Step Up 2 The Streets Page #2

Synopsis: Following the death of her parents, teen-aged Andie West is living with her mother's best friend, Sarah. Andie, who doesn't care about school, is trying to figure out where she fits in in life. The only thing she loves is dancing with her street crew, the 410, led by Tuck. The 410 are the most notorious of the street crews in Baltimore and are wanted by the police for their acts of vandalism and public mischief. Sarah threatens to send Andie to live with relatives in Texas unless she cleans up her act, which includes ending her association with the 410 and trying harder at school. Andie's neighborhood friend, Tyler Gage, convinces Andie to audition for entry into the Maryland School of the Arts (MSA), an institution which ended up turning his life around for the better. Andie passes the audition but isn't sure she fits in there. The school's director, Blake Collins, isn't sure she fits in there either. Blake is a brilliant dancer but looks for conformity to his way.

I don't even need to explain this.

I'm out.

Whoa, whoa, come on. Chill out.

Maybe you'll realize there are

some less dramatic options.

Really, like what?

- MSA.

- OK.

- Maryland School of the Arts.

- Yeah, I know what it is.

Are you crazy? Do I look like

some princess prima ballerina?

Andie, what other options

do you have? Hmm?

Let me break it down for you.

Sarah will give you one more shot.

But MSA's no joke.

You gotta go to class, you can't

skip school, you got to study.

No chance, no way.

OK, fine, I'll battle you for it.

Right now.

You win, I never saw you here tonight.

I win, you get your ass back home

and you're at MSA

first thing in the morning.

If you're scared, say you're scared.

I wouldn't want to battle me

if I was a girl.

No smile?

What, you scared? You down?

Hold it, hold it.

Hold up, hold it.

We got royalty in the house.

Tyler Gage is in the building.

Oh, man.

You know we gotta

do something special, right?

Clear the dance floor. Back up!

Brand new music.

Oh, man,

are those trampolines?

Use 'em or lose 'em.

Here we go. Cool, y'all.

Dre, you want to get this?

I'll break my neck.

No, I got it.

Is she talking crazy?

You still dance like a little girl?

Let her know

what's good, Tyler.

Come on, I want to show you.

Oh, wow! He's killing you!

Whoo!

She punched it on you.

Whatcha gonna do?

Did she stick you?

She stuck it on you.

What you gonna do? He's not...

Oh, no!

He's coming out of his clothes!

It's over. It's over.

Come on, y'all. It's all good, Andie.

Next time, baby.

It's all right. You're good, ma.

Oh. Hey.

Don't sweat it. Everybody's

hatin' on you 'cause you're dope.

Are you running off again?

- No.

- No?

- I'm just trying to look out for you.

- Yeah, whatever.

Yeah, whatever.

Don't give me "whatever."

Let's get you out of here.

I've got to get you home,

plus we've got to sell Sarah

on the idea.

- I thought she agreed.

- Just let me do the talking.

No. I'm sending her

to Texas, that's final.

She's already on probation at school.

This is the one shot she needs

to take all that anger she's got

and be able to put it into a structure.

She's not going to school now.

What makes you think

she's gonna go to this school?

- Piece of cake.

- No way.

- That's the thanks for saving your ass?

- She's down?

Believe it or not, she thinks

I set a good example for you.

- What?

- I don't know.

My work here is done.

I'm going home.

Now, all you have to do is get in.

I thought you said

you took care of everything.

I didn't say I'd get you in.

I said I'd get you an audition.

So, go show 'em what you got,

all right?

Go hard, make me proud. Promise?
