So when her idol, a famous ballerina, encourages her to audition for a professional ballet, Isabelle isn't sure she can land the role. And when a competitive classmate starts pointing out Isabelle's every mistake, her confidence sinks even further.

of the core moves of ballet.

Every dancer

has to master it.

Am I doing it right?

Yeah.

Cool.

(LAUGHS)

Here.

Here you go.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Bye.

Bye.

Ms. Sanchez!

Hello! It's nice to meet you.

It's nice to meet you, too.

I mean, more than

nice, amazing.

And what's your name?

Oh, right. Isabelle.

Isabelle Palmer.

You can call me lzzie,

or lz or Isabelle.

Isabelle Palmer, it's very

nice to meet you, too.

Good job today.

I loved that big smile you wore

the moment the music started.

You danced with joy.

Thanks.

I hope to see you at The

Nutcracker auditions next week.

You will.

It's amazing to meet you.

(CHUCKLES)

You said that already.

(GIGGLES)

See you next week.

Bye.

(CLAPS)

That was perfect,

just like always.

I wouldn't say always.

We all make mistakes.

I do. You don't.

In school, in dance,

in anything.

That's not true.

Today we had a pop quiz in algebra, and I

totally flubbed a really easy question.

(SCOFFS) One question?

So you got, what,

98% instead of 100?

Oh, please, I'd love

to have your problems.

(sums)

Enough about who

makes more mistakes.

Did you really get to meet Jackie Sanchez?

And was she nice?

I totally did

and she totally was!

You are so lucky! I hope she's

that nice to me in the auditions.

She will be. Especially when she

sees what a great dancer you are.

Well, my dancing won't be too

great if I don't keep practicing.

But you've been

practicing for hours.

I know. And I'm going

to keep practicing.

It's just like

with your sewing.

You're great at it because

you work so hard on it.

No one's just gonna give me

a spot in The Nutcracker.

If I want it, I have to be

perfect at the audition.

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)

Next group, please. Come on.

(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)

JACKIE:
Lovely.

Thank you, everybody.

Number 29, just a minute.

What's your name, love?

Jade Palmer.

Jade Palmer. Good job today.

Did he really just single out

Jade in the middle of auditions?

That, like, never happens.

You did great.

Thanks. And good luck.

Thanks.

MR. KOSLOFF:
All right, moving on.

Front and center, please.

Let's take it from the top.

Ah!

MR. KOSLOFF:
Ready?

Five, six, seven, eight.

(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)

Hmm.

So?

All right, thank you,

everybody.

You'll hear tomorrow.

WOMAN:
Let's move out, ladies.

(SCOFFS)

Oh! Whoa! Whoa, whoa!

Calm down, everyone. You'll

all get a chance to see.

Aren't you gonna

go check the list?

What's the point?

I stunk in my audition.

Yes! I got three parts!

One of the child party guests, a

snowflake and one of the mice!

EMMA:
You rock, Renata.

I have to call my mom and dad.

They told me to call them

the minute I found out.
