1	1	"Big Time Audition"	Savage Steve Holland	Scott Fellows	November 28, 2009 (2009-11-28)	101
The group of friends find out that a big time record producer is currently holding auditions and the deadline for tryouts expires within the hour. Desperate to get their friend James to the tryouts, they make a phone call to their respective mothers, looking for a ride. They finally strike a deal with the neighbor lady for a ride to the tryouts with a trade for shoveling snow for her for the rest of the winter. When they arrive, the boys soon discover that the producer that is judging for the talent search is cliche mean and sends out hopeful after hopeful, often in tears. Some, kicking and screaming. When James performs, regardless of his singing ability, the producer dismisses him, stating he "has no fire". James' friends become enraged and Kendall decides to vent his frustrations by jumping up on the judging table and singing a mockingly harsh tune about the many ways the producer resembles a "turd". This event eventually leads the producer to decide he wants to sign Kendall as his next big artist because he "sees the fire". Kendall refuses to go unless they are all four taken as a group. The third act of the movie is driven by the efforts of the production company to mold the four friends into the next big boy band. One of the more amusing sight gags occurs here as the four friends are met by the "Jennifers" in their "slow walk" intro. Their hair blowing cliche style is caused by the large fan that is pointed at them by a child actor who does commercials. He then gets paid by the Jennifers for this service. The movie ends when the four friends finally realize that they only really like to sing when they all sing together. They get serious about their efforts, come together and finally impress the record executives that have given the producer the deadline to find talent. The executives give them a three month extension to record and truly show themselves as the next big boy band. This of course will be the lead in for the ongoing series. Note: This episode was shown on November 28, 2009 as a sneak peek and special preview for the series. Song Featured: Big Time Rush
