Think fast! All right, you good? All good? See you, good luck. [Music] Coach, it's our last first day of free education, and I want to cry. Please don't. Oh, what's this now? New record, folks! A girl is dancing at 7:28 a.m. I'm just celebrating our last first day of free education. Can you take it, Adal? This is all natural, Rout baby. What's his deal? So obnoxious. Okay, let's go. So glad we're at the same school this year, McKenna. McKenna! All right, Gabriella, here. 10 4Ms and an email for Emily. PR for me. You're not alone; she's blowing up the cheer group chat. Is this going to be an all-season thing? Why did you make me join Dron? Dron Ley. [Music] Mr. Ley, starting the year off with a low bar. Mr. Ley, I'm just managing expectations. There's only one way to go from here. All right, let's go to our seats, shall we? Let's discuss the summer reading. Dallas, thank you. Kick us off.
Yes, yes. Well, I thought that the book we read, Romeo and Juliet, was interesting. Interesting? Please be specific. The ending was tragic because Romeo and Juliet had their whole lives ahead of them, but instead, they threw it all away for some meaningless hookup at a party. So, yeah, tragic. Anyone care to counter? I don't know, maybe they just wanted to have a little fun. Is that so bad? They died.
Okay, let's open our copies to Act 5, Scene 3. Okay, how you feeling, Coach? Excited? Yeah, feeling good, feeling strong. To what do I owe a pleasure? I noticed you've eased up in practice a little bit this week. Are you sure now is the time you want to scale back in their conditioning? Mr. Ley, we just wrapped up on two days, so the team's already got their legs back. I just want to make sure Dr. gets as much time as possible with those receivers. If I overwork him too much through the preseason, we run the risk of injury.
Of course, of course. I just, as you know, Dren's committed to Waco, but there's a very real possibility he could be starting quarterback there. Now, I don't need to tell you how huge of an opportunity that is. We need to do everything we can to keep him focused on track for your distractions. You got it. Thanks. [Music] Coach, I want to see you bring the heat. I want to see you bring the flavor. FL, come on! Point your toes! Stronger! [Music] Arms! Jeez, it's practice, not the Super Bowl. Funny. All right, line it up, ladies. Time to review. Go fight! [Music] Win! All right, all right, boys. Up downs followed by wind sprints. Fact is over according to your schedule. I know my schedule. So does your dad, apparently. What? What do you say?
Hey, don't worry about it. We'll talk about it later. Now go join your team captain. Sure you don't want to find your birth dad? Maybe he'll adopt me. Two for one. That means W. He's just a prick. Difficult. You can't let him get in your head. I don't. Oh, he's there rent-free. Yo, Chase, go long! Damn! Nice catch! Cheer! Not my name! Quarter [Music] back! Who is that? Gabby? She's head cheerleader, class president. I heard she just broke up with her boyfriend. We all know Gabby. I mean that one, the new cheerleader. She's in my English B, Dallas. Brian. She just transferred here. I think she's a dancer, theater kid. Brian, and as in new coach's sister? Totally off-limits. That explains the cannon.
Detro GLE! Take your knee! Take your KNE! All right, good job today, team. Get your cuz we're back at it again tomorrow. Wolves on three! Wolves on me! 1, 2, 3, wolves! Dron, my office. A lot of D1 schools have reached out about you. I know that you're verbally committed to Waco, but I wanted to let you know that you've got options. Wow, options! Thanks, Andy Reed. Dron, like you got a serious shot at going pro. You're talented, but you need an attitude adjustment. Like I'm a quadruple legacy at Waco. There are no options. My dad's already booked my flight in May for summer conditioning.
So, but is that what you want? Uh, I don't know. Never thought about it. We got some time. Just keep your head down, show up, and do the work, and think about it. Whatever you say. Look, I get it. I was a star quarterback too. The pressure can be overwhelming in this town. So if you ever need to talk, my door's always open. Sure.
Hey, cheer! Sorry about earlier. My A is usually spot on. I'll take your word for it, quarterback. You don't have to. You can ask around. I'm pretty much a football legend. Wow, yeah, your modesty is so refreshing. It's his most admirable quality. I was just apologizing to Dallas for almost taking her head off at practice, and I was just explaining to Drayton that I can defend myself. D, go long! Longer, dude! Come on! Careful, that's my dang car! Crap! I'm sorry! It's fine. Are you okay? Yeah, it'll be okay. Let's take it to the shop, and I'll see if my mom can pick us up from there. I can follow you and give you all a ride back. Make up for my clumsy brother. Thank you, that's really sweet. Could you give me a ride to my studio instead? I got you. Okay, let's go. You should be more careful, bro. Shut up, Chase! [Music]
You're the vision of everything I [Music] want. F, do WR me. My body, come [Music] on, looking [Music] good. I've been working on my audition all summer. Nathan's going to record me, Gabby will edit, and this time next year, I will never have to mop the sweat off a ballet floor again. It won't be the same without you, you know. The dean at Summit Dance Conservatory and I go way back. I could call him up, put in a good word. It might be nice to have a backup plan. Cal Arts is the only plan. You sound just like your mama. I just want you to have options. Cal Arts is an incredible program, but it's extremely competitive, which is why I've been training for years. I literally just dance circles around everyone else.
You're an incredible dancer, but you're not ready. Not yet. The bar at Cal Arts is nearly impossible, especially for video auditions, but not out of the realm of possibility. Now you really sound like your mama. You really want to do this? I do. Then you need to get out of your head. I can see you thinking about the choreo. You're too rigid. You need to be spontaneous. But it's a routine! We follow the steps! But it has to feel like it's the first and last time that you'll ever do it. You'll get there. You'll lock up.
Hey, it was my turn to do the shopping. Yeah, I was on my way back from practice, figured I'd bang it out. One less thing on your plate. What a sweet legal guardian. You can just say brother. Okay, oo, are you making fried rice this week? Of course! You thought going to teach me how to make it? When you are ready, young Padawan. How's your day? Awful! Besides the car, Alicia said I'm never getting into Cal Arts and I should quit while I'm ahead. What, did she actually say that? I'm not ready, but I'll get there. That sounds about right. But now I have to throw out my whole routine and start from scratch, and it'll be hours on top of school and work, and Gabby convinced me to join cheerleading. Think card say that you need extracurriculars. I know, so I need to put my head down and focus.
Look, I hear you, but in the meantime, you're letting your senior year pass you by before it's even started. Maybe joining cheer or going to a party or, dare I say, a date? I don't date. Even though you don't date, you know, actually enjoy being 18. That doesn't sound so bad. You know, you're not half bad at this, inspiring the youth. Than y, what else? What else? We are in [Music] here.
Hey, Cher! Here to break my front window too? I'm sorry about earlier. This should more than cover it. I'm not your charity case. It's not like that, all right? It was my fault, and I want to make it right. Okay, thank you. I'll get you back. No way! Consider it my idiot tax. Well, in that case, I think you're short. Guess I'll see you at school. [Music] Mr. Douglas agreed to write my letter of recommendation for Princeton. Yes, Gavs, that's huge! Thank you! I'm so excited! I really feel like...
Hey, guys! Dallas, your car in the ICU having open-heart surgery, but thanks for asking. Your presentation on the radioactive nature of bananas was fascinating but also terrifying. Thank you! Don't worry, you'd have to eat a million bananas to actually die of radiation poisoning. When you're valedictorian, you're going to crush your speech. Thank you, that's very sweet. Dallas, come still with us, y Jo. Wow, cheers joining us! Wow, it must be your lucky day, quarterback! So, you coming to the party tonight? Not really my scene. Well, if you change your mind, be happy to give you a ride, unless a boyfriend's a jealous type. I don't have a jealous boyfriend because that's a super toxic, and B, I don't date. Not yet, but every rule has exceptions. Not this one! No, I'm out of here the day after graduation, so there's no point.
I guess, but what? You don't ever have an itch that needs to be scratched? Thanks for your concern, but I'm just fine. I don't know why everyone's so obsessed with him. He's not as charming as he thinks he is. I don't know, I S to vibe. He is so smug and cocky. He's hooked up with half of our squad. Did you see his hickeys? Plural! Wow, it's not shaming, it's a little off-brand. Just an observation, but come on! Like a jock who's never had a girlfriend? So cliché! Girl, you're so intim! It's literally obvious to everyone but you. Fine, maybe you really do hate him, but what if some other great, equally hot guy came around? Would you give him a chance? No, because I'm doing just fine on my own, and I don't have time.
Dallas, it's our last year! I'm in 5 APs, two clubs, and I said yes when Josh invited me to the party tonight. H, it's almost like less about timing and more about not letting your guard down. Ouch! I'm sorry, but it's my job as your bestie to be honest with you, even when it's hard, 'cause I love you. I love you too! What? I couldn't hear that. Fine, I love you too! So, you'll come to the party with me? Please, please, please, please! I have no problem admitting I'm crushing hard on Josh, and I need my wingwoman. Fine! Thank you! You thank you! Can't wait to return the favor, straighten or otherwise.
5, 6, 7 [Music] 8! I need more emotion! [Music] Stop! I'm not feeling it, and neither are you! Okay, what does that mean? It means that you're still thinking too much. Stop holding yourself back! Let yourself go! It's getting late. You can keep going, but just lock up afterward. Actually, I have plans tonight. Okay, I love that for [Music] you! Class is here! I'm going to find Josh. I'm going to go find a corner to sit in. No, if you're going to wingwoman me, I need you close! What if I spread all the signals, and he was just like being nice? Stop! He looks at you the way that Nathan looks at Domino's cheesy [Music] bread! See? You look beautiful! Thanks! Space buns took a lot longer than I expected.
Okay, well, my work is done. If you need me, I will be anywhere else. Cheer, you're like obsessed with me! Yeah, you'd certainly like to think so. I'm just trying to give Romeo and Juliet some privacy. Hopefully, it's more than a, how did you put it, a meaningless hookup at a party. Wow, now who was obsessed with him? Thank you! [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Surprised you're here. Doesn't seem like your vibe. It's not. Neither is this town. So suffocating. Everyone else seems happy. You think maybe it's you? I can't tell if you actually mean that or you're trying to neg me. Which version gets me a date? None! Just 'cause you're hot doesn't mean everyone wants to date you! So you think I'm hot? No! I mean, yes! Like, objectively speaking. Then, oh, you're so smok! It's infuriating! Chill! Cheer, you're hot too! I know! Yo, Drayton, ready for some beer pong rematch for last week?
A man, I'm out! Practice tomorrow! Respect, man! You could play with water! You want to play? You realize I'm undefeated? Are you scared I'm going to take your title? You wish! Can I make it interesting? I'm listening. If I win, I get to take you on that date, but if I lose, I'll never ask again. [Music] Come [Music] [Applause] [Music] on! You know you can forth and now and let me take you to dinner! Are you always the entitled? How about Italian? Y dude, I thought you weren't playing! Man, I'm not! I'm hydrating! No way! Goodbye, Dayon! Yo, she totally kicked your ass, man! Cut your losses, quarterback! That's two out of three! I know you're used to getting what you want, but you lost fair and square! Sorry, not sorry! You're really doubling down! You know, it kind of makes me think, you know, just how much fun we could have.
I don't know what kind of games you're trying to play, but I'm out! Dre, babe, I was hoping to see you here! We got a beer! Go for a swim like last friend! Did you remember your B Su? That's the fun in [Music]! That hit me! D! Hey, Josh asked me to grab a bite. Are you okay to get home? And would you be pissed if I went? I would be pissed if you didn't go! Don't worry, I'll catch you a lift, but I expect a full report tomorrow! Thank you! I'll tell you everything! Okay, I love you! Bye! Cheers! Cheers, man! You're not messing around! Nope! Night, Chase! Night! [Music] Night! Crap! Still no service! I hate this town! No, I love walking more steps! Jesus! I thought I was about to be violently murdered! Are you insane? Didn't your parents ever tell you not to walk alone at night? Get on! I'll give you a ride! Yeah, I would rather walk 15,000 miles than get on your bike! Your house is the other way! Oh, [ __ ]! It's on drunk! Don't say, "Oh no!" Nathan can't see me like this! Earth is spinning! [Music] Here! You ever been on a bike before? No! [Music] Well, I'm honored to be your first! [Music] You live here? Home sweet home! Guess you do always get what you want! Is this what you want? Want? No, maybe! I don't know! I can take you back to Gabby's, but I'm pretty sure I saw her and Josh Lee together! So, yeah, it's nice that they're so into each other! It almost makes me wish that I wish! It's okay! Let's get you inside!
Yeah, okay, babe! You think you're so smooth with your motorcycle and your smile and your shirtlessness! I bet this was just all a giant scheme to get me into bed! [Music] And so it wasn't a giant scheme? Excuse me? Because I'm a jock, I don't understand consent? Maybe you're not so cliché! [Music] Good night! [Music] H! [Music] Make me more upset that you blew off the dinner or that you forgot about it? No excuse! I went out! It's what you do in high school! You blew off a dinner that I arranged months ago that we've been prepping for for weeks! It was one dinner! It was an alumni dinner with the head coach of Waco! What is the matter with you? Any idea how humiliated I was? I add it to the list! Excuse me? Nothing! I wanted to go to a party! Is that so bad? You will have plenty of time for parties! Right now, you need to buckle down and get your head in the game! I'll go distract them so you can sneak out! Okay, okay, thank you! I'm so, I'm so sorry to... I well, we didn't... I'm going to, I'm going to [Music] go! You're in season! All right, act like it! Honey, I think you made your point! It's not going to happen again, right? Right! All right, get dressed! I'll drop you off at the gym! What about Josh? He's already there! No, you can tell me whenever you're ready! Gabby, for the last time, nothing happened with Dayton! I swear! And you still haven't talked to him since last week! I've been avoiding him! It seems like he's back in football mode! I don't want to talk about it! Well, these college apps are killing me! Should rename it Collegiate Trauma Dumping! I know! It's like, do I write about being broke or my dead parents or the fact that the Earth is slowly dying so nothing really matters? I think they want dead parents! I know! And that's exactly why I've been avoiding it!
Hey, wait! What are you wearing to the away game? Our Saucy Sapphire uniform, obviously! But I mean, like, for the rest of the trip! Are there parties or post games or, you know, any chance of hanging out with a certain QB? I'm not obic-defining that with an answer! Did I mention I saw Drayton yesterday when I was with Josh? Y, are pretty serious, huh? Yeah, I think he's going to ask me to be his girlfriend this weekend! Oh my God! Are you going to hard launch? Oh, but yeah! Anyway, J was asking about you! He only wants what he can't have! Well then bring this! You can really, really make him suffer! Just in case! How did you find that? Just bring [Music]! All right, wheels up at 10! Chip chop! We're burning daylight! All right, listen up! Listen up! Although we're leaving school, all school rules still apply, so let's behave like it! Go, wolves!
Hey, uh, so tonight there's some coaches from Waco coming to watch how you've been progressing! Yeah, my dad mentioned that! Mhm! I hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty to make a couple calls to get some other folks excited! Alabama, USC, UCLA, and Notre Dame! You didn't have to do that! I know, but no pressure! Just play like you always do, and you'll have lots of options! Thanks, coach! Means a lot! Sorry, Dallas, can I steal your seat for a second? Gabby and I just have to strategize! And we've gone over everything! No, but we haven't confirmed our face paint design or our ponytail height! Why am I the only one putting fires out around here? Okay, okay, yeah, thank you! Sorry, yeah, come here! Okay, it's me or Chase! All right, and he's a man-spreader! No offense, dude! No offense taken! [Music] Man, surprised your seat's empty! I'm saving it for you! It's great! No, thanks! Come on! It's Brin food! You need nutrients! I win! Nice catch! I'm not just going with my [Music] hands! Now what we're going to do right here is set the score! Look around you! We got a whole room for the [Applause] m, and we hit the field like all night! Like offense, like defense! Like it sounds like trade the rules in the game! The same! I [Applause] [Music] [Applause] speak! I [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] incle baby little diry thing! I want to get Josh played so well tonight! I know I'm being biased, but he definitely set Drayton up multiple times! He really did crush it! They all did! My cheers are only half fake! You can't wear that! Yes, I can! Because I'm not going! Not this again! I'm stressed about my audition! I've been slacking, and no offense, but it's a little bigger than some stupid football afterparty! You know, for the players getting scouted, this game I to earn them a full ride to college! Drayton included! So the stupid afterparty may not be worth celebrating to, but it is for some! I'm going to go! You do you! Come on, please don't do this! One in the lobby is working, and it has better options! Post-game munchies for the party in Chase's room! Very loud, very crowded, and everyone is very drunk! Darn! So sad to miss it! Did I mention it was 90°? Which one do you want? Those cheesy things on me, and they say chivalry is dead! So if you're not going to Chase's, what are you doing? I was trying to work on my solo, but I'm feeling stuck! Why? I don't know! My dance teacher, she said some stuff, and it got in my head! Fine! Um, you should get back to your party! It's not my party! But isn't it? You know, actually, I was thinking of doing something else! Want to join? Okay, but let me change! All the coaches came out to me after! All five schools are interested! That's amazing! Yeah, I know! It's pretty cool! Uh, doesn't really matter! Waco's the plan! Why Waco? It's a great school! Yeah, but so is not D! Yeah, but my dad, his dad, and his dad's dad, and his dad's dad dad all want Waco, so that's the plan, I guess! Plans can change! Where are we going? I can't get into any trouble! Nathan will kill me! Relax! I got us! Come on! Come! [Music] On! Trey, down! SE! Is this Dallas? She's cool! We just want to hang out! Okay, only because it's you! My God, thank you! I volunteer at Sports Camp every summer! I've known Vinnie since his knee started coming years ago, so he always hooks it up! So what do you think? Like, I know it's not exactly the kind of dance you do, but I figured it couldn't [Music] hurt! Sorry, was this a dumb [Music] idea? This is awesome! [Music] Come [Music] on! Okay, no, no, no, no, no! This is salsa! It's all about the [Music] hips! I definitely don't know how to move my hips! Move to the [Music] beat! Okay, no, it's Sor! Right! Follow my rhythm! Okay, okay! You're going to follow my seat! Okay, 1, 2, 3! 1, 2, 3! Nice! Better! [Music] Like I'm going to need lessons if I'm ever going to keep up with you! Oh, so you want to go dancing again? As friends, of course! Name a time, and I'm there! As friends, of course! I think maybe I had the wrong impression of you earlier! What? That I was a brainless man-hoing quarterback? But don't forget ego! A maniac! And, uh, what's your impression now? That I not be so bad! Where the hell were you, Nate? I don't want to hear it! I expected this much from him, but not from you! Hey, it wasn't her fault! You're lucky I don't B you next week for breaking the rules! Okay, let's all take a breath! It's late! We were very worried and had to contact Principal Canther, so we'll deal with all this on Monday! Yeah, go to your room, both of you! Dallas! [Music] This is a serious infraction, and it's extremely disappointing! Dren, I've gone easy on you in the past, given your talent and your family's history, but this time I can't look the either way! Sneaking out on a school trip, fraternizing, entering a 21-plus establishment! These aren't small potatoes! Great! Now I'm craving fries! Look, I can only speak for myself! This was uncharacteristic at best, reckless at worst! I'm so sorry, and I am ashamed of our actions! You're both suspended for a week! What? No! That'll be on my record, and Cal Arts will see it! Please, can't I do community service or wash the graffiti off lockers? You both violated the rules, but Principal Canter, actions have consequences! Dallas, hold up! Dron Francis Ley, get in the car now! I just want to talk to her! Absolutely not! I obviously can't trust you! The two of you are not to see each other again! Wo coaches are coming to games you won't be playing in! What were you thinking? I was... No, you weren't! Too busy throwing away your entire future for one night of fun! It's time to grow up! [Music]
I picked up some shifts this week, and I'm finally going to take that donation box to Goodwill! Thanks, Nate! I'm sorry for sneaking out and getting suspended! I'm keeping my head down until my audition! I promise it will not happen again! Just please stop this silent treatment! I think I overreacted! I mean, you've never been in trouble before! And I told you I wanted you to act like a normal teenager! So careful what you ask for, I guess! So you're not mad anymore? No, I'm not mad! I never was mad! I was just disappointed! That's worse! Look, as a coach, I'm losing my quarterback for a week in season, and I look incompetent to my boss! And as my brother, I was terrified something happened! I thought that we were closer than that! We are! Hey, I should have texted you at the very least! Yeah, look, when Mom and Dad died, I didn't hesitate to drop out of Oregon, and I would do it again in a heartbeat because we're all that we got, kid! We got to protect each other! You're right! I'm sorry! I forgive you! You know, Han Solo always used to call Luke "kid." They were like the same age! Are you trying to tell me you're not a kid anymore? By law, I'm an adult! No! Yeah, wow! If Mom and Dad could see you now! [Music] I miss them every day! Me too! Me [Music] too! Ah, you're muscling through it, and you're losing your balance! The tension is showing all over your dang face! It's hard! Life's hard, honey! What are you doing here? There's only so many video games one man can play, and I wanted to apologize! You should go! No, you should stay! Come here! You can help me with something! Okay, face each other! Come on, y'all! I don't have all day! Okay, you're going to have a conversation with your bodies! No talking! Let your feelings trigger the movement! Look, I'm not a dancer! Everyone's a dancer! Only move when you feel something! Surrender! Just let go! [Music] That's [Music] it! Find that connection! Stay [Music] open! Go to slow! [Music] Were you anticipating? No! Exactly! You were just going with the flow! Look, I'm sorry for... I have nothing to say to you! I'll do anything to make it up to you! [Music] Please, you missed a spot! [Music] I never thought he'd suspend us! That's not... and I know that's not the point! I was embarrassed, but I should have stood up for you or at least not made it worse! It was shitty! It was really shitty! And now my audition is going to have to be 10 times better for Cal Arts to overlook a suspension on my record! I'm in the same boat with Waco and Scouts! I'm sorry! It's okay! I know I also chose to sneak out! It wasn't all you! I like Alicia! Maybe I'll start taking lessons! You need them! I didn't think I was that bad! So how's your solo going? Awful! I only have 2 months left, and I'm not even close to ready! And I have to make the judges feel my emotion, which is hard enough in person, let alone through a video! You have to audition through video? Yeah, and it sucks because in-person ones are more personal, and you have higher chances of getting in! That does suck! Wait, but when you toured the campus, did you get any FaceTime with the dean or anything? No, I've never seen it, but I've done my research! Wait, so this is your dream school, and you haven't even seen [Music]? It would be great to go! We should go! I'll book our tickets! I'm serious! I'll cover it! Consider it idiot tax 2.0! What about school? We're suspended! We'll be back by Monday! You're crazy! No, I'm not! Look, you work so hard! You deserve to see Cal Arts! It's literally all you talk about! It's your dream! Well, good morning, folks! We'll be landing shortly in Los Angeles, where it is a sunny 74°! [Music] The studios have sprung floors, and I can observe a level 402 class in 15 minutes! Are you okay if I go? Yeah, uh, I got some things I need to do! Hot date? Something like that! Uh, enjoy your class! We'll meet up later! Okay, thank you! Thank you! I'll see you later! [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Let's go! Come on! [Music] You know how sometimes you hype something up so much that the reality can't possibly live up to it? Oh no! This is so much better than I imagined it! Good! I never thought I'd be caught dead in a mass, but I get the appeal! If you show that to anyone, it's just for me! Okay, it's my turn! Truth or dare? I welcome the chaos! Dare! I dare you to prank call Josh and ask if he has any blowup dolls for sale! Okay, it's ringing! Mhmm! Hello? Yes, I'd like to place an order for a blowup doll! My airline lost the luggage! Uh-huh! Good call! I'll try that! Cheers! Okay, what? What did you say? A true professional gave me the number to a sex shop! It's your turn! Truth or dare? M! Truth! Why Cal Arts? My mom went to Cal Arts! She was such an amazing ballerina! I loved watching her dance! Being here makes me feel close to her! Close to both my parents! Is your dad a dancer too? God, no! He had no rhythm, but he just loved making my mom smile! That sounds like they were good parents! They were the best! And today, walking around campus, all the places she used to go, I feel like she's here! Sorry, I know that sounds crazy! No, it doesn't! No, it's okay! I know it does! No, I get it! You do? It's my turn! There! I dare you to show me one of the famous straight and L he moves! I don't know what you're talking about! Oh, Dre babe, you want to go skinny dipping? Are you jealous? No, curious! Truth or dare? Truth! Do you want me to kiss you? Yes! [Music] Trey, I think we should get some sleep! We got to fly home tomorrow, right? Friends! Valencia's Sunny! Cal Arts is incredible! Everyone is so friendly and talented! As much as I'd miss you, I really hope that you get in! You deserve it! And how's Drayton? No, no, no! We were just friends! Really! It's not worth it! It's too complicated! Oh, hey! I got to go! Love you! Thanks for the coffee! It's the least I can do! Thanks for bringing me here! Anytime! Idiot tax 2.0! Remember? So what are your plans when we get home? We should grab a bite! I really should spend more time with my brother! Right, right! How about Monday? Maybe after seeing how good the dancers are here, I need to work on my routine! Okay, yeah, I guess! You let me know when you're free! We'll definitely see each other at games! Bud, you called him bud! Why not castrate him? It would have been less painful! It just came out! I just can't believe you two went away and nothing major happened! Well, almost! Oh my God! I knew it, Gabby! It was just kissing, and I wish I could take it back because now it's so complicated! What's complicated? Literally, what? You like him, he likes you! Name one thing that's complicated! We're graduating soon, and it's going to have to end like everything inevitably does, and I'd rather save myself the heartbreak! Oh boo! That ship has sailed! Definitely! CAU feeling! No, no! I mean, do I like spending time with him? Sure! It's a lot of fun, and he's really charming and surprisingly very thoughtful! But I don't... I maybe I like him! You more than like him! Oh, hang on one sec! It's Josh! Hey, babe! Yes, it works for dinner later! Okay, love you too! Bye! Love! Did you say love? A lot happened while you were away! And no shade, but Josh and I are very emotionally available! Gabby, I'm so happy for you! You should try it! What if he... you could? What if forever? At some point, you just have to go for it! Hope for the best! Oh, hang on! It's M! Hey girl! Yeah, I'm studying right now! Tell me everything! What? Why are you freaking out? Um, of course! Yes, we are going to practice every day until the game comes! Yes, yes! Until the game! Yes, of [Music] course!
Hey, hey! How's it going? What do you want to talk about, bud? I wish we were back in LA! Yeah, you're being weird! I'm following your lead! Okay, well, you shouldn't because I'm... Look, I'm a complicated person! Tell me about it! You're not exactly a walk in the park either! You kind of like it, don't you? See, this is what I'm talking about, and it's making me crazy! This! I like spending time with you! It's annoying and cool, and I don't know! Maybe I... maybe what? Like, I like you! I think you know that I like you! I don't want to be yanked around, so either you're in or you're out! I'm [Music] in! Away! I [Music] know what I want! What? You want to say it in another way? With you, it'll be right! In another world! Another [Music] world! You sure about this? [Music] Absolutely! I like this direction! I see the [Music] world exploring territory every day! I've [Music] got... I stop thinking of you! I can't stop these feelings! Got me en! I can't stop it up for you! 'Cause you're got me [Music] fall! I know I'm shredded! So humble! [Music] What does this tattoo mean? Uh, it's from my twin sister! Her name was Abigail! Trey, I'm so sorry! I don't talk about her! We don't have to! No, no, it's fine! I probably should! We were at a neighbor's birthday party, and it was before we adopted Josh, so it was just me and her! We were attached at the hip, and then it's like we blinked, and she was gone! She wandered off when no one was looking! [Music] And that was the last time I saw her! My parents were searching for what felt like an eternity, and a couple people reported a suspicious car in the neighborhood, but no one knows! Trey, I'm so sorry! I cannot even imagine how hard that was for you! On all of us! It was a nightmare! And my dad, he blames himself, but it's not! It's no one's fault! But now he puts all his energy in me and the plan, and if I stray even a little bit, he freaks! And it's [Music] suffocating! And I feel like Josh reminds him of what family is supposed to be, and I remind him of losing his only daughter! [Music] Your dad's just an overprotective clownfish who loves you! Haven't you seen Finding Nemo? Yeah, thanks for listening! And if there's ever anything I can do... Well, there is one thing! Okay, my audition is still a few weeks away, so I'm working some things out! Okay, and if you don't like it, please lie! I'm going to love it! All right, let's stop stalling and dance! Come [Music] on! Ready? Yeah! We'll be down in a minute! No, dinner is ready now! Dad, you're being so... so what? Downstairs now! Wait, don't go! I want to see your little solo! No, it's fine! Another time! I'm sorry! My dad's such an [ __ ]! He's not! He's concerned for you! It comes from a good place! And besides, I told Nathan I'd have dinner with him! Okay, okay! Yeah! Aller in and submitted! Am I Harvard? Do you have a problem with [Music]? Dallas, the girl you got suspended and ran off to California with in my dime? Yeah, and I didn't just go for her! I wanted to clear my head and consider my options! Options? What options? You committed to Waco! Boys, we're going to need some plates! I got it! You always just assumed I wanted to go there, but there are other schools with great teams! Where is this coming from? Waco has always been the plan! Is this because of that girl? Her name is Dallas! She's a distraction! Okay, Dron, your father just wants what's best for you! And Leroy, Dallas is his girlfriend! You need to give her a chance! Now I am going to invite her to Dre's birthday party this weekend, and we are all going to be on our best behavior! [Music] Are you ready to face the wolves? They love me! Okay, okay! Smile! Smiling! Wow, you look amazing! Aw, thanks! But you're not my type! Hi! Yo, coach! I'm going to find literally any adult to talk to! Thanks! Oo, thank you! My mom will love this! It's a family recipe! Technically, Nathan made it, but I watched! I can't wait to try it! Yeah, sure! Okay, Dallas, I hear you're majoring in dance! You cheerleaders are so fantastic in the halftime shows! Thank you, Mom! Dallas is a classically trained dancer! That's impressive! We would love to attend your next performance! That's so nice of you, but I'm not sure when that'll be! When you're at Cal Arts, you'll have tons of recitals! That's Dallas's top choice, but it's very competitive! But you're very talented! Speaking of talent, cheers to the birthday boy! You're looking at Waco's next starting quarterback! We're very, very proud! Congrats, man! Thank you! You accepted, and you're starting! That's huge! Why didn't you tell me? Nothing's official! He's got a full ride! All he's got to do is sign on the dotted line! Well, uh, I'm still waiting to hear from a few places! Alabama and Notre Dame seem very interested, so I'm keeping an open mind! An open mind to other schools? Some in California? Georgia? California? Son, no! I'm not going to let you follow a girl across the country! That is not your decision! Can we just table this discussion? No, no! I am not going to let you dismantle your future and throw away this opportunity over a high school fling! You don't know anything about our relationship! Like, Dallas is the best thing to happen to me since... since what? The suspension? The parties? You know damn well! Since what? Since Abby! [Music] I want a choice over my own life! It's not just your life! Yes, it [ __ ] is! Okay! [Music] Enough, Mom! Um, I'm so sorry! Thank you so much for having me! Um, I have to go! Dallas! Dallas! Am I the reason you don't want to go to Waco? Wow, somebody thinks highly of themselves! I'm serious! Weren't you the one that told me plans can change? Yes, only if you want them to! But don't make any big life-altering decisions based on a relationship that's, you know... No, I don't know! That is not going anywhere! I didn't realize we had an expiration date! Yes, you did! Because that is exact, ex-actly why I didn't want to date you in the first place! Okay, but you did! We got together, and now you're running away! I am not running! So what should we do, huh? Since you can predict exactly how everything's supposed to play out like a dance routine, what comes next? I think we should break up! Fine! Works for me! [Music] Did you see all the colors of the [Music] fall? Did you hear all the voices in my car? We've been here before, but I know this is for [Music] real! We've been here before! Yeah, I know just how you feel! [Music] Go! [Music] We're closed! Missed the last 3 weeks of practice, and Le threatening to kick you off the team! Also wouldn't be shocked if she had you assassinated! Then let her! I'm really busy right now! I had to pick up some extra shifts at work! I know you're sad and heartbroken, and I want to help you get through this! I'm fine! And honestly, I don't even know what you're doing here! It's kind of traumatic! Nuh-uh! I am sick and tired of your main character energy! Breakups are awful! You know what? All sucks! Princeton rejection! Oh, GS! Oh no! When did it? Found out 2 weeks and like six phone calls ago! You know, I get you have baggage! It's not fair to push away people who love you! [Music] Mr. Douglas, what's going on? I thought you were at the studio! I was! I'm sorry! Are you okay? I should maybe go! No, you don't have to! I'll give you a call later! Yeah, um, tell us whatever it is! It'll be okay! Okay, okay! Yeah, thank you! Thank you! What's going on? When did that happen? You weren't the only one who had fun at the away game, evidently! Sit down! Let's talk! Why is it that the more you invest in something, the more it lets you down? Gabby hates me! Our friendship's over! I'm getting kicked off cheer, and I'm not even going to bother sending in my audition video because I'm never getting in! Like, everything is a mess! Can I ask you a question? Thas what? Do you love outside of dance? You! Besides your only living relative? I don't know! Gabby! Dallas! Yours t wanted as mom, but she had so much more than just dance! She had us! Friends! Family! Things that made her life so much more fulfilling! What happened to Mom and Dad was tragic, but it's the exception, not the rule! Sometimes the people you love stay! Did you become so well-adjusted after therapy? But you'll get there, and you will audition for Cal Arts in person! You've worked too hard! Oh, we can't afford it! Actually, we can! I've been saving up all year! You're all set! Oh, thank you! Yeah, of course! That's what brothers are for! Takeout night! Mom ordered your favorite! Tell her thanks, but I'm not hungry! Tre, when are you going to snap out of this, huh? It's been weeks! You're young and right! I promise you there will be other girls! This is not about Dallas! What's it about? About Waco! No, Dad! What? It's about us! We don't talk! We talk all the time! No, you talk at me, but you don't listen! You never even asked me if I liked football or what I want to do with my future or how I felt after... after Abby! Yeah, you expect me to live my life for the both of us, but that's just not possible! Look, the main reason I went to California was to visit with the head coaches of USC and UCLA! You did? Yeah, 'cause I love football, and I'm really good at it! I should be the one to decide where I play! There's no playbook for being a father! I just want you to be happy! I'm sorry that I haven't made that clear! Every moment of my life is spent trying to make sure you, your mom, and your brother are okay! Because I couldn't do that for Abby! That this is not your fault! That happened! I love you, son! I love you too, Dallas! [Music] Brian, thank you! Whenever you're ready! [Music] Lights are turned off, music is on! Minds are Al! I Chas your constellations! I see it in your eyes! The wind blows west where the sun don't rise! Yes, you've got a darker side! You know it's some mess, but you thr it too hard! Yes, the sweat is dripping down! Caresses your skin till it hits the ground! You digging deeper now! You biting your lips so you don't make a sound! Lights are turned! Music is on! Minds are un! This feeling is amazing! And on your way, they good is all that we say! Your purles Le the way I Chas your constellations! Now you going in the blank of the night! I try to remember what you look like! About in the sky! Closest thing to you other than my mind! Now you going in a think of a night! I try to remember what you tast that in my head! Smell! Love your body! Still myed! Lights are turned off! Music is on! Minds are unlocked! This feeling is amazing! I Chas your constellations! [Music] [Music] Thank [Music] you! Brian, was your mother Rachel? Brian? Yes, we were roommates! She was so talented! She'd be very [Music] proud! And off the record, we'd be lucky to have you on campus next year! [Music] Amaz! She did [Music] it! I'm sorry that I ghosted you and that I was so self-absorbed, but mostly I'm sorry that I pushed you away when you've always been a great best friend! Phenomenal best friend! The most phenomenal! And I love you more than I could love any boy because you're my [Music] family! You're forgiven! Now tell me how your audition went! It was amazing! Yes! I knew it! The faculty, they said they would quote be lucky to see me on campus! But I'm still waiting on my official acceptance! Congratulations! Absolutely killing it! What about you? I'm officially valedictorian, and I got a summer internship at the top law firm! Princeton will rue the day! Yeah, they will! As I hang my Harvard degree in my Supreme Court office! Oh yes, ma'am! How many things with Josh? Honestly, things are great! She accepted my promposal last night! No! I never thought the word prom spelled out in pepperoni would make me cry, but here we are! I am so happy for you too! I completely forgot about prom! Totally bearable of a third wheel! Unless... Hey, babe! No, no! I think it's really over with Drayton, but it's okay! We're graduating soon, and I'll never have to see him again! Is that what you want? Caps? No! Wait! Stop meddling! But he still talks about you all the time! So do that way you will! All righty, let's go! Caps, they're broken up! Just let it be! Everyone's leing for come off! You know they're perfect for each other! I can't help myself! Buiness! Hey, congrats on a great season! Thanks! It was a team effort, and we owe a lot to Coach! I got into Cal Arts! Never doubted you! Congrats, cheer! I know you didn't! And to be honest, you were the first person I wanted to tell! As we can't keep doing this! I'm really proud of my solo, which was definitely inspired by our time together! What do you mean? I mean about living in the moment! I guess I really like who I am when I'm with you! You trying to win me back? No! Yes! Maybe! I mostly wanted to apologize! I got scared, and I pushed you away the minute things got serious! And I don't know if it's because I'm a Virgo or if it's because I'm just seriously afraid of losing someone I love again! What did you just say? [Music] I said I love you, Jon! [Music] Ley, I love you! [Music] Too! So what's next? Let's just spend as much time together as we can, and I don't know what happens after, but I'm okay with [Music] it! Yes, sir! I playing for you is absolute dream! Thank you! You're sure about this? I want this to be your decision! I'm [Music] sure! Who knows? Maybe one day we'll find our way back to each other! [Music] Can't describe what you've painted on my heart! You given me no [Music] reason! Okay, you sure that you got everything? Yeah, I'm good! Double-checked your list, right? Which was your way of double-checking my list! It's the last of it, I guess! You're good to go! Okay, this is really happening! Uh, I promise to visit! I promise to call every day! One last thing! Dad's recipe! The council has deemed you worthy! I'm going to miss you, kid! Me too! You ready to go? Don't want you to miss your flight! See you! [Music] Coach, I'll pick up the rest! Yep! [Music] Head up! [Music] Nice catch! Cheer! Not my name! [Music] Quarterback! What are you doing here? You're looking at USC's new starting quarterback! Why didn't you tell me? What the fun in that? When you were TN, I visited with the head coach of USC and UCLA! Ultimately, USC was the pick! What did your dad say? It was tough, you know, but we worked through a lot, and in the end, he was totally supportive! Drey, I am so happy for you! I can't believe you held on to this for so long! Ah, trust me! It took everything in me not to ruin the surprise! Was it worth [Music] it? Absolutely! Is this real? This is very [Music] real! Foreign speech! Foreign [Music] speech! Speech! [Music] Fore speech! Speee! Fore for spee! Spee! Speech! Forign! Spee! Fore! Fore! Foreign! For spech! Speee! Forign! Fore! Action! [Music] And [Music] action! Foreign! Speee! Forign!
