Tenney

Center Stage

The Tri-Stars have a performance at the Neighborhood Association Mixer. But just as they’re getting set up, Dad calls Jesse. Jesse quit the band. Now, they’re down a lead singer! Dad offers to sing lead on some of the songs, but he can’t quite do all of them. Mason volunteers Tenney to sing a couple of the songs. She feels confident that she knows the words and the parts.

But as she steps up to the microphone, she realizes she’s off. The mic is too high, and she automatically sings her normal harmony part, instead of the melody. But with Mason and Dad’s singing supporting her, she pulls through and eventually finds comfort on the center stage. At the end, Tenney reflects that it felt like she was floating! Dad and Mason exclaim that Tenney was fantastic.
