[edit] Plot
Li'l D is dreaming about performing on stage with Sunny Bridges, but wakes up after being startled by pigeons. At the Westley's School for Performing Arts, Principal Luna tells the students that their music teacher won't be coming back for a while (he is apparently in jail). Meanwhile, Sunny Bridges is on stage at a concert in Tokyo when he announces his decision to "quit music." The class decides to raise a benefit concert so that they can afford a new music teacher, and Li'l D meets Sunny Bridges. After failing to convince Sunny to play at their benefit concert, the students play by themselves despite rain and a lack of audience, and it becomes sunny when Sunny Bridges comes out and joins them. However, just as Sunny was about to accept the job as their teacher, his managers come and take him away. Back at school, the students are disappointed by his disappearance when Principal Luna arrives with Sunny in tow, introducing their new music teacher.
