[The hipster couple is scrolling through their phone]
Hipster Male: "Hydration is so trendy right now. Where should we buy something to drink?"
[Just then, a sign is twirled in front of them]
Hipster Couple: "Huh?"
[The sign spinner is none other than CJ, the couple is amazed]
Hipster Male: "Whoa! Wow! How could we not support your sign spinning by shopping here?"
[Hector pops out of the mercado. The couple takes a selfie with CJ]
Hipster Couple: "Wow."
Hector: "You know what's cool? Ice cold horchata."
Hipster Male: "Whoa! Horchata."
[He and his girlfriend enter the mercado]
Hector: [Proud] "Keep it up, CJ. You're attracting tons of customers."
CJ: "Thanks, Abuelo."
Hector: [Not proud] "Way more than Mr. Inflatable ever did." [Mr. Inflatable deflates in sadness] "Bueno pour nada!"
[Hector goes into the mercado. Meanwhile, Par arrives with a delivery, humming a song to himself]
Par: [Sees CJ] "Whoa! You're awesome, CJ. I used to be a sign spinner, myself and I know talent when I see it." [Gasps] "You should enter the Great Lake City Sign Spinning Competition."
CJ: "No thanks."
Par: "Why? You're a natural."
CJ: "I don't really like competing. It makes me nervous. What if I lose?"
Par: "You can't let that stop you. And with me as your coach, o-oh, you're guaranteed a win. Who's going to be one sick competitor after the Par Dog trains him?" [Barks, takes the sign, and demonstrates his own talent, ending with the sign pointing at CJ] "Ah! This guy!"
CJ: [Amazed] "Whoa! Okay, sign me up."
Par: "Ha! I see what you did there. To the park." [They set off] "You're on mango duty, Mr. Inflatable!"


[They are at the park]
Par: "Okay, the number one rule of spinning, never let the sign hit the floor. You lose major points for that."
CJ: [Spins the sign flawlessly] "Ooh, yep. So far, so good."
Par: "Now we'll practice keeping your grip. Let's see how you do…" [puts butter on the sign] "with butter."
[CJ tries to spin, ut the sign is very slippery] "Uh-oh. Nice. Yeah! [Makes it work] "While being attacked by squirrels." [Dumps a bucket of acorns at CJ's feet. A mob of squirrels fight over the pile]
CJ: "Ah!" [Starts giggling] "It tickles!" [Laughs as the squirrels leave, except for one who is trying to find its way out of CJ's shirt] "Whoa!" [Falls over, dropping the sign, which knocks Par into the fountain and hits the ground] "I broke the number one rule."
Par: "That's okay. The second rule is... pick yourself back up and finish strong.
[Gives CJ the sign back. CJ spins again]


[Later, they are next to the grinding rail. Par is giving CJ more pointers]
Par: "Adding fun moments for the crowd gets you bonus points, like this."
[Spins the sign, balances it on his foot, and high-fives a passing roller skater on the rail. Par then kicks the sign up and points in the direction the skater went]
CJ: "Fun."
Par: "Now you give it a shot."
[CJ takes the sign but is unsure what to do. Until he hears a baby crying]
CJ: "Huh?" [A baby is crying nearby. CJ is next to the baby, tosses the sign up, and plays with the baby] "Peek-a-boo!" [Catches the sign and throws it again] "Peek-a-boo!"
[Kicks the sign up before it lands. The baby laughs and the father leaves with the baby. CJ catches the sign]
Par: "Goo goo, yeah, yeah. Nicely done."
[Later, a soccerball is stuck in a tree, the players standing on the ground staring at it. CJ arrives and throws the sign at the ball, knocking it down]
CJ: "Whoo hoo hoo hoo hoo. Oh."
[Par kicks the ball at a trashcan, which Sancho was eating on. Sancho spins and lands on the ground, a banana peel landing on his face. The team gets their ball back and cheer]


[Later, Par and CJ return to the mercado]
Par: "Oh, also super important. You have to find a finishing move that blows people's minds."
CJ: [Looks at the sign] "Ooh, what about this? [Tosses the sign and balances it on his rear] "Whoo-hoo, whoo." [Does a cartwheel, and balances the sign on his head] "Uh, whoo." [Does another cartwheel and rolls the sign on his arms and behind his neck] "Whoo." [Tosses it up and goes into a handstand, catching the sign with his feet] "Oh, yeah!"
[Jumps up and catches the sign, a crowd has arrived and cheers for him]
Par: "Love it! You're gonna crush the competition."
[The crowd, followed by another one, races into the mercado]
Hector: "Bobby, raise the price of horchata quickly!"


[At the GLC Convention Center, it's time for the annual sign spinning competition. CJ and Par enter and the crowd is cheering everywhere]
Par: "This is it, CJ. Smell that?" [Inhales] "Smells like spinning cardboard and victory."
CJ: [Sniffs himself] "Smells like I'm nervous. You sure I'm ready?"
Par: "Absolutely! You've been practicing so hard! You've got the moves down!"
CJ: [Nervous] "I hope so."


[The competition starts, being announced by its co-hosts]
Jim Sparkletooth: "Coming to you live from Great Lake City's Annual Sign Spinning Competition, I'm Jim Sparkletooth!"
Mrs. Kernicky: "And I'm Mrs. Kernicky!"
Jim Sparkletooth: "Let's take this tourney for a journey. It's spin time!" [CJ's intro clip appears on the monitor] "Up first, CJ Casagrande."
[Everyone cheers, CJ gets on stage and sparklers go off]
Par: "You got this! I believe in you, CJ!"
[This gives CJ a confidence boost. He puts on a game face and steps up. He takes a breath and tosses the sign between hands]
Mrs. Kernicky: "We're seeing some pro moves here from CJ, who's spinning his family's mercado sign." [CJ starts tossing the sign between hands behind his back]
Man in Crowd: "This kid's pretty good. Go, CJ!"
CJ: "Uh. Yeah!"
[Gives a thumbs up and spins the sign on it]
Man in Crowd: [Gasps] "Yay!"
[Up next, Artemis is spinning a blowdryer sign]
Artemis: "Ooh! Great performance by Artemis representing Margarita's Hair Salon. And the scores are in." [All the judges vote CJ] "CJ moves on to the next round."
[CJ and Artemis shake hands]


[In the next round, CJ tosses the sign and gestures for everyone to cheer, they do]
Pan Dulce Vendor: "Pan dulce!" [CJ sees the man and tosses the sign at him like a frisbee] "Pan dulc- Huh!" [The sign knocks the pan dulce into the crowd, they all enjoy it. But the vendor isn't too happy] "Hey! You need to pay for those!" [The sign returns, depositing cash onto the man's tray] "Whoa."
[CJ catches the sign and the crowd cheers]
Mrs. Kernicky: "CJ and his mercado sign have advanced again. Too bad pizza chef's sign hit the floor, losing him points." [The pizza chef picks up his sign, he and CJ shake hands] "Can you believe, first-time competitor, CJ has made it to the final round?"
Jim Sparkletooth: "It's a true Spin-derella story." [chuckles]


[Later, Par is warming up CJ]
Par: "Your practice is paying off, CJ. You could win this whole thing!"
CJ: "I don't know why I was so nervous."
Par: "Now you just gotta beat Doyle."
[The sparklers go off again, along with a cloud of smoke. Doyle is really good at spinning]
Jim Sparkletooth: "If I were CJ, I would be nervous. They don't call Doyle The Twirling Terror for nothing."
CJ: [Remembering why he was nervous] "I don't want to go against Doyle. I'll get crushed."
Par: "By Doyle? Nah, you got this."
[Doyle spins their sign on their head, tosses it up, catches it on their knee and foot like a hacky sack, kicks it up, does some flips, bounces it off their rear and catches it on one finger. The crowd cheers]
CJ: "Uh, I have to use the bathroom. Be right back." [CJ makes a run for the exit] "I gotta get out of here!"
[Suddenly, he runs right into his familia who greet him]
Ronnie Anne: "Hey, CJ."
CJ: "Woah! What are you guys doing here?"
Ronnie Anne: "Par texted us that you're kicking butt in the competition. Why didn't you tell us?"
CJ: "Oh, yeah, guess I forgot."
Carlos: "We're so proud!"
Rosa: "We can't wait to watch you win, mijo."
Hector: "And it doesn't hurt that you're spinning the mercado sign. Great for business. Now, where's the nacho guy? Every sport has a nacho guy."
[Right then, the nacho guy passes by]
Carl: "Yes, please!"
Ronnie Anne: "Nachos!"
[Hector is carried by the scent, and the rest of the family runs]
CJ: [Stops his rather slow running hermano] "Carl, wait."
Carl: "What is it? I'm gonna miss nachos."
CJ: "Can you help me get out of this?"
Carl: "Are you crazy? You're in the finals!"
CJ: "But I'm gonna lose in front of everyone. It's my worst nightmare."
Carl: "Say no more, hermano! Nachos can wait."
[They walk off]


[Backstage, Doyle is practicing with a heavy barbell. Carl and CJ poke their heads through the door]
Carl: [Seeing Doyle] "Woah! That's your competition? I got this."
[Carl slips in behind a shelving unit, rolls behind Doyle's bag, swipes the sign for Pete's Pets and returns to CJ]
CJ: "What are you doing?"
Carl: "Solving your problem. No sign, no competition."
[Walks out, laughing evilly. CJ follows. Near the lockers, two kids are talking. Carls pops out of one locker and steals the girl's sign. Then he pops out of another locker and steals the boy's sign. In the crowd, the supporters have their signs stolen right from their hands. Two dudes realize and hold each other crying]
Jim Sparkletooth: "We've gotten word that Doyle's sign for Pete's Pets is missing."
[The crowd gasps]


[In the hall, Carl loads up more signs into a laundry cart. Carl notices a sign to direct people to the stage]
Carl: "We gotta take these signs too, in case Doyle tries to use one as a replacement. Not on my watch!"
[Wheels the cart away, followed by CJ, and then returns to get the stage sign. On the way down the hall, Carl takes all the information signs]
CJ: "Those signs aren't even for spinning."
Carl: "We can't take any chances." [The exit is in their sights] "Time to bust these signs outta here."
[They run to the door, but the latch is still shut and they just run into it. They both end up in the laundry cart with the signs. Carl groans, as the cart rolls itself back]
CJ: "What was that?"
Carl: "I thought the doors would fly open like in the movies."
[The cart rolls onto the stage. The crowd cheers]
Mrs. Kernicky: [Not knowing the boys stole the signs] "Phew! Crisis averted. CJ found the signs and we're back in business."
Doyle: [Walks up and reclaims their sign] "Thanks, CJ. This is just what I needed to beat you."


[Time for the final match]
Jim Sparkletooth: "It's time for the final match between CJ Casagrande and Doyle 'The Twirling Terror' Butler. You can feel the spin-tensity in the air!"
[CJ is really nervous]
Par: "You can do this, CJ!"
[CJ gets another confidence boost. The spinning starts. Doyle throws their sign up and leaps into the air. They catch it and spin it around their head. CJ does the same, and runs around Doyle]
Mrs. Kernicky: "CJ is literally running circles around Doyle! Ha! Classic." [Doyle gestures for CJ to stop and they stare each other down. Doyle throws their sign up and takes one giant step to the other side of the stage. They do a robot dance and holds their hand out, right where their sign lands, tosses it back up and catches it in their already extended hand again] "Check out those robot spin moves!"
[Doyle looks back at CJ, who has his own plan]
CJ: [Tosses his sign up] "Whoo-hoo! Okay, all right!" [Does some disco moves]
Mrs. Kernicky: "But CJ is staying alive with the disco fever!"
[The sign lands on CJ's finger and spins like a basketball again. Doyle makes their move. They toss their sign up, suddenly, there is a canvas painting of Doyle triumphantly standing on a rock in the sunset. Doyle paints on a sign in their hand. And catches the real sign in their real hand, mimicking their pose in the painting]
Jim Sparkletooth: "Ooh, arts and crafts. That'll be a big hit with the judges!"
[CJ throws his sign up, heads off and returns with a magic box. He takes out a want, poofs a hat onto his head]
CJ: "Ta-da!"
[His sign lands on the tip of the wand. The Casagrandes cheer]
Ronnie Anne: "Go CJ!"
Jim Sparkletooth: "CJ matches Doyle with some awesome hang time of his own!"
Mrs. Kernicky: "I love magic."
[Doyle throws their sign up and starts spinning on their head, their sign lands on their feet and Doyle continues spinning it]
Jim Sparkletooth: "And Doyle finishes strong with a super signature move!"
[Doyle sends their sign back up, jumps to their feet and catches the sign in their mouth]
Mrs. Kernicky: "Wow, what a catch! What could possibly beat that?"
[CJ's nervous again]
Par: "Don't worry, CJ! Your signature move is even better!" [CJ spins his sign to one hand and does his signature move. But suddenly, the sign slips out from his feet] "It's gonna fall! No!"
[The announcers gasp, the Casagrande's gasp. CJ dives to rescue the sign but it hits the ground and breaks into two]
Jim Sparkletooth: "Ooh, tough break! Literally. No coming back from that."
[CJ picks up the two pieces and groans. The crowd keeps cheering]
Hipster Woman: "We love you, CJ! Don't give up!"
[CJ is touched by the support]
Casagrandes: "CJ, CJ, CJ!"
Hector: "Nachos, nachos! I mean..."
All Casagrandes: "CJ, CJ, CJ!"
[CJ steps up and starts juggling the two broken pieces of his sign]
Mrs. Kernicky: "Are my eyes deceiving me? CJ is double spinning with the broken sign pieces!"
Jim Sparkletooth: "Oh it's spin-tastic!"
[CJ spins a piece on both hands, tosses them up, does a handstand and kicks them up with his feet. He gets up, catches each piece in a hand and reunites them together]
CJ: "Yeah!"
[The whole crowd cheers, including Mr. Inflatable, and the Casagrandes]
Mrs. Kernicky: "What an amazing routine! Too bad he dropped that sign. That'll cost him." [Jim agrees] "Ooh, the scores are in, and…" [The score is two votes to one for Doyle] "Doyle just squeaks by with the win!"
[Doyle has won]
Jim Sparkletooth: "But if you ask anyone watching, CJ Casagrande won our hearts today!"
[CJ and Doyle fistbump as CJ's familia comes out on stage]
Rosa: "Great job, CJ! Ay, maravilloso!"
Carlos: "Great job, mijo!"
Ronnie Anne: "You killed that, dude!"
Carl: "Great job, CJ!"
Par: "I'm proud of you. That was epic!"
CJ: "Thanks for helping me, Par. So, when do we start training for next year?"
Par: "That's my man! How about right after we eat some nachos?"
CJ: "Sounds good to me!"
[Everyone looks at Hector, who's nacho bucket is overflowing]
Hector: [Overcome by greed] "Sorry, all out."
[Hector is about to dump the whole bucket into his mouth. CJ hurls one sign piece in the opposite direction, it returns and knocks the bucket out of Hector's hands, the bucket landing on Hector's head, and the nachos raining down]
