All language subtitles for Dance Life (2024) - S1E05 (Grad)

[train clattering]

[Max O] When I dance,

I've definitely got somewhere in my mind
that anyone could be watching.

[classical music playing]

[Kim] In Grad, at all times,

you're gonna have someone or multiple
people watching you and you only.

[Emily] If you really want it,
you gotta go for it.

[Erin] A lot of people in
our Full Time course

think they're gonna get scouted at Grad.

But a large proportion of every
Full Time year comes out

and has nothing.

[classical music continues]

There's a hundred things
that can go wrong,

so it's your job now not to let
any of those things happen.

- Yeah?
- [class] Yeah.

This is yours now.
Everything in the show is yours.

You want to finish Grad and then,
in a few days' time,

either get an offer from an agent

or a choreographer
reaching out to you saying,

"I have a job coming up.
I want you to be on it."

That's the dream.

[silence]

[solitary beat]

[distant roadway noise]

[Tom] Ready? One, two, three, four.

[shoes squeaking]

[Archer] I'm excited to leave,

but I'm nervous to be on my own,

if that makes sense.

Like, I'm on my own, which is terrifying.

But also, I'm on my own!
But, like, I'm on my own.

So, like, I don't know.

Make sure it's, like, confident.

Make sure you, like,
give him some space there.

[pensive music playing]

Everyone's going to leave Full Time
and they're gonna, like, cry

and get emotional, but, like,

they don't know how it feels

to be at Brent Street for 13 years,

and, like, that's your home.

Like, I genuinely don't know
what I'm gonna do when I leave here

because I've been here
since I was eight years old.

[Cassie] We're all in that state
of Grad at the moment

that, like, one thing could go wrong

and you could just burst into tears
because you're like, "I can't."

[laughs]

'Cause there's so much going on.

But it will be rewarding.

[Max O] This is actually it.
This is, like, our last performance.

Oh God.

Yeah, now, now I'm nervous,
talking about it. [laughs]

[Erin] My goal is to be
the best in the show.

My goal was to rest and be better.

But also that.

Like, rest and be better so that
I can be the best in the show.

But at this rate,
I'm looking like the weakest link.

No, you're not.

Mate.

[drink bottles clattering]

Gotta…

I've left something in the costume room.

[indistinct student chatter]

[Lucas] That's all right.
That's all right. You can sniffle.

- And so, this is a little number.
- Yeah.

[Lucas] Did you want to try
this on privately

so you can see
if this size is correct for you?

- [Archer] Yeah.
- I just want to make sure that

- you feel like you can…
- Yeah.

… go out there and feel awesome.

- That's all it's about.
- [Maddy] Yeah.

[Lucas] Go and try it on.
Make sure the size is okay.

[indistinct chatter]

[door creaking]

[clicks]

[Archer] Thanks.

Hold your hair.

I'm gonna sneeze.

[costume clip clicks]

Achoo! Okay.

[Archer] I mean, when I sneeze…

[laughs] You put those on.

[Archer] Look at these things.

Oh my God, you're so pretty.

Look at this.

This is cute.

[Arabella squeals]

- What, you want me to show them now?
- Are you excited?

[Arabella] Aw!

Love.

[Arabella laughs]

[Archer] We're literally sisters.

Showgirls.

Oh yes. Love.

Ooh.

Shwoo!

- The sock.
- And stand.

- Ah!
- Shoom!

Okay, leg needs to come down
or I'll cramp.

[roadway noise]

I am very much who I've wanted to become

since I was a very little girl.

When I'm on stage,

it's like a relief, honestly,

to, like, emote on stage

and, like, show yourself

and be appreciated, um,

and be appreciated as, like, beautiful.

I just need to make sure that

I'm on that stage
and I'm enjoying what I'm doing,

and that energy will just flow,

and I will just do what I've always done,

and perform the shit out of this Grad.

So, I'm excited.

[anticipatory music playing]

[Tiana] Wake up.

- [Tom groans]
- It's Grad Day.

I might still have makeup on
from last night.

- That's okay.
- 'Cause I fell asleep…

- I can take it off.
- … in what I was wearing.

No, it looks fine.
But I'll, like, go over it quickly.

Thank you.

[anticipatory music continues]

[Kim] This doesn't feel real. [laughs]

Like, I just woke up and, like,
went onto my phone

and someone was, like, "It's Grad Day."

I was like, "No, it's not."

[Conor] No. It's not.

Because why has this year been, like,
it's gone in a blink of an eye?

Literally. I remember the first day
and they were like,

"Grad is gonna be the best day ever."

- And now, like…
- And now I'm here…

It's actually Grad.

It's too early for me to be excited.

Like, I am, but I'm just like…

um…

I'm just not thinking about it yet.

Like, I reckon just give me a little bacon
and egg, a little bit of brekkie,

and I'll be like, "Whoo!"

[Conor] Oh my God,
I feel like a soccer mum.

'Cause I'm chopping up the oranges
ready for the game.

[Kim] I think my undies are in my car.

[Kim laughs]

[Connor] Like, pikelets so…

I have to run down like this.

- I don't have my undies in here.
- [Conor] Kim. I will…

[indistinctly] You don’t have to
fit those in that, I do.

I don't know what you're saying.
I can't hear you. Goodbye.

[birds twittering]

[Les] She's had some amazing teachers
and mentors at Brent Street.

And the concert will be phenomenal,
as it always is with Brent Street.

It's just a real show.

[Dale] We try and remind her

how her mother would be so proud
of what she has become

because that's the life that I'm sure

Amy would have wanted to live for herself.

When she's dancing, that's…
that's who she really is.

That's when it all comes out.

Her first dance competition
that she went to,

I was worried 'cause I thought,
"She's going to be so nervous."

She wasn't.

She got up on that stage
and blew it away and she won.

You better put in, that's from
her grandmother saying that too.

'Cause, you know, people will say,
"Who's the old lady?"

[both laugh]

[anticipatory music playing]

[rhythmic bass beat]

[epic vocalizing]

[indistinct chatter]

Calm and collected walking in.

[Max S] Daniel when he comes out.

[indistinct chatter]

It's still, like…

Further forward. Yup.

We're gonna get them in
a straight line there.

[woman] Full speed ahead.

Relax.

[Amelia] So, watch out. Look up.

At any moment,
you could just die in this place.

- [anticipatory music continues]
- [indistinct chatter]

[Lucas] I'm really excited that
we're finally here. [laughs]

[students cheering]

I couldn't sleep last night. I woke up
at, like, two in the morning

and was all really excited,
so I made some notes.

Like, enjoy it.

Don't be, like, don't take it for granted.

Like, this is the time that you,
you came here for, so enjoy it,

but also just be sensible
and please be professional.

That's all I ask.

- All right, let's go!
- [students cheer, clap]

Okay, guys, so, I'm really happy
for you all to be here.

[male student] Shut up.

[Erin] I think we should just have
a couple of rules.

Rule number one is stay in your area.

- Rule number…
- [indistinct chatter]

Rule number two is, um, if you can't ac…

No, like, this is, like,
actually a serious rule.

If you can't find anything of your own,

- do not steal somebody else's.
- Yeah.

[Erin] And no, um, kissing,
please, or hugging.

Relationships out the door.

- And also, if you have…
- [indistinct chatter]

If you have negative energy, get out.

[stage crew speaking indistinctly]

Yep. Ah, mate, is that, is that shadow…

So, I just found out Arabella's sick.

She's been vomiting all night.
Is not feeling well.

But I think it's very, very lucky
we pre-recorded just in case.

'Cause, um, I don't know
how she's gonna feel or sound.

We've heard… we've heard that Arabella
is vomiting really badly at home.

I don't know why I'm smiling.

- [laughs] That's so fucked up.
- [female] Erin?

[pensive music playing]

[Arabella] I'm wearing Conor's undies.

[laughs]

- [groans]
- No, it's booger.

Oh, no you don't.

[Arabella groans]

I just started spewing,

to put it nicely.

And I just haven't stopped.

I have a fever, coughing, snot.

Achy.

Achy-breaky heart.

I reckon she should just
wait until 1:00 p.m.,

and see if she feels fine
and then comes in.

Just, like, rest at home.

- "Cinema Italiano"…
- …on next. I'm going side stage.

[producer] Can you guys
tell me who you think

could be Arabella in "Cinema Italiano"?

- [Max S] No one.
- No one.

- No one could do it. Erin?
- [producer] No one could do it?

- No one.
- Me.

- Absolutely no one can take Arabella's…
- Me. Me. Me.

No. No.

Absolutely no one can take
Arabella's spot.

No, she just does it…

- [Erin] She will do it.
- [Max S] She's gonna pull through.

- She's gonna do it. She's gonna do it.
- She's doing it.

She's gonna do it.

[Max S] She's gonna do it.

[pensive music playing]

The nerves?

A hundred right now.

I, obviously, have always wanted
to be a dancer since I was little,

and, you know, even getting
up to this point,

like, even when I was little, I'd say,

"I'm gonna go
to Brent Street for Full Time,"

and, like, now that it's here, I'm like,

"Okay, crap, I'm actually doing it now.
What am I going to do after?"

You know? And to do something after,
I think, personally, that

agents are the best way
to keep being a dancer.

[Ryan] We have probably about eight agents

coming to see the show.

Grad's an opportunity for you
to be able to scout.

Um, for the agents to see, you know,

who's doing what, who's stepping out,

who's, you know, who's in the front a lot.

Um, you know, and they're in the front
for a reason, usually.

There's other things as well.

You know, it is technique.

It is a performance quality.

It's that little extra joy that
is behind the eyes.

I can look at those kids
and I can clock and I can say,

"Oh, you have it."

You know, "You want this."

And that makes me want it,

and then that makes me say,
"Oh no, people are gonna book them."

People are gonna say, "Oh no,
I need to work with this person."

[Cassie] We're good to start
to walk through.

Don't talk!

You're in our dressing room.

Guys, stop the congregation.
Stay in your dressing room.

[Erin] Oh my God.

[female student] We needed tape.

We could have just given you the tape. You
could have stayed in your dressing room.

[Conor] Guys, let's not
turn against each other.

[Cara] Marcus, can you not get…

[Conor] We're a family.

[all laugh]

[Cassie] This should be second nature.
You know what to do.

This is where Cassie starts to lose it.

[Cassie] Yup?

I hope to be calm,
just to keep everything happening,

but, look, there's no guarantees.

The next position, quickly!

Archer, you need to start practicing
looking out and up there.

One, two.

- That looks terrible.
- [Lucas] Awful.

Six, seven, eight, boom.

So, boys, you don't need to hold hands.

Okay, let's just keep going, then.

You won't fuck it up.

You'll just get it right.

- [Conor] Hey, we will.
- [Lucas] All right.

[Cassie] I'm bored.

[Erin] Guys, I'm gonna fuckin' lose it.

- No, Erin.
- Why are they all…

I made a new change. Just hit it.

I was like, "Why are you running?!"

[Samuel] This is a tough, tough industry.

There's so many more noes
than there are yesses.

[Cassie] Step it up. Now or never, right?

[Samuel] People ask,
why should they do this, then?

Why should these kids
continue on doing this?

Well, because nothing
is like being on stage.

Come on, let's go!

[electrifying music playing]

I'll take that, Max. Nice work.

If you dance like that for the whole show,
I'll be very happy.

Keep it up, please. Go.

[electrifying violin music playing]

[Cassie] Nice!

[Samuel] You can walk into Grad

and have not seen a person perform

at all,

but just see what you've seen on stage

and offer them a contract.

[pensive music playing]

[pensive music continues playing]

[Max O] Because dance is so reliant on
the surface and the area that you're in,

when you change the room and the
atmosphere and the floor or anything,

it hinders or affects
the overall performance.

[pensive music playing]

In fact, you can train your ass off
every day in the studio,

you can have a dance perfect,

but it does not mean for a second

that it is going to run as flawlessly
as it did in a studio on stage.

[pensive music continues]

- [Molly] … believe today is today.
- Crazy that tonight, it will all be over.

[Molly] It's like, this is the last time
we're ever gonna dance on stage together.

- [Malaya] Don't say that.
- [Molly] Yeah.

- [Malaya] Stop, that's too sad.
- [Molly] Yeah.

[Max O] You always hear stories about how

people get booked from one performance.

One walk across the stage

with the right charisma

can get you an agent.

And I realize that

I don't know how many more chances
after Full Time I'm gonna get.

So, I feel like you're gonna have to be
ready, like, in 20 minutes' time.

We're about to go on stage.
I am not ready.

I can't see myself anywhere else
except for dance.

So I have to, by all means possible,
make it work for myself.

[Arabella] Just letting you know
I'm here and ready to rumble.

Great.

It's all right. We'll put
the vocal track on.

Can we all head to stage, please?

[students] Yeah.

[Cassie] Heading to stage, please.

[indistinct chatter]

Keep it around. Keep…

Keep going. Keep coming, keep coming,
keep coming, keep coming.

- Yeah.
- We're ready to do this, I think.

Yeah.

- Yeah?
- [scattered students] Yeah.

[Cassie] Are you? I don't know, are you?

[all, loudly] Yeah!

[Lucas] Hey, um…

I literally just got, like, butterflies
in my stomach just, just then.

- [students] Oh yeah!
- [Cassie] Yeah?

[Lucas] Just think back to that first day

that we had orientation day.

[student] Yeah.

[Lucas] Remember how you felt that day?

Think about the performances
that we've done together,

the experiences that we've had together,

and think about all of the teachers
that you've had.

Tonight's the night
where that all comes into fruition

and that you get
to put that into practice.

I've never had more messages saying,
like, "I can't wait to see this Grad."

So, no pressure, but, but also, like,
heaps of pressure, yeah?

So, like, step up to the challenge.

I, like, I know, like, I would.
If someone said that to me, I'd be like,

"All right, well,
I'm gonna put on a show then."

Do not let one moment go by that
you are not fighting for your life.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

[Cassie] I'm so proud of
how you've handled yourselves.

We've had lows, we've had highs,

but that makes us a family, yeah?

And we are here for you for
the rest of your life.

- [students, Lucas] One, two, three!
- [student] What are we saying?

[all] Brent Street!

[students cheering]

[anticipatory music building]

[no audible dialog]

Extremely nervous. Like, watery eyes.

And we've got, like, how many minutes?
Two minutes?

Two. Yep.

[indistinct student chatter]

Hey. I'm freaking out.

- [Emily] Gonna do it?
- Yep.

Quickly.

[indistinct student chatter]

Okay, next.

[Emily] And then…

- Whoo! Hugs.
- [Emily] I think it's really good.

[both laughing]

[anticipatory music building]

I just cried. I can't do it again.

[female student]
No more crying. Drink the water.

[producer] Crying with happy or crying…?

Happy and sad, like, when I… yeah.

Ugh!

Not now.

[indistinct student chatter]

I don't know why I get so nervous.

- [female student 1] Are you nervous? Why?
- I want to cry, I'm that nervous.

I just get scared that
I'm gonna forget it.

- [female student 1] Oh my God, Erin.
- [female student 2] Are you…?

[female student 1]
Have you forgotten it once so far?

- No.
- [female student 1] Right.

- There you go, then. [laughs]
- Yeah.

[anticipatory music keeps building]

- [Erin] One minute?
- [woman] Oh, okay.

[woman] It'll be, like…

Just one minute? Okay, fine.

[female student]
There we go. Okay, got it.

[anticipatory music keeps building]

[drummer] Do you know where
your family's sitting?

[Emily] Yeah. I do.

I know where everyone's sitting,
like, all my family.

I'm like, ah!

[drummer] You'll kill it.
They'll be so proud.

- Yeah. Hopefully.
- [drummer laughs] Be so, so good.

[anticipatory music keeps building]

[Emily] Whenever I do go
to perform in a concert,

I always think that, like,

"Oh, I just wish my mum and dad
could be here to watch me."

Because that's, like,
all I've ever wanted.

[pensive music playing]

I have had that upbringing that's
forced me to be strong

and to continue on without worrying about
everything else that has happened.

I think because of that,
it's made me a lot stronger

than some people may think.

[crowd, students cheering]

- Uh-oh.
- [drum roll]

That's sound.

[female student] Go Emily!

[Cassie] Eat it up!

[drum roll]

[drum roll continues]

[electronic music playing]

[percussive beat playing]

[crowd screaming]

[Cassie screaming] Let's go!

Come on, boys!

[percussive beat keeps playing]

[crowd whistling, applauding]

[Cassie] Let's go, Kim!

[Cassie, shrieking] Let's go, Kim!

[beat continues]

[beat stops]

[crowd cheering]

[cheering continues]

[tense stringed music playing]

[Max O] At the beginning of the year,
I had this outlook where

Full Time is the year to discover
who you are as a person.

[Max O] That was terrible again.

Stop going so high. I can't go that high.

You've gotta go… look at my elbow.

Yeah, okay.

[Max O] On an emotional level,
I've definitely developed.

I'm not the person I was.

I just hope that reflects
in my performance.

[music crescendos, then hushes]

[angsty music playing]

[Cassie] Yeah.

Nice.

[audience cheering]

[cheering and applause]

[song ends]

[cheering, applause]

[Arabella] Whoo!

[Max S] We're done, guys.

[anticipatory music playing]

[Archer] At the beginning of the year,
I was super apologetic.

And I think that has changed in some ways.

I've started to, like,
respect myself more.

I pride myself on living
without definition,

not just in terms of my gender,

which is obviously where
everyone will focus, naturally,

'cause it's, like, non-binary.

Um…

But, like, I don't, I don't care
if someone's trying to put me in a box.

Like, I'm not going to go in the box.

I'm still not
where I want to be, but, like,

yeah, I just want, like,
to be a star for Grad.

Like, you know when you're on a runway
and you're like, all about me?

- Yeah?
- It's no different from a stage.

So true, yeah.

Like, make everyone fall in love with you

and want to marry you
and that sort of thing.

We're so close to the end,

and I need, I need my moment.

Because the right people
who I want to be seen by are watching.

[crowd screaming]

[Maison Ware & Madeaux:
"Body On Me" continues playing]

[Cassie] Yeah!

[Cassie screaming supportively]

[Cassie] Do this! Let's go!

Let's go!

[Cassie cheering]

[Maison Ware & Madeaux:
"Body On Me" continues playing]

[song ends]

[crowd cheering]

- Love you so much.
- Love you more.

Okay, let's fuckin'…

["Hit The Road Jack" intro music playing]

[no audible dialog]

Let's go!

[music picks up tempo]

[cheering]

[song ends]

[Cassie, crowd cheering]

[indistinct chatter]

[Max S] I'm…

I'm so good
at acting straight in that one.

It's not even fucking funny.

[indistinct chatter]

[Arabella] Beautiful.

[Jacob] You know what?
That felt pretty fucking good.

That felt really good.

[Jacob] That felt good.

[Tiana] That routine has
never felt good to me.

No, same.

- It's crazy what a good crowd…
- [Ava] Yeah.

- [Jacob] Yeah, that was a good crowd.
- [Georgia] How much of a difference…

- Get changed and I'll gaffer tape you.
- [Conor] And then we'll talk.

- [Erin] We'll talk later.
- [Tiana] Talk… Change. Talk later.

[Tiana] Yeah, let's chat, like…

[Conor] I should have brought,
like, a sweat towel.

I'm really stressed for "Cinema Italiano".

We haven't done it properly yet.

I don't… I haven't done it properly yet.

I'm dying, Arch.

[sniffs determinedly]

[Archer] You look pretty slay
for a dead girl, so.

I have a huge responsibility of setting
the tone of the whole piece.

And so if everyone behind me
is not performing,

like, I have to compensate
for people behind me.

No, you know what?
I think I'm actually okay.

This might be the last time
I will be featured for a while.

Okay, I'm literally, physically living
the ultimate reality.

- Why am I so stressed about it?
- No, fucking oath.

Like, I wanted it. I got it.
Now, I've got to do it.

I want to be seen by…

everyone.

[panting]

[indistinct chatter]

And just chuck it on the blue suitcase.
It has blue patterns on it.

- Are you good?
- Good, thank you.

[woman] Good luck. Conor, you got it?

You're fine, Conor. Breathe.

[cheering]

Guys, we're literally nearly done.

[Conor] I know.

- [Max S] Bullshit.
- [Connor laughs]

I want to go other side just in case
that was my bad side.

No, I reckon put your leg up.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[pensive music playing]

[Emily] I have this mentality
of wanting to

show people that

there's more to dance than what,
like, people think there is.

Because of the circumstances
I've been in as a child,

dance was my distraction.

It's what made me happy.

It made me not think about the things

that were happening in my life back then.

That's just why I love dance so much.

Because it can do stuff like that.

It can just change someone's perspective.

It's changed my life, honestly.

I need to go on next.

And, like, next dance,
I need to go on and sing again.

[Daniel] Yep.

And do it all again.

Like, I'd like to do it once more.

- [Daniel] Yeah.
- [crowd cheering]

That's how you should feel.

Imagine if you didn't.
You'd be in the wrong game.

Exactly.

Wow. Yeah, I would.

I look back at when I got into Jazz 2
and I was, like, pfft!

I, like, I wasn't Jazz 1 ready,

and I'm so grateful for the fact
that I was put in 2

because it really pushed me, um,

and it made me more hungry.

[Emily] I want people to see me as
not the person with the shitty childhood.

I want to be seen as the person who's…

happy now

and living her life to the fullest.

[Miley Cyrus: "Younger Now" playing]

[crowd cheering]

[Miley Cyrus: "Younger Now"

- [Tiana] Good?
- [Tom] Perfect.

[all cheering]

[Miley Cyrus: "Younger Now"

[inspiring music playing]

It's hard to say goodbye to
some of these kids.

You put your heart and soul
into working with them,

and you see them grow.

You watch them figure it out,

and it's so good to see it click and go,
"They're gonna be fine."

"They've got this."

Awesome. Congrats, babe.

- That's actually amazing.
- Thank you so much.

So proud of you.
