Stick It Page #3

Synopsis: Haley Graham is a former gymnast-turned-juvenile delinquent who, after one too many run-ins with the law, is forced to enroll at an elite gymnastics academy, the VGA in Houston, Texas which is run by the legendary Olympic gymnast Burt Vickerman. But the rebellious Haley is not welcomed into the academy by the other teenage gymnasts who despise her for walking out on her Junior Olympic team years earlier during a competition which cost them the gold medal. But Haley is not a docile person either and makes every effort to provoke conflicts with the other girls. Vickerman takes it upon himself to coach Haley in his own way to make her regain her self respect for the VGA's coming spot on the Gymnastic Nationals.

to get us from

point A to point B.

And induces the urge to vacuum.

- Mina, right?

- Yeah, Mina.

Mina, put down the phone.

Can you tell Joanne

that I'm gonna take over

and do a real dismount?

Joanne, Haley's on the phone.

She's gonna do a real dismount.

I heard her, thank you.

How 'bout a double back?

You will not throw a double back

without training it first.

- Close your eyes.

- Over my dead body.

- Little CPR might do you good.

- Haley!

Ahh...

Shall we share our philosophy

with Haley, ladies?

Speak my mind.

What are we about?

Clean, safe routines,

guaranteed to stick.

Is he keeping

your brains in jars?

Or should I be concerned

about the water?

Shall we show Haley

what discipline is all about?

Please join us, Haley.

Ehh. No, thanks.

I'm kinda tired.

Oh, all right. Fine.

Ladies, outside, now!

Point your toes, ladies.

You're gonna keep going

until Haley participates.

This is, like,

globally unfair.

- We're gonna be here all night.

- Lift your knees... Joanne.

This is totally

violating the penile code.

Hey!

Hey! You guys.

What, do you want me

to pick the lock, or what?

Can you come let me in?

Oh, right. Thank you.

Get lost!

Haley, let's go for a drive.

- ...deserve to be.

- A what?

Thank you, Lorelei,

that was delicious.

Actually, you know what?

I'm gonna finish this off...

- No, no.

- ...if that's OK.

- Thank you.

- Are you serious?

I heard you were

strict about diet,

but this is just rude.

Hey, you piss where I eat,

you don't eat.

Oh, but you do?

What, does this mean

you're eating my piss?

Well, that's disgusting.

What a charming

young lady you are.

Yeah, that's

what they say.

Listen, I don't suppose,

uh, college gymnastics

is on your to-do list,

right?

Correct. College gymnastics

is one big fat to-don't.

Great. Then in

addition to sparing

innocent collegiate

gymnastics coaches everywhere,

you can keep

any purse money

that you might win,

free and clear.

I'm not competing

or training again. Ever.

Oh, you're gonna piss off

the judge and kiss 18 goodbye?

I guess.

- Hey.

- What the...?

The IG Classic is

comin' up in a month.

Now, you apply yourself,

you could win

some restitution money.

It could get ya outta here.

What do you think?

I think if you showed up

at the Classic with me

an angry mob would

probably cut your brakes.

- I got insurance.

- Really?

Well, no, thank you.

This sport is a total joke.

You know this.

Sorry to dis your

life's work and all. No offense.

Hey, none taken.

There's nothin' fair about

a girl landing a double pike

and losing a tenth 'cause

her toes weren't pointed.

Nothin' fair about judges

who don't have instant replay,
