As the group comes back together from their break, they experience some problems. P.diddy puts them in a 2-bed hotel room. Being that there's 6 people, that's something u would not want. Everybody is mad, especially dylan. The next day, They had to get up at 6:00 am for exercise, but dylan wasn't feelin it.

Hell week continued as the cast members washed cars, read the biograpy of Russell Simmons aloud and memorized legendary hip-hop lyrics while standing outside the Bad Boy Studios. Dylon remained distant, though with the help of his band members, began to join into the activities. Chopper and Frederick nearly came to blows, after which, P.Diddy took the whole band inside and gave them some much needed redirection. Instead of a scolding, the group meeting focused on respect, appreciation and work ethic. During hell week, one group mission was to feed the homeless at a shelter. Cast members expressed appreciation for this mission because it allowed them to give back to the community. Cast member Frederick had a revelation, instead of whining he decided that he would do whatever is required to accomplish his goal of musical success. The show climaxes when P.Diddy arrives to find the group outside singing loudly and proudly the lyrics to Juicy. The hit made famous by the late Bad Boy a

Diddy tells the band they are going to make their cd in 6 weeks instead of the usual year it takes. Babs gets an ""important"" phone call when she is asleep and Ness answers the phone. He doesn't want to wake Babs up so he doesn't and she misses the call. She then complains to Ness and everyone else that the ""important"" call was for her hair appoitment in which she blows up on Ness about. Diddy stops by to hear the band perform and thinks it's good but not great and that he's looking for greatness. He tells the band each specifically what they need to do as in appearance wise.

The Fight Part 1. Fred and Ness have always been ""boys"" but when it comes down to who is the leader, they have a problem with eachother. Everyone thinks Ness should be the leader, even Fred says this, but then later on it seems like Fred doesn't like the idea of him being leader and while in the studio they get into a word fight which leads to Ness grabbing Fred's throat. They don't speak for a couple days.

Everyone goes out to a club even though they should all be at home writing together. The only one who stays is Sara so she does. She then gets mad when the band comes home at 4 in the morning while she is sleeping and partying which wakes her up. Sara finally asks Diddy for help on her songwriting because she is having a hard time writing hip hop.

Wyclef Jean comes to help ""Da Band"". He gets a singing coach for Sara and when puffy tells Dylan that if he doesn't get his act together he won't be on the album and then Wyclef has a little talk to Dylan as well ebing that he is Dylan's idol and all.

""Da Band"" is suppose to be working on the deadline for a single just received by Diddy but the men go out to a club one night and the Dylan disapears for a whole day to see his probation officer. This upsets the band pretty bad since he didn't call or anything except leave one note. P Diddy is also tired of Dylan's attitude and arranges a meeting where Fred sucks on his thumb and doses off and Chopper just keeps pickig at his hair. Diddy gets mad and yells at them because he is trying to help them. He then tells them the studio is being shut down.

Since P Diddy has now shut down the studio the band finally comes together and starts working with eachother as much as they can without the studio. They interview 5 managers, one even being the manager from the first making the band, but they end up choosing P Diddy's manager Phil Robinson. Phil tells the how him and Diddy once sat outside their college to get something so they should do the same with Diddy so ""Da Band"" goes and waits outside Diddy's office until they get to go int which seems like it takes forever but when they do get in to speak with him they beg for forgiveness.

The fight continues....

Another Sara episode..... Sara gets mad at Chopper because everytime Tony(her husband) calls he hangs up on him telling him he doesn't know where he is or she's asleep. Sara starts having problems with her voice saying she's just ready to leave because she's missing her family too much. Diddy suprises her by flying her family in to visit her.

Dylan goes to another probation thing and doesn't come back which makes matters worse at the house. A tiny fight between Chopper and Dylan breaks out in which Dylan throws a bottle of water at Chopper and jumps on him. Babs tells Dylan that Diddy said he will be leaving if he doesn't get his act together.

Diddy warns Da Band that this is when it gets difficult to stay together as a group, because a demanding tour schedule and being away from family and friends can take its toll on young stars. Call P. Diddy a prophet, but the issues begin almost immediately. Sara finds out her mother is going into surgery and decides she needs to go home even though Da Band have a show that night. Chopper isn't very sympathetic and thinks they should leave only for life and death situations. Regardless of the lack of support, Sara catches the next plane home, leaving her band mates to perform without her. Chopper and Fred make up for Sara's absence from the show by bringing girls on stage to shake their tailfeather. To show their appreciation, they invite the girls to party with them that night. Apparently,
