I can't believe that in two weeks

I better get hit by a car.

- What?

Nothing is going too well.

But, besides DTV have best.

I mean, I've never dreamt that

in million years I'll have a boyfriend.

Who is your boyfriend?

- I didn't mean that ... Oh, God.

Look, if you talked to your boyfriend,

just you gonna have to tell him to flack.

Cause you gonna be with

me every night this week.

So, are we in this thing together, ha?

- You sure are.

Bye....Bye.

Sister.

I've got a rising emotions

Spirit is lighting a fire

I've got my body in motion

Gonna have what I desire

I'm giving in to the sound

Giving in to the magic I've found

And it's breaking me free

I can fly

I can go forever

I run and jump and

I break away

I can fly

Now I'm stronger than ever

I'm gonna reach for the sky.

No one ever showed me how

But look at me now

I can fly

ALL DANCERS:

Contest this Saturday

Get wardrobe approved

by Carol

It's a free dance

If you just take a chance

You can fly

Flying so high

I can fly

I can go forever

I run and jump and

I break away

I can fly

Now I'm stronger than ever

I'm taking hold of my life

No one ever showed me how

But look at me now

I can fly...I can fly...

I can fly

I can go forever

I want to reach for the sky!

Cause no one ever showed me how

But look at me now

I can fly!

Can not sleep?

- Oh, God!

Daddy, you are really ...

Don't do that.

Go ahead. Sit down.

Anyway, why don't you are in your PJs'?

Its after midnight.

I was dreaming that I was

gonna be late for school.

So, I woke up and I got dressed

and then I looked at the clock.

Yea, but you wear uniform at

school. That's not uniform.

In my dream, I went at public school.

Janey, your mother and I've been talking...

We thought that this weekend

we send you to St. Louis

on the plane to see yor grandmother.

No! - I think it's just

what doctor ordered.

Not this weekend!

- Why not?

This is See 1:
30 transport

leaving on Saturday.

Don't you wanna see your grandmother?

- Yea. Sure I do.

See, I have to study this weekend.

There's really big Latin test on Monday.

And I am way, way behind.

Since when you've taken Latin?

Since last week, which is

why I'm way behind.

But, thanks anyway, dad.

I have to get to bed again.

Good night.

What are you? Crazy?

I hope you were hurt.

I am J.P. Sands.

- Yea, I know.

Why didn't you recognize me,

without blueberry pie in my hair?

Will you be in big hurry?

- Yea, a kind of.

When I about was in your age, I

worked in bottling factory.

I own the factory now.

In the matter fact, a lot of factories,

and including the one

where your father works.

Very happy for you.

Don't smart mall be.

You and I are lot more

alike then you think.

I bet you don't want your father

won't loose his job, any more then

I don't want my daughter

to loose that dance contest.

By the way, if you'd like to come to

my Country Club again, let me know.

I'd always know how

to use that catty.

Hi! What's wrong? - Nothing's wrong.

What's wrong with you?

Nothing. I just thought you were late.

Excuse me, I didn't realize we are

punching the clock.

Come on, today is our last day.

- Not now. Please.

Alrigt. No problem.

Let's get to work. Give a tape?

No, I forgot it.

- Come on, Jeff. That's not funny.

Look, I am telling you I forgot the tape.

But think about things besides

the stupid contest, you know.

Alright. So we don't need music anyway.

Let's go through the routine.

You wanna warm up first?

Would you quit treating

me like you're star dancer?

And I am some poor little

one got stucked with?

Not everyone needs to warm up.

- Yes, they do.

Excuse me I forgot also that

you're authorty I am warming up.

Look, I don't know whats bugging you,

but I think we should talk about it.

I said no.

I am not dancing with you,

until you calm down.

What do you - threaten me now?

I mean, that's what you do it, right?

Well, forget it! I'm sick of this

whole thing anyway!

God, you are so naive, Janey!

You think we gonna win this thing?

We're not gonna win.

Only to be in that stupid

contest to make look fair.

But it's rigged. Everything is rigged.

So, what? You're just gonna quit?

I mean, just like that?

Yeah, looks that way, doesn't it?

Get out of here.

You make me sick.

Thanks. I'll try to return

compliments some day.

Young lady, you are in big trouble!

- Robert! Robert!

Now, Janey, we have to know

why you lied about Latin class

and then you skipped your

choir practice, and now,

you sneak out of the house

without the permission?

Why?

- I do not know.

I feel much better now

when you explained.

You can't go streets in strange

city in the middle of the night.

I am sorry if you

don't understand that.

Why does everybody think that

I'm not understand anything?

You are grounded! - Yeah, I don't

have any place to go anyway.

What's the matter?

- Nothing.

Dance contest is tonight, isn't it?

Don't be nervous.

I'm not nervous.

I'm not entering.

Oh, why not?

Maggie said that you and

your partner were ...

"in dimension beyond reality."

I guees that means you're good.

Look. I am not in the contest, alright?

There are people who are be No.1

- Oh, and you're not in to be number one?

No.

- Jeff...

I heard that you came up in the

World, making in Country Club see?

How did you hear about that?

- Bad news travels fast...

Specially ones that

happens to J.P. Sands.

I hate him!

- Do not say that.

He is a greedy stupid part scrated,

but...don't hate him.

I ran into him last night.

Well, what did he say?

- He said he could put your job on the line.

Is that true?

So what?

- So, I can't dance in the contest, can I?

Look, Jeff. Tell me one thing: can you win?

- Yeah. I can win.

Well, then win it!

I'll worry about Sands.

Okay?

- Thanks, pap.

- Bid it, Zach.

Okay. But you didn't ask

me about the Maggie.

Maggie Malene? - She told me

to tell you Jeff is gonna dance.

Oh, God. I forgot I am grounded.
