I'd chase the whale on the run, but I'm... I'm jumping from mountains

and I'm jumping from the skies.

Um,

maybe Craig's album? Don't hit me.

Oh my god, it dropped yesterday?

I'm looking so awkward posing.

You know, if Craig was still here, it would cut the amount of dork in the

showcase by like 33%. Look, she is the ash.

Who could that possibly be about?

You wrote all these songs in rehab?

Well, not my window.

It's not that bad, actually.

Doesn't sound like the other songs, though.

That's because I wrote it.

Guys, Craig gave me a shout -out in his album, Thank Yous.

Glad one of us got mentioned.

He used one of my songs.

And he didn't credit you.

Well, whatever. I can always make more.

Good, because like it or not, I'm putting you down for the talent

You know what? I'm in.

Maybe it's time I came out of retirement.

86 hours a night.

89.

Let's see Craig plagiarize that.

What grade does it take you to crack a smile?

This means NYU is guaranteed and then we hit law school.

Or we think about law school.

I thought we already did that.

What's the rush?

Maybe there's still some time to chase dreams.

As long as it's a dream you're chasing and not revenge on a songwriting ex.

not about that.

It's not about getting back at Craig for what he did to me. It's about what

Craig did for himself.

He focused on his music, and he made it happen.

It's inspiring.

Inspired by another dude.

Ouch.

Jimmy, you're inspiring, too.

You're awesome, Art.

You're guitar playing.

You're mad freestyle rhyming skills.

Okay, now you're sucking up. I'm not.

Jimmy, I think you're genius.

Well, if you're the beauty and I'm the smart one, there's no problem with that,

so I won't start one, you know?

How do you do that in a nanosecond?

You inspire me, baby.

This

is

high school, not a daycare.

Okay, I don't want to share a locker either, but...

We have to compromise.

Okay. This is not meeting halfway.

Hey,

Holly J. Great locker locale.

Bev, hi.

You look hot even in these disgusting hallways.

We know each other, right?

You probably remember her waddling from class to class. Or Mia.

Jones. I... I was at Lakehurst.

Yeah, yeah, you had a baby.

That her?

Cute.

All right.

See you guys later.

Yeah. Yeah.

Best horse.

And that is why you never try and beat the master at his own game. Well, I

thought you were the sensitive artiste slash clothing designer.

When will you learn?

I'm everything.

Including Degrassi's next superstar's boy toy.

Yeah. What's wrong with being someone else?

No shame.

Ash keeps talking about this chasing our dreams thing.

What I think she really wants is a solo project.

So what are you going to do when she gets all famous on you?

You're not helping.

Well, come on.

She sounds amazing. Her music kicks.

Dude, look at her.

Hey, Ashley, is it true you're a partner with Craig Manning?

We played together, yeah.

Imagine.

You used to perform together on this very stage.

All the time, actually.

Wow.

I heard Sea of the Ash is about you.

You're like our own little piece of him, you know?

Just what I always hoped to be known as.

Uh -huh.

Craig Manning's old girlfriend.

Head -headed for trouble? Are you kidding me?

Get this, man. He's going to die.

Song girl, wrong girl.

Oh, so everyone he kisses is a song title now. Hey, Griffith. Hey, meet

What's up? Oh, and Ashley, two of our oldest friends.

Uh, cool chair, man.

One of the perks of being shot.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, dude.

Uh, Marco, make sure you bring your friends to the open jam, all right?

Later. Open jam?

That sounds cool.

Yeah, he does one every week. It's like one of the three things I know about the

guy.

You trying to get a record deal?

You scared of me making a name for myself?

No, not at all.

As long as it doesn't make you forget about your high school sweetheart.

Perform with me tomorrow.

Are you sure?

That's your song.

You can freestyle over the chorus.

If I'm chasing dreams, you're coming with me.

Okay.

Tell me anything. Stop, stop, stop. Give me a stop.

So it's not tight enough?

No, it's something tonal. It's competing with the piano.

Okay, why don't you just tweak the levels?

Then it's not about the harmony.

I need to figure it out.

Ash, it sounds great right now.

Well, it doesn't sound the way it sounds in my head.

I can fix it, just... I think I have what I need.

Okay.

Give you some head space?

Hand me the ear.

It's talent time, but grab me. Bring your lunch to the gymnasium for our

showcase.

Wow. That fab guy sure is hot.

No, Manny, I call him.

Don't worry, I don't go after 10th graders.

So you gonna talk to him?

It just seems soon.

After the last boyfriend.

Mia, the past is the past. Carpe diem. These the same.

Many have tried. None have succeeded.

Especially ones with baby weight.

Now, what would I do without Holly J. Sinclair looking out for me?

Hold on. Holly J. Sinclair?

As in Heather Sinclair?

She's my sister. Wait.

Boyfriend stealing, bad nose job having, puppy drowning, queen of evil is your

sister?

Taught me everything she knows.

Might be a problem, sweetie.

What? Why?

I have to debate her tomorrow morning.

Tell me everything.

Let's just say if Holly J and Heather share the same DNA, you're going to have

to fight fire with huge, enormous flames.

About a light?

tonal issues i um i went with an earlier version

so it's a solo project it's not that your rap was bad it

didn't really fit you're right now i'm dead

uh thanks guys that was yeah okay that's great

okay uh Up next, she keyboard styled with Craig Manning. Give it up for my

twisted stepsister, Ashley Kerwin.

We're like a no -talent contest.

That was amazing.

I forgot what a Russian was to be on stage.

Cute. It's hope we've earned our song.

Our song?

Right. Your song.

You screwed up my second verse, Jimmy, and my third.

But I helped you pick up the crowd.

I didn't ask you to, and I didn't need it.

Jimmy, all they saw was you.

Thank you.

Let him hear.

This? This is great.

Wish I could have seen it live.

Whatever, high school sucks.

I sing, nobody cares.

Jimmy rambles his rhymes, unrehearsed, they go wild.

Everything's easy for him.

Yeah, except...

Walking? Not what I meant.

People thought I was Craig's sidekick. I don't want to be Jimmy's. Does that

make me a bitch?

I forgot I asked.

That's a cool melody. Who is this?

I ain't looking at her.

This is you?

Who's out with the flow?

Jimmy.

Dude from last night?

Wheelchair?

Are you guys coming to the open jam tomorrow night? Oh, they're busy.

No, we're not.

Cool. Make sure Jimmy comes, because there's going to be so many of our guys

there, and they should really see him.

Actually, I'm not really sure that's a thing, but I wrote and produced this. I

could be there.

Yeah, sure. I mean, if it's cool with Jimmy, I guess you can perform with him.

When intelligent people look at both sides, a

fight... Becomes a debate.

Remember, passion is persuasive.

Let's see it.

Our topic is foreign adoption, with Holly J on affirmative and Mia on

Be it resolved that foreign adoption has many benefits. By illustrating these

benefits, I intend to prove that...

Um, Griffin, Elle's roommate, wants you to perform at his open jam tonight.

That's amazing.

Okay, uh, okay, we gotta double the harmony.

I'm gonna layer this new rhyme.

Uh, no, not we.

He just wants you.

Oh.

So I'm gonna forget it.

Jimmy, you saw the audience yesterday.

I can take a hint.

I'm not a performer like you.

Look, we are a team.

And this is an amazing opportunity.

Okay.

Be there.

Orphan children in other countries receive far less care than orphan

here. That doesn't mean those children don't need a family just as much.

Point of personal privilege, Mr. Chairman. Just because I don't have a

Point of inquiry, Mr. Chairman.

Does the speaker realize that her spray tan is running?

Seth. Uh, speaker is out of order. My worthy opponent is biased due to her

matronly obligation.

And cankle. Well, then maybe we should debate testing for psychosis in herpes

-infected teens.

Since the speaker's highly qualified... Order in the court.

Mia.

If you can't be mature about this, take a seat.

But, Ms. Kwan, I was... Next group.

Yo, man, you seen Ashley? The girlfriend?

No, dude.

Look, if she doesn't show, I'm not taking no for an answer. I need you up

She's the music, though.

She's taken care of.

What? Where'd you get that?

Don't worry about it, man.

Listen, you do you, okay? If this goes well, this could mean big things down

road for both of us.

Got it?

Griffin, two minutes.

You're up next.

Do you have room for one more?

Actually, I've got room for one and a half.

Hey,

Sav, about the debate.

I was stupid.

Hey, Holly J has got a knack for provocation. Trust me, I know.

Oh.

Why were you guys ever... Oh, no.

No way.

The only thing she and I have in common is Lakers.

So, you're not seeing anyone?

Nah, free as a bird.

All

right,

everybody having a good time out there?

Yeah? Okay, you ain't seen nothing yet. Everybody give it up for my newest fan,

Jimmy Brooks.

Look, me and the mic, we coexist.

My flow is a glass box with no exits.

And you can observe why you trapped in it. Took my lady's track and I sprinkled

some breath in it. And now they like, please, please tell us your reality,

We can't fathom how it's there to be forever confined.

My mother always told me what to do with my best foot. So sit and say you know

that it is never behind.

And metaphorically, I'm ahead of the rest. And proud of the fact that I've

accomplished that.

Vocal track sounds great. Must be really happy. This is really good for him.

Yeah, definitely better than meeting up there with him.

Tell me anything but the truth. Can't figure out how I'm supposed to make it

now. Tell me lies.

I said tell me lies.

So,

got a CD for me or what?

Where were you?

Over there watching you kick ass.

So why didn't you come up?

Because you didn't need me.

Guess what?

I just talked to the guy from Cobase Records. He wants to hear more.

Are you serious?

Yeah. Jimmy?

He loved you, but he also said that Ash's backing track was, um, seductive.

Really? I wonder if it was the second verse progression.

And get this, okay?

When I told him you were a young producer, he said he wanted to hear a

Yeah, you guys are the real deal, and I think this could be awesome, okay? So

you should be excited.

Wherever I go, you're coming with me.

Nia, I had a great time last night.

So many coffees, I couldn't sleep.

Listen, tell Isabella I said thanks, huh?

Tell her yourself.

We go to the park after school.

Want to join us?

Uh, sorry, I got to soccer.

Well, then maybe next time.

Nia, you're great.

But I don't want to jump into anything until I've got my bearings around here,

okay?

Yeah, of course.

See you in class, okay?

So, search for stepdaddy continues, huh?

That's sad.

You're evicted, Holly J.

You can't evict me. I am?

Looks like I just did.

Looks like Craig is going to have some competition.

Did you send a demo off yet?

Oh, I'm just bringing a new version.

What new version?

I just needed a few tweaks.

Such the perfectionist.

But you are the brains of this outfit, and if it doesn't work out, then at

we can both go to law school.

Okay, I have two minutes, so I'm going to go find Spin, and I will see you in

science class.

track and i break up some rap in it and now they like please please tell us your

reality no shame
