Saffi, who is hanging around the studio gates, is a big fan of D11D which leads an eager-to-impress Leo to claim he will be acting in the film, not just building sets. Leo with Scoop's help then tries to get the director's attention in various scenes whilst Bob's team and the director are trying to get the set and rocket ready for filming. Leo decides to give up but then has an idea. The next morning, the first day's filming is due to start but Leo is nowhere to be seen.

Just as the director calls action, the set falls apart and the pyrotechnics explode towards the lights, risking a fire. As Bob gets Dash Lightning to safety, Muck saves the lights and prevents a fire. Muck realises that he was so busy trying to meet his hero that he didn't do his work properly.

Roley, however, is still not convinced the tarmac is flat. To re-assure him Bob tells Leo to do one more test run.
