All language subtitles for Blue Water High s02e10

There's too much choice and not enough
time.

It's mine, I want mine.

Aiming for your head, get down.

You're the only one in town.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.

I always think you can tell a lot about
people by the way they dance.

Look at Amy, for instance.

She's like a force of nature, totally
unstoppable.

Then there's Eric.

Not much style, but plenty of heart.

Corey looks like he downloaded the steps
from a website.

And Rachel's moving to a jungle beat no
one else can hear.

Then there's Mike.

Mike?

There he is.

What's he up to?

Mike, what are you doing over here?
Check out this oar from the 1946 First

Championship. You're looking at an oar?
Yeah.

Why not? There's heaps of amazing stuff
here.

Mike, this is a dance party, not a
history lesson. Come on. No, really, I'm

fine. Well, you can't stand around here
all night. Look, I'm just not a very

good dancer, okay? You don't have to be
good. Only people who are good play

things like that. I bet you were dancing
before you could even walk. It doesn't

matter. No one cares. Just enjoy
yourself.

Okay.

So he dances like a washing machine.

But... A really nice bushing machine.

Okay, I'm on it.

What's going on here, Flo?

Um, they're training, aren't they?

I can see that.

They're all far too relaxed for my
liking. They need something to shake

Any ideas?

How about a Sprite con?

Yeah, not bad.

Let's make it a real Sprite.

And as for your new assignment, they are
due the end of next week.

The psychology of learning?

That's right. You were to observe the
process of someone learning a new skill.

What kind of skill? Your choice.

Anything from playing chess to learning
Hindustani. And you can work in groups

of up to five.

How about six?

Okay. Since the Thola Blue Gang are
clearly inseparable.

Our first step is to choose the person
and the skill, and I need that by

tomorrow.

Any ideas for this assignment?

We could get my teacher to cook.

Let's not attempt the impossible.

Hey, I can cook. I cooked spaghetti on
toast the other night. Thank you. Yeah,

my stomach still hasn't forgotten it.

That's three bucks each, guys.

I could teach one of you to out -sail.
Yeah, after last time, you can count me

out.

Guys, go on. What is it?

Hey -ya!

Mikey boy!

Don't be cruel. He's not that bad.

He's not that good.

He just needs to relax.

A few lessons wouldn't hurt either.

You can't teach someone to dance.

They can either do it or they can't.
That's rubbish. Anyone can learn to

Even him? Yes, even him.

That's it.

We could teach Mike to dance.

No, I thought he said not to attempt the
impossible.

I think it's a great idea.

I'm not too sure.

Come on, you said anyone could learn.

Wait, who's going to teach him?

Brooke, you've had lessons, haven't you?
Yeah, a couple of years ago.

Better than all of us.

He'd never go for it anyway.

He will if you ask him. What's that
supposed to mean?

Oh, nothing.

No, sorry. Not interested.

Come on, Mike. Think about it. It could
be fun. Yeah, for everyone else

involved. Why are you so reluctant?

Look, I just don't want to do it, okay?

Okay, fine.

Forget I asked.

Oh, guys, can you give us a hand for a
sec?

We need to get these unloaded.

Surf skis? What are these for? Well, you
need to practice on something before

the comp.

Comp? What comp?

Surf ski comp.

Next week.

You're all in it.

What's a surf ski race have to do with
anything?

I thought we were surfers, not
lifesavers. It's all about competition.

About learning to compete.

Surf skis are just a tool to help you
hone your competitive skills.

But we'll be up against guys who've been
on skis half their lives. How do we

compete against them? That's the
challenge. And there'll be points riding

Points? I haven't ridden a surf ski in
years. Most of us haven't. Then you'd

better get serious about training
tomorrow.

Hadn't you?

Why are these things so heavy?

Hey, maybe we can do this for our
learning assignment.

Except everyone's on them, so... We have
no one left to do the observing.

So what are we going to do?

Don't ask me.

Could eat someone chickened out on
learning to dance.

Give us a break, guys. Look, if he
doesn't want to do it, it's his choice.

I know, but now I have to find something
else to do.

In a hurry.

Why is everyone on my back?

I mean, it's great for Amy to have a
bright idea, but I'm the one who has to

it. It's all right, Ma.

Don't worry about it, okay?

Pretty frustrated.

I know.

It's exactly what I want to see.

You're a sick man, Simmo. No, it's good
for them.

A bit of humility nourishes the soul.

That's it!

Keep at it!

I still don't understand the point of
this.

Well, it's about attitude.

Didn't you see how much everyone was
putting in today?

If you apply that to your surfing, you
guys will be unstoppable.

Okay.

But I don't see why we have to be in a
comp.

Especially one we have no chance of
winning.

It's not about winning, Mike.

It's about challenging yourself.

If you don't try out new stuff, you get
stuck in a rut, which is where you guys

are at right now.

Come on. I think you've earned
breakfast.

Brooke, about these dancing lessons.

Mike, I told you. It's okay. No, I want
you to be honest.

Do you really think I can learn? Of
course.

Everyone can dance. Dancing's just a
state of mind.

And you seriously think you can teach
me?

Only if you're willing to give it a go.
You can't teach someone that doesn't

want to learn.

I've had a thing, and I want to do it.

Are you sure?

Why have it suddenly changed?

I don't know. Maybe it's about time I
got out of my rut. Great.

That's a really gutsy move of you, mate.

You too.

You have to teach me.

They said we can use this place any time
there isn't band practice.

Cool. Let's get set up, then.

So, what do you want to teach him,
Brooke?

I've got hip -hop, pop, rock, big
country. I think we need a real dance.

know, not just shaking your hips around.
Something with real steps and movement.

Good idea.

It'll work better for the assignment if
it's hard.

And what's the harder dance?

The tango. The tango? What's the tango?

It's a South American dance, but maybe
that's too hard.

No, I think Tango's perfect.

It'll make a great presentation for the
class.

No one said anything about dancing in
front of the class.

We thought it'd be the best way to
present our project.

Don't worry about it, Mike. You'll be
fine.

Dancing's just a state of mind.

Remember?

Fly, fly, quick, out, together.

Fly, fly, quick, out, together.

Cross, cross, quick, out.

One hour in, and the progress is slow.

Slow and seriously painful to watch.

Behind, side, front, together.

Quick, out, together.

OK, enough of the basics. Now we can
actually start dancing.

First, you need to know how to hold your
partner.

So put your left hand up like this and
hold my right.

Like this?

Yeah. Um, your palm's a bit sweaty.

Yeah, sorry, it's a bit hot in here.

Okay, now, your other hand goes on my
back.

Quite high.

Here? Yeah, but we're too far apart. You
need to pull me in closer.

How's that?

Closer still.

My dance teacher said the tango is about
two people moving as one.

That should do it.

Okay, let's try it.

Music.

Corey, music.

Okay, ready?

Go.

Slide, slide, quick, out.

Ow! Sorry, are you okay?

Fine. I didn't need that toe anyway.

Um, can we have a break? I'm a bit
thirsty. In a minute. Let's try it a bit

more. Slide,

slide, quick, out.

I did it again.

My bad. It's all right. Keep going.

Slide, slide.

Quick, out, together.

They're getting better.

Now they're only capsizing by every
second wave.

Doesn't matter.

Main thing is to have him go.

Look at Eric.

Concentrating so hard he hasn't said a
word in five minutes.

It's got to be some sort of record.

Simmo, isn't this going to be a bit
embarrassing for Solar Blue? I mean,

no way they'll be real competitors by
next week. We're going to look like a

bunch of idiots.

I know that.

They know that too.

That's what will motivate them to go the
extra mile.

They've got too much pride to let
themselves down.

All right.

How's lesson two going?

Is he getting down funky yet?

I don't know about funky, but he is
getting down.

Way down.

What does that mean?

It means it looks like he's getting
worse, not better.

Worse? Mm -hmm.

The way he's going, by lesson five,
we'll be lucky if he can walk.

Mike, you have to concentrate. I'm
sorry.

It's not that easy.

Give him a break, guys. It's only lesson
two.

What if he has some kind of, like,
mental block when it comes to dancing?

Yeah, what if he's like... Tango Lexi.

Tango Lexi?

We're just worried if he doesn't
improve, this assignment will be a major

I mean, it's not too late to ditch it
and try something else.

Look, we just need to hang in there a
bit longer.

We're talking about one of the hardest
answers there is. He's not going to

it on day two.

But you do think he'll get it in the
end?

Of course.

I'm almost sure he will.

Almost?

No, I'm sure.

Okay?

You've all got the basics down?

We have.

So I thought we'd have a little practice
comp. You mean today?

I mean now.

All you've got to do is paddle out
around the buoy. First one back wins.

Is everyone ready?

Go!

What did you say about them not
improving?

Okay, I take it back.

Amazing what a bit of competition and
pride can do.

That's it, guys.

Give up the pace.

Push it. Go.

Work. Well done.

putting 100 % into this, aren't you? Of
course, why wouldn't I?

Well, why don't you do the same with
dancing?

Dancing? Come on, Brooke. No, tell me
why.

You can't compare this to dancing.

Not in the same universe. They're both
about learning a new skill.

But dancing's just a bit of fun. It
won't be a bit of fun when we have to

front of the class looking like idiots.

Brooke, I'm really trying. You know
that.

When you're dancing, you're not focused.

You're not mentally in the zone like you
are with this.

The thing is, When we're dancing, there
are so many distractions.

Distractions? Like what, for example?

Like... Like

the others watching me.

Is that the problem?

I might be a bit paranoid, but I keep
thinking they're laughing at me.

Fair enough.

Easily fixed.

What? So how are we supposed to video
you? Hey, we can't do it from out there.

Trust me, this will only work if you're
not here.

Drag, turn, quick, out, together.

Drag, turn, quick, out, together.

You're not turning in the right spot.

Let's watch the tape back and see what
you're doing wrong.

No, no. Can we keep going? I think I'm
getting it now.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Okay.

You ready?

Yeah.

Drag, turn, quick, out, together.

Drag, turn, quick, out, together.

Mike, you're doing it. You're actually
doing it. I did it. I can actually turn.

You're doing good.

Thanks,

fans.

Thank you and goodbye.

Now, where were we?

Try shifting your weight back.

Let's just stop the noise going under.

You're supposed to drag there, not
swivel, remember?

Sorry, I keep getting those two mixed
up.

You've got all the parts down separately
and now you just have to put them

together. That's my problem. I just
can't get the sequence right.

The tango's all about trusting your
partner.

I'll take the lead and you just follow
me.

That was brilliant.

Why can't dance be as easy as surfing?

It is.

Well, maybe for you. When you catch a
wave, you work with it. You don't try

fight it.

It's the same with dancing, except music
is the wave.

Sounds simple in theory.

It is simple.

Why don't we try it right now?

Here?

People will see us.

What people?

It's almost deserted.

There's no music anyway.

I'll count the beats. Come on, Mike.
Give it a go.

You have no idea how silly I feel.

No one else can ever get me to do this.

I know.

Blind, blind, quick out together.

Blind, blind, quick out together.

Get the video camera, quick. What?

Check this out.

Yeah, I'm on it.

Is that part of the lesson?

Absolutely.

There'll be a test on it later.

And in case anyone's forgotten, remember
the surf ski comp is tomorrow.

Any final questions?

The sergeant told us how we get points.

Yeah, and if we have to finish in the
top five, there's going to be a lot of

zeros. I know that, so I've come up with
a target time for each of you. If you

break it, you get three points.

And if we don't? It's on a sliding scale
depending how close you get. You've got

30 seconds leeway until it's back to
zero. 30 seconds, that's all.

Well, at least there's no pressure.

We're into the final turn of the men's
surf ski competition and the field is

spread wide.

How they doing?

Not bad.

I don't think they'll break their
targets, but they won't be far out.

Girls go three -pointers.

See how the girls go, eh?

Times?

They're doing fine, but they've still
got to catch those waves.

Go, Roach!

What's Brooke doing?

Maybe she's looking for a bigger break.

Brooke?

She's white. Lean back.

There's no three -pointer for Brooke.

Yeah,

I'm okay. But my shoulder's not.

Did I get anywhere near my target time?

Sorry. You were on track until that
wiped out.

I tried to stop it nosing in, but...
Don't worry about it.

You did really well for one week's
training, and you still get a point for

having the guts to finish the event with
that injury.

Guess that's something.

How's it feeling now?

Not great.

It's really stiff.

That's not so bad.

Thanks. It's worth the bet.

Why? Our presentation's tomorrow.

Don't worry.

You said the tango was about trusting
your partner, remember?

I know, but... Then you'll just have to
trust me, won't you?

In other words, ladies and gentlemen, we
chose a student that was almost

completely lacking every skill required.

Thanks for the flattery, Eric.

As this short clip will demonstrate.

No one told me they were going to show
you that.

It'll just make everyone more impressed
later.

By breaking the skills into components
and adding repetition, our student

more proficient with the basic steps.

Eventually.

But he still had a serious problem
putting it all together into an actual

routine.

much more embarrassed with my need.

It wasn't until the student was put into
a more relaxed environment and given

some additional motivation that he was
suddenly able to put all the pieces

together correctly.

Where'd they get that from?

I don't believe it.

I'm going to get them for this.

Sorry, folks. Don't want to spoil the
grand finale.

Do we, guys?

All right.

Rachel, Corey, you ready?

To conclude our presentation, ladies and
gentlemen, student teacher will now

perform for you the tango.

I hope my shoulder doesn't look down.

There's no time to worry about it now.

I just have to follow my lead.

Now, where have I had that before?

Well, teacher, did I pass?

Definitely top of the class.

You can tell a lot about people by the
way they dance.

But before you can do that, you've got
to get them to dance in the first place.
