I'’ll take that bet!

Ha!

[Grunts]
[giggles]

This is the best
playdate ever!

[Giggles]
yeah!

I just love
your kingdom, riley.

Glowshire is filled
with so many beautiful
places to explore

And amazing creatures
I'’ve never seen.
[Giggles]

Come on!
I'’ll show you more.

That is,
if you can keep up.

Ha ha! Keep up?
I'’ll lead the way!

Woo-hoo!

Whew!

[Discordant notes playing]

Was that a trombone?

[Notes continue]a trom-huh?

No, that was cheeks.

She'’s a glowshire
dragon.

She'’s really shy,
but she sings

Like that
all the time.

[Notes continue]

Queen: yoo-hoo!

And that is
the sound of my mom.

[Both giggle]

Ok, you two.

I'’m afraid it'’s
time to wrap up
this playdate.

Aw, glow pops!

We'’re having
so much fun!

I don'’t want
the playdate to end.

Can'’t we just play
for a little while
longer, mom?

Both: please?

I'’m afraid
we have to get back
to castlehaven, honey.

Thank you
for having us over to
your kingdom, riley,

But nella is
playing the trombone

In a big concert tonight
and needs to get ready.

A concert?
That sounds awesome!
Can I come?

That'’s a great idea,
riley!

You could play in
the concert with me!

Play? I ju--
I just meant--

What instrument
do you play?

Instrument?
Uh, well...

I don'’t really...

The trombone!

I play the trombone

'’Cause I can do
everything just like you.

[Gasps]
that'’s perfect!

We can play
a trombone duet!

Then our playdate
doesn'’t have to end!

Ok, but first I better
just get dressed

And get
my, uh, trombone.

I'’ll meet you there.

Come on, sweetie.awesome!

See you later,
nella.

Nella: this is going to be
the best concert ever!

Heh heh!
There'’s only one problem.

I can'’t play the trombone!

What am I gonna do?

[Notes play]
cheeks!

She sounds just like
a trombone!

Cheeks!
[Notes play]

Don'’t be shy, cheeks.
Come out.

I have something
to ask you.

[Plays notes]
cheeks,

You really love
to sing, right?

[Plays notes]

Wouldn'’t you love
to be able

To perform in
a concert someday?

[Plays a long note]

You would? Great!

How would you like
to perform in front of
a bunch of people tonight?

[Squeaks]

Oh, don'’t be
frightened, cheeks.

I know people make you
nervous, but trust me.

I have an idea that just
might help both of us.

What do you say?

[Plays notes]

Riley!
There you are!

The concert will
be starting soon,
and I'’m so excited.

I can'’t wait to hear what
our duet sounds like!

Heh heh!
Me, neither.

Where'’s your trombone?

Oh, uh, I guess
I forgot it.

That'’s ok.
There'’s an extra
trombone at school.

You wait here, and I'’ll
be right back with it.

Ok.

[Whistles]

[Plays notes]

Come on, cheeks.
Nobody'’s looking.

[Plays notes]

Ok. Let'’s go over
the plan again.

[Plays notes]
yes.

You hide behind that curtain
so that no one can see you.

Then, once the concert begins,

I'’ll move my hand like
I'’m playing the trombone

While you sing.

Everybody will think
that the beautiful
music you make

Is coming
from my trombone.

[Plays note]

Nella will think I'’m
a brilliant trombonist,

And you'’ll get to be
part of the concert

Without ever being seen.

[Laughs]

It'’s a perfect plan.nella: here ya go, riley.

Aah!
[Clattering]

Nella: heh!
What was that?

Um, thunder, maybe?

Gosh, I sure hope
it doesn'’t rain!

Well, the concert is
starting any minute.

[Cooing]yoo-hoo!

Hi, mom!
We better take
our places.

Don'’t be nervous.
We got this!

Yes, we do.

Are you ready?

Mm-hmm.

Captain: and now,
the soothing sounds

Of the castlehaven jazz band,

Featuring a very special
trombone duet by

Nella and riley!

[Cheering and applause]

Nella: ooh,
this is so exciting!
Try not to be nervous.

Nervous? W-why
would I be nervous?

Ok, let'’s do this!
, !

[Lively jazz music playing]

Riley, you told me you
could play trombone...

Nella,
I can explain.

But you never told me
you were so good!

Really?
Keep going!

[Music resumes]

[Crowd gasps]

It'’s the scariest dragon
I'’ve ever seen!

[Crowd screams]

Riley: oh, my gosh!

What just happened?
What was that dragon
doing behind the curtain?

She was kinda playing
the trombone.

What?
Oh, nella,

Remember when I said

I could play
the trombone
just like you?

Uh-huh.
Well,

I might have told
a tiny little,

Eensy-weensy,
giant fib.

You mean, you weren'’t
really playing
that music?

Uh-uh. I was
just pretending

While cheeks
played it for me.

Woman: oh![Cheeks playing notes]

Oh!

She'’s frightening
everybody!

She'’s not doing it
on purpose!

It'’s just
that everybody'’s
frightening her!

Aah!

We'’ve got to stop her
and calm everybody down!

My heart is bright.
Time to be a princess knight!

♪ My heart grows strong ♪

♪ It'’s time to
shine my light ♪

♪ Sword, shield, boots ♪

♪ My courage shinin'’ bright ♪

♪ Now I am ♪

♪ The princess knight ♪

Wow! I got to learn
to do that.

Let'’s go!

Man: dragon!'’Scuse me.

Pardon me.comin'’ through.

Nella! Run!

There'’s a puffy-cheeked
monster on the loose!

She'’s not a monster,
she'’s a musician.

[Cheeks plays notes]no, cheeks, wait!

Nella: I just want
to talk to you!

[Whimpers]

She'’s captured
the bell tower!

No!
She'’s just scared!

[Gasps]
oh, no!

Nella: the tower
is crumbling!

We'’ve got to do
something, riley!

Come on!
I need your help!

Use your ranger ropes!
[Grunts]

You got it,
nella!

We'’ve got to keep
the tower from cracking!

Wrap your ropes around it
like this, riley!

Oops!

Ha!

Both: whoa!

Riley:
round and round!

Ha!

That should do it.

Captain: they did it!

They stopped the tower
from crumbling!

Yeah!
Yay!

Come on, riley.
We have to help
cheeks get down.

[Cheeks whimpering]

Nella: cheeks!
Don'’t be scared, cheeks.

I just want to talk
to you a little.

[Plays notes]my name'’s nella.

I know you didn'’t mean
to scare everyone.

You'’re just
a little nervous
around people, right?

[Plays notes]

And they weren'’t
trying to hurt you

Or scare you, either.

[Plays notes]of course not.

They just didn'’t
expect to see

A dragon
at the concert.

Especially a dragon
who can make such
amazing music.

[Plays notes]riley: come on.

Let'’s head down now.
There'’s nothing to be
worried about.

Look out!

She'’s coming
toward us again!

Man: look out!
Woman: oh!

Nella: no, wait!
Aah!

Don'’t run away,
everybody!

Cheeks didn'’t
mean to frighten
you all!

What? Really?
She'’s nice?

Yeah. This isn'’t
cheeks'’ fault.

It'’s mine.

I didn'’t want you
to know

I can'’t do
everything
just like you.

Aw, riley,

You don'’t have to pretend
to know things you don'’t.

All you ever have
to be is yourself.

That'’s more than
enough for me.

[Plays a note]

Oh. Thanks, nella.

Man:
well, in that case,

Do you think
we could hear cheeks
play more music?

What do you think,
cheeks?

[Plays a note]

Ladies
and gentlemen,

It is my pleasure
to present

A trombone duet,

Featuring
my friends,

Nella and cheeks!

[Lively jazz music playing]

[Cheering and applause]

Hooray!
Amazing!

Yay!
All right!

Ready?

Cool!
Cool!

This sparkle torch
is amazing.

I know, right?
Exactly what we need

For our knight night
training tonight.

We'’re gonna need
this sparkle torch
to provide the light

For our training
when it'’s dark.

Huh?

Uh, nella,
it'’s dark.

Yeah. The sparkle
torch went out.

What'’s wrong with
this hunk of junk?

Hmm. Let me see
what we'’re working
with here.

Huh.

What is it,
garrett?
Look.

Sparkle sand?

Yeah, but not much of it.

That'’s what provides power
for the sparkle torch.

How do you know?

It'’s sparkle
science, blaine.

But if it won'’t
light up because it'’s
out of sand power,

How are we gonna do
our night training?

We need to go
to the edge
of nowhere dunes

To get more
sparkle sand.

Come on!

Our knightly steeds!

Trink! Clod! Dwayne!

We need you on
a last-minute quest!

Think you'’re up
to the challenge?

You know it!
You betcha!

[Gulps]a quest?
Nella: be right down! Ha!

[Grunts]
all right!

Yeah!
Come on, everyone.

Let'’s saddle up
for the quest.

[All cheer]

Nervous.
Nervous, nervous, nervous.

Huh? Dwayne,
are you ok?

Oh, nella.
I'’m so...

Uh...aw,
how do I say it?

Nervous?
How'’d you guess?

This is my first-ever
quest, and I'’m worried

About messing it up
for sir blaine.

Oh, it'’s ok, dwayne.

Doing anything
for your first time
can be scary,

But you'’re
gonna be great.

Thanks, nella, but I
don'’t even know
where to start.

Hmm. [Gasps]

How about you
start by guarding
the sparkle torch?

[Gasps loudly]

That sounds like
a really important job!

That'’s why I think
you should do it.

I won'’t let you
down, nella.

I won'’t let
the sparkle torch
out of my sight!

Um, dwayne?

Uh, hee hee!

I won'’t let it
out of my sight,
starting now.

Come on, everybody!

Let'’s go!

Yippee!
Yeah!

Blaine and dwayne.

Has there ever been
a more dashing duo?

Yeah!

Trinket:
shimmy, shimmy,

Sashay, sashay.

Awesome tricky
trotting, trink.

We'’ll be at the edge
of nowhere dunes
in no time.

Clod: clod-a-bunga!

[Giggles]

Branch, branch.

Branch!

Everyone'’s
way ahead of us.

Blaine: dashing duos
dash, dwayne.

Pick up the pace.uh, yeah!

No problem.
Pace being picked up.

Picking it up now.
Woo-hoo!

[Panting]

We'’re on our way now,
sir blaine.

Huh? Aah!

Oof!

Sir blaine!

I'’m so sorry.

[Grunts]

Blaine!
Are you ok?

Yeah. Fine.

See why I was
so nervous, nella?

With all my mistakes,
we'’ll never get the sand
for the sparkle torch.

Ohh! Why can'’t I be
a great steed like
clod or trinket?

[Gasps]
that'’s it, dwayne!

Maybe trinket
can give you
some pointers.

She'’s one
of the greatest
steeds I know.

One of?nella: ha ha!

Trinket'’s got
a steeding style like
no one else, dwayne.

And I'’d be happy
to share it
with you.

You see, when you'’re
steeding trinket-style,
nothing can stop you.

Not even
bursting berries.

Just do what I do,
and we'’ll have
our sparkle sand

In no time.

I just got

Great!
Then let'’s get trotting.

Shimmy--no, shimmy!

Uh, dancey,
prancey--dancey!

Aah!
Remember, dwayne,

We'’re the dashing duo,
not the splashing duo.

Uh, uh, uh!

Hee hee!
Think I shimmied

When I should
have sashayed.

Sorry, sir blaine.

Ugh!
Brr!

Oh, we'’ll never get
to the sand we need

For our sparkle torch
at this rate.

Don'’t feel bad,
dwayne.

Trinket'’s style
of steeding just
isn'’t right for you.

Clod: clod-a-bunga!garrett: woo-hoo!

Comin'’ through!
[Chomps, gulps]

Ta-da!
Clod!

What an awesome way
to get through
bursting berries!

I got to be me.

Nella: hey,

Maybe clod
can give you
some pointers!

[Gasps]
'’ja hear that,
garrett?

They want me
to teach dwayne

Everything I know
about steeding.

That'’s right, buddy,
and maybe you could
start by showing him

How to get over the gorge
that leads to the edge
of nowhere dunes.

Nella: we'’re here!

Let'’s do this,
clod-style.

♪ It'’s really
very easy ♪

♪ Here'’s the thing,

Oof!

Wow! Heh!
Cool style, clod!

Nothin'’ to it.
You just need
a strong rump and...

Both: a good jump!

Come on, dwayne.
You can do this.
You have to.

We need to get over
this gorge to get

The sand we need
for our sparkle torch.

Ok.

One super-strong
steed bounce
coming up!

Straight to nowhere dunes!

Bounce! Whoa!

Whoa! Whoa!
Oh!

Both: aah!

Ohh!
Whoa! Ooh!

Oh, my gosh!
Be careful!

Whoa!
Oh!

Both: uh-oh!

Blaine: whoa!

Ugh!

Oh.

Dwayne,
where are you going?

Home. I just keep
causing trouble, nella.

Blaine wanted us
to be the dashing duo,

Not the crashing duo.

Don'’t say that,
dwayne.

Good steeds
never give up.
I know,

But I can'’t sashay

Or shimmy
like trinket can,

And no one can
bounce like clod.

[Gasps]
that'’s it!

You shouldn'’t be
trying to steed
like clod or trinket.

You need to steed
dwayne-style!

Yeah! Dwayne-style!

Wait. What is
dwayne-style?

Garrett: whoa!

The wind'’s
really strong.

[Wind howling]

Whoa!

Garrett and blaine: help!

[Gasps] oh, no!
They'’re in trouble!

We'’ve got to help!then let'’s bounce!

And save our friends!

Then let'’s hop to it.

Oh! Whoa! Whoa!

Wow! Look at him go!

It looks
a little rough,

But dwayne'’s just
tumbling through.

Oh! Oh!

Woo-hoo!

[Grunts]

Hooray!
Yeah!

[Grunting]

Both: woo-hoo!

Garrett: whoa!
[Gasps]

Help!
Whoa!

All: whoa!

Come on!
We got to help them!

Whoa!

Yeah! Dwayne-style!

Wow! Dwayne is
one tough steed!

Nothing'’s gonna
stop me!

Whoa!
Aah!

Trinket!

This sand is
too slippery!

Hold on, trink! I'’m coming!

Oops!

I can'’t see them, nella!

Whoa!it'’s too dark!
If only we had a light!

Dwayne! That'’s it!

We can use a sparkle torch
to light our way!

Great idea! Here!
Catch, nella!

Got it!

Wow!

Wow!
Both: whoa!

Whoa!
Whoa!

I can see them, but

They'’re heading toward
the giant sand pit!

All: aah!

[Grunts]

Get ready, dwayne!

Ha!

No!whoa!

Nella: hold on, guys!
We'’re coming!

All: whoa!

All: whoa!

Both: oof!

Blaine: somebody save me!

I got you, sir blaine!

Both: oof!

Whew!
Whoa!

Whew!

Dwayne! Ah!
Thank you!

Even when things
got rough,

You tumbled
right through them.

[Gasps]
that'’s it!

Dwayne'’s a rough-
and-tumble steed

Who never gives up!

Woo-hoo!
Yeah!yeah!

Everyone ready for
knight night training?
