Thanksgiving is all about sharing secret

Learning the meaning of humility
and giving thanks for making new friends.

we pulled the fire alarm

So I ran.

00:17:10,739 --> 00:17:12,739
'cause apparently,
I don't have emotions.
343
00:17:13,575 --> 00:17:18,115
Sometimes you do have a way of performing
that doesn't exactly feel authentic.
344
00:17:19,122 --> 00:17:21,122
Then what was I just doing onstage?
345
00:17:21,208 --> 00:17:23,538
That felt more like an allergic reaction.
346
00:17:23,627 --> 00:17:25,877
And what's authentic to you, Carlos?
347
00:17:25,963 --> 00:17:27,593
A forest full of human beings?
348
00:17:28,131 --> 00:17:30,181
That concept may need
a little bit of time.
349
00:17:30,259 --> 00:17:31,469
And so do I.
350
00:17:36,056 --> 00:17:37,056
Miss Jenn?
351
00:17:39,226 --> 00:17:42,266
I don't think I'm alone in noticing
that you seem a little...
352
00:17:42,354 --> 00:17:43,364
On edge?
353
00:17:44,106 --> 00:17:45,686
I was gonna say "fully freaked out."
354
00:17:45,774 --> 00:17:47,074
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)
355
00:17:47,150 --> 00:17:49,610
-This is where I was sitting.
-Sitting for what?
356
00:17:49,695 --> 00:17:52,275
The Utah premiere
of the High School Musical movie.
357
00:17:52,781 --> 00:17:55,531
This entire row
was filled with family, friends.
358
00:17:56,451 --> 00:17:59,711
But the only audience I cared about
was Lucas Grabeel.
359
00:18:00,455 --> 00:18:02,365
-You may know him as...
-Ryan.
360
00:18:03,834 --> 00:18:05,254
I had one line in the movie.
361
00:18:05,752 --> 00:18:08,512
He was the only lead
who came up to me on set and said,
362
00:18:09,131 --> 00:18:11,591
"You really nailed that line, Jessica."
363
00:18:13,802 --> 00:18:16,222
I didn't have the heart to tell him
my real name.
364
00:18:17,306 --> 00:18:19,676
But they cut it. They cut my line.
365
00:18:20,601 --> 00:18:22,351
"Is that the last apple?"
366
00:18:22,436 --> 00:18:23,976
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
367
00:18:24,062 --> 00:18:25,442
(ON SPEAKERS) How dare she sign up?
368
00:18:25,522 --> 00:18:27,442
I've already picked
out the colors for my dressing...
369
00:18:27,524 --> 00:18:29,034
"Is that the last apple?"
370
00:18:30,068 --> 00:18:32,238
I have a line here. Did I miss it?
371
00:18:32,905 --> 00:18:35,025
That night set me back seven years.
372
00:18:35,115 --> 00:18:36,575
My confidence was shattered.
373
00:18:36,658 --> 00:18:37,988
What happened?
374
00:18:39,077 --> 00:18:40,247
Is Kenny Ortega here?
375
00:18:40,329 --> 00:18:43,289
-Miss, will you please come with me?
-No, I'm in the movie.
376
00:18:43,373 --> 00:18:46,253
No, don't "Miss" me. I...
Did you hear my line?
377
00:18:46,335 --> 00:18:48,205
"Is that the last apple?"
378
00:18:48,670 --> 00:18:50,010
Wow, that's terrible.
379
00:18:51,131 --> 00:18:52,421
Thank you, Ashlyn.
380
00:18:53,675 --> 00:18:58,215
You know, if it helps, you inspired me
to write a whole song about regrets.
381
00:18:58,305 --> 00:19:00,555
I know, and now nobody will ever hear it,
382
00:19:00,641 --> 00:19:03,811
because our PA system died faster
than my career in New York.
383
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,440
(SIGHS) Miss Jenn,
I think you need to find
384
00:19:07,523 --> 00:19:11,153
a quiet place and, like, forgive yourself.
385
00:19:13,695 --> 00:19:14,815
Use these.
386
00:19:15,447 --> 00:19:16,947
My lucky crystals.
387
00:19:17,032 --> 00:19:18,412
Haven't let me down once.
388
00:19:19,076 --> 00:19:20,616
Use them how?
389
00:19:21,161 --> 00:19:22,501
Whatever feels right.
390
00:19:22,579 --> 00:19:24,959
You need to trust yourself, the way...
391
00:19:25,791 --> 00:19:28,091
I don't know, the way we all trust you.

-Oh, hang on.

-It's Gina.
-Oh.
399
00:19:59,366 --> 00:20:02,906
"Sorry, drama with my mom's job.
I think we have to leave a day early."
400
00:20:02,995 --> 00:20:06,665
-Oh, I feel so bad for her.
-I can't even imagine.
401
00:20:06,748 --> 00:20:09,168
-After all that work, just up and leaving.
-Mmm.
402
00:20:09,251 --> 00:20:11,461
I get it, though. Moving is a big deal.
403
00:20:11,545 --> 00:20:13,875
I mean, I just mentioned
this performing arts school
404
00:20:13,964 --> 00:20:17,764
I was looking at to Kourtney,
and she was not exactly thrilled for me.
405
00:20:17,843 --> 00:20:20,763
Wait, that's amazing.
Like a drama school?
406
00:20:20,846 --> 00:20:21,966
It's in Denver.
407
00:20:22,055 --> 00:20:23,055
Oh.
408
00:20:23,599 --> 00:20:25,019
Uh, yeah, it's never gonna happen.
409
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:27,390
It's, like, super-elite.
They'd never take me.
410
00:20:27,936 --> 00:20:29,896
What? You're, like,
one-in-a-million talented.
411
00:20:29,980 --> 00:20:32,480
-What are you talking about?
-You've never left Salt Lake,
412
00:20:32,566 --> 00:20:34,646
you don't know how much talent
there is out there.
413
00:20:34,735 --> 00:20:35,735
That's not fair.
414
00:20:35,819 --> 00:20:39,109
My parents took me to Disneyland once
and I met a very talented Minnie Mouse.
415
00:20:39,198 --> 00:20:42,238
Ah, yes, Minnie Mouse, your first crush.
416
00:20:42,326 --> 00:20:44,076
Oh, actually she was my second...

some kind of real-time midlife crisis.

You both good with pepperoni
and soy cheese?

-Yeah, oh, yeah.
-Yeah, that sounds good to me.

Sorry, I know you're multi-talented
or whatever,

I just think you have a gift
for making things look better.

but I don't like categories.

to one thing, right?

Right. Cool.
440
00:21:57,651 --> 00:22:02,821

Should we go ask what's going on?

She's having a moment.
Maybe you can go and ask her.

I don't wanna freak her out more
with my lifeless eyes.
446

You were right, by the way.

and coming here was a huge mistake.

of anything.

No, you stepped up, dude.

This is your contractually obligated
dream sequence.

Being back here,
474
00:24:09,575 --> 00:24:11,785
it reminds me of that scene
in the cafeteria.

I think I lost my way too.

You're their teacher, you're the lead

00:26:14,575 --> 00:26:17,285
And live for the show
515
00:26:17,661 --> 00:26:19,621
I'll give it my all
516
00:26:19,705 --> 00:26:21,205
Right from the start
517
00:26:21,540 --> 00:26:24,840
I gotta play this from the heart
518
00:26:25,460 --> 00:26:28,550
I'm their teacher, I'm the lead
519
00:26:28,755 --> 00:26:32,255
And I'm off book now
520
00:26:32,634 --> 00:26:36,224
BOTH: Give it a go
Show 'em the way
521
00:26:36,305 --> 00:26:39,805
You gotta let the music play
522
00:26:40,225 --> 00:26:44,145
This is now and the rest is history
523
00:26:45,564 --> 00:26:49,364
I felt small, I couldn't breathe
524
00:26:49,443 --> 00:26:52,533
When they took that apple from me
525
00:26:52,613 --> 00:26:55,123
But you're right here now
526
00:26:55,199 --> 00:26:59,369
And you never know when you'll get a cameo
527
00:26:59,453 --> 00:27:01,833
CHORUS: Cameo
528
00:27:01,914 --> 00:27:05,714
MISS JENN: So give it your all
Right from the start
529
00:27:05,792 --> 00:27:09,802
You gotta let them play their parts
530
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:14,800
Tonight, all the roles will be played by
the drama students of East High.
531
00:27:16,929 --> 00:27:20,519
MISS JENN AND LUCAS: Give it a go
Show 'em the way
532
00:27:20,599 --> 00:27:24,309
You gotta let the music play
533
00:27:24,394 --> 00:27:28,234
This is now and we're making history
534
00:27:28,690 --> 00:27:29,730
History...
535
00:27:29,816 --> 00:27:32,566
History...
536
00:27:32,653 --> 00:27:34,403
CARLOS: Miss Jenn, say something!
537
00:27:34,488 --> 00:27:35,488
Ouch.
538
00:27:35,572 --> 00:27:37,282
Sorry, was that last one too hard?
539
00:27:38,617 --> 00:27:40,287
I'm the teacher.
540
00:27:41,203 --> 00:27:42,253
Yeah?
541
00:27:43,121 --> 00:27:45,461
And we're making history.
542
00:27:46,959 --> 00:27:49,499
Everything's gonna be okay.
543
00:27:51,338 --> 00:27:52,708
I know where we have to go.
544
00:27:53,215 --> 00:27:54,215
Broadway?
545
00:27:54,299 --> 00:27:56,009
Back to East High.
546
00:27:56,093 --> 00:27:58,603
Oh, my God, how hard did I hit you?
547
00:27:59,012 --> 00:28:00,432
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
548
00:28:05,185 --> 00:28:07,095
-Dude?
-Talk about it in the car.
549
00:28:12,860 --> 00:28:15,360
GIRL: This can't get wrinkled
because it'll show...
550
00:28:15,445 --> 00:28:16,735
Hey, are you okay?
551
00:28:16,822 --> 00:28:20,702
Yeah, I just...
almost did something really stupid.
552
00:28:21,577 --> 00:28:23,117
Do you wanna talk about it?
553
00:28:23,203 --> 00:28:25,293
No, it's over. It was just a moment.
554
00:28:25,372 --> 00:28:26,372
Okay.
555
00:28:26,999 --> 00:28:28,539
Oh, hey! I heard you sang a song.
556
00:28:28,625 --> 00:28:30,495
Oh. (CHUCKLES) It was ridiculous.
557
00:28:30,586 --> 00:28:34,456
Yeah. That's what I heard,
except maybe not in the way you mean it.
558
00:28:34,548 --> 00:28:35,548
Oh.
559
00:28:35,632 --> 00:28:38,182
No, honestly, Kourt,
you have the best voice in school.
560
00:28:38,635 --> 00:28:42,055
I don't know about all of that,
but I'll say this.
561
00:28:42,139 --> 00:28:44,059
I can tell why you like it up there.
562
00:28:44,808 --> 00:28:45,808
(SIGHS)
563
00:28:45,893 --> 00:28:46,893
See you in the car?
564
00:28:46,977 --> 00:28:48,397
Uh, yeah, I'll catch up.
565
00:28:48,770 --> 00:28:49,860
Okay.
566
00:28:55,736 --> 00:28:58,316
KOURTNEY: Look, I'm not gonna give up
on costumes or makeup.
567
00:28:58,405 --> 00:29:01,445
But, for the first time,
I see why Nini wants this so bad.
568
00:29:01,533 --> 00:29:05,123
And if she's not gonna put herself
out there, I'll do it for her.
569
00:29:06,288 --> 00:29:07,828
(LINE RINGING)
570
00:29:07,915 --> 00:29:09,455
WOMAN: Youth Actors Conservatory.
571
00:29:09,541 --> 00:29:11,081
How can I direct your call?
