We'll put together our own act.

What a team... the 3 of you,

and me as manager.

She ain't no street dancer.

She knows nothin'

about what we do.

She can learn.

Yeah? How?

You can teach me.

We're asking for trouble.

Man, now I know

we're in trouble.

Hey, let's go celebrate.

Lunch is on me.

No, I'll treat.

No, I want to treat.

No, I'll treat, OK?

All right. There you go.

Thank you.

I'd like to make a toast.

To the best.

To our friendship.

Are you a dancer?

Yeah. I'm one of

those guys that...

Dancer, my ass.

You look more like freaks to me.

Looks like their mama

never taught them how to dress.

Hey, don't listen to him.

Come on.

Yeah. Now, that's what

I call dancin' music.

Hey, why don't you come

over here and dance with us?

Yeah. Here's a quarter.

Oh, yeah?

You laughin' at me?

- Shut up, you little runt.

- Yo, man! What's up?

Are you lookin' for a fight?

I'm right behind you.

What about the check?

This is fun!

Let's go wreck another place.

Well, I can't say it was dull.

Well, I'll walk you

to your door.

Who is this from?

Hold onto it a minute.

- How sweet of him!

- Him?

Your boyfriend?

No, my agent... James.

He can do a lot for us,

you know?

Well, I was thinking...

that maybe...

See you tomorrow, OK?

Sure.

- Good night.

- Good night, Kelly.

- Street dancing?!

- James, you don't understand.

Kelly, I'm aware of what it is.

It's just that I'm working

on getting you...

into one of the biggest

dance competitions...

which can lead

to incredible exposure...

and you're telling me

you want to be a street dancer.

Would you just let me

explain to you...

Kelly, you're wasting your time.

You've got to think

about your future.

We're building a career.

You can't make a living

dancing in the street.

I never thought you would

be so narrow-minded.

Kelly, I'm not.

It's just that

you've got to be serious.

Street dancing belongs

on the street.

It won't get you to Broadway.

Well, we won't know that

until we give it a shot.

Kelly, I hate

to tell you this...

Why not?

You know why everybody's afraid?

It's because

they don't understand it.

It's not just kids dancing

on a street corner for a nickel.

They put more heart

and soul into their work...

than any dancer I know.

James, it's real. It's fresh.

All I'm saying is...

James, just get us

into the contest...

and I guarantee you we'll win.

All right, now, let me

get this straight. Humor me.

You want me to put

you and your...

street-dancing friends

on the same stage...

as trained,

professional dancers?

Well, come see

for yourself, then.

We're going against

Electro Rock tonight.

Electro... what?

Electro Rock.

We got a score to settle.

This time,

we're gonna cut 'em bad.

You're... really talking

like a street person.

- You packing a blade?

- Yeah.

OK. I'll go.

Where the hell is she?

Don't worry about it, man.

She'll be here.

Hey, punk.

Hey, are you back

for more, fool?

Yeah, and wearing

rags like that...

I hope you'll be able

to back it up.

Yeah, and you know it.

Kelly, I...

Maybe you're

a little overdressed.

Don't worry about it. Come on.

James, I'd like you

to meet my friends.

- This is Adam.

- Hello, Adam.

- Hi.

- And Turbo.

Turbo.

- And this is Ozone.

- Hi, Ozone.

James came to watch us dance.

I don't dance for

anybody but myself.

Oh, yeah, punk?

Yeah, I know

what you're thinkin'.

You feel lucky?

Now.

Be cool, all right?

You bad? You want some of this?

You know, you do what you want,

man, but don't touch me.

You must be feeling

lucky tonight.

Now.

Don't worry about it. Just go

over there and watch us dance.

Kelly...

Go, girl! Go! Do it!

Why don't you go

keep James company?

All right. Go work 'em, Kelly!

Right on.

Oh, wow! What is this?

That's the girl from the beach.

That's good.

Kelly!

Man, you were great.

I couldn't believe it.

Unbelievable. You guys,

I want to tell you...

Amazing. Just fantastic.

Turbo.

Yeah, you got to teach me

that sometime.

Ozone, the way you dance is...

it's incredible.

Thanks, man.

It was great meeting you all.

All right? Thank you.

Kelly... you were...

you were right.

It was just phenomenal.

- Well, I'm glad you liked it.

- I did.

Hey, listen, if you want

to spend time with them...

then I totally understand.

No, it's OK.

I just need to talk to them.

All right.

Hey, let's go celebrate.

Listen, I would really love to,

but I really got to go.

- You're not gonna stay with us?

- Well, I came with James, so...

We did really great tonight,

you guys! That was fun!

See you tomorrow.

- Yeah?

- It's me.

The door is open.

How you doing?

I'm all right.

We sure tore the place up

last night, didn't we?

We did OK.

James thinks we really

have something.

He says that we have one of

the hottest acts around.

- Oh, did he, now?

- Yeah. That's why I dropped by.

He told me about

this big dance contest...

and there's gonna be judges

from all over the country there.

It's really big!

Are you kidding?

Those dudes don't want...

to have nothin'

to do with our kind.

What do you mean? We're good.

That's all that counts.

Oh, yeah?

Well, you know what I think?

I think we'll be

wasting our time.

Those dudes don't want

to give us the chance.

Actually, he's working

on it right now.

He's got some really

great connections...

and he can get us the chance.

He's really a nice guy,

and he's trying to help us out.

I've never needed anybody,

and I don't need them now.

If those dudes want to see us

dance, have them come down here.

Or maybe they're afraid

of getting raped or mugged.

I really don't understand you.

I mean, this could be

a really big break for us.

Who knows what it could lead to?

I don't care!

I have everything

I want right here.

But if that's what you want,

Kelly, then you do it.

Nobody's stopping you.

Yeah, but...

Well, James has invited

everybody over.

He's gonna have

this little party...

and you guys are

supposed to be there.

Well, here's his address.

You guys are welcome

to come if you want to.

- Are you ready?

- Yeah.

Hello, Max. Good to see you.

Thanks for coming.

And then you brought...

Susan, right?

Nice to see you.

Will you excuse me?

Hello. How are you?

Kelly! You made it.

- Hi, James.

- Hello.

- You look fantastic.

- Thank you.

This is really nice.

Where's Ozone and Turbo?

Are they coming?

They had some

other commitments...

but they're going

to try and make it later.

Good. Good, because I've got so

many people I want you to meet.

I've been talking you up

like crazy here.

So come this way.

- You got to meet these people.

- OK. Great.

- Sofie!

- James.

Hi. This is the dancer

I was telling you about.

Kelly Bennett,

this is Sofie Cunningham...

a very gifted choreographer.

- Happy to meet you, Kelly.

- Nice meeting you.

Kelly is a client

and a very close friend.

Look at these fancy cars.

You sure we're invited?

Oh, there they are.
