[SCHOOL BELL RINGS]
[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]
WHAT IS THIS?
I THINK IT'S PRETTY OBVIOUS.
TRANSLATION...WILL YOU BE MY DATE TO PROM?
DIDN'T WE ALREADY COORDINATE OUR OUTFITS?
JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION.
I WOULD BUT I CAN'T HEAR MYSELF SPEAK.
[TURNS MUSIC OFF]
SPENCER: HELL YEAH, GIRL. [OLIVIA LAUGHS]
WAIT, I ALREADY ASKED YOU TO PROM.
I MEAN, I AIN'T DO IT LIKE THIS.
WELL, NO, YOU ASKED ME TO
SOUTH CRENSHAW'S PROM, NOT BEVERLY'S.
AND WOMEN CAN MAKE BIG GESTURES, TOO.
YOU AIN'T GOT NO ARGUMENTS HERE.
AND FOR REAL, I CAN'T WAIT.
THIS PROM'S GONNA BE ALL ABOUT US.
SPENCER: NO DISTRACTIONS. OLIVIA: MM-MM.
NO HERO MOMENTS, EITHER.
DEAL.
I CANNOT WAIT FOR PROM TO BE DONE WITH.
MY MOM WON'T SHUT UP ABOUT WHO I'M TAKING.
WHO ARE YOU TAKING?
ASHER: NO ONE. JJ: BRO,
5 GIRLS SLID INTO MY DMs
ASKING ME TO PROM.
YOU CAN HAVE ONE OF THEM.
DID THEY REALLY SLIDE IN YOUR DMs
OR DID YOU SLIDE INTO THEIR DMs?
DUDE, SERIOUSLY? WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM?
PROM IS WASHED OUT, JJ.
HEY, HE'S JUST BITTER BECAUSE SIMONE BAILED.
OK, WELL, I'M DATELESS FOR MY SENIOR PROM.
ARE WE REALLY JUST GONNA BE MISERABLE
ON WHAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE ONE OF
THE GREATEST NIGHTS OF OUR LIVES?
JORDAN AND ASHER: YES.
BOY: HEY, HEY! GIRLS: AAH!
THIS DUDE REALLY LEANED INTO THE THEME.
HEY, I'LL SAY YES IF SHE DOESN'T.
LOOK AT THE DETAIL OF THIS.
THE TENTACLES! OH, MY GOD, GIVE ME A CLAW.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER] SPENCER: LISTEN UP, LISTEN UP. YO!
Y'ALL GOT UNTIL GRADUATION
TO DELIVER YOUR SENIOR SEND-OFF GIFT, YOU HEAR ME?
AIGHT, SO, THINK BIG.
WE WANT AN ICONIC MEMORY.
AND IT BETTER NOT BE NO LAME OLD HATS
LIKE TWO YEARS AGO, EITHER, 'CAUSE THEM WAS WACK.
BILLY: HE'S RIGHT. THE SENIOR GIFT--
A VERY IMPORTANT TRADITION
AT SOUTH CRENSHAW.
ONE I CAN STILL REMEMBER FROM MY TIME.
MOST SCHOOLS, THEY JUST GIVE THEIR GUYS
A TEAM PHOTO, CALL IT A DAY.
DON'T WORRY.
WE ALREADY GOT SOMETHING IN THE WORKS.
AIN'T THAT RIGHT, FELLAS?
BOYS: YES, SIR.
THIS IS GONNA BE ONE
FOR THE HISTORY BOOKS.
BOYS: YEAH.
BOY: I LIKE THE SOUND OF THAT.
MAN: ♪ I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE DOIN' ♪
WHAT'D I MISS?
HAVE A SEAT, GRACE JAMES.
WHOLE NAMES.
CANDLES.
DOWN ON ONE KNEE?
YEAH, NO, I--I SEE
HOW THIS LOOKS NOW.
WOULD YOU BE MY DATE TO PROM?
[LAUGHS] YES.
I WOULD LOVE TO.
COME HERE.
AND FOR THE RECORD,
WHEN I DO THROW THAT VIBE,
YOU'LL KNOW.
[CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]
[APPLAUSE]
JENN. WOW. I MEAN, I ASSUMED THAT YOU WERE GOOD
BUT NOT AMERICAN GRAND PRIX LEVEL.
I WISH.I BOMBED
MY GRAND PRIX AUDITION LAST YEAR.
HOW ARE YOUR FEET
NOT KILLING YOU RIGHT NOW?
I'VE BEEN TAKING BALLET SINCE I WAS 3.
BUT I INTENTIONALLY DIDN'T REALLY GO ALL OUT
SINCE I'VE GOT THIS BARRE MASTERCLASS IN 10 MINUTES.
MICHAELA DePRINCE IS TEACHING.
WELL, THAT'S GREAT FOR MICHAELA, BUT WE HAVE
THAT NA MEETING IN VIEW PARK.
MY BAD. MY DAYS ARE
RUNNING TOGETHER WITH THE SHOWCASE COMING UP.
THAT'S BEEN HAPPENING
A LOT THIS PAST MONTH.
I'LL PUT OUR NEXT MEETING IN MY CALENDAR
AND I'LL SET AN ALARM.
BUT, UH, CAN YOU STILL SIGN MY COURT ORDER?
MY PARENTS ARE NO JOKE
ABOUT ME STAYING ON TRACK.
THAT'S WHY MEETINGS ARE SO IMPORTANT.
I GOTTA GO. IT'S MICHAELA. LEGEND.
SHE'S COMPLETELY OBLIVIOUS TO HER SOBRIETY.
IT'S LIKE THE MORE I TRY TO BE THERE FOR HER,
THE MORE EXCUSES THAT SHE COMES UP WITH.
AND DON'T WORRY, OK?
I'M GONNA KEEP OUR NO-HERO PACT TOMORROW NIGHT.
THIS IS BIGGER THAN OUR PACT.
JENN'S IMPORTANT TO YOU.
SPONSORING'S JUST BEEN... REALLY HARD.
SO, WHAT'S YOUR GAME PLAN?
I MEAN, THAT'S THE THING.
LIKE, NOTHING'S WORKED.
I MEAN, NOT EVEN ME SHOWING UP
TO PHYSICALLY TAKE HER TO THE MEETING.
I CAN'T WANT HER SOBRIETY
MORE THAN SHE DOES.
WELL, YOU SAID HONESTY WORKED
FOR YOU BEFORE, SO,
WHY NOT LEAD WITH THAT, RIGHT?
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
JORDAN: I GOT IT.
DUDE, WHAT'S WITH THE OUTFIT?
BRUH. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF MY FITTING
WHEN I GOT A 911 TEXT.
911? WHO DIED?
MY DREAMS. APPARENTLY,
THE FIRE SPRINKLERS WENT OFF TONIGHT AT BEVERLY.
FOR, LIKE, HOURS. OUR GYM IS FLOODED.
OUR PROM IS CANCELLED. IT'S LITERALLY UNDER THE SEA.
I GOT A CORSAGE. BUBBLY.
I EVEN GOT A LITTLE SOMETHIN' SOMETHIN'
FOR THE AFTER PARTY PLANS.
WOW. I NEVER WOULDA THOUGHT THAT PROM
WOULDA GOT YOU SO HYPED, LIKE, EVER.
YOU THINK PEOPLE GONNA THINK IT'S WEIRD
THAT I'M AT PROM EVEN THOUGH
I DON'T GO TO SOUTH CRENSHAW NO MORE?
COOP, YOU ARE SOUTH CRENSHAW.
EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT. GED OR NOT.
I KNOW, BUT I--I JUST--
AMINA: YOU JUST DON'T GET IT.
HELP ME OUT AND MAYBE I CAN.
COOP: WHAT DON'T YOU GET?
I'M HAVING AN OMG THEMED PRINCESS TEA PARTY TONIGHT
AND ALL MY DAD BOUGHT ARE PRETZELS AND SOME
CRUSTY-LOOKING ORANGE JUICE FROM THE LIQUOR STORE.
PATIENCE: HA HA! PREACH: WHAT? THAT STUFF SMACKS.
YEAH, BACK WHEN WE WERE LITTLE.
COOP: LOOK, KIDS THESE DAYS, MAN,
THEY NEED THAT TOP-SHELF
ORANGE JUICE, OK? NO PULP.
AUNTIE COOP, WILL YOU HELP ME FIX MY PARTY?
COOP: YEAH. I GOT YOU.
OH, WAIT, WE WAS SUPPOSED
TO GO TO THE NAIL SALON,
BUT I MEAN, MINE STILL LOOK FRESH, SO,
IF IT'S COOL WITH YOU AND IT'S COOL WITH HER...
HMM. I MEAN, THIS PARTY SOUNDS LIKE
IT DOES NEED SOME SERIOUS HELP, BUT,
YEAH, IT'S COOL. YOU CAN GO AHEAD.
I GOTTA SET UP FOR PROM ANYWAY.
AND DON'T BE LATE,
SO WE CAN GET READY TOGETHER.
YOU MEAN DON'T BE LATE
TO WATCH YOU DO YOUR MAKEUP.
GIRL, JUST DON'T FORGET.
I WON'T. BUT YOU. I GOT YOU.
CAN I GET YOU ANYTHING ELSE?
UH, NO. I'M--I'M GOOD, THANKS.
UNLESS YOU HAVE A PROM DATE ON THE MENU.
AH, WE JUST STOPPED SERVING THAT.
LOW INVENTORY.
ASHER: AH. WOMAN: YEAH.
SO, AHH, YOU FIGURE OUT YOUR PROM DATE SITCH YET?
PROM IS CANCELLED, JJ.
JORDAN: ACTUALLY, I DON'T KNOW, MAN.
MY MOM WAS TALKING TO PRINCIPAL LONDON TODAY
AND THEY'RE WORKING ON SOMETHING.
THEY'RE GOIN' ALL OUT.
SO, GET THIS.
ONE OF THE GIRLS THAT SLID INTO MY DMs
IS PERFECT FOR YOU.
HER NAME'S ROXY. SHE'S HOT.
AND A GYMNAST. MM.
I'M GOOD, BRO. THANKS.
GUYS, PROM'S A RITE OF PASSAGE.
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO LOOK BACK IN 10 YEARS
AND WONDER WHY YOU DON'T HAVE ANY CRAZY STORIES
TO TELL YOUR KIDS?
[CELL PHONE CHIMING]
OH, I GOTTA TAKE THIS. IT'S SIMONE.
IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU NEED SOME CRAZY STORIES, JJ.
LOOK, I HAVE A DATE, ALL RIGHT?
WE JUST DON'T HAVE A PROM, SO.
YOU'VE BEEN HOLDIN' OUT ON ME?
WHO'S THE LUCKY GIRL?
ASHER: UH, IT'S-- WOMAN: ME.
JAYMEE. AND DON'T WORRY.
I'LL GIVE HIM PLENTY OF CRAZY STORIES TO REMEMBER.
NICE TO MEET YOU, JAYMEE.
THANK YOU.
NICE WORK, BRO.
YO, DEFINITELY BETTER THAN ROXY.
ONE SEC.
OH, MY GOSH.
ASHER: HEY. JAYMEE. JAYMEE: HEY.
YOU ARE A LIFESAVER. THANK YOU.
YEAH, DON'T MENTION IT, EXCEPT WHEN YOU'RE LEAVING MY TIP.
DO YOU RESCUE YOUR CUSTOMERS OFTEN
OR WAS I ESPECIALLY PATHETIC?
I STEP IN WHERE I'M NEEDED.
JUST THIS WEEK, I HELPED SOMEONE
OVERCOME THEIR FEAR OF HEIGHTS.
HOW'D YOU DO THAT?
BY PUSHING HIM OUT OF A PLANE.
BUT WE'RE NOT DOING THAT,
AND I CAN'T ACTUALLY GO TO PROM WITH YOU.
ASHER: WHY NOT? JAYMEE: LITTLE THING CALLED WORK.
AND DON'T FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO GO TO PROM
JUST BECAUSE EVERYONE SAYS THAT YOU DO.
JUST DO WHAT'S GONNA MAKE YOU HAPPY.
AFTER ALL, TOMORROW ISN'T GUARANTEED.
OH. SLOW DOWN THERE, SPEEDY GONZALES.
YOU NEARLY RAN ME OVER.
MY BAD, BRO. I'M IN A HURRY.
WHAT, YOU GOT A TEST OR SOMETHING?
NAH. ME AND PRINCIPAL CARTER.
BEVERLY'S PROM GOT CANCELLED, SO,
I'M GONNA ASK IF THEY CAN CRASH OURS.
BRUH, HE AIN'T THE ONE YOU GOTTA CONVINCE.
SPENCER: WHAT YOU MEAN? FRAUSTO: CHRIS.
HE GOT THIS WHOLE PROM
PLANNED DOWN TO THE LAST BALLOON.
THAT MAN IS LIKE PROMZILLA IN YEEZYS, FOR REAL.
ADDING ALL THOSE EXTRA BODIES
IS GONNA BE A LOGISTICAL NIGHTMARE.
HE'S GOT A GOOD POINT.
BESIDES, WE CAN'T AFFORD TO HOST THEM.
I ALREADY TALKED TO SLAUSON CAFE,
AND THEY'RE WILLING TO SPONSOR OUR CATERING
FOR THE DIFFERENCE IN PEOPLE.
BRUH, WE GOT TASTEFUL HORS D'OEUVRES
TO GO ALONG WITH OUR "STARRY NIGHT" THEME
AND YOU TRYING TO PAIR THAT WITH THOSE
BOOTLEG SPENCER JAMES SANDWICHES?
LOOK, THIS IS LIV AND JORDAN'S
PROM WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.
COACH BAKER'S KIDS. OUR FRIENDS.
WELL, TECHNICALLY, THOSE YOUR PEOPLE.
OH, IT'S LIKE THAT?
IT'D BE A SHAME FOR ANYONE TO
WALK AWAY FROM HIGH SCHOOL WITHOUT
ONE OF THEIR MOST IMPORTANT MEMORIES.
I KNOW WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE, SO...
IF SLAUSON'S DOWN TO HELP,
I DON'T SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.
AH, COME ON, CHRIS.
I KNOW YOU CAN PULL THIS TOGETHER.
YEAH, YOU DAMN STRAIGHT I CAN.
SO...
CHRIS: THEY CAN SHARE OUR PROM. SPENCER: YES!
I APPRECIATE YOU, DAWG.
YEAH, OK, BUT THEY HELPING US SET UP.
AIN'T NOTHING FOR FREE.
OH, WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT.
COMPROMISE AND CAPITALISM. NOTHING I LOVE MORE.
MAN: ♪ YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH ♪
'SUP, MAN?

WANDS. AUNTIE COOP EVEN TOOK ME

THESE GIRLS 'BOUT TO BE SET.
LOOK, I'M NOT GONNA LIE. I WOULDN'T HAVE
THOUGHT OF ANY OF THIS.
THIS IS SOLID, COOP. THANKS.[CELL PHONE CHIMES]
NO PROBLEM.
I WOULD LOVE TO STAY AND HANG WITH Y'ALL
BUT I AM LATE MEETING PATIENCE.
AUNTIE COOP, CAN WE ALL GET READY TOGETHER?
THAT WOULD BE SO FUN. PLEASE?
THEY GOTTA GET READY FOR THEIR BIG NIGHT, AMINA.
WE DON'T WANT TO BE CRAMPING THEIR STYLE.
I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE PATIENCE WOULD BE
DOWN WITH GETTING READY AT YOUR PLACE.
THEN WE ALL BECOME PRINCESSES TOGETHER.
PRINCESSES TOGETHER!
SERIOUSLY, WE OWE YOU GUYS
FOR LETTING US CRASH YOUR PROM.
I KNOW THIS MUST BE A PAIN IN THE ASS.
GIRL, NOT FOR ME, BUT
CHRIS, ON THE OTHER HAND,
HE'S...
OLIVIA: CUTE. PATIENCE: SPILL. WHAT'S UP?
LAYLA: SPILL WHAT? PATIENCE: JUST THE HOT GUY
WHO'S BEEN STARING AT YOU.
OK. RELAX.
HE'S JUST A PRODUCER FRIEND
WHO'S MANAGING THE DJ WE BOOKED.
UM, I DON'T KNOW. HE LOOKS LIKE
MORE THAN FRIEND MATERIAL.
OK. WHATEVER. IT'S ALL BUSINESS.
AND THAT'S A DAMN SHAME BECAUSE HE IS FINE.
[WHISPERS] He's coming, he's coming, he's coming.
MAN: HEY. LAYLA: HI.
SO, ANY LAST-MINUTE SONG REQUESTS
YOU WANT THE DJ TO PLAY?
LAYLA: UM...
PATIENCE: NO, LAYLA, ACTUALLY,
SHE WAS ASKING ABOUT--
YOU KNOW THAT SONG CALLED "MORE THAN FRIENDS"
BY EN VOGUE?
WE'RE GONNA-- EXCUSE US.
PATIENCE: SHE LOVES THAT ONE. [MAN CHUCKLES]
[BOTH LAUGH]
[CELL PHONE CHIMES]
STOP. STOP.
EVERYTHING GOOD?
YEAH. UH, JUST
WASTING MY TIME, APPARENTLY.
THANK YOU FOR GETTING THE DJ ON BOARD LAST MINUTE.
I OWE YOU ONE.
YEAH, YOU DO. HOW ABOUT
YOU PAY ME BACK WITH A KIM NITTY COLLAB

I WAS THINKING MORE ALONG THE LINES
OF FREE STUDIO TIME.
ONLY IF YOU COME WITH IT.
PROFESSIONALLY SPEAKING, OF COURSE.
COME ON, WE'RE BOTH THE HOTTEST PRODUCERS
IN THE GAME RIGHT NOW.
I WORK ALONE BUT
I'LL SEE YA AROUND.
BILLY: SOMEBODY'S GETTING READY FOR PROM.
YEAH. HEY, G.W. WHAT--WHAT'S THIS?
THEY WERE A GIFT FROM MY GRANDFATHER.
I LOANED THEM TO YOUR DAD FOR HIS PROM,
WHICH IS WHY I TAKE FULL CREDIT
FOR HOW SHARP HE LOOKED.
BILLY: OH, IS THAT SO? GRANDPA WILLIE: MM-HMM.
JORDAN: LET'S SEE IT. BILLY: YOU DON'T NEED THAT.
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
LET'S SEE THIS. OH, DAD.
DID YOU SHOW UP WITH A TOP HAT AND A PIMP CANE, TOO?
I DIDN'T NEED ALL THAT.
THEM LADIES WERE ALREADY STARING AT ME.
TELL 'EM, POP.
AH...NOT GONNA LIE.
MOST OF THAT NIGHT WAS A BLUR
WITH YOUR MOTHER'S HEALTH PROBLEMS AND ALL.
GRANDPA WILLIE: SORRY. BILLY: THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
IT'S ALL RIGHT. UM...
POP, HOW WOULD YOU FEEL ABOUT CHAPERONING AT THE PROM?
WE COULD USE THE HELP WITH ALL THE EXTRA KIDS
COMING FROM BEVERLY, RIGHT?
GRANDPA WILLIE: ARE YOU SERIOUS? BILLY: YEAH, MAN.
YOU COULD MAKE SOME NEW MEMORIES.
PLUS, WE COULD LET THEM KNOW HOW THE BAKER BOYS
BE TEARIN' UP THAT DANCE FLOOR, RIGHT?
[BILLY AND GRANDPA WILLIE LAUGH] GRANDPA WILLIE: SHOOT.
IT'S BEEN A MINUTE SINCE I
BUSTED A MOVE, YOU KNOW. I MEAN--
[GRUNTING]
IS THIS OK WITH YOU?
I MEAN, I KNOW IT'S YOUR SPECIAL NIGHT.
WHAT? WELL, WITH SIMONE GONE,
YOU'RE THE NEXT BEST THING, G.W.

DOWN THE STAIRS OR SOMETHING?
UH, NO, 'CAUSE THOSE ARE OLD TRADITIONS.
OK. WHAT ABOUT THIS OLD TRADITION?
I GUESS WE CAN MAKE AN EXCEPTION.
THERE IS ONE THING
THAT I NEED TO TAKE CARE OF FIRST.
I PROMISE IT'LL BE QUICK. OK?
AND THEN AFTER THAT, NO MORE DISTRACTIONS.
YOU MIGHT WANT TO CHANGE OUT OF THAT DRESS, GIRL.
[OLIVIA LAUGHS] SPENCER: COME ON.
THANKS FOR LETTING AUNTIE COOP HELP ME TODAY.
YEAH.
SOMEONE HAD TO SAVE THE TEA PARTY
FROM SOCIAL DEVASTATION.
I KNOW A LOT ABOUT THAT. TRUST ME.
MY DAD TRIES TO HELP, BUT
IT'S JUST NOT THE SAME.
COOP: AMINA SEEMS TO BE DOING A LOT BETTER.
YEAH, THE QUESTIONS ABOUT MO'S DEATH HAVE STOPPED.
THE SMILES HAVE GOTTEN BIGGER.
I JUST WANT HER TO HAVE A CHANCE AT
BEING A KID AGAIN.
I USED TO HELP MY MOM GET READY
WHENEVER SHE HAD A BIG MEETING OR TRIAL.
MUST BE PRETTY HARD WITHOUT HER, HUH?
I MISS HER A LOT.
I KNOW SHE WASN'T PERFECT, BUT
SHE WAS MY MOM.
YEAH, WELL, NO ONE'S REALLY PERFECT.
BUT WE LOVE THE PEOPLE WE LOVE ANYWAY.
LIKE AUNTIE COOP.
NOW, WHEN SHE LOVES YOU,
NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.
AND SHE WILL LITERALLY DO ANYTHING IN THE WORLD

NO HERO MOMENTS OR SAVIOR COMPLEXES OR DISTRACTIONS

AM I REALLY MISSING ALL THE ACTION, THOUGH?
I DON'T KNOW. PLUS, THESE STAIRS ARE,

MM. UM, ARE YOU SURE
YOU'RE COOL OUT HERE BY YOURSELF?
YOU'RE GONNA BAIL, AREN'T YOU?

YOU DANCED AT YOUR PROM.
ARE YOU ASKING ME TO DANCE?
DON'T MAKE ME REGRET IT. COME ON.
ALL RIGHT. OK.
SO, I...I SAW YOU WITH THAT PRODUCER GUY EARLIER.
WHAT'S UP WITH HIM? HE LEANS A LITTLE.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN "LEANS"?
HE LEANS INTO YOU.
A PERSONAL SPACE THING.
WELL, HE'S HARMLESS.
HE JUST WANTS TO WORK TOGETHER.
THAT LEAN HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WORK.
LOOK, WHATEVER. IT DOESN'T MATTER.
I SHUT HIM DOWN. I WORK SOLO.
BECAUSE YOU WANT TO OR BECAUSE YOU'RE SCARED?
UM...I DON'T KNOW.
I BARELY KNOW HIM.
DEFINITELY DON'T TRUST HIM.
I JUST MISSED SO MUCH WITH CARRIE.
HOW DO I KNOW THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN AGAIN?
I MEAN, WHEN CARRIE CAME INTO YOUR LIFE,
YOU WERE VULNERABLE, RIGHT?

NOW YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO ALL IN
ON EVERY RELATIONSHIP.

NOT TO TAKE LIFE TOO SERIOUSLY.
EVEN WHEN LIFE KEEPS REMINDING ME
JUST HOW SERIOUS IT CAN BE.
I RECENTLY GOT THAT REMINDER, TOO.
NO WONDER YOU DITCHED PROM
TO HANG WITH A STRANGER. [LAUGHS]
LET ME GUESS.
YOU'RE A REFORMED CONTROL FREAK
WHO'S HAD HIS LIFE PLANNED OUT
FROM THE MINUTE HE COULD...
HOLD A BASEBALL.
NO. WAIT. FOOTBALL.
OK. WOW. UM...UM... I'M IMPRESSED.
HOW DID YOU-- HOW DID YOU KNOW?
I USED TO BE YOU.
WELL, THE SWIM VERSION OF YOU.
WHAT HAPPENED?
LIFE REMINDED ME HOW SERIOUS IT CAN BE.
ALL RIGHT. I HOPE Y'ALL READY
TO HAVE Y'ALL NIGHT MADE.
THIS BETTER BE GOOD.
AND IT BETTER BE QUICK.
YEAH, MAN. I PUT A LOT OF WORK
INTO PROM.
JABARI: JUST MAKE SURE YOU REMEMBER HOW
EPIC THIS GIFT IS
WHEN YOU TELL GENERATIONS ABOUT US.
CHRIS: DAMN, Y'ALL REALLY COULDA JUST GOT US SOME HATS.
FRAUSTO: YEAH, SOCKS WOULDA BEEN COOL, TOO.
WE MAY HAVE BEEN ROBBED OF THE TITLE,
BUT NOW THE TROPHY'S RIGHT HERE AT HOME,
WHERE IT BELONGS.
[CHANTING] WE ARE THE CHAMPS.
[BOYS CHANTING] WE ARE THE CHAMPS.
SPENCER: ENOUGH!
IS THIS WHAT YOU THOUGHT WE MEANT
BY FIND A WAY TO HONOR US?
EVERY DECISION Y'ALL MAKE
REFLECTS THIS ENTIRE TEAM.
IS THIS REALLY HOW YOU WANT TO LEAD
NEXT YEAR'S JUNIORS?
BY PULLING DUMBASS PRANKS
THAT COULD LAND Y'ALL IN JAIL?
LOOK AT ME WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU.
THAT IS BEVERLY HILLS, FOOL.
THEY NOT GONNA TAKE THEY SCHOOL
BEING BROKEN INTO LIGHTLY.
WE BETTER THAN THIS.
YOU RIGHT.
AT THIS POINT, THERE'S REALLY NOTHING
LEFT TO SAY BUT, FOR REAL,
WE WEREN'T GONNA TRY TO KEEP THE TROPHY.
DON'T TRIP. WE'LL TAKE IT BACK.
WE'RE A TEAM.
WE GONNA TAKE IT BACK TOGETHER.
RIGHT NOW, BEFORE ANYBODY REALIZES IT'S MISSING.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE] AND NOW
IT IS MY HONOR TO ANNOUNCE
THIS YEAR'S PROM COURT.
WHERE IS SPENCER? IS HE SERIOUSLY ABOUT
TO MISS HIMSELF BEING NAMED PROM KING?
CARTER: YOUR PROM QUEEN AND PROM...QUEEN:
PATIENCE ROBINSON AND TAMIA COOPER.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU AS WELL.
UH...THANK YOU. [PATIENCE LAUGHS]
COOP: UH, I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT TO SAY.
I GUESS I'M KINDA SHOCKED.
HIGH SCHOOL WAS NEVER MY DREAM, BUT
THE FRIENDS THAT I'VE MADE HERE DEFINITELY ARE.
SO, THANK YOU.
I GUESS I CAN SAY AT THE END OF THE DAY,
A TRUE QUEEN CAN REIGN FROM ANYWHERE,
SO, WHOO! YES.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
OK, LET'S TAKE A PICTURE, OK?
[CAMERA'S SHUTTER CLICKS] WOMAN: ♪ WAVES PULL ME UNDER
IF I ASK YOU TO DANCE,
DOES THAT MEAN WE NEED TO GO TO THE ROOF?
LIVING IN THE MOMENT DOESN'T ALWAYS MEAN
LIVING ON THE EDGE.
THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW, 'CAUSE HEIGHTS
ARE REALLY NOT MY THING.
SO, I HAVE TO PUSH YOU OUT OF A PLANE, TOO?
ASHER: HARD PASS. [JAYMEE LAUGHS] OH, OK.
ASHER: HARD PASS. JAYMEE: OK. FINE.
[CELL PHONE CHIMES]
EXCUSE ME.
WOMAN: ♪ RIDING ON THE EBB AND FLOW ♪ [PLACES PHONE ON TABLE]
♪ I'M IN DEEP BUT I DON'T CARE
EVERYTHING GOOD?
YEAH, JUST, UM... PRETTY GREAT FRIEND.
AT PROM. [GIGGLES]
YEAH. AT PROM.
WOMAN: ♪ LET YOUR WAVES PULL ME UNDER ♪
WELL, THIS RESTAURANT ISN'T THE ONLY PLACE
THAT WE CAN DANCE.
THAT'S TRUE.
BUT IF WE LEAVE HERE AND DRIVE SOMEWHERE ELSE,
WON'T THAT TECHNICALLY MAKE IT A SECOND DATE?
I GUESS IT WOULD. [CHUCKLES]
GIVE ME 7 MINUTES TO SHUT THIS PLACE DOWN.
YEAH.
WOMAN: ♪ I WANNA DROWN
♪ IN AN OCEAN OF YOU
♪ IN AN OCEAN OF YOU ♪
TIME FOR ME TO CALL IT A NIGHT.
BILLY: AWW!
ONE OF THE BEST OF MY LIFE.
LAURA: HA HA! YOU'VE GOT SOME
SERIOUS DANCE MOVES, WILLIE.
I DIDN'T KNOW IF MY HIPS WOULD HOLD OUT.
THAT DENISE IS A FIRECRACKER.
SHE REMINDS ME A LOT OF MY MARY.
YEAH. SEEMS LIKE EVERY INCH
OF THIS PLACE REMINDS ME OF MOM.
SHE'D BE PROUD OF YOU.
OF THE LIFE YOU'VE BOTH CREATED
FOR OLIVIA AND JORDAN.
PROUD OF YOU MYSELF.
BOTH OF YOU.
THANK YOU, WILLIE.
HEH HEH!
LOVE YOU, POP.
I LOVE YOU, TOO, SON.
HOW MANY PICTURES HAS PREACH SENT OF THE GIRLS?
YEAH. HA! LOOK.
THEY'RE PRETTY DOPE, RIGHT?
IT'S NO SURPRISE AMINA CALLS YOU
HER BEST FRIEND. OH, CUTE.
COOP: DID SHE? PATIENCE: MM-HMM.
YEAH, SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND, TOO.
AFTER YOU. AND SPENCE, OF COURSE.
PATIENCE: YEAH. [COOP LAUGHS]
WELL...NO ONE CAN REPLACE A MOTHER, BUT
IF IT'S ANYONE GONNA BE THERE FOR THAT LITTLE GIRL, IT'S YOU.
SPENCER: BE CAREFUL.
[DOOR CLOSES] HOLD UP.
TELL ME Y'ALL DIDN'T BREAK THAT
WHEN YOU STOLE THIS TROPHY.
WE KNOCKED IT ON ACCIDENT,
BUT WE GOT OUTTA HERE RIGHT AWAY.
NO ONE SAW US.
MAYBE NOT, BUT THE ALARM
TRIGGERED THE SPRINKLERS THAT FLOODED THE GYM.
Y'ALL THE REASON BEVERLY'S PROM GOT CANCELLED.
COME ON.
BACK IN UNDER AN HOUR,
JUST LIKE I PROMISED.
YOU'RE NOT MAD AT ME, RIGHT?
PERFECT TIMING.
MY, UH, BACKUP DATE JUST LEFT.
DAMN, IT'S LIKE THAT?
HEY, YOU'RE THE ONE WHO LEFT
ON SOME MYSTERIOUS, NON-HERO MOMENT
AND THEN INFORMED ME VIA TEXT AFTER THE FACT.
MORE LIKE AN UNEXPECTED HERO MOMENT.
WHO COULD'VE POSSIBLY NEEDED SPENCER JAMES TONIGHT?
JUST SOME DUMBASSES WHO'VE HOPEFULLY LEARNED THEIR LESSONS.
I DON'T WANT TO KNOW, DO I?
NO. I'M JUST GLAD IT'S OVER WITH.
LISTEN, CAN WE PLEASE, PLEASE,
OFFICIALLY RETIRE FROM SAVING THE WORLD
FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT?
DEAL.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
[RINGING] ACTUALLY...
GIVE ME 5 MINUTES BEFORE
OFFICIALLY RETIRING. [RINGING]
[BEEP]
JENN? ARE YOU OK?
HEY.
I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T MEAN TO
RUIN YOUR NIGHT.
ARE YOU HIGH RIGHT NOW?
I'M COMING DOWN. I JUST--
I'VE BEEN UNDER SO MUCH PRESSURE WITH--
WITH DANCE AND THEN I THOUGHT
I COULD KEEP IT UNDER CONTROL.
BUT WE CAN'T.
MY HEART WAS RACING SO FAST
AND I DIDN'T-- I DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO ME. I--
IT'S OK. COME HERE.
I WAS REALLY SCARED, LIV.
COME HERE.
YOU'RE GONNA BE OK. I'M HERE.
OK?
I NEED HELP. I WANT TO BE SOBER.
I PROMISE I DO. I JUST--
I'VE BEEN SO SCARED OF WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE.
BUT WHAT HAPPENED TONIGHT SCARED ME EVEN MORE.
GOOD. IT SHOULD.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I AM GONNA
LET YOU IN ON A LITTLE SECRET.
YOU JUST CONQUERED THE SCARIEST PART
OF ALL OF THIS--
ADMITTING THAT YOU NEED HELP
AND THEN REACHING OUT TO ME FOR IT.
THAT TOOK STRENGTH THAT EVEN I DIDN'T HAVE.
COME ON. LET'S GET YOU HOME, OK?
HEY.
IS EVERYTHING OK?
UM, YEAH. YEAH. UH, I'M SORRY.
CAN WE GIVE JENN A RIDE HOME?
SPENCER: OF COURSE. CARTER: SPENCER.
CAN I HAVE A WORD?
ACTUALLY, WE WERE JUST HEADING OUT.
NO, IT'S OK. GO AHEAD.
WE'LL WAIT IN THE CAR.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
JORDAN. HI.
YOU LEFT WITHOUT SAYING GOOD-BYE.
UH, YEAH. I--I GOTTA
FINISH THIS TRACK MIX FOR A MEETING TOMORROW.
SO, THERE'S NO CHANCE OF ME
TALKING YOU INTO GETTING SOME ROSCOE'S?
JORDAN: IT'S MY TREAT. LAYLA: THANKS. I CAN'T.
I REALLY GOTTA FINISH THIS.
YOU SURE THAT YOU'RE ALL GOOD HERE ALONE?
YEAH. I'M GOOD. BESIDES, I'M NOT ALONE.
JORDAN: YOU'RE NOT? CLAY: OH, HEY, MAN.
OH, MY BAD. I WOULD'VE GOT YOU SOME FOOD, TOO,
IF I'D KNOWN YOU WERE HERE.
AH, IT'S ALL GOOD. IT'S ALL GOOD.
UM, I'M ACTUALLY JUST ON THE WAY OUT.
LAYLA: THANK YOU.
UM, GOOD LUCK WITH THE TRACK, LAYLA.
THANKS.
CLAY: LET'S DO THIS. LAYLA: YEAH.
APPARENTLY, WHEN BEVERLY HAD THE FLOOD,
UH, THE CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY
WAS ALSO STOLEN.
AND OUR WI-FI SERVER DETECTED YOUR PHONE THERE
TONIGHT RIGHT AROUND THE SAME TIME
THE TROPHY MAGICALLY REAPPEARED.
CARE TO EXPLAIN HOW YOU FIT INTO THIS?
AND WHO ELSE WAS WITH YOU?
I WAS JUST TRYING TO DO SOMETHING FUN FOR THE TEAM.
IT WAS A SENIOR YEAR PRANK. I'M SORRY.
YOU AND THE TEAM, RIGHT?
UM...NO, IT WAS JUST ME.
LOOK, THE SPRINKLERS GOING OFF WAS A COMPLETE ACCIDENT,
BUT I TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL OF IT.
SPENCER, WE ALL KNOW THAT
YOU HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH STEALING THAT TROPHY.
PUTTING IT BACK, MAYBE, BUT
YOU CAN TELL THE TRUTH, SON.
BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING, YOU SHOULD KNOW THE SCHOOL HAS
ZERO TOLERANCE FOR BREAKING AND ENTERING.
SPENCER: I WAS ALONE. BILLY: SPENCER.
ARE YOU REALLY WILLING TO GIVE UP
EVERYTHING FOR YOUR TEAM?
YOU UNDERSTAND THIS MEANS EXPULSION.
YOU GUYS GET HOME SAFE.
AHH. DID WE DO THAT OR WHAT, BABY GIRL? MM!
NOW, HOW DO I GET THIS MESS OFF MY FACE?
TIME, DAD. HA! JUST TIME.
[CHUCKLES] YOUR AUNTIE COOP LOVED
ALL THE PICTURES I SENT TO HER.
SHE SAID THAT YOU LOOKED LIKE
YOU WERE READY TO REIGN YOUR OWN KINGDOM.
PATIENCE SAID AUNTIE COOP WILL DO
ANYTHING FOR THE PEOPLE SHE LOVES.
THAT'S TRUE. YOUR AUNTIE COOP
LOVES YOU VERY MUCH.
THAT'S WHY I DON'T GET IT.
GET WHAT?
IF SHE LOVES ME,
THEN WHY'D SHE KILL MY MOM?
LOOK, I KNOW IT'S THE JUNIORS
WHO CAUSED THIS MESS.
YOU JUST GOTTA SAY EXACTLY WHO DID IT.
CARTER IS--HE'S SERIOUS ABOUT EXPELLING YOU.
AIN'T NO WAY CARTER'S KICKING ME OUT
OVER A PRANK.
BILLY: WELL... SPENCER: RIGHT?
DAD, YOU COULDN'T EVEN MAKE IT HOME
BEFORE FALLING ASLEEP?
POP.
DAD.
CALL 911.
DAD. DAD?
DAD, WAKE UP.
DAD.
OH, MY GOD, DAD.
MAN: GREG, MOVE YOUR HEAD.
