Step Up Revolution Page #4

It's time for protest art.

Anderson Global Properties

is pitching the project

to the city council in a week.

They have to have the council's approval

to move forward, so...

I think we should join them.

So we're gonna mob the meeting?

I'm down.

How do you know all this?

City council meetings are public record.

And there's this space-age device

called the Internet now.

Think about it.

Instead of just getting hits,

we can make a statement.

I'm listening. What's the plan?

Well, we're gonna need some more dancers.

All right, folks. Let's take our seats.

I really appreciate everyone being here.

I'm excited about what we have to show you.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is Bob Cooper.

Bob is a partner of Cooper and Mackey,

one of the largest

marketing firms in the U.S.

Bob has agreed to personally oversee

the campaign for our new development.

It's my pleasure.

He'll lay out a detailed plan for us in a sec,

but first I'd like to direct your attention

to our plan to renovate the riverside.

Okay...

Folks, we should probably step outside.

Just file out. I'm sure it's nothing

to be too concerned about.

I apologize for this.

I don't know if it's a drill or not,

but we'll get to the bottom of it.

Follow me.

We'll just do what they need us to do

and get back up there.

Great tie, by the way.

What the hell's going on here, Trip?

There's no need to film this.

Should we be worried about this, Trip?

No. Not at all.

Just a bunch of stupid kids.

A bunch of stupid kids did that?

Yeah.

The flash mob

was apparently targeting a meeting

between the city council and members

of Anderson Global Properties.

Mom, look, it's Sean.

Are you sure?

Yeah, he's doing the "ocean motion."

All indications

are that the video is quickly going viral

turning these local art vigilantes

into something of a cultural phenomenon.

Sean... Guys. You're not gonna believe this.

Another million hits in less than two hours.

We're up to 6,000,000 hits.

If you love dance,

you are going to love this next story.

I've just seen this video, and all I can

tell you is, in one word, amazing.

I've never seen anything like this before.

The video was posted to YouTube

and has quickly gone viral,

thrusting these mysterious

artists into the spotlight.

And it's quickly becoming

an Internet sensation.

And before we announce the winner...

Have you guys seen this viral

video by The Mob? It's huge!

Another developing story

we're following today...

And it seems to be picking up steam.

Everyone is talking about this,

so I have to bring it up-

Who knows about The Mob?

This neighborhood is all I've ever known.

She was born here, we live here,

we don't plan on leaving.

For you guys to do what you did for me,

my family, families like mine...

You gave us a voice,

and we're just so thankful for that.

Don't know what I can say but thank you.

We are so thankful, huh?

- Yes.

- Yeah.

What about this rogue Miami flash mob

stirring up all kinds of trouble?

A lot of celebrities are tweeting

this week about The Mob.

Have you seen this video

about these kids in Miami?

I'll tell you one thing that makes sense in

any language, the art of dance.

Ten million hits!

I am in! Yes!

With the public rallying

behind The Mob's cause,

support for Anderson is crumbling.

The latest polls of the council suggest

that if the vote were taken today,

Anderson's project would not be approved.

Nice. Yes, Emily, better.

Take your time.

Good.

I've got you.

I love it.

You have nothing to worry about.

The audition's gonna be great.

I really appreciate all your help.

Your dad say anything

about the city council Mob?

No. But it definitely worked.

I can tell it shook him up.

He'd freak out if he knew I was involved.

You don't feel bad

sabotaging your dad's development?

How else are we supposed

to stop my big, horrible, greedy father

from destroying

your beautiful neighborhood?

No, I do feel guilty.

But as much as I love my father,

there's a thousand other places my dad

could stick some nauseating luxury hotel.

He'll be fine. Trust me.

How are things between you guys?

He has some big gala he's making me go to.

And Trip asked me to be his date.

He thinks I'm some way

to get closer to my dad.

Of course I said no.

But, I just wish you could go.

I'm sure I'll be there.

Of course, I'll be on the other side

of the table with a drink tray.

Can we do it a few more times?

I don't know...

Just one more time.

I think there's something else

that's a little more fun we could do.

- Come on. Let's do it.

- No, no.

Yes.

Can I come in?

So how is everything

with the dance company?

Good. I've got my final audition

in a couple of days.

Wow.

Good luck.

Thanks.

- Is everything okay?

- Yeah.

It's been a rough couple of days.

Glad I've still got you on my side.

Emily and Dad against the world. Right?

Right.

I'll let you get some sleep.

Good night, sweetie.

Good night, Dad.

Man, this better be important.

I was playing that new Call of Duty

and kicking some ass!

I was just about to make the moves on her

and I got the call.

What up, Eddy?

What did you want to show us?

Where's Sean?

Here, take a look.

I found their rehearsal footage.

He would freak out

if he knew I was involved.

You don't feel bad sabotaging

your dad's development?

How else are we supposed to stop

my big, horrible, greedy father

from destroying

your beautiful neighborhood?

- Are you sure?

- I looked her up.

Emily Anderson. She's his daughter.

- That's crazy.

- What?

Maybe we should call Sean

and get to the bottom of it.

No.

No.

I've got a better idea.

It's going to be a big crowd tonight.

I think it will be good for us both.

There's my beautiful daughter. Excuse me.

I'm so glad you came, Emily.

You look beautiful.

Thank you.

What do you think?

Didn't Trip do a great job with all this?

Shall we?

I'd like to thank everyone for being here.

Now, with no further ado,

the man responsible

for the city's latest beautification project,

Mr. Bill Anderson.

Thank you, Trip.

Thank you all.

I'd like to extend a very special welcome

to the great Mayor of Miami,

my good friend, Donald Hernandez.

All of us at Anderson Global Properties

look forward to a long working relationship

with the city council

and the entire Spring Gardens community.

And now, the moment

you've all been waiting for.

I'd like to present to you El Frente Del Rio.

I think we're having

some technical difficulties.

Why don't we cut the video?

Please cut the video.

- Call the police.

- Already done.

You don't feel bad

sabotaging your dad's development?

How else are we supposed to stop

my big, horrible, greedy father

from destroying

your beautiful neighborhood?

Emily?

He would freak out

if he knew I was involved.

Freak out if he knew I was involved.

My big, horrible, greedy,

greedy-greedy father...

How else are we supposed

to stop my greedy, greedy...
