Dance Academy (2010) s01e07 Episode Script

Previously on Dance Academy Look, let's just forget the whole mentor thing.
Let's just call it mates, yeah? Where's my wallet? There's some cash missing.
I can give it back.
I don't want your money.
But you owe me.
And leaving me at the beach? Hilarious, right? But you weren't even with us.
Not responding to my list?! Because of you, the whole school is laughing at me.
What are you talking about here? I don't even know you.
Because he's distracting and he's frustrating and generally bad for me.
From now on I'm sticking with my friends.
Hip-hop is not about steps and it's not about technique.
In ballet, you always know where the next step is.
The rules haven't changed for the last hundred years.
Yeah, I don't want you to look perfect.
I want you to be real.
Abigail, your upper body looks like a stick.
There's no groove in it.
That's because I'm a ballet dancer.
Do not tell me your problems.
But things can't stay the same forever.
We all have to learn new tricks even when every fibre of our being is screaming out against it.
Christian, show her.
See the way he's owning it? You try.
Looser.
I said, "Looser".
If I was any looser I'd fall over.
Good, good, good.
Good.
Ooh! Now, for a middle-class Jewish boy from Rose Bay, I think I'm getting the hang of hip-hop.
Sup? Higher.
Can't see me.
You know, it's kind of wrong even hearing you say the words "hip-hop".
Hip.
No, don't.
Hop.
- Double battement frappé.
- Ethan.
She isn't.
No, she is.
Um, sure.
Thanks.
I'll give it a listen.
OK, great.
That'd be great.
Did you just give my brother a mix CD? It's just a few dance tracks.
I'm only being friendly.
I tried.
I really tried not to think about him.
I can't help it.
Yeah, she did try, Kat.
Not hard enough.
Hey, Christian! Stop.
Stop.
Wait up.
I'm doing this piece for the showcase tomorrow.
One of my dancers got injured.
There's a bit of hip-hop.
You up for it? Oh, yeah.
I just do class work.
I don't do extra.
Any of the other first-years would kill for this.
Really? You should probably ask one of them.
Hey! I didn't say you could leave.
I could have told Kennedy about the wallet.
You owe me.
Look, I should have said - if you do this, you get to blow off class for the rest of the day.
To be fair, you can't control a crush.
Thank you.
That's all I'm saying.
Yeah, but it's not actually real! But it is to me.
OK, but do you have to be so open about it? Well, if I didn't do anything, nothing would ever happen.
Tiara, you can make as many mix CDs as you like.
The fact is if a boy likes you, he is going to make the first move.
That is SO last century.
And yet real.
It's true, T.
Like you'd know, Lieberman.
Hey, I'm a guy.
I've got moves.
I'm surprised at you, Kat.
Did feminists fight and and die and burn underwear just so we could wait by the phone? OK, so we're in the middle of a turf war, yeah? Only one of the gang leaders, that's you, has a thing for a chick in the other gang, and that's Belle.
And eight and She's dancing in a club when he sees her.
Loves her moves, yeah? Nice, Belle.
So they dance together.
In the club, they're hot.
But they can't be together because of the turf war.
This night is all they have.
Um, yeah, I can't do that.
Sure you can.
I've seen you dance.
No.
No, I don't WANT to do that.
It's crap.
What's wrong with it? Turf war? Dance-off in a club? I mean, when does that happen? And, Isabelle, no offence, but you're a ballerina.
You have no booty.
I should hope not.
It's like some bad LA-wannabe rip-off.
Well, that's hip-hop.
He's awesome.
Hey, ballet boy.
Who's that? Kaylah.
The one you should be looking out for.
Kat, it's not going away.
- Sad, but true.
- So why hassle her? If Ethan had even noticed her, he would have made a move by now.
I'm trying to save her the pain.
Let her have her crush.
I don't get SO the whole 'crush' thing.
Oh, yeah.
Sure.
Yeah.
Really? Really.
Like, really? Yes.
So you've never had someone really close? Someone you see every day? Like, you're working with them and you're sitting next to each other, and, I mean, you're breathing in the same air that they're breathing out and And you know all this because? Look, all I'm saying is that we don't have control over these feelings, even when they're wrong.
Sometimes they just eat away at you.
Sounds painful.
Yeah, it's torture.
Hey.
Oh.
What you guys talking about? Ooh, gotta go.
Where? Rehearsal studio.
Why? Yes, why? No, give it back! What are you doing? No, give me back my phone.
It's Ethan's schedule.
Give it back.
Stop it, Kat.
Every class he has.
Where he has lunch?! The whole stupid thing! No.
Give it back.
This is way more than disturbing.
Yeah, this is like psycho stalking, Tara.
Sammy, please.
Give it Wait.
Wait.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Oh, oh, oh, it's gone.
There you go.
No more list.
'Bye, Tara.
Amazing.
You're up.
We're gonna be YouTube stars, bro.
You've got some nice tricks.
Oh, thanks.
How did you do that turning jump? I love that.
I don't know.
See, you put your weight on your left leg, right? Never really thought of it that way.
How about I give it a go? Tell me where I'm going wrong.
OK.
Start with your right leg.
Yep.
Feet still.
OK.
- No, stand up - Yeah.
Yep.
You're gonna step.
Take off on your right leg.
- Alright, let's go.
- Why? Because we're done.
We'll maybe catch up some time? Have you noticed anything weird about Sammy? Apart from the usual? I've got this Oh, it's nothing.
What? I've got this feeling.
I don't know.
Maybe I'm reading it really wrong.
I just Use your words.
I hate to use this one.
I think he's got a crush on me.
What? He pretty much admitted it at lunchtime.
No way! I'm getting all the signals.
Is that flirting? This is bad.
I know.
Mr Lieberman? Never, ever date a friend.
Ever.
- Even I know that.
- Ladies! And lifting up through the feet Well, maybe it's not a real crush.
Like, is it just a passing thought, or is it a real in-your-DNA, internal GPS that tells you whenever he's close by, full-blown obsession? Sounds complicated.
No, not really.
OK, do you know if he's doing the whole fantasy thing? Tara, yuck! No, I don't mean like that.
I mean, crush movie.
You know, when you replay every significant moment you've ever had with the object of your crush, which in my case - I know.
- Katrina! Is this your Mum's collection? You can't insult me.
I'm not listening.
What about the fight fantasy? OK, I'm almost too afraid to ask.
It's good.
So there's been a fight - over you, of course.
Of course.
Trust me.
This is one of my favourites.
So he's been in this big fight and he's pretty hurt torn shirt, cut lip - which is when we both realise That you are in desperate need of help.
What's this? 'Carmen's 'Habanera'.
Now, that's awesome.
It's about unrequited love.
And she just takes your breath away, this gorgeous rich girl.
Totally out of your league, right? But you both know all that doesn't matter.
You just have to be together.
So you break the rules, start something new.
He's here.
Who's here? Ethan.
I told you.
It's the internal GPS.
OK, there's this magnetic pole inside me that swings towards him.
Seriously, it can be, like, kilometres.
OK, enough.
He's my brother.
No more Ethan.
Hey, Tara.
Thanks for the CD.
I'm actually using one of the tracks tomorrow.
Doesn't change a thing.
Oh, there you are.
Here I am.
Is that today's, is it? Mm-hm.
Nice.
Yeah.
Ugly, ugly dancer's feet.
Look at 'em.
Blisters, blood.
They're nasty.
Look, Kat, I've been wanting to talk to you about something, and I've been putting it off for too long.
And I didn't want to make things awkward between us, you know? So I've decided to just jump in and tell you exactly how I feel Oh, OK.
Stop, stop, stop, stop.
What? I love you, Sammy, just not like that.
At all.
What? Oh.
Gross.
Tara? Sorry, guys! What? What, what, what? OK, so I spoke to Sammy.
He has got a crush.
It's not me.
So who is it? It's you.
No way.
He said something about breathing in the same air that the other person was breathing out.
Sounds like something I would say.
Oh, no.
Oh, yes.
Oh, crap.
Look, before you say anything, let me just say this.
Things look like they could be progressing with Ethan, and I'm not saying we're going to get together right away, but I just think he's, you know So I'm really flattered and We're just so similar, which makes us really great friends Which is why I'm not interested in you.
Or Kat.
Women! I booked this studio.
I'll just be a couple of minutes.
There is a reservation form, you know.
Yeah, whatever.
You know, being good at hip-hop's never going to make you a better ballet dancer.
Yeah? What makes you think that's what I want? Then why are you here? It's a Sunday.
Who are you trying to impress? You know what? Studio's yours.
Hey, heard you're going to be doing Ethan's chory later.
You know that was my role? No, I didn't.
Yeah.
Well, you know, groin strain, so Tragedy for us all.
You did me such a favour.
Hey, you know, when you first got here, I thought, "Have they just given this guy a place out of charity?" You know, we all did.
We were wrong about you, Christian.
You really deserve to be here.
Can I borrow him for a sec, Belle? Yeah.
Hey, how are you doing? Good? Listen, I don't know if you know, but my dad's a choreographer, which means that this whole thing, it's a lot more important than just the marks, yeah? There's other pressures.
Good luck, Ethan.
Yeah, thanks.
They all want me to fail, but you don't need to worry about that.
Kennedy was really anti me using a first-year, but I knew I was right.
You've really come up with the goods, man.
Ooh.
OK, sure.
See you in there, champ.
I don't know what's happened to him.
I don't understand.
He was really keen, wasn't he, Belle? He came to rehearsals.
Well, look, it doesn't matter.
I just need a little bit of extra time to find another dancer.
I'll put you down for the end of the day.
Thank you, sir.
But choreography isn't just about the steps, Ethan.
It's also about casting.
It's about choosing the right dancer for the right role.
I can't believe he'd do this to you.
You never should have trusted him.
The girl from the video.
She could do it easy.
I'd just have to cut out the ballet moves.
Isn't it meant to be a love story? What do you want from me? OK, I don't know what this is about.
Get off me.
- Not till you tell us.
- Tell you what? Who you've got a crush on.
It's not me.
It's not Kat.
Who else? Lee? - I'm not telling.
Let it go.
- Camilla! There's only one way out of this.
Sariya? Bonnie? Guys, just drop it, OK? I know, I know.
I know, I know.
It's Abigail! Imagine Sammy and Abigail.
Yeah, Abigail.
Oh, my stomach.
My stomach hurts.
You can't be serious.
I didn't mean for it to happen.
Kat? - Traitor.
- I'm sorry, OK? But She just drives me crazy and the heart just goes where it goes.
Tara? I don't know.
I mean, I know I can do it.
I don't know if I can learn it all in two hours.
They're all your steps.
I based it on what you were doing yesterday.
Seriously? Come on.
I'll show you, but then we have to get going, alright? Yo! It's the rich boy.
Come back for another visit to the people zoo, have you? Where've you been? Good surf.
And what about Ethan? You let him down.
I don't owe him anything anymore.
So that's it? That's fine.
He's got someone to replace you, anyway.
He's due back with her any minute.
Her? Afraid she'll be better? You should know.
You introduced them.
Ooh.
What do you think? I think you look stupid.
I think it suits me.
What do you think? Looks brilliant.
Looks amazing.
You know what? You keep it.
It's yours.
No, give it back.
No, he can have it.
Let's just go.
So you're bored with us already? Nice watch.
Think it's a Rolex? It's a pirate, idiot.
It's a fake, just like you.
Ethan! Tweak, just let it go.
Come on, let's go.
So I'm a fake, now, am I? Total hip-hop wannabe.
What do you reckon? Do we have to tell them we lost? Nah.
He's here.
GPS.
The first rule of ballet is to make every single movement as beautiful as possible.
But sometimes breaking the rules is the only way of getting it right So you know that fantasy thing where he's been fighting for you? I totally get it.
And once they're broken you can start to make your own.
It's not ballet.
It's something new.
Are you sure you can go on? Absolutely.
