Like that.

Relax them.

Who are you shooting?

Relax them.

This is so stupid.

CARLA:

Tina, let's just finish it.

It's not stupid, Tina.

Okay, look,

I studied the show.

All the past winners

are well-rounded.

This will help us.

Right.

And with this new style,

it's like we've

been dipped in culture.

That's one thing I know

the 718 doesn't have.

Culture.

(SOFTLY) Dipped.

Dipped in culture.

I don't think so.

BRANDON:
Come on,

it's a good thing.

This stuff will help us.

Come on.

Fine.

LYRIC:
Quit whining.

TINA:
Stop.

(PEOPLE CHEERING)

Pick me!

MAN:
That's it!

Let's go now!

(CHEERING)

I said, "My brothers"!

Break it down.

ALL:
Uh!

ALL:
A-G-T. Strike step!

ALL:
Ah!

ALL:
Get down!

ALL:
Get down!

ALL:
Get down!

ALL; Lets get funky!

ALL; Lets get funky!

Welcome to

the Dance Battle Zone.

(AUDIENCE CHEERS)

Number 542?

That's us, 542.

You're up next.

Come on, guys.

We can do this.

I can't believe they let

Luis sit in on auditions.

Just ignore him.

Let's see.

HD Crew, right?

You're out of

the Honey Daniels Center.

Is that what

the HD stands for?

No.

No, it stands for "High Def."

Like, clear.

In your face.

JONAS:
Well, Honey

Daniels is amazing.

Y'all have got some

big, big shoes to fill.

I could tell you righi now,

you're just wasting your time.

JONAS; What, you

know them, Luis?

LUIS:
Just her.

She couldn't quite

cut it with our crew,

So l cut her loose.

Why you got to lie?

Yo, can we get this

audition going, or what?

(LAUGHS)

Yes, you can.

I do love

the drama, though.

Let's do it!

All right.

Come on, y'all.

I'm going to

show you.

(GIRL SINGING)

(HIP HOP BEATS)

(ALL LAUGHING)

Thank you,

but it's a "no," kids.

KATRINA:
Sorry.

Maybe next year.

You guys are wack.

(LAUGHING)

I tried to tell you, Maria,

You're just not good enough.

And those two new dancers ain't

going to save you either.

Now, beat it.

MAN:
Get out of here. Get out.

Beat it!

No!

NO,

Sweetie, don't make this

difficult on yourself.

We're doing it again.

JONAS:

Well, well, well.

Now, this just got

more interesting.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(PANNNG)

Listen, we've decided

that because of your dancing

and the obvious tension between

you and my boy Luis here,

that this should make

for great television.

HD, welcome to

the Battle Zone.

(ALL SCREAM JOYOUSLY)

Thank you.

Thank you.

We did it.

That was insane.

It was nuts.

Not just the way

we made the show,

but the way you

stood up to those judges.

I mean, you were like, "Hell no!

Y'all are going to check us out!"

Okay, I just wanted our crew

to have a fair shot.

I give you

mad props for that.

We finally feel like

a real crew, you know?

And that wouldn't have

happened if it wasn't for you.

I respect that.

You're welcome.

You can take that one to them.

I'll get the other one.

Okay.

Make them save me

a slice, though,

I will.

I'm in.

So, where's Brandon at?

I texted him.

He must still be taking his finals.

Finals? He could've skipped

those to come celebrate, man.

You don't skip finals, bro.

That's why they call them finals,

The boy is trying to

get his edu-macation on.

That don't make him any

different than the rest of us.

We all just want to

dance for a living.

Yeah, but we don't all have

filthy rich parents like he does.

What are you

talking about?

His family owns

half Of Texas.

You didn't know?

His family makes the Hiltons

look like the Hammers.

(LAUGHING)

Can't touch this.

Really Really?

He's good

with kids, too.

He teaches a class

with kids?

Yeah. Once a week.

You didn't know

that either?

What do you know?

Let me ask you

a serious question.

Do y'all actually ever talk or just bone?

She just be like...

Shake it, baby!

Yo, Carla.

Check it out.

CARLAI Oh, uh-uh.

She is about to be

sleeping with the enemy.

Good stuff today.

Thank you.

Watching you move

was amazing.

Stop it.

Hey, I'm serious.

Tina, is he

bothering you?

No, he was just telling me how

much he liked our audition.

No, I said I like

your audition.

You're the one who brings

the heat to this group.

Tina, did he tell you that

you're too good for us

and that you should be

dancing with his crew?

Yeah, he did, but...

Tina, he's trying

to play you.

Hey, calm down.

I told him I would stay with the HDS.

Well, good.

But you act like I ain't even

good enough to dance with them.

I didn't say that.

Sounds like that's

what she's saying to me.

MARIA:
You know what?

Stop starting trouble.

Leave our crew alone.

Tina, are you going to

let her dis you like that?

I mean, I know if someone

in my crew called me out,

we'd battle on the spot.

Wow! I am not calling her out.

And if we're going to battle,

we're going to do it as a crew

and take your sorry ass out.

And what's stopping you?

What's stopping you?

(LAUGHS MOCKINGLY)

See that, Tina?

She's scared.

She's scared!

If you were on the 718, baby,

you wouldn't run from nothing.

Whatever.

Maria, we got to

do this, okay?

We're finally getting some props,

and it's time to back it up.

Tina, are you sure?

Yeah, I'm as sure as you

were in that audition.

That's pretty sure.

Tina's right. If we aren't going to

knock heads, we got to do something.

Hell, yeah!

That's what I'm saying.

Yeah.

Mmm?

Fine.

Let's battle.

Yes,

Let's go.

LYRIC:
Yeah, they

ain't got sh*t on us.

GIRL:
Yeah, baby!

(WHOOPING AND CLAMORING)

Come on!

Let's go, HD!

Come on!

Let's see

what you got.

Yeah!

What do you know

about that?

GIRL; That's right!

That's right!

That's it! Let;s go!

What? Yeah, you!

What? You ain't nothing!

You ain't nobody!

And you ain't got no beat!

Yeah, Darnell! What?

HD!

Come on!

That's the best

you got?

No way!

Get out of my face!

LUIS:
Fall back!

it's over.

Back up.

It's over.

HD, you all suck!

That's it!

MAN 1:

HD, hit the road.

GIRL 2:
The 718 killed it!

MAN 2:
Yo, HD is wack!

Hit the bricks!

Go home.

Pack it up.

MAN 3:

GIRL 2:

Go home, HD!

You call this a crew?

Are you serious?

And you actually think you're going

to take us out on Battle Zone?

(SCOFFS)

Toys.

Tina, when you're

ready to grow up,

come holler at your boy.

Yo, I was wrong.

We ain't no damn crew.

We're just some posers.

Tina, we tried...

But our try wasn't good enough,

ain't never good enough!

We got humiliated!

Nobody is going to

respect us after this.

Nobody!

Wait, Tina!

Leave me alone!

Tina!

Tina!

(CROWD JEERING)

You're late.

Do I have to remind you

what time your curfew is?

I know what time

my curfew is,

You know what?

We made rules

in this house,

and they are going to

have to be followed.

Or what? You're going to

send me back to juvie? Fine.

What is the matter

with you?

I'm just sick of trying.

I try and live by your rules.

I try and stay

out of trouble.

I try and join

a new crew.

And nothing works.

Well, it doesn't mean

you have to give up.

Save it.

I'm going to bed.
