Mr. Zilla's OpusEpisode Number: 3 Season Num: 1 First Aired: Monday September 15, 2003 Prod Code: n/a |
Willy is just beginning to develop his talents in the brass section of the school band, when Principal Malfactor shuts down the Music Program, to divert money to buy the Football team new equipment. When Rock finds out, he offers to fund the Music Program himself, on one condition... that he teach the music class!
All the students are hyped about the cool new faculty member...except Willy, whose cover is blown by his Dad's presence at school. Meanwhile, when the parents hear that the infamous Rock Zilla is molding their children's impressionable minds they demand his resignation. Before the parents' protest can get too heated, Rock understands that as much as he wants to be a bigger part of Willy's life, he has to give his Son some space. So Dad quits, slyly telling the parents, "Who needs Music in school anyway? I didn't, and look how well I turned out!" That's all it takes for the parents to demand that the program be immediately reinstated!

In this episode, Rock calls Willy his "boy" but his identity wasn't revealed about him being Rock Zilla's son.
(edit)
We learn when Rock was born, he screamed like he usually does now. So that means that he was born with his talent.
(edit)
It seems Rock still wore his rock star make-up when he was a kid.
(edit)
We learn Rock's dad was a famous cellist.
(edit)
(A flashback: Rock as a teenager waiting on a bus stop with his father who was showing off his cello and wearing a tuxedo.)
Rock: Dad! Do you have to wear that in public?!
Old woman: Oh, look! It's the famous cellist, (?) Zilla! Would you be so kind as to play me something?
Mr. Zilla: Certainly.
(plays tune)
Rock: Dad! Could you be any less groovy?! (edit)
