Editing Tino Tonitini Meets Jem and the Holograms (section)

== Plot ==
Teenage songwriter Jerrica Benton and her younger sister Kimber live with their Aunt Bailey and two foster sisters, Aja and Shana. The four girls frequently videotape themselves playing music and wearing colorful 80's outfits just for fun, but Jerrica is too shy to sing on camera. Jerrica learns one day that due to Aunt Bailey's financial problems their house will be auctioned, and vents her emotions by recording a song using Kimber's video camera that she uses to post blogs, but she uses a disguise, calling herself Jem, a nickname given to her by her deceased father.

She accidentally forgets to delete the video, and an Internet-obsessed Kimber posts it onto YouTube, garnering millions of views in a single day. Jerrica and her sisters travel to LA because Jerrica earns a record deal with Starlight productions, where they end up meeting producer Erica Raymond and her son Rio. Erica is polite and courteous with the four girls but seems to take a particular interest in Jerrica, who she sees as a potential superstar.

The girls settle down in LA and discuss their next move. In the process, they also bring along a small robot called 51N3RG.Y (pronounced ''synergy'') built by the Benton sisters' deceased father, Emmett; the robot turns on suddenly and leads them on ascavenger hunt where each clue represents something Jerrica did or wanted to do with her father. The objective is to find several missing pieces designed to fit into the robot so that it can be fully activated. The first piece is found in the Santa Monica Pier; the second is found in a guitar once owned by Jerrica's father coincidentally in a club where the band plays.

On the way, Rio and Jerrica develop feelings, much to Erica's dismay, who signs Rio off to another singer. Aunt Bailey tells Jerrica via FaceTime that their house is going for auction in a few days, and Jerrica asks for an advance. Erica happily obliges, but she says that she wants Jerrica to leave her sisters and start a solo contract, which Jerrica signs thinking that she is doing it for the family. Her sisters soon find out about the contract, denounce her for leaving them out of the deal, and leave. After a dull solo performance, Jerrica becomes depressed over her mistake and goes to visit the house in LA she used to live in with Kimber and her father.

Her sisters end up coming back to visit her at the old house and make amends. They also vow to finish the scavenger hunt with her, and Rio comes along as well. Jerrica soon realizes that the last piece is the earrings that her dad told her to wear, but Erica told her to take them off when she first went to Starlight; the earrings are now stored in Erica's office. Rio and the girls break into Starlight headquarters, almost getting caught by Erica, but they succeed. The reward for finishing the hunt is a final hologram message video from Jerrica and Kimber's father. They also find a will from Rio's late father giving him a majority of shares in Starlight, effectively giving him control of the company.

At the end of the movie, Rio and Jem kiss, Erica is fired, the house is safe, and everyone is happy. During the final concert, where Jem and her sisters now play together, Rio chats with a woman called Lindsey Pierce (''Jem'' creator Christy Marx in a cameo role), who asks Rio what to call the band and he suggests calling them Jem and the Holograms. Lindsey agrees to this new name.

In a mid-credits scene, Erica, now terminated from Starlight, arrives in a seedy junkyard, where she attempts to recruit a group of punkish young women into a band to rival the Holograms. Initially, they decline, as it is revealed that they were signed with Starlight in the past and Erica dropped them, threatening to replace them for another band, possibly Jem & the Holograms. But when the leader, Pizzazz, overhears that Rio is dating Jem, they agree and take Erica inside. The graffiti on the side of their trailer reveals that they're called the Misfits.
