up chicks at Hebrew school,

and breaking made me cool.

I mean, I might be Jewish,

but my religion is hip-hop.

You've seen

Planet B-Boy, yeah?

Afraid not.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Why is Dante having

you coach his crew?

That's a good question.

Planet B-Boy,

it's like our bible.

It's this dope documentary

about what b-boying is now.

Can I see that?

What, this?

Yeah.

What is this thing?

It's the new Sony tablet.

It's the future.

(SIGHS)

Planet B-Boy, it's got a

billion rentals on Netflix.

Hold on.

Check it out.

Come on, wake up!

Wake up!

No time to sleep!

Work to do!

What time is it?

9:
00.

You been holed up

in here all night?

Hundred hours of footage,

right?

Guess you did

your homework, huh?

Enough, anyway.

When did all

this sh*t happen?

Feeling old yet?

Little bit.

The moves these guys are

pulling off are phenomenal.

The Koreans are on fire.

And we need some of

that fire for our crew.

So what's up, man?

We got a deal or what?

Two conditions.

Name them.

First, I want Franklyn here

as my assistant coach.

For real?

This guy?

Yeah.

All right, done.

Second one?

This right here.

Made a little addendum

to your contract.

If this is about money,

I'll take care of it.

It's just one line, D.

Just read it.

"If I do this... "

I can't make this out, man.

It's chicken scratch.

What does that say?

"If I do this,

"I got to do it

on my own terms. "

Little place for your

initials right there.

Okay-

You are a tough negotiator,

my man.

All right, let's go see

the crew in about an hour.

Hey, Jan,

how you doing?

I'm doing busy.

Can I see D?

It won't even take a minute.

And I would do that

for you because?

'Cause we're co-workers

and I'd really appreciate it.

Try again.

'Cause I'm just a boy

standing in front of a girl

asking her to

further his career.

I love that movie.

What's your name again?

Seriously?

Franklyn. With a

Franklyn with a "Y"

is here to see you.

Go back to

the first one.

I'm sorry. I didn't

mean to bother you.

No bother. Have a seat.

Okay, let's go with that one,

but kill the roses.

The band's manager

really wanted the roses.

Right,

killing the roses.

What's up?

I just wanted to tell you

I didn't know anything about him

asking me to take the coaching job.

You saying you don't

want to do this now?

No, I want to do it,

but I didn't want you to think that

I put WB up to it or something.

Listen, nobody puts WB

up to anything, not even me.

Yeah, I just wanted to make

sure you and I were cool.

Cool?

I mean, you hooked me up

with this job, D,

and I don't want

to seem ungrateful.

Look here, man,

let me level with you.

I don't even know
