Go go go...

[crowd cheering]

They're killing it.

[Middle-Eastern music playing]

[crowd applauding]

[instrumental music]

You don't even need me

as we know

So you just leave me

this way...

I-I-I I can do

I can do without

I can do without

I can do it I can do it

I can do without

I can do without

I can deal with you

I can deal with you

I can do without

Hey

[crowd cheering, applauding]

- [whistling]

- Whoo!

[man on PA] Just waiting

for the final scores.

And the grand champion winner

is Eclipse All-Star Cheer.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have

a new championship team.

ACC have been eclipsed.

Two-time champions ACC

have been beaten.

- [grunting]

- [crowd cheering]

[man on PA] The presentations

will commence shortly.

How did this even happen?

Because they're really good.

Not as good as us.

Whose side are you on anyway?

I'm with the judges.

They won fair and square.

How can you say that after

everything I've done for you?

Oh, come on, Charlotte.

You're not exactly

the one with the brains.

You would never have left

that stupid gymnastics team

if I hadn't orchestrated

on getting you all out.

What are you talking about?

ACC. The A is for Abi.

It's my team.

I'm the one that even suggested

we form a cheer squad.

I set us up with the fundings,

which you lost.

I made sure

we only had the best,

and now it's over.

You guys are nothing without me.

[scoffs] You know what, Abi?

Hannah was right about you.

You really are awful.

And I'm not gonna

take it anymore.

Fine. We don't need you anymore.

Right, guys?

I don't need any of you.

[man on PA] Come on up,

Eclipse All-Star Cheer,

to collect

the champions trophy.

[cheering]

[Emma] So that's how our team

went from hot mess

to Australia's

hottest cheer squad.

Well, soon-to-be.

[crowd applauding]

[sighs] Congratulations.

Thanks. We have a great team.

Look, I'm not gonna

beat around the bush.

You guys were right.

- We want to combine teams.

- What?

Listen, Abi is gone. Okay?

And none of us have any interest

in being part

of a team like that again.

We wanna go bigger. Nationals.

But our team is too small,

and, frankly, so is yours.

If either of us

want a shot at placing,

we have to combine forces.

No way.

After everything you've done...

Hannah... she's right.

If we wanna go to nationals,

we need to double

the size of our team.

And they all have to be pros.

I mean, where else

are we gonna find that?

Em, it's Charlotte.

This whole time

we've been trying to beat her.

I know, and [chuckles] we did.

And I mean,

now that it's all done,

maybe it's time that we extended

our family a little bit.

But I'm not gonna do it

unless you're okay with it.

I mean, unless you guys

are all okay with it.

But Emma is captain.

Twenty-three!

- Almost a full team.

- [Caitlin] Twenty-three?

- That's enough to win nationals.

- [all cheering]

[Emma] Until we take nationals,

at least I have someone

to take my breath away

and a best friend

to watch my back.

Dad turned down his promotion

in California

and requested an extended

assignment in Adelaide.

I think he's learning

that letting other people

into your life

has its advantages.

I was really glad

I didn't have to say goodbye

to my new family,

but I've learned

that goodbyes aren't forever.

So until we meet again,

goodbye,

sayonara,

auf wiedersehen, ciao,

zaijian, cheers and hooroo

from Down Under.

'Cause I can't wait

for the day that you find me

And I can't wait for love

The thought of you near boy

Is driving me crazy

And I can't wait for love

And I'll wait forever

You and me together o-o-oh

I can't wait

for the day that you find me

And I can't wait for love

First day first kiss

Thinking about

what's coming next

You make me feel

I could fly

If I don't jump

I'll never know

I'll go any way you go

A magic carpet ride

It's a fairytale

Like make-believe

And happy endings

of some silver screen

When you take my hand

And say come with me

To a secret place

It's real not a fantasy

'Cause I can't wait

for the day that you find me

And I can't wait for love

The thought of you near boy

Is driving me crazy

And I can't wait for love

And I'll wait forever

You and me together o-o-oh

I can't wait

for the day that you find me

And I can't wait for love

Oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh

Oh-oh-oh oh oh oh

oh-oh oh oh

Oh-oh-oh oh oh oh

oh-oh oh oh

Oh-oh-oh oh oh oh

oh-oh oh oh

Oh-oh-oh oh oh oh

oh-oh oh oh

Oh-oh-oh oh oh oh

oh-oh oh oh

Oh-oh-oh oh oh oh

oh-oh oh oh

Oh-oh-oh oh oh oh oh-oh

I can't wait

'Cause I can't wait

for the day that you find me

And I can't wait for love

The thought of you near boy

Is driving me crazy

And I can't wait for love

And I'll wait forever

You and me together o-o-oh

I can't wait

for the day that you find me

And I can't wait for love
