The Cutting Edge 3: Chasing the Dream Page #3

Damn, I like you, I like you

But a really want her

She's that type

I can tell

Let me get in too deep

Take her back to the hotel

Side to side

Elbows up

Side to side

I lean like a cholo

Side to side

Elbows up

Side to side

I lean like a cholo

Side to side

Elbows up

Side to side

Fingers on the track

So when are you really going to start

working with them?

I'm not.

When Zack comes to his senses

and finds a reaI partner, we'll talk.

You should work your quads more.

Skating really stresses them.

Trust me, I'm in a kinesiology program

at the junior college.

Thought I might like to work

with some big, bad pro athletes one day.

Yeah? Like me?

I wouldn't call dressing up

like Ken and Barbie "bad. "

- Is that your press?

- Probably mostly for you.

I hope they don't think I'm your girlfriend.

- What do I say?

- Doesn't matter, as long as you smile.

Hi, WIXB news, can we have

a little chat for your fans?

- Thank you so much. Right over here.

- Of course.

- So, how's the training going?

- You know, it's coming along.

We've been at it a couple weeks now.

Starting to figure out the timing...

We'll be ready.

- Are you nervous about the competition?

- I'm not his girlfriend.

Press. Pain in the butt.

Yeah, but you know,

she looks pretty good.

My prized ice shark has found himself

a new piece of meat.

Not a particularly choice cut,

if you ask me.

- Hey, that's my sister you're talking about.

- Spare me the not-with-my-sister routine.

Whoa, whoa! Whoa! Come again?

Is this where we do the macho?

- Oh, you mean like the dance?

- Yeah, sure, how about if I lead, huh?

Bobby, Bobby. Bobby, don't!

- Come on! Come on! Bring it on!

- This is WIX...

Hey, you really don't want to

get into it with him.

Oh, I see. Is this where you protect

your future brother-in-law?

- This isn't cooI.

- Let go of me!

- Chill.

- You know what?

- We're through.

- What?

I told you this was going to be a disaster,

but you never listen to me.

So, you want to throw

your career away, you do it.

But do it without me.

Life's been too easy for you, young man.

You never had to work

for it like the rest of us.

That's why you'll never put it

all on the line, Zack.

I shouldn't have wasted my time with you.

Come on, Celeste. I'll take you home.

Get the camera out of my face.

Did you get it?

Hi, this is Bryan. Leave a message.

So, did you get the twin turbos

with the 18" wheels?

- Yup.

- Me, too.

Beep, beep!

By the way,

my brother said to tell you thanks

for breaking things up the other day.

He's really sorry

for how things turned out.

No, that's all right. Bryan was asking

for it. It was long overdue.

Wait, what are we doing here?

Looking for a gold medaI.

Sabrina, no, no, no. Honey.

No, no, no, no. Don't pull AbigaiI down

when you're gonna fall down.

That makes both of you fall down.

Jackie.

Well, well.

What has it been, five years since Torino?

And Zack Conroy finally sees

he can't live without me.

Hi.

Or not.

Alex, meet Jackie Dorsey.

Your new coach.

I'm sorry, what? Yeah, well...

I'm not a coach.

- Oh, no worries. She's not a figure skater.

- Hey!

You know, I'm going to go play

with the big kids.

- Okay? Yeah?

- Okay, go.

She's getting there.

We just need some help.

Jack, you don't want to be

teaching kids to do T-stops

- for the rest of your life, do you?

- As a matter of fact I do.

After my marriage and the injuries,

these kids saved my life.

- Hi!

- That was some showstopper with Bryan.

ESPN's been playing it so much

that you should probably

be getting royalties.

So you're not entirely surprised to see us?

No, and I was prepared

to turn you down flat,

but seeing you here, and her...

- I'm more than a little curious.

- Yeah?

- So, you're a hockey player.

- Yeah.

So's my dad.

- Dorsey. Doug Dorsey! He's your dad?

- Mmm-hmm.

Great hockey player.

Yeah, he was

a pretty good figure skater, too.

Because he had a great coach.

- You really think you can do this?

- Well, with your help, who knows?

Come on, Jack, do it for the old man.

He was an outsider, and he became great.

It's not about being great anymore, Zack.

You have to be perfect.

And what? I mean, what are you guys

going to do for a routine?

- Nationals are in, like, ten minutes.

- Five, actually.

I actually know all the routines from the

last three Olympics. I memorized them all.

You guys have to work seven days a week,

and long hours,

if you have any chance of getting

on the ice in Miami.

I want you breathing, eating,

everything but sleeping together,

from now untiI nationals.

That's what my mom

and my dad had to do.

And let me emphasize

the "not sleeping together" part.

Well, Zack's more than welcome to move

into the restaurant and don't worry.

My brother will make sure

he doesn't do any sleeping.

- Sorry.

- So?

It's a hockey thing.

Come on.

Talk to me, can you turn me on?

If I give it to you will you play me on?

- Hey.

- Yeah?

- You did good in there today.

- Thanks.

Oh, these routines...

- Have I seen these?

- No.

Not yet.

If you talk to me

Will you turn me on?

If I give it to you

Will you play me on?

That sure is a pretty car you have.

Yeah, and I think

it looked especially sporty

behind that shiny new tow truck.

If I give it to you

Will you turn me on?

Hit it hard, come on

12.;30 is still kind of early

For to slide in

Hit the bar and order strong Islands

Rum and Coke

For my other folks

There's a freak on the other side

so that you know

So, thanks for the ride.

You live here?

- Yeah, do you want to come in?

- Yeah!

Grab your gym bag, we'll go for a run.

Wow.

Yeah.

How do you like it?

Cozy.

You can change in the bathroom

if you want.

Where?

There's five of them. Take your pick.

I share a closet with my brother,

and this kid's got five bathrooms.

All this belongs to your family?

My grandfather.

He and I are all that's left

since I lost my parents.

I read about that online.

- You were three?

- Yeah.

Too young to remember.

Most of my childhood revolves

around places, not people, anyway.

You know, big houses, city apartments,

hotels and uniformed help.

- Are you and your grandfather close?

- About 15 miles.

He flies in and out in his chopper.

I wave as he passes.

You're looking tired.

I hope you don't mind me

being nosy, but your girlfriend.

Is she okay with what we're doing?

You know that's hype about us

being a couple. That was a long time ago.

Zack, I know what my eyes tell me.

And she cares for you

as more than just a friend.

Well,

your partner is more than a friend.

You sweat and hurt,

and win and lose together.

And, most of all, you have to trust

each other with your lives.

But that's just coming

from a spoiled rich kid,

so what do I know?

Where you going, huh?

What, do you think you can outrun me?

- Zack! I'm warning you...

- What?

No! No!

- It's cold!

- Freezing! No heater.

Here.

Thanks.
