The Gabby Douglas Story Page #6

---

But it was a dream

that wouldn't go away.

It just got stronger.

I knew it was time to make

everyone else believe in me, too.

All right, come on, everyone.

Let's clean up. Let's go.

Coach! I can do the Amanar vault.

I'm ready.

You're still not getting

enough height on your takeoff.

One wrong landing,

you blow your ACLs,

and that's it.

Your career's over.

Well, I can get more height.

Just show me.

Stop rushing everything, Gabby.

I don't think you're ready yet.

Well, if you don't believe in me,

how am I supposed to get anywhere?

Like the Olympics?

Ashley, grab those mats.

Gabby, be patient.

There's time.

Stop worrying about the Amanar.

You have a competition coming up.

Focus on that. All right?

You got it.

You got it, Gabby.

One of the rising stars of the sport.

Every competition, she seems to

come out a little more polished.

Absolutely. You know,

you can really sense the confidence here.

I think this is gonna

be one to watch.

Really good form here.

And she really

keeps those lines.

This dismount's got

a high level of difficulty.

Yes! What a strong finish.

Really sticks the landing.

Look at her.

Look at her. She knows it.

She is beaming.

Well, that was a surprise, huh?

I didn't think you were gonna

pull that off. All right.

What's that supposed to mean,

he didn't think I'd pull it off?

I'll get it.

He's my coach.

Isn't he supposed to believe in me?

But he's always like, "No,

you're not ready for this.

"You're not

ready for that."

- Well, I believe in you, Breezy.

- Hello?

You're not my coach.

I bet Coach Chow

doesn't say that.

Oh, boy.

Now we're gonna be talking about Coach

Chow for the rest of the night, huh?

Well, I bet he doesn't.

Mom, it's the pharmacy.

All right. Coming.

"Coach Chow.

Coach Chow."

Arie. Come on.

Leave her alone.

The pharmacy?

It's nothing. I just have to

have my prescription changed.

Is it hot in here to you?

Um...

Could you hold my place, please?

I'm gonna go sit

down for a second.

Uh-huh. Sure.

Right. Next, please.

How do you have a bad

reaction to medicine?

Isn't it supposed to help you?

I don't know, Gabrielle.

Well, what does it mean?

I'm not a doctor.

It means she has to stop

working so she can rest.

Mama tell you that?

Stop working for how long?

They're here.

John. Arielle.

Come help me get your

mother in the house.

I got it, baby.

I got it.

Take your time.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm all right, sweetheart.

Listen.

Your mom had a bad reaction

to her medication,

but she's gonna be okay.

I don't want y'all to worry.

But it could be a while before

she gets back on her feet.

She's not allowed to work.

So money is gonna get real
