The United Nations, headquartered
With nearly 200 member nations...
... the U.N. 's committed to keeping peace
by international cooperation.
Thereby, making the world a safer,
healthier place.
Each year over 60,000 high school students
from around the world...
... participate in Model U.N.
Each school representing a country...
... sends a team of delegates to a
conference where they debate...
... pass resolutions, and have fun.
This year's international conference
is being held in London.
London, England. City of theater.
City of nightlife. City of history.
How did we five kids from Lakeview,
California, wind up in England...
... overlooking Parliament in
the most beautiful spot in London?
It all started three weeks ago
at our State Model U.N. Competition.
The whole team was backstage
waiting for the final round to begin.
Dylan, as always, had his video camera.
Okay, testing. Testing.
Okay, rolling. Rolling.
The human drama of competition.
The intense focus of mental strength.
We're live backstage
with Fairview High's model U.N. Team...
... as Captain Chloe Lawrence brushes up
on some last-minute facts and figures.
Dylan, I'm trying to concentrate.
Over here we have Brian Conners.
Star running back, Lakeview High.
Only joined the team to pad
his college resume.
Rachel Bird, your typical high school teen.
Driven, sensitive. Out to change the world.
Good luck with that.
And the last member of our team, Randall.
Dude's not too familiar with the bathing,
showering scene.
Let's go, guys. Bring it in.
Let's go. Bring it in, guys.
This is it. Okay. This is why we're here.
This is why we work hard.
Time to play. Time to step up to the plate.
Next up, Lakeview High.
Okay, all right. This is it.
Who wants the ball?
- I want the ball.
- I want the ball.
- ''Game on'' on three. One, two, three.
- Game On!
In conclusion,
who says you can't control the Internet?
Our government can.
Just as we can control
what's in our newspapers or on television.
Why do it?
Because it's important to protect
our people from dangerous ideas.
Ultimately, freedom of speech
does more harm than good.
Thank you.
Thank you, People's Republic of China.
Go, China!
On behalf of
the Regional Model United Nations.
It's been a great competition
and a great season.
Give yourselves a big round of applause.
And finally, the winner of the golden cup...
... for outstanding delegate performance
goes to...
... Ms. Chloe Lawrence.
Congratulations, Chloe.
Mr. Holmes?
My name is Julie Watson,
head of the international Model U.N.
Could I have a word with you?
There I was, ball on the 30-yard line...
...right to me. Beautiful pass.
- See you later.
- Take it easy, good seeing you again.
- Hey, Brian.
- Hey, kiddo, how you doing?
Fine.
Lydia, this is Riley. Riley, this is Lydia.
Riley's my mother's best friend's daughter.
That's me. Mom's best friend's daughter.
This year's international competition
is being held in London in two weeks.
Each year, the international U.N. Gives
a scholarship to a team showing promise.
Or in this case, a student,
that shows promise.
Granted, usually the student has
a bit more support, but...
...well, we've picked her anyway.
''Her'' who?
Chloe Lawrence
and the Lakeview High Team.
- Youre picking us to participate in London?
- Es.
- In England?
- Es.
- London?
- Are you kidding?
- I can't go.
- What?
My sister's getting married.
I can't miss her wedding.
What about me?
I'll do it.
Dude! Give it up for the Rilester.
We're going to London!
Riley! Riles, I know what you're up to.
What? I love Model U.N.
You get to talk about world issues...
...and vote on stuff.
Admit it. You want to get closer to Brian,
and this is your ticket in.
Like a ''thanks for volunteering,'' maybe?
This competition is very important to me.
It's not some play-to-play thing
it's a play-to-win thing.
Chill, I'm down with
the whole peace-keeping thing.
- Fine.
- Fine.
And if you go all the way to London
and you don't ask Brian out...
...Ill kill you.
So, that's how we found ourselves
in the home of William Shakespeare...
... Winston Churchill, and Austin Powers.
My sister Chloe had just won California.
Now she wanted to win the world.
Me, I had a slightly different agenda.
You guys, this place is beautiful.
Check it out.
Aliens from planet prep school.
I thought they only cloned sheep
in England.
Let's check in.
Will you take it for me? Thanks, man.
How are you doing?
Lakeview High Cardinals checking in.
What's up?
Where are you ladies from?
Tokyo.
Tokyo. Maybe you and I can get
some sushi later.
All right. Konichiwa to you too, baby.
- I think she digs me.
- Go for it, big guy.
Eah?
I've got a foot on it.
Thank you.
You might want to check your shoes
next time before you leave the loo.
Loo who?
The W. C? The loo? The toilet?
Right.
But this, it wasn't mine.
- It was this other guy's.
- Right.
Right, I think I'll just make a quick exit.
- What's your name?
- What?
- Our name?
- Chloe.
Chloe, I'm James.
Bye.
See you.
Please tell me he didn't just see that.
Define ''see.''
It's charming.
It's quaint.
Guys, reality check. It's a closet.
Good morning, everyone.
Hi.
Let me guess. It's Portugal, right?
