* That side of me *

* Your competition
in the spotlight *

* Don't care if we just move *

* 'Cause (unclear) tonight *

* It's not that complicated *

* Body intoxicatin' *

* Oh, that disco
ball's spinnin' *

* All night *

* Leave your worries
on the floor *

* T-tonight *

* Now, you got me wantin' more *

* It's so right *

* DJ, can you count to four? *

* I can't wait to see tomorrow *

* Ready, set,
it's time to go *

* Go *

(knocking)

Oh.

* Check out my shoes *

- Oh, Henry, hi.
- Didn't hear your phone?

Oh, sorry.

This song came on and I used
to have a routine to it

- with my old dance company--
- Okay, I believe you.

Look, we got the client
comin' in today.

We gotta go.
See you at the truck.

Okay.

*

Whew! Let's go.

Hey, Rick!

Wow!
It looks great in here.

- (laughing)
- Yeah, sorry we're late.

My sister, here, decided to go
full on Footloose this morning.

Ah. Good morning, Luna, Henry.

Oh, your mom sent me with some
muffins in case you're hungry.

Oh.
Yes, please.

So, what time
are the aerialists coming?

Uh, they should be here
this afternoon,

so we have a few hours to clean
up and get everything ready.

Gabby: Luna!

- Hi.
- Luna: Hi, Gabby.

Hate to barge in, but,
good news, bad news,

what do you want first?

- Uh, maybe...
- Good.

..good news, then
it will dampen the bad.

You and your family
got the contract

for The Festival of Arts.

What? Yeah!

That's great.
Thanks, Gabby.

That's amazing.
Okay, wait.

What's the bad news?

You can thank my boss in person,
because Katrina's coming by

with a journalist
in a few minutes.

Right now?

But, the rehearsals were
supposed to be this afternoon,

- and then--
- Yes, and they will be,

but, right now,
a surprise tour.

- All right, here we go.
- Um, okay.

Grab those paint cans.

We're just gonna put
everything in the truck.

- Yep, yep.
- All right.

Luna: So, a journalist?

Yes, she's doing a story
on The Festival of Arts

and Katrina wanted to show off
our new rehearsal spaces.

Which, look great by the way,
so thank you.

Oh, but the silks,
can we just...

- Yep, I can untie them.
- Okay.

- All right.
- Thanks.

(sighing) We are leaning hard
on the aerial part

to build buzz with
Bennett coming back to town.

I still don't get it.
Folks hang from these things?

- For fun?
- (laughing) They do.

My brother tours the world
doing just that.

Is he back yet?

No, his flight got delayed,

so he's coming
straight to the first rehearsal.

Acrobatics on fabrics?
That's bandanas!

- (laughing) That's funny?
- Well, mm...

Rick: Eh?
Thanks again, Ms. Jensen.

You won't be disappointed.

Oh, you're welcome, but,
it's not me you have to impress.

- (phone chiming)
- Oh!

They're here.
Um, I'm gonna go meet them.

Everything looks great.
Be right back.

- Thanks, Gabby.
- Good luck, ladies!

Thanks.

Gabby: For our new,
opening night show,

we're pairing local performers
with professional artists.

Oh, this rehearsal space
looks great.

But, personally,
what I'm most excited for is,

well, my brother,
Bennett Jensen.

The Olympic gymnast.

Yes, and he's had quite
the second chapter

with Cirque du Rêve.

And he's paired with who?
A local farmer?

No, his aerial partner,
Elise, lives here, so...

I hear attendance has been down
the past few years?

Oh, that's because of
the pretzel festival.

A couple towns over,
they may have stolen

a little bit of our thunder.

With pretzels?

Uh, but this year,
we will be back on the map.

Oh, and are you
one of the performers?

Oh, no, no.

My... my family has
the construction business

that worked on
the renovations in here.

She used to be a dancer though.

Candice: Really?

Then why aren't you
in the show, dear?

Oh, no, my performing days
are behind me,

but if you need a window framed,
I'm your girl.

- (Gabby laughing nervously)
- Cute.

Uh, Gabby, why don't we show
Candice the, uh, theatre next?

Great idea.
(laughing nervously)

(whispering)
Pretzel festival?!

Hey, Mark. Bennett here.

Your mom tells me
you're a skilled athlete.

Keep at it.

If I can go from Hazelton
to the Olympics, so can you.

- Take care.
- Thank you so much.

He is going to freak
when he sees this.

Yeah, my pleasure.

Is it true that you do a drop
from 20 feet in your show?

- No spoilers.
- Oh, sorry.

(both laughing)

But, I promise
it's going to be spectacular.

- I hope to see you at the show.
- Mm-hm.

- Take care.
- Thank you.

*

Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa.

(laughing nervously)

(sighing deeply)

*

Hey. What are you doing?

Oh! Oop!

Yeah, as you can see
it's not a toy.

It could be dangerous.

I'm okay, by the way,
if you were wondering.

Have you seen my sister Gabby?

Luna: I wasn't playing around
by the way.

I was doing a safety inspection.

So, yep...
(clearing throat)

Check, check.
Final inspection complete.

Safe to use.

And Gabby had a meeting, so she
asked me to show you around.

I'm... I'm Luna, by the way.

Gabby and I go to aerial yoga
sometimes, so...

Cool.

So, the show sounds
incredible. I--

The festival's never had
anything like it.

I mean, aerials?
Everyone's talking about it.

"Aerial."

- Oh.
- "Aerial," there's no...

- There's no "S".
- Oh, okay.

Well, I can show you the rest
of the building if you want.

No, you know what?
There's no need.

I gotta start rehearsing.

Okay, well, it's a good thing
I did this safety check, right?

- So...
- Yeah.

Okay.

- Hey, Luna.
- Yeah?

Don't forget your shoes.

- (laughing nervously) Phew!
- Woo.

*

- Welcome home!
- Hey!

- Need some help?
- No, I'm good.

How's it goin', sis?

It's so great to see you
not on a tiny FaceTime screen.

Well, thank you for havin' me.

Are you kidding?
The whole town's buzzing.

- Oh, yeah?
- How was rehearsal?

- Where's Elise?
- Um...

So, it's Tuesday.

Taco Tuesday?

A weird non-answer
to my question, but--

With the bomb salsa?

So, Elise isn't coming.

What? Why?

She told me this morning. She
booked a Rihanna music video.

What about your duet?

Well, um...
It's a solo now.

No.
(laughing nervously)

No, it can't be a solo.

Yeah, sure.
It'll be fine.

Elise lives here.

The whole point of the show
is to pair a professional artist

with a local person,
or people.

I spent a year
pitching this idea.

Yeah, well, you know,
technically I'm from here.

Sure, but you moved away at 15
for gymnastics training.

Elise owns a house here.

So, we tell them that Rihanna
stole our local aerialist.

(laughing mockingly)
We'll find you a new partner.

No, we won't.

Do you know how hard
and dangerous silks are?

And I have
a reputation to uphold, and,

I can't be wasting my time
with a beginner.

Maybe you noticed
these are all over town,

in every window.

The festival is a huge deal,
and I have a reputation too.

Attendance has been down and
I promised them "wow factor."

There's...
there's gotta be someone.

- A dance teacher--
- Sure, yeah.

Let's just...
let's just go find someone

who's strong, flexible,
comfortable in the air,

that can learn a silks routine
in less than six weeks.

So, we're getting you
a new partner.

No, this is not
just a situation

where you...
you snap your fingers

and it all goes away.

- (laughing) Watch me.
- (snapping fingers)

All right, anyone here
have some aerial experience?

Nobody.

Great.

Let's just see which of you
can get up the silks the highest

and we'll begin there.

You got this.
(laughing nervously)

*

Bennett: I wanna see
someone climb up and stay up.

*

(sighing deeply)

- (sighing)
- It's fine.

(laughing sheepishly)

Next.

Next. Next.

Next.

*

Well, it only took
five years of bidding,

but we finally got
The Festival of Arts gig.

And since it's just the four
of us, the big question is,

"On time, under budget,
can we deliver?"

- We got this.
- (phone buzzing)

- Oh.
- You, uh, wanna turn that off?

Luna: Sorry.

Gabby wants me to audition
for this aerial thing.

Henry: (laughing)
"Aerial thing"?

You tell Gabby you can barely
make it to the top of a ladder?

She's very persistent.

Well, just tell her
we need you here for the build

not swinging from the rafters.

I think you'd be great at it.

Thanks.

I think it's a little
out of my league.

Well, Henry,
so this was your dream gig?

Any ideas
on how to get it done?

I'm thinkin' we
re-use the (unclear)

left over from the holiday fair.

That way we just paint 'em

and don't have
to start from scratch.

Yeah, and I can paint them
no problem.

What are the dimensions?

Henry: We'll have to cut 'em,
but otherwise, that should work.

Richard: We'll, we've got
some red paint left over,

but do we have enough
for 20 panels?

Luna?

Luna?

Yeah, I'll check!

Um, yeah,
you guys keep chatting.

I'll... I'll be right back.

(parents chattering)

*

Hey, we're getting a little low
on the festival red,

so I'm gonna go to
the hardware store.

Right now?

Yeah, could use some fresh air.

Fresh air? Okay.

Okay.

*

Hi.

Auditions are over.

- Luna, hi!
- Hi.

Yes, you made it.
Uh, Bennett, this is Luna.

- She's a dancer.
- Uh, we've... we've met.

Oh, great.

She also does not know
anything about silks.

No, I know, I know,
but I studied dance

at The North Carolina
School of The Arts

and I did two years in--

Mm, that's very interesting.
We're still done here.

Are... are we?
We haven't found anyone yet.

And, at aerial yoga,
I was a hot mess.

- She was good.
- This is hopeless.

Look.
Just give me a minute.

- Let me talk to him.
- Thanks.

What did the other girls do?

Get up to the top.

(sighing deeply)
Okay.

So, what I'm thinking
is a solo number, okay?

*

We throw in a couple of dancers
on the floor.

Give them some
easy ballet kicks to do.

Gabby: Or, we expand to include
the next few towns.

I know a gymnastics teacher,
there in Fairfield,

that would be great.

Bennett: Yeah, so I don't think
I have the patience

to teach someone who has
literally no experience.

This high enough?

Yes!
That's great!

How...
How did she get up there?

When was the last time
you danced?

Other than in my living room?
Uh, probably a few years.

And you say
you're in construction?

Yeah, keeps me strong
apparently.

This could be fun.

It's giving
major Flashdance vibes.

Jennifer Beals was a welder,
and he was a contractor,

and dance magic's gonna happen.

This has nothing
to do with magic.

- It's a lot of hard work.
- No, I-I-I know.

I saw an aerial act on a cruise
ship once and I just...

I sat back in awe and I thought
"I wish I could do that,

just be so brave,
and strong, and graceful."

Yeah, wishes won't cut it here.

Have you ever had an injury
that kept you from performing?

Sure.
Everybody has.

How long were you out for?

Six months.
It was the worst.

Okay, now, imagine that,
but for years.

I walked away from the one thing
that I love the most.

Well, this is gonna be
way harder than dancing.

Not as hard as not dancing.

Please.
Just... just give me a chance.

Okay.
Fine.

Tomorrow, here,
8:00 AM sharp.

- Okay.
- Don't forget your shoes.

- No, don't.
- (both squealing happily)

(grunting) Oh, shoes.
(clearing throat)

*

Hey, uh, so I don't need you
to pick me up today

because Gabby asked me
to come to a meeting with her

with the festival directors.

Okay, well, should I come by?

No, no, no.
(laughing)

No, I don't wanna waste
both of our mornings.

I feel like this is
a "this could've been an E-mail"

kind of meeting.

All right, well, thanks.

Hey, see if you can
get an answer

to our timeline question.

Okay, yep.
See you later.

K, bye.

- Morning.
- Morning.

See? Right on time.

If you're not
five minutes early, you're late,

and I don't do late.

Oh, wow.
Such a warm welcome.

Okay, so, um, you've obviously
decided that I can't do this

for some reason, so I'm just
gonna get this out of the way.

Uh... I'm afraid of heights.

That's irrelevant to me.

So much empathy.

It's not gonna matter today.

- Your lack of empathy?
- Your fear of heights.

We're only training at about
a foot off the ground.

If you can't master it
on the ground

then we're not going in the air.

Oh, okay.
Well, that's a relief.

Okay, so, um, obviously
you're not very psyched

to be working with me,
so, uh, why are you doing this?

- Well, for my sister mostly.
- Oh.

It's a really good look
when you say something nice

with a scowl on your face.

A "scowl"?
Who's scowling?

Oh, okay, so it's just face.

Oh, so someone woke up
this morning and chose sassy.

You give me attitude, I will
give it to you right back.

Okay, well, here it goes.

I don't do well with beginners.
That's you.

Originally, Elise and I
were gonna work on something

completely different.

- Why don't we just do that?
- Oh, sure, yeah.

How's your single crochet,
to catcher's, to Cupid,

to fake wheeldown,
to outside seatbelt?

Okay, okay, point taken.

So, now I know how you feel.

It's kinda customary
for you to ask

the other person
how they're feeling.

Oh, yeah, no.

We're not gonna talk about
your feelings.

Okay, um, I know
I'm not an aerialist,

but as a dancer,

the guys that would refuse
to make a human connection

were always the guys
that dropped me.

Right, well, your feelings
are not gonna be able

to lift your entire body weight
over your head.

What if they're strong feelings?

(laughing) I'm sorry.
Okay, I'm sorry.

You're, like, an Olympian
and I'm nervous.

(sighing)
Okay, fine.

But, let's just please stop
talking about feelings, okay?

And we'll focus on precision,
and go from trick to trick.

- Sound good?
- Yes.

- And wear these.
- What?

Your shorts,
the ones you're wearing,

they're not gonna cut it.

The silks are gonna burn
the back of your legs.

- Burn?
- Yeah, friction.

It's a thing.
Look it up.

Do you always have
ladies' leggings in your bag?

They're my sister's and I had
a feeling you might want them.

(gasping)
You had a feeling!

A feeling!
Put the pants on.

Okay.

*

There we go.

Now, you're gonna wanna
pull on these,

wear it like a backpack,
and I'm gonna spot you.

Pull yourself up. Ready?

Yep. Uh...

(laughing) Up. There you go.

Invert and extend your legs
on each side.

- There we go.
- Okay.

- There you go.
- Okay.

You're upside down.

- Woo!
- (both laughing)

- Okay, ready to go back up?
- Yep.

Okay, grab on, engage your core,
and pull yourself up.

- Okay.
- There you go.

Whoa.
(laughing)

Whoa.

Let's, um...
Let's work on your climb.

- Okay.
- Uh, yeah, let's...

*

* Ah! *

* Oh-whoa-oh, oh-oh-whoa-oh *

* Woo, oh-whoa-oh *

* Oh-oh-whoa-oh *

* Woo, oh-whoa-oh *

* Oh-oh-whoa-oh, woo *

* Oh-whoa-oh *

* Oh-oh-whoa-oh, woo *

* I'm excited 'cause we've got
a show tonight *

* Yeah, I love it
when I see my name in lights *

* But I couldn't do it
without you *

* Hey-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh *

* So, here we go *

* You know we're gonna
rock this show *

* Are you ready
for the rock and roll? *

* So, here we go *

* Oh-whoa-oh, oh-oh-whoa-oh *

* Okay, oh-whoa-oh *

* Oh-oh-whoa-oh *

Luna: Woo!

Okay, so, uh, for tomorrow,
my family kinda needs me,

so I was wondering if we could
try to finish around 1:00.

We still have
a lot of work to do.

Mm-hm, yeah, so do we.

We're building everything for
the festival, the stages, and--

Well, this needs to be
a priority

if we wanna pull it off.

Okay, yeah.
Forget I said anything.

See you tomorrow.
Keep it up.

What about "Great work, Luna.
Good first day!"?

Advil, ice packs, trust me.

Bennett:
Yeah, it's not gonna work, Gabs.

The salted caramel latte
and almond croissant?

Oh, it works.

The routine?
With Luna.

- You had one rehearsal.
- And that was enough.

There was talking,
and, and, and, feelings--

Wow. Oh, sounds terrible.

Oh, I should've trusted
my intuition.

It's too hard
to teach someone from zero.

Oh, my gosh!
There's Audrey Jones-Taylor.

She rents a house here sometimes

when she needs a break
from the city.

Is she doing the show?

Technically
her people said "no."

That doesn't mean
she doesn't wanna do it.

Let's go talk to her.
Have my back.

Tell her how good the show is.

I just came to tell you
that it isn't good.

Please!
I need her in the show.

And you.

And Luna.

Okay. But one condition.

If it's still a mess
after two weeks,

I'm bringin' in someone
from New York City.

Fine.

Come on.

Audrey Jones-Taylor? Wow.

Hi. I'm Gabby.
We chatted online.

I'm the arts festival
programmer.

Oh, yes.

It's nice to meet you
in person, Gabby.

Does you being in town mean
you've agreed to do the show?

Look. I love this town.

And I love the idea
of your show, on paper,

but the audition tapes...

I can't just go on stage
with anyone.

I can get you more tapes!

Look, my boss is a mega fan

and it will be a very dark day
in the office

if I tell her you backed out.

I hate to disappoint a fan, but
I would disappoint her even more

if the duet was a dud.

And, what about your partner?

How's that going so far?

Oh, um...
Well, it's her first day.

- So, not great.
- No, great!

Right, Ben?

Yes, she has a lot of potential.

Let's go to karaoke tonight.

Maybe we'll hear
someone awesome.

Forget karaoke.

I'm gonna give you
one more chance.

I might do it with someone.

Great! Who is it?

That's the thing.
I don't know who it is.

I know the voice.
I just don't know the name.

Mm. Like a mystery singer?

Hm. Walk with me.

*

Oh, thanks. Ooh.

You all right?
Uh, yeah, just a little sore.

I think I overdid it
at the gym.

- Okay.
- Luna!

- Hey!
- Oh, hi!

- How was rehearsal today?
- Oh, shh!

I haven't told my family
about the show yet.

Oh. Why not?

Isn't that your silks partner?

Oh, my gosh!
(laughing)

Luna, this is
Audrey Jones-Taylor.

Hi. Wow.

Sorry. Fan-girling.

Come with us.
We're on a quest.

We're gonna find
a mystery singer.

Oh, um, I have a lot on my plate
and I...

Come. You two need some bonding.

- What is this?
- Just go with it.

Okay, uh, Henry,
I'll be back in 5.

I'll meet you at the warehouse.

Make it 10!
(giggling)

Okay. Don't worry.

I got it.

So, I usually take this shortcut
to the coffee shop

and sometimes
I just hear it

coming from
one of these windows.

Well, could you record it
on your phone?

Maybe next time you'll--

* All by myself-- *

That's it! I hear it.

It's lovely.
Who is she?

Like I always say,
"Our town is full of talent."

I think it's coming
from that window.

You know, that drain pipe
looks pretty sturdy

and those ledges
go all the way across.

I thought an aerialist.

Can't you get up there?
Take a peek?

Or we can go through the front.

- Bennett: Yeah.
- Yeah.

* All by myself *

* In the morning *

I think this is the place.

* All by myself *

Should we?

* In the night *

* Rest my weary head *

* On somebody's shoulder *

Excuse me. Sorry to int--

Gabby.
(laughing) Hi.

- Katrina!
- Oh, my goodness!

- Audrey Jones-Taylor.
- It's so nice to meet you.

Hi. We heard your singing.

Singing?
I wasn't singing.

- On, no, it was lovely.
- What?

- No.
- Oh, that was definitely you.

No, just painting.

Are you here to take the class?

Oh, no,
we wanted to talk to you

about performing in
the festival opener with Audrey.

(laughing)
That's hilarious.

It's not a joke.

(children chattering)

You know what?
My class is starting.

So, I'm gonna...

Um, so I have
to get ready for...

I loved you in Carousel
by the way.

Thank you.

*

Did you guys know
she could sing like that?

No idea.

Well, Gabby, I don't think
this is gonna work out.

We didn't even ask her.

But she won't even admit
that she's singing.

Since when do you take "no"
for an answer?

Yeah, Gabby can make it happen.

I can?

Yes. I can.

I'm on it.

Fabulous!
See you on opening night.

- Bye.
- Okay, so, no biggie.

Just convince my boss
to sing in a show

she has no interest
in singing in.

Okay, well,
this has been fun,

but I'm gonna go
help my brother with some work.

Oh, hey! Um...

Can the reporter come
to your rehearsal on Wednesday?

- Yeah.
- No.

Let me rephrase that.
Great news!

The reporter is coming
to your rehearsal on Wednesday.

- Gabby.
- Just have a little chat.

Maybe show her a move or two.

Moves? Oh.

Uh, I don't know
if we're ready for moves.

- Absolutely not, no.
- If we have moves,

or if our performance
is "show a reporter ready."

- Or...
- Publicity.

- Always good.
- Yeah. (laughing nervously)

"Local girl
pretends to be an aerialist."

(laughing)
See you then!

See ya.

*

*

So, how long did you and Elise
work together for?

Couple of years.

Does, uh, she have red hair?

- That's a weird question.
- Yeah.

I watched some of
your performances on YouTube.

Ah, yeah, no.
That was... that was Valentina.

Long before I was with
Cirque du Rêve.

What happened with her?

Um, we both got an audition
for a big gig.

I got it. She didn't.

Ouch.

Were you guys
together together?

Um, I'd rather
not answer that.

Okay, so you were.

I just... I try to keep
my professional life

and personal life separate.

Okay.

Well, you guys
did this one move.

It was like a straddle,
and then she fell below you,

and then did
like a trapeze move.

Ah, yeah. The Cliff Drop.

Is that gonna be in our routine?

(laughing)
This is week one.

Forget the Cliff Drop for now.

How about we focus on something
that's actually doable?

Okay. Ready?

Yes.

Good. Now, invert.

- Okay.
- Good.

Yes, switch. That's good.

Switch again. Good.

- Okay, (unclear) your foot.
- Uh, what's that?

I need you to sickle your foot
around the silk.

There we go.
Good.

- Yep.
- Ready?

- Yep.
- Here we go.

Ah!
(thudding)

(Bennett sighing)

Good morning!

Good morning.

You guys wanna come meet
Candice, the reporter?

Wait.
Wasn't she the contractor?

- Mm-hm.
- (Bennett sighing)

Okay, so how 'bout
we don't show them wheeldown?

- Yep, yep, yeah.
- Yeah, okay.

Candice: So, Bennett,
this is hard to believe,

but your sister says you
used to be afraid of heights?

- (laughing)
- Really?

Yes, uh, I guess
every aerialist is,

at least in the beginning.

I remember my first audition
I nearly passed out.

It was a bungees audition.

Candice: That's fascinating.

And you were out of your show,
for was it six months last year?

I do my research.

Yes, uh, but I think
I've been doing the work

to a speedy recovery
since then, so...

I've read that
this kind of shoulder injury

can be a career ender.

Yes, it can.

Is surgery on the table?

- (laughing) I--
- He's gonna be fine.

It's me who's gonna need
the ice bath

every day this week.

(both laughing)

And, Luna, quite a story here
with you jumping in last minute.

Isn't aerial
dangerous and difficult?

Yes, to both.
(laughing)

The press release mentioned
your background in dance,

but how did you end up in...

It's construction, right?

Yeah, my... my family has
a contracting business

and they needed me, so...

I've seen some of Bennett's
routines with other partners.

Will you be able
to get to that level?

Uh, I don't know,

but I'm...
I'm gonna try my best

and I'm just
very grateful to be here.

And, Gabby,
how are you gonna make sure

these are professional-level
performances?

Couldn't this all steer into
amateur hour very easily?

Well, I trust that
these amazing artists,

and in this case, athletes,

will help the amateurs
rise to the occasion.

Well, I would love to see
more of what you got.

Can I get a sneak peek?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, yes.

*

I know the theme
is starry night,

but try not to put
the audience to sleep.

She's just warming up.

Maybe you were right.
Maybe it was too early for this.

It was a pretty good
interview though!

Really? Was it?

Okay.
(sighing deeply)

I guess I gotta go to work.

Sorry I let you guys down.

Luna, wait.

Would it kill you
to tell her she did a good job?

Candice is right.
We're never gonna get there.

- Yeah, yeah.

- Okay, meatball.
- Oh, thanks.

Italian, no onion,
extra provolone,

and cheesesteak for Richard,

and I'm performing
in the festival.

Wait. What?

Hm? Huh?

Um, I wasn't at a doctor's
appointment this morning.

I was at a rehearsal,
and then I had an interview

for the aerial routine.

You went to the audition.

I did. And I got the gig.

I knew you would.

Yes, but it's really hard,
and I'm not very good at it.

We don't keep secrets, Luna.
You know that.

I know, but I just kinda wanted
to see what would happen,

and if it didn't work out,

then I didn't have
to worry you guys for nothing,

and I wouldn't have
to tell you guys that I quit.

- Did you quit?
- Oh, no.

But, oof, after today,
I'm thinking about it.

'Cause the moment
you wanna quit

is the moment you've gotta just
keep pushing even harder.

You've got this, honey.

You weren't there today.
I bombed.

And, I thought maybe you guys
would think it was a bad idea

to join the show,
especially now.

The bad idea
was keeping it from us.

I know.

But I have to admit
I'm a little worried.

When we put in our bid,

being short-handed
wasn't part of the plan.

- Which is why I should quit.
- Luna.

- I should.
- We'll make it work.

We all know how much you gave up
when you moved back here.

And as much as you try
to pretend that you don't,

we know how much
you miss dancing.

Aerial is like
a billion times harder.

Okay, so?
You've always loved a challenge.

Yeah, and I wanna be
really good at this.

- Yeah.
- Luna: So I can come in early.

I can work late.

I can make up
everything that I missed,

but, if you guys
really need me here,

then I can just...

I'll tell Bennett
that it's not gonna work out.

Well, we do need you here,

but it also sounds like
you need to be there too.

I suppose we can try
to make it work for you.

Thank you.
You guys are the best.

Luna, honey,
I'm so proud of you.

I mean, an interview?
That's... that's so exciting!

Yeah, well, we'll see
what the article says.

“Hazelton is charming and
their storied Festival of Arts

"is a classic for summer nights
spent enjoying music and dance

"under the stars.

"We're rooting for
their new folksy addition

"of a night where
professional artists

"perform with local amateurs,

"but it can't help but feel
a little talent show-y."

- (sighing)
- (phone chiming)

(sighing deeply)

“The town seems
most electrified

"by the return of their
hometown success story,

"Bennett Jensen,
a world class aerialist

"and one-time Olympic gymnast,

"who is somehow paired with
a local construction worker

and failed ex-dancer."

"There's a certain stiffness and
lack of connection between them,

"like two reluctant strangers
forced together

to do a trust exercise
at a conference.”

So, did you convince Katrina
to sing in your show yet?

I haven't even
brought it up yet.

I'm still dealing with
the fall-out from the article.

Yeah, speaking of "fall-out..."

I gotta be realistic
about Luna's skills.

- You really can't make it work?
- You saw her.

She's a mess
and she caved under pressure.

She had your back though,
in the interview.

Yeah, I appreciate that, but--

She's trying,
and not for nothing.

That reporter doesn't know
what she's talking about.

My show is not
a folksy amateur hour,

and, you and Luna
look really good together.

- Gabby.
- What?

Is it so weird that I want you
to meet someone?

You're single too.

Sure, but at least
I go on dates.

I put myself out there.

Well, I'm not doing that again.

Doing what?
Caring about someone?

You know what I mean.

I'm sorry I hinted at
anything else.

I just mean on the silks.

At least give her
the full two weeks.

We're nowhere near where Elise
and I would be at this point.

Gabby: Luna!

I just thought a vanilla latte
might cheer me up,

but apparently
I was wrong about that.

Luna, hold on. Wait.

(sighing)

- Hi.
- Uh, Gabby, hi.

Sorry, I... I can't chat now.

I'm about to have a meeting
with the orchestra director.

- Sorry.
- Oh, there is no meeting.

I put that on your calendar.

Wait. What?

Well, I was hoping
we could talk.

About Audrey?

Well, I hope she found someone
great to do the show with her.

We need this more than ever
after that article.

- She wants to do it with you.
- No, she doesn't.

No, she does.

You were so good
Audrey said she'd only consider

doing the show
if she could do it with you.

Wait. What?

- No.
- Well, it's... it's true.

She said that.
To me.

But I'm not a performer.
I've never been.

Okay, a million years ago
I was in the high school choir,

but I wasn't good enough to even
consider being a singer.

Who told you that?

Well, I guess... I did.

Well, Audrey disagrees.

Okay. I support artists.

I produce shows.

I raise the money
and I stand on the sidelines.

Well, now's your chance.

To stand in the spotlight
for once.

Oh, no.
Then everyone'll think

I somehow put this whole thing
together to show off,

and, if it turns out
to be too "talent show-y,"

I'd be a laughing stock.

No, let's show that art critic
that art is for everyone,

not just jazz quartets
from Juilliard.

Hazelton is full of talent.
You have talent.

Audrey really said she'd
only do the show with me?

*

* I can feel it everywhere *

* There's a magic in the air *

* Your charms *

* And I'm fallin' so hard *

* As I follow my heart *

* Into your arms *

* Ooh-ooh-ooh *

* Summer blue *

* I've been *

* Waitin' for you *

* Like a big, old ocean *

* I can dive into *

* Oh, summer blue *

* I've been waitin' for you *

- Hi.
- Hi.

* Like a big, old ocean, I-- *

I, uh... I was...

I was, uh,
dancing out my feelings.

It... it helps.

It's beautiful.
I'm... I'm speechless.

- Thank you.
- Whatever that was could you...

Could you bring that
to the silks?

That confidence,
that... that grace.

I mean, you filled every moment.

Aren't you here to fire me?

What? No, no.

Not at all.

Okay. Okay, uh, look.

I know I'm not as...
as great as Elise.

- Course not.
- Wow.

Way to make
a girl feel great, uh...

No, what I meant was that
she's been training for years,

but I've never seen her
or anyone do that.

Yeah, well,
when I dance I feel like...

I feel like I'm telling a story.

And then,
when I'm on the silks,

I feel like
it's just technique, technique,

- technique--
- So, forget the technique.

I mean, keep enough
to keep you safe,

but, tell your story.

Make it yours.

Yeah, I can... I can try--

Were you... were you really
just gonna give me two weeks?

Yeah. Yeah, I was.

But, that... that's
not just about you.

I've never taught anyone
from the first day,

and that... that...

Honestly, I didn't think
I could pull it off.

But, that's the thing, I--

We should be a team.

You know,
I'm... I'm all in,

but I feel like you have
one foot out the door

and like you can't wait
for this to be over.

No, you're right.

Yeah, that's not fair to you.

And I should know better.

Trust is the only thing
that'll keep us safe up there,

so...

And for what it's worth, I, uh,
I want us to be a team too.

Yeah, that's worth something...

Yes.

Sorry I made you feel that way.

So, what do you say?

You accept my apology?

So, what do you say?
You accept my apology?

Yeah, I do, but, uh,

you know what would make me
feel a lot better?

No.

Learning how to do
the forward drop.

(laughing)
Okay, here we go.

- Okay!
- Good.

Cross behind your back.
That's right.

Loop over one leg.

Over your right.
Good.

Up.

Good. Ready?

- Yeah.
- Engage your core.

(exhaling deeply)

- (squealing happily)
- Whoa!

- (both laughing)
- Wow!

Yes! How did it feel?

Great, uh, okay,
this is gonna sound crazy,

but it felt like...
it felt like a star

that was full of energy

and then I just had to wrap
around myself and release.

It's the story.

I think that's
what was missing from before.

See, now, I wanna try.

*

What?! What was that?

Double forward drop.

You'll get there.

- (phone ringing)
- Oh, sorry.

That should be on
"do not disturb."

(phone ringing)

Oh, it's my brother.
Hang on.

(phone ringing)

Henry? Hi.

Okay. Did you try
the drawings I left?

They're the wrong size.
Okay, yeah, no, no.

I'll be there.
Okay, bye.

They need me.

Oh, yeah, I was gonna teach you
the slack drop, but, never mind.

You go ahead.
I understand.

Thank you.

Do you, uh...
Do you need any help?

Pretty good with a hammer.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Yeah.

I didn't know Bennett
was gonna be helping us.

Me neither.

You said he was
"as cold as ice."

Maybe he's warming up.

This is an honor,
and, thank you.

(exhaling deeply)
I was actually surprised

you wanted to have
our first rehearsal here.

This isn't a rehearsal.

This is just painting.
Is that cool?

I love that idea.

So, what's next for you
after the show?

I'll probably go back on tour.

That must be great,
just touring all over the world

and blowing people's minds
every day.

Yeah, yeah.
I've been pretty lucky.

Do ever get sick
of being on the road?

Yeah, I've always been
a bit of a nomad.

So, being on tour makes sense.

But, I don't like saying this.

I've been getting
a little bit burnt out

of the routine on the show,

and I've asked production
to change it,

and they keep saying "no," and--

Is that why you and Elise
were trying to come up

with something new?

Exactly.

If we could show them
something new here,

maybe they'd let us
do it on the road.

But...

- (wincing)
- Ooh.

Ow.

How are you doing that?

Oh, this is a hack
Rick taught me.

Okay, so you take the nail,
put it through the cardboard,

hammer the cardboard,
and then you pull it out.

Then, voila.
No smashed fingers.

You wanna try?

Sure.

- Oh, look at that!
- (laughing)

* The moon belongs *

* To everyone *

* The best things in life *

* Are free *

* The stars belong *

* To everyone *

* They gleam there *

* For you and me *

* The flowers in spring *

* The robins that sing *

* The sun beams that shine *

* They're yours,
they're mine *

* And love can come *

* To everyone *

* The best things in life *

* Are free *

So, what about you?
What's next for you?

Uh, more of the same, I think.

Got a big build coming up, so...

If you don't mind me asking,
why'd you quit dancing?

Well, I had a job with
a dance company for a while,

but, um, the artistic directors
were a couple,

and then when they split,

the whole thing just,
uh, folded.

And then my step-dad
had his knee surgery,

so I came home, and then,
had a few really bad auditions

that were enough
to crush my confidence,

so, I'm still here.

Mm. The safe gig.

- I get it.
- Yep.

But, um, if it's not
too much of a stretch,

if you wanna try out any of
your new choreography with me,

I'm... I'm down.

And, uh, maybe we can call
someone from Cirque du Rêve

to come see the show.

(sighing)
Uh...

Yeah, no, that's...
That's a bad idea.

No, no, no, it's not.
It's not a bad idea.

It's just...

I've always felt
a little uncomfortable

with the artistry,
but, the technique I got.

But I'm no choreographer.

Yeah, well,
I wasn't an aerialist

'til a few weeks ago.

Maybe this is the safest place
to try it out.

Maybe.

Go.

*

- (sighing happily)
- Sold out show, huh?

You're gonna be great.
Your voice is amazing.

Gabby: Hello, everyone.

Welcome.

And thank you for coming to
tonight's talent welcome event.

So, this is your chance
to have a look at the facility

and do any last minute
checks you need.

And I really hope
that you stick around after

for the welcome party.

For those of you
who don't know,

The Hazelton Festival of Arts

first started
in this very theater

as a way to showcase
local musicians and performers.

Over the years it grew into
a world class gathering,

but I am so excited
to bring it full circle

by showcasing all of you,

the people
that make this town so unique.

So thank you all for bringing
life to our theatre.

Have a look around
and we'll see you at the party.

Hey, is Audrey Jones-Taylor
coming?

Oh, no, this is just for
the local performers.

And, by the way,
I'm sorry about the other day.

Bennett, he didn't mean that.

Oh, he did,
but it's okay.

We talked.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I actually think we turned
some kind of a corner.

Oh, great.
I'm rooting for you two.

Yeah, I... I know the routine
means a lot to you both.

Well, I don't just mean
the routine.

Oh! Hey, Bennett!

Let me know if you need
anything for rigging.

Will do.
Ready?

(laughing excitedly)
Bye.

This is it, right?

We're not going
any higher than this?

Uh, yeah.

It's important for us to inspect
our own rigging points.

It's like
packing your own parachute.

Hey. You okay?

(sighing) I need to do
some more work on this.

- (breathing deeply)
- Hey.

You're doin' great.

We'll get there.
I promise.

Nope, nope.

Nope, I need to go to
the ground floor.

Right away. Thank you.

Yep, yep.

Nope, nope.

Thanks.

How are you feeling?

Why didn't you tell me
you were afraid of heights

when we first met?

I guess I just had
one of those old school coaches

that didn't believe in weakness.

Yeah, I had a few
ballet teachers like that.

Truth is,
whenever an aerialist tells me

they're not afraid of heights,
it kinda freaks me out.

Reckless people get hurt.

Well, you should've led
with that.

'Cause I felt like there was
something wrong with me

because I was afraid.

There's nothing wrong with you.

Luna, I need a favor.

I was hoping
the dance floor would be

a little more lively by now.

I thought artists
liked to party.

Um, can you get
the dance floor started?

- Um...
- Katrina's on my case.

Please.

Okay, but I don't wanna
do it by myself.

You guys have to come with me.

Oh, I... I have to go talk
to the caterer about sandwiches,

so, you guys just make it
look like you're having fun.

Did... did she just--

- Yeah, she did.
- Yeah, uh-huh.

Well, I'm not the type of guy

that just spontaneously
starts dancing, so...

- Well, now you are.
- Okay.

Come on.
Let's get this party started.

- Please be gentle.
- (laughing) I can be gentle.

Don't sass me
with your dance moves.

I bet you have some moves.

I have some.

*

*

(breathing deeply)

This is so comfy.

We should just hang out
and skip the rehearsal.

No chance.
We're about a week out.

We're good at this height,

which means, we're taking it
to show height.

- What?
- Time to fly, baby bird.

(thudding)

(sighing)

(Luna breathing heavily)

Is it just me, or is...
is it.. is it hot in here?

It's okay.
You got this.

(exhaling deeply)
My heart's beating really fast.

Okay, so that's your fear.
What is it telling you?

"Go home.
Eat cookies."

(both laughing)

Okay, I want you
to walk me through every step.

Did you wrap yourself correctly?

- Yep.
- Did you do the trick before?

- Yes.
- Okay, how did it go?

I don't know. You tell me.

It went well.
You know that.

And, do you know that
the silks are gonna catch you

when you land at the bottom?

- Yep.
- Okay.

So, if the answer to any
of the questions was "no,"

then you know
that fear is doing

exactly what it needs to be
doing, protecting you.

But, now, you're good.

So, can say, "Thank you, fear.
You've been a worthy partner."

Fear's only good
until it becomes your boss

and paralyzes you, okay?

Let's go.

(breathing heavily)

Thank you, fear!
You are not my boss.

(squealing and laughing)

(both laughing)

- That was awesome!
- Yes!

(laughing) Sorry, sorry,
a little bit sweaty.

- No, it's fine.
- Great work.

Thanks.

(sighing)

I got the birthday aprons.

- Oh.
- You ready?

Yeah.

Now, can you see
if we've got enough lemons?

Yep.

Mm, okay.
This should be enough.

You okay?

You wanna skip
making the cake tonight?

What? No, no!

This is like
my favorite birthday thing.

No, I'm fine, Mom, really.

Hm. Is Bennett coming tomorrow?

Oh, and do you wanna
invite Gabby too?

Uh, I would love
to invite Gabby,

but it might be kinda weird
that I didn't invite Bennett,

and then I would have to invite
Bennett first.

Well, I thought
you did invite him.

- Yeah, I wanted to, but--
- You didn't.

Um, kinda chickened out.

- Oh.
- What?

Just makes sense.

What does that mean?

(laughing) Luna!
You're falling for him.

What?! No!

Yes, if you were just friends,

it wouldn't matter
if he said "no."

- He is just a friend.
- Mm.

And a coach,
and a partner...

And...

It's complicated.

Oh, it's okay if you like him.

He's pretty great.

What's even the point?

Like, even if I did like him,
which I'm not saying I do,

he made it very clear
that he keeps his work life

and his love life separate.

And then, the show's
gonna be over soon,

and he's gonna go back
on the road,

and then I'm gonna be stuck here

in my regular,
two-feet-on-the ground life.

But he's still here right now.
Right?

So, just ask him.

How can someone be brave enough
to do aerial acrobatics,

but chicken out over asking
someone to a barbecue?

Fine, yeah.
Okay, yeah.

- Fear is not my boss.
- There you go.

Okay.

You know, I...
I think we need more lemons.

Luna, send the text.

(muttering)

(sighing)
Okay, I'm gonna--

Let's make the cake so I don't
look at this every 10 seconds.

Okay.

Go. Check!

Oh, it's just
an appointment reminder.

- Mm.
- Just kidding.

(laughing)
He's coming.

See? I told you!

I love it. I knew it.

There you go.

- Okay, now, zest these.
- Okay.

'Cause we just need
two of them...

Please tell me you have
something for tomorrow.

Bennett:
Of course I got her something.

What kind of Neanderthal
do you think I am?

Well, I do remember the cave
that was your teenage bedroom.

- So...
- Okay.

- I've planned a surprise.
- Really?

Yeah.
It's actually pretty cool.

I think you'd be proud.

Okay.
Spill the tea.

No. Bon appetit.

It was a great practice, but,

you didn't
have to drive me home.

Well, what kind of a gentleman
would let the birthday girl

walk back home through
the mean streets of Hazelton.

No, you're right.
I could get kidnapped.

And, like,
force fed apple pie.

Not all superheroes wear capes.

- (laughing)
- Yep.

Okay, well, um,
I'll see you later at my mom's.

Hey, Luna, if...
if, um...

I just... I, uh, was wondering
if you, uh, were busy later

'cause I wanted
to surprise you with something,

- but only if you're free--
- I'm free!

- Oh, good.
- Yeah.

Yeah, well, then,
I'll see you later.

Okay.

*

* Happy birthday *

* Dear Luna *

* Happy birthday *

* To you *

Woo!

Come on, sweat heart!

Oh, we got one left!

Okay.

- Oh!
- Mom: Woo!

Mom: Yeah!

Oh, wow.
Is that a treehouse?

Oh, yeah, Richard built that
for us when we were kids.

Henry and I practically spent
all summer up there.

Wow. I always wanted
one of those.

- Can I go take a peek?
- Yeah, sure.

Probably just
full of old cobwebs.

Let's go.

Wow.

It's been so long
since I've been up there.

Last time I went up there,

I fell off
and then I, uh, broke my arm.

And then Richard
put in stairs.

And, uh, yeah,
I think that might be

where my fear of heights
comes from.

So, are you okay
with going back up there,

or, should we just
stay down here?

Yeah, let's do it.

Wow!

This was so much bigger
when I was little.

Oh, my treasure chest.
(laughing)

Okay, so this was from
a ballet recital

where I was a bird.

(both laughing)

Wow. This girl looks
ready to dance.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, I was so psyched
when I first got these.

*

Uh, when I...
when I first started dancing,

when I was little,
my parents were divorced,

and, uh, my dad used to take me
to all my practices

and all my recitals
as our thing.

And, um, then later, when
Richard came into our lives,

my dad just kinda started
drifting away.

And as an adult,
I... I understand

there's a lot of reasons
why he did what he did,

but, as like a 9-year-old me,
I felt like...

..like my dancing
wasn't good enough,

or like I wasn't good enough
to keep him in my life.

I don't know.

Something about
what we've been doing...

I feel like I've been
just smashing those old stories

I used to tell myself.

It's great.

And, honestly, I'm, uh,

really scared of losing it.

Well, you don't have to.

*

Mom: Luna!
Gabby's leaving!

Come say "goodbye," okay?

- Come on!
- Mom, yep!

Yep, comin'...
comin' down.

We should...
we should probably go, because,

we don't wanna miss
your surprise.

- There's a surprise?
- Yeah, yeah, let's go.

(both laughing)

*

(audience applauding
and cheering)

*

(audience applauding
and cheering)

A lot of circus artists,
when they're not touring,

they come back to the streets
and can busk.

And, obviously,
I know that this isn't silks.

This is Lyra,
but, I really think

there's a lot to take from this.

Yeah, I was thinking maybe
we can incorporate some of that

into our choreography.

Bennett: Yeah, I was thinking
the same thing.

*

(audience applauding
and cheering)

(sighing) We changed
the order of things.

The banjo number's
gonna go after yours.

(sighing)
Sounds good.

Have you seen my phone?

Uh, yeah, it's right here.

It's... it's blowin' up.

(laughing)
Of course it is.

All right, I gotta go to
the arts and crafts fair.

Okay, I have been in and out
of this kitchen all morning,

and you're still in
the same spot

staring at the counter
like a sad cat.

- (laughing)
- Do you need to talk?

No, no, I mean,
you don't have time.

Just go.

Of course I have time.

What's up?

Um, I don't know.

I'm just... I'm scared.

Of the routine?

No. Of feelings.

Oh. For Luna.

Yeah, I just...

I can't let myself
go back there, you know?

What? Why not?

Because reckless people
get hurt.

Having feelings for someone
is hardly reckless.

I got my tour dates,
my new contract.

It means a whole other year
on the road.

How can I ask her to be
in a relationship with me?

I mean, that would be reckless.

Just blindly jumping in
without any consideration

for what our reality
would be like.

Sure. Long distance
is hard, but--

And you know how much
my schedule caused me

to let you down.

Well, you haven't
let me down this time.

Well, I still could.

Come on. The show is
gonna be incredible.

My work is inevitably
gonna get between us.

You're lucky enough
to have someone amazing

show up in your life,

while doing the thing
you love the most?

That's a gift.

Yeah, it's...
it's not that easy.

- It is.
- (laughing)

Gabby: Talk to her.

Don't decide for her
that it's not gonna work.

Look.

- I gotta go.
- Yeah.

But, feelings don't have
to be your enemy.

They're pointing you
in a direction for a reason.

(laughing)

What if that direction
is straight to heartbreak?

But, what if it isn't?

*

Rosie: (laughing)
That's great.

Richard:
It looks great, Henry.

- Right, okay.
- All right, gang.

So, up next, is the new library
and the Fletcher family remodel.

We finally just finished here.

Can we just enjoy this
for a moment?

I can take the lead
on the remodel.

Well...

Luna, your mom and I, and Henry,
we've been thinking.

Look, we all know I've been
obsessed with building

since my LEGO days.

Right, and he's always known

that this is
what he was meant to do.

But if you think
you have another path...

Something that puts
all of your talents first...

..then you should do it.

Look, you helped us out
in a bind.

Last thing we wanna do
is hold you back.

Listen, we are not
kicking you out or anything.

If you decide to stay,
we're happy, but,

if you decide to go
a different way,

well, we're also happy.

Whatever you choose.

We're proud of you.

Thank you.

I love you all so much.

We love you too.

I'll think about it,
but after the show.

Right now I'm just
fully focused on this.

Sounds like a good plan.

Did you tell Bennett
how you feel?

Oh, no, no.

I can't.

What if he doesn't feel
the same way?

I'm just gonna ruin the show.

Might make it better.

Ready to kill it tomorrow?

Yeah. You?

- Yeah.
- What was that?

- What?
- You hesitated when...

You sound worried.

What? No, I'm not.

- I'm not worried.
- You sure?

- Yeah, yeah, no.

I'm just a little
uncertain about the future.

You know?

But, I don't wanna let it
sift into the show.

I shouldn't be doing that.

Mm-hm.
You wanna talk about it?

(both laughing)

No, I think we should just
focus on the routine.

That's...
That's all that matters.

Uh, okay, did you hear back
from Cirque du Rêve?

Are they gonna come see
the routine?

It's really good.

I think they'd want you
to do it on tour.

Yeah, I just... I don't think
I should've invited them.

What? Why not?

I just don't
wanna get my hopes up.

I know they'll say "no."

I... I think
I'm gonna tell them not to come.

I just don't know
if the routine's right

for the tour.

- Is it because of me?
- No, no, no.

Let's just... let's just
focus on the routine, okay?

- Hey.
- Hi.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Don't mind us.

Katrina just wanted to see
how awesome you guys are.

Just pretend like
we're not even here.

- Okay?
- Yeah, okay.

*

Are you okay?
Slow, slow, slow, slow, slow.

(grunting)
Yeah, yeah, I'm just rattled.

- Is she all right?
- I think so.

Luna, do you need a doctor?

- No, it's fine.
- Let's just take a break, okay?

Good idea.
I should leave.

They're gonna do great tomorrow.
I promise.

You know what they say,

"Bad dress rehearsal,
great opening!"

They also say,
"Don't count your chickens

before they're hatched."

I hope you know
what you're doing, Gabby.

This town can't survive
a massive flop.

You know what?
I'm calling it.

Wait. We can go again.

Why'd you bring her here?

She's my boss.
She has to see all the numbers.

Yeah, well, today wasn't
the day for that.

- Bennett--
- We can regroup tomorrow.

Tomorrow's the show!

*

Oh, hey.
That was my bad.

I should've given you
a heads up or...

Yeah, I don't wanna
talk about it.

(sighing)

(people chattering)

*

(sighing deeply)

Hey, Gabby.
Gabby!

- Luna, hi.
- Hey.

Thank you!
Everything looks great.

- Is Bennett here?
- Oh, no.

I haven't seen him.

Because I was just at the gym
warming up and he never showed,

and then I called him,
and I texted him,

and I'm about to head
to the theater.

He's gonna show up, right?

He does this sometimes
when he's processing,

but there's no way,
he's gonna miss the show.

Okay, let's go.

(footsteps approaching)

Hi. Hope this is okay?

There's a lot
going on out there.

- Yeah, sure.
- (sighing)

(sighing deeply)

I'm sorry
for what I said at the studio.

I was just nervous.

Are you okay after yesterday?

Physically? Yeah.

- (laughing weakly)
- Are you nervous?

Yeah. Yeah.

- How are you doing?
- I'm petrified.

(both laughing nervously)

And I don't have to do
gymnastics in the air.

Oh! I'm making it worse.

No, no, it's okay.
It's okay.

We should do this thing
that I do.

- We go through all the steps.
- Okay.

- Do you know the lyrics?
- Yes.

Have you performed
this song before?

- Yes.
- Did it go well?

- Yeah.
- Do you know when to come in?

- I do.
- Do you trust your partner?

- Absolutely.
- There you go.

If the answer was "no" to any of
the questions that I asked,

then your fear would be
protecting you.

But it's not.

So you can thank fear.
It's not your boss.

(both laughing)

(sighing) I just wish
I believed that I could do it.

Everyone else believes it.

We tell ourselves a lot of lies.

- (both laughing)
- We do.

Let's not believe
those lies anymore.

Let's not.
You can do this.

- (both laughing)
- You can do it.

I can do this!

I can do this.

Thank you.

(sighing happily)

(audience cheering
and applauding)

(piano playing)

*

* Did you ever see
two Yankees *

* Part upon a foreign shore? *

* When the good ship's
just about to start *

* For Old New York once more? *

* With a tear-dimmed eye,
they say "goodbye" *

* They're friends
without a doubt *

* When the man on the pier *

* Shouts, "Let them clear!" *

* As the ship strikes out *

* Give my regards to Broadway *

* Remember me
to Herald Square *

* Tell all the gang
at 42nd Street *

(whispering) Bennett!
Where were you?

- I can explain.
- Shh!

I wanna see this.

* Whisper of how
I'm yearning *

* To mingle with
the old time throng *

* Give my regards
to Old Broadway *

* And say that I'll be there,
"'ere long" *

(audience applauding
and cheering)

Okay, okay, we're up next.
I gotta change.

Come on. Let's go.

Luna. Luna, wait.

What's going on?
Are we doing the show?

Yeah, of course.
Of course.

You're up next.

Five more minutes
and I need you on deck.

Listen.
Luna, I'm sorry.

I let fear become my boss.

And all these fears, they have
nothing to do with you.

They have everything
to do with me.

I think you're amazing.

What you've done thus far
is truly remarkable.

You've inspired me
to become a better artist.

Our routine is not just
a bunch of technical movements.

It's... it's a love story.

And I'm just wondering
if you want to tell it with me.

Absolutely.

(audience applauding
and cheering)

* Give me all of you *

* For a second or two *

* Nothing comes close to how
you love me like you do *

* When we get together
everything is brand new *

* We could be forever
and we'll never ever lose *

* You can't be something *

* I can live without *

* I'm speechless *

* You got me on the edge *

* Catch me *

* 'Cause I'm fallin' for you *

* Fallin' for you *

* Catch me *

* 'Cause this time
is with you *

* For so long *

* For something real *

* I gave up,
but you gave in *

* You maybe *

* Feel like I belong *

*

* Give me all of you *

* For a second or two *

* Nothing comes close
to how you love me like you do *

* When we get together
everything is brand new *

* We could be forever
and we'll never ever lose *

* You're waiting
and I'm waiting *

* For so long,
for something real *

Wow.

* Oh, yeah *

* Fallin' for you *

- (couple laughing)
- Oh, you guys!

You wonderful people!
I knew you could do it.

- She's a pro.
- Thank you, Bennett.

You were fantastic.
Can I borrow him?

Some people want his autograph.

Yeah, sure.

You were amazing!

Thank you, thank you.

I gotta say,
that whole thing was bandanas.

Seriously, you are so brave,
and that was beautiful.

Thank you.

You were right.

About the show...
(sighing)

..about me.

Thank you.

You were incredible.

This town is lucky to have you
and your persistence.

We'll have this show every year.

And how does "Managing Director
of The Arts Festival" sound?

- Like a dream come true.
- (laughing)

- Hi.
- Luna, I owe you an apology.

That was... inspiring.

Thank you.

But, my photographer blew it
and didn't get any shots.

Can we get you on stage
for a sec?

Oh, yeah.
Sure.

Hey.
I was looking for you.

Come on.
They're waiting for us.

*

Where's Candice?

Didn't the photographer
want more pictures?

No, I think
the pictures were fine.

This is just an excuse
to get you here.

You know, I've been wanting
to tell you something

for a really long time, and,

I think this was
the perfect spot to do it.

Luna: I'd have to agree.

*

- I have some news.
- Oh!

(both laughing)

- Hope it's worth the wait.
- Yeah.

Elise is not
comin' back on tour.

Oh.

Yeah, and the director
from Cirque du Rêve came.

He saw the routine.
He saw you.

And he wants to offer you a job.

Wait. What?

Say that again.

Would you like
to go on tour with me?

Yes.

Yeah, I would...
I would love that.

Yeah?
(laughing)
