Isaac turned completely white and whispered, "Where's Mama?"

"I don't know." said Taylor.

Everyone turned to look at Ike.

"What do you mean 'where's Mama'?" Zac asked, confused.

"I have a confession," Isaac admitted, looking guilty.

"What is it?" Zac asked eagerly.

Isaac shot a mean look at Zac.

"I took Mama with me."

"Huh?" Tay said.

"When I packed my bags I hid Mama in my suitcase," Ike explained.

"Isaac Hanson, I thought I bought you up as a smart, intelligent boy, but you have just proved me wrong. What kind of half-brained idiot would be dumb enough to take a cat on a plane in a suitcase!" Mrs Hanson exclaimed.

"I..I...I'm sorry," Ike spluttered, once again on the verge of tears.

Taylor searched through Isaac's suitcase.

"Hey Ike, these aren't your clothes," Tay realized. He checked the tag. "It isn't yours. It's someones called Bertie Robinson."

Ike breathed a sigh of releif. "Thank goodness."

"Who's Bertie Robinson?" Jessie asked.

"I don't know," Ike answered.

"What'll we do Dad?" Zac asked.

"We'll have to take it back to the airport," Mr Hanson replied. "Come on Ike, let's go to the airport."

Ike and Mr Hanson headed off to the airport, while everyone else finished unpacking.

"Tay, did you know that Ike had bought Mama with him?" Mrs Hanson asked Taylor.

"No." said Tay.

"Who would be so dumb to bring a cat in a suitcase?" Zac said.

" Well Ike, obviously," Tay said.

"Don't any of you say that to his face," Mrs Hanson warned. "You know how sensitive he is."

"Well, think about it Mum, if any one would think to bring a cat to L.A it would be Ike." said Tay.

Mum shook her head. "Some people. What on earth was he thinking to bring a cat in a suitcase!"

"I honestly don't know!" said Taylor.

"Good old Bertie Robinson." said Zac.

"But what I can't understand is how the cat didn't get detected by the thing that picks up smells and what about the drug dogs?" pondered Mum. "Surely a dog would pick up the smell of a cat."

"There might not have been any dogs." said Taylor.

"Oh dam, if I'd known that I could've gotten my prozac on the plane without being found!" said Zac.

"Zac Hanson! I sure hope you didn't mean that!" said Mum.

"No Mum, I didn't mean it." said Zac. "I was just joking."

"Hey, Mum, where's Dad?" said Jessica, entering the room.

"He's gone back to the airport with Isaac." said Mum.

"Why?" she asked.

"Ike picked up the wrong bag."

"What a dick!" she laughed.

"Hmm, yes, now Jess, make sure all your clothes are folded when you put them away okay?" said Mum. "I don't want to come in and find them screwed up okay?"

"Mum! Don't use that word please!" said Zac, pretending to be horrified.

"I don't use it in the same way as you do, Zac." replied mum.

"Okay," Jessica started to leave the room. "Oh yeah, the reception lady asked me to ask you if you don't mind if she tells the paper people that we are staying here."

"Tell her, yes we do mind, because we want to have an enjoyable stay." said Mum.

"Mum, not that fans aren't enjoyable to have hanging around the hotel," said Zac sarcastically.

"Okay Mum." Jessica left the room.

"I don't know why you worry because sooner or later they're going to find out anyway." said Tay.

"Well then let's make the most of the days we have in peace!" said Mum.

"Well, if you hurry up and get unpacked and your father and Ike hurry up and get back from the airport I was thinking we could all go out to Planet Hollywood together." said Mum.

"Awesome!" said Zac.

"That would be pretty wild," agreed Taylor. "I still think they should open a Planet Hollywood in Tulsa."

"Me too." said Zac.

"They have the best burgers at Planet Hollywood," said Taylor. "Heaps of gunk on them."

"No way, they're no where near as good as McDonalds burgers." argued Zac.

"McDonalds is great," agreed Tay. "But Planet Hollywood is better."

"If I was old enough I would buy a share in McDonalds." said Zac.

"Ha, ha. I'm sure you would Zac." said Mum.

"No seriously I would!" said zac.

"Not that you would know how to!" said Tay.

Zac playfull wacked him.

"Ouch, you dick, that hurt!" said Tay, punching him back twice as hard.

"Yeow!!!" said Zac. "If you do that again I'll give you a briuse and you'll look ugly in the photo shoot tomorrow."

"Not that you don't look ugly naturally!" shot back Tay.

"Guy's, enough!" shouted Mum. "Zac, get in Mac's room and help him unpack."

"But I havn't finished yet!" Zac argued.

"I don't care." said Mum.

Zac grumbled to himself as he walked out the door.

"Now, Tay, I don't want you provoking Zac tonight. I'm sick of being told by waiters to make him behave himself or leave." said Mum, finishing unpacking Zac's stuff for him.

"No Mum, I won't." said Tay.

"Or Ike for that matter," she said. "I don't want him breaking down in tears over something silly again alright? That was extremely embarrasing the other day at pizza hut, remember?"

Tay stifled a laugh. "Why did he do that for any way?"

"I don't know," she replied. "He's 16 for gods sake! He has to learn to control himself in public places."

"I agree." said Tay.

Avery entered the room.

"Hey, Mum, someones at the door." she said.

"Who is it."

Avery shrugged. "I don't know."

"I'll check," Tay said.

"No Tay, I don't think you should. What if it's the papparazi?" Mrs Hanson said.

"To true," said Taylor. "You go Mum."

Mrs Hanson got up and went to the door.

As soon as she had left Zac came back into the room.

"Tay's ugly, Tay's ugly!" He chanted.

"Oh shutup Zac. If I'm ugly, why do I have so much more girl fans than you?" Tay snapped.

"Cause they're just taken by your charm, not your looks," Zac said.

"Oh piss off."

"Tay, you sweared!" little Avery exclaimed.

"No I didn't Avery. That wasn't a swear word," Tay said to Avie, who beleives everything.

Mrs Hanson came back in the room.

"It was just a delivery man with a parcel for Zac," she said.

"Let me see, let me see!" Zac cried as he ran over to his mother.

"Oh yes!" he cried. "It's the awesome new lego I ordered!"

"How did they know to deliver it here?" Tay asked.

"I told them to," Zac said.

"Oh," Tay said, feeling quite dumb.

"Hi we're back!" Ike called.

"They must have found Mama cause Ike sounds like he's in a good mood," Tay whispered.

"Hey Mama!" said Taylor.

"Oh goody Mama's here!" said Mackenzie.

Mama looked very frightened because she was in a new place and was very restless.

"She's just frightened because she's in a new place and she doesn't know where she is," explained Ike.

"Really? Not that we hadn't figured that out already." said Tay.

"Taylor! What were we just talking about?" said Mum.

"Sorry." said Tay.

"Ike, did you get you're bag back, honey?" asked Mum.

"Yep, Dad's just bringing it up, he had to pay the taxi driver." said Isaac.

"Did you give Bertie Robinson back his one?" asked Mum.

"Well, thats the problem." said Ike. "He had left my bags at the airport but the people at the airport tried everything but they couldn't find him any where."

"Really?" said Mum. "Then how are they going to get him his bags then?"

"Supposedly, he has no family connections and he is just an old hermit living out of his pocket." said Ike.

"Like you'll be when you grow up!" joked Zac.

"I don't find that very funny Zachary." said Isaac.

"I guess you skipped that little 'Ike' talk with Zac, eh Mum?" said Taylor, smiling.

Mum shot Tay a icy look saying 'don't say that young man'.

"Sorry." said Tay.

"Hi everyone!" said Dad, shutting the door dehind him, carring Ikes bag. "Phew, Ike next time pick up the right bag okay."

"Okay!" laughed Ike.

"Guess what guy's!" said Mum.

"What?" said Ike.

"We're going to Planet Hollywood for tea tonight."

"Cool! There might be some cute girls there!" said Ike excitedly.

Tay rolled his eyes at Ike and said "I am so glad I am not into that sort of stuff yet."

"I can't wait till I am!" said Zac.

Everyone laughed.

"Whats so funny about that?" wondered Avie.

"I'd better go finish unpacking," said Ike. "My khaki chinos are probably getting creased."

"They'd better not be," said Taylor. "I want to wear them tomorrow."

"Ha!" laughed Ike. "Fat chance, I'm wearing them."

"Damn."

"Well hurry dear," said Mum. "I'd like to be getting away by five."

"Okay Ma, I'll go now." Ike left the rrom.

"Okay guys, put on some good clothes and have a wash." said Mum.

Zac and Taylor went and put on some clothes.

Zac wore Taylors black 'fake adidas' top and his black jeans with white stiching.

"Good one Zac, do you actually think Mum'll let you go out wearing that?" said Tay.

Zac looked down at himself and said, "No."

"Then change then." said Tay, looking quite respectable in his dark blue jeans and red and white top.

Just then Jessica barged into the room and said "Zac you dick, give me back my hairbrush now!"

"Jessie, when we're getting changed would you mind staying out?" he replied.

"Give me my brush."

"No, get out."

"Zachary, I want my brush and I'm not leaving until you give it to me." she said.

"Zac, just give Jessica her hairbrush." said Ike.

"But I don't have one!"

"Where's yours then?" asked Tay.

"I left it at home!"

"That was clever." said Tay.

Jessica sat on Zac's bed, looking at Zac evily.

Ike sighed and threw Zac his hairbrush. "Here, use mine."

"No thanks, do you think I want nits? I don't think so."

Ike looked frustrated standing there in his Barny briefs and yellow singlet. "I don't have nits!"

"Oh here, just take it." Zac chucked Jessica her hairbrush back and she grabbed it and walked out.

He picked up Isaac's brush and ran it throw his hair. "It'll probably break the strands." he muttered.

"Ike, put some clothes on." said Tay.

Zac pulled off his top and put on his black v-neck top and his yellow and black pants.

"Bumble bee." teased Taylor.

Zac ignored him and put on his yellow doc boots.

Isaac put on his khaki chinos and a green cotton shirt. (no surprise)

"Ike, don't you have any other clothes?" asked Tay.

"These are my favourite." he replied.

"Really!" said Zac sarcastically.

"Ready guys!" called Mum.

"Coming!" called back Taylor.

"Let's go then." said Dad.

Everyone went out the door and waited for the lift. Dad locked the door. Mackenzie ran ahead.

"Mac, wait there!" said Mum.

"Ahhhhhh!!" he yelled.

"Tay, grab him before he runs down the stairs!" yelled Mum.

Taylor did.

They handed mama in at the desk to be looked after until they got back.

"That'll be no problem whatsoever." said the cheerful lady at the reception.

Outside the hotel Dad unlocked their rented van and everyone piled in and they drove into Beverly Hills to Planet Hollywood.

"Lucky the van has tinted windows." said Mum.

"Then we can't wave to people." said Zac.

"No it's good, I don't want my boys being exposed to that sort of thing at a young age." said Dad, keeping a straight face.

"Dad, you are such a poo-face!" said Avery.

"Avery, cut that language." said Mum.

"So, Hanson, what'll it be?" asked the waitress at Planet Hollywood.

"Please don't call my son's that unless they are performing." said grumpy Dad.

The waitress apoligised.

"So, guys, what'll it be?" she repeated.

"I'll have the 'Rodeo drive burger'," said Tay. "With fries and everything."

"Don't guts yourself Tay." said Mum.

"Any drinks with that?"

"Oh, a coke please." said Tay.

Ike said, "The spagetti and lasanga please."

The waitress raised her eyebrows. "Together?"

Ike nodded. "No fries either thanks."

"Drink."

"Dr Pepper please."

"Oh, so you're a Forrest Gump huh?" smiled the waitress.

Ike looked confused. "Excuse me?"

"Don't worry," said the waitress. "A private joke."

"I got it!" said Zac.

"That's good Zac, at least someone knows what I mean!" she laughed.

"Zac what are you getting?" asked Taylor.

"Jello!" he said.

"Sorry, not on the menu," said the waitress. "But we have most other things."

"Oh, dam, I guess I'll have the Hollywood burger with fries and a salad and a chocolate sunde with jello and a coke please, Kelly." he rattled off his list and called the waitress by her name tag.

"Can't have much more can you!" she said.

"Zac, wait until everyone gets dessert until you get your ice cream." said Dad

"No. I want eat it first."

"Don't worry about it Walker," said Mum. "He's just excited."

Dad rested his case.

"Jessica, tell Kelly - you don't mind me calling you that do you?" asked Mum.

"Oh no, of course not!" she said.

"Tell Kelly what you want dear."

"A hamburger and fries and a sprite please." said Jessica.

"No problem." said Kelly.

"And Avie and Mackenzie will have some wedges and a small slice of pizza please." said Mum.

"Yup."

"Walker what are you having?" asked Mum.

"I'll just have the chicken and fries with a beer thanks." said Dad.

"I'll have the fish special with a caeser salad." said Mum.

"No problem," said Kelly. "Any drinks with that?"

"Oh yes, just a wine please, dry white."

"Fine, the meals will be here soon." Kelly said and whisked their orders away.

Isaac stared after her.

"Hey Ike." said Tay.

Ike didn't answer.

"Ike!"

Ike sat up. "What!"

"Ooh, I think Ike likes Kelly!" teased Tay.

Mum and Dad laughed.

"I do not," said Isaac. "She's just quite pretty thats all."

"You do so like her Ike!" said Jessica.

"Ike has a girlfriend!" yelled Avery at the top of her lungs.

"Shut up Avie!" said Ike said, feeling quite embarrased.

"Isaac loves Kelly!" sceamed Mac really loud.

The whole restaraunt looked at their table.

"Mum! Tell them to shut up please!" begged Isaac.

"Guy's! Be quiet, you're embarrasing Isaac." said Mum.

"I'm going to hassle you about it for the whole trip now!" said Taylor.

"Yeah, me too!" chimed in Zac.

"Don't guys!" said Isaac.

But nothing could stop Avery and Mac walking up to Kelly and telling her Ike liked her in front of the whole restaraunt. She just laughed.

Isaac turned the most reddest shade of red anyones ever seen - even redder than Tay goes when he is singing.

"I am soooo shamed!" he cried and slid down in his chair not turning to look at Kelly once again throughout the rest of the night.

The remainder of the night went quite smoothly, except the time Zac got up to go to the toilet, knocking off his plate of fries in the process.

By the time they left Planet Hollywood it was nine o'clock and Dad took them for a drive around Beverly Hills, pointing out where various stars lived and stuff like that.

When they got back to the Rockapella hotel they were surprised to see staff milling around in a panic around the recption area.

"What's going on?" Dad asked a person walking by.

"I have no idea." said the person.

A staff member saw them and said, "There they are!"

The manager walked up to them and said,"I'm extremely sorry, but there seems to be a slight problem."

"What?" asked Mum.

The manager looked down. "It's about the cat."

"Oh no." said Tay.

"Where's Mama!" yelled Isaac.
