1
00:00:17,310 --> 00:00:20,229
I fell in love with dance
when I was three years old.

2
00:00:21,397 --> 00:00:23,733
Relevé. Passé.

3
00:00:23,816 --> 00:00:24,650
And!

4
00:00:25,276 --> 00:00:28,404
One day, my mom was playing
this old song, "Always Be My Baby,"

5
00:00:28,488 --> 00:00:30,740
and by the chorus, I was twirling.

6
00:00:31,991 --> 00:00:34,827
She swears I was too little to remember,
but I do.

7
00:00:35,578 --> 00:00:36,454
Again.

8
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,708
The blue rug in our old house,
my Princess Tiana nightgown,

9
00:00:41,501 --> 00:00:44,295
and how I felt like
I was going to twirl forever.

10
00:00:46,422 --> 00:00:47,256
No.

11
00:00:52,303 --> 00:00:54,388
But believing in
"meant to be" is easy

12
00:00:54,472 --> 00:00:56,682
when you've always been, like, the star.

13
00:00:57,183 --> 00:00:59,811
That's embarrassing to say,
but it's the truth.

14
00:01:01,896 --> 00:01:03,397
Beautiful, Miranda.

15
00:01:09,904 --> 00:01:11,781
Or at least it was
until I started class

16
00:01:11,864 --> 00:01:13,991
at this new dance school
in Stamford this year.

17
00:01:14,492 --> 00:01:16,160
I worked so hard to get in.

18
00:01:16,744 --> 00:01:18,204
I knew it'd be more competitive,

19
00:01:18,287 --> 00:01:21,332
but I figured if they picked me,
then I belonged here.

20
00:01:24,293 --> 00:01:26,379
But it doesn't feel that way.

21
00:01:35,888 --> 00:01:37,223
It made me wonder,

22
00:01:37,306 --> 00:01:39,809
had I been the best
because I love to dance

23
00:01:40,601 --> 00:01:43,396
or did I love to dance
because I'd always been the best?

24
00:01:46,315 --> 00:01:47,525
This is taking forever.

25
00:01:48,818 --> 00:01:50,987
This really needs a four-way stop sign.

26
00:01:51,070 --> 00:01:52,989
I'm gonna be late for the meeting.

27
00:01:53,072 --> 00:01:54,532
Okay, I'm trying!

28
00:01:55,116 --> 00:01:59,203
Jessi, what's Q-U-I-N-O-A?

29
00:01:59,287 --> 00:02:01,789
Quinoa, honey.
That little grain that Daddy hates.

30
00:02:03,499 --> 00:02:04,542
How was class?

31
00:02:05,418 --> 00:02:06,544
I wasn't on my leg.

32
00:02:06,627 --> 00:02:09,547
And Madame Noelle
adjusted my turnout in front of everyone.

33
00:02:09,630 --> 00:02:13,009
Hm. That's the whole reason
you wanted to go to this school, right?

34
00:02:13,092 --> 00:02:14,218
To improve.

35
00:02:14,302 --> 00:02:15,678
But I'm not improving.

36
00:02:15,761 --> 00:02:18,222
And she's assigning parts
for the winter recital soon.

37
00:02:18,806 --> 00:02:21,225
There's a jeté clinic
on Saturday that could help.

38
00:02:21,309 --> 00:02:23,477
Saturday is Becca's a cappella concert.

39
00:02:23,561 --> 00:02:26,147
If Jessi has to miss it, it's okay.

40
00:02:26,230 --> 00:02:29,358
No, baby. Saturday is family time.

41
00:02:29,442 --> 00:02:32,904
And we're all gonna be
at Becca's concert as a family.

42
00:02:37,283 --> 00:02:38,576
I'm gonna scream.

43
00:02:42,663 --> 00:02:44,665
-Wait, Dawn, is this you?
-Yeah.

44
00:02:44,749 --> 00:02:46,792
-You look great.
-Thanks, Kristy.

45
00:02:46,876 --> 00:02:51,339
Logan just texted.
He said, "Playing," then ramen emoji?

46
00:02:52,006 --> 00:02:53,883
Ooh, boy code. Let's analyze.

47
00:02:53,966 --> 00:02:56,802
I'm pretty sure it means
he's playing Minecraft, then eating--

48
00:02:56,886 --> 00:02:58,512
Mary Anne, it's never literal.

49
00:02:58,596 --> 00:03:00,514
Made it! Sorry.

50
00:03:01,015 --> 00:03:03,017
Look, you have to send this. There.

51
00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:05,061
-An alarm? Kristy, really?

52
00:03:08,481 --> 00:03:09,482
When was this?

53
00:03:09,982 --> 00:03:11,859
-You guys look cute.
-Last week.

54
00:03:11,943 --> 00:03:12,860
It was magic hour,

55
00:03:12,944 --> 00:03:16,113
so I did an impromptu shoot
on the way back from the pizza place.

56
00:03:16,614 --> 00:03:19,367
-You were at ballet.
-It looks like you guys had fun.

57
00:03:19,450 --> 00:03:21,202
This meeting is officially in session.

58
00:03:21,953 --> 00:03:23,537
Now, first order of business,

59
00:03:23,621 --> 00:03:27,250
my mom said there's this big
town hall meeting in a couple of weeks.

60
00:03:27,333 --> 00:03:30,336
They're discussing adding a stop sign
on Edgarstone and Kimball.

61
00:03:30,419 --> 00:03:31,921
-Finally!
-Finally!

62
00:03:32,004 --> 00:03:34,632
All the adults in that neighborhood
are going to the meeting

63
00:03:34,715 --> 00:03:36,092
and they'll all need sitters,

64
00:03:36,175 --> 00:03:38,552
so I figured we could plan
something fun for the kids

65
00:03:38,636 --> 00:03:40,304
and offer a special,
discounted group rate.

66
00:03:40,388 --> 00:03:44,141
-Supporting community engagement--
-And special event services. I love it.

67
00:03:44,225 --> 00:03:47,770
Right? Mary Anne and I counted up
all the kids in that general area

68
00:03:47,853 --> 00:03:49,480
and we came up with 12.

69
00:03:49,563 --> 00:03:51,107
We can watch 12 kids.

70
00:03:51,190 --> 00:03:52,316
Two for each sitter.

71
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,318
-Without Jessi, of course.

72
00:03:54,402 --> 00:03:57,488
-Afternoon, Baby-Sitters Club.
-Why without Jessi? Why am I not counted?

73
00:03:57,571 --> 00:03:59,073
Oh, because you're unavail.

74
00:03:59,156 --> 00:04:02,368
You gave me all your dance conflicts
when you enrolled at your new school.

75
00:04:02,868 --> 00:04:04,620
Your winter dance recital is that night.

76
00:04:05,204 --> 00:04:06,789
-See?
-Oh.

77
00:04:06,872 --> 00:04:10,251
Wait until you guys see Jessi dance.
I cried when she was in The Nutcracker.

78
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,878
What time's the show?
Maybe we can do both.

79
00:04:12,962 --> 00:04:14,380
Oh, don't worry about it.

80
00:04:14,463 --> 00:04:17,174
It's all the way in Stamford
and I don't even have a part yet.

81
00:04:17,258 --> 00:04:19,677
But you will.
You're gonna be the star. I know it.

82
00:04:20,261 --> 00:04:23,347
Please hold. Guys,
Derek Masters's dad is on the phone.

83
00:04:23,431 --> 00:04:26,058
Derek needs a sitter every Thursday
for the next few weeks.

84
00:04:26,142 --> 00:04:28,477
Wait, TikTok "Derek the Superbrat"
Derek Masters?

85
00:04:28,561 --> 00:04:29,645
Oh my God.

86
00:04:29,729 --> 00:04:32,189
He is the most followed
TikTokker under ten.

87
00:04:32,273 --> 00:04:33,149
He's from Stoneybrook?

88
00:04:33,232 --> 00:04:36,485
When he's in town. He used to be friends
with the triplets back in the day.

89
00:04:36,569 --> 00:04:38,863
Claudia, you're free. Oh, and Jessi too!

90
00:04:38,946 --> 00:04:40,865
-No ballet on Thursdays.
-I'm free?

91
00:04:40,948 --> 00:04:43,034
I'll take it! Can I take it?

92
00:04:43,117 --> 00:04:45,119
-Do you mind?
-No. Take it.

93
00:04:45,202 --> 00:04:49,749
Finally. My crazy dance schedule
was letting me take a babysitting job.

94
00:04:49,832 --> 00:04:52,251
And kind of the chillest one ever.

95
00:04:52,335 --> 00:04:56,505
I mean, Derek Masters might be a kid,
but he was a real star.

96
00:04:56,589 --> 00:04:59,800
And I was determined
to show Madame that I was one too.

97
00:05:00,384 --> 00:05:02,803
I'm watching
Derek Masters' slime-squirting video.

98
00:05:02,887 --> 00:05:06,724
Did you know he gets paid by the viewer?
He has, like, millions of viewers.

99
00:05:06,807 --> 00:05:08,100
Don't mind me.

100
00:05:08,184 --> 00:05:10,978
Just your friendly neighborhood mother
here to do your chores.

101
00:05:11,562 --> 00:05:13,606
I'm sorry, Mom.
I meant to take all that down.

102
00:05:13,689 --> 00:05:17,443
Squirt gave Mr. Buns a juice bath,
so I needed to do a load anyway.

103
00:05:17,526 --> 00:05:19,278
Mrs. Ramsey, guess what?

104
00:05:19,362 --> 00:05:22,782
Jessi is going to babysit
an actual celebrity. Derek Masters.

105
00:05:22,865 --> 00:05:25,993
He unboxes, and then he re-boxes.

106
00:05:26,077 --> 00:05:27,953
When he was two,
a video of him wearing a cape

107
00:05:28,037 --> 00:05:30,956
and pretending to be a super villain
named Superbrat went viral.

108
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,084
Now he's a brand unto himself. Look.

109
00:05:34,043 --> 00:05:35,586
I'm Derek the Superbrat,

110
00:05:35,669 --> 00:05:38,631
and today I've got this slime gun
that fires gooey…

111
00:05:38,714 --> 00:05:42,134
Whatever happened to just being a kid
with memories that are private?

112
00:05:43,594 --> 00:05:45,054
Oh, don't turn it on yet.

113
00:05:45,137 --> 00:05:46,722
It makes the mirrors vibrate.

114
00:05:46,806 --> 00:05:50,059
I'm trying to work my jeté
since the Saturday clinic is out.

115
00:05:50,142 --> 00:05:53,646
Uh-huh. Well, after you eat dinner,
and finish your homework,

116
00:05:53,729 --> 00:05:57,858
the washing machine will be all finished
and you can jeté until your feet fall off.

117
00:06:00,361 --> 00:06:02,613
Now come on. Don't let the rolls get cold.

118
00:06:03,489 --> 00:06:06,325
Did you hear that? How dismissive she was.

119
00:06:06,409 --> 00:06:09,537
I mean, I need space to work.
Why can't she see that?

120
00:06:10,287 --> 00:06:13,040
I mean, they…
They built you a literal space.

121
00:06:13,541 --> 00:06:15,126
But yes, obviously I'm on your side.

122
00:06:15,209 --> 00:06:17,753
Mal, I forgot.
Did you want to stay for dinner?

123
00:06:17,837 --> 00:06:19,880
-God, yes!

124
00:06:20,464 --> 00:06:23,843
What? At home I'm basically a waiter
and I don't even have a tuxedo.

125
00:06:23,926 --> 00:06:25,469
Oh. Hey, baby.

126
00:06:25,553 --> 00:06:27,388
-Hey, Mallory.
-Hi, Mr. Ramsey.

127
00:06:27,471 --> 00:06:28,597
Apple juice.

128
00:06:30,558 --> 00:06:32,518
-Y'all coming up?
-In a second.

129
00:06:32,601 --> 00:06:34,770
I was just trying to do my best.

130
00:06:34,854 --> 00:06:38,566
Stand out at my new school.
Why couldn't my parents support that?

131
00:06:39,275 --> 00:06:40,985
Jessica. Now.

132
00:06:41,068 --> 00:06:43,779
Why did they have to be
such… parents?

133
00:06:43,863 --> 00:06:44,822
Come on.

134
00:06:44,905 --> 00:06:48,784
A few days later, I met a dad
who knew how to be on his kid's team.

135
00:06:48,868 --> 00:06:50,828
I mean, he even had team shirts.

136
00:06:50,911 --> 00:06:54,915
We are in the home stretch
of our promotional holiday series.

137
00:06:54,999 --> 00:06:57,918
People need gift ideas
and they trust Derek's opinion.

138
00:06:58,002 --> 00:07:02,715
Now, if you two can get at least one video
done while I'm gone, that would be great.

139
00:07:02,798 --> 00:07:05,259
But no need to over-direct him, right?

140
00:07:05,342 --> 00:07:08,137
I just give him the space
for him to shine, you know?

141
00:07:08,220 --> 00:07:09,722
-Totally.
-Great.

142
00:07:10,723 --> 00:07:14,018
Derek can guide you through everything.
You just need to run the camera.

143
00:07:14,101 --> 00:07:16,729
Okay. Anything else
I need know, Mr. Masters?

144
00:07:16,812 --> 00:07:18,606
Emergency numbers, allergies--

145
00:07:18,689 --> 00:07:19,940
It's Chaz.

146
00:07:20,024 --> 00:07:23,694
Airdropped you everything.
Snacks are in the fridge.

147
00:07:23,777 --> 00:07:26,280
Oh, but no dairy.
Phlegm's bad for his voice.

148
00:07:27,615 --> 00:07:31,869
Uh, I'm meeting with his manager.
Should only take a couple of hours.

149
00:07:31,952 --> 00:07:34,997
Hey, Derek! Anything you want me
to ask Artie before your callback?

150
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,291
-Nah, I'm feeling pretty ready.
-Yeah, you are.

151
00:07:37,374 --> 00:07:39,376
Move over Harry Styles, huh?

152
00:07:39,460 --> 00:07:41,712
-Hey, Jessi. You are a star.

153
00:07:41,795 --> 00:07:46,383
Artie? Yes, yes! I am on my way.
But just saw your email.

154
00:07:46,467 --> 00:07:49,595
Loving a young Chalamet direction
for his new headshots.

155
00:07:51,514 --> 00:07:54,808
So what would you like to do first?
We could play a game or--

156
00:07:54,892 --> 00:07:56,644
Let's just shoot. Hit the switch.

157
00:08:04,235 --> 00:08:06,153
Your dad mentioned a callback?

158
00:08:06,237 --> 00:08:09,657
Yeah. It's for this new TV show
where a kid gets elected president.

159
00:08:09,740 --> 00:08:12,409
It's down to me and one other kid
for the chief of staff part.

160
00:08:12,493 --> 00:08:13,494
That's awesome.

161
00:08:13,577 --> 00:08:15,871
-Can you hand me that HDMI cable?
-Sure.

162
00:08:18,499 --> 00:08:19,792
Whoa. You do yoga?

163
00:08:19,875 --> 00:08:20,709
Ballet.

164
00:08:21,210 --> 00:08:22,628
Cool. In the city?

165
00:08:22,711 --> 00:08:24,964
I mean,
if by "the city" you mean Stamford.

166
00:08:25,714 --> 00:08:29,552
I actually have an audition coming up too,
but it's not like a TV show or anything.

167
00:08:29,635 --> 00:08:31,345
An audition is an audition.

168
00:08:31,428 --> 00:08:34,723
My dad says it's your job to walk in
and show 'em what you've got.

169
00:08:34,807 --> 00:08:37,059
And when you're the best,
they can't say no.

170
00:08:39,228 --> 00:08:40,271
Derek was right.

171
00:08:40,354 --> 00:08:41,855
I had gotten into my head

172
00:08:41,939 --> 00:08:44,400
when I really needed
to leave it all on the floor.

173
00:08:45,192 --> 00:08:49,071
And during the final class before Madame
announced her decisions, I did.

174
00:08:49,572 --> 00:08:52,074
Along with every electrolyte in my body.

175
00:08:52,908 --> 00:08:55,202
I think I spun out a lung
during those fouettés.

176
00:08:55,286 --> 00:08:57,663
The Saturday jeté clinic helped, right?

177
00:08:58,247 --> 00:08:59,707
Mes petites,

178
00:08:59,790 --> 00:09:04,336
the lead role of Snow Queen
in the winter recital will be danced by

179
00:09:04,962 --> 00:09:05,921
Miranda Rose.

180
00:09:09,174 --> 00:09:11,969
And the wind variation
by Clementine Anderson.

181
00:09:12,052 --> 00:09:14,763
-As for the rest of you…

182
00:09:14,847 --> 00:09:16,098
I was an icicle.

183
00:09:16,599 --> 00:09:19,226
Corps de Ballet. The leftovers.

184
00:09:19,810 --> 00:09:21,979
Madame didn't even say my name.

185
00:09:22,062 --> 00:09:24,106
-…is very challenging.

186
00:09:24,189 --> 00:09:27,192
Your work is
to be identical to the person…

187
00:09:28,527 --> 00:09:32,448
I could barely wrap my head
around not getting a real part,

188
00:09:32,531 --> 00:09:35,367
but the idea of my friends
knowing I had failed?

189
00:09:40,789 --> 00:09:44,668
That really had me spinning,
and not in a fouetté kind of way.

190
00:09:44,752 --> 00:09:47,463
So the nature scavenger hunt
might work, but…

191
00:09:47,546 --> 00:09:50,424
Hey, Stace, do you think
poison ivy still grows in winter?

192
00:09:50,507 --> 00:09:52,134
Too soon, Kristy.

193
00:09:52,635 --> 00:09:54,553
-Still! God.

194
00:09:54,637 --> 00:09:58,766
What about the movies? What's wrong
with the movies? It's fun and it's warm.

195
00:09:58,849 --> 00:10:00,851
It's also screen time.

196
00:10:00,934 --> 00:10:03,979
Okay, but what if we did
like an educational talk-back at the end?

197
00:10:04,063 --> 00:10:06,315
About what we thought worked
and what didn't.

198
00:10:06,398 --> 00:10:08,317
Yeah. And we could get
the kids to figure out

199
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,194
how much a single Sour Patch Kid costs

200
00:10:10,277 --> 00:10:13,489
depending on the price of the box
and other boring math stuff.

201
00:10:13,572 --> 00:10:15,616
-I'll help with the math.
-Okay.

202
00:10:15,699 --> 00:10:19,536
Mary Anne, see what's opening
and check for available showtimes.

203
00:10:19,620 --> 00:10:23,082
Showtimes. That reminds me.
Jessi, how'd it go with the recital?

204
00:10:24,833 --> 00:10:25,834
She got the lead!

205
00:10:25,918 --> 00:10:27,044
-No way!
-You didn't!

206
00:10:27,127 --> 00:10:29,713
No way! Jessi, that's amazing!

207
00:10:29,797 --> 00:10:32,841
"There are no small roles,
only small dancers."

208
00:10:32,925 --> 00:10:35,844
Whoever said that
clearly never had to play an icicle.

209
00:10:38,430 --> 00:10:40,474
But my friends were so excited.

210
00:10:42,101 --> 00:10:45,270
And at least there could be
one place I got to feel like a star.

211
00:10:46,939 --> 00:10:48,607
Stop. Stop the music.

212
00:11:01,412 --> 00:11:03,122
Again from the top, Miranda.

213
00:11:07,793 --> 00:11:10,129
Hey, Supremes! It's Derek the Superbrat.

214
00:11:10,212 --> 00:11:13,841
And I was thinking, what if your hunger
for fashion could feed others?

215
00:11:14,508 --> 00:11:17,553
Food for thought.
Okay, let's get to the fun part.

216
00:11:17,636 --> 00:11:20,597
My neck looks weird.
Let's reshoot from a different angle.

217
00:11:20,681 --> 00:11:22,182
-I'll reset.
-Great.

218
00:11:26,019 --> 00:11:27,730
Any news about your callback yet?

219
00:11:27,813 --> 00:11:30,441
Soon, I hope. How about ballet?

220
00:11:30,524 --> 00:11:33,402
Somehow,
I felt like I could talk to Derek.

221
00:11:33,485 --> 00:11:36,155
Pro to pro. Or whatever I was.

222
00:11:36,238 --> 00:11:37,239
I'm an icicle.

223
00:11:37,906 --> 00:11:39,241
Is that good?

224
00:11:39,825 --> 00:11:40,743
It's background.

225
00:11:42,035 --> 00:11:46,081
You know,
I've been dancing my whole life, and now,

226
00:11:46,582 --> 00:11:48,709
it's just like, what's the point?

227
00:11:48,792 --> 00:11:52,254
Well, maybe it's not the right fit.

228
00:11:52,337 --> 00:11:54,131
If you wanna make a name for yourself,

229
00:11:54,214 --> 00:11:56,842
you should try building
an online platform.

230
00:11:57,342 --> 00:11:59,928
And from there on,
you can do sponsorships and acting.

231
00:12:00,012 --> 00:12:03,557
I don't know.
I've… I've always just been a dancer.

232
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,643
And I was just a baby
pretending to be a super villain.

233
00:12:06,727 --> 00:12:09,730
Now millions of people
all over the world know my name.

234
00:12:10,898 --> 00:12:12,649
Maybe Derek was right.

235
00:12:13,650 --> 00:12:16,820
I had this big dance fairy tale
in my head my whole life,

236
00:12:16,904 --> 00:12:19,364
but no one was paying attention anymore.

237
00:12:19,448 --> 00:12:21,450
Maybe I should have been dancing
on TikTok,

238
00:12:21,533 --> 00:12:24,536
getting clicks
and endorsement opportunities and fame.

239
00:12:24,620 --> 00:12:26,914
Being a star. A real star.

240
00:12:27,414 --> 00:12:28,916
Who wouldn't want that?

241
00:12:28,999 --> 00:12:32,002
Besides my parents. Specifically, my mom.

242
00:12:32,085 --> 00:12:36,089
She was going to need convincing,
which is why I knew I needed backup.

243
00:12:36,173 --> 00:12:37,424
And you chose me?

244
00:12:37,508 --> 00:12:41,220
Stacey told me how you got your dad
to loosen up, and he's a lawyer, right?

245
00:12:41,303 --> 00:12:43,305
So you must have
some serious debate skills.

246
00:12:43,388 --> 00:12:45,557
Yeah, I guess, but it wasn't court.

247
00:12:45,641 --> 00:12:48,977
More like, "What about a half ponytail
instead of braids the entire time?"

248
00:12:49,561 --> 00:12:50,854
-Hey, Mom.
-Hi.

249
00:12:50,938 --> 00:12:52,731
Dinner is ready.

250
00:12:52,815 --> 00:12:54,608
Just put Squirt down for the night

251
00:12:54,691 --> 00:12:57,194
and we will eat
as soon as Daddy and Becca get home.

252
00:12:57,277 --> 00:13:00,531
Thank you so much for having me.
Dinner smells delicious.

253
00:13:00,614 --> 00:13:03,575
I wore almost your exact outfit
all of high school.

254
00:13:03,659 --> 00:13:04,660
Really?

255
00:13:04,743 --> 00:13:07,412
We were right near
Silvercup Studios in Queens,

256
00:13:07,496 --> 00:13:10,833
and I kept thinking I was gonna
get discovered and become a star.

257
00:13:10,916 --> 00:13:12,334
Oh my gosh, just like Jessi!

258
00:13:14,294 --> 00:13:15,420
Wh… what do you mean?

259
00:13:15,963 --> 00:13:18,924
I might need to try
a different strategy for my career.

260
00:13:19,550 --> 00:13:20,759
Your what?

261
00:13:20,843 --> 00:13:23,220
I've been focusing so much on ballet

262
00:13:23,303 --> 00:13:27,057
when what I really need to start doing
is building my online presence.

263
00:13:27,140 --> 00:13:28,809
Chaz says most casting directors

264
00:13:28,892 --> 00:13:31,186
are looking for people
who already have a platform.

265
00:13:31,270 --> 00:13:33,981
Wait. Um, attention?

266
00:13:34,064 --> 00:13:36,066
Casting directors? Chaz?

267
00:13:36,817 --> 00:13:41,280
Dance isn't getting me anywhere and Chaz,
Derek Masters's dad--

268
00:13:41,363 --> 00:13:42,364
The boxing boy?

269
00:13:42,447 --> 00:13:43,574
Unboxing.

270
00:13:43,657 --> 00:13:45,617
But he's really moved on from that.

271
00:13:45,701 --> 00:13:48,662
He makes all this money
and he has millions of fans.

272
00:13:48,745 --> 00:13:53,709
Yeah, he made a really cute video
about puppies doing yoga. I think.

273
00:13:54,877 --> 00:13:56,336
I could start posting right away,

274
00:13:56,420 --> 00:13:59,923
and I was thinking I could use
my dance space to film stuff in.

275
00:14:00,007 --> 00:14:03,302
Derek and Chaz said they would
both follow me and signal boost.

276
00:14:03,385 --> 00:14:05,137
When exactly were you planning
to do all this?

277
00:14:05,220 --> 00:14:09,766
On top of schoolwork, babysitting,
and four weekly ballet classes.

278
00:14:09,850 --> 00:14:11,935
Do you plan to sleep? Do I get to sleep?

279
00:14:12,644 --> 00:14:14,187
I'm gonna quit ballet.

280
00:14:15,939 --> 00:14:18,650
Oh no, you are not quitting ballet.

281
00:14:18,734 --> 00:14:21,153
-But it's not working, Mom.
-Not working?

282
00:14:21,236 --> 00:14:25,741
You got into a ballet school that you have
been begging to go to for three years.

283
00:14:25,824 --> 00:14:30,704
That our family, as a family,
has made all kinds of sacrifices for.

284
00:14:30,787 --> 00:14:32,205
You just don't understand.

285
00:14:32,289 --> 00:14:34,625
I do. You didn't get a big part
in your winter show.

286
00:14:34,708 --> 00:14:36,293
You're not the center of attention.

287
00:14:36,376 --> 00:14:41,006
So now you want to throw years
of hard work, discipline, and focus away.

288
00:14:41,089 --> 00:14:44,718
Your ego can't take it,
so you're gonna be an Internet celebrity.

289
00:14:44,801 --> 00:14:48,597
Jessica, you wanna quit ballet
because you don't like it anymore? Fine.

290
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,307
But you are not quitting

291
00:14:50,390 --> 00:14:53,936
just because you didn't get exactly
what you wanted when you wanted it.

292
00:14:54,019 --> 00:14:58,106
And certainly not so you can make
YouTube videos of yourself

293
00:14:58,190 --> 00:15:01,568
fooling around with packing materials
in my laundry room.

294
00:15:01,652 --> 00:15:04,821
Becca was on fire… today.

295
00:15:05,739 --> 00:15:06,865
Time to eat.

296
00:15:07,908 --> 00:15:09,159
This is Mary Anne.

297
00:15:09,242 --> 00:15:10,911
Hi, Mr. Ramsey.

298
00:15:11,954 --> 00:15:12,871
Nice to meet you.

299
00:15:22,464 --> 00:15:25,509
Please don't tell the other girls
about my part in the show.

300
00:15:25,592 --> 00:15:28,428
-Jessi, I promise nobody's gonna care--
-I care.

301
00:15:29,262 --> 00:15:32,975
I lied because I was embarrassed,
and now I'm even more embarrassed.

302
00:15:33,725 --> 00:15:34,559
Please.

303
00:15:36,937 --> 00:15:37,938
Okay.

304
00:15:38,021 --> 00:15:39,856
Jessica, now!

305
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:41,274
Coming!

306
00:15:45,445 --> 00:15:48,407
Well, I don't care
who the other kid is, Artie.

307
00:15:49,157 --> 00:15:51,118
No, look, this is inexcusable.

308
00:15:51,201 --> 00:15:53,870
Okay, we are gonna be thinking about
alternative representation.

309
00:15:54,413 --> 00:15:55,998
I gotta go. More soon.

310
00:15:56,081 --> 00:15:58,333
Jess, thanks for coming over.

311
00:15:58,417 --> 00:15:59,543
Is everything okay?

312
00:16:00,043 --> 00:16:03,880
Derek didn't land Kidmander-in-Chief.
But it is their loss.

313
00:16:03,964 --> 00:16:05,549
We are gonna use this momentum

314
00:16:05,632 --> 00:16:08,135
and bounce back
into the next thing. Right, bud?

315
00:16:09,678 --> 00:16:10,804
-Right.
-Yeah.

316
00:16:10,887 --> 00:16:13,015
Really push the comedy
in his shoots today.

317
00:16:14,391 --> 00:16:16,101
Derek, you got this. Right?

318
00:16:16,184 --> 00:16:18,979
We're gonna show them funny
and then right back on top.

319
00:16:19,062 --> 00:16:21,189
-Huh? I love you.
-Okay. Love you too.

320
00:16:21,273 --> 00:16:24,860
Yeah. Chaz here.
I'm sorry, I'm running a little late.

321
00:16:29,031 --> 00:16:30,407
He gets so anxious.

322
00:16:31,533 --> 00:16:34,661
-My career means a lot to him, I guess.
-What about you?

323
00:16:34,745 --> 00:16:36,830
My views were down this month.

324
00:16:37,914 --> 00:16:40,917
And I heard him mention the mortgage
to my manager, so…

325
00:16:42,210 --> 00:16:44,004
You know what? Let's just do this.

326
00:16:45,255 --> 00:16:48,175
Derek had the weight of the world
on his shoulders.

327
00:16:49,676 --> 00:16:52,387
But a ballet dancer
is supposed to look weightless.

328
00:17:00,812 --> 00:17:02,189
What are you doing?

329
00:17:02,272 --> 00:17:05,442
Changement. Come on.
Put down the camera and join me.

330
00:17:07,861 --> 00:17:08,695
Come on.

331
00:17:18,538 --> 00:17:21,083
Okay, so what do you feel like doing
right now?

332
00:17:21,166 --> 00:17:23,585
What do you want
more than anything else in the world?

333
00:17:25,128 --> 00:17:26,004
Ice cream!

334
00:17:27,964 --> 00:17:28,840
Mmm.

335
00:17:31,176 --> 00:17:34,513
We probably should have let it freeze
a bit longer, but I couldn't wait.

336
00:17:34,596 --> 00:17:36,264
How do you know how to do this anyway?

337
00:17:36,348 --> 00:17:38,642
My mom. It's her go-to rainy day activity.

338
00:17:39,351 --> 00:17:42,604
Your mom lets you have ice cream?
Even with all that ballet?

339
00:17:42,687 --> 00:17:43,605
Of course.

340
00:17:44,481 --> 00:17:45,357
I'm home.

341
00:17:45,857 --> 00:17:47,984
She just wants me to be a kid.

342
00:17:48,068 --> 00:17:49,111
You know?

343
00:17:49,194 --> 00:17:52,989
Your mom sounds nice. And fun.

344
00:17:53,073 --> 00:17:55,659
-Hey, buddy. What you got there?
-Hey.

345
00:17:55,742 --> 00:17:58,537
Jessi taught me
how to make ice cream in jars.

346
00:17:58,620 --> 00:18:00,539
We used milk but my throat feels fine.

347
00:18:00,622 --> 00:18:02,749
Can't wait to see the footage.

348
00:18:03,917 --> 00:18:04,960
Oh.

349
00:18:06,837 --> 00:18:07,921
We didn't film it.

350
00:18:10,173 --> 00:18:11,091
You didn't film it?

351
00:18:12,717 --> 00:18:15,262
We thought it would be nice
to do something just for fun.

352
00:18:15,345 --> 00:18:16,304
Guys.

353
00:18:16,972 --> 00:18:19,599
Look, recording doesn't make
something not fun.

354
00:18:21,017 --> 00:18:24,729
I'm gonna have to talk
to your manager about this.

355
00:18:27,149 --> 00:18:30,318
My manager?
Obviously, I didn't have a manager.

356
00:18:31,736 --> 00:18:34,406
Which meant there was
only one person Chaz could call.

357
00:18:38,743 --> 00:18:40,662
-Hello?
-Kristy Thomas here.

358
00:18:40,745 --> 00:18:42,873
Founder and president
of The Baby-Sitters Club.

359
00:18:44,541 --> 00:18:47,377
Make as much content
as you want, Mr. Masters.

360
00:18:47,460 --> 00:18:50,505
Obviously you and Derek
have a good thing going here.

361
00:18:50,589 --> 00:18:53,592
But my thing is babysitting,

362
00:18:53,675 --> 00:18:55,844
not production assisting.

363
00:18:56,678 --> 00:18:58,346
It's just a lot.

364
00:18:59,431 --> 00:19:02,267
You know, doing this all on my own,
worrying about Derek.

365
00:19:02,893 --> 00:19:05,145
-His career. The future.
-I get it.

366
00:19:05,228 --> 00:19:07,105
I was raised by a single mother.

367
00:19:07,898 --> 00:19:08,732
But, uh,

368
00:19:10,150 --> 00:19:12,277
don't get short with my babysitters, okay?

369
00:19:14,654 --> 00:19:15,488
Yeah.

370
00:19:18,325 --> 00:19:20,535
Oh, sorry. It's my work line.

371
00:19:20,619 --> 00:19:22,829
Please. I understand.

372
00:19:34,758 --> 00:19:36,176
Want to try some homemade ice cream?

373
00:19:38,094 --> 00:19:40,430
Chaz wasn't a bad guy.

374
00:19:41,598 --> 00:19:44,434
He'd just forgotten
that while Derek might have a career,

375
00:19:45,227 --> 00:19:46,353
he was still a kid.

376
00:19:48,939 --> 00:19:52,817
And sometimes he just needed to do things
because they made him happy.

377
00:20:01,618 --> 00:20:03,286
She was wonderful.

378
00:20:03,370 --> 00:20:06,414
I knew she was good,
but I'd never seen her like this.

379
00:20:06,498 --> 00:20:07,916
What had changed?

380
00:20:11,002 --> 00:20:14,839
And then I caught a glimpse of her smile
when she wasn't even facing the audience.

381
00:20:15,507 --> 00:20:19,719
And I knew why. Because she felt
just like me when I was three years old.

382
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,432
Because she felt like
she was going to twirl forever.

383
00:20:24,516 --> 00:20:26,393
-Look at her!
-I know.

384
00:20:29,646 --> 00:20:31,982
Ready, ladies?
Shoulders back.

385
00:21:01,344 --> 00:21:03,805
It was the best I had danced
in a long time,

386
00:21:03,888 --> 00:21:05,265
even if no one noticed me,

387
00:21:05,348 --> 00:21:08,601
because I realized the only person
I needed to dance for was…

388
00:21:08,685 --> 00:21:10,729
-Jessi!
-Jessi!

389
00:21:12,564 --> 00:21:14,232
I stan! And your tiara!

390
00:21:14,316 --> 00:21:17,444
Charlotte, thank you!
Myriah, I love purple.

391
00:21:17,527 --> 00:21:20,447
Don't get mad. I know you didn't want us
to come, but I thought--

392
00:21:20,530 --> 00:21:23,658
You were amazing!
Serious Balanchine vibes.

393
00:21:23,742 --> 00:21:26,870
The way you were the icicle, chills.
Literal and figurative.

394
00:21:26,953 --> 00:21:28,371
Thank you, guys.

395
00:21:28,455 --> 00:21:29,706
Mal, don't cry.

396
00:21:29,789 --> 00:21:31,249
Aw!

397
00:21:31,333 --> 00:21:35,420
Um, I have many, many gushing points about
what an unbelievable athlete you are,

398
00:21:35,503 --> 00:21:37,130
but the children are scattering.

399
00:21:37,213 --> 00:21:38,631
Oh, um…

400
00:21:39,215 --> 00:21:40,342
Dylan? Peter?

401
00:21:40,425 --> 00:21:41,885
I know you didn't want us to come,

402
00:21:41,968 --> 00:21:44,471
but I just thought everyone
needed to see what a star you are.

403
00:21:44,554 --> 00:21:46,890
That we're always gonna show up for you,
no matter what.

404
00:21:47,432 --> 00:21:49,726
Hold on, I have more notes
in my phone that I think--

405
00:21:54,272 --> 00:21:57,901
Wait, how did you all get here?
Don't tell me Kristy can secretly drive.

406
00:21:57,984 --> 00:22:00,445
Trust me, she can't. I called your mom.

407
00:22:02,030 --> 00:22:04,282
She agreed that
the whole team should be here.

408
00:22:04,366 --> 00:22:05,450
Thank you, Mom.

409
00:22:06,034 --> 00:22:08,203
Oh, honey.
What's driving a van to Stamford?

410
00:22:08,286 --> 00:22:10,622
I can do it in my sleep. And have.

411
00:22:10,705 --> 00:22:14,376
-Baby, I am so proud of you.

412
00:22:15,168 --> 00:22:17,921
-You were amazing, hon. Congratulations.
-Thanks, Dad.

413
00:22:21,966 --> 00:22:24,803
-These are for you.
-I can't believe you came.

414
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:27,263
I told my Dad I had to.

415
00:22:27,347 --> 00:22:29,808
I had to see you dance at least once
before we moved to LA.

416
00:22:29,891 --> 00:22:30,809
LA?

417
00:22:31,393 --> 00:22:34,229
My new agent says it's
the only place to be if I want to act.

418
00:22:34,312 --> 00:22:35,438
I gotta try, right?

419
00:22:36,106 --> 00:22:37,107
-Yeah.

420
00:22:37,190 --> 00:22:40,110
Seriously, though,
you looked so great up there. And happy.

421
00:22:40,193 --> 00:22:41,027
I was.

422
00:22:41,111 --> 00:22:46,658
It didn't matter if I wasn't the star,
or even the best dancer at school. Yet.

423
00:22:46,741 --> 00:22:48,952
Okay, Stoneybrook group, follow me!

424
00:22:49,035 --> 00:22:53,123
I didn't need to be so worried
about the future. I was just a kid.

425
00:22:55,041 --> 00:22:57,794
-Here we go!
-Here you are!

426
00:22:57,877 --> 00:23:00,046
-Thank you!
-That looks so good, okay!

427
00:23:01,339 --> 00:23:06,636
And thanks to my friends,
and my family, that was all I had to be.

428
00:23:07,220 --> 00:23:08,263
Let's get a picture.

429
00:23:08,763 --> 00:23:10,890
Did you have that with you the whole time?

430
00:23:10,974 --> 00:23:11,850
You know it.

431
00:23:12,934 --> 00:23:15,019
Okay, one, two, three…
