They're very talented. You

really should see them dance.

It takes more than talent.

You got to be tough.

Now, you...

You've got the talent.

Head up.

Caress me. More passion.

Take the floor. Dance.

Dance... across the floor.

That's it. Now, jump.

Come on, fly.

Feel it! Up.

That's it. Now you got it.

All right, over here.

More emotion. To the mirror.

Feel it. All right,

now turn around.

That's it.

What are you doing?!

Franco, stop!

- Kelly, I just...

- Just get away from me!

Go to hell!

Goddamn it!

I'd like to thank you

for this award.

It's the recognition

of my peers...

that makes all those agonizing

days of teaching Ozone...

everything I know that...

I don't want to stay here

all night. Do you?

Award winners don't push brooms.

Oh, yeah? Why don't you

go out and sweep, man?

Who do you think you are,

anyway... Fred Astaire?

Who?

Just go on and sweep,

knucklehead.

Hey, Turbo, did you

finish sweeping up?

- Yeah.

- You sure?

Yeah. You want to come

see for yourself?

All right, man.

Man, look at this stuff.

Look at that cup

right there, man.

Uh-oh. We've got company.

You guys are dirt, man.

We'll put you under.

Yeah. You're looking

at the piranha.

We're gonna eat you and...

spit out the pieces

we don't like.

Oh, yeah? Show me, man.

Come on, sucker, right now.

You want some?

Then come and get it.

Why don't you punks just split?

I think I hear

your mama calling you.

You don't like what you see?

Yeah, we're the dudes

gonna put you under.

Yeah. You're looking

at death, man.

You'll have to put a bag over

that face to hide the shame.

Anytime, man!

Friday night.

Be there...

unless you're chicken.

Hey, face, who are

you callin' chicken?

I won't blame you

if you don't show up...

'cause it's gonna be

real messy.

Oh, yeah...

and bring your girlfriend

the dancer...

'cause you're gonna need

a shoulder to cry on.

Come on.

Let's show those heifers.

Man, those dudes are whacked.

They don't deserve

the right to go against us.

But you heard them.

They called us chicken.

Well, those dudes will just

have to wait their turn...

now, won't they?

What about Friday?

We're not gonna back down.

Yeah, well, if those dudes

come Friday...

and they cross that line,

we're gonna cut 'em.

We're wasting our time, man,

on a bunch of nobodies.

You heard them.

They think they're so bad.

They're punks.

We don't got nothin' to prove.

Look, they put us down.

We can't go back on that.

Why not?

Man, everybody will bag

on us if we back down.

What are you worried about?

You're the best, right?

All right. Let's turn

these fools out, man.

Come on! Let's hit it.

Hi, Kelly.

Hi. Hope you didn't

come here to eat.

Oh, no way. I respect my body.

I've missed you in class lately.

Been busy. Has me working

double shifts now.

Franco's been acting a little

weird the last few days.

So what's so unusual about that?

- Well?

- Well, what?

Well, did anything

happen between you two?

No! I'm just ready for a change.

I feel my life getting stale.

Stale? Like that hamburger

if the customer doesn't get it.

Hey, Earring.

You gonna order something?

Yeah. I guess I'll have

the... Health Department.

My father just happens

to work for them.

This is the kind of place

that would make his mouth drool.

If you want anything,

it's on the house.

Thanks.

God damn. The earring prince

here thinks he...

- Adam! I do have some good news.

- And what's that?

I'm going to see an agent

about some work.

Kelly, that's great!

Maybe some of these years of

training will start to pay off.

Well, Kelly,

these pictures are very good.

You're very photogenic.

You want to get serious

about your dancing?

- Have you danced professionally?

- Well, once.

Did you ever see the "Dancing

Doggie" dog food commercial?

Let's just say you have

no professional experience.

I think we should pursue...

the dance possibilities

here in town.

Allow me to set up

a few auditions.

You can make the rounds,

get your feet wet.

- What do you think?

- Sounds great to me.

OK, so I'll set up a few

appointments this week.

We'll see you later, OK?

Thank you, Miss Bennett.

You were excellent.

Unfortunately, the part

calls for a tall blonde.

Thank you. You were excellent.

Unfortunately,

we're looking for...

A short brunette.

This isn't worth it.

Blonde, brunette...

if they're looking for hair...

why don't they look at gorillas?

Don't let it get to you, Kelly.

There will be more auditions.

Not for this girl.

I just don't know if this is

what I really want to do.

You know what you need?

You need to live a little.

Relax.

I need longer legs, shorter

legs, punk hair, no hair...

I just need a whole new life.

Well, if you need a whole new

life, I know just the place.

- Where's that?

- The Radiotron.

It's a place where street

dancers go to show their stuff.

Turbo and Ozone are

meeting me there tonight.

Ozone would love to see you.

After what happened

at Franco's class...

I'm the last person

he wants to see.

Now, that's not true.

- He asks about you all the time.

- Sure.

Hey! I could have used that.

Kelly, it was only

the first day.

There's nothing to be

discouraged about.

In fact, there are plenty

of auditions coming up.

As a matter of fact, there's

something big developing...

in the dance community

right now...

and I'm trying to get the facts.

Sounds great.

Kelly, are you OK? I mean,

you sound really down to me.

No, I'm all right.

Well, are you eating? Let me

treat you to dinner tonight.

I already have plans.

I promised some friends

I'd go watch them dance.

Well, if you need

anything at all...

you just give me a call, OK?

I mean, that's what

I'm here for.

Thanks, James.

I really appreciate your help.

It was my pleasure.

Have a good night, OK?

OK. Bye-bye.

Man!

You guys want us?

Then come and get us.

We wore them punks out!

We showed 'em.

We burned them dudes.

You're whacked, man. Fool!

What's the matter with you, man?

You know, there was something...

about the Radiotron

that was really different.

I mean, the people there

were real.

It was alive, you know?

It had an energy

that felt really good.

I was really surprised.

See? I told you

that's what you needed.

You were right... just this time.

Man, shut that thing off.

- What?

- Turn it off.

What's bugging you?

They beat us, man.

Don't you understand?

They just caught us off guard.

- So where am I going?

- Right over here.

What's she doing here?

Hey, man, help me

clean up this mess.

What's the big deal?

It's only a girl.

Just do it.

Fine!

Hi!

We just thought we'd come by

to see how you guys were doing.

That's cool. We're just

working on some new moves.

You guys were really

great last night.

They were just watching

the girl, not the dancing.

It was just a cheap shot.

I'd burn any girl that put

her face in front of me.

- She was good.

- I'm better.

Boy, do I have an idea!
