In the midst of their travels, {{Ash}} gets hungry, so they go to get lunch. But, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} runs off and meets a young girl named {{jo|Brittany}} practicing with her twin {{p|Igglybuff}}. She stars in her own musical variety television program along with her two Igglybuff. {{an|Jigglypuff}} shows up and begins to sing, but Ash snatches her microphone and stashes it in his [[bag|backpack]]. Jigglypuff is jealous of Brittany's Igglybuff, so she bullies them when Ash and {{ashfr}} aren't looking.

{{TRT}} spies on them like usual and [[Jessie]] daydreams of having her own show with the Igglybuff. Ash and friends are enjoying the show, but Team Rocket appears, in costume on a platform, singing their {{motto}}. {{TP|James|Weezing}} uses {{m|SmokeScreen}} to distract Ash and others while they take Brittany's Igglybuff and accidentally Jigglypuff. Ash, Misty, and Brittany go to rescue Brittany's Igglybuff while {{an|Brock}} entertains the audience. The audience appear to love Brock at first, but Brock keeps singing the same song over and over again. They eventually get tired of his singing and so does Brock. Ash, {{an|Misty}}, and Brittany finds Team Rocket and battles them. When Ash, Misty, and Brittany come back, Brock is more than happy to have Brittany take over the show.
