Fame Page #6

I wanna know about

the world you inhabit.

The people around you.

Who are they?

How do they behave?

Language and behavior, that's

all the actor's got to work with.

So keep your eyes open.

Observe. Record.

Mr. Bazinska,

this is disgraceful.

It's unhealthy, it's unsanitary.

No, it's fine. It's clean.

No, it's not unsanitary. It's...

The only thing missing from it

is a finger on the scale. Your

finger on the scale. You're the worst.

How is emotion

expressed through action?

Gesture?

That's disgusting.

What can I say.

Look, it's clean.

So they got all the...

Now what are you doing?

Taking my pictures without

asking! Sorry. Homework.

You're supposed to get me to write

off something before you do that.

I could sue you,

and I could sue you.

Dad, you home?

Understand other people. And

you'll begin to understand yourself.

Bye, Mr. Cranston.

Ms. Dupree.

Yes?

You practice more than any

other student here at P.A.

You are a very talented

classical pianist.

Thank you, Mr. Cranston.

I happen to be looking

for an accompanist

for our spring production

of Chicago.

It might serve you well

to branch out a bit.

Expand your horizons.

Okay, so what

does this entail?

It's just a couple rehearsals.

It might go a little late...

Okay, what's "late"?

Midnight.

Midnight? Only on the

nights it performs.

That's what

Mr. Cranston said.

Daddy, it's a big honor for a freshman to

be asked to play for one of the musicals.

And it's Chicago!

Do you realize...

You are training to be

a classical pianist.

Can you tell me how

playing honky-tonk songs

till all hours of the night

is gonna help with that?

It won't, but it

would be fun. Fun!

Something new! Daddy, I want to do

something different for a change.

"Something different" was

never part of the deal, Denise.

You will be saying "no" or I will be

pulling you out of that school. Period.

I'm sorry.

Ma, I was gonna tell you.

Performing Arts?

Do you have any idea

how risky that is?

As a career?

Of course I do.

Malik, you're trying to do

something everyone wants to do.

Every teenager on this block thinks

they can make it as the next rapper...

Look, Ma. You have to let me stay

there. It's everything I have now.

I just don't know

about this.

Look, they're good grades!

Did you even look at it?

Look, Ma.

I'm talented.

If somebody's gotta make it

out there, why can't it be me?

And who in the world told

you you were so special?

You did.

I just can't deal with this

right now. I'm late for work.

All right. Bobby.

Okay. Kevin!

Look out!

Yeah?

Master Tavares,

you play with Ian,

brio, gusto, panache

and a host of foreign adjectives

that indicate excessive style.
