00:02:30Move it, buddy! Let's go!
00:02:32Hey, why don't you save it for the stage, paparazzi?
00:02:35This guy over here.
00:02:38Sorry about that.
00:02:40This clown thinks he's gonna be big on Broadway.
00:02:42Ha! That's one crazy dream.
00:02:46Ahem.
00:02:48Ah!
00:02:49♪
00:02:55New York, I love you already!
00:02:59Woohoo!
00:03:00Yeah!
00:03:02Here we go again.
00:03:05Hey, guys!
00:03:07Hi, honey.
00:03:08Barbie, you're there!
00:03:09What?
00:03:10How did you know that I landed already?
00:03:12We got in early.
00:03:13You know Dad installed a tracker on your cell, right?
00:03:16Dad?
00:03:17Not that I was worried.
00:03:19Your father was worried.
00:03:21Well, I made it.
00:03:23Are you gonna be a big star?
00:03:25Ha ha ha!
00:03:27♪
00:03:32Well, let me get through the summer program first,
00:03:35then we'll see about being a star.
00:03:38Is it like being on another planet?
00:03:42Apparently, people here really like pretzels.
00:03:47And I have never seen this many taxicabs in one place.
00:03:54It's even more amazing than I imagined!
00:03:57And, yes, it's a little bit like being on another planet.
00:04:01Well, if you get homesick, we are only a video call away.
00:04:05I know. Thanks, Mom.
00:04:07Oh, I better go.
00:04:08We can't wait to come visit.
00:04:09Don't forget us when you're famous!
00:04:11Take lots of pictures!
00:04:12Bring me back a souvenir!
00:04:13Bye!
00:04:14Hey, Barbie!
00:04:15You guys must be psychic!
00:04:17I'm just about to take my first bite out of the Big Apple.
00:04:21Do you miss us yet?
00:04:22Malibu's just not the same without you.
00:04:24What have you seen so far?
00:04:25Have you been on Broadway?
00:04:27You guys!
00:04:29Not yet.
00:04:30Here it is!
00:04:32The Handler Arts Academy!
00:04:35Wow! Check it out!
00:04:37It's so beautiful!
00:04:40Wow!
00:04:45Here we are.
00:04:50I'm so lucky to spend the summer here.
00:04:53Luck's got nothing to do with it.
00:04:55You worked your tail off for this.
00:04:57I know, but I just hope I'm good enough.
00:05:01There's bound to be some pretty stiff competition here.
00:05:04Come on!
00:05:05Oh, please!
00:05:06You got this.
00:05:09Where'd she go?
00:05:10Where'd you go?
00:05:11Hello?
00:05:12Oh, I'm here.
00:05:13But maybe I should talk to you later.
00:05:15Okay.
00:05:16Bye!
00:05:17We love you!
00:05:18Have fun!
00:05:20Break a leg, kid.
00:05:22Thank you.
00:05:25I just might.
00:05:33Careful!
00:05:34Oops, sorry.
00:05:37Whoa!
00:05:41Watch out below!
00:05:43Whoa!
00:05:44Runaway suitcase!
00:05:50And once again, ballet saves the day.
00:05:53Oh, my gosh!
00:05:54Thank you!
00:05:56I should thank you.
00:05:57I can never get enough practice in.
00:05:59Wow!
00:06:01I wish I had two extra hands so I could applaud.
00:06:04Thanks.
00:06:07Oh, no!
00:06:17I hope you're better on the guitar than you are with doors.
00:06:20My taxi cab driver told me to break a leg.
00:06:23Apparently, I took him literally.
00:06:27As long as you don't break mine, we're good.
00:06:30Also, maybe don't break yours either.
00:06:33I'll try my best.
00:06:35By the way, I'm...
00:06:36Early!
00:06:39A whole day, to be exact.
00:06:41Wait, what?
00:06:42You've got to be kidding me.
00:06:44Every year, one of you overly eager Broadway babies shows up a day early.
00:06:52Do we have to leave and come back tomorrow?
00:07:00Nah, you can head up to the dorms.
00:07:02Tenth floor.
00:07:03Room assignments are alphabetical.
00:07:07I'm too old for these out-of-towners.
00:07:09Hey, I'm from Brooklyn.
00:07:13You're from Brooklyn?
00:07:14As in New York?
00:07:15Is there any other?
00:07:16Wow!
00:07:17I've never met anybody from Brooklyn.
00:07:20Really?
00:07:21Where are you from?
00:07:23I'm from Malibu, California.
00:07:25You're a long way from home.
00:07:27I am.
00:07:28But, as they say, if I can make it here...
00:07:31You can make it anywhere.
00:07:33I know, right?
00:07:34Come on, let's go find our rooms.
00:07:41Maybe getting here a day early was a blessing in disguise.
00:07:44How so?
00:07:45Well, now I'll have a chance to explore New York before classes start.
00:07:48I'd be happy to show you around.
00:07:50Awesome.
00:07:51I should get unpacked.
00:07:52Yeah, me too.
00:07:53It's great to meet you.
00:07:57Um, I think this is my room.
00:07:59Um, it has my name on it.
00:08:01I'm Barbie.
00:08:02But I'm Barbie.
00:08:05What's your last name?
00:08:06Roberts.
00:08:08We have the same name?
00:08:10We're both named Barbie Roberts.
00:08:12I've never even met anyone else named Barbie before.
00:08:16Me neither.
00:08:17Let alone Barbie Roberts.
00:08:19I know, right?
00:08:20Must be cosmic chaos.
00:08:22Won't it be weird calling each other Barbie?
00:08:26In Brooklyn, I'm the only Barbie I know of.
00:08:28Me too.
00:08:29In Malibu, I mean.
00:08:31Why don't you just call me Brooklyn?
00:08:33That'll make things easier.
00:08:34And you can call me Malibu.
00:08:36Perfect.
00:08:37I love it.
00:08:38Me too.
00:08:39Done.
00:08:45Home sweet home.
00:08:47At least for the summer.
00:08:48Not bad.
00:08:50Balcony!
00:08:53Wahoo!
00:08:54This is awesome.
00:08:56Nice, huh?
00:08:57I wish I had this view in Brooklyn.
00:08:59Wow.
00:09:05I've never done a program like this before.
00:09:07Have you?
00:09:08I've spent every summer of my childhood in some classical training program or another.
00:09:12Wow!
00:09:13That's dedication.
00:09:14Yeah, it was really intense.
00:09:16Where'd you train?
00:09:17I trained at the internet.
00:09:19Wow, homeschooled.
00:09:21That's cool.
00:09:23Yeah, I just love playing the guitar and singing.
00:09:26Me too.
00:09:27And dancing and keyboard.
00:09:29I'd love to hear you play.
00:09:31Me too.
00:09:32And why not?
00:09:33We're a whole day early.
00:09:35We've got plenty of time to hang out.
00:09:37Right?
00:09:57Shh.
00:10:22Oh!
00:10:26Here's to you.
00:10:27No, here's to us.
00:10:56How did we ever survive before us?
00:10:59Before us.
00:11:00All I need in my life is more us.
00:11:03Is more us.
00:11:04It's like we're meant to be like destiny, so right.
00:11:07Yeah, how did we ever survive before us?
00:11:13Oh!
00:11:16I just go with the flow.
00:11:18I plan out every day.
00:11:20I master plan and lead us straight to Broadway.
00:11:23East coast.
00:11:24West coast.
00:11:25Who'd wanna choose?
00:11:27Put them all together, put respect on this crew.
00:11:30Through thick and thin, we've got the brightest future.
00:11:35Where've you been?
00:11:36Cause I wish I met you sooner.
00:11:39How did we ever survive before us?
00:11:42Before us.
00:11:43All I need in my life is more us.
00:11:46Is more us.
00:11:47It's like we're meant to be like destiny, so right.
00:11:50Yeah, how did we ever survive before us?
00:11:54Before us.
00:11:56Oh, yeah.
00:11:58Hey, hey.
00:11:59Oh, oh, oh.
00:12:00Hey, yeah.
00:12:01Oh, oh.
00:12:03It's like we're meant to be like destiny, so right.
00:12:06Yeah, how did we ever survive before us?
00:12:12Malibu, come on.
00:12:14Hurry.
00:12:17Um.
00:12:20Girl, what is it with you and doors?
00:12:25Was that a totally clueless tourist move?
00:12:29No, not at all.
00:12:31Honestly?
00:12:32No, not at all.
00:12:37Look, Emmy.
00:12:38The Emmy.
00:12:40She's my favorite.
00:12:42She is?
00:12:43Do you know she has like 50 million followers?
00:12:46No.
00:12:47She sold like a gajillion albums.
00:12:50Yes.
00:12:51She's just huge.
00:12:52I mean, I have a vlog, but she's on a whole other level.
00:12:57Don't you follow her?
00:12:59Not exactly.
00:13:02OK.
00:13:03She used to be my friend.
00:13:06What?
00:13:08You knew Emmy?
00:13:09Like personally?
00:13:15Shh.
00:13:16Yes, we used to perform together when we were kids.
00:13:20We were really close, but I haven't seen her in forever, except on billboards.
00:13:27That's tough.
00:13:29We should make a pact.
00:13:30When we get famous, we won't let it come between us.
00:13:34How about we swap famous for working on Broadway?
00:13:38Deal.
00:13:41But you never know.
00:13:43Broadway could make us famous.
00:13:45What a crazy place.
00:13:48Looks like somebody's ready for bed.
00:13:50Huh?
00:13:52No way.
00:13:53I'm too excited.
00:13:54Well, this is the city that never sleeps.
00:13:57You fit in already.
00:14:03Spoke too soon.
00:14:17Yes!
00:14:38Ah, yes!
00:14:39I'm here!
00:14:40Finally!
00:14:41Look, there's two down front.
00:15:08Welcome, everyone.
00:15:16As most of you know, I am Dean Morrison.
00:15:19Woohoo!
00:15:20Dean Morrison!
00:15:21Dean Morrison!
00:15:22Dean Morrison!
00:15:23Dean Morrison!
00:15:24Dean Morrison!
00:15:25Thank you.
00:15:26Thank you.
00:15:27It's great to be back for another summer of performing arts excellence.
00:15:31You've all worked very hard to get here, but that's nothing compared to the work ahead
00:15:37of you.
00:15:38Your instructors and I will be watching your progress all summer and ultimately deciding
00:15:43who will be featured in our prestigious spotlight solo.
00:15:48And I'm pleased to announce that this summer spotlight solo will be live streamed from
00:15:54Times Square.
00:15:55Did you hear that?
00:15:56Times Square?
00:15:57Times Square?
00:15:58Times Square?
00:15:59Can you imagine?
00:16:00Yeah, I can imagine it.
00:16:07There will only be one name on the spotlight solo marquee, and if you want that name to
00:16:12be yours, I suggest you listen, learn, and practice, practice, practice.
00:16:19Now let's get to work.
00:16:44Is that a dog?
00:16:45Do you think he's lost?
00:16:47Do you think he's lost?
00:16:50Only one way to find out.
00:16:58Costumes!
00:16:59My favorite!
00:17:01After you.
00:17:09Wow, talk about dramatic.
00:17:12I know, right?
00:17:13Drama is my middle name.
00:17:17I'm Rafa, the myth, the legend, costume course, and you two?
00:17:29We're in the performance course.
00:17:31I'm Brooklyn.
00:17:32She's Malibu.
00:17:33And we're both Barbie.
00:17:36Fabulous!
00:17:37Two Barbies, one Malibu and one Brooklyn.
00:17:41What are the odds?
00:17:43Astronomical.
00:17:45Cosmic chaos.
00:17:46I predict future Broadway stars.
00:17:52Oh, there you are.
00:17:54That's Gato, my muse.
00:17:57Gato, as in Spanish for cat?
00:18:00You call your dog cat?
00:18:02And he's cool with that.
00:18:03The only labels we believe in are designer.
00:18:07He's adorable.
00:18:09Speaking of designer labels.
00:18:11What are those?
00:18:13Broken Dreams.
00:18:14My loss, your gain.
00:18:17Broken Dreams?
00:18:18They're so pretty.
00:18:19Did you make them?
00:18:21More like I tried to make them.
00:18:23I was going for avant-garde, but I ended up with avant-garbage.
00:18:27Are you crazy?
00:18:28They're amazing.
00:18:30Amazing is for amateurs.
00:18:33I want my designs to take your breath away and get chosen for the spotlight solo.
00:18:38But look.
00:18:44Um, nothing's happening.
00:18:46Exactly.
00:18:47They're supposed to light up and sparkle.
00:18:50But do you see any sparkle?
00:18:52Um...
00:18:54Exactly.
00:18:56That's why I'm trashing them.
00:18:58But they're gorgeous.
00:19:00They may look good, but they don't do what they're supposed to.
00:19:03They're useless to me.
00:19:04You two should take them.
00:19:06Seriously?
00:19:07Really?
00:19:08They're all yours.
00:19:11We'll just innovate a little.
00:19:24Now that's a look.
00:19:26On you two, they totally work.
00:19:30Speaking of work, come on.
00:19:32We gotta get to class.
00:19:33She's right.
00:19:34We should go.
00:19:35So nice to meet you, Rafa.
00:19:36And thank you for these.
00:19:38Adios, Gato.
00:19:40It was an honor and a pleasure.
00:19:55Yeah, I know, Gato.
00:19:57Not even worth chewing on.
00:20:09No.
00:20:11It can't be 6 a.m. already.
00:20:14Sorry, Malibu.
00:20:15You're still on West Coast time.
00:20:17Better rise and shine, or you'll be late again.
00:20:20Just five more minutes?
00:20:22Not if you plan on making it to class.
00:20:24See you there.
00:20:25Okay, okay.
00:20:26It's 3 a.m. in California, you know.
00:20:30It's 3 a.m. in California, you know.
00:20:51Look and learn, feel the burn
00:20:53And just try harder
00:20:55This is tough, tighten up
00:20:57And fail smarter
00:20:58My spirit is deflating
00:20:59I'm straining, my fear's inflating
00:21:01This school's calling my bluff
00:21:03Hope I have the right stuff
00:21:05And remember how to be brave
00:21:09Tell my nerves to behave
00:21:13Can I get out of my head
00:21:15Get out of my head
00:21:16And hit restart
00:21:18Grind, grind on my mind
00:21:20Work it, work it double time
00:21:22Grind, grind on my mind
00:21:24Never fall a step behind
00:21:26Grind, grind on my mind
00:21:28Work it, work it double time
00:21:30Grind, grind on my mind
00:21:32Work it, work it
00:21:33This is what you wanted
00:21:35All you've ever wanted
00:21:36Don't be daunted
00:21:37Just be patient and relax
00:21:39Go on, cut yourself some slack
00:21:41Easier said than done
00:21:42Why am I the only one
00:21:44Who keeps scrambling and faceplanting
00:21:46This is draining, stop complaining
00:21:48I know it's worth the trouble
00:21:52To push myself and hustle
00:21:55Can I get out of my head
00:21:57Get out of my head
00:21:58And hit restart
00:22:00Grind, grind on my mind
00:22:02Work it, work it double time
00:22:04Grind, grind on my mind
00:22:06Never fall a step behind
00:22:08Grind, grind on my mind
00:22:10Work it, work it double time
00:22:12Grind, grind on my mind
00:22:14Work it, work it
00:22:15Did everyone see?
00:22:16Of course they saw
00:22:17Pull yourself together
00:22:19Practice till it's perfect
00:22:20Gotta work it, work it
00:22:21Find your purpose
00:22:22Plant your feet
00:22:23Use your core
00:22:24Keep the beat
00:22:25Get off the floor
00:22:26How can you even show your face?
00:22:28Chill out
00:22:29But stand up straight and
00:22:30Grind, grind on my mind
00:22:32Work it, work it double time
00:22:34Grind, grind on my mind
00:22:36Never fall a step behind
00:22:38Work it, work it
00:22:39I'm not gonna whine
00:22:40Work it, work it
00:22:41Things will be fine
00:22:42Work it, work it
00:22:43I'm losing my mind
00:22:44Grind
00:22:54Oh man, is it 6 a.m. already?
00:23:01Sorry, no, it's my phone
00:23:03A friend back home
00:23:08Hello?
00:23:09Have you made it big on Broadway yet?
00:23:11Ken, do you know what time it is here?
00:23:14Whoops, I guess I forgot about the time difference
00:23:20Sorry
00:23:25It's okay, hold on
00:23:28Okay, better now
00:23:30So? How is it? Tell me everything
00:23:33Well, so far, it's somewhere between
00:23:36Completely amazing and total disaster
00:23:39Why? It can't be that bad
00:23:42No, no, it's a dream come true, really
00:23:46I think it's my destiny
00:23:48So I just hope I can keep the faith
00:23:51Wow, the competition is fierce
00:23:55But there's only one Barbie
00:23:57Funny you should say that
00:23:58I made a new friend, and guess what her name is?
00:24:01Faith? Hope? Destiny?
00:24:05No, no, no
00:24:06Are you sitting down?
00:24:07Barbie Roberts
00:24:09Barbie Roberts
00:24:11Wow, the odds must be like one in a billion
00:24:15Like everyone here, she's amazing
00:24:18Well, you're more talented than anyone I know
00:24:21We'll see about that
00:24:27Coming through, coming through
00:24:32I don't think I've ever been this tired
00:24:34Pace yourself, it's only the first week
00:24:39Over there
00:24:42Are these seats taken?
00:24:44All yours
00:24:46Thank you
00:24:52Hi, I'm Barbie, I mean Malibu
00:24:56This is Brooklyn
00:24:58Lee
00:24:59I hope I didn't embarrass myself too much in class
00:25:03Thanks for fencing with a beginner
00:25:05You were fine, really
00:25:07You look so familiar
00:25:10Just got one of those faces, I guess
00:25:13No, there's definitely something
00:25:16Hola, what's good, chicas?
00:25:19Rafa! This is Lee
00:25:21Hey
00:25:22Rafa's in costumes
00:25:24Are you in the performance course too?
00:25:26Yeah, acting
00:25:28I thought so
00:25:30You have that serious actor vibe
00:25:32I do?
00:25:38Thanks, that means a lot
00:25:41You remind me of someone
00:25:43Who is it?
00:25:44Yeah, I hear that a lot
00:25:49Wait, I know you
00:25:53You must be confusing me with someone else
00:25:55I don't think I'm confused, Emily
00:26:02Hi, Barbie
00:26:04I knew I knew you! Emily!
00:26:07Oh my gosh
00:26:08Wait, what's going on here?
00:26:14I'm Emily
00:26:17I'm Emily
00:26:19As in... Emi... Lee?
00:26:22Emi? The Emi?
00:26:24As in... Emi?
00:26:28I love your costume
00:26:30Okay, okay, please, please
00:26:32I can't believe it
00:26:34Emily, after all this time
00:26:37What's with the disguise?
00:26:39I don't want to be recognized
00:26:41If everyone here knows I'm Emi
00:26:43That Emi
00:26:45They'll treat me differently
00:26:46Wow, THE Emi
00:26:48I've been your biggest fan since your first single
00:26:51I even lip-sync to it on my vlog
00:26:53Wait until my friends hear about this
00:26:56Like that
00:26:58Got it
00:26:59Sorry
00:27:01Thanks, I appreciate it
00:27:04I can't believe it's you
00:27:06Well, sort of you
00:27:08What's a megastar like you doing in a place like this?
00:27:12Training, real training
00:27:14I want to be taken seriously
00:27:16Which never happens when I'm Emi
00:27:19You have no idea what it's like
00:27:21No, I don't
00:27:23The whole Insta-lebrity thing is out of control
00:27:28Your secret is safe with us
00:27:30Thanks
00:27:36When my dad became my manager, I just stopped having a life
00:27:39He even took me out of school
00:27:41Your dad? But you lived with your mom
00:27:44I did, but then everything changed when my dad took over
00:27:47He lost touch with everyone?
00:27:50Yep, my dad made sure it was all business, all the time
00:27:54Ouch, that's tough
00:27:56I even had to beg him to cut my tour dates so I could come here this summer
00:28:00I'm glad you did
00:28:02Yeah, me too
00:28:04I've missed you
00:28:06Same
00:28:09But don't worry, I'm not going to ask you for a selfie or autograph
00:28:13For you, I'd make an exception
00:28:22It's so great that you and Emi found each other again
00:28:25All this time, I thought she ditched me
00:28:27But it was her father calling the shots
00:28:30I don't even remember him
00:28:32I don't know if I'd ever want to be that famous
00:28:35How about you?
00:28:37I just love to dance
00:28:39Fame might be a side effect one day, but it's not the goal
00:28:43Like my singing, or even my vlog
00:28:45I just have to express myself
00:28:47Me too
00:28:49And all the world's a stage
00:28:51Then we need costumes
00:28:59Not bad, look at us
00:29:03Look at this place
00:29:05You're so lucky to live in New York
00:29:07I've traveled a lot with my mom, but there's nowhere better
00:29:11Your mom travels a lot?
00:29:13She's an airline pilot
00:29:15Well, I'm so glad I traveled here and met you
00:29:18Same
00:29:19Cosmic chaos
00:29:22Speaking of parents
00:29:24Hi Dad
00:29:25All good
00:29:27Yep, absolutely
00:29:29Mom's in Mexico?
00:29:31I thought she was heading to Australia
00:29:33Oh, next week, got it
00:29:35No, Dad
00:29:37I told you, I'm not going to schlep back and forth every day
00:29:40The dorms are fine
00:29:44Yes, she's very nice
00:29:47You'd like her
00:29:49Okay, I know
00:29:51I know
00:29:53I love you more
00:29:55Bye
00:29:57My dad thinks it's his job to worry
00:30:00It is, my dad's the same
00:30:02Come on, let's take a selfie for both of our dads
00:30:06That will keep them happy
00:30:10Oh, smart thinking
00:30:23Wow
00:30:25What the...
00:30:26Did you see that?
00:30:27There, twirling makes them sparkle
00:30:31Rafa might be onto something
00:30:41Please, everyone
00:30:43Quiet, please
00:30:45Thank you
00:30:46We have a surprise visitor this afternoon
00:30:49A member of our board of directors is touring the campus and sitting in on classes
00:30:54I'm sure it goes without saying that I expect you all to present yourselves and this program in the best possible light
00:31:01No pressure
00:31:05Ah, here he is now
00:31:10Welcome, Mr. Miller
00:31:13Unbelievable
00:31:15Everyone, this is Mr. Miller
00:31:18Mr. Miller, these are some of the finest young performers you'll ever meet
00:31:24That's us
00:31:28Hello, I'm pleased to be here
00:31:31Lovely campus
00:31:32Don't let me interrupt
00:31:34Mr. Miller, please don't hesitate to ask any of us if you have any questions as you tour the academy
00:31:41Okay, people?
00:31:43Thank you
00:31:49Thank you
00:32:01What are you doing here?
00:32:03I'm just taking a tour, sweetheart
00:32:05Come on, dad
00:32:06I know you better than that
00:32:08Tell me why you're really here
00:32:10Let's just say I'm protecting my investment
00:32:13I want to make sure no one gets in the way of my talented daughter winning that spotlight solo
00:32:18Look at me, dad
00:32:20I'm trying to avoid the spotlight
00:32:22I enrolled in this school to learn, not win some contest
00:32:27Do you have any idea how much money canceling your tour cost us?
00:32:31The least you can do is make sure you win that spotlight solo so we can turn it into a PR event
00:32:36Well, I'm not helping you
00:32:38That's okay
00:32:39I know how to make sure my little girl shines
00:32:42Take this silly costume off
00:32:44Stop!
00:32:48Do you think no one here knows who you really are?
00:32:51No one except my friends
00:32:53Sweetheart, you don't have friends
00:32:56You only have competitors
00:32:58Not if I don't compete
00:33:00You'd better get back to class
00:33:02Daddy's got business to take care of
00:33:13You guys mind if we move over there?
00:33:16Raph is recording the class and I prefer not to be in the shot
00:33:20No problem
00:33:22That's gotta be nerve-wracking
00:33:24Always worrying about cameras
00:33:26Yeah, it stresses me out
00:33:29Lots of things are stressing me out today
00:33:35It's alright
00:33:36Come on, let's warm up
00:33:39Point those toes! Loosen up!
00:33:44Move it, move it, move it
00:33:49Go, Malibu, go, Malibu
00:33:52Excuse me! Pardon!
00:34:01Excuse me!
00:34:03Excuse me!
00:34:05Excuse me! Pardon!
00:34:12Coming!
00:34:24I heard she broke her ankle.
00:34:26I heard she broke her whole foot.
00:34:28Well, she definitely broke the whole drum.
00:34:32Poor Brooklyn. I hope she's okay.
00:34:35I feel terrible.
00:34:37It's not your fault.
00:34:39But what if she can't dance?
00:34:41What about her shot at the spotlight solo?
00:34:43What if...
00:34:44It was an accident.
00:34:45She's going to be fine.
00:34:47I hope.
00:34:55Oh, Brooklyn! You're walking!
00:34:57It's not broken. Only a sprain.
00:34:59Thank goodness. I was so worried.
00:35:02So was I. But everything's okay.
00:35:04It should be fine in a day or two.
00:35:06What can I do to help?
00:35:12Stop helping?
00:35:21Seriously, what is it with you and doors?
00:35:30Fresh air and sunshine can cure almost anything.
00:35:38Gato! Hey, little fella!
00:35:42Hey! What's the verdict?
00:35:44I'll be fine. Just a little stumble on the path to greatness.
00:35:48I hear you.
00:35:49I thought my instructors would be wowed by my costumes.
00:35:53Not calling them admirable attempts.
00:35:55Oh, come on. You're just having technical difficulties.
00:35:58And they work. Sometimes.
00:36:01I know, but I can't control them.
00:36:03Even if I could, it's too late anyway.
00:36:06I had to submit my project.
00:36:08Epic fail.
00:36:11Well, you know what they say.
00:36:13If at first you don't succeed,
00:36:15your friends are here to help you try again.
00:36:17Is that what they say?
00:36:19Rafa, you gotta admit she's on to something.
00:36:22Look at me. I haven't given up.
00:36:24Positive attitude changes everything.
00:36:29I flew in on cloud nine with Malibu sunshine
00:36:33To the playground of my dreams
00:36:35Made a new best friend, there wasn't a question
00:36:38That everything would work out perfectly
00:36:41Then boom boom, spoke too soon, worst in the room
00:36:44Like a total crash landing
00:36:46But I'm not gonna let that keep me down
00:36:50It's all about those good vibes
00:36:53Every future looks bright
00:36:55When you got those good, good, good vibes
00:36:58Gotta catch those good, good, good vibes
00:37:01Now take a look at me, so on point and savvy
00:37:04The whole world at my feet
00:37:06Spiral of reverie, didn't know what fear meant
00:37:09I dance and leap to my own beat
00:37:12Then boom boom, spoke too soon, guess I'm not immune
00:37:15To the flaws of gravity
00:37:17But crutches won't be keeping me earthbound
00:37:21It's all about those good vibes
00:37:24Every future looks bright
00:37:26When you got those good, good, good vibes
00:37:29Gotta catch those good, good, good vibes
00:37:32Is the glass half full or half empty?
00:37:35It depends on when you ask me
00:37:37I think it runneth over
00:37:40The positivity takeover
00:37:43With unenlightened dresses, I'm no Thomas Edison
00:37:45But a good attitude's good medicine
00:37:47Though I'm reticent to put on a happy face
00:37:50¿Cómo se dice? Let me put it this way
00:37:52Sé que esto chica es mi visión loca
00:37:55My imagination soars
00:37:57Find a dizzy heart styling with dazzling lights
00:38:00For when you did this, tread the boards
00:38:03Then boom boom, spoke too soon, now I'm cocooned
00:38:06In my own disappointment
00:38:08Gotta spread my wings and get to higher ground
00:38:12It's all about those good vibes
00:38:15Every future looks bright
00:38:17When you got those good, good, good vibes
00:38:20Gotta catch those good, good, good vibes
00:38:23It's all about those good vibes
00:38:25Every future looks bright
00:38:27When you got those good, good, good vibes
00:38:30Gotta catch those good, good, good, good, good, good vibes
00:38:51bass & drums play in syncopated rhythm

00:39:10orchestra plays in bright rhythm
00:39:20orchestra plays in bright rhythm
00:39:29Miss Roberts?
00:39:31Yes?
00:39:33A word in my office, please.
00:39:42Miss Roberts, you're a very promising performer.
00:39:45Thank you.
00:39:47Talent isn't the only thing we value here.
00:39:50Professional conduct is just as important.
00:39:53Of course.
00:39:54I know I had a bumpy start in some of my classes, but...
00:39:57Miss Roberts, I'm referring to your attempt
00:40:00to sabotage one of your competitors
00:40:02for the spotlight solo.
00:40:04Sabotage?
00:40:05I've been informed that the accident
00:40:07involving the other Barbie Roberts was no accident.
00:40:10Of course it was.
00:40:12She's my friend.
00:40:14Why in the world would I sabotage her?
00:40:16Pushing a competitor into the orchestra pit
00:40:18is a serious charge.
00:40:20Pushing? No, no.
00:40:22That's not how it happened.
00:40:24A concerned witness came to me directly, very upset.
00:40:27He saw everything.
00:40:29But, Dean Morrison,
00:40:31I would never do anything like that.
00:40:34My hands are tied.
00:40:36I've been told to take appropriate action
00:40:38or funding for the program will be cut completely.
00:40:41What is appropriate action?
00:40:46I must expel you from the program effective immediately.
00:40:52You mean I'm being sent home?
00:40:55To Malibu?
00:40:57I'm afraid so.
00:40:59I'm sorry, Miss Roberts.
00:41:01But it was an accident.
00:41:04But it was an accident.
00:41:07Apparently not.
00:41:09Unfortunately, some people think
00:41:12competition is only about winning.
00:41:14That's not Malibu.
00:41:16I mean Barbie.
00:41:18You don't know her like I do.
00:41:20Maybe I don't.
00:41:22But perhaps you don't know her as well as you think you do.
00:41:25What am I supposed to do now?
00:41:29The other Miss Roberts is leaving.
00:41:32But you're still here.
00:41:34Make the most of it.
00:41:44I will.
00:42:02Hey.
00:42:04Hey.
00:42:06I, um...
00:42:08I...
00:42:10Do you need something?
00:42:12Well, I...
00:42:14I met with Dean Morrison.
00:42:17Yeah?
00:42:19Me too.
00:42:21Can you believe they're sending me home?
00:42:25Are you okay?
00:42:27Barbie, you can drop the Concerned Friend Act.
00:42:30What?
00:42:32Brooklyn, don't tell me you believe any of this.
00:42:35Don't call me Brooklyn.
00:42:37It's Barbie.
00:42:39Brooklyn was for when we were friends.
00:42:41But we are friends.
00:42:43We're competitors.
00:42:44We both want the spotlight solo.
00:42:46I get it.
00:42:47You're out for you.
00:42:48It's that simple.
00:42:49No, it's not that simple.
00:42:51It was an accident.
00:42:53I wasn't competing against you.
00:42:55No?
00:42:56It sure seemed like it.
00:42:58We were pushing each other to be our best.
00:43:01Yeah?
00:43:02About pushing.
00:43:03There was a witness, Barbie.
00:43:05A witness.
00:43:06Someone saw you push me on purpose.
00:43:08That's not how it happened.
00:43:10You know, for a while,
00:43:12I really thought you were special.
00:43:14That this was special.
00:43:18I guess I was wrong.
00:43:20That's not fair.
00:43:22That's ironic.
00:43:24You telling me what's fair.
00:43:40♪♪♪
00:43:49Back here again
00:43:51Losing a friend
00:43:53Thought I was strong
00:43:55But I'm reeling
00:43:56This time felt different
00:43:58Our connection was instant
00:44:00But that was pure magical thinking
00:44:04Just move on from the pain
00:44:07Soon it'll fade like a memory
00:44:11You start over again
00:44:13Evolving from this fateful origin story
00:44:19♪♪♪
00:44:26A chariot streaks across the sky
00:44:29So majestically
00:44:32Two girls on an odyssey
00:44:35In a city that never sleeps
00:44:38Riding high on a merry-go-round
00:44:41A modern mythology
00:44:43Glory within reach
00:44:47In the playground of our dreams
00:44:53Oh-oh-oh
00:44:56A destiny with reality
00:44:59In a race against the wind
00:45:03Discovering a new part of me
00:45:06In a faded friend
00:45:09I know finding you
00:45:11Would be an epic journey with no end
00:45:14Or so then it seemed
00:45:18In the playground of our dreams
00:45:24Oh-oh-oh
00:45:27But you can't see shooting stars
00:45:30In the city of marquee lights
00:45:33Faith brought us together
00:45:36And then tore us apart, tore us apart
00:45:39Wish I could go back and restart
00:45:42A race across the sky
00:45:45To a world where dreams and friendships
00:45:48Aren't destined to collide
00:45:51♪♪♪
00:45:55The chariot has landed
00:45:57On this lonely island
00:46:00Where great beginnings
00:46:03Don't get happy endings
00:46:06Glorious mythologies
00:46:09Can slip out of your reach
00:46:11In reality, best friends leave
00:46:14The ride was just to make me leave
00:46:18In the playground of our dreams
00:46:24Oh-oh-oh
00:46:33♪♪♪
00:46:48Hey, I heard about Malibu.
00:46:51Yeah?
00:46:52I know how much it must hurt.
00:46:54Hurt?
00:46:55This ankle hurts, but it'll get better.
00:46:58Barbie and me?
00:47:00I think we're done.
00:47:02You two were so close.
00:47:04Kinda reminded me of us, you know?
00:47:07Yeah.
00:47:08I thought we were done, too,
00:47:10after you skyrocketed to fame.
00:47:12You were always a better dancer than me.
00:47:15It could've been the other way around, you know.
00:47:17Maybe.
00:47:18I'm just glad to know that you didn't forget about me.
00:47:21That was never true.
00:47:23Things aren't always what they seem to be, Barbie.
00:47:27Okay.
00:47:29I've gotta practice.
00:47:31Hey, thanks, Sam.
00:47:44If you ask me, it doesn't add up.
00:47:46It doesn't add up at all.
00:47:48Those two wanted the other to win
00:47:50almost more than they wanted it for themselves.
00:47:52Gato and I can always sniff out the good ones.
00:47:55And Malibu is a good one.
00:47:59Competition can do weird things to people.
00:48:03But not to Malibu.
00:48:05Did you know that she made me promise
00:48:07not to post the video I recorded of you that day
00:48:10just to protect your privacy?
00:48:13Hold up.
00:48:14Hold up.
00:48:15What did you just say?
00:48:17You heard me.
00:48:18When Brooklyn went into the pit,
00:48:20I had my phone and I was recording.
00:48:23You were recording!
00:48:25I was recording!
00:48:31It was an accident!
00:48:33No doubt about it.
00:48:34Rafa, do you know what this means?
00:48:37Malibu didn't do anything wrong.
00:48:40Wait, go back.
00:48:42Can you zoom in?
00:48:47No way.
00:48:48What?
00:48:49I need you to send me that video, okay?
00:48:52Done.
00:48:53Okay.
00:48:54You find Brooklyn and show her this.
00:48:56I've got someone else to show it to.
00:48:59On it!
00:49:03I'm glad you came to see me.
00:49:05I know this is difficult for you.
00:49:08Thanks, but that's not why I'm here.
00:49:10Oh?
00:49:11You said that someone saw Malibu,
00:49:13I mean, Barbie, push me?
00:49:15Yes, that's correct.
00:49:17I know it was Mr. Miller, the board member.
00:49:21It's not important who the witness was.
00:49:24What's important is that...
00:49:26What if he wasn't telling the truth?
00:49:28Miss Roberts, that's a very serious accusation
00:49:31and impossible to prove.
00:49:33What if I have proof?
00:49:36It was an accident.
00:49:38Oh dear, we've made a terrible mistake.
00:49:41Yes, but we're in time to fix it.
00:50:06What was so urgent that you needed to see me right away?
00:50:10You should know, after what you did.
00:50:13I don't know what you're talking about,
00:50:15and you can't prove it anyway.
00:50:18Prove what?
00:50:23It doesn't matter.
00:50:24The spotlight solo is yours, sweetheart.
00:50:27I don't want it,
00:50:29and even if I did, I wouldn't cheat to get it.
00:50:33Hey, I went to a lot of trouble
00:50:35to make sure you didn't have any competition.
00:50:38That's the worst part.
00:50:40You didn't even believe I could win it on my own.
00:50:43Of course I do.
00:50:44But I have to think of your career.
00:50:46It's just business.
00:50:48It's not just business, Dad.
00:50:50It's my life.
00:50:52Mine.
00:50:54You know I only want what's best for you.
00:50:58Me too, Dad.
00:51:02Dad.
00:51:17Can we come in, Barbie?
00:51:19Of course.
00:51:25Are you okay, Han?
00:51:27I can't believe it ended this way.
00:51:30We're just glad you're back home, sweetheart.
00:51:34Everyone who knows you would realize
00:51:37this is just a big misunderstanding.
00:51:40I thought Brooklyn really knew me.
00:51:43Getting kicked out is unfair,
00:51:45but Brooklyn thinking I pushed her?
00:51:48That's worse.
00:51:50Aw, honey.
00:51:54We're here if you want to talk.
00:52:00Come in.
00:52:30♪ We're the weirdest of all possible worlds ♪
00:52:35♪ For the first time I found my perfect match ♪
00:52:39♪ How did we ever survive before us? ♪
00:52:44Surprise?
00:52:46Brooklyn? Barbie?
00:52:48How? What?
00:52:54Your foot.
00:52:56Ta-da!
00:52:57All better.
00:53:01What are you doing here?
00:53:03I'm here to apologize for not believing you.
00:53:07I never should have doubted you.
00:53:09I can't believe you came all the way to California to apologize.
00:53:13Remember? My mom flies all around the world.
00:53:17It's one of the perks of having a mom who's a pilot.
00:53:24And I didn't just come here to apologize.
00:53:27And I didn't just come here to apologize.
00:53:29I came here to bring you back.
00:53:33Brooklyn, I can't go back.
00:53:36I ruined my chance, and yours.
00:53:39Maybe, but maybe competition isn't always about winning.
00:53:43Yeah, and maybe it can be about bringing out the best in each other.
00:53:47But it's a little late now. I've been expelled.
00:53:50Yeah, about that. You're re-enrolled.
00:53:53What? How?
00:53:55Let's save that story for the flight.
00:54:03And so, thanks to Rafa and Emmy, the whole thing got cleared up.
00:54:07I'm so glad and really happy to be back at Handler.
00:54:12But mostly, I'm so glad you and I are okay.
00:54:16I'm really sorry about all of this.
00:54:20Hey, enough with the apologies. We're more than okay.
00:54:23We're us, and we're going to make it to the finish line together.
00:54:27Together.
00:54:32Attention, students.
00:54:34The selection for the spotlight solo has been posted on the message board.
00:54:38Oh my gosh, what does it say?
00:54:40I can't believe it.
00:54:42Who is it?
00:54:44Out of the way.
00:54:49Huh?
00:54:52Congratulations.
00:54:53You too.
00:54:58Barbie Roberts got the spotlight solo? Which one?
00:55:01Wait and see, my drummer dude.
00:55:03Wait and see.
00:55:05Huh?
00:55:19Coming through.
00:55:30Oh, I've missed you.
00:55:33Don't you just love a good reunion?
