( music playing )
Stop!
Can I go to the bathroom now?
Fine.
Ellie, get your head in the game.
The Dance Regional Expo is tomorrow night
and we have to show Power Surge what they're up against.
And what is that exactly?
What are you doing here?
You can't dance and you can't tell time?
It's 4:01. That means practice is over.
- Our turn now. - It's 4:01?
I gotta go. Bye.
We were just finishing anyway.
We saw.
( laughing )
To be fair, we did only have the gym booked till 4:00.
But, guys, we can't worry about them.
We just need to focus
on doing our best tomorrow night.
Exactly. What else can we do?
Uh, stake them out and steal their moves?
- That's it! - What? No.
No, no time to talk.
We've got a plan.
This is not going to end well.
( school bell rings )
Hey, you better not screw up the chorus this weekend.
- I can't wait for the show. - Me either.
Uh, hey, that singer you told us about, is she gonna make it?
Yeah, um, I'm still waiting on that.
A new vocalist would totally slay, right?
Yeah, a new vocalist you're totally into.
- That's besides the point. - Whatever.
- As long as she can sing. - Awesome.
Okay, one, two, three.
( guitar playing )
Dude, tomorrow night?
Heat Wave, that new teen club?
The hottest girls are gonna be there.
I can't. Tomorrow night's the dance expo.
Rehearsals start really early.
Dude, it's not like you're a dancer.
- But I committed. - That's your decision.
You're right, that is my decision.
So, what do you want to do about the Power Surge girls?
You and I hide in the cafeteria
and use your-- what's it called again?
Zoom lens?
A leg up in the competition. I love it!
It's been way too long since our last
Birdie and Rooney scheme.
But wait, who's gonna run rehearsal?
- Uh... - ( footsteps )
Hey, I've been thinking,
and I kind of want to run dance rehearsals tomorrow.
Problem solved.
Where is Birdie?
She's out on a secret mission.
Because those never backfire.
It's gonna be great. I'm here to help you all win.
Yeah, because you've always
been so committed to everybody on the team.
Rhyme, I'm serious about this.
But, no, actually, how late is this gonna go?
- Why? - Nothing, I just need to be somewhere later.
Five, six, seven, eight!
One, two, three, hold four.
Five, six, seven, eight.
One, two, three, hold four!
Five, six, seven, eight.
Let's just take it from the top.
Quinn, go get us waters.
I'm not taking orders from you.
That's how it was with Birdie.
She was always such a dictator.
That's why my sister quit, and that's why I had to quit.
Was I really that bad?
Whatever.
Birdie: Okay, squad, listen up.
The only way we're only going to crush Power Surge
is by listening to me.
Do exactly as I say.
Practice starts now.
- Let's go! - Wait.
We've been practicing for a very long time.
Oh, I'm sorry. Do you have something better to do?
Yeah. Actually, I have somewhere to be.
If that's the case, you better leave now.
Wait, really? Is this some kind of trick?
Get lost!
Do you think this is about Henry?
I've been meaning to talk to her.
I think it's about something else entirely.
( music playing )
( no audible dialogue )
I made it.
Ellie, you came.
What are you-- what are you gonna sing?
Oh, I don't know
if I'm actually gonna sing in front of anyone.
Wait, you blew off the dance
just to come watch from the sidelines?
Yeah, I'm just gonna cheer you guys on from here.
Ellie, I love your voice, and I know the audience
will love you, too, but suit yourself.
I'll see you in a bit.
Woman on PA:
Please take a seat,
as the competition will begin shortly.
Where's Ellie?
Um, you sent her away from rehearsal.
Well, I changed my mind. Get her here now.
We can do the dance without her.
It's just the expo, not the competition.
Just the expo? Just the expo?
Somebody call her.
Both: She doesn't have a phone.
Up next, the defending champions,
Power Surge.

You call yourselves the Chicken Girls?
More like a bunch of headless chickens.
We did the best we could.
If that was your best,
you should both quit right now.
You're being so intense.
Really? Rooney chose the newspaper over us.
Quinn chose Power Surge over us.
Ellie chose who know what over us.
I'm trying to hold this team together.
Well, you're not doing a very good job of that.
Why didn't you tell us we were stealing their moves?
Because I wanted to win!
Crowd: Power Surge, Power Surge, Power Surge...
Hey, little bro,
am I really as much of a "B"
as everyone thinks?
I really don't want to answer that.
I'll be right there.
Hey, Rhyme.
I know things didn't go too well,
but I'm still proud of you for how hard you tried.
Thanks.
You know, Ace invited me to this teen club
and he said a lot of girls are gonna be there.
Wait, what?
Yeah, he really hyped it up.
Why on Earth are you telling me this?
Um--
Man: Rhyme! Let's go!
- I gotta go. - Uh, wait.
I just wanted to say I chose not to go
because I wanted to be with the dance team.
TK! Let's go!
Hey, we have one slot left. Do you wanna give it a try?
It's okay, I don't think anyone
really wants to hear me sing.
That's not true. I wanna hear you sing.
You came!
Wait, how did you even know?
I stole the flyer from your bag.
How was the expo? Is Birdie gonna kill me?
Don't ask, and definitely yes.
But you could make it up to me
and just go out there and sing.
I believe in you.
Hey, sorry, I don't mean to interrupt,
but time's ticking.
Come on, you got it. You can do this.
Okay, I'm in.
