Western Animation / My Scene Jammin In Jamaica

Go To

My Scene: Jammin' in Jamaca is the first animated production based on the My Scene toyline.

Madison is the manager of a band, Urban Desire, which is made up of River, Hudson, Ellis and Sutton. After the band wins the semifinals in the Beat to Beat contest, they book a trip to Jamaica for the finals, but Barbie, Nolee, and Chelsea are left behind, and raise money for the trip to support the others. Once the whole gang gets together in Jamaica for an awesome vacation, Barbie is upset when River, the band's leader who happens to be her boyfriend, starts spending all his time with Madison. This causes a rift between the two girls which is eventually resolved.

Tropes:

  • Bittersweet Ending: More on the sweet. While Urban Desire is disqualified from Beat to Beat, Barbie reconciles with Madison and River, and sets up an afterparty concert for the band to still perform in Jamaica, where they get noticed by a record producer.
  • Book Ends: The special starts and ends with an Urban Desire performance.
  • Clingy Jealous Girl: Barbie gets jealous of River spending more time with Madison on the vacation and later accuses Madison of "stealing" River from her.
  • Dance Party Ending: For which Urban Desire is providing the music.
  • Feud Episode: Between Barbie and Madison for the second half of the special due to River spending more time with Madison.
  • Friendship Trinket: Madison carries a gold locket with a picture of herself and Barbie in it.
  • It's All About Me: This applies to both Madison and Barbie in a downplayed manner. They get better in the end.
    • As Barbie can already be quite the Attention Whore, she is of course upset when her boyfriend River repeatedly blows her off for things he has to do for Beat to Beat, along with him spending more time with Madison, and tries to get him to spend time with her. She even dreams about River inviting her to a romantic date, where he just pays attention to her.
    • While Madison repeatedly makes it clear that she does not see River in a romantic light, she loves how their time in Jamaica is all about music, obviously enjoying herself with River in a platonic manner, and hides how sad she is that things change, after Barbie, Chelsea and Nolee join them on the trip. She wants to pretend that everything is still the way it was and monopolizes especially River's time to do so, ignoring Barbie's insecurity about it.
  • Just Friends: Shortly before the competition, River and Madison make it clear that they are exactly this, after Madison tells everyone that River is more like a brother to her, which they seal with a hug. Unfortunately, Barbie misunderstands the situation...
  • Little "No": Madison does this when she finds out that the band was disqualified from the competition.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: River spending almost half the day to find an upset Barbie causes Urban Desire to miss their slot in Beat to Beat, resulting in the band being disqualified.
  • Not What It Looks Like: Barbie catches Madison and River hugging, making it look like her friend stole her boyfriend away. She rushes off crying as Madison and River try to explain themselves.
  • Poor Communication Kills: Urban Desire wouldn't have been disqualified if Barbie and Madison were honest with each other about how they were feeling.
  • Sad-Times Montage: Barbie and Madison missing and feeling bad for what they did to each other along with River being upset, set to the song "Radiowave".
  • Single Tear: Barbie sheds one when she sees River hugging Madison affectionately.
  • Vacation Episode: Urban Desire hosts a free trip to Jamaica for the finals.
