Like their coach Bryan Hemmings, she insists he takes a temporary partner to go on to the national championship, his ticket to the world championship in Paris. Zach and his temper discard all candidates from the circuit, but after an alteration with an ice hockey amateur team he shares to ice with to train, he sets his mind on their only girl, taco joint daughter-waitress Alejandra 'Alex' Delgado. She's unacceptable to Hemmings, who dumps Zach and starts an affair with Celeste, whom he finds another partner.

Do it again

Tell me what you're waiting for

Oh, you're such a hottie

Turning your body on the dance floor

Girl, you know you got it

Gonna make you feel

feel all right

God, it's such a feeling

When you get with me, baby

See a girl across the room

And you know that you

Got my attention

I gotta mention

I'm feeling you, baby

Thinking that maybe

we could spend some time

Girl, you

Girl, you know you want it

Come and get it

Tell me what you're waiting for

Oh, you're such a hottie

We're here at the Pan Pacifics in Tokyo,

where Bright and Halyard

are flawless, Rob.

- I could not agree with you more, Lori.

- ... you more, Lori.

- Looks like another nail-biter.

- Looks like another naiI-biter.

ROB ON TV.; But what else is new?

But what else is new?

Night is young and we've just begun to see

ROB ON TV.; Oh, look at this.

Big marks for Bright and Halyard.

Feeling you baby

Thinking that maybe

Only Zack Conroy

and Celeste Mercier can catch them.

And speaking of which,

it's America's gold-medaI hopefuls,

Zack and Celeste.

And it's showtime.

One more time

I'm feeling you, baby

Thinking that maybe

it's time for us to go, girl

Come on, Zack. Let's go.

Let me guess.

- You had company last night?

- And some fun it was.

All she wanted to do

was talk about skating.

Really? Now, that's a big surprise.

ROB ON TV.; And so, the gold

medal goes to Bright and Halyard.

- They are the Pan Pacific's...

Second.

I hate second.

Well, I hate second, too.

But come nationals,

we're gonna be right there, you know?

Oh, my God!

My ass is sagging. Look!

Looks good to me.

Let's go.

Tell me what you're waiting for

Oh, you're such a hottie

Turning your body on the dance floor

Dance, you know you want it

Come and get it

I'll make you feel all right

Gonna set you free, baby

Baby, gonna dance all night

Zack, I love you.

Get back.

I believe this just about

sums things up, kids.

Yes? No? Anyone?

Jason and Cindy cannot beat you again

in Miami.

- They won't.

- Well, they did in Tokyo.

Forget Tokyo.

They were flawless, we weren't.

If we execute, we win.

Not with the routine we're skating.

Here we go again.

"They're tired, they're old, they're boring. "

We've just skated it too long.

- Yeah?

- We gotta do something...

- Less boring?

Funny. Bryan doesn't think I'm boring.

That's because he's busy

trying to get in your pants.

I'm serious.

Bryan's routines are not just dull for me.

You deserve more.

- You mean you deserve more.

- I mean we deserve more.

What "we"?

We're over and that's fine. But this?

This is business.

Pretending to be America's Sweethearts?

It's a joke.

Maybe, but it pays the bills.

When did it become all about the money?

We used to be a team. A great team.

Always a team.

I'm so sick of this.

I want to get back to how it used to be.

Me, too.

Good.

Try something with me.

Do you trust me?

Absolutely.

Yeah, I'll call you back.

Zack, I'm not ready! Zack!

No!

Celeste?

She's hurt!

No, I want Hickman waiting for us

at the hospitaI when we get there.

Can we get a bit of privacy here? Please.

What'd they say?

They think it's a fractured ankle.

So that's two months in a cast, and...

A few more in rehab.

So there goes nationals.

- I...

- No, it was me.

I was stupid, and out of position.

I should've stopped, but I just froze.

I was going too fast. I was...

I was pushing you too hard.

What you said to me,

about us always being a team?

That was about the sweetest thing

anyone has ever said to me.

Ever.

Yeah. It's not good.

Finally

Your day begins

Empty thoughts

Willing to pretend

I understand. Of course.

See you at the nationals. Yeah.

Well, he's not a singles skater.

I know.

He needs a partner.

He's a dangerous skater, Celeste.

He's always pushing it.

It's a miracle something like this

didn't happen sooner.

Thank God it wasn't any worse.

No, he's not dangerous. He's brilliant.

But you got a fractured ankle,

and I can't find anyone else

willing to partner up with him.

I don't believe that.

Trust me, Celeste.

I made the calls.

And I just want to know...

Come on.

Let's get you

to that doctor's appointment.

And I just want to say

That you're all right

And I just want to hear

You laughing

And I just want to see

Your smile again

Hey! You son of a b*tch! Are you blind?

If you're looking for a dancing partner,

there, mamacita,

- I don't swing that way.

- This is my ice till 5:00.

Was your ice.

I don't care if your grandfather owns

the joint. We got it booked.

- I swear...

- What?

That's all you got to say, man?

Tell you what, there, cara de queso.

Since you're not too strong on apologies,

I say we put it on the ice.

Then we'll see who's really sorry, huh?

Let's go.

- Let's do it.

- Come on.

Bounce if you wanna

Just bounce and bounce

And move if you wanna

Just move, and move

So all the B-boy's B-girls

Hit the floor

Bounce if you wanna

Just bounce and bounce

And move if you wanna

Just move, and move

Come on, B-boy's B-girls

Hit the floor

Here we go now

Let's go, let's go

If I can do it, you can do it

If you can do it, they can do it

If we can do it, what we doing

Let's start moving

Bounce if you wanna

Just bounce and bounce

And move if you wanna

Just move, and move

So all the B-boy's B-girls

Hit the floor

Here we go now

Let's go, let's go

Bounce if you wanna

Just bounce and bounce

And move if you wanna

Just move, and move

Come on, B-boy's B-girls

Hit the floor

Here we go now

Let's go, let's go

Is that all you got?

Who are you, boy?

And what is your point?

Who are you, you...

Who are you, boy?

And what is your point?

Who are you, boy?

Who are you, you...

Who are you, boy?

And what is your point?

Who are you, boy?

And what is your point?

Who are you, boy?

Don't look back down

Who are you?

What's wrong with you?

Hey, get... Get off me!

- She's got good form.

- Yeah.

You guys are wasting your time.

We're just looking, okay?

You don't see me asking you

to skate with any of them, do you?

Not yet.

Okay, what the hell's

that supposed to mean?

Please forgive me, Zack,

for trying to further your career.

You really want me to skate

with someone else?

It's the only thing that makes sense.

Okay,

and if we go to nationals and qualify,

what do I do with this new partner?

Well.

It may not be such a problem.

At least, not with her.

Oh, no.

Not the bad-assed Russian bimbo.

Misha is the only one not afraid

to skate with you, Zack.

She called when she heard

about what happened with Celeste.

It appears as though

she wants to leave Rudy.

I contacted her people,

and it can be worked out.

She's the only truly qualified candidate,

and she doesn't create a problem

with my transition back.

I get healthy, she moves on.

She's a godsend.

No.

She's a misanthropic man-eater

who neutered poor Rudy,

and I am in no way volunteering

to take his place.

There. Look. You see what she's saying?
