good mom. Thanks for asking.

No problem, anytime.

Oh...

What?

Nothing.

You know, Isla had a great

floor routine and a perfect

vault, but she did take that step

after the dismount from her bars.

And, that's the difference

between Gold and Silver.

Yup.

Somebody's in a mood.

I'm not in a "mood".

You know, you've had your

pictures on the paper, too.

Yes, I know, Mom.

I especially liked the one of me

unconscious in the hospital.

You know, you were a lot

more pleasant

when you were unconscious.

Touch.

Ariana? Hey, I'll take you

in. My name's Michelle and I'll

be-okay. Uh, are you coming?

No, no, no. She's all

yours. Where's Brittany?

She's not here today. I'll be

putting you through the paces.

Aren't you a little young

to be a physical therapist?

I'm a physical therapy

resident, which means I'm in

training to become a P.T.

I was in training

once. Lot of good it did me.

Well let's see if we

can get you back on track.

Too easy to slip into

darkness sometimes

I'll be back in a second.

I find it hard to get the

light into this room

Let's break the door open Break

it wide open Break it wide open

You know, you could still

compete. I mean maybe not soon,

but if you want something you

have to fight hard for it.

And what if something I

really want is

no longer attainable?

Look, sometimes when the

front door gets slammed in your

face, you have to go

through the back door.

What if there is no back door?

Then go through a window.

There's always a way in. Ready?

I just need you to just trust

me, okay? One, two, three, up.

Okay, put your weight onto me.

Okay, take a step. Slowly..

We will come alive

Are you okay? And then you're

going to lean forward onto the

mat with your arms

and then push up.

The music never dies

Oh my gosh, wow.

How'd that feel, good?

Yeah.

Yeah, good.

Asthma.

We bring in the light

the music never dies

We bring in the light

the music never dies

We've been high and low pulls us

under light's beyond the door

Never let it go Won't let these

locked doors Shut me out anymore

I will break them down

Let the daylight show

Alright, so last time we did fifteen

steps, but I think we can beat that.

Without holding onto the railing.

It says here

that you should be able to walk

now on your own without help.

It says that?

Yup. It says your body's well

on the road to healing. But your

mind's still broken.

It does not say that. They

wouldn't put that in a chart.

Yes they would.

It's even in pen.

Let me see that.

Sorry, professional eyes only.

Well that rules you out,

resident! Give it to me.

No! And you just

did twenty steps.

Nicely done.

My leg is killing me.

Yeah, but for a

minute there you forgot.

Does it really say all

that stuff in my chart?

What's a six letter word

for stubborn? A-R-I-A-N-A.

Thank you for helping me

through all this. I owe you one.

Come. You did really good

and you should be very proud of

yourself. Maybe

thirty steps tomorrow?

Still have the letter that

you wrote

I wanna know what it says

but I don't So it stays,

Cuz I won't throw

it away just yet

I just don't think I'm

up for a visit today, mom.

You'll be fine. You're old

teammates have been asking about

you. You can't stay

away forever, you know.

Says who?

I better go move the car.

I don't want to get towed.

But wait, mom, I can't-

I'll be right back.

Hey coach.

Hey I'll see you guys in there.

Hey, welcome back, kid.

Great to be here. Are my

uneven bars ready and polished?

Well you know they've been

covered in dust

since you've been gone.

It's great to see you.

The gang will be so

excited to see you again.

Hey guys, listen

up. Ariana's here.

Hey, stop. Hey, hey, stop,

stop, stop. Where are you going?

You just got here.

I saw enough.

Huh?

Isla and Nate?

Come on, Ariana. It's

not what it looks like. He's

probably just congratulating

her for getting into UCLA.

She what?

Hey, what's uh, what's going on?

I'll give you guys

a minute. I'm sorry.

This isn't going to work.

What's going on?

I just want my life back.

Hey, you better get

ready, you're going out.

With who?

Michelle.

And you didn't think to tell me?

Of course not. That would

have given you more time to say

'No'.

Mom!

Come on, don't

want to disappoint her.

Welcome to Palace.

Hey Cashmere.

'Sup brother?

I get the feeling we're not

a physical therapy convention.

Where are we?

Girl, for all your whining

and complaining about your

boyfriend and your medals, have

you ever thought to ask me one

question about myself?

Michelle, my babe!

Hey!

Where you been?

Well besides making money to

pay for this place?

Picking up Ariana here.

Ah, you're the gymnast. Sorry

about your accident.

How you doing girl?

I've been better.

Wow.

Watch where you're wavin'

those on the dance floor, you'll

take someone's eye out.

Actually, there's one or two

guys I wouldn't mind

you wavin' those at.

What?!

She's kidding. Emma has

a strange sense of humour.

I won't be getting out on the

dance floor. What kind of party

is this, anyway? Is this a rave?

Darling, the '90's ended a

long time ago.

This is a session.

A session?

Adam! Step! We got

a lady on crutches!

Oh, you're Michelle's gymnast

friend from the hospital?

I'm not from the hospital.

Adam.

Ariana.

That's not right.

He's gonna be sore tomorrow.

Michelle. We up.

Who's up? What?

Come.

We get down

Get down

So, you post all

those videos online?

Yup. It's a good way to

promote.

We usually get a

few thousand hits.

Wow.

That's nothing. My goal is

to get a million hits one day.

So you're a champion dancer

who runs a studio, and does

physical therapy? And I

thought I was an overachiever.

I'm all about that hustle,

baby. So... can you help us?

Me? What could I

possibly help you with?

Well, there's this big

talent management company called

Crystal Image. They represent

the best of the best. They hold

auditions once a year, and

anyone who gets in with them, is

in with the money. Travel around

the world, be on TV, tour with

rock stars. You get the picture.

Auditions are coming up soon.

I still don't get what I can do.

Well, they're looking for a

dance crew with edge - some sort

of unique special skill, and

I was thinking since you have

Olympic level experience -

Michelle, first-off, I'm

not Olympic level. Second, I've

never danced hip-hop a day in my

life. And third, even if both of

those were the case, look at me.
