Leap! Page #7

---

I knew my dream could come true!

I know it's hard to understand.

You hate dancing.

But I just want you to know

I'm truly sorry.

(GASPS)

- Any mail?

- (SIGHS)

There is no mail.

As soon as there is, fetch it.

Can you dance?

Yes. At least, I think I can.

Training starts at 5am tomorrow.

Are you a teacher?

Do you have another option?

5am?

- (BELL RINGS)

- (GASPS)

Time to train!

Jump and ring the bell!

- Why?

- Just do it.

You don't want me to dance?

No talking.

Jump and ring the bell!

- (GRUNTS)

- Again.

You said we were going to train.

- This is it! Again!

- Hmm!

Ha!

Felicie, you lack

precision and finesse.

You have little

or no sense of rhythm.

You're without balance,

grace and charm.

Come on! You can't tell all that

from one jump, can you?

You can.

On the good side, you have

the energy of a bullet,

but you also have the lightness

of a depressed elephant.

Hey! Merante used

exactly the same phrase!

After 10 years of cleaning,

you pick stuff up.

OK, now jump up, ring this bell,

land and do not

splash the water.

But that's impossible.

I thought it was

your dream to dance.

(EXHALES SHARPLY) OK!

(SIGHS)

(GRUNTS AND GROANS)

Come on!

(GRUNTS AND PANTS)

(GRUNTS)

SONG:
You're so unfair

to yourself

Got that feeling

in your chest...

(YELPS)

(GROANS)

- Can't look in the mirror...

- Get lost.

- Can't see who you are...

- Get lost!

Shoo! Shoo!

You wanna be somebody else

Every time you falter

Every time you fall

I can still see

the road ahead...

(GRUNTS)

You'll be brighter

than the stars

And you'll see

how radiant you are

I know you're full of doubt

But don't let them

bring you down

'Cause you're unstoppable

Rising higher than the sun

Climb all the way

to the top

Way up above the clouds

They'll never bring you down

'cause you're unstoppable...

- You!

- (SIGHS)

That was not merely bad,

it was a catastrophe

wrapped in a disaster

with a side order of bad.

- Ta-ta!

- (SIGHS)

(CHUCKLES)

Hold on, don't let go...

You, me, up.

Even in the dark, you glow

You'll be brighter

than the stars

And you'll see

how radiant you are...

- It's incredible!

- (RUDI LAUGHS)

They'll never

bring you down...

(SCREAMS)

'Cause you're unstoppable...

Last time we met,

I was so very rude.

(SPEAKS RUSSIAN)

Let me introduce myself.

I am Rudolph Dimitriev

Stanislaw Artiem Rankovsky...

(SPEAKS RUSSIAN)..the Third.

Big choice of names there.

Don't worry.

Everyone finds it hard at first.

But you and I are unique,

and we do not

follow silly rules, yes?

(LAUGHS) How is that pick-up line

working out for you?

It is no line.

I say it only to you, Camille.

Just to you.
