All language subtitles for Platinum.The.Dance.Movie.2014

(skateboard scraping)

(music playing)
- When I was ten,
I loved to dance.

I had a crush on my duet
partner, Jasmine.

That's us.

We won many first
place overall at competition,
after competition.

I thought we were unstoppable.

But life quickly became about
more than just winning
platinums.

(car doors open and close)

(little girl yelling in
background)

Brandon!
Don't go! Wait!

(music changes)

(music changes)

Now, the top scoring number of
the evening,

our best in show goes to...

(drumroll, kids laughing)

Diamond Dance
and the Fabulous Free...
(girls screaming, clapping)

This sucks, they win every time!

You know, and it's not because
they're dancing.

(girls clapping and cheering)

Their daddies
have so much money,

they probably buy
off the judges.

Look just face it, man,
they have dance lessons.

No, I ain't buyin it.
Those skinny you-know-what's
dance like robots.

(snaps fingers)
Like, "oh my God, oh my God."

You better stop.
You know what Mr. Ray
always says.

What?
Hold a bake sale? Recycle?

He says, "support
your fellow dancers."
(snaps fingers) Work!

(laughs)

Well if he thinks that I'm
going to tell those snotty

$600-costume-wearing barbies
that they did a good job...

Mr. Ray's on crack.

(clapping, applause)

No way.

What?

Nothing, just thought I saw
someone I know.

Yeah, well, there's no one worth
knowing on this stage but us.
(smacks arm) Okay?

Yeah, maybe you're right.
I can't stand them.

(pop music plays)

(hip hop music plays)

Ladies, ladies, end of class!
Let's take it from the corner.

Mommy, my tights have a hole.

I'm watching your sister, quiet.

She has holes in her tights.
(gasps)

Oh my God, they're going
to think we have
the studio discount.

Order a gross of tights, maybe
a palette. Is a palette within
a gross?

(electronic female voice)
Cleaning, apple is bigger than
everything.

Stop picking that.
(smack)

That's the only pair you're
having.

Why is this leotard too small?
Did Marta wash it again? It's
supposed to be handwashed.

It's not shrinking, is it?
(grunts)

Mom, your breath stinks!

(gasps) What do you mean?
Does it really? I haven't gotten
anything...

Gather girls.
Gather, gather, gather.

Guess what mom? I heard that
Julia got a dance studio for
her 10th birthday!

Shh!
Wait... what?

Yeah! Her parents turned the
garage into a dance studio
for her.

Can we do that please,
please, please?

A dance studio in the garage?
Absolutely not!

No.
We'll build another room,
maybe an entire floor.

Call contractor, inform husband.

Okay, calling tractor
for husband.
(little girl laughs)

(radio chatter
about weather, traffic)

(radio chatter about
weather, traffic)

(clears throat)

Survey says...

(throws dart, laughs)

winner every time!

Mr. Ray, come quick!

What happened?

(water dripping)
I don't know... I think a pipe
exploded.

Ahh crap!

Ew... gross, where?

Well, how can I pay for this,
and get the kids to nationals?

(sighs) We need more money
or this studio is sunk...
literally.

Dad, guess what?
Mom's going to
build a dance studio

in the house with a harlequin
floor and everything!

And how much is this going to
cost me?

Harlequin floor twenty
thousand. Lights, mirrors,
sound system:

eighteen hundred
more. Jasmine dancing on

Broadway... priceless.

My girls are worth it.

Yeah!
Jasmine really needs the
practice space.

Yeah, London too.

No, of course. London's welcome
to use it when you're not.

Which will be
the first of never.

Did I say that out loud?

Mom, why are you always so rude?

(mumbles)
You know what, enough about
dance. Let's talk ice cream!

No!

I am in the mood for a
ginormous Sunday.

With sprinkles?

Double sprinkles. You know
what? Strike that. Triple
sprinkles.

No.
Eat fruit instead.

No bananas or grapes, too much
sugar. Maybe a grapefruit...
well, half.

You hear that girls?
That is the sugar nazi.

Fortunately for
us, I don't speak zee German.

- Dad that was terrible.
- Pretty much.

Go easy on the girls.

Tell me about your next
competition.

Um, Inspired to Dance is
coming so, we're never going to
have a chance against them.

Well, we'll just have to do
something about that.

- Brandon. Yo, Brandon!
- What, what, sorry.

Really?
Her again? She is the
worst one of all!

Really?
And how do you know that?

Because I can just tell by
looking at her. Wow!

You know you can actually see
the end of the stick
just poking out of her.

So gross.
Where are you going?

The car, I've got to
feed the meter.

Okay well we've been standing
in this line like all day, so
hurry up.

- Yeah, I know, it'll be quick.
It'll be quick.
- Seriously! Okay.

All right, which one: purple,
gold, blue, teal, go!

All right, let's see, get purple
on top, purple. Oh yeah!

- Hey Jasmine, long time no see.
- Excuse me.

I don't know if you
remember me.

I remember what
a jerk you are.

Hey, I think you need a napkin.
I'll be right here when you get
back. Go.

You have some nerve talking to
me after what you did.

What? What I did? You were the
one who didn't even...

Who what? Asked my dad to help
you pay your bill so that you
could stay?

You made me and my mom feel
like crap for asking your dad
to open his wallet.

I was your friend!

You made us feel like a charity
case. You couldn't even keep in
touch?

I didn't even know where you
were. It doesn't even matter
anymore.

There you go.

I'm over it.
C'mon kiddo let's
go. Let's go, girl.

- Who's that?
- Nobody important. We're good.

Are you riding
by yourself, miss?

Um no, I'm good.
Thank you.

Hi, what are you looking at?

Aww look, oh I remember that.
Aww you've got such beautiful
cheekbones.

Mine.
You should wear your hair
up more often though.

It really shows them
off.

Here, put it up.
Go on, go on,
don't make me do it.

You see?
So much better.

You know my motto:
mother knows everything.

(chuckles)
Dinner's almost ready.

What the hell was that?

It's nothing. It was just uh,
it's an old routine.
I can't really remember.

You're better off that way,
trust me.
What?

Come on, twinkle
toes, that is not going to win
you a platinum at nationals.

Right but your panda hoodie
will.

Ooh.
Talk to the paw.

(hiphop music plays)

And that concludes our
competition for this evening.
We are about to make a major,

unprecedented announcement that
will change dancer's lives
forever, guaranteed.

And here to tell you all about
it, it gives me great pride and
pleasure to introduce the

the founder of the Circle
Star Nationals.
Here is Mary Buttle.

Thank you so much for that
wonderful introduction.
You're an absolute angel!

Don't tell anyone,
but you're my favorite.

It is now my very great honor
and privilege to extend a very

special invitation to an event
of unprecedented taste
and talent.

It's going to be for the best of
the best, the queen of the crop,
the elite of the elite.

I call
it National Nationals.

(film goes silent, crowd
mumbles)

You know, nobody can hear you.
We can't hear at all.

Don't touch the hair! Hello?
(beep)

All right, uh.
Mary Buttle there.

Now, only two studios will
be invited to compete

for the top
honor, the platinum platinum.

With this award comes the
honor of being known as the best

in the country and
a $25,000 prize.
Ready to hear who they are?

The two studios invited to
compete in the Platinum
Platinum are...

Diamond Dance

and Shockwave Studio!

(electronically) I told you not
to touch me! God you people are
idiots!

Webster should invent a
new word for your brand of
stupid. Where is my idiot son?

Wow! Your feet can really move.
Why aren't you on broadway?

Well, I was on Broadway, and it
was awesome. But what are you
doing here so late?

Shouldn't you be home packing
for National Nationals?

Hey, heartbroken sighs are my
spoken language. Spill it.

She was my duet partner. At
Diamond Dance back when I lived
here. She was my first crush.

Anyways, when my dad bolted, we
lost the house.

Moved away and
never even got the chance to
say goodbye.

Did you keep in touch?

No, no, I didn't even know she
was going still dancing, let
alone at her old studio.

Totally random that we're their
competition.

Okay have you tried getting in
touch with her now that you've
found her again?

No, she hates me.

What are you doing wasting a
moment of your life looking at
him?

(whispers)
I think he's really good.

I'm sorry, can you enunciate?!

I think he's really good!

Oh please, let me see.
Give it to me, give it.

Why does he look familiar?
-That's Brandon. We used to
dance together.

- Oh, that Brandon.
- You know others?

That was so sad. After her
husband left, he took all their
money and we never spoke again.

They were broke, not lepers.

What's the difference?
Clearly he didn't keep up
with his training.

He's the new soloist at
Shockwave. I would say that
he's pretty good.

How am I supposed to know that?
I can't look at anyone else
while you're on stage.

What about when I'm not?

Well when you're not it's too
hard to watch other dancers and
listen to other people tell

me how good you are
at the same time.

You shouldn't be watching
anything.

Come on, let's stretch.
Have you stretched
tonight? Lets go, let's go.

Will you stretch my leg too?

Of course, come up, come up
come up.

- Why don't you show
her some sit-ups?
- Mom, stop.

- Those she could use.
- Stop, stop.

You don't have to be a
toothpick to be a good dancer
you know.

You just have to have
a strong body.

Besides you know
what they always tell me at
convention?

- What?
- Performance and
personality.

And you have those
in spades.

I wish I danced like you.

Aww, take a number. Come on, I
need you to wash that chocolate
off your face.

You know what I
say, yes sugar - no scholarship.
Come on!

Stay away from that boy.

I have Tammy
from Tammy's Tap
'n Twirl on line one.

She heard that
all 17 kids from Inspires Dance

Experience have come down
with the chicken pox.

Germy little things. Is there
anyone who vaccinates their
children anymore?

How many kids did Tammy bring
to my convention last year?

Get me a copy of her
registration sheet.

Thank you. Find me the correct
page! And get my idiot son on
the phone.

Convention classes,
unlimited solos,

group... sweatpants,
videos... pictures.

Whoa!

Mama's going back to
Shanghai in a new pair
of Louie Vuittons!

Tammy my angel, how are you?
Wonderful to hear from you.
- Did you hear?

- Yes I know all 17 of them,
it's just tragic.
- Chicken pox.

- They're all going to be
disfigured. I mean the scarring
alone.

I know.

- Let me ask you, do you still
have 90 kids in your company?
- Ninety-four, actually.

Well then let me be the first
to welcome you
to National Nationals.

Fantastic, we'll
see you there.

No, phew, no!
Ahh, here she is.

I'll take that!

Look, my father will kill me if
I don't come home
with my phone.

He slept outside
overnight to get it.
- (laughs)

Um, who are you
talking to anyways?

'Cause the only person
you need to be talking to...
is right here.

No talking!
No talking!

Now, changement, please.

Okay! Okay, (breathes deeply)
how about Rabelais?

Just a moment class.

- Okay.
- This studio is so broke.

Yeah, yeah it is.
And I think class
is over. Peace.

Yeah, man, let's just go.

Wait! Aren't we supposed
to learn new choreo
for National Nationals.

Um, dancing in the dark is just
a song. Nobody actually does
it. Hello?

And you know if things keep
falling like this,

then we're never gonna
make it to National Nationals.
So stupid.

Wow, another new unitard
from Katrina Wear?

Jeez, Jas, did you buy their
entire website?

Wow!
Jealous much?

Especially when you and I both
know that you're going to be

wearing that
exact same one tomorrow.

- Whatevs.
- Ladies! Ladies!

We have two weeks until
National Nationals.
We have a lot to do.

What's she doing here?

Just living her life through me.

Well maybe she just came to pay
this month's tuition.

Get in formation!

Five, six, seven, eight!
- Sara!

What is this? Why is jasmine in
the back? You know she's your
best dancer,

she should be in
the center, not splitting it
either.

Oh, actually we're doing a
formation change, so...

What, so it's safe to assume
that she'll come to the front?
- Absolutely.

Well, glad we're on the same
page.

Continue!

Wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait!
What is this?

She just
did a triple. You know that she
can do at least six turns.

- Oh we know, we know that Jas
is a fabulous turner-- Fabulous!
- She's a fabulous turner!

But we only
need three here and they need
to be clean so...

- What are you insinuating that
she falls out of her turns?
- Oh, no, no, no.

No, no, no, she's--
- Mom please
you're embarrassing me.

I'm looking after my best
interest... your best interest.

Well you know my motto:
you stay quiet, you stand in the
back, right?

Jas gets nervous when you watch.

What?
Is she talking to me?

Yeah, maybe you should leave.

Oh my God, you see she speaks.
Maybe that's why she's in the
front. Just a thought.

Oops!

Wow come in here and ask you
twice in one day.

You feeling okay?

I'm only being nice so you don't
quit. I can't beat you if you're
not here.

Ladies, can we get back to
rehearsal?

And it would be nice if
we could spend less time on our

personal business and more time
with our eyes on the prize.

Your mom loves you, you know.

I just wished she loved me
like, a little bit less.

Every other Thursday would
be nice.

Formation!

Hey, hi. Two parents are
threatening to yank their kids
'cause they can't afford the

costume fee for the lyrical
number.

DIY it black bottoms,
red on top.

Thanks.

Next.

There's a phone call for you!

Which idiot is it now? I mean.
Who is it?

Ray from Shockwave Studios.

Swell.
His kids have probably come
down with mono.

Ray darling, how wonderful to
hear from you.

Mary, thank you so much
for taking my call.

I'm calling about
National Nationals.
Our studio is

(background)
Oh, no, not again.
Mr. Ray come

quick! Mr. Ray!
- We're having some
serious financial problems.

Is there any way
you could cut us
a break?

Ray I really wish I could help,
but this is the convention
business.

- I understand, hey you know
thanks for taking my--
- (hangs up)

Is that a studio with a problem?

If you call a distinct
inability to pay a problem then
yes! But NNP: not my problem.

What studio was it?

Shock me, shoot me,
sh...

- Shockwave Studios?
- Yes.

But those kids are fantastic.
You can tell they love it!

Right, but what you seem to be
forgetting is that

we are running
the convention business
not the convention charity.

If you can't pony up the
cash then stay at home and
watch Dancing with the Stars.

Is there some reason you're
here?

I thought I'd take you out to
lunch.

Take me?
As in you'll pick up
the check?

Yeah.

I didn't think I paid you well
enough for that.

Well, all right.
Glad to be wrong.
Let me go freshen up.

- You look radiant like the sun.
- Yes, yes, I know. I'm radiant.

You know you're like a little
gypsy child, just pawing me for
coins.

What are you still doing here?

Why aren't you in your car
getting your air condition all
revved up.

You know how I hate
sticking to leather.

Yes mother.

Mary is just fine.

Or god.

What are you doing here?

Just thought I'd check out the
old hood.

- The hood? Why don't you drop
the gangster act, white boy?
- (laughing)

What are you working
on so late?

I'm auditioning for school,
and I have to make up a solo
so... I don't know, its dumb.

No, it's not.
It's what we talked
about when we were kids,

you're gonna go to college
and I was gonna--

Dance in music videos.

Yeah.

Um, I'll just go.

You left without saying goodbye.

You didn't say goodbye before
I left.

Because I was a little kid
and my ride was late.

It's not like I could
just drive myself
to your house.

Well, you could have
tried harder.

Yeah, and you could have
told your mom to wait!

Like my mom would have
listened to me.

All she did back in those days
was drink and cry, and drink
some more.

Is that how you remembered it?

Some things.

May I?

Bravo! Wow. I didn't know they
just let anybody in here these
days.

Mom you remember Brandon right?

Of course I do!
Hi dear.

Here's some money for the bus.

Go get in the car, we have to
leave.

Your father will deal
with you when we get home.
Hurry up.

Listen up because I'm just going
to say this once. Stay away
from my daughter.

You're not good enough
for her. Not then,
and not now. Got it?

She doesn't seem to have a
problem with me.

I know she has this kind of
fairytale notion about who you
were. But I know what you are.

Be a man, walk away.
Just like your father.

Don't you need that money?

Have I ever told you how proud
I am of you?

Only every day.

Here, buy yourself a t-shirt or
something at convention.

Mom that's really sweet of you
but a t-shirt is like 40 bucks.

Well, you're halfway there.
This is special,
you deserve this.

I'll miss you.

Ladies, ladies!
Let's go, come on!
Break is over.

Jas, excuse me, are we
interrupting something?

Ew.
Why are you calling him?

What do you mean by
him?

Him.
The kid we're gonna smoke
at comp.

I don't know, have you seen him
dance lately?

Are you watching his
YouTube videos? Girls. Do you
like him or something?

Girls. No, I don't like him or
something. No, I don't like him!

I don't like him!
I'm just, like, studying
his moves, like watching--

Ladies, ladies,
ladies, ladies.
Huddle up, huddle up.

Ladies.
Hmm.

All right. It is important
that you get a good
night's sleep.

Don't stay eating
a bag of Hot Cheetos
and Dr. Pepper

Eat to fuel your bodies.

And make sure that you
have all your costumes and
accessories.

Extra hair pins and gels.
All of your shoes and clothes
for the convention classes!

Be here at 9:00 A.M. sharp.

Diamonds.
- Let's do this.

Who are you looking for?

Nobody.

Oh, nobody.
Yeah, I don't know her. Hey!

I'm looking for Jas.

Okay, you know you have like no
chance with anybody from that
team right?

Hey Prada, meet pathetic.

These kids are clueless.
Always have to tell them
what to do.

And their parents are even
worse. Speaking of which:
listen, and repeat.

Listen and repeat.
What did I just say?

- Listen and repeat.
- Exactly.

Just do it my way and
everything will go fine.

Remember, I'll be up there,
watching.

- Welcome everyone to the first
annual National Nationals!
- (applause)

We have an exciting three days
of dancing planned for you.

Followed by the quest for the
ultimate dance award, the
Platinum--

Platinum.

Oh.
OH!

OH!
OH!

Stop that, stop that you idiot.
No not you, you keep going.

I'm talking to you now.
Now I'm talking to the audience.
Remember! This event is going

to be televised so make sure
everyone at home

watches so they can
cheer you on to victory!

Can you hear me?

And don't forget! The whole
thing is going to be on TV!

And don't forget about the
grand prize!

And the $25,000 grand prize
for the winners!

I was pausing for effect!

Don't think and talk,
just repeat!

- What are you doing?
- Sorry, technical difficulties.

Put your ear piece back in.

I'm going to kill you, I'm just
going to kill you.

I'm gonna
choke you! And-- I know
fun times. Yes, yes!

So, classes are about to start,
let's just everyone have a great
day of dancing!

Well, you could've
really screwed that up.

Sorry Mother,
technical difficulties.

Check your equipment better.
Now I need you to make sure
this thing runs on time!

Don't let too many kids
or too many parents
take photographs after class.

What do you want me to do,
body check them out of the
way?

Yes!
If that's what it takes.

Of course maybe we should be
charging to take photos with
the instructors.

Why do you let her bully you
like that?

Because she's my boss.
And she's also misunderstood.

She's also your mother, she
shouldn't talk to you like that.

Hey I'm on your side, you know?

I know. Lets just discuss this
later. I have to make sure the
classes run on time.

Okay.

Here looks good.

Looks like someones already
sittin there.

Where?
Well, looks like it's free
after all.

(laughs)

Mom?
I'm hungry.

You're always hungry.
Stop whining,
it's so unattractive.

But I'm hungry!

Just go stand in the front and
then the teachers will notice
you.

But I don't like the front,
it'll just mess up the combos
anyway!

Stop whining!

Maybe you won't mess up the
combos if you paid attention!

Why aren't you wearing the team
jackets like the other moms?

Because polyester gives me
hives. Now go. Go, get, go!

Ballet shoes. Go! If there is
one thing that I hate. It's
sickle feet.

When I say sickle,
you say ew.

SICKLE.
- EW.

- SICKLE.
- EW.

Now everyone put your right
foot out front and point it hard

really hard, let me see it, let
me see it.

Don't sickle! Good.
- EW!

Look at London compared to the
other kids. She gets bigger by
the day, I swear.

The first call im going to make
when I get home

is to weight watchers.
- (laughs)

Oh my God!
The child is ten!

- I'm sure they have
a kids menu.
- A kids menu! (laughing)

She's never going to get a solo,
looking like that!

I don't know, I had a lot of
solos when I was younger.

I guess you looked like that
too.

Yeah, with red hair.

- What?
It's low carb.
- Oh.

- Mm-hmm, it's paleo.
- Ooh hunters, gatherers.

Would you hold that for me? I'm
going to go check on the
senior's room.

This is like water torture, you
know what I mean?

Wow! '80s workout Malibu
Barbies. You guys must be like
special edition right?

You're so classy, clearly
you're in the wrong room.

This is for advanced dancers.
Fight club, is down the hall.
- (laughs)

Hey, calm down,
we're all just here
to dance right?

Right, right. So ladies why
don't we handle this on the
floor, like real dancers?

Okay.

- All right, Josh!
- Give her space.

- She's got great legs!
- Okay that's great,
it's stiff but it's cool.

- Ooh.
- What. Let me drop it
down low.

Oh excuse me, excuse me?
Barbie?

Uh, see, the turn was on three.
We're in an advanced
dance class.

Slow math, is down the hall.

- Ooh!
- Sorry, do you know how
to count?

- That was quick.
- Mm-hmm.

Mom, I'm tired!

Aww I'm sure! What has it been?
(gasps) All of seven minutes!

I'm tired.

Aww you're tired, you're hungry.
Do you know what you're not?
Dancing. Now go!

Now take it from the top, here
we go, one, two, three, four,

open five, six, first
arabesque, hold that pose.

Arm directly across
from your nose.
Good, good, good.

What is she doing?

Wow those are some nice splits
but um, I don't think we have
any in this combo.

Everybody look at her,
go, go.

Up!

Just kidding with you.

All right, here we go from the
top again!

And five six seven we have
one, two, three, four...

London, you're gonna get called
out!

(laughing)
- I swear!

That child is going to be the
death of me. If I don't kill
her first.

what are you doing?

I just wanted a second, to
myself.

Are you okay?

I'm great, thanks.

Sometimes I feel like I'm
suffocating.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Hey I think I found something
you might like. Come on, I've
got ten minutes

before rehearsal.

One, two, three.

What is it?

What do you mean? It's a really
cool warehouse. I thought you'd
like it. You don't like it?

- This is creepy! What is...
- (both laughing)

I know it's not Diamond Dance

but I thought you'd
think it was cool.
I brought music.

Yeah, it's like.... It's nice.

This floor is so scuffed,
it just looks awful!

Speaking of awful.

I want you to keep
all the parents away

from me this weekend,
I can't stand their whining.

One parent actually had
the nerve to come
up to me yesterday

and complain about
having to pay to watch
her daughter dance.

I told her no wad, no watch.
How else am I supposed to pay
for this $25,000 prize, it's

certainly not going to come out
of my pocket.

It's the observer bands, and
the water and the videos and
the pictures. It's all about the

Benjamins and the Lincolns and
the Franklins.

And here I thought it was about
the dancing and the kids
learning and being inspired.

What a sweet boy you are.

There's a tree in the parking
lot - go hug it.
- (laughs mechanically)

You see that statement is
exactly why you work for me and
not the other way around.

Because if you ran this show,
we'd be sunk before Christmas.

All right, I want you
to test out this floor,
make sure its not too slippery.

I 'd hate for one of
their precious little angels

to take a fall and--
- Get hurt?

No I'd get sued.
Go.

It is-it is kind of slippery.

You've been dancing since you
were five, you still don't have
the pirouette.

Hey. I came in second in
your Nationals.

That's right.
You lost.

We just got twenty boxes of
sweatpants in, I want them
unpack and ironed.

- Sweatpants don't wrinkle.
- Yes fine!

Whatever. Just unpack
them and put them

in nice little piles
like they do at
the gap.

Competition starts in fifteen
minutes. I need you to line up
in the order of the first five

dances. Which are: Single
Ladies, Let's Get Loud,

Off With Their Heads,
Party Rock, and is
Via Day Le Rosa here?

Great!
Let's head backstage.

Mmm. Mmm this is so good.
Are you gonna finish that?

What a pig.

Let's see some dance!
Right?

- There's no seats left!
- Don't be ridiculous.
Here, here, come on.

Those are for the
studio owners.

Given the amount we pay
each month, I'd say we're
part owners.

Sit, sit down.
Is your phone off?

- Yes, yes, it is.
- Okay.

Are you going somewhere
after this?

- No.
Just trying to look my best.
- Oh, great.

Unlike the rest of this
stretch pants crowd.

Aren't you cold? These
ballrooms are like Antarctica.
(laughs)

Don't worry about me.

Besides you know I only watch
the numbers Jas is in anyways.
- Oh right I forgot, yup.

- Oh no.
- What, what, what?

- Chip.
- Aww.

It wont look so good now when
people bend to kiss my ring.

Who do you think you are?
The pope?
(laughing hysterically)

Oh my God, what are you
thinking?

There's no way I can get
through this sober.

Yeah, well we've seen your kid
dance, we should be the ones
drinking.

(laughs)

- I'll take those, thank you!
Sit.
- You are bad, you're so bad.

Cheers!

Ooh, look!
They're about to begin!
- (applause)

Welcome to the first, annual--
my mother everybody Mary Buttle!

The owner of this
fabulous convention!
- Thank you so much

for that wonderful
applause, you'd think I was a

star!
But I'm not.

You all are, in fact how
many stars of tomorrow

are sitting in these
seats right now, I wonder, huh?

I just want to say how proud I
am that I am able to provide
all of you a warm, safe,

environment for you all to do
your best!

And lets begin! Our
first number up is JT to tell
us who is our first number up!

Mary Buttle!

- Good luck.
- You too.

Nice costume!
Ross, dress for less?

Nice boobs... wonder bra?

Let's go, we have to line up.

We have to go, we have to line
up. Seriously I can't stand her,
if they win, I'm going to puke.

Thanks for sticking up for me.

I didn't do it for you.

The judges are taking a quick
break. But are about to take
their seats.

And we can continue!

Senior open small group number
108 shine on!

These kids are incredible.

If I didn't know any better I'd
swear some of them are ringers.
- God they're amazing.

You think the judges saw that?

Probably.

Well there's only one winner.
There's a cleaner team,
no mistakes.

They'll bring it.
No worries.

All right Diamond Dance, what a
way to kick it up a notch!

Okay now for a small group,
number 109: Battle for the
Beat!

(applause)

They did alright, hopefully it
was enough!

They're huddling,
they're huddling!

- That was so great!
- Mr. Ray!
- So good!

- So I just got here, um...
- Hey!

I know.

About you, her, duet
partners. Yeah, I heard you
talking in the studio.

What? You weren't going to say
anything to me? I don't mean
anything to you?

Of course you do, we're friends.

- Friends?
- Yeah.

I mean how could you even think
about her? She is the
competition!

You should want to
bury her not stick your tongue
down her throat!

- I'm sorry you feel that way.
- Really?

I am. And if I hurt you at all,
I'm sorry about that too.

I really, really like Jas.

And honestly I would like
nothing more than for my friend
to understand that.

Okay.

God!

I've been looking
everywhere for you!

Come on. They're about to
announce the awards. So, are
you okay?

Couldn't be better.

... and one of the pudgy little
urine ridden creatures is going
to go home with a trophy.

They will eat me alive if
I go out there.

But I'll do it.
- Fine, call that dinner

Mm dinner.
And dessert.
God I love this show.

All you do is eat. You've
actually had pizzas delivered
to the competition.

- I have a tape worm.
- Do--

Really?
- (applause)

- Oh, there's a god.
- Oh God I think I just peed
myself a little!

I was going to announce the
winners now.

- I did, I did, I peed!
- Don't wave.

- So proud.
- Please don't wave.

But I have been instructed to
inform you that we're going

to announce the winners at our
gala. Tomorrow evening.

And tickets to the gala are
still available. $85.
- (boos)

At the door.

And please make sure you eat
first. Because we're only
serving dessert.

Because dessert
is the cheapest thing
on the menu.

Hey babe, what do you got
against dessert?

You better watch yourself
young man, you almost
made me look bad.

No, Mary, you do that all by
yourself.

Come on babe, we've got to go
get ready for the faculty show.

Are you going to finish that?

Welcome dancers to the closing
night gala!

We have had a great three days
here but who wants to know the
winners?!

I cannot wait for
this night to be over! If I
have to look at one more kid

who cant dance or one more
parent who thinks theyre kid
is Travis--

- (boos)
- I'm going to rip my hair out.

One parent even had the nerve
to come up and yell at me

because her kid wasn't
growing up. I need to put in a

million years, your kid cannot
compete.

Why are they yelling? What has
my idiot son said now?

Trust me, you simply have no
idea how...
- Mother!

I told you never to call me
that, you can call me god,

or lord, or master, or--
- Enough is enough.

This time instead of me
embarrassing you, you've
embarrassed yourself.

what are you talking about?

Everybody heard you
on the phone.
- What?

Your mic is open.

Everyone heard every word.

You insulted a room
full of people.

Well I was kidding, and
everybody knows that I was
kidding because I'm a kidder.

See, besides, nobody
was supposed to
hear that,

see and that's your
fault. That's not my fault.
Where's bob the audio guy?

It's always someone
else's fault.
Always.

You think you can blame
someone else,
and it doesn't count.

And his name is Jim!

But it is your fault.

You are the owner. You speak
without thinking. And you
hurt people.

Well I can fix this,
I can fix this.

No, not this time.

Wait, wait, guys, listen.
I know what she said
was terrible,

but she's not all bad.

How can you say that after all
we just heard?

She has a good side to her,
okay I've seen it. It may be
small, but its there.

Prove it!

Listen, my studio was so broke
we couldn't even afford bus
fare here, okay?

Mary found
this out, she sent us a check
to cover the costs.

I don't know what he's talking
about.

I sent the check.

You what?! You sent my money to
them without asking me?

Do you know what you've done, I
could have you arrested for
stealing!

(boos)

Get this mic off, somebody help
me get the--

Look have you seen those kids
out there?

It's not a business
to them. Do you want to be
in business come Christmas?

Yes.

Then I'm going to take it over.

From now on, I'm running
Circlestar.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have
some awards to hand out.

Well, I am proud of you!

Thanks.

I knew you could do it. I know
you can do it. Go.

Now onto the specialty awards.
Most improved in Classes goes

to, London from Diamond Dance!
- (screams)

Well done!
Well take a bow!

Very good.

Now, the award that
everybody has been waiting for.

The top scoring dance of the
night. In second place,

It seems that there are no
winners, we have a tie!

Diamond Dance
and Shockwave Studios
have tied

Mow there's no precedent, for
this being the first National
Nationals.

So after conferring
with our judges, we decided
there will be a dance off.

One student from each of the
top scoring studios will dance
for the win.

- Why did they pick me? They
should've picked you.
- I certainly think so.

Stop it.

They picked you because
you're the best.

And you can do it.
Now get dressed,
we're running out of time.

- Hey, want me
to help you stretch?
- Sure.

- So, what song
are you going to use?
- I don't know.

What style are you going to use?

I don't know yet.

You're not going to go of the
competition are you?

' Cause if you do,
you'll be letting
everyone down.

That's so insulting, I'm not
even going to answer.

- You are, aren't you? Gonna
throw the competition
- No of course not!

This has nothing to do with her.

- I'm just scared.
- Off what? Of losing?
Or beating him?

Either.
Both. I don't know.

You look great.
Now, let's do your hair.

- You sound just like my mother.
- Good.

Just double checking, and I
know we can count on you.

Oh I gotta go.

Well good luck!
The studio really needs
it, you know?

You can go.

Let's just put that hideous
mistake behind us.

Focus on how
we're going to win.
- We?

Yeah. Point your toes, head up.
Stomach in. Extend your hands,
you know don't give that boy

another thought, he's not
competition,

he shouldn't even
be allowed on the same stage.
- Will you be quiet please?

I love you but sometimes I just
don't like you very much.

Luckily, your judgement
is off.

And Brandon? I want to be more
than his friend.

Still friends?

- I guess.
- You guess.

Go kill it.
You got it.

So?

Diamond Dance won coin
toss, Jasmine, you'll dance
first.

And then Brandon. You
guys have any questions?

No.

May the best dancer win.

Hey Jas.
Jas, would you look at me?

Let's go kill it out there.
- You, too.

Hey.
For luck.

Dancing first at our National
Nationals is Jasmine from
Diamond Dance!

- Next up to the stage is
Brandon from Shockwave Studios.
- (applause)

Whoo, that looks like it's going
to be a close one!

Now lets give it up
one more time for
these amazing dancers!

Now let's see how our judges are
doing making what we are sure
to be a tough decision.

Randy?

This was a close battle folks.
Can I have both dancers up
here, center stage please?

By a margin less than 2/10 of
a point.

The winner of this year's
National Nationals, which,

along with the title, comes a
check for $25,000,

goes to...

Shockwave Studios!
- (applause)

All right,
ladies, ladies, ladies,

we have only a few weeks until
the next competition I need
focus, focus, focus!

for Sarah, it was just onto the
next competition.

... I want you to
eat food that fuels the bodies--

London finally has her own fan
club.

And JT lets Mary stick
around. She even answers her
own phone.

Simone and Hope discovered you
can be friends with the enemy.

The check and the win saved Mr.
Ray's studio. So, Shockwave
sticks around.

As for Jasmine and me, well, we
learned you can fall in love
with the competition.
