Role in the series[]
Bobby is first seen on Lunella's phone screen singing about his Beast-O 3s. He is later seen briefly singing about his new merchandise items.
After Lunella wishes to the Beyonder that Bobby would perform at her family's roller rink, he shows up seconds later stating his unluckiness of how his phone and car died at the same time. He then calls the organizer of his previously slated show, who tells him that all of the toilets in Madison Square Garden had flooded, making the venue unfit for a concert. Lunella then offers him to perform at the rink, though Bobby is skeptical of the idea. After some convincing, he agrees to it.
The Lafayettes clean up the rink, though after doing so, Bobby walks in and says he is upset because Alicia Keys had performed the night before with the same piano he was planning on using and threatens to cancel the concert if he does not find a new piano. Lunella then wishes to the Beyonder that Bobby would find the baddest piano in the world so he can "play the roof of the place."
Bobby soon shows up to the concert standing on top of his new piano. He then starts the concert and unveils an abstract teal piano. Bobby begins to play the keys, though as soon as he does, purple energy enters his body, putting him in an evil trance and causing his eyes to become a bright red. He then exclaims that he suddenly wants to destroy the rink and play the roof of the rink, revealing that the Beyonder took Lunella's wish literally and that the piano had made Bobby evil. Bobby then plays a note which turns into an attack aimed at the cheering crowd, though it is deflected by Lunella's plasma shield.
After Casey and Devil Dinosaur led the crowd outside, Bobby started playing the keys, which turned into attacks against Lunella, in her Moon Girl attire. Lunella began attacking Bobby with her bubble gun, though he retaliated by firing more attacks at her while singing the song "Coast to Coast". Lunella was then able to freeze his piano with one of her weapons, and Devil Dinosaur soon destroyed it with his tail. After his piano was destroyed, Bobby started vocalizing at a pitch that would destroy all matter around it. However, Lunella was able to hit him with one of her oversized boxing gloves, releasing him from his trance.
Bobby woke up confused and did not remember the previous events. Lunella told him to have some rest and that the concert would be called off. He then sent a video to his followers telling them to check out his new remix.
