Plot
While Franklin and his friends are enjoying a day on the beach, Franklin notices a female Fizzlybear named Florence, and is immediately smitten. Florence asks Franklin to dance. Since Franklin is a terrible dancer, he runs off, however his friends accept for him, boasting that Franklin is the world's greatest dancer. Franklin now must find a way to become a great dancer, come the beach party next week. Paulie's idea of recreating a surfing environment to help Franklin feel at ease while dancing seems just the thing. But after Ella breaks Franklin's rare surf CD, what are the pinatas to do? They manage to repair the CD, but Pierre, the beach party DJ, refuses to play it. In the face of Franklin's imminent failure, the pinatas begin to panic. Then the pinata gang comes up with the idea to recreate the song themselves, and Franklin dances well, until his friends begin to argue more than sing. Franklin stumbles but then confesses to Florence that he is a terrible dancer. Florence forgives Franklin and the pinatas dance the night away.
