SEB: Previously on High School Musical:
The Musical: The Series...

Everyone spent time
with someone special over spring break.

-Well...
-Well, thanks.

While Gina was busy taking flight,
some people were trying to make harmony.

I love what you did on the verse.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

But while I helped bring
a new baby cow into the world,

Carlos was in a world of his own.

I know, I know,
I'm crying over spilled milk.

No, seriously,
I spilled so much milk in the barn.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

All right, let's get started!

(INAUDIBLE CONVERSATION)

Hello? Let's get started!

Okay, Wildcats.

Let's shake spring break
out of our systems

and try the Beast transformation
one last time.

And remember,
this is the triumph of the show,

the moment the audience
has been waiting for.

This has to work. (CHUCKLES)

-No pressure, right?
-(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)

Ricky, try not to rush this time.

We'll speed it up
when you're more confident.

-Got it.
-Let's take it from...

"You came back."

We'll be fine.

We still have two weeks
until opening night.

That's a few days away from three weeks,
basically a month.

And two weeks after that,
we are at the Alan Menken Awards,

and then we'll see who's number one.

It's your basic two-three-two-one.

And we're great, is the point.

Okay, go ahead.

(RICKY CLEARS THROAT)

You came back.

If only I'd come sooner.

-Maybe it's better this way...
-Don't talk like that.

-Everything will be fine.
-No.

(ASHLYN SHUSHING)

ASHLYN: We're together now. You'll see.

I'm just glad
I was able to see your face one last...

(CHOKING)

(PIANO MUSIC PLAYING)

(SINGING) We are home

We are where we shall be forever

Trust in me

For you know I won't run away

Belle, I...

Yes?

No, no, please don't leave me. Please.

(SHAKILY) I love you.

(GRUNTING)

RICKY: (MUFFLED GRUNTING) Come on.

Come on!

-It's stuck.
-Rip the Velcro!

-Okay. Okay.
-I got it. (GRUNTS)

(ALL GASPING)

(SHRIEKS)

(COUGHS)

Cut!

-Sorry, Natalie.
-NATALIE: It's okay.

It was just my face.

Guess I should practice that throw, huh?

The throw is great, Ricky.

The mask is great.

This is working.

I will be in my office.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

Guys, we're on a long five
until Miss Jenn returns.

ASHLYN: Hey.

You okay?

Yeah, I'll get it eventually.

You, uh, kinda went dark there
for a little while over spring break.

Yeah, my phone was off.

That's half of what I meant.

(SIGHS) Breakups just suck, you know?

Especially when it's with
the same person over and over again.

But I'm glad you reached out
to Nini about writing that song.

-That was really nice.
-Oh, no, no.

She reached out to me.

She was the one actually driving
the whole thing. It was super fun.

Well, that, uh, I mean, that is... super.

Knock-knock. Are you okay?

It's time to face the music, Carlos.

What music?

A source close to the administration has
told me that North High has acquired

the actual technical set design specs
from the original Broadway production.

-(GASPS)
-I'm terrible at math, but I've done it.

Even if all our leads
get a ten on performance...

Which they will.

Our low-tech Beast transformation
is not going to cut it.

There's no way we'll win best overall

without at least an eight
on technical achievement.

North High would have to get
sevens across the board.

Which they won't.

I don't want you kids to be disappointed.

High School Musical was wonderful.

-But it was not exactly...
-A smooth opening night.

I think I may have been playing Troy
at one point.

Look, our full tech rehearsal is tomorrow.

We'll just practice
until we're Broadway-perfect.

Of course we will, honey.

And while we're doing that,
I will practice my gracious face

for when Zackey and his gang of villains
hoist that Menkie Award up high.

Is this working?

I have notes.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

NINI: But what can we do?

-There you are.
-GINA: We all got your text.

You guys, Mother is freaking out.

It's about the Menkies.
Is everyone sitting down?

No.

We can't win.

-What?
-Why?

CARLOS: Listen, there's math involved.

If we don't sweep
the technical achievement awards,

we don't have a chance.

And, no offense, Ricky, but...

Oh, is this about the transformation?

I can throw that mask
at someone other than Natalie.

You haven't yet.

I hate to say this, you guys.

-We all had a good time over spring break.
-Some of us a little more than others.

Not today.

-You guys okay?
-Mmm-hmm.

Honestly,
we need to rally behind Miss Jenn.

I mean, our sets are made
of plywood and Elmer's Glue.

We're humble. Humble does not win awards.

And after that order, you have one more,
and then two more after that.

Fresh soda. Y'all okay?

Carlos was just explaining...

I heard it all.

While you were yelling at Howie?

Multitasking.

Look, I'm a designer,
Big Red's a crew guy,

between the two of us,
you're looking at your answer.

Quit school, get a job at the pizza shop?

Uh, no, we should invent
something amazing.

Something we can run
at tech rehearsal tomorrow night.

A next-level transformation

that out-broads Broadway
and out-norths North High.

-(SQUEALS)
-(INDISTINCT CONVERSATION)

-Wouldn't that be amazing?
-Ashlyn, you have the biggest house.

What if I invite myself and the girls over
after school, continue the collab thing?

ASHLYN: Ooh!

I mean, square footage-wise,
my house is slightly larger...

Uh, I'm going to shut up.

A hundred percent, yes.

Wait, should we all stick together?

Oh, no way.

-Boys versus girls.
-(GASPS)

My basement's free.
We have a ton of old tools.

The guys can make something cool.

Great.

May the best transformation win.

(LAUGHING)

East High literally defined
what a high school musical even means.

So, yeah, I'm not worried.
But North High should be.

(KNUCKLES CRACKING)

Come on down.

The water is lukewarm
and slightly terrified.

What's all this?

I laid out every tool I own.
You never know what you're going to need.

Is this a first-generation iPod charger?

Time is of the essence right now,
and I don't need the back talk.

Okay.

Sorry, I get bossy around the power tools.

(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)

One sec. Hello.

Hi, Ricky. Sorry to pop in like this.

-Lily. How did you get my number?
-Friend of a friend.

I just need some advice.

Is this too weird?
Should I not have called you?

Uh, no. Uh, I don't know. What's up?

I'm struggling.

And I know we have something in common.

I literally can't think of anything.

We're the stars of our respective shows.

Oh, okay.

And you're just so good
at being a leading man.

You think so?

Everyone was so happy
when you got the Beast.

You were so supportive
of that boy at the auditions.

The one who couldn't stand upright?

RICKY: Uh...

Yeah, I vaguely remember him.

LILY: You're a natural leader, Ricky.

I wasn't raised like you.

My mom always says,

if I'm not adding followers,
I'm not adding value.

Oh, that sounds hard.

I'm just not well-liked here,
and I don't know what to do.

Have you tried the golden rule?

Think about how you want to be treated,
and then do that.

Oh, of course. (CHUCKLES)

You're a good soul.

Hug emoji, okay?

I got it.

-Was that...
-Super weird? Yes, yes, it was.

-Wassup?
-Oh, wow! Is this decorative?

Don't start with me, Carlos.

He gets weird around tools.

Wait, you guys, I just realized,

I haven't been here
since we got together to save Miss Jenn.

Wow, déjà vu, maybe.

Hey, wait, where's Seb?

Don't ask.

You guys, what are we making?

(DRILL WHIRRS)

Okay. I'm going to take that from you.

-One hundred percent real faux fur.
-Ooh!

Thirty yards.

Must've been a truly enormous
faux animal. (CHUCKLES)

So, what are we doing?

You know those sequined tops,

where rubbed one way, they're purple,
rubbed the other way, red?

Duh, love it.

So, we're going to do that
with the Beast cape.

But instead of purple and red,
it's going to be fur and satin.

Y'all feel me?

-Kourt, you are a visionary.
-Oh, thank you.

The boys can build something

that spins the Beast around
to disguise the transition.

-Wow. Won't that take a while?
-I'm in, if you are.

I guess I could sleep over tonight.

(LAUGHTER)

I'm all about costumes,

but don't know if my parents will be cool
with a co-ed sleepover.

Chip, this is your mother speaking.
Go call your mother.

Behold my scissors bucket.

GINA AND NINI: Wow.
ASHLYN: Yeah, guys.

-(CHUCKLES) Oh!
-Hey!

We're thinking of adding
an off-menu vegan sausage option.

Is that a thing?

It is basically crackers.

You guys, what are we making?

-(CELL PHONE CHIMES)
-Oh, a text from Ash.

They want us to construct something
to slowly spin Ricky around on,

so that we can change the fabric
on his cape while he spins.

That sounds promising.

What do I have that spins?

Wait, there's a bunch of these back here,
we could use, maybe...

Oh!

My retired skateboards.

I mean, if it's to help
Miss Jenn finally win her award.

I'm wrapping my head around it.

Emotionally.

That could take all night.

I could do that. Stay all night.

Carlos?

Yeah, I need to talk to Seb
at some point, but it can wait.

Are you sure?

It's waited all week.
Let's spin Ricky around for a few hours.

(MAZZARA SIGHS)

Benjamin! You're still at school.

Actually, I was halfway home
when I got your text.

What's the emergency?

I'm worried about my children.

How many children do you have?

She means us.
I can't speak to the other question.

MISS JENN: We just found out that
North High has the technical plans

for the actual Broadway production
of our show.

And you think they're going
to injure you with them?

Worse. I think they're going
to sweep at the Menkies,

crush my kids' spirits,
and then where will they be?

Not for nothing,
but why are you asking me this question?

Doesn't your robotics team
lose all the time? No offense.

Actually, we placed second in the state,
fourth at the regional,

and one-zero-one-zero-one
at the National Coding Invitational.

That's binary.

I'm sorry, I stopped
paying attention on purpose.

How can I cushion them from this fall?

Well, I can tell you that my students

seem to survive every setback
that comes their way.

My students aren't like yours.
They're like me!

Are you sure?

Ooh, this is going to be so good,

-Carlos would wear it.
-(ALL CHUCKLE)

Does he just walk around
in Armani sweatpants?

(ALL CHUCKLE)

I guess.

Uh, Sebbie?

Is something going on with you guys?

I guess you could say,

he met a group of extremely photogenic
guys when he was down in Mexico,

and he seems pretty happy.
So, now I'm pretty sad.

Seb, come on.

You want to see him happy.
That's with you.

Mmm, but I guess he has to be,
out of default, right?

What does that mean?

There's not a lot of other choices
for a boy like Carlos here at East.

No, Seb.

Have you told him how you feel?

Not so good at saying
the feelings part out loud.

Never hurts to put yourself out there.

-Or so I've heard.
-(CHUCKLES)

Okay. Also, did I see
you and EJ giggling at the pizza place?

I have some questions
in the same general area.

(CHUCKLES) Are they
disapproving questions?

(SIGHS) Gina, you're my sister.
He's my cousin.

And if that didn't sound so weird,

-you would know what I'm trying to say.
-(LAUGHTER)

I love you both.

He was really sweet over the break,
and he kind of saved me.

But it was just a nice thing.

There's nothing romantic
in the cards for us.

Uh, you sure?

Trust me. I've been wrong before,

so I feel pretty safe
putting that idea to bed.

Oh, my God. The chocolates.

(LAUGHTER)

What are the chocolates?

Oh, um...

I... (CHUCKLES)

I thought Ricky sent me
some chocolates on Valentine's Day,

and I kind of melted a little,
as a friend.

But he didn't send me chocolates.
It was my mom.

(CHUCKLES)

Uh...

Why'd I never hear about this?

It wasn't a big deal.

It was funny.
We laughed and laughed. (CHUCKLES)

(CHUCKLING)

Oh.

-I think we should move on.
-I'm going to get a root beer.

All right, everybody rotate clockwise.

Your other clockwise.

I just don't understand what happened.
Seb doesn't seem like the jealous type.

What does he seem like?

I don't know. The farmer type.

He's worried you're dating him

because he's the only other boy at school
that watches Drag Race Canada.

Wow. That's specific.

Yeah, Ashlyn texted me.
I have a spy on the inside.

(SIGHS) Okay. Wow.

Why wouldn't he just say something to me?

People are complicated, man.

Nobody has it together
as much as they seem.

And some of us even less than that.

Oh, okay, pretty boy, just because you're
single for the first time in your life.

When he isn't making eyes
at my co-choreographer.

Wait, Gina?

It's not a thing, you guys. Okay?

Yes, she is the best,
but we're buddies, it's cool.

And counterclockwise, like 15 minutes.

You're buddies? It's cool?

I'm just not looking
to put myself out there right this second.

-Is it because you're graduating?
-Or because Gina lives with Ash?

It's because of Nini, actually.

Oh.

No, don't worry. I don't have
feelings for Nini anymore.

I just also don't have the need
to get rejected again.

Sweet boy.

You know, the only thing I'm really proud
of in my time with Nini was...

(SIGHS) ...letting her go.

CARLOS: Okay. But does that mean
you're going to let the next girl go

-without even trying?
-(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Hello? Hey, Kourt.

You did?

You did?

No, uh, we're doing great here.
Semi-great. Verging on failure.

Okay, deal. See you there.

Kourtney got the original
Broadway plans from Howie.

We're going to beat them
at their own game.

Wait. Howie-Howie?
I thought that they weren't a thing now?

She didn't say. The girls want us
to meet them at the stage door in an hour.

Pack up the lazy Ricky thing.
We're going to save our show.

I don't want to suggest that you are
vicariously fighting your own battles

through your students, but...

(GASPS) Oh, boy.

Yeah, that hits home.

And how are you so wise?

The first time
my students won a robotics award,

I called my dad in tears to tell him.

I'm an adult man.

You're not the only one
with demons to exorcise.

I've pushed them too hard.

(INHALES DEEPLY)
And I've taken up too much of your time.

It's not too late to fix all of that.

Thank you, Benjamin, truly.

Teacher power, right?

Indeed.

(SINGING) I love you so much
that I've gotta let you go

(CONTINUES PLAYING GUITAR)

Hey, I got your text.

The boys packed up
and headed to school. What's up?

Ricky?

I had this song
I was going to play for Nini.

I wrote it over spring break.

It was like a last-ditch goodbye,
or Hail Mary, or apology, or something.

Ugh, you guys are a Hallmark movie.

(CHUCKLING) Okay. Don't knock it.
Sometimes a song can mean everything.

Okay.

So, about your text?

Uh, I don't think Nini needs
to hear that song.

I'm not going to put her through that.

But?

But...

Uh... The look on your face
when you were talking about Seb...

It's been a long time
since Nini looked at me like that.

It's been a long time since
I deserved it. Don't get me wrong.

I think you and Seb have something
worth fighting for, bro.

Sorry. I'm adjusting
to being called "bro."

(CHUCKLES)

Seb and I get so awkward
when we talk about our feelings.

We can passionately dissect
Twitter feuds between pop stars.

But when it comes to talking about us,

we both get a little tongue-tied.

What if you didn't have to say
how you were feeling?

What do you mean?

Uh...

Can you hit a high C?

That's the bottom of my range. Why?

Take a seat.

Let's write a song.

What?

Yeah. Let's try it.

Come on. Just like a...

Okay.

These two are for the pizza shop.
This one's for the front door of my house.

This one's for my bike lock.
Oh! I haven't seen this one in a while.

You do have the key, right, babe?

I narrowed it down
to this half of the chain.

You could've just knocked.

Okay. (CHUCKLES)

Wait. So, in the Broadway show,

all they did was suspend the Beast
in the air,

and then he takes the mask off.

Wow.

Looks like today's theme
is secrets. (CHUCKLES)

But combine this with the wire from
Get'cha Head in the Game, we're golden.

-Do we still have Ricky's harness?
-Ooh, it's in the costume shop, somewhere.

Everyone, let's meet back in 15.

ALL: Thank you, 15.

SEB: So...

So, this came from Howie?

Good luck getting a comment out of her.
I've been trying for an hour.

Okay. The comment is,
he's finally figured out my love language.

-Ooh!
-(GASPS)

BIG RED: Which is?

Uh, gifts, music, flattery, and begging.

(LAUGHTER)

-CARLOS: Hi.
-Hi.

Can I steal you for a minute?

I'm really nervous.
Please say yes before I change my mind.

Yes.

Hey, G. How's the slumber party going?

It's fun.

-Cool.
-Yep.

I should...

see if Big Red needs help with the ladder.

Do you want to get risotto
with me sometime?

For real this time.

Did Ashlyn put you up to this?

Not that I know of. (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Yeah. Yeah, risotto sounds great.

-Okay.
-(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)

Am I in trouble?

Just listen.

I mean every word of this,

even the ones Ricky wrote.

(GUITAR STRUMMING)

(SINGING)
I scream at the top of my lungs

You keep it all bottled up

-We're different that way
-Different that way

-But please don't ever change
-Don't ever change

It might feel like it's only us

Lookin' for our kinda love
And maybe that's true

But I'm so glad that it's you

I wish you knew that you're fantastic

I'll be right here whatever happens

When all's said and done
You'll always be the one

That I keep coming back to

In a heartbeat, I'd choose you

Hope you know
You'll never dance alone

So don't you worry
Don't need to

In a heartbeat, I'd choose you

You make me feel like myself

Why would I go anywhere else?

-How crazy I am
-Crazy I am

-Somehow you understand
-You understand

Yeah
You're the sweetest guy I've ever met

I'm as lucky as lucky can get
Too good to be true

Knowing somebody like you

I wish you knew that you're fantastic

But I don't have to tell you
This is magic

Oh

In a heartbeat, in a heartbeat
I'd choose you

Oh

Don't you worry, you can trust me
I won't lose you

The future we can't control

But all I know is everything that I need

I have with the boy who chose me

When all's said and done

You'll always be the one

That I keep coming back to
In a heartbeat, I'd choose you

Hope you know
You'll never dance alone

So don't you worry
Don't need to

In a heartbeat, I'd choose you

You

You

I'd choose you
In a heartbeat

BIG RED: You guys good?

Yeah.

Well, come on.
We have a Beast to transform.

Thank you...

-bro.
-(CHUCKLES)

(SIGHS)

I, I, I...

Please, I love you.

(CHOKING)

Now.

(EXCLAIMS)

Y'all, this is some Broadway stuff.

We're going to win.
You guys, we're actually going to win.

We're going to make Miss Jenn so proud.

(SQUEALS)

(GASPS)

RICKY: Uh-oh. (SCREAMS)

-(EXCLAIMS)
-(RICKY GRUNTS)

(RICKY GROANS)

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
