Tenney

Printers Alley

The next week, Mason picks Tenney and Jaya up from school and takes them downtown, to a street called Printers Alley. Mason convinces Tenney to set up their amps anywhere, and to just start playing. At first, Tenney feels strange just asking to play music out of nowhere. But after a fun introduction from Mason, she opens up and begins to feel comfortable.

By the end of her mini-performance, Tenney has gathered quite a crowd.

On the way home, Tenney learns that Mason never actually asked permission for Tenney to perform. But Tenney realizes that since their neighbor saw her perform, she had to come clean.

At dinner, Tenney asks once again if she can play the showcase. When her mom says no, she accidentally blurts out that she played her song that day in front of an audience! Her parents, astonished, are upset and angry with both her and Mason, and they both end up grounded.
