...then the Mashed Potato, the Hustle.

In the '70s, everyone wanted to learn to dance like

John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever.

But in 1990,

all anyone wants to do is "Vogue".

Madonna's song, "Vogue", is in

its third week at number one on the pop charts,

And the once-obscure dance moves

popularized by the Material Girl's hit,

borrowed from New York's hidden ball culture,

are now truly "in fashion".

What's your name?

I'm Missy Thompson from Staten Island.

I work as an executive assistant and I started taking

the late ferry and having my husband order pizza

for dinner so I could stay in the city and take this class.

I've met girls from New Jersey and Scarsdale

and the Upper West Side, even.

And what do you think it...

that it is that's drawing all of you here?

Madonna!

If you're interested in learning how to Vogue,

classes are being taught at the YMCA

three days a week by resident experts.

But be sure to sign up early.

Channel 5 News is being told that most classes

are already full for the next four weeks.

Sue Simmons, Manhattan.

You got to help me.

Slow down. Looks like you about to have a heart attack.

I need you to add one more class this week.

I've kicked gangbangers off the basketball court

and shooed homeless men out of the pool, no problem.

But these bridge and tunnel bitches are terrifying.

- You better stop with that. - Honestly, Damon.

I've never seen anything like it.

- Hmm. - They can't get enough of you.

- Aw... - That little half-smile makes

- all the ladies drop they drawers. - Okay.

I am more than happy to add another class,

let's just make sure that everybody keeps their drawers

up, okay?

Five, six, seven,

eight. One. Two.

Three, four.

♪ Do you understand... ♪

Crisper. Crisper.

Now, I need you to move

your arms as if they're swords.

They're swords, okay?

And knives, okay? Yes.

Right there. Uh-huh. Come on.

Step up to the front.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two.

Three.

Four. Word.

Clap it up, clap it up, clap it up!

Hey. Do you think you can

teach my husband to move his hips like you do?

- Is he black? - No.

Then sorry. No can do.

Oh... Oh.

- No, but good work. - You're hilarious.

- Thank you. Thanks. - Good work. Good work, you guys.

- Thank you. - Excellent work.

Great work today.

Thanks. First time?

Was it that obvious?

Yes.

- Oh... - But,

you can get the hang of it, okay? Uh, you know.

The movements are pretty simple, it's just about gettin' it

- in your body. You know? - Now, I know that's not true.

You know, I'm not actually here to learn how to dance.

I'm here for you.

I'm a scout.

I recruit dancers for concert tours.

There is an address on the back of this card,

be there at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday. I'm skipping you to the front

- of the line. - Uh, for what?

For your audition for Madonna's Blonde Ambition tour.

The category is...

Live...

Work...

Pose!

♪ Pose 2x05 ♪ What Would Candy Do?

- Synced and corrected by Firefly - - www.addic7ed.com -

I told y'all this was gonna

be the year we break out.

First Miss Angel with her modeling

and now Damon on the road...

...with Ma-fucking-donna!

Oh, my God.

You gonna be a celebrity.

Like, bodyguards and everything.

I'm telling you, Mother's always right.

- Thank you, daughter. - No, but hold your horses.

It's just an audition.

You want me to be your manager like how I am with Angel?

I can manage the both of y'all.

You could be my second client.

What time's the audition?

Saturday, 9:00 in the morning.

Yo, how did you even hear about it?

One of the dancers from the Taylor Dane tour

introduced me to the talent scout.

So I showed her some dance moves

right there on the spot.

Didn't even shake her hand first, she told me she was

gonna jump me to the front of the line.

Boy, what's that mean, "the front of the line"?

It means that she already knows that I'm better

than all those other bitches auditioning.

They just dancers

copying what they've seen in the video.

- Mm-hmm. - I mean, this,

this is our life.

Yeah, you think Madonna's gonna be there?

I hear she likes Latin boys.

I don't know. But I hear she's really hands-on

- with everything. - I always thought,

given the opportunity,

that she and I would be

- best friends. - Me, too.

Please, like that specimen of perfection

would be desperately seeking to spend

a moment with any of you peasants.

♪ Pump it, pump it... ♪

That being said, if you do book this job,

I will be expecting an introduction.

I'll try to send you all a postcard from Cannes.

I've never in my life...

...wanted something more than this.

I mean, forget Al B. Sure! or Taylor Dane.

This is Madonna.

This is worldwide.

Even my mom and...

- ...dad may see this. - I'm so proud of you.

I am so proud of myself.

Look at the opportunities I've provided for my children.

What you're about to do is going to make this house

the most legendary of all times.

♪ Make my day. ♪

You know, it's nice to see you not depressed

- on that couch no more. - Uh, depressed?

Girl. I'm just stretching.

Enjoying that extra space

since them rug rats moved up out of there.

Now you know you can't fool your mother.

It's natural to miss someone even if that someone

is a low-down dog of a cheater.

Have you seen Ricky lately?

At a ball here and there.

- You know, I tried to talk to him. - Mm-hmm?

And he pretended like he didn't see me

and just walked away. I just don't understand

how you can love somebody and give them your heart and soul

and they just...

they just... get over you so easily.

I doubt that Ricky is over it.

He's just not showing it, that's all.

You don't get over your first love that easy.

Ricky wasn't my first love.

Dance was.

I feel...

Feel like I'm falling in love all over again.

Now, see, that's my son.

An artist.

Using his heartbreak for work.

Do you really think...

I can be in Madonna's league?

Yes, I do.

I believe you got the talent and the energy

and all you need is a break.

Thank you.

Wait, hold on.

There's someone you got to talk to before you go

- to that audition. - Who?

- Helena. - No. No...

No. No, no, no, no, no. You know she's not gonna let me

drop a scholarship just to go dance behind

- some pop star. - That is her call,

but if she says no, you're staying in school.

You only got one semester until you graduate, Damon.

One.

Think about it.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Second break, step, step.

Mess around. Step, step. Passé.

Step, step. Stag jump.

Table jump.

Straighten those legs on the jeté.

Come on, students. Get it together.

Damon, come over here.

Show the combination from the top.

Five, six, seven, eight.

And that is how you do it, class.

Try to keep up, dancers.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Oh, Helena, wait.

Hey, you. Good work today.

If only the rest of my seniors were

- as dedicated as you are. - Thank you.

Uh, but I need to talk to you about something.

Uh, can I buy you coffee?

- Sure. - Great.

I know you're disappointed,

but I really want to do it.

It's not classical dance,

but... it is a would tour.

It sounds like an incredible opportunity.

It also sounds like you've made up your mind.

- I have. But... - Hmm.

...Blanca won't let me audition

unless I get your permission to do it.

I mean, you bent over backwards to get me that scholarship.

And I never want to disrespect you

by going against your wishes, I...

I...

Maybe I need to...

help you understand how much it means to me

that somebody thinks that I'm good enough to audition, I...

What?

I know you're good enough, Damon.

I was your age when Lester Horton

asked me to join his company.

My teacher at the time thought

I was crazy to drop my studies

and go dance for him.

But she also knew...

those audiences needed to see me.

A strong, talented black woman

taking up space in those white concert halls

and auditoriums.

The world needs to see you, Damon.

A man who knows who he is.

I'm not going to say no to this level of exposure.

Even if pop music isn't my cup of tea.

You have my blessing.

You don't need a teacher anymore.

You're the teacher now.

Teach the world who you are.

Thank you, Helena.

But you got to promise me you'll come back

and finish your degree when this tour is over.

I promise. I will.

Good.

Now... go to rehearsal.

All right, y'all, all hands on deck.

We got to do right by Damon and make sure

he gets the support he deserves.

This is your moment, baby.

This is the moment I have been waiting for, children.

And I need each of you to do your part.

Little Ricky here has been presented

with a once-in-a-lifetime

mainstream opportunity.

We cannot let him fuck this up.

All right, listen,

our baby boy has got the goods.

He just don't got that polish,

that star-level sheen yet.

Quiet.

We all need to chip in and get Damon a look

- to make him stand out. - I won't coddle you.

I don't nurture.

And I'll never deliver inspiring pep talks that end in hugs.

But... I am a provider.

And I need Wintour to yield results.

I expect excellence. Nothing less.

So go out and make this boy over.

Let Mother inspect you, child.

Hmm.

Mm.

My work is done.

I have washed off the filth of Evangelista.

You are officially a Wintour.

Now, let me ask you something.

Do you still carry a torch for Damon?

Please.

He's ancient history.

Good. We Wintours are ruthless.

I expect you to leave him beaten,

balled up in a corner and crying for his brick of a mother.

And if you are unable to bring glory to my house

with a spot on Madonna's tour,

don't bother returning.

- Oh! - Whoa!

Yes, bitch! Aw, you is looking

fly as hell. Look at you, all shiny and polished

just like Momma said.

We see you, and she ain't lying.

Now, get some fuel before your big day.

I can't eat right now.

My stomach can't stop turning.

Aw, that's just butterflies in your belly.

- That's good luck. - Not if they make you

shit yourself while you're doing a thing...

Okay, listen up.

Damon, you ready.

You got the talent.

You're intelligent.

You look good.

And more important, you got heart,

and that's what they're gonna see.

So break a leg, baby.

I don't know where I would be without you all.

And no matter what happens, we always gonna be here.

- Hm. - And I'm so proud of you.

Thank you.

Yeah, and it just got

a little harder for me to stand out.

Looks like we're in the same group.

I mean, I shouldn't be surprised that I see a familiar face.

Looks like every dancer from the city is here.

Well, they looking for the best of the best.

Looks like we the only two from ballroom, though.

Think we got a good shot?

I think you got a good shot.

Thanks.

- Group seven. - Good luck.

You, too.

Y'all have an opportunity

to go on tour with the biggest

pop star working today.

You know why you're here, so show me what you got.

Everybody in there was.

Especially him.

Do you really think we got a shot

- at getting this callback? - They got to call us back.

I think it's definitely one of the three of us.

Well, I guess we wait for that call.

- Yeah, I hope you get that call. - Thank you.

I hope I get that call, too.

Mother, can you sit down? You're making me nervous.

It's been a day since your audition.

How long were they gonna make you wait?

They should be getting back to me today.

Oh!

Hello?

Yeah, okay, one sec.

Damon, it's for you.

Hello?

I understand.

Thank you so much.

- What did they say? - I, uh,

I got the callback.

Good.

I got the callback.

We got the callback.

Thanks for calling.

Oh, Damon.

I got a callback.

- What? - I can't believe it.

I've been working so hard for this!

And it's... Let me tell you,

- it's all worth it. - You about to dance for Madonna!

No, no, no, not yet, not yet. It-It's just a callback,

- it's just a callback. - What? Just a callback?

This is about acceptance. Someone from ballroom culture

is about to get their chance, you're about to be a part of...

No, you about to influence popular culture.

Oh, my baby about to be mainstream!

You're still at it? Enough.

Come lay with me before we head out.

I got to practice.

This Butch Queen Vogue Femme category

is not an easy one for me.

The competition tonight is stiff.

I'm stiff.

Come to bed.

After the ball, I promise. I got to conserve my energy.

Humping for 30 minutes isn't gonna affect

whether you win or lose.

How would you know?

You never walked a ball, you ain't in a house.

Excuse me for wanting to be independent,

to not have a master.

The fuck's that supposed to mean?

You're a follower.

You let that bitch Elektra pull you around

like a dog on a short leash.

Ay, you need to watch your mouth.

And you need to grow a pair of balls. Yeah?

Stand up for yourself.

Be a man and say what's on your mind.

Okay, I will.

I made a mistake ending things with Damon.

- Then go back to him! - I can't believe

I ever blew up my life for you.

Damon believed in me, in my dreams.

You're just a selfish, self-centered bitch.

Tired of your toxic-ass energy.

Toxic? Yeah, I'm living the happy life

you're pretending to live. I don't need to pollute

my body with the negativity you keep spreading.

That's not what you were saying last night when your legs

- were behind my shoulders. - You know,

if your swerve game was so good...

- Mm-hmm? - ...you wouldn't need a map

to find my G-spot.

- I got some advice for you, boo. - Mm.

- Mm-hmm. - Learn to swallow your pride

as well as you do men and maybe

- you wouldn't end up alone. - Boy, bye. I'm blessed

and highly favored. I will not be alone!

Tonight is the last night that Ricky has the opportunity

to practice for his audition with Queen Madonna,

otherwise known as my future best friend.

While I was praying for guidance on how best

to help dear Ricky, a single question

kept appearing in my mind.

W.W.C.D.?

What would Candy do?

She was not a thinker. She did not have

the capacity to ruminate on a problem.

She took action,

which is what we are going to do.

Is that Candy's hammer?

Her prized possession.

And if she were here, she would use it...

to break Damon's motherfucking foot.

It's the only way to ensure Ricky's victory

and my topless sunbathing vacation in Capri with Miss M.

So, you want us to just

stroll up on Damon

- and smash him in the foot? - Do I have

to explain everything?!

You get close and then you throw it at his foot

as hard as you can and in the chaos that follows,

cry and say how sorry you are and that you had just

applied Vaseline Intensive Care lotion to your hands

and the hammer slipped out of them.

Seriously? How're we gonna aim a hammer like that?

Candy would've found a way.

I'm not comfortable with this.

Ricky is good.

He can win on his own.

No.

I will not risk failure.

This is too important

- to this house. - Then why don't you do it?

Oh, shit.

A mother never gets her hands dirty.

As an added incentive, whoever

throws the hammer gets to accompany me

to Madonna's birthday party.

All right, all right, all right.

It's all happening for us, children.

"Vogue" has hit number one on the charts,

and the word is out...

ballroom is in.

Come on, now.

Ladies and gentlemen, ballroom has gone mainstream

and I am here for it.

All right, let's get this party

started. The category is:

Runway.

Bring it like old-school, black and white cinema.

Yes, girl. Work it out with that side step.

We see you, girl.

Yes.

I likey, likey, likey.

Work it out, work it out.

Honey, I see you.

Uh-huh. Work it out.

And what have we here?

Very Joan.

Very Crawford.

- Yes. - We need your help.

- What happened? - Just come. Come on.

♪ 'Cause there's music in the air ♪

♪ And lots of lovin' everywhere... ♪

I see you, boo.

Hey, tell them what you just told me.

I know I'm betraying Mother Elektra,

but this bitch has gone

- too far this time. - She put a hit out

- on Damon. - A hit? On his life?

No. His foot.

It's all going down tonight. We're supposed to make it

- look like an accident. - They talking about

it's for Candy, but we know it's just 'cause

- they want Ricky to win. - Hello, bitch?

Why am I here if you're telling the whole story?

- My bad. - She says,

- it's what Candy would do. - Man.

Hold on a minute. Did they bring her actual hammer?

- Yes. - Oh, hell no.

Elektra.

I'm not going to even ask you if it's true,

'cause I know it is.

Blanca, dear.

I can't imagine what you're talking about.

If anything happens to my child,

I will kill you.

I wasn't planning on hobbling him for life.

He's young, wounds heal.

There'll be other opportunities for him.

Don't you see this is not an opportunity for Damon or Ricky?

They're standing in for all of us.

You know, you may be seven feet tall,

hobnobbing with the glitterati,

but no one really sees you.

No one sees any of us.

Not until right now, this moment.

How are they gonna ignore any of us when one of our own

is out there dancing in front of thousands of people?

You know what?

You are one of us.

And the light that those boys are about to shine our way

is gonna light you up, too. So give me that

goddamn hammer and call off these dogs.

You ruin all my plans, mongrel.

Wintours.

The category is Fringe Fever.

I see you feeling fabulous

in all that fringe, Francine.

Looking don't cost nothing.

- Where you been? - You're mad cute.

- Mm-hmm. - I've been working doubles,

trying to pull my own weight, you know?

I feel you.

Work's been a good distraction for me, too.

Especially with... with all the Candy stuff.

Blanca told me Ford got you booked.

Mm-hmm.

I booked another Wet n Wild campaign.

- No. - And...

Ms. Ford got me an Essence cover try.

Yo. That's what's up.

I'll tell you what, when you book that cover,

we gonna take a rain check on that dinner.

Angel.

You look good, girl.

Bro, you got this, Papo.

Go out there and slay, you know?

All right.

All right, y'all ready for this next one?

Is this shit on? Y'all ready for this next one?

Yeah, all right. The category is:

Butch... Queen...

Vogue... Femme.

I'm-a need y'all to execute on it tonight.

You hear me?

I need to see it soft and dainty.

And... dramatic.

And severe.

Aw, bring it.

Yeah, baby. Ooh, I see you, bitch.

With that press and curl, you will sit by the stove tonight.

With that iron, baby, before you came out.

You going for that trophy tonight, you going for

that grand prize, baby.

Uh-huh. That swirl,

that swish, that swirl and...

Ah, oh, but Mr. Damon Evangelista

has something to say about that.

He says, "No, ma'am".

"Not tonight, you ain't

snatching my trophy from me tonight, honey.

Nuh-nuh, not, not tonight.

Oh, you can take that shit elsewhere,

you ain't snatching my trophy".

He said, "Ooh,

no, ma'am".

Yes, the mess around, bitch.

Hah! Oh! Hah!

Yes.

Oh!

Oh, yes.

What?

Ricky Wintour.

He's feeling very peevish.

He didn't come to play with you hoes tonight.

Oh, Spinderella.

I mean, we did the best we could.

Just because this didn't happen

don't mean that we won't have the other opportunities.

Eh, you sound like Blanca

when you're talking all positive and shit.

I let my house and Elektra down, end of story.

Okay, all right, listen to me.

This is bigger than you or me or Elektra.

I mean, letting the establishment

know that we created the mainstream.

They're gonna have to put respect on our names.

Yeah.

Oh, hey, I'm glad you're still here.

You ran out of there so quickly.

Oh, I'm-I'm sorry about that.

I just felt like I just let you down.

Oh, you win some, you lose some. That's showbiz.

What matters is you brought it.

- You were both so good. - You think so?

I do, which is why I-I wanted to tell you about another audition,

if you're interested.

- Of course we are. - What's it for?

You're never gonna believe it. They're rebooting Solid Gold.

- What's Solid Gold? - Ooh, what's Solid Gold?

Boy, it's just the best TV music countdown show ever!

Oh, my God. I'm gonna be a Solid Gold dancer?

- Well, you have to audition first. - Oh, my God.

Oh, okay.

Ah. Take care.

I'll see you.

Solid Gold is not a nothing property.

This show was the darling of syndicated television.

Discovered Arsenio Hall.

And one of the dancers went on to Hollywood.

Lucinda Dickey had a substantial role

in Ninja III: The Domination.

Oh, yeah, I think I saw that.

What I'm trying to say is,

this is an important project, but for some reason

I was able to buy the rights to reboot it on the cheap,

which means we're only shooting a pilot

and I can't pay more than scale.

So... how many dancers are you hiring?

The old show had ten. We're going with three.

We just have one demand.

You got to take both of us.

Oh, that is so silly.

You were on your leg, though, no shade.

- No, I tried. I... - You were just getting very...

- on your leg, okay? - Oh, God.

- No, I'm serious. - Thank you.

- That was so fun. - So good.

Well, I hope

we did enough in there to get this thing picked up.

Girl, I hope so, too. Yeah.

If anything, I'll see you cuties at the next cattle call.

- You sure will. - All right, all right.

- See you. - Nice to meet you.

You, too.

Look, I'm just gonna say it. We did that.

I mean...

What? Oh, my God. I'm so excited.

- Oh, my God. - I mean, can you believe it?

Two years ago, we was dancing in the balls,

and here we are now. Now.

Filming a real-life, full type TV show!

I didn't want to say nothing

'cause I don't like jinxing stuff,

but I got a feeling this reboot's gonna go

- and it's gonna be huge. - Mm-hmm.

I had the best time with you today.

I, uh...

I don't want it to end.

I had a good time, too.

But we need to keep this on the dance floor.

We are way too close,

way too close to making it,

for us to put our energy anywhere else.

Even true love?

Look, I messed up,

and I know you're scared,

but I've changed, D.

You made me a better person,

a better dancer.

I don't want nobody, just you.

We can start over.

Friends?

Yeah.

Friends.

Who knows? Maybe even stars of a big TV show.

Maybe.

See you.
