We have a long night ahead of us.

Uh, a long night ahead of us.

- Is this your first time?

- No.

- Oh, tell the truth.

- No

Wait, let me show you something.

What do you think?

Is it okay?

Just like roses.

No, like everlastings.

You keep calling my name, and it's not even in yet.

It's okay. Just put it into yours.

There.

Positions, move forward.

Cut, cut, cut.

What the hell was that? Do you have two left feet?

Sorry, Pearl. I'm just a stand-in here.

That's what I'm talking about. When we're not

complete, we just keep getting delayed.

Who was supposed to be in your place?

- Arni Enriquez, Ma'am.

- Is he still coming?

- We have no idea, Ma'am.

- You're all shitheads.

Fine, have a break.

Uh, miss, you want me to help you out?

- Have you been for a while now?

- Since 6 o' clock, I think.

We still have a lot of things to do.

- How long is your rehearsal going to take?

- I don't know. We still can't even perfect it.

You're really involved on that one, aren't you?

You're at it again.

Fine, you better go back there.

They might already need you.

Come on, watch our rehearsal

and then we can go out later.

- Let's not.

- What do you mean?

I just don't like frat meetings.

- I feel like there's always going to be some fight.

- You're just prejudiced.

AKO's different.

- Okay, everybody back to work.

- Come on, let's go.

- We don't have much time. Quick!

- Come on.

Why are you missing one? Who's missing?

Lucero!

- What the hell?

- Sorry, dude.

Okay, let's take it from the top.

Your formation a while ago.

If you don't improve, your initiation's going

to even take longer. Len, music.

Oh, what's happening?

How's everything going?

- Is this going to take longer?

- Enteng, do you mind?

Why don't you just sit down and watch? At the rate we're going, we'll never be able to finish.

Len, music.

What's the matter?

- Where's Arni Enriquez?

- Why?

Arni's the one I'm looking for. Where

are you hiding that f***er?

Take it easy, man. Arni's our friend.

We don't want any trouble here.

Dude, I don't have any problems with you.

But Arni does.

When you're against Arni, you're also against us.

Okay, man.

Just tell that motherf***er Arni that if...

he doesn't stop bugging Tina, he's going to pay for it.

That motherf***er.

Happy birthday to you.

You belong to the zoo.

With the monkeys and the donkeys.

And the big kangaroo.

This batch is such a genius. They're pretty okay.

They have production sets.

Who's the art director here?

- Come on, make a speech

- Speech, speech.

- Thank you. Thank you.

- Toast, toast.

- Come on, there's not even any beer on our cups.

Brod, take out the champagne.
