All language subtitles for S03E08 - Break Dance

This gang called the Enforcers, and
they're after Amatulo.

Mr. and Mrs. Schwartz cordially invite
you to the wedding of their daughter,

Doris, to Mr. Snake.

The Enforcers are moving past Blades and
Rumbles and killing people over a piece

of city block.

That's the way it's always been.

And no lightweight ballet dancer is
going to change it. Oh, yeah?

Yeah. Watch me try.

going. Dwight, I gotta get out of here.
I'm not a tardy slipper. Are you crazy,

man? I've been chased all the way from
the Bronx by some street gang.

All the way from the Bronx by a street
gang? That's not bad, Amatulo.

What, you think I'm lying?

Of course you're lying.

Okay, you got me.

I have to admit, it's one of the better
stories I've heard.

And a man in my position hears a million
of them.

Yo, Dwight, you gotta do me a favor. I
know it sounds silly, but you gotta say

something for me. You gotta say the
silhouettes rule.

Silhouettes? I know it doesn't make any
sense. You gotta humor me.

Come on, I am cooperating with you,
aren't I?

Silhouettes rule.

That's good. See, but this time you got
to put some feeling in it. Come on, belt

it. Throw it in the halls. Come on, do
me the favor.

Silhouettes rule.

Who are they?

Not the silhouettes, but those are the
enforcers.

Who are the silhouettes?

The enforcers are sworn enemies.

Come on, Dwight, let's go. Come on.

I can't leave my post.

Say something about the silhouettes,
man.

Silhouettes are fools.

Everybody around here knows that.

You're right, though. Was that Danny
Amatullo you were talking to?

Uh, it's a no, man.

I'm terrible with names, and there's so
many of these kids.

Take it out, man.

Don't lie to me.

Go on, man. This is Al. I'll find him.
See you around.

You need a ball tap.

What'd you say, man?

I didn't mean that.

Reflex. Lost my head.

Very close, man.

Don't play.

Bye.

Michael.

I want you to work this variation again,
and I want to see some sweat when I get

back to prove it. Is that clear?

Yes, Miss Grant. They'll get a workout,
and that's a promise. Okay.

I shall return.

Well, looks like I'm in command here.

And I want to see three rows of dancers
in front of me.

One, two, and three.

Now, when I call out your name, I want
you to take two steps forward, salute,

and boogie.

Dwight, slow down.

Dwight, you're hyperventilating. Now
calm down.

Amatulo, all the way from the Bronx.

How am I supposed to make any sense out
of that? Now, damn it, Dwight, relax.

That's an order. Mr.

Morlock, may I please?

Be my guest.

Dwight, sweetheart, try to calm down,
baby. Breathe, breathe.

Deep breath.

One more time.

Tell us what happened.

There's this gang called the Enforcers,
and they're after Amatulo.

That's really all I know.

They're here in the school?

Why do they want Amatulo?

I forgot to ask.

Sweetheart, where are they?

I don't know, but they shouldn't be too
hard to find.

All right, Dwight, let's go.

Go? With all due respect, sir, shouldn't
we call the police?

Dwight.

Miss Grant, you stay here.

This is a man's job.

Then you are going to need help.

Come here.

Look at this guy here. He's got a tights
on.

Hey!

Hey, baby, put that on!

Come in here and take a look at this
man.

Is that them?

Is that the ass?

I'm giving you punks to the count of ten
to vacate the premises.

Yeah, what are you going to do, man?

I'll call the police.

Check it out, man. We ain't looking for
no trouble.

But if he's what you want, he's what
you're going to get.

You see, it goes like this, man.

Takes ten minutes for the man to get
here, right? After you call him, it

us five minutes to trash this place and
be halfway home. So you see your

problem, right?

What do you want?

I want to talk with Danny Amatulo.

Why?

Believe it or not, he's an old
acquaintance of mine.

So if you could just tell me where to
find him.

Well, uh, he's not here. See, his mother
called. He's a little under the

weather.

Ah, man.

Looks like your weather just changed.

Hey, Tino.

Mr. Amatulo.

Need any help, Danny?

I don't know. Am I going to need any
help?

No problems, man.

Just want to talk to you.

So talk.

In private, man.

Just a minute. Hey, if he says no
trouble, it's no trouble.

Hey, don't pop.

When was the last time you took a bath?

Yeah, you know, I don't take nothing
unless I can pawn it.

I believe it.

Johnson, Ray.

Leroy.

Maybe.

Used to be one of the jesters.

Mm -hmm.

Then I grew up.

Oh, yeah?

You know what? I'll work on it, man.
Sounds like a good idea.

Yeah? Yeah.

All right. So let me know. You got it.
All right.

Let's go.

Check you later, old man.

Bye, Leroy.

Excuse me, Papa.

Huh? Hot and fresh.

Yo,

Tino.

Where do I find you?

You don't, man.

I find you.

Am I too low?

You wouldn't believe it if I told you.

Try me.

All the enforcers are looking for is a
choreographer.

So what do they need a choreographer
for?

Because they're heavily into breakdance.
So what?

So what? They're supposed to have a
fight with the silhouettes.

What else is new?

What's new is that they're not going to
fight. They're going to breakdance

instead. See, there's this kind of
organized competition that the enforcers

the silhouettes agree to. The winner of
the competition wins the turf.

Well, it's a lot better than zip guns
and switchblades. It's a lot better.

But the problem is that the enforcers
need someone to coach them.

I hate to tell you, Danny, but you're
not a dance major.

That's why I hereby volunteer to buy
lunch for Leroy for two weeks if you

me out.

Save your money and save your breath.

Yo, three weeks.

Six months.

Forget it, Danny. It took me too long to
pull away from all that stuff.

I don't want to have nothing to do with
it, period.

Hey, yo, you know those guys don't like
to be turned down.

Hey, come on, Leroy, please help me.

Look, you got the wrong man. I'm
retired.

Thanks.

Come on, Schwartz. I need a salesman.

Salesperson, and it's going to cost you.

Tell me something I don't know.

You did the right thing.

Don't I know it?

Look, I need you to help me do the right
thing.

Now, would you want advice on whether or
not to join a gang?

No.

I want advice on whether or not I should
join the road company of pirates.

It leaves town at the end of next week.

Leaves for how long?

For about a year.

But, Leroy, it's a real offer, man.

I got the part if I want it.

And? And you know I want it.

How do you do?

Please let me by.

What's the matter, cutie? Don't you find
us attractive?

What's the matter, huh?

Ain't good enough for you or what? Hey,
monkey breath, get away from me. You

too, stretch.

You better leave her alone or you're
going to be walking real funny.

Don't try and follow us.

Come on.

Daniel, Daniel.

Yeah? I definitely think I'm in love.

Oh, man.

Trust me, man. Cutie ain't worth it. I
ain't talking about cutie, man. I'm

talking about the tough one.

I mean, she's bad, man. She's bad.

What's up?

You're looking at a very terrified
person, man. You can't.

No. You're laughing and I'm flirting
with major bodily damage.

Look, I'm sorry, Danny.

But I can't believe you couldn't find
anybody.

Well, all the people who volunteered
weren't good enough. And all the people

were good enough, well, they didn't want
to get involved.

What about Donald?

You ask him?

Mm -hmm.

Donald's coaching another gang.

It's silhouette.

It's silhouette?

Are you serious?

Hey, yo, man.

You know what they say? They say he's
the best.

He's like a legend.

Donald? He ain't no legend, man. Hey,
man, don't yell at me. I ain't no

The dude's just got a good rep.

Oh, yeah?

Well, I think it's about time somebody
gave his rep a little competition.

That mean you'll do it?

Me coach one gang and Donald the other?

That's right.

Yeah, you got it, man. I'll be there.

All right.

Hey,

back off, bird beak, or I'm going to
rearrange your mug.

You know, I'm not trying to ask you or
nothing.

What are you trying to do?

What's with the stupid smile? You want
to let me in on the joke?

I get off on the way you stand up to me,
you know?

My grandma would say you got spunk.

You know what spunk is?

Yeah, I know what spunk is.

Most girls are scared of me, but...

You got guts, you know, real guts.

I like that.

You'll never know how good that makes me
feel. Now I have to get to class.

Wait a minute.

I mean, I don't even know your name.
What's your name?

Octavia.

Octavia.

I'm Snake.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Snake. Now I
really have to go. I was thinking, you

maybe you and me, we could go on a date
or something, you know.

Maybe, you know, Chinese food or
something, you know. Oh, no, I don't

Are you turning me down?

No, no, no, I'm not.

No, really, I just like time to think,
you know, okay?

All right.

I'll see you at the school, Ma, all
right?

Be nice to have something to look
forward to.

Hey, take it easy, Octavia, all right,
huh?

What's it like, really?

Hanging speakers?

Not that exciting. I don't mean hanging
speakers.

Man, what's it like being out of school?

I mean, being in the real world.

Do you miss having a place like this to
come to every day?

You know what I mean, man. What's it
like?

It's a little scary.

But scary can be exciting, too.

Yeah?

So, I gotta go, but I want to talk to
you about this more, Bruno, so take your

time finishing up.

I need to have you around.

Hey, Mr. Baca.

Go, go.

Hey, kid.

You back in school?

Sort of. Mr. Swarovski hired me to
install the new sound equipment.

You're putting in the new stuff?

Yeah. Is that all right with you?

Yeah, yeah, sure.

Is everything all right?

You think Mr. Shirovsky gave you the
job?

Uh -huh.

Well, then, everything must be Jake.

Hey, look, I don't know about you, but
I've got work to do.

Hey!

So what I'm saying to you people is very
simple.

Don't mess up.

Now, the competition has been set for
Friday the 25th.

You guys can use the center for
rehearsals.

Enforcers from 4 to 5.

Silhouettes from 5 to 6. And no
exceptions.

And if anybody takes one step out of
line,

Salios Mujachos.

Does everybody comprehend?

All right, now, disappear.

Hey, peacefully.

Keep going.

Where are the coaches, please?

Here, here.

Christophe, good to meet you.

Angel, Roger.

Hey,

Mr. Michael.

Except no substitute.

Well, I just wanted to thank you guys
for helping out.

Thank us?

Looks like a lot of people ought to be
thanking you. That's the truth. I mean,

how did you get involved with this stuff
anyway?

The hard way.

I lost two brothers to gangs.

And after a while, putting flowers on
their graves, it wasn't enough anymore.

Well, I think you're doing a great
thing.

I figure if I can keep these guys from
hurting each other, then it's worth it.

Because you can't beat them.

And you're a fool if you join them.

But you can try to change them.

Anyway, thanks for helping out.

I guess my only advice would be to go
easy.

You know?

Remember, you're dealing with a lot of
quick tempers that explode at the drop

a hat.

And that's exactly what we're trying to
avoid with all this.

You hired Bruno Martelli to install the
sound system.

Yes, Mr. Trump. But that's a job for a
union man.

Larry, I'm sorry. I had no idea I was
doing anything wrong. I knew Bruno

the work and that he was qualified for
the job. But he's non -union.

But he needs the money.

Mr. Sharofsky, a week ago I turned down
a two -week job that would have given me

extra money.

Do you know why I turned that job down?

Because it was non -union.

I'm sorry.

If I ain't been in the rules for myself,
I sure ain't been in them for Bruno

Martelli.

So, what do you expect me to do?

I expect you to fire him.

Well, I won't do that.

Then I'll have to report the violation.

You do what you have to do.

Now, if you'll excuse me, this is my
classroom. I have plenty of paperwork to

catch up on.

Bye.

Okay.

Look at what I've been taped to my
locker.

What is it?

It's a totally illiterate love letter
from a Neanderthal who calls himself

Snake. His name's Francis.

Would you change your name if your name
was Francis?

Of course, but I wouldn't change it to
Snake.

Point.

This was also inside the envelope.

I'm not sure, but I think that's a
tooth.

A human tooth.

Yeah, it's Snake's. He got it knocked
out during a fight.

Oh, it's Snake's. In that case, we know
it's not a human tooth. That's

disgusting. To you. To Snake, man,
that's real important.

He's been wearing that thing around his
neck for years.

Why doesn't he put it under his pillow
like any civilized six -year -old?

Look, I don't care about the tooth.
Danny, I want you to get this subhuman

leave me alone.

Yeah, I'd have to have ravioli for
brains to tell Snake what to do.

Doris, the guy is not normal.

I don't want him mad at me.

Daniel Amatulo, I can't believe you.

Doris? needs your help and you're
sitting here acting like a coward.

No acting involved.

And when it comes to people like Nate, I
am a coward.

No, no, no, Tino, man.

Look, you got all the right moves, but
if you want to win this thing, you got

make it clean, man. You got to polish
it.

Man, give me some music.

Turn it off.

Let me tell you something.

You can already do most of the moves
better than me, but you just can't wing

You just can't fake it. I used to think
I could get away with doing stuff like

that, but it just don't work.

How come if I can do moves that you
don't know how to do, how come you're

coach? Because I can teach you the most
important thing. I can teach you how to

work. Well, I ain't going to work until
they leave.

Hey, come on, guys. Let's press. We got
the gym at 5 o 'clock.

Let them work up. You know they're going
to need it.

We're staying.

Maybe we'll learn something, like what
not to do.

Hey, man, you better listen to your
trainer dog, man.

Because me and my partner's got to
squeeze your fat head out the door. You

it's going to get messy.

Donovan, would you get your people out
of here?

Hey, I'm trying, man.

Why don't you put a muzzle on Motor
Mouth over there?

So, Tino, let's get back to work, all
right? Don't pay them any mind.

Look, man, stay out of this, all right?
Stick to ballet dancing and leave the

stuff to me, all right? Tino.

Look, man, stay out of it, ballerina.

I'll be the first to say it, man. I
messed up.

I should have never hustled you and got
you involved with those animals.

I thought you said he volunteered.

He did, but I was definitely pushing.

You know, the way I figure it, they
asked for a choreographer. They got a

choreographer. They can't hold on to
him, so... I'm a tumor. No, sit still,

Hey, I got you into this mess, and I'm
gonna get you out. I don't want out.

What do you mean you don't want out? I
mean that the enforcers still got

themselves a coach.

Me. Even after what they did?

Especially after what they did.

Do I look confused?

Very. On account of I am.

You people don't understand.

I threw the first punch.

But don't get me wrong, that dude Tino
was out of line, way out of line.

But it was up to me what to throw back
at him.

And I threw this.

I heard you had every right to.

Maybe, maybe not.

But what this whole thing's about is
trying to find different ways of

stuff. Even when it gets low down.

You know, I can't figure out whether
you're some kind of hero.

A complete fool.

Well, I ain't no fool.

Not completely at any rate.

He's a fool.

You know,

like, you really hate me, don't you?

No, Francis.

Snake. I don't hate you.

You sure don't like me.

I never even done anything bad or weird
to you or nothing.

Look, with you and me, it's not a
question of like or dislike.

It's just that we're completely
incompatible.

You know, is that good or bad?

No, it just means that we're two very
different people and we don't have

anything in common.

We're both tough.

Yeah, but you can't build a relationship
on tough.

Look, we're from two different worlds.
We're like the star -crossed lovers in

West Side Story.

I saw that movie.

I don't remember too much about no
lovers, but I remember there was the

the Sharks, you know.

Snake, it's not important.

What's important is that you and I
cannot go out together.

It would be totally disastrous for both
of us.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Yeah.

You really don't like me.

I mean, you even lied about your name.

It's not Octavia. It's like Doris. Okay,
look.

Octavia is my middle name.

Doris is my Christian name. Hey,
Schwartz.

Oh, sorry, I didn't know you had
company.

Schwartz. It's my Jewish name. I had a
very strange childhood.

Oh, but mine was even stranger.

Yeah, I would probably agree on that.

See, right there. I mean, that's
something we could talk about, you know?

on.

Look, agreed.

But now I have to go to class.

Doris, I want you to know, I'm not going
to give up, okay?

Because then I know you'll lose respect
for me.

Yeah, and we wouldn't want that to
happen, would we?

Hi, kid.

Hi, Louie. How you doing?

Fair.

I guess Mr. Shirovsky didn't tell you,
huh?

Tell me why.

You can't do this job.

In fact, you shouldn't have been hired
in the first place.

Why not?

Because you're not a member of the
union.

This is a union job?

I'm afraid so.

Look, I don't know if your Mr. Shirovsky
knows anything about unions, but if he

does, he's definitely got a blind spot
when it comes to you, kid.

Don't worry. I'll explain.

You realize you're raising yourself up
enough.

Look, a kid couldn't grow up in my
household without hearing about the

My pop, my uncles, my aunts, all of
them, union people.

I know all about it.

What were you going to do with the extra
bucks?

I'm just a modification for a
synthesizer. It wouldn't mean much to

But it means a lot to you.

Yeah, it did.

And he keeps following you around and he
will not leave you alone. So what does

he do when you keep telling him that
you're not interested?

He just smiles.

That's it?

No, sometimes he drools a little. How
charming.

You know, the more I tell him I'm not
interested, the more interested he gets.

So what are you going to do?

Ask a friend for help.

Help!

Um, well, you could always try a
reverse.

What's the reverse?

Instead of being so negative, come on to
him like gangbusters. I bet it'll turn

him right off. Oh, no, you don't
understand.

I don't think I can do that with Snake.
When I look at him, my stomach turns

into acid rain.

Doris, you've got to look at it as an
acting exercise.

Play the role of a woman who is
genuinely interested in me.

If you believe it, you'll be convincing.

What if it backfires?

Mr. and Mrs. Schwartz cordially invite
you to the wedding of their daughter

Doris to Mr. Snake.

Do people ask names? I don't know.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight. Two, two, three, four, five,

six, seven, eight. Three, two, three,
four, five, six, seven.

See ya.

That's right. That's right. Keep going.

Why'd you do that?

Rehearsal's over.

Maybe for you.

If it's over for me, it's over for the
enforcers.

Obviously, you didn't take a very good
look at what was going down.

All right.

Got some business to take care of, and I
need some backup.

Are you with me?

No. Not me.

I think you got your answer.

All right, I'm calling this dance thing
off with a silhouette.

Because this is not the way we do
business.

Am I right?

Man, give it up.

Don't push, man.

Now, I'm turning and walking away.

And any of you who call yourself an
enforcer better be right behind me.

You pay for this, man.

I thought you said you had some business
to take care of.

Count on it.

Man, somebody punch up the music, man.

Take it from the top.

Let's go.

It's Jurassic.

The sound equipment's been stolen.

I heard.

Everyone has.

I'm sorry.

Me too.

Are you in trouble?

Michael said he's working on it.

This is an equity contract.

Are you leaving?

What are you going to do about
graduating?

I can take the equivalency test.

Wow.

Have you told anyone about this?

No.

I'm not going to.

Look, Monday I'll be gone.

And Tuesday there'll be letters to the
people that matter. You know, telling

them why.

Telling them I love them.

You know, telling them the things that
are important.

So why are you telling me this now? Why
don't you send me a letter?

Because you and me are not people for
letters.

We're people for songs.

I had it this time I thought the dream

would be mine Hoping to fly,

I thought Oh, how I wish I just

didn't care at all Cause when you

don't care

It won't hurt if you don't cry.

But I still believe in all my dreams

and all that I can be.

I'll learn from mistakes and all that it
takes to

make.

To help me get through this part

And I swear I'll never rest

Until I am standing up there with the
very

best Oh, but beg no heart that

won't rest

Sometimes it's all a day.

But I still believe in all my dreams

and all that I can be.

I'll learn from mistakes and all that it
takes

to make.

Growing up teaches you a lot about
goodbyes.

I'm not sure I approve.

Where's what?

The sound equipment.

You saying I stole your sound equipment?

How'd you know it was stolen?

Mm -hmm.

Pretty good, man.

But I told you you were going to have to
pay.

But you didn't believe me, did you?

And I told you the enforcers were going
to move on without you.

And you didn't believe me, did you?

Man, don't tell me about the enforcers,
because you don't know.

You turn my partners against me? What is
that?

What this is is a little game we're
going to play.

Let's see if I can tell what you're
thinking.

Okay?

Let's see.

Right now you're thinking, these guys
think they've got me.

But I've got an ace up my sleeve.

I've got the sound equipment.

I've got it all stashed away at Stacy's
billions.

How am I doing so far?

Now you're thinking, uh -oh.

They know that's where I hid it. And
that means they've already got it.

And there goes my aid.

And if that's what you're thinking,
Tino, you're right.

Oh, but don't worry, man.

We're not going to turn you in.

We're going to turn you out.

What's that supposed to mean? That means
the enforcers are moving past blades

and rumbles and killing people over a
piece of city block.

That's the way it's always been.

And no lightweight ballet dancer is
going to change it. Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Watch me try it.

Nate!

Oh, I'm so glad you came.

Yeah? You know, like when I'm a tool,
you told me you wanted to see me. I

figured you was pulling me on or
something.

Oh, I'm sorry you got the wrong
impression of me the other day.

I acted like a shrew, and I just hate
myself.

Okay.

Don't act like that.

I don't know what the shrew thing is,
but I know it in you.

Well, I'm so glad you're not mad,
because I want us to be really good

You know, like, are you sick or
something, Doris?

Snake!

We'd be good together.

I could expand our horizons.

Doris, I don't even know what you're
talking about. What horizons? I ain't

any horizons.

You will. You will, Snake. I'll make
sure you do.

What's with you, huh?

Where's the old Doris, the little tough
chick that I craved, huh?

Well, that was just an act to cover up
how scared I was of you.

Don't do that.

It was a test, and you passed.

Is that my toot you got on?

Yes, I always keep it close to my heart.

Come on, listen, I want to get it back,
all right?

Snake, no!

Doris, come on, this is not going to
work out between you and me, you know?

Look, I don't want it to you anymore.

Nick, please.

Give me another chance. Come on, man.
Don't beg like that. Oh, I hate it when

you beg like that. Okay, I won't beg.

Come on, don't do that either, all
right? Just give me my tooth back, all

Snake. Come on, give me my tooth back.

Come on.

Snake!

I want to have your baby.

Oh, man, you're crazy.

And for Best Supporting Actress, the
winner is Doris Schwartz in her role of

Octavia.

Who's that?

It's Bruno Martelli. Just came by to see
how Unionite does the job. Very

impressive. Piece of cake.

I tell you, whoever installed those
speaker frames knew what he was doing

Obviously. Listen, Bruno, I wonder if
you could do me a small favor.

Sure what? I got a call for a job today.
No big thing. Some decent box, couple

of days work.

Thing is, I got this problem with it.

Let me guess.

It's non -union?

How'd you guess?

Well seeing as I'm in the union and all
I figured maybe you could help me out

Thanks, thanks a lot

Break it. Break it down.

Break it. Break it down.

I'm sure it was fine. If they had had
any problems, we would have heard about

by now.

Yeah, I'm sure.

Well, good night.

Good night.

Hernandez?

How'd you get in here?

Um, Mr. Koenig let me in. He's one of
the janitors.

Yeah, I know who he is, but why'd he let
you in here at this hour?

So I can get my stuff.

I gotta go on a trip.

Fernandes!

Where's this trip taking you?

To the stars, man.

To the stars.
