Original subtitles

at the Sweetheart Dance.

Oh, and uh...

Some grade niners will be participating in Bot Wars...

Jane!

...So please don't mock them.

Jane!

Delivery for you. From Spin.

Mm.

At least someone has a sweetheart.

Had a sweetheart.

(Cleansing breaths)

Lovers' quarrel?

He's just... ugh! You know? Ugh!

Yeah, hope you're more articulate

when you deliver your speech this morning.

I have to finish it first.

I spent all night trying to write

about being a girl on a guy's team

and all I could think about was a guy.

So Spinner lied about police college?

Yeah, and then showed up drunk at my house

and woke up my mom.

Seriously?

I love Spin, but sometimes...

Sometimes love just ain't enough?

Oh.

There's my favorite wide receiver.

You won't forget to mention me in your speech, right?

If you'd just let me on the team in the first place,

I'd have nothing to talk about.

Cute. Don't say that.

Shep and (Chuckle)

What am I gonna do, man?

Spinner can wait. Your speech can't.

I'll help you write it on the way to the symposium.

It'll all work out. I promise.

Hi. Sorry we're late.

So, we'll just head in and uh, find our seats.

Uh, no you won't.

The symposium's already started.

No late comers.

Do you really wanna be the moron that doesn't let...

Barry Cohen in?

Barry Cohen?

From Saskatchewan?

I've read your book.

My-my book? Really?

I thought you missed your flight.

Believe me, Barry Cohen would do anything

to be at this symposium.

Well...

I will let them know you're here.

Any words of advice?

Don't be a blockhead.

Some of us are still in school, so I gotta head back.

(Deep, preparatory breath)

I wanted to play football.

I didn't wanna be a hero.

But anyone who actively pursues their goals in life,

despite opposition, becomes one.

Sometimes, um, things happen

and you find that you have to take a stand,

and people around you make that possible.

Some fellow students let me know

that they looked up to me...

(Cheering wildly)

Welcome to Bot High school edition.

Ready for battle?

(Cheers and whistles)

Okay, we're done unloading the robot.

Are you ready to go show it to the judges?

Once your bot has been evaluated...

-Hey. -Hi.

So roboteers, let's get into...

Clare, are you with us here?

Clare and I need a moment to discuss strategy.

Thought we weren't letting hormones

get in the way of Bot Wars?

It's complicated.

I'll simplify.

You like KC. KC likes you.

Go to the dance with him.

-But Connor... -Will get over it.

(Low hum of chatter)

I reanalyzed the dance situation

and...

Decided that it wouldn't be completely horrible

to go with you.

You're assuming I still wanna go with you.

(Half laughs)

-You're so... -Charming?

Johnny DiMarco is into robots?

I have a brother in the competition.

So you have a niner brother

you're not embarrassed to be seen with?

It's just...

It's just weird to like a niner.

You like me? Heh.

Enough to go to the dance?

I don't do dances,

and I especially don't do them with the niners.

Well, I'm going and I'm gonna look hot.

So if you skip out?

Your loss.

(Hum of chatter)

An all night horror marathon?

Interesting choice for a first date.

Next to a zombie or a werewolf,

I'm bound to look good.

So...

So...

This is our room.

And Manny and Liberty agreed to be elsewhere.

Do you always invite guys in on the first date?

Well...

There's a couch in the common room.

Of course, it would be rude

to kick you out of your own room.

Kelly.

Gwyneth?

Can we talk?

-Yeah. -Yeah.

Yeah, let's go get a coffee.

I will be... Right back.

I'll be waiting.

I wouldn't be here today,

if one person hadn't pushed me to succeed.

My coach, Principal Sheppard.

-Thank you. (Audience applauds)

Girl's got a short-term memory.

No one's perfect, dude.

What are you doing here, Spinner?

I know I messed up yesterday.

But I learned my lesson.

I am never ever gonna lie to you again.

I promise...

Next up, we have Barry Cohen

discussing the challenges of being a high school farmer.

I thought we had missed him,

but he showed. Barry?

Uh, Barry? We're waitin' on you.

(Applauding)

(Traffic whirs)

Battling it out with reigning champion,

Governor Simcoe Symbotics,

is my alma mater, Degrassi.

(Applauds and cheers)

Remember all the rules.

Put the ball over the beam for 8 points.

Team with the most points wins.

Let's show everyone what Degrassi's made of.

Good luck.

Thanks.

Good luck.

Ew, Connor. Don't be disgusting.

But KC squeezed Clare's hand.

She's also going to the dance with him.

And don't you dare ask me.

Are you going to the dance with KC?

Not now, Connor.

The match is about to start.

But I asked you, and I was your friend first.

And I'm way better at robots than KC.

Just... just go back to your spot.

We'll talk about it after the round.

(Cheering and applauding)

Ready teams? Five, four, three, two...

-And go! (Game buzzer buzzes)

(Robots whir)

(Cheer)

(Alarm buzzes)

(Cheers)

What's your problem, dude?

And it's 32 to nothing for Governor Simcoe.

Even if they could bring their robots back to life,

I doubt Degrassi has a chance here.

Let's hope they do better in the next round.

Maybe Kelly got in an accident, or...

Hey, we were just in the coffee shop talking

and, oops, our tongues collided.

It's obvious their break up turned into a make-up.

I'm off.

To where?

Home for the weekend. I do not want to be here

when Kelly and Gwyneth get back.

(Exhales forcefully)

Coffee isn't something that we farm in Canada.

But milk is.

And milk is used in coffee.

We're seeing a bigger demand for it,

uh, in urban markets,

especially from coffee shops.

(Scoffs)

Who thought Spinner could handle himself

in a place like this?

...production in Canada. Thank you.

(Applauding)

Thank you, Barry,

for that compelling tale of life on a farm.

Is there anything else you'd like to say?

Yeah.

Jane, you wanted me to have a plan for the future, right?

I do.

Will you marry me?

Ooh! (Whistle)

(Chanting) Barry. Jane and Barry.

(Chant and clap) Jane and Barry, Jane and Barry,

Jane and Barry, Jane and Barry,

Jane and Barry, Jane and Barry.

How could you do that?

Tell you I wanna spend the rest of my life with you?

-Gee, I'm sorry. -Today was important.

It could've opened doors for me.

If your stupid boyfriend

hadn't screwed it up again, right?

I'm talking about how important it is

for women to succeed on their own,

and then you sweep in and say let's get hitched!

Did you even listen to my speech?

Yeah.

Didn't thank me.

For what? For ruining my big day?

You want time to think?

Take all the time you want.

I am done.

It's probably for the best, dude.

Okay.

I heard I already got my shout-out in your speech, huh?

You need your head checked.

I didn't get hit that hard.

Then how do you explain the memory loss?

Girl wants on the football team.

Guys play dirty to get her off.

Principal turns a blind eye.

One guy's there for you through it all.

He lied to me about police college,

and proposed to me in front of a hundred people.

You don't want to marry him? I get that.

But give the dude his due,

you should've thanked him.

Okay, team. Listen up.

Get yourselves cleaned up

and get ready to get your dance on.

And remember, every girl loves a football player.

(Cheering)

After ten hours of battling,

Degrassi has fought back for a chance at the podium.

And things are getting tense in the third place battle.

St. George and Degrassi

are truly fighting to the death.

25 seconds left, folks.

(Robots whir)

So you're really not going to the dance with KC?

You're asking me about the dance?

Now? We're fighting for our lives here.

(Robots whir)

Shoot!

(Game buzzer buzzes)

(Cheering wildly)

Three, two, one...

And it's over! Degrassi wins third place.

Way to make me proud!

(Cheering wildly)

Clare, will you go to the dance with Connor?

(Chant and clap) Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance!

(Nervously) Okay.

(Door opens)

Where's Emma?

You gonna break it to her nicely?

Break what?

You and Gwyneth, back together.

We're not.

I just spent the last 8 hours telling her that.

Okay, well,

Em was imagining everything but.

I was just trying to be a good guy.

Well, you weren't to her.

'Kay, you can't have everyone like you

all the time.

Sometimes you have to choose

and this time, you chose wrong.

Ticket please.

It's good to see I'm not the only one here

forced to go solo.

(Slow music plays)

Aren't we supposed to dance?

Theoretically, yes, but...

Okay.

(Laughs) That...

Is how you slow dance, kids.

Excuse me.

(Music becomes muted)

(Door shuts)

Having fun with Connor?

He's...

I wanted to go with you.

Prove it...

By dancing with me.

Clare!

You're my date to the dance!

You're supposed to dance with me.

Connor!

(Door opens, footsteps clack as Claire runs)

(Guitar plays)

I didn't date you

'cause I was trying to be a good guy.

I'm done being a good guy.

You came all this way to tell me that.

No. I came to kiss you.

(Door crashes open)

Dances suck!

I can't find Spin anywhere.

For some reason, I really thought he'd show.

And give you another opportunity

to break his heart?

Unlikely.

Wait, you don't know where he is, do you?

Yes.

Care to share the wealth?

Beg.

Excuse me?

If you wanna know where Spinner is,

get down on your knees and beg.

(Breath of disbelief)

(Awkward half laugh)

(Clears throat uncomfortably)

(Laughs)

Will you help me find Spinner?

Yeah.

Man, you are going to love my uncle's cottage.

Anywhere, as long as it's far away

from that stupid Sweetheart Dance.

(Jay's cell phone rings)

Y'ello?

And how am I supposed to do that?

Ah. Gotcha.

(Phone beeps off)

We have to go to the dance.

Manny's there.

Now it's my turn to win back my woman.

And I need a wingman.

Fine.

But if I see Jane, I'm bailing.

(Engine revs, truck rumbles off)

(Slow music plays, low hum of chatter)

Manny?

Manny!

Excuse me!

Where are you, Manny?

You sure she's really here?

There she is.

(Taps mic and clears throat) Um...

Yesterday, I made a speech.

I thanked lots of people,

but I was too stupid to recognize someone

who supported me through it all.

You were right, Spin.

I shoulda thanked you.

I hope it's not too late, because...

I love you,

and I don't know what I'd do without you.

Awwww...

(Applauding)

Can I have this dance?

You do like me.

A lot.

You're trippin' backwoods.

Why are you so afraid to admit it?

(Excited squeal) Oh!

Was that your first kiss?

The next one won't be.

Have you guys seen Sav?

Nope.

I'm not ready for a relationship.

And who are you not ready to have this relationship with?

Quite the schemer, Holly J. I am impressed.

Nah. I'm just a hopeless romantic.

Yeah.

Me too.

I wish she really was here.

I kept asking if I could picture my life with you,

and I should've been asking

if I could picture it without you.

And?

I couldn't.

But no wedding until after university.

Well, it might take that long for your mom to forgive me, so.
