Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure Page #4

---

My girl and me

That's the best audition I've ever seen!

- Amazing! I weeped!

- Wept.

I wept!

- I wept!

- And not just regular weeping.

Theater weeping!

Amber Lee, what do you think?

Yes. Amber Lee, thoughts?

Wow...

We are so meant to be BFFs!

Wow! "Wow" is a word, right?

Right. Wow!

I just hope that the palpable chemistry

surging between you and I right now

like nuclear fusion won't in any way

influence your decision

towards our clearly superior audition.

How old are you?

Twelve.

I think I'm good.

And you, also!

Your dog...

Wow! Wow.

I know, right?

He's just saying hi.

Sharpay Evans of

the New Mexico Evans. I'm a mega fan.

Oh, you are not!

So am!

I am gonna tweet about you right now.

Shut up! I follow your tweets.

She did! She tweeted!

Okay, I don't know how

we're gonna decide. You're amazing!

All this and a grade school diploma.

And you, amazing! Wow.

I would be excited to work

with either one of you and your dogs.

And can I just say,

this is the opportunity of a lifetime

for me.

Because Broadway...

Broadway's not like film or television,

because with Broadway,

real people are watching.

- Wow.

- Me, too.

I am just so excited to be performing

on the Great White Way!

Not that I don't love all colors.

Well, I know both these talented dogs

want to work with you.

But only one can be in the show.

- How are we gonna decide?

- Wait.

How about we work with both dogs

during rehearsals?

Wait! How about we work with

both dogs during rehearsals!

That way I could see

which one I work best with.

- That sounds like a solution.

- We have a solution, people!

Can I just say

how totally great I think you are?

You do,

and I'll never wash my ears again.

You know what I think?

Well, of course you don't

because I just thought of it,

but I think they loved you!

I like the way you think!

And you're such a good singer.

And I would know.

- My album went triple platinum.

- Well, I've done quite a bit of theater.

It totally shows.

Listen, I'm gonna have my assistant

give you my phone number.

If there's anything that you need,

you just let me know, okay?

We girls gotta stick together, right?

- Here.

- Wow.

I mean, this is actually your number!

It looks like any ordinary number,

but it's not. It's yours!

- Oh, and, hey, may the best dog win!

- Thanks!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Can you believe it?

You were great!

Boi was great.

This new strategy just might work.

- Amber Lee really likes you, too.

- Is she awesome or what?

She inspires me. There. I said it.

Quelle inspired.

We are so gonna get that part.

- How do you know?

- Easy. I don't do rejection.

Sharpay!

I just wanted to wish you both luck.

Oh! That's so nice of you.

And suggest that you give up now,

while you still have your dignity.

Distant though it already might be.

Sorry, which Smurf are you again?

True, you have talent.

But you lack both the experience

and the finesse

to ever achieve

the Holy Grail of possibility.

- Yeah, but Boi is cuter.

- Countess is a theatrical ninja.

I'm sorry. For a minute there

you just bored me to death.

I have a foolproof strategy

of getting what I want.

See it, want it, have a fit, get it.

- Yeah, well, this playdate's over.

- I hope you enjoy rejection.

- We're gonna get that part.

- We're gonna destroy you.

- Bring it on.

- Oh, it's brought.

All right, Boi. This foot. That foot.

Good boy! Yeah!

Okay, let's try our next one. Stay.

Catch your tail. Catch your tail!

Good! Yeah, good.

Sit. Stay.

We are so going to take them on.

I'm not gonna let some hobbit

get in my way.

And, look.

All Boi can do is think about how

horrible that other little mangy dog was.

If you want success so badly,

then you will get it.

All you need is one shot

to make it happen.

Yeah, and this is my shot.

It's like my grandmother says.

"God only got one book published,

"and look how well it did for him."

Doing this is

all I've ever dreamed about,

especially since

I already have everything else.

Well, there's still humility.

What's wrong with being confident?

Confidence is

when you know you're good.

Arrogance is when you think

others know you're good.

Well, I want everyone to know I'm as

good as I think everyone thinks I am

without them knowing

I know they think it.

- And do you have to film everything?

- Yep, 'cause this is my shot.

If my professor loves my film,

he talks about it.

Then there's a buzz,

then it gets in a festival,

then it gets distribution,

then I'm signing a studio deal,

then I'm getting an Oscar.

I always knew I wanted to be an actress

the first time I produced and performed

the entire production of Snow White.

Full dance, musical numbers,

handmade costumes.

I made my brother play all the dwarfs.

Everyone in that pre-school

worshipped me.

I just want to wake up every morning

and be onstage.

Good morning!

Good morning, everyone.

- And welcome to the first rehearsal...

- Of the new Broadway musical.

A Girl's Best Friend!

And you are all amazing.

- No, you are!

- Him or me?

- You!

- No, you!

Me? Okay!

And heading our superb cast,

we are thrilled to welcome

one of the biggest stars around,

Amber Lee Adams!

Oh, stop!

- Yes!

- Guys, come on.

Can I just say that this,

this is the opportunity of a lifetime

for me.

Broadway's not like film or television,

because with Broadway, people can see

if you write your lines on your hands!

All right. Let's rehearse.

I want everybody downstairs with piano,

rehearsing the music

for the opening number.

Amber Lee and Judith,

I want you onstage

so we can block that first scene.

- Let's go!

- Let's go, people!

All right. Let's start with Boi.

Let's go!

What a perfect goodbye party.

Thank you, Mom!

I can't believe my little girl

is going out into the world on her own

for the first time.

I have to, Mom. And who knows,

maybe I'll find fame and fortune!

Actually, reverse that.

- Why is that funny?

- Well...

Because you'd rather have the...

I'll explain later. Just keep going.

There's only one thing

that breaks my heart.

Leaving Shelby behind.

Pick it up! Go, go!

A star is about to be born!

Shelby!

Oh!

What's in this envelope?

This very wet envelope.

- Again, I don't get that.

- Keep going.

Gasp!

Actually, that's a stage direction.

You gasp, you don't say "gasp."

Simple mistake. Keep going.

Shelby! Trying to run away

with my boarding pass

won't change the fact

that I'm leaving at 8:00 a.m.

6:
00 a.m.

Oh, Shelby.

This is the first time we'll be apart.

I wish I could just pack you up

in a widdle doggie bag.

Okay. Let's get Countess in there

and continue.

Don't worry, sweetheart.

Shelby and I will both be here

when you get back.

You're killing me.

Oh!

That is adorable!

You're right, Shelby!

Why not go with me?

Any place that doesn't want you,

I don't wanna be.

Let's see what New York

has in store for us together!

Good.

Let's talk about the scene a bit,
