During his audition, one of the judges and the leader of the band, Blake, quickly loses interest, leaving Alex discouraged. However, after the rejection, he plays a song to himself in the waiting room, unaware of how his guitar’s glow intensified around him, drawing the attention of both Blake and Cassidy, who is the band's drummer and the second judge.
