
SORRY IF YOU WERE CONFUSED BY
THAT.
BUT IMMA BE MYSELF AND REALLY
GROOVE LIKE THAT.
YEAH.

After doing the shaking, one girl jumps in the pool and says AH!
(COMPUTER SOUNDS)

April says THANKS TO ALL OF
YOU FOR HELPING
ME OUT.
I'M SORRY IF
I OVERSTEPPED.

Axel says HONESTLY, I THINK WHAT YOU DID
IN YOUR ED-ISH WAS PRETTY COOL.

Rosa says AND I LOVE THE SPARKLE
SHAKE.

April says THANKS AGAIN GUYS.
I'LL TALK TO
YOUR LATER.

The kids start leaving the chat room.

Max says HEY, WAIT.

April says NOW WHAT?

Max says I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT
I DIDN'T COMPLETELY DESPISE
WHAT YOU DID
WITH MY REPORT.

April says I DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU COULD TAP
DANCE LIKE THAT.

April gets one new notification on her phone.

She gasps.

Max says WHAT?

April says MY ED-ISH GOT SO MANY VIEWS.
IT MADE THE FRONT PAGE OF CIRCUS
UNIVERSE FORUM.
I DID IT.
WE'RE FAMOUS.

Max says THAT'S GREAT APRIL.

April says I COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT
YOU.
ACTUALLY, I PROBABLY COULD HAVE.

Max says PROBABLY.

In computer writing, a caption reads "Enter secret room."

Nick touches the screen button and gets transported again.

He says IT HAPPENED AGAIN.

An unseen voice says WELCOME TO THE VIRTUAL
SECRET ROOM NICOLAS.

Nick says IT'S NICK.

The voice says MY APOLOGIES NICK.

Nick says WHAT IS THIS PLACE?
WHO ARE YOU?

The voice says ALL WILL SOON BE
REVEALED BUT FIRST I HAVE AN
ASSIGNMENT FOR YOU.

The theme song plays as the end credits roll.
