[group applauding]

[Cassie] Someone once said,

"Life isn't about the number of breaths you took.

"It's about the moments that took your breath away."

It's a beautiful thought,

but what about the moments in between,

the moments we don't expect

and the little things that don't seem important at first?

I'm sorry, what?

[light orchestral music]

Oh, nevermind.

So, Jeffrey, where do you want to go tomorrow?

I don't know, Cass.

I have a lot of files to get through

and I'll probably be working all weekend.

But it's your birthday.

I will try and get this done,

but, yeah, that sounds good.

[Cassie] Yeah, I think that's the best course of action.

[Tessa] Hey, you.

Hey.

Can I call you back?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

So, guess what Roger did.

I know, but listen.

This is actually really good.

He has an in with the director of the Miami City Ballet

and he got us both an audition.

That's amazing.

They're gonna love you.

What did mom say?

Oh, well, um...

You haven't told her, have you?

Not yet.

Are you serious?

We have to call her right now.

Wait, hold on.

It's so competitive.

And you know how she gets.

I don't want her to freak out if I don't make it.

Hey, Tessa.

Hey, Jeffrey.

So, what are you gonna do for his birthday?

We're gonna go to Rossi's.

Oh, that'll be nice.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, well, you have work to do and I have errands to run,

so I'll leave you to it.

[light orchestral music]

But I'll cook us dinner later

and we can both call mom together.

- [phone ringing] - That sounds amazing.

Okay, still no answer.

I'll just call again in a little while.

Just leave a message.

Her voicemail's full.

Well, mom is a senior citizen, you know?

She probably watched Wheel of Fortune

and dozed off during Jeopardy!.

[laughing]

Okay, I should crash.

I have to be at the airport at 6:30.

Yeah, I still haven't made Jeffrey's birthday card.

[light orchestral music]

What?

I just always thought

that you would be the one to make it.

I was always jealous of how good you are, you know?

Yeah, but then reality set in

and I had to be responsible.

Responsible, okay, but it was like when daddy died,

so did your dreams.

You just gave up.

Uh, you're gonna be brilliant.

Miami City Ballet's new prima ballerina.

I love you, Cass.

I love you too.

[grand orchestral music]

[light orchestral music]

Thank you.

We need a few minutes.

Happy birthday.

I know it's silly.

Since I was little I made birthday cards for people.

Cassie...

Don't say anything.

Just open it.

I don't understand.

You're the dancer.

Well, I thought you, well, we could take classes together.

Classes.

You could teach them and I would end up

looking like an idiot.

Oh, come on.

It would be fun.

It would be like a couple's thing.

Yeah.

[dramatic orchestral music]

You know they don't condone workplace relationships.

We both could lose our jobs and you just got promoted.

Not if we're smart and discreet about it.

What are you trying to say?

Maybe we should stop seeing each other

before this gets more serious.

Maybe?

We can still be friends, you know?

Friends, wow.

I don't wanna lost my job.

You are really something.

[phone buzzing]

I'm gonna go.

Hello?

[Tessa] Hey, I just got a call from the hospital

and mom had a heart attack.

What?

Oh my gosh, is she...

[Tessa] She is stable.

Okay, so I hope to get there.

Okay, good.

[Tessa] Okay, and don't worry.

She seems fine at this point.

Okay, what time is your flight?

[Tessa] It's gonna be at 8:30 tonight.

I'll be there as soon as I can.

[airplane passing]

[light rock music]

[dramatic orchestral music]

What's the latest?

The doctor said that the first few days

are the most critical.

They need to monitor her.

Well, look what the cat dragged in.

Oh, mom.

Now that both my beautiful girls are here,

I'm gonna be just fine.

And in order to be just fine, she needs plenty of rest.

We'll be quick.

You got it.

You get some sleep.

We love you.

I love you too.

[upbeat orchestral music]

Stop.

[doorbell ringing]

[sighing]

Hey, are either one of you Ms. Daniels?

[Both] Yes.

Okay, so I have...

[Marsha] Sam, is that you?

[Sam] Hey, Marsha, I...

What are you doing here?

[Sam] I'm just giving...

Where are my manners?

Hey, ya'll.

I'm Marsha.

I moved in just down the street last year

and I look in on your momma every now and again.

You're Cassie and you're Tessa.

Am I right?

[laughing]

Of course I am.

I could recognize you to in a church hall

on free catfish night.

[laughing]

So, I have...

Oh, don't be silly.

I've got plenty.

Come on.

So, I'm here to give...

Don't be silly.

Join us.

Oh my, I hope you aren't vegetarians, are you?

Or one of them veganites.

Well, I actually do try...

Absolutely not.

I'm a vegetarian.

Since when?

Well, whatever floats that little boat of yours.

[laughing]

I guess you'll miss out on this tasty meat sauce then.

So, how's your momma doing?

She's resting comfortably.

Oh, that's fantastic news.

I tried to visit her, but she was in the ICU

and they said only immediate family was allowed

and as much as I feel like I family,

I certainly wasn't gonna try to pull a fast one.

Although, if I kept flirting with that male nurse,

I might've gotten in to see her.

[laughing]

Look at me, inviting myself in and rambling on.

I'm sure ya'll have plenty to do without silly old me

making a fuss.

Okay, so I'm actually here to serve a notice

on foreclosure proceedings on the dance studio.

[dramatic orchestral music]

It's my first, so I'm like a little nervous,

but sorry, but Marsha, thank you for this carrot.

It's wonderful.

Goodbye.

I'm gonna go out this way.

All right.

[door closing]

Ain't that a buzzkill?

Okay, well, it certainly was nice meeting you two.

[laughing]

Please give my best to your mother.

I know she'll be back on her feet in no time.

Sorry about the bad news.

Toodles.

Wow.

[upbeat pop music]

One, two, three, four,

left side, turn.

[Cassie] Tess, I'm not gonna let you

miss this opportunity.

Mom would be so disappointed.

There will be other auditions.

Can I help you?

Roxy.

Ah.

Hi, Roxy.

Hi.

Been doing my best to hold down the fort

in your momma's absence.

I trust she's doing well.

Oh, yeah.

She's still her stubborn self.

[laughing]

Oh, this is one of our new little ballerinas,

Emily and her mother Linda Rogers.

Hi.

Hi.

This is Miss Cassie and Miss Tessa.

Miss Kate's daughters.

Miss Kate is the best dance teacher ever.

I sure hope she gets better real soon.

Aw, thank you, Emily.

It's so nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.

You know, when Dean and I heard about what happened,

we were just sick.

If there's anything we can do, please let us know.

Oh, thank you.

That's very kind.

[light orchestral music]

Excuse me, duty calls.

Sure.

Rogers, of course.

Um, Dean is a very lucky man.

We went to school together.

Oh, no.

I'm Dean's sister.

I was two years ahead of you in school.

Oh, yeah.

I remember.

You were a...

Chubby, pimple-faced, bookworm?

Well, you look great.

Thank you.

Emily is Dean's niece.

So, how is Dean?

Dean is a hard dog to keep under the porch,

to say the least.

Emily, let's get going.

But I like it here.

We have somewhere to be.

It's so nice to see you all.

[All] Bye.

Goodbye.

Roxy, we know the studio is having problems.

You could say that.

Look, your momma is an amazing woman

and I know she's doing the best she can,

but she was never interested in making any changes

to keep the studio afloat.

[dramatic orchestral music]

I'll show you the books whenever you're ready.

Okay, thank you.

Thanks.

[sighing]

I could use some air.

Me too.

Hola, Cassandra and Theresa.

[upbeat Latin music]

[Both] Hola, Victor.

You get more beautiful each time I see you.

[laughing]

And you, my dear, we could dance the night away.

Oh, please give your mom my very best.

But now, I must prepare

to teach tonight's advanced ballroom.

Hasta luego, mi amigas.

[Both] Adios, Victor.

What would this place be like without him?

I know.

[laughing]

[light orchestral music]

Hey.

[Tessa] Hey.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

I can't believe she didn't tell us.

I mean, from what it looks like, the mortgage

hasn't been paid in over six months.

Wow.

[dramatic orchestral music]

Okay, what are we gonna do?

Nothing we can do at this hour.

[glasses clinking]

You sure had it bad for Dean Rogers.

Remember?

[wind rushing]

Hey.

Hey, Cassie, what's up?

Well, I haven't seen you at the studio

the past couple of weeks and we don't have any classes...

I'm not going back.

I'm quitting dance.

But you're so good.

You love it.

My mom made me go.

She's not making me anymore.

Well, happy birthday, Dean.

Hey, Amber.

You're a day late, a dollar short,

and way out of your league, little miss.

Let's go.

[crying]

[Cassie] I can't believe I never told you that before.

I knew.

I saw the whole thing.

I went back to get the card out of the trash can,

but it was gone.

You're amazing, you know that?

Thank you.

[laughing]

Good morning.

[Tessa] Hi, mom.

Hey, mom.

How are you feeling?

Ah, fair to middlin'.

Ladies, please keep it short and sweet.

Of course.

Thank you.

So, the doctor says my blood pressure's

still a little bit too high,

but my heart seems to be doing pretty good.

That's good news, yeah?

I'm still kickin', ain't I?

[laughing]

Yes, you are.

And Tessa has some good news.

It's not a big deal.

If you don't tell her, I will.

Tessa, don't make me get out of this bed

and give you a piece of my mind.

Okay.

I got an audition for the Miami City Ballet.

That's fantastic.

You're gonna be amazing.

I'm so proud.

No, I'm actually, I'm not gonna go.

I'm gonna stay with you.

What?

The doctors here are gonna fix me up like new.

I'm gonna be back to that studio in no time.

No, mom, please.

It's really not a big deal.

It's settled then.

You are going to the audition.

You two need to skedaddle outta here.

Go.

There's no use arguing, Tess.

Love you.

Love you, mom.

Think of what it will mean for the studio

when you get accepted to the Miami City Ballet.

People will be lining the streets to study

where Tessa Daniels used to dance.

[laughing]

Well, when you put it that way...

[upbeat hip hop music]

♪ We have a code red ♪

♪ Listen all the fellas ♪

♪ Trip hop battles like we reppin' ♪

♪ Used to be was steppin', now I'm sweatin' ♪

Yeah, I didn't like hip hop at first either,

but it kinda grows on you.

I'll take Merle Haggard any day.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

Up, hit, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four, whoo!

Good job, everyone.

[clapping]

Much much better, Billy.

We're teaching hip hop?

Yes.

Interesting.

Just trying to bring this place into new millennia,

that's all.

I don't know how my mom would feel about that,

but if it's bringing customers in,

I guess it could only help.

[laughing]

[upbeat orchestral music]

Cassie?

Oh, hi, Dean.

Hey.

I didn't expect to see you here.

It's so great to see you.

Uh, yeah.

Have you met my niece, Emily?

Yes, hi, Emily.

It's nice to see you again.

Hi, Miss Cassie.

Are you and Uncle Dean friends?

[Dean] Yes, we...

- We used to be. - Are.

Okay, I have to get ready for class.

Bye.

[Cassie And Dean] Bye.

Hey, how's your mom doing?

Resting comfortably.

That's good to hear.

[light orchestral music]

And Tessa, how's Tessa?

Just missed her.

Oh.

She's auditioning for the Miami City Ballet.

That's great.

Yeah.

So, um, how long are you gonna be in town for?

Just long enough for mom to get back on her feet

and figure out what's going on with the studio.

Everything okay?

Nothing I can't handle.

Well, look, tiny dancer,

it's great to see you again.

It's good to see you too,

but please don't call me that anymore.

Come on.

You used to love it when I called you that.

Yeah, I grew up.

I'll be right with you.

Hey, um,

give me a call.

Let's catch up.

Yeah.

Bye.

So, what are our options?

My dad's estate, his life insurance?

She used that for renovations to the studio

and with the second mortgage, there's nothing left.

[dramatic orchestral music]

The studio's been in trouble for a long time now.

I know how much it means to her and I'm gonna do my best

to keep it quiet, but it's eventually gonna get out.

It's appreciated.

It's a lot to process.

Let's chat again when you have a moment

and I will do my best to help in any way I can.

Thank you.

Thank you for the coffee.

Take care.

Thank you, Mr. William.

[Tessa] Can we take out a loan

or a second mortgage or something?

[Cassie] I don't think so.

I certainly won't qualify.

[Tessa] Me neither.

Hey, why don't you dance?

Don't talk on the phone.

Seriously, you text 24/7.

I'll be done in a minute.

Whatever.

So, what's next?

Well, Mr. William gave us a little more time

to find a solution.

I don't know if that means finding a buyer or what,

but just the idea of closing the studio

after all the work mom and dad put into it

just seems wrong.

Mom will be devastated.

I know it's silly to ask you not to worry about this,

but try not to, okay?

How's audition prep going?

Go figure.

We rush out here and then they push it back a week,

but I think we'll be ready.

Well, you're gonna be great.

Remember, I'm counting on you to make it,

so we can parlay your fame into success for the studio.

[laughing]

So, no pressure then, right?

None at all.

Okay, I'll talk to you later.

[light classical music]

[sighing]

[camera clicking]

Miss Roxy knows how much I absolutely love working here

and I've tried to be optimistic,

but we've had to go without paychecks several times

in this past year.

[dramatic orchestral music]

I got an offer from On Your Toes in Bella Springs

and I assure you I wasn't looking,

but I can't pass up this opportunity.

Well, I mean, as much as we hate to see you go,

I completely understand.

I really do wish you guys the very best.

I hope to see you and your mom very soon.

Yeah.

[Roxy] Take care.

You too.

Ciao.

[upbeat orchestral music]

I'm certainly not teaching that class.

But I'm happy to accompany you.

[light piano music]

Then I guess I am.

[upbeat orchestral music]

Hello.

For those of you who don't know me, my name is Miss Cassie.

You're Miss Kate's daughter.

I remember you.

You and that good-looking young man

were always dancing together.

What was his name?

[Woman] It's Dean.

Um, so, I'll be teaching your class today.

Where's Mr. Victor?

He moved on to greener pastures.

[gasping]

He died?

Oh, no no no.

He got another job.

I'm sorry.

We wish him well and until we can find a replacement,

you're gonna be stuck with me.

We were learning the Cha Cha.

Oh, perfect.

The Cha Cha is lively, flirtatious,

and full of passionate energy.

Okay, then I'm gonna need a partner.

Can I have a volunteer?

I'd be happy to help you.

Thank you, sir, but it really should be

one of the students.

Sir?

Yeah, I just, you know, I meant that,

it didn't seem like you had any...

My bad, carry on.

[Woman] Oscar, Oscar, get up there

and dance with Miss Cassie.

[grumbling]

Awesome.

Okay, so, the Cha Cha requires small steps

and a lot of hip movement.

It's in four-four time and the third and the fourth beat

are split into three.

One, two, cha cha cha.

Okay, so, to start, the male partner's gonna step forward

on his right foot

and his partner's gonna step back with her left

and then we're gonna come back to the center

and then cha cha cha in place.

Ah, my toe.

Come on.

It's okay.

When we have the music, you'll feel it.

It'll be fine.

Sorry, Missy, but in my 80 years,

there's one thing I've learned.

I'm a student, not a teacher.

Ease it on up here.

Little ol' me?

Mm-hmm.

Okay, come on, Emily.

Let's help Miss Cassie out.

Perfect.

Okay.

Five, six, seven, eight.

[light piano music]

[laughing]

[group clapping]

Um, anyway, I'm a little rusty myself,

but you guys get the idea.

If that's rusty, I'm decomposed.

[laughing]

All right, everybody grab your partner

and let's try it.

[light piano music]

Hey, you.

Hey, I just thought I'd swing by

and you know, see if I could ask you to dinner.

[light orchestral music]

Um, you know, I actually don't know if that is an option

because I kind have this other other thing.

Yeah, you can't come up with a good excuse?

Pretty much.

Eight o'clock.

Uh, but it's not a date.

It's just two people, who've known each other

since middle school, having dinner.

Not a date.

So, I'll pick you up.

No, I'll meet you there.

Where are we going?

What sounds good to you?

The Clubhouse, seven p.m., not a date.

[light orchestral music]

So, how is life in the big city?

You seeing anybody?

Wow, you cut to the chase.

Um, but to answer your question, yes.

Okay.

That's cool.

I'm happy for you.

What about you?

Dated around a little bit,

but, no, truth is, I'm just too busy

for anything serious right now.

Decided it's important to be there for Linda and Emily.

At least until Linda gets back on her feet.

She was pretty devastated after her husband left.

Oh, well, they're really lucky to have you.

I think I'm pretty lucky too.

Is that why you never left Georgetown?

I'm sorry.

It's just, it's all you used to talk about.

I did leave.

For a little while I was working down in Savannah.

This young slick developer.

Really?

Well, I thought I was.

Truth is, I was in way over my head.

Too arrogant to realize it.

I ended up filing for bankruptcy when I was 22.

And then after Linda's husband left,

it seemed like a good time for me to come back

and be there for her and get back on my feet.

You seem to be doing very well now.

It took a few years,

but I think I'm finally on the right path.

Besides, Georgetown's where I'm meant to be.

And I get to be my own boss

and take off for the important things,

like ballet and Cha Cha lessons.

To friends.

Friends.

[glasses clinking]

[Waitress] Here you go.

Whenever you're ready.

Thank you.

You wanna go for a walk?

I think we should pay the bill first.

Yeah, probably.

[laughing]

Oh, I haven't dined and dashed since,

since that time at Gator's Strike.

Do you remember that?

Oh my gosh, I can't believe you brought that up.

[laughing]

Oh, we'll split it.

Oh, no no no no.

Fine, but this is not a date.

Not a date, got it.

Of course not.

You have a boyfriend.

This is supposed to be a very good wine.

[light rock music]

Look at how beautiful it can be here at night.

Yeah.

Ah, so, I have to be honest.

I had a boyfriend until a few days ago.

I see.

Yeah, this guy names Jeffrey.

I don't know what I saw in him.

He dumped me on his birthday.

Wow.

Mm-hmm.

I guess that's better than being dumped on your birthday.

This is true.

[laughing]

So, what's your plan?

In life?

Yeah, I guess, but I meant, you know,

not so distant future, here, now.

Oh, right.

Well, mom should be getting released from the hospital soon

and then, well, the studio's not doing so well financially.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, please keep that to yourself.

Yeah, of course.

You know, maybe it's time we started

thinking outside the box on that.

Well, we're gonna have to think of something quick

or Coastal Dance Center will be a thing of the past.

We can't have that.

[light orchestral music]

We?

That place, it means the world to Emily.

And it means a lot to me too.

As they say, we're all in this together, right?

Don't you miss it?

Miss what?

Dance.

That was then.

I have a career now.

Listen, there's something I've been meaning

to apologize to you for.

Ah, there's no need to apologize.

Thank you for a wonderful dinner and non-date.

Goodnight.

[door chimes ringing]

Cassie?

[light orchestral music]

Walter Carlos Gaviote, my favorite student.

Cassie, it's been forever.

How's Miss Kate?

She's doing well, thank you.

That's great.

So, how have you been?

Last time I saw you you had braces.

Good.

I've been applying to a bunch of different colleges

and, but, listen,

Victor told me he was leaving and I wanna help.

I might could cover some of his ballroom classes?

That's so sweet, but business hasn't been so great.

You need a ballroom instructor, right?

Well, yeah.

Look, my parents got me covered.

I'll teach a couple classes and when things get better,

we'll talk, cool?

Thank you.

[light orchestral music]

It's so good to see you.

You hired Walter?

Is that a problem?

He's like 12 years old.

How do you intend to pay him?

We worked it out.

Look, this kid you have so much faith in,

represents what's wrong with the studio.

He may be young, but he's old-school.

All he knows is traditional dance.

We need fresh blood.

I thought that was why you were here.

Listen, Walter can teach old-school ballet

and you can teach contemporary and get your hip hop on.

Roxy, it's the best of both worlds.

Where did all these people come from?

I posted on Instagram and Snapchat

that I was gonna be teaching

and if you excuse me, I have some work to do.

See you next week.

[Girl] Thank you.

This is impressive.

Well, that should help out with some of the bills, yeah?

It's a start.

Do you have a second?

Yeah.

Have you heard of the new Southern Regionals?

It's held each May and there's like 10,000 in prizes.

That would make the bank happy,

but that's like a month away.

So?

Who would represent the studio?

Oh, no.

I haven't danced at that level in years.

Come on, dude.

How many titles do you have?

I don't know.

And who would I partner with?

[laughing]

Besides, none of the other studios are as good as us

and when we win, people will be lining up

to take lessons with us.

Victor will probably be there.

Counting on it.

[light pop music]

[door chimes ringing]

[light classical music]

And step left, step right,

and jump.

Jump, and oh, ow.

Ooh.

[laughing] [light orchestral music]

Oooh.

Are you okay, Uncle Dean?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Just fine, sweetheart.

What is all this?

It's father-daughter or uncle dance appreciation day.

How cute is that?

Nice tutu.

Pink would not have been my first choice.

I think you're more of a winter palette.

I don't know.

Pretty fond of pink, thank you very much.

You sure you're okay?

Yeah, just my ego.

Well, in that case, I have to go rehearse.

Oh, yeah?

It's a secret.

Hmmm.

I don't think she should be keeping secrets from us.

We can keep a secret, can't we?

Yeah.

Yeah, I think so.

Especially a big juicy secret.

[light orchestral music]

Hi.

I brought contraband.

Oh, yay.

I hope you're hungry.

Oh, I am.

What'd you bring me?

It's a surprise.

Here you go.

Mmm mmm.

Looky here, looky here.

[gasping]

Oh.

That looks good.

Come on, let's dig in.

How are we doing today?

[light orchestral music]

Ah, much better now.

[laughing]

Would you like some pulled pork?

[laughing]

I'm a vegan.

Oh, we've got corn.

Come on, dig in.

[laughing]

Tango?

Tango.

Tango?

Is there an echo?

It's all about connecting with the music,

connecting with the audience.

Drama, passion, synchronicity.

I'm impressed.

Our moves are stealth like a cat,

poised and confident.

Let's try it.

[tango music]

Five, six, seven, eight.

And...

Oh, sorry.

[phone ringing]

Hello?

Oh, yeah, I'll be right there.

Thank you.

Um, I gotta go, I'm sorry.

Oh, is everything okay?

Yeah, my mom's being released from the hospital.

[Walter] Nice.

- Okay. - Yeah, I'll see you later.

Bye.

Now, she needs plenty of rest.

The nurse will give you instructions

as well as modifications for her diet, okay?

Okay.

So, the most important thing is she needs to take it easy.

Her body still needs to heal.

That'll be tough.

She doesn't really like others taking care of her.

I'm sure she'll enjoy a little TLC.

We'll see about that.

We'll see about what?

Oh, hey, mom.

Are you ready to go home?

Indeed, I am.

Chop chop.

[Nurse] Yes, ma'am.

Miss Kate, you take care of yourself.

Thank you, doc.

[light orchestral music]

Let's get moving.

Let's get home.

[kissing]

Shouldn't you be home with your momma?

She kicked me out.

[laughing]

Doesn't surprise me.

I'll be sure to go by and see her later, if that's okay.

Thank you.

That would be so sweet.

Oh, can I get you something?

It's on me.

Um, maybe just some soup.

Coming right up.

Thank you.

Hey, it's me.

Call me when you get this.

[door chimes ringing]

[light orchestral music]

Cassie?

Uh, hi, yes.

I'm Amber.

Remember?

[wind rushing]

You're a day late, a dollar short,

and way out of your league, little miss.

Oh, Amber.

Of course.

How are you?

I'm good.

I'm just meeting a friend for dinner.

So, what brings you to town?

Um, I'm just visiting my mom.

That's great.

Yeah, you look really good.

Thank you.

Oh, so do you.

Thank you.

[Marsha] Here you go.

[Cassie] Oh, thank you.

Oh, hey, Amber.

Can I get you something?

Oh, no.

I'm good for now, thanks.

[Marsha] Okay.

So, I heard you and Dean had dinner.

Yes, we did.

Well, that's nice.

It sure is good to catch up.

You know, I'm very proud of him for bouncing back

like he did.

And between you and me, he should've never left town.

But he's back now.

That's all that matters.

[door chimes ringing]

So, are you and he...

Oh, hey, there she is.

I gotta run, but it was so good to see you.

You too.

[wind rushing]

[light piano music]

Hey, you two.

I gotta lock up for the night.

Okay, Miss Kate.

Thank you.

Be right out.

Okay.

[wind rushing]

[Marsha] More coffee?

I'm sorry, what?

More coffee, honey?

Oh, yes.

Thank you.

Very nice moves.

Thanks.

How can I help you?

May I have a moment of your time?

Hadley Prescott.

[dramatic orchestral music]

And you must be Miss Kate's daughter.

I'm Cassie, yes.

I've met with your mother on several occasions

in the past.

I've also been told that she had a recent health scare.

I hope she's en route to a speedy recovery.

Thank you.

Continue.

Now, I'm also aware of the challenges

that the studio has been facing.

I discussed buying the building from your mother.

And I'm sure she wanted to hear nothing about it.

[laughing]

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.

So, what would you be planning to do with the building

if you buy it?

I can't say specifically, but my associates and I,

we have a gameplan for these parts.

And would you consider leasing it back to us?

Out of the question.

But we are willing to pay off your mortgage default

so you all can move on and be debt free.

It's a win-win.

Win-win.

So, you're telling me that this studio,

this piece of the community

that's been in my family since before I was born,

is only worth its outstanding mortgage?

Now, I wouldn't put it exactly that way.

Well, however you wanna spin it, Mr. Prescott.

Please, call me Hadley.

Actually, I don't think I'll be calling you at all.

Please see yourself out.

[upbeat dance music]

[group clapping]

[wind rushing]

[Walter] Whoa, this is so awesome!

Hey, guys, take a picture of me for my Instagram.

[light piano music]

Hips in.

Hold your, hold your arms up

and stay.

Chest open, lifted up.

Good, all right.

Let's try it again.

Hey, Cassie.

- How are you? - Hi, good.

How are you?

Good.

How's your mom?

She's recovering.

You know how stubborn she is.

Yes, I know how your mom is.

But now I have to deal with Roxy.

[laughing]

Yeah, Roxy can be bossy sometimes,

but she's been really great to step in

while my mom's been out,

and you guys have to.

[dramatic orchestral music]

I know it's been tough around here.

You know, you and your mom are so good to me

and the kids, so don't worry about it.

Thank you.

You guys have been amazing.

So, I heard you're going to the dance competition?

Yeah, scary, huh?

So, you need any help?

Yeah, I could use all the help I could get.

Any time.

You guys get back to work.

All right.

- Bye. - Bye.

All right, try it again.

Dad, I really wish you were here to tell me what to do.

I know how much the studio meant to you

and still does to mom.

I'm doing my best,

but I don't think it's gonna be enough.

I know you always told me

that tough times don't last if people do.

This is one tough time.

I miss you so much.

More coffee?

Yes, please, thank you.

[door chimes ringing]

Hey.

Hi.

Here you go.

Oh yeah.

I don't trust that young one with the curly hair.

Hey, what's going on?

So, I had a chance to catch up with Amber the other day.

[dramatic orchestral music]

Okay.

Is there something you wanna tell me?

Listen, if you two are still dating,

that's your thing.

I just know why you didn't tell me.

What else are you not telling me?

Not telling you?

Look, I have been completely honest with you.

You know what?

I don't owe you an explanation about that.

You're the one who left Georgetown and never came back

and pretty soon, you're gonna leave again

and none of this ever mattered.

Cassie, wait.

I didn't...

[sighing]

What was that all about?

I just, I wanna focus on the competition

and getting my mom back on her feet.

[door chimes ringing]

What happened?

Skydiving incident.

[Roxy] Skydiving.

Oh, it was great.

We had a blast

until I tripped and fell in the parking lot

on the way home.

There's no way we'll be ready in time.

Oh no.

I'm really sorry.

It's fine.

What are we gonna do?

We're gonna have to pull out of the competition.

Let me coach you.

You've been doing really good

and I'm sure we could find you another partner.

How are we gonna find a new partner in two weeks?

[Dean] All you had to do was ask.

[light orchestral music]

Absolutely not.

Cassie, I'm sorry.

If you just let me...

Listen.

You broke my trust.

I don't want your apology.

Please, listen to me for one second, okay?

I can't deal with this right now.

Cassie.

I have too many things to worry about.

All I ever wanted to do was help,

just give back to the studio.

Don't.

Sometimes we have to put the past behind us,

let it go.

This is just a job to you.

And when this is gone, you can find another one.

You're wrong.

This is so much more than a job.

Dance is what I love.

I love this place.

Everyone deserves a second chance.

Look, we may not see eye to eye,

but I only know one thing.

You are a talented dancer.

And I also know you're quite fond of someone,

just by how you keep telling yourself otherwise.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You don't?

You stay out of this.

Now, it's your turn to shine, do some good for the studio.

I'm happy to work with you and Walter if you'll have me,

help you get ready for the competition.

Are you sure about that?

On one condition.

Oh, here it comes.

Please kiss and make up with Dean.

I concur.

You two are incorrigible.

It's settled then.

I didn't say that.

Come, Walter, we have to strategize.

[light orchestral music]

[laughing]

Oooh.

[sighing]

[sighing]

Hi.

Hi.

Shall we?

Dance?

[light orchestral music]

Let's go.

What are you two doing here?

Oh, uh, we just wanted to check in

and see how you were doing.

Good morning.

[throat clearing]

Afternoon.

Hey, Miss Kate.

Hello, Dean.

Dean and I are gonna be competing

in the Souther Regionals.

Then what are you doing here?

Ya'll need to rehearse.

Now get.

Mom.

I ain't dead yet.

[coughing]

[light orchestral music]

I'm fine.

Just need to take it easy.

Now, outta here.

I can stay for a little while.

They're covering for me at the restaurant.

Thank you, Marsha.

You all worry too much.

I don't need a babysitter,

just some sleep.

Everyone out.

Go.

I love you.

I love you too.

Take care, Miss Kate.

So long, Dean.

For the record, Amber and I, we did date for a while

after high school.

We even did the long-distance thing when I was in Savannah.

[light orchestral music]

But then my business fell apart, she started ignoring me.

Wouldn't even take my call.

Now that I'm finally back on my feet,

guess I'm worthy.

And?

[car door opening]

[car door closing]

Do you have any idea how much you hurt me?

I mean, I know it was high school but it still hurts.

We were great together

and then you chose the bottled-blonde hotty

to impress your friends.

I really cared about you.

I know you did

and I can't tell you how many times

I wanted to pick up the phone and call you.

Why didn't you?

I was a teenage boy

with a fragile ego.

Why did you really leave Georgetown?

To start my career.

Cassie, you are the best dancer I've ever known

and you went off and you got a corporate nine to five.

I get it, it's safe, but there's no risk there.

There's no reward either.

I got promoted.

We can only lie to ourselves for so long.

Wouldn't you rather try and fail

than never try at all?

[sighing]

[car starting]

Your timing is impeccable.

I put this off for as long as I could,

but the board is breathing down my neck.

The board or a vulture,

wanting to swoop in when we're at our most vulnerable?

You know if the bank moves in,

it'll be far worse for you

than if you accept our generous offer.

Paying off our mortgage and leaving us with nothing

is far from generous.

It'll save you all the humiliation of foreclosure.

And knowing we acquired your property

for even less than we're offering now.

[light orchestral music]

You might wanna work on your bedside manner, my friend.

Duly noted.

Cassie, I would stop this if I could,

but I've put this off for far too long.

My dance partner, Dean, and I are gonna be competing

in the Southern Regionals.

It's $10,000 for the winner.

And all of that would go to the studio

and the business has actually been getting...

Yeah, but that's if you win.

I have the utmost faith in you ability,

but that is hardly something I can take back to the board.

The $10,000 will merely delay the foreclosure.

You'll need to show some substantial business growth

for the bank to reconsider.

Is he giving you a hefty commission?

[laughing]

[William] Come on now.

Well is he?

Cassie.

Looks, it's true.

I want the property, but I haven't exerted any pressure

or offered any incentives to Mr. William.

Why don't I believe either of you?

[phone ringing]

I have to take this call.

Excuse me.

If you're not even willing to consider Mr. Hadley's...

I said I have to take this.

[dramatic orchestral music]

Let's go.

[Dean] More bad news?

When it rains.

[door chimes ringing]

[light orchestral music]

Hi, Tessa.

Hi.

Hey.

Hi.

I made it.

The director of the Miami City Ballet loved me.

[Cassie] I'm so proud of you.

Thank you, but Roger didn't make it

and then he broke up with me.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Milkshake?

Always makes my niece feel better.

My treat.

Got lots to talk about.

Yeah, that sounds great.

Let's go.

[Dean] Come on.

[tango music]

[Walter] Stop.

What's wrong?

[Walter] You're not feeling it.

[Dean] Not feeling what?

The passion, the intensity.

You guys have the choreography.

Just make it come to life.

Let's try it again.

[tango music]

five, six, seven, eight.

Come on, guys.

Feed off each other.

Come on.

Stop stop stop stop stop.

Hey, guys.

I actually do have a couple of really great exercises

that might help, if you wanna give them a try.

But I don't wanna step on any toes.

[light orchestral music]

Why don't we just take a break?

No no no.

Let's do this.

Okay.

Step closer together.

Closer.

Now gaze into each other's eyes.

Whoever laughs first has to buy me another milkshake.

[tango music]

And five, six, seven, eight.

[phone ringing]

Hello?

Where are you?

I'm sorry.

[light piano music]

I'm sorry that I hurt you.

I'm sorry I wasn't smart enough

to realize we had a good thing.

And I'm sorry it took me over 10 years

to finally tell you that.

Shall we?

Dance.

[tango music]

[Walter] Hola.

Uh, hi.

Looking good.

We have some work to do.

This should be interesting.

Hi.

Yes, Charlotte, please.

Sorry to bother you, but our dressing room is locked.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

Just give me a minute, okay?

Can I just borrow your keys?

I'll bring them right back.

Charlotte, I can't.

Here, its...

All right, bring 'em right back, okay?

Okay, go ahead.

[crowd murmuring]

[Emily] Good luck, Uncle Dean.

Good luck, Miss Cassie.

[Cassie] Thank you.

I just know you're going to win.

Well, you know, you're supposed to say break a leg.

Why would I say that?

Do you know what a superstition is?

I think so.

Well, you say break a leg

because it's exactly what you don't want to happen.

I think you're playing a trick on me.

No, that's honey.

That's what you're supposed to say.

Okay, well, break a leg, Uncle Dean.

Break a leg, Miss Cassie.

All right, now, let's let these two finish getting ready.

Bye.

[Both] Bye.

What's wrong?

Um.

Oh.

Yeah, okay, I'll be right back.

Uh, could we use a paper clip?

Oh yeah, that would look great.

[light orchestral music]

You just happened to have these in your purse.

Dancer's always prepared.

I wish my mom could be here.

I know she is in spirit.

Thank you.

Southern Regional Amateur Dance Competition.

[audience applauding]

We'd like to thank our sponsors for their generous support.

[audience applauding]

And, of course, our judges.

[audience applauding]

Tonight's competition will be judged on originality,

precision, choregraphic execution, and

And to all our competitors, break a leg.

[audience applauding]

[tango music]

Not half bad.

Pretty slick if you ask me.

Amber?

Money talks.

Hey, you.

Hey, I didn't know you danced.

While you were crashing and burning in Savannah,

I learned some fancy moves.

Thought it would impress you.

Hey, I hate to ask, but do you have any safety pins?

I might have some in my dressing room?

Do you mind?

I'll catch you out there.

[Amber] Great, thanks.

She any good?

Money talks.

[audience applauding]

I have to say I'm surprised to see you here.

[Amber] Oh, I know.

[ominous orchestral music]

[Cassie] Wait, I can't open the door.

Hey.

It seems to be locked.

I'll go get some help.

Oh, there you are.

Nice job, old man.

Yeah, thanks hotshot.

[laughing]

Oh, congratulations.

[laughing]

Hey, excuse me, guys.

There's someone here to see you.

[Cassie] Mom?

You two were simply gorgeous up there.

You saw the whole thing?

Snuck in at the last minute, got a seat in the back.

Please tell me you did not convince her to sell.

I have to say that was truly beautiful to watch.

I have never...

I'm glad you enjoyed it, but I wanna know why you're here.

To answer your question, yes, I convinced her to sell.

Mom, no.

We won.

We could at least...

[Kate] Let the man speak.

Let's just say my new investment partner

is very passionate about dance.

[light orchestral music]

We're paying off your mortgage, plus 20%,

which you can use for renovations how ya'll see fit

and go ahead and spend those winnings however you want.

I don't understand.

We'll then lease the studio back to you

for $1 a month for five years.

And once you get back on your feet,

we'll negotiate in good faith.

Sounds like a win-win to me.

Excuse me one second.

Thank you.

Thank you, Hadley.

We all just gonna stand around here

or we gonna go celebrate?

Mom, you just got out of the hospital.

I'll take it easy.

I reserved the banquet room at Deck 383, my treat.

Shall we?

We'll meet you guys there.

Just gotta pack up and change.

So, is this it, tiny dancer?

Well, we're gonna join everyone for dinner, right?

You know what I mean.

Uh, actually, I'm gonna stay and help my mom

with the studio.

What about that job of yours?

[light orchestral music]

It's just a job.

Dance is what I love, my family.

This is my home.

I see.

What's going on with you?

Nothing.

It's all good.

You know, we should get going.

[light orchestral music]

You're the mystery investment partner

who's passionate about dance, aren't you?

Yeah.

[laughing]

You know, I guess that means that, technically,

I'm your boss.

We'll see about that.
