So when her idol, a famous ballerina, encourages her to audition for a professional ballet, Isabelle isn't sure she can land the role. And when a competitive classmate starts pointing out Isabelle's every mistake, her confidence sinks even further.

I'm just a little

tired right now.

(RHYTHMIC DRUMMING)

Ah! There you are,

sleepy head.

Come on and sit down.

We have a lot to do today.

Your sister's been

up for hours.

Of course she has.

(CHUCKLES)

(ALL LAUGHING)

So, you guys excited to

see your old dad's band

play in Uncle Davi's

backyard barbecue today?

We're debuting a special song.

What's the new song?

Oh, no, it's a secret.

You'll just have to wait

for the backyard barbecue.

NANCY:
I love

watching you perform.

Hospital administrator on the weekdays,

and rock star on the weekends.

It's like having a super hero

for a husband.

Super Dad!

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Whoa. Look how the sun is making

the water lilies sparkle!

JADE:
Totally.

They lookjust

like the real ones

we saw at the Aquatic Gardens

at Kenilworth Park last year.

That's what inspired me.

I thought that the flowers looked like

little jewels floating in a sea of blue.

Then you came home and locked

yourself up in here for weeks.

And the, voil.

Pond Dreams.

(ALL LAUGHING)

But it was worth having to order

pizza for dinner for awhile.

(LAUGHS)

Your mother does tend to go hardcore when

she's working on an important project.

Speaking of

important projects,

I have got to finish your costume

for the Halloween Benefit.

It's gonna be the best one.

Because you are the most genius costumer

in the history of the Smithsonian.

Aw! (LAUGHS)

I actually restore antique textiles

at the Smithsonian, Isabelle,

but thank you very much.

Actually, with this particular costume,

I was hoping you'd design it with me.

Are you in?

Totally!

That's good! I want to go to the Thornton

Landing flea market this morning,

before the barbecue,

and see if we can find

some really good stuff

for your costume.

That's a great idea!

How is it that you two

are both sewing geniuses

and I can't even

thread a needle?

Oh, please, you're good

at everything else!

Am not.

Are, too.

Am not.

Are, too.

Am not!

Are, too!

(BOTH YELLING)

Okay. Okay!

I think it's time you got going.

(ALL LAUGHING)

We have to rehearse

before the barbecue. Yes.

First person to help me load

my drums into the car

gets to have control of the TV

for the rest of the week.

JADE:
I totally got this.

Go! Go, go, go, go!

Wait, wait, wait.

Hey, wait for me!

(MELLOW MUSIC PLAYING)

I can't wait to hear

Dad's new song.

I wonder why he was being

so mysterious about it.

I know.

Speaking of mysterious, I'm very curious

about one of your flea market finds.

What are you planning

to do with this thing

that I use to organize my

cords behind my desk?

Well, I thought I could

maybe use it as a tail

for my cat costume
