Ep 1. Come Together

The show School of Rock begins with the first episode titled "Come Together." The episode revolves around a down-on-his-luck guitarist named Dewey Finn, played by Jack Black, who gets kicked out of his band and is facing eviction from his apartment. He is in desperate need of money and poses as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school to earn some quick cash.

Finn finds himself in front of a class of uptight and disciplined students who are accustomed to following the strict rules of their school. Instead of sticking to the boring curriculum, Finn decides to put his own musical spin on their lessons and becomes the new rock god they didn't know they needed. Finn takes on the challenge of teaching the class how to rock, recruiting his promising pupils for his own personal band, School of Rock.

Through his unconventional teaching methods, Finn begins to unearth the hidden talents and personalities of his students, who would typically have been left on the sidelines. He manages to uncover the hidden potential in even the most unlikely of students and teach them how to rock out and have fun while doing it. As Finn helps the kids develop their musical skills, he also teaches them valuable life lessons, like the importance of teamwork and pursuing your passions.

As the episode progresses, the School of Rock students face their first challenge, a Battle of the Bands competition. The competition is between two bands: The School of Rock and their rivals, No Vacancy. The event is important for both Dewey and the students because it gives them a chance to prove themselves to the world, show off their true talents, and gain respect.

Despite No Vacancy's impressive performance and presence, the School of Rock gains a dedicated following, and their energetic and invigorating performance takes the stage by storm. Even when the other band uses underhanded tactics to try and sabotage the School of Rock's performance, the band members stick together and continue to play with passion and determination. In the end, the School of Rock wins the competition, which helps to boost the students' confidence and pride in themselves and their teacher.
