00:00:04,167 --> 00:00:07,167
"Previously on High School Musical
The Musical, The Series..."

2
00:00:07,375 --> 00:00:08,959
I heard homecoming was eventful

3
00:00:09,042 --> 00:00:13,626
but I am glad Kourt and I had a
girls' night with a chaperone

4
00:00:13,751 --> 00:00:15,876
who I am pretty sure met
somebody

5
00:00:15,999 --> 00:00:20,751
Sure, the night had a few bumps
but everything is going to be okay

6
00:00:20,876 --> 00:00:22,876
Miss Jenn, please come to my
office before the opening bell

7
00:00:22,999 --> 00:00:24,292
first thing Monday morning

8
00:00:29,999 --> 00:00:31,751
As you can see, this puts the
administration

9
00:00:31,876 --> 00:00:33,334
in a very awkward position

10
00:00:33,459 --> 00:00:34,792
I understand

11
00:00:34,959 --> 00:00:36,584
Which is why we have
a process for this sort of thing

12
00:00:36,709 --> 00:00:38,125
I understand that, too

13
00:00:38,375 --> 00:00:40,792
Good morning, Miss Jenn
You coming to the photo shoot?

14
00:00:40,959 --> 00:00:43,250
You go ahead and get
started without me, Carlos

15
00:00:43,375 --> 00:00:44,709
Okay

16
00:00:44,999 --> 00:00:48,584
Here you go. You might want to
pack some things up. Just in case

17
00:00:56,959 --> 00:00:58,667
Great, that sounds like a plan
Thank you

18
00:00:58,792 --> 00:01:00,083
- Okay
- Check on camera

19
00:01:00,209 --> 00:01:01,542
Got it

20
00:01:01,876 --> 00:01:04,584
Oh my gosh, you look perfect! Yes!

21
00:01:04,751 --> 00:01:06,918
Okay, people, let's do this!

22
00:01:07,125 --> 00:01:09,751
- Oh, my God! Ricky
- What?

23
00:01:10,626 --> 00:01:14,542
I cannot...
There's... so much to talk about

24
00:01:14,876 --> 00:01:16,167
Wait, what's funny?

25
00:01:18,542 --> 00:01:21,375
Yes, it's picture day for
the cover of our program

26
00:01:21,751 --> 00:01:25,584
I was in Photography Club for a
year in middle school, so... Click!

27
00:01:27,918 --> 00:01:29,375
Oh, my God

28
00:01:29,792 --> 00:01:32,375
Hey, you okay with this?

29
00:01:32,667 --> 00:01:34,083
I do not know how to say it

30
00:01:35,125 --> 00:01:36,459
Just say it

31
00:01:37,334 --> 00:01:38,751
I am home

32
00:01:39,459 --> 00:01:41,626
Let's get some air, Wildcats

33
00:01:43,250 --> 00:01:44,792
Good morning, Gina

34
00:01:46,459 --> 00:01:49,751
- Pretty good, right?
- Troy, you look the best

35
00:01:49,876 --> 00:01:51,167
Thank you. I try

36
00:01:51,292 --> 00:01:53,375
Okay, guys. We are going to
get one in for practice, okay?

37
00:01:53,501 --> 00:01:55,501
We're all going to jump
on the count of three

38
00:01:55,626 --> 00:01:59,542
- Ready? One, two, three
- Oh, my gosh

39
00:01:59,667 --> 00:02:02,334
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry, you all. Sorry

40
00:02:02,459 --> 00:02:04,375
One, two, three

41
00:02:05,417 --> 00:02:07,209
- Wait, what happened?
- Where to begin?

42
00:02:07,334 --> 00:02:08,667
I think you went early

43
00:02:08,792 --> 00:02:10,125
Are we jumping
on three or after three?

44
00:02:10,292 --> 00:02:11,626
Yes, the count of three, ready?

45
00:02:11,751 --> 00:02:13,042
No, man, you need some
new words

46
00:02:13,167 --> 00:02:14,709
I think I broke a heel

47
00:02:14,834 --> 00:02:16,417
You guys, this is not that hard

48
00:02:16,626 --> 00:02:18,709
You smile
you leave the earth, you land

49
00:02:18,834 --> 00:02:20,999
It is a little hard to smile when
we do not even know the plan

50
00:02:21,083 --> 00:02:23,042
I cannot look at Ricky
Is that a problem?

51
00:02:23,626 --> 00:02:27,584
- Okay, let's take a five
- On five or after five?

52
00:02:28,667 --> 00:02:30,167
I think he is mad at us.

53
00:02:41,667 --> 00:02:44,667
- Hi
- Hi

54
00:02:45,667 --> 00:02:47,918
- I am a smidge confused
- I figured

55
00:02:49,209 --> 00:02:50,834
What happened to the plan?

56
00:02:50,959 --> 00:02:52,250
You made me take you to
homecoming

57
00:02:52,375 --> 00:02:53,751
and then you poured
a drink on my head

58
00:02:53,876 --> 00:02:55,792
Yes, it was pretty complicated

59
00:02:55,959 --> 00:02:57,417
Yes, but if there was ever
a next step

60
00:02:57,542 --> 00:03:00,042
I think I am missing it, because
I am still the understudy

61
00:03:00,167 --> 00:03:02,125
and you seem pretty happy
So, what changed?

62
00:03:02,417 --> 00:03:06,375
Nothing. Everything?
Look, I don't know

63
00:03:06,501 --> 00:03:08,334
I thought you wanted
this as bad as I did

64
00:03:08,459 --> 00:03:10,375
It was more like
I felt like I had to get it

65
00:03:10,501 --> 00:03:12,125
- That is the same thing!
- Guys?

66
00:03:12,250 --> 00:03:14,501
- So, do you care about Ricky?
- And what if I do?

67
00:03:14,834 --> 00:03:16,584
- Guys?
- Not now!

68
00:03:19,626 --> 00:03:21,834
Miss Jenn, I do not think
I can stall much longer

69
00:03:21,959 --> 00:03:23,250
Are you coming?

70
00:03:23,375 --> 00:03:24,709
Carlos, I was just about to call you

71
00:03:24,959 --> 00:03:27,083
- Is everything okay?
- Everything is fine

72
00:03:27,292 --> 00:03:30,125
except that I may be out of a job
in twenty-four hours

73
00:03:30,250 --> 00:03:33,375
Miss Jenn, I cannot see your face
so I do not know if you are kidding

74
00:03:34,834 --> 00:03:36,125
Oh, my God!

75
00:03:36,250 --> 00:03:37,584
Keep your voice down, honey

76
00:03:37,709 --> 00:03:39,000
What happened?

77
00:03:39,167 --> 00:03:42,709
Carlos, I may have exaggerated
one or two credits on my resume

78
00:03:42,834 --> 00:03:46,292
Principal Gutierrez is a little too
literal for my taste, but here we are

79
00:03:46,459 --> 00:03:47,834
Where is "here"?

80
00:03:47,959 --> 00:03:49,792
The important thing is that you
keep this train on the tracks

81
00:03:49,959 --> 00:03:51,250
Hopefully, everything will be
cleared up

82
00:03:51,375 --> 00:03:52,876
when I sit before the school board
tomorrow, okay?

83
00:03:52,999 --> 00:03:54,292
Wait, what?

84
00:03:54,417 --> 00:03:55,751
Keep rehearsal on
after school today

85
00:03:55,876 --> 00:03:57,834
and do not speak a word
of this to anyone

86
00:03:57,959 --> 00:04:00,083
In the theater, morale is everything

87
00:04:01,459 --> 00:04:04,083
Miss Jenn, if you would

88
00:04:05,999 --> 00:04:07,417
Miss Jenn, wait!

89
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,667
Trust the process

90
00:04:18,125 --> 00:04:20,209
Thought it did great, you know?
Did you guys have fun?

91
00:04:20,334 --> 00:04:22,459
Have you heard anything from
Carlos or Miss Jenn?

92
00:04:22,584 --> 00:04:23,918
They are never late

93
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,459
It is weird. He is not
responding to texts

94
00:04:25,751 --> 00:04:27,751
Did we get a good photo
for the program cover?

95
00:04:27,876 --> 00:04:29,542
That is a question
I am not ready to answer

96
00:04:29,667 --> 00:04:32,626
Hey, jumping on cue is much more
complicated than it sounds, okay?

97
00:04:32,751 --> 00:04:34,375
- Here
- Okay

98
00:04:34,709 --> 00:04:36,042
Hey, speaking of complicated...

99
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,083
So... What happened with Gina
on Friday?

100
00:04:39,667 --> 00:04:41,375
- I am not sure yet
- Okay

101
00:04:41,501 --> 00:04:43,792
but did you find out what happened
with her and EJ at the dance?

102
00:04:43,918 --> 00:04:45,959
Yes, not sure about that either

103
00:04:46,292 --> 00:04:48,834
Okay, should I just live
vicariously through someone else?

104
00:04:49,125 --> 00:04:50,626
Guys, let us just start

105
00:04:50,751 --> 00:04:52,334
Flip to When there Was Me and
You in your script

106
00:04:52,459 --> 00:04:54,584
Should we maybe wait until
Miss Jenn gets here?

107
00:04:54,709 --> 00:04:56,709
Well, I do not know
Apparently nobody is in charge

108
00:04:56,834 --> 00:05:01,042
Okay, people, let us stage
a number. I am late

109
00:05:01,167 --> 00:05:02,501
Is Miss Jenn coming?

110
00:05:02,626 --> 00:05:04,999
Miss Jenn had a small personal
matter to attend to

111
00:05:05,083 --> 00:05:06,709
and will not be here today

112
00:05:06,834 --> 00:05:08,751
- Is everything all right?
- Good question

113
00:05:09,292 --> 00:05:10,876
Everything is fine

114
00:05:10,999 --> 00:05:12,959
Why would you guys
even ask that?

115
00:05:16,751 --> 00:05:18,042
Of course, today is the day

116
00:05:18,167 --> 00:05:21,000
I am supposed to stage the boldest
concept of the entire show

117
00:05:21,167 --> 00:05:23,667
The good news is
the idea kind of sells itself

118
00:05:24,459 --> 00:05:28,083
Okay. Gabriella, I need you
downstage on this mark

119
00:05:28,209 --> 00:05:29,999
Troy, stage right

120
00:05:30,083 --> 00:05:31,876
Chad, stage left box

121
00:05:31,999 --> 00:05:34,209
Other boys, find a box

122
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,501
Are they onstage
with me while I am singing?

123
00:05:37,667 --> 00:05:40,000
Yes, they will be frozen
in various poses to come

124
00:05:40,125 --> 00:05:41,626
As the ballad builds, Nini

125
00:05:41,751 --> 00:05:43,584
you will be wandering through
a forest of boys

126
00:05:43,709 --> 00:05:45,417
Wait, what does that mean?

127
00:05:45,542 --> 00:05:47,334
Do you know what a forest
of trees looks like?

128
00:05:47,542 --> 00:05:49,626
- I do
- Okay, but with boys

129
00:05:49,876 --> 00:05:52,834
And, no, I am sorry, why?

130
00:05:53,709 --> 00:05:55,667
Because your heart
has just been shattered

131
00:05:55,792 --> 00:05:58,709
and you can not stop thinking
about how amazing Troy is

132
00:05:58,834 --> 00:06:00,125
Let's go!

133
00:06:01,417 --> 00:06:03,792
No. I am sorry
but at this point in the show

134
00:06:03,918 --> 00:06:05,876
Troy just sold me out
to his teammates

135
00:06:05,999 --> 00:06:07,292
Well, she has got a point

136
00:06:07,417 --> 00:06:09,167
What Troy did was kind of
unforgivable

137
00:06:09,292 --> 00:06:12,250
Respectfully, Carlos, I think the last
thing anyone wants in this moment

138
00:06:12,375 --> 00:06:14,501
is four more versions of him

139
00:06:14,626 --> 00:06:16,083
Maybe she could chop down
the trees

140
00:06:16,209 --> 00:06:18,209
Or what if she is surrounded
by a forest of loving

141
00:06:18,334 --> 00:06:20,792
and supportive sisters, okay?

142
00:06:21,334 --> 00:06:22,918
Hey, that is a good idea

143
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,292
Is it better if she just
sings a solo acoustic version?

144
00:06:28,209 --> 00:06:29,751
- Guys
- I vote for that!

145
00:06:29,918 --> 00:06:32,334
Okay, you guys
this is not a democracy!

146
00:06:34,959 --> 00:06:38,959
Carlos, are you okay?
Because it is not that deep

147
00:06:39,042 --> 00:06:40,918
We can all just come
back when Miss Jenn gets here

148
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,250
Well, she is not here, and I do not
know if she is ever coming back

149
00:06:44,042 --> 00:06:45,501
Wait, what?

150
00:06:45,626 --> 00:06:47,250
Is this a joke?

151
00:06:48,417 --> 00:06:50,209
She is in deep trouble, you guys

152
00:06:50,876 --> 00:06:52,876
They are saying that she lied on
her job application

153
00:06:52,999 --> 00:06:54,292
and there is a school board
meeting

154
00:06:54,417 --> 00:06:55,751
in less than twenty-four hours

155
00:06:55,876 --> 00:06:57,709
and she is probably
going to lose her job

156
00:06:58,292 --> 00:06:59,792
I was not supposed to tell
any of you

157
00:06:59,918 --> 00:07:02,876
but I am trying to do my best here

158
00:07:04,042 --> 00:07:05,417
I cannot believe it

159
00:07:05,542 --> 00:07:07,125
What are we even doing in
rehearsal?

160
00:07:07,250 --> 00:07:09,667
Well, wait, how can we have a
show if we do not have a teacher?

161
00:07:11,042 --> 00:07:12,751
You know you could have told me

162
00:07:12,876 --> 00:07:14,209
Miss Jenn asked me not to

163
00:07:14,584 --> 00:07:16,417
Carlos. What else
are you not telling us?

164
00:07:16,542 --> 00:07:18,459
Hey, let's all
breathe for a second

165
00:07:18,584 --> 00:07:20,334
- Do you want to be in charge?
- She did not say that

166
00:07:20,459 --> 00:07:23,501
You know what?
I need a minute

167
00:07:25,459 --> 00:07:26,999
Right there with you

168
00:07:28,167 --> 00:07:29,501
- Honestly, same
- Wait. Wait

169
00:07:29,626 --> 00:07:30,959
Guys, wait

170
00:07:31,042 --> 00:07:32,375
- I...
- Wait

171
00:07:32,501 --> 00:07:33,999
This is going to be
in rehearsal when?

172
00:07:35,250 --> 00:07:36,876
Guys

173
00:07:39,167 --> 00:07:40,501
I am sorry, Carlos

174
00:07:41,501 --> 00:07:45,209
Rehearsals are officially
cancelled until further notice!

175
00:07:54,542 --> 00:07:56,250
Well, that fell apart fast

176
00:07:56,459 --> 00:07:58,834
Nothing fell apart
It is all going to be okay

177
00:07:59,584 --> 00:08:01,542
Do you know something
I don't know?

178
00:08:02,918 --> 00:08:05,459
She is Miss Jenn
She is unstoppable

179
00:08:05,709 --> 00:08:07,459
The whole show is unstoppable

180
00:08:08,417 --> 00:08:09,959
But what if it does stop?

181
00:08:10,042 --> 00:08:13,959
Let us not go there. It cannot stop
We still have too much work to do

182
00:08:15,459 --> 00:08:16,792
Yes

183
00:08:19,334 --> 00:08:23,709
Hey... Could I hear
that acoustic song idea?

184
00:08:24,792 --> 00:08:26,083
Sounded cool

185
00:08:27,667 --> 00:08:31,876
- You serious?
- I mean, got the time

186
00:08:36,250 --> 00:08:38,042
Benjamin Mazzara

187
00:08:38,167 --> 00:08:40,709
Carlos... Surname

188
00:08:40,999 --> 00:08:43,042
I assume you know
what is happening to Miss Jenn?

189
00:08:43,501 --> 00:08:45,999
I may have heard a rumor
in the faculty lounge

190
00:08:46,083 --> 00:08:48,125
And I assume you are happy?

191
00:08:48,250 --> 00:08:49,959
Not on the outside

192
00:08:50,042 --> 00:08:52,334
Look, everyone is fudged
on a resume before

193
00:08:52,459 --> 00:08:53,792
I have not

194
00:08:53,918 --> 00:08:56,125
The real question is
who narced on Miss Jenn?

195
00:08:56,501 --> 00:08:59,042
Wait, are you suggesting that I had
something to do with this?

196
00:08:59,167 --> 00:09:00,834
Are you admitting that you did?

197
00:09:00,959 --> 00:09:03,209
Of course not
Look, kid

198
00:09:04,125 --> 00:09:06,209
Has it occurred to you that Miss
Jenn is responsible

199
00:09:06,334 --> 00:09:08,125
for her own untimely demise?

200
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,334
"Where are we going right now?"

201
00:09:10,459 --> 00:09:11,792
"I want to find Nini"

202
00:09:11,918 --> 00:09:13,501
EJ I do not think you are the
person to comfort her right now

203
00:09:13,626 --> 00:09:15,167
You are not her boyfriend anymore

204
00:09:15,292 --> 00:09:16,751
Yes, I know

205
00:09:16,876 --> 00:09:18,250
I am sure it will be fine
Just got to give it a minute

206
00:09:18,375 --> 00:09:19,709
Yes. Yes, it will be fine

207
00:09:19,834 --> 00:09:21,292
- Nini, can we talk?
- Right now?

208
00:09:21,417 --> 00:09:23,542
Yes, I will get to why in a sec, but...

209
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,459
Miss Jenn is not the only person
with secrets

210
00:09:28,584 --> 00:09:30,751
I really need to get some stuff off
my chest

211
00:09:31,375 --> 00:09:32,709
Like what?

212
00:09:34,125 --> 00:09:35,751
How much time you have?

213
00:09:35,876 --> 00:09:37,542
- I think I am going to...
- Yes

214
00:09:44,167 --> 00:09:47,167
"I thought you were my fairy tale"

215
00:09:47,334 --> 00:09:50,375
"My dream when
I am not sleeping"

216
00:09:50,667 --> 00:09:53,083
"A wish upon a star"

217
00:09:53,250 --> 00:09:56,000
"That is coming true"

218
00:09:57,375 --> 00:10:00,417
"And everybody else could tell"

219
00:10:00,542 --> 00:10:04,999
"That I confused
my feelings with the truth"

220
00:10:05,709 --> 00:10:08,375
"There was me and you"

221
00:10:10,876 --> 00:10:14,751
I have been trying to figure out
how to apologize for a while now

222
00:10:15,501 --> 00:10:18,000
Mostly to figure out how to make
you stop hating me

223
00:10:18,125 --> 00:10:21,042
I do not hate you EJ, I just do not
trust you. You cannot...

224
00:10:21,167 --> 00:10:24,000
No, you do not have to explain
yourself. I have messed up

225
00:10:24,125 --> 00:10:27,042
More than you know
Just hear me out, please

226
00:10:28,167 --> 00:10:29,501
Go ahead

227
00:10:30,751 --> 00:10:34,083
Okay... Okay, here goes

228
00:10:35,375 --> 00:10:37,542
I tried to bribe Miss Jenn into
giving me the part of Troy

229
00:10:37,667 --> 00:10:39,751
when I thought Ricky
dropped out of the show

230
00:10:40,667 --> 00:10:41,999
There is more

231
00:10:42,667 --> 00:10:43,999
I went to homecoming with Gina

232
00:10:44,083 --> 00:10:48,125
because I thought it might put a
wedge in between certain people

233
00:10:48,375 --> 00:10:52,626
and maybe it would...
I do not know

234
00:10:52,751 --> 00:10:54,626
end with me and you
back together

235
00:10:54,876 --> 00:10:56,501
How would that even work?

236
00:10:56,834 --> 00:10:58,209
I never really understood

237
00:10:58,375 --> 00:11:00,334
so I guess while
I am confessing to things

238
00:11:00,459 --> 00:11:03,542
despite the four-point-three GPA
I am actually an idiot

239
00:11:04,250 --> 00:11:05,751
And I am sorry

240
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,792
I do not really know
what you want from me

241
00:11:09,125 --> 00:11:10,584
Do you want me to forgive you

242
00:11:10,709 --> 00:11:14,375
or be instantly okay with all of this
or what?

243
00:11:15,334 --> 00:11:16,667
But mostly, I just do not know

244
00:11:16,792 --> 00:11:18,375
why you are telling me all of this
right now

245
00:11:18,501 --> 00:11:20,250
Because it is over, Nini

246
00:11:20,918 --> 00:11:22,209
The show

247
00:11:22,334 --> 00:11:23,876
My parents used to be
on the school board

248
00:11:23,999 --> 00:11:26,584
If there is a hearing tomorrow
Miss Jenn is a done deal

249
00:11:28,584 --> 00:11:30,876
I am sorry that you will not get
to play Gabriella

250
00:11:31,542 --> 00:11:35,999
The audience does not know what
they are missing, but I do

251
00:11:40,209 --> 00:11:42,999
I also wrote you
a really weird song once

252
00:11:43,125 --> 00:11:47,501
But, I think that is it for
now. Okay

253
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,125
"I am only left with used-to-be's"

254
00:11:59,292 --> 00:12:01,999
"And once upon a song"

255
00:12:02,083 --> 00:12:05,709
"Now I know you are not
a fairy tale"

256
00:12:05,834 --> 00:12:08,834
"And dreams are meant for
sleeping"

257
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,459
"And wishes on a star"

258
00:12:11,584 --> 00:12:14,167
"Just do not come true"

259
00:12:15,584 --> 00:12:18,876
"because now even I can tell"

260
00:12:18,999 --> 00:12:23,417
"That I confused
my feelings with the truth"

261
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,876
"because I liked the view"

262
00:12:27,042 --> 00:12:31,334
"When there was me and you"

263
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,000
So, yes
There is that

264
00:12:42,459 --> 00:12:44,542
That was really good, Ricky

265
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,584
Gosh, I would kill to play guitar
like that

266
00:12:48,999 --> 00:12:51,417
Okay, but you are good at
like, everything else

267
00:12:51,542 --> 00:12:53,042
so I do not want to hear it

268
00:12:53,209 --> 00:12:55,167
What's "everything else?"

269
00:12:55,292 --> 00:13:00,334
You know, acting, dancing
throwing drinks in people's faces

270
00:13:01,999 --> 00:13:04,959
I was sort of hoping you had
forgotten about that

271
00:13:05,667 --> 00:13:08,417
Yes, I kind of cannot forget
about anything

272
00:13:08,542 --> 00:13:09,918
that happened at homecoming

273
00:13:13,125 --> 00:13:14,834
Should we be doing something?

274
00:13:16,375 --> 00:13:18,876
- What do you mean?
- Like to help Miss Jenn

275
00:13:19,999 --> 00:13:23,501
Like, a letter-writing campaign?

276
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,626
In one night?

277
00:13:25,751 --> 00:13:28,042
Yes
I do not know

278
00:13:34,417 --> 00:13:38,125
Miss Jenn, I was so happy
to hear from you

279
00:13:39,417 --> 00:13:42,125
You said you got something for
me. Tell me it's good news

280
00:13:42,709 --> 00:13:45,209
It is complicated. Please sit

281
00:13:48,626 --> 00:13:53,709
Carlos, if tomorrow's board
meeting goes the way I think it will

282
00:13:54,125 --> 00:13:58,792
you guys are going to hear a lot of
not great things about me

283
00:13:59,167 --> 00:14:01,209
- No, we do not...
- It is all true

284
00:14:01,334 --> 00:14:02,667
What is?

285
00:14:04,667 --> 00:14:07,959
I never told you guys my real last
name because I was embarrassed

286
00:14:08,167 --> 00:14:10,375
at how little I have actually
accomplished

287
00:14:13,834 --> 00:14:16,125
I am a fake teacher, Carlos

288
00:14:18,083 --> 00:14:21,083
Most of the learning that has been
happening in that rehearsal room

289
00:14:22,292 --> 00:14:24,209
has been all of you teaching me

290
00:14:26,459 --> 00:14:28,584
No, that is not true

291
00:14:29,083 --> 00:14:31,334
It's the only part of this
that ever was

292
00:14:33,083 --> 00:14:37,751
Here
It is my director's file

293
00:14:37,918 --> 00:14:42,334
Audition notes, staging ideas
everything. It's all there

294
00:14:42,584 --> 00:14:44,042
But I cannot direct the show

295
00:14:44,751 --> 00:14:48,834
It is not for you, honey
It is for your next teacher

296
00:14:50,209 --> 00:14:51,584
Wh...

297
00:14:54,834 --> 00:14:57,626
I just hope she loves you guys half
as much as I do

298
00:15:03,459 --> 00:15:07,876
It is weird not being at rehearsal
How stupid is that?

299
00:15:08,876 --> 00:15:10,334
What if we just did
the show without her?

300
00:15:10,918 --> 00:15:14,292
We cannot even take a picture
without her. No offense

301
00:15:14,918 --> 00:15:19,083
No, you are right, dude
Down here, Kaden!

302
00:15:22,250 --> 00:15:24,834
Hope it is cool
I invited Stef and Rico

303
00:15:27,167 --> 00:15:28,584
What is up, guys?

304
00:15:29,751 --> 00:15:32,501
When you did not text back
I reached out to some peeps

305
00:15:32,876 --> 00:15:37,834
I wanted some company
tonight. It is open?

306
00:15:45,083 --> 00:15:46,417
Hey, guys

307
00:15:46,542 --> 00:15:48,876
Okay, how many people
are coming?

308
00:15:49,834 --> 00:15:51,125
That should be it

309
00:15:51,250 --> 00:15:52,959
Actually, give it a minute

310
00:16:07,834 --> 00:16:10,751
This is a terrible party
There are not even pretzels

311
00:16:10,876 --> 00:16:12,250
What are we all doing here?

312
00:16:12,375 --> 00:16:15,417
We all ended up in the same
basement after a really bad day

313
00:16:15,542 --> 00:16:17,542
so someone should say something

314
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,876
Fine. I will say something

315
00:16:19,999 --> 00:16:22,209
- I am mad at Miss Jenn
- Why?

316
00:16:22,667 --> 00:16:24,751
Because she has got a couple
skeletons in her closet?

317
00:16:24,876 --> 00:16:27,125
No, because she is giving up

318
00:16:27,375 --> 00:16:30,667
She was the first teacher to not
see me as a punchline

319
00:16:30,792 --> 00:16:32,250
and now she is not even
a real teacher?

320
00:16:32,417 --> 00:16:34,209
- Define "real teacher"
- He has got a point

321
00:16:34,334 --> 00:16:35,918
- Does he, though?
- Guys

322
00:16:36,042 --> 00:16:38,000
So, why are we all here then?

323
00:16:38,125 --> 00:16:40,667
Yes, good question
This is a waste of time

324
00:16:42,542 --> 00:16:45,792
Honestly?
Because she gave me a shot

325
00:16:47,334 --> 00:16:50,000
And it has been a long time since
someone gave me a shot

326
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,334
Yes

327
00:16:52,459 --> 00:16:53,876
She gave me a voice

328
00:16:54,042 --> 00:16:56,125
Yes, and now nobody
is going to get to hear it

329
00:16:56,250 --> 00:16:57,667
because Miss Jenn screwed up

330
00:16:57,792 --> 00:17:00,083
Okay, does anyone here
actually care

331
00:17:00,209 --> 00:17:04,626
if her past is a little bit sketchy?
Anyone?

332
00:17:06,918 --> 00:17:09,042
- I do
- Seriously, dude?

333
00:17:09,167 --> 00:17:10,792
What, because you
live some perfect life?

334
00:17:10,959 --> 00:17:15,999
Not at all. Because she put our
show in jeopardy

335
00:17:17,125 --> 00:17:20,000
And now we are all here, maybe
for the last time, together

336
00:17:20,751 --> 00:17:26,292
And for some of us, this
has become... I do not know

337
00:17:27,959 --> 00:17:29,250
Family

338
00:17:32,250 --> 00:17:33,584
What team?

339
00:17:33,918 --> 00:17:35,626
Wildcats

340
00:17:36,459 --> 00:17:39,542
Okay, Wildcats
So, what are we doing about it?

341
00:17:46,167 --> 00:17:47,501
Jennifer?

342
00:17:47,626 --> 00:17:50,334
Mike. Hi
What are you doing here?

343
00:17:50,501 --> 00:17:51,834
Just came to support my kid

344
00:17:51,959 --> 00:17:53,250
There is a school board meeting

345
00:17:53,375 --> 00:17:55,125
and the new
drama teacher is in hot water

346
00:17:55,250 --> 00:17:56,667
- Your kid?
- Yes

347
00:17:56,792 --> 00:17:58,083
His name is Ricky

348
00:17:58,209 --> 00:18:00,000
Would you believe he scored the
lead in the play?

349
00:18:03,167 --> 00:18:05,042
Good luck in there, Miss Jenn

350
00:18:06,999 --> 00:18:14,209
- Miss... Jennifer
- Let's talk after maybe?

351
00:18:15,292 --> 00:18:21,167
- Yes. Sounds good
- Okay, okay

352
00:18:23,918 --> 00:18:25,584
Miss Jenn, it may not surprise you

353
00:18:25,709 --> 00:18:27,751
to learn that we have heard earfuls

354
00:18:27,876 --> 00:18:31,751
about your unorthodox style ever
since you got to East High

355
00:18:31,918 --> 00:18:34,125
Personally, I always chalked it up
to the well-known fact

356
00:18:34,250 --> 00:18:36,751
that people in the dramatic arts
are insane

357
00:18:38,918 --> 00:18:40,209
Thank you

358
00:18:40,667 --> 00:18:45,167
But now, we have news
that your resumé is exaggerated

359
00:18:45,876 --> 00:18:50,459
Your teaching credential is from
some obscure online university

360
00:18:50,584 --> 00:18:55,792
and even your official name might
be some version of a stage name

361
00:18:56,417 --> 00:18:58,083
What do you say to this charge?

362
00:18:58,375 --> 00:19:01,000
I have always done
my best by these kids

363
00:19:01,125 --> 00:19:02,959
Just answer the question

364
00:19:04,959 --> 00:19:08,751
Excuse me
Can I say something?

365
00:19:08,876 --> 00:19:11,250
I am sorry. We are not opening up
the floor to parents on this

366
00:19:11,375 --> 00:19:12,709
Let him speak

367
00:19:14,792 --> 00:19:16,375
Go ahead, Mister Bowen

368
00:19:17,709 --> 00:19:19,667
I am a little late to this party

369
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,083
but I got to say the real crime here
would be booting a teacher

370
00:19:23,209 --> 00:19:25,125
who is making a positive impact

371
00:19:25,375 --> 00:19:27,959
I have never seen my kid
this invested in anything

372
00:19:28,042 --> 00:19:29,751
and I do not think that is something
we should punish

373
00:19:29,876 --> 00:19:32,709
Your... Honor

374
00:19:33,501 --> 00:19:35,667
Mister Bowen, I appreciate
your statement

375
00:19:35,792 --> 00:19:39,334
but I think we can all agree that
theater is not unique in this regard

376
00:19:39,918 --> 00:19:42,584
It does not have some
special fairy dust

377
00:19:42,709 --> 00:19:45,751
that cannot be filled by
another extracurricular

378
00:19:48,125 --> 00:19:51,250
What is that? Who is humming?

379
00:20:06,751 --> 00:20:10,459
"Do not say another word"

380
00:20:10,792 --> 00:20:14,042
"Some of us need to be heard"

381
00:20:14,626 --> 00:20:16,709
"You want her big confession?"

382
00:20:16,834 --> 00:20:20,250
"She never saw
Dear Evan Hansen"

383
00:20:20,375 --> 00:20:22,375
"Whatever you think about her"

384
00:20:22,501 --> 00:20:26,083
"The show cannot go on
without her"

385
00:20:28,417 --> 00:20:31,250
"Maybe her class
could be a little more classy"

386
00:20:31,375 --> 00:20:33,834
"Maybe her head is
not in the game"

387
00:20:35,334 --> 00:20:38,334
"Maybe her past
is just a little bit sketchy"

388
00:20:38,459 --> 00:20:41,417
"We need her all the same"

389
00:20:41,751 --> 00:20:45,083
"She is the one who cheers us on"

390
00:20:45,209 --> 00:20:48,083
"So what if she is dropping
the ball?"

391
00:20:48,209 --> 00:20:51,584
"She stands for truth
justice, and songs in our key"

392
00:20:51,709 --> 00:20:55,042
"She stands for us and we believe"

393
00:20:55,918 --> 00:20:58,709
"Before she got
here we were so off track"

394
00:20:58,834 --> 00:21:01,584
"Then Miss
Jenn gave us a chance"

395
00:21:02,667 --> 00:21:05,417
"We used to fall
asleep in chemistry class"

396
00:21:05,542 --> 00:21:09,000
"Now it makes us want to dance"

397
00:21:09,250 --> 00:21:12,417
"She is the show that must go on"

398
00:21:12,542 --> 00:21:15,375
"So we are putting in a good
word, because we heard"

399
00:21:15,501 --> 00:21:18,792
"She stands for truth
justice, and songs in our key"

400
00:21:18,918 --> 00:21:22,167
"She stands for us and we believe"

401
00:21:22,918 --> 00:21:26,083
"What is my motivation?"

402
00:21:26,501 --> 00:21:29,542
"She provides the inspiration"

403
00:21:29,667 --> 00:21:32,918
"Whatever about her reputation"

404
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,667
"Seems about time
for a modulation"

405
00:21:49,542 --> 00:21:53,083
"She stands for truth, justice
and songs in our key"

406
00:21:53,459 --> 00:21:56,542
"Jazz squares in the
choreography"

407
00:21:56,792 --> 00:21:59,792
"Sharpay and Ryan
you know they would agree"

408
00:21:59,918 --> 00:22:03,083
"She stands for us and we believe"

409
00:22:03,209 --> 00:22:09,250
"She stands for us and we believe"

410
00:22:24,042 --> 00:22:26,918
Settle, people! Settle down
Settle down

411
00:22:28,584 --> 00:22:30,250
Do we have any further questions?

412
00:22:30,626 --> 00:22:31,959
Just one

413
00:22:35,250 --> 00:22:38,292
So, how do I snag two
tickets for opening night?

414
00:22:43,167 --> 00:22:44,667
"We did it!"

415
00:22:46,167 --> 00:22:48,209
- How did you do this?
- We stayed up all night

416
00:22:52,209 --> 00:22:53,542
Thank you

417
00:22:55,999 --> 00:22:59,876
"I cannot believe it! You know
I am surprised. Really!"

418
00:23:01,709 --> 00:23:04,876
Oh my gosh, we did
that. You were amazing

419
00:23:04,999 --> 00:23:06,292
You killed it

420
00:23:06,417 --> 00:23:07,751
- Come on!
- All right

421
00:23:10,626 --> 00:23:12,709
This meeting is adjourned

422
00:23:12,834 --> 00:23:14,125
All right, see you later

423
00:23:14,250 --> 00:23:15,918
Well, I guess the show is back on

424
00:23:24,667 --> 00:23:26,250
That was some speech

425
00:23:26,667 --> 00:23:30,417
Honestly, it is the least I could
do. Thank you for everything

426
00:23:30,584 --> 00:23:31,918
You, too

427
00:23:32,292 --> 00:23:35,042
I just wish I would have known
earlier. At the bowling alley

428
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,000
I am a little bit glad we did not
