Step Up 2 The Streets Page #4

They lost an amazing dancer.

You should just start your own crew.

No, you can't just start your own crew.

- Why not?

- Because you can't.

- Besides, who would be in it? Me and...

- Me.

- Us.

- OK. We'll just start our own crew.

What else you gonna do?

Nobody here is gonna step out

of their perfect world.

Not the Sophie Donovans, but

there's a lot going on under the radar.

Really?

There's this guy we call Hair.

He's this half hippy,

half rhythmic rebel

and he makes the sickest beats.

Teachers don't know

what to do with him.

Can't put him in a class, gets bored,

makes up his own steps.

There's Kido. She's this

foreign exchange student

obsessed with old-school

American hip hop.

And, trust me, she doesn't need

English to speak our language.

Fly's the quiet one,

but not when the music's on.

She's too tall to partner, but when

you're that good, who needs a partner?

Which brings us to Monster,

our resident stunt double.

He flips, he slides, he falls.

Whatever you need to make

an action sequence work onstage.

But he never gets the spotlight.

Most know my boy, Cable,

as the video yearbook editor.

But little do they know,

he's one of the best freestyle dancers

I've seen in my life.

And, finally, Smiles.

Nicest guy you'll ever meet.

Dopest dancer on the dance floor.

Unfortunately, MSA only sees

what it wants to see.

- Don't forget Moose.

- Moose?

- Yeah, trust me on this one.

- Come on.

But what makes you

think they'll do it?

They all have nothing to lose.

No!

You guys, listen up. Check it out.

Now, I know each and every one

of you knows what it's like

to be forced to conform

and become an MSA robot, right?

Yeah, they wanted me to cut my hair.

Yeah, and fix my teeth.

- I like your teeth.

- Thank you.

I like your accent.

What kind of accent?

The accent you have.

You have an accent.

- I have no accent.

- It's really strong.

That's my point.

I know that each one of you guys

has an amazing talent

that this school doesn't know

what to do with.

I think it's time we do

something with that talent.

- Like what?

- Like form a crew

and compete at The Streets.

- No, no!

- I heard it's dangerous.

Forget about what you heard.

The Streets is about the best dance

crew showing off what they got.

- We don't stand a chance.

- What are you talking about?

I've seen you do stunts

in the school play.

There's a reason

they call you Monster.

Like this?

- That was hot.

- That's crazy.

Kido, you went crazy at the showcase

after-party last year.

Oh, that was fun.

Hey, hey, hey, hey hey, hey.

- Get it, Kido.

- She won't... She won't stop.

She won't stop, she won't.

You need to stop.

- So when is it?

- That's the thing.

Nobody knows when or where

until a text message of the night of.

So we have got to be ready.

Sounds good. Director Collins'd

never let us rehearse here.

- No way.

- Who said Director Collins has to know?

- Wow.

- He's got the keys.

Borrowed and copied.

MSA after hours. I like it.

Yeah! Oh, man, we did good.

What do you say we go

and check out our competition?

All right,

let's get it started right now!

Whoo! Oh, man! Put your hands up.

Put your hands up. I see you, baby!

Want your mama again?

Hey, yo, Leesh.

Leesh, look, look, look, look.

- Andie's here.

- Where?

Right there.

She shouldn't be.

Yo, what you doing here, man?

Oh, please don't tell me

that's your new crew.

- No.

- Yeah, we're her crew.

Getting ready to battle at The Streets.

What street, Sesame Street?

- What do you know about The Streets?

- Why don't you back off?

We're just here

to check a few things out.

This is how you've been wasting

your time, with these losers?

Why don't you do your thing?

We're gonna do ours.

You got a thing that you do?

Why don't you show us now, homeboy?

- All right, let's go.

- Yeah, let's go.

Hey, yo, DJ Sand!

Drop that beat, homey.

Looks like we've got new fish in town.

Let's clear the dance floor.

See what they talking about.

Now, you come into my house,

you recognize what's going on.

Don't step in that circle

if you ain't got it.

When do we start?

Five. Start on five when I start.

The music's playing already.

Dance to the music.

That's not how we do it here.

This ain't High School Musical.

That's how you dance?

Your mama taught you that?

We don't dance like that.

That's what you learned

at your special school?

Boo! Quit it!

That's atrocious.

That's it. No more.

No more.

What in the hell was that?

That's how you dance?

I'll tell you what.

We gonna show you

how we really get down.

Y'all pick up a keychain

on the way out.

Tell your mama not to be late

picking you up from work.

You guys are garbage!

Lets get it. Four-one-oh,

can we get it started?

Let's get it started. Here we go.

Four-one-oh, forget them.

Let's get it.

That's what I'm talking about.

See how they entertaining?

That's how we do it.

You can't learn that in school!

Let's just...

Let's just regroup tomorrow.

Come on.

Guys, come on.

This is one performance.

Guys, come on.

This is one performance.

You can't let it get you down.

We didn't work

this hard to just give up.

Shouldn't have

went there in the first place.

We looked like idiots.

Chase, the choreography

wasn't right for this.

No, it wasn't.

I'm telling you.

- Hey.

- It's cool. I know her.

What are you doing here?

Things got out of hand last night.

Yeah. Thanks for your support.

Look, I'm sorry.

What they did to you was wrong.

- But you should know that I quit.

- What?

Yeah. They're on such

a power trip. I refuse.

I thought we were supposed

to be about family.

And it just wasn't

the same without you.

But, look, I miss you.

I haven't seen you in that long.

My family's having

a barbeque this Saturday.

Why don't you come through?

- So that's why you came by?

- Yeah.

You know, Felicia is going to

trip if she knows you're here.

Felicia should be the last

of your worries right now.

I swear, we're really not that bad.

Really. Come on.

Hey, you guys,

this is my girl, Missy.

She's here to, uh... help us out.

Help us out?

We bombed last night.

Our respect

went out the window.

Sure did.

Hold up, hold up, hold up.

What are y'all talking about,

respect went out the window?

Like respect is going?

You can always get it back.

What are you all thinking

for The Prank?

What's The Prank?

Yo, D, you ain't tell them

about The Prank?

The Prank is what the crews do to show

they're competing for The Streets.

It's a public declaration

saying that you're bringing it.

The crazier it is, the better.

For proof you gotta record it

and post it online.

Then it spreads like wildfire.

And if you guys hit it like I know

you can, y'all get your respect back.

I got an idea.

Watch this, watch this! Oh-ho!

Been runnin' that ball

on him all day, son.

That's what I'm talkin' about.

- Yo, man.

- Yo!

Why's my crib smell like Funyuns,

broccoli and ball sweat?
