All Styles (2018)
Brandon. You're not here
to play games. Reset time! Sir. Horse stance. Sir. Sir. Sir. -Class dismissed. Sir. Good job. All right now, baby. Let's roll. Show us what you got Show us what you got. Whoo! What a way to start this thing off. Go, go. Oh, I see y'all. Hey. Lunge toss. Y'all gots to top that, baby. All right, guys, come on. What you got? Hey, okay. -Hey, hey, hey, okay. Okay. Go. I see you. Hey, hey. I see you. I see you. Okay, okay. Come on. Move up in the same spot. Now would you look at the tag team. No, y'all can't let this come out. Oh, baby. No, no, no. Let's go. I see you, girl. Oh! Ah. Oh... Yah-yah. Yah-yah with the fly-by. Taking something crazy, baby. Mm, oh, hey, hey. -Yeah Oh! Oh, no, she didn't. Let's go. Get her. Look at this. This is amazing. Now we got ourselves a competition tonight, y'all. What else y'all got? Hold on, man. I got this. Seriously? Take it. Don't worry, it's all gravy, baby. Every time. -Turn that off. What are y'all doing in here? Y'all on private property. Y'all trespassing! Y'all got to roll out. Don't be looking at me. Get out of here. Just go! See you, college boy. Bye, Brandon! I can't believe you. You got all these people in here with shoes on. What if somebody got hurt? That would be my responsibility. No one would have got hurt. We were just dancing. Oh, just dancing. Well, excuse the hell out of me. You need to get serious, son. Ain't no time for fun and games in college. You said you wanted to be a researcher. What do you gonna do, research dance moves? Oh, something funny? No. You better focus, boy. I want you to clean up this mess your friends left you. No TV, no car, no computer, no phone, no nothing. Are you serious? How am I supposed to get anything done? Oh, now you concerned about getting stuff done. You should have ran that through in your mind in the first place. I'm disappointed in you. I'm going to make you proud. You need some help with that? -No, I'm good. Yeah. So I guess I'm there? Yeah, yeah. But, I mean, if you wanted to switch sides, I can easily move. No, it's okay. Okay. Uh... yeah, some boxes came by this morning. I just put them over there. Yeah, sorry, you never answered any of my emails, so I just-- I chose a side. It's cool. So you're from Vegas? Yup. Prostitution's free. I mean, it's legal over there. Yeah. I was going to try to make a prostitution joke or something, -but... No, no. I... Just forget it, yeah. -Come in. Hey. I'm Rosalie. Hi. Yeah. I'm Nate. You're our RA. Yeah. I researched you on Instagram. I just want to let you know that I too am a fan of little succulents. -Yeah. You must be Brandon. Hi. I'm also your biochemistry TA. And that class is a beast, but I'm around if you need any extra help. Hey. How can I get in that class? You couldn't handle it. Oh, I also want to let you know about the first night party. It's downstairs at 11:00. Oh, who's all going? Well, first-years. Are they all as gorgeous as you? Uh... see you later. Yeah. Count on it. I felt a connection. You coming? Nope. You'll get dibs on all the first-years. Yeah, you sure you want to wear What? Never mind. No, no, it's just pretty cool. It's pretty cool. I kind of like this a little bit better. And it's all right, it's all right. But you should come see it sometime. Hey. You should go. It's lame. Don't ask. Many reactions proceed to a lower energy state and are thus favored thermodynamically. Your text gives three examples of this. One: a hydrolysis of starch to glucose. And two others. Name them. Come on. Anyone. -Hi, Professor Schmidt. I'm Maddie Beeber. So excited to be here. So I just wanted to remind you that today is the first day of class, so no one has done any reading yet. If you wish to whimper about the requirements, you could go down the hall to Biology 101 with the rest of the woefully unprepared students. Leave. You heard me. Yes? The splitting of phosphate groups from other phosphates is one example, sir. Correct. And the rearranging of glucose to fructose is another. Also true. This is not a class for students unwilling to take the initiative in understanding these concepts without me holding your hand. I just want to emphasize that reactions are reversible. They can be coupled so that energy from one drives another. Also true. Uh, this class is over when I say it's over. Class dismissed. Hey, come check us out. Hey. Zumba classes, Tuesday, 2:00 p.m. Ooh, baby Sweet baby I want to rip that thing All night long Baby, oh All night long Oh, baby Oh All night long You need that booty whipped Baby All night long You need that booty whipped Baby Oh, all night long Five, six, follow my lead. This is another Big R remix -Okay, okay. Why don't you guys take a break. All right, come here. Here's some inspiration. [hip-hop music playing over computer] -Oh! -They're good. Oh... So hot. So I saw your video. You're just now seeing it? I sent that to you so long ago. That's not the point. You and Dante look really close, for a girl with a boyfriend, Oh, so now you're my boyfriend? Because you don't act like it. What's that supposed to mean? Not everything's the Brandon Show. You think we were going to stop being a crew because you decided to leave? I got to go. Of course you do. Did you hear about that girl who got kicked out of Biochem? You are the most depressing roommate in the history of roommates. You barely talk to anyone, and you keep watching that dance video over and over again. Listen, I know your girlfriend dumped you, and it sucks, but I've been dumped like a million times. How do you know about that? Listen, I'm going to drive to the mall. -No. Come on. I know you're tired of cafeteria food. Get up. Hey, you here alone? That's a lot of bags. I can... I can carry them. -Some of them. I'm good. Turns out that she had a "boyfriend." You know, so... So, we got to spread the word. What are you talking about? Your dance crew. -Come on. You need a new dance crew, so let's get you one. It's not that easy. Yes, it is. Look, I can help. Why would you want to help? Well... -Women. -Women. Look, Nate, you can't trust people. I learned that with my old crew, Levelz. Plus, I got schoolwork to do. Well, it should work if you just take it out of your sleeping and moping time. It's a joke. Look, there's just no talent here. There's plenty of talent here. Okay, thank you guys for coming to the auditions. Um, we will not be doing choreography. Instead, you're going to own your moves, keep your head high, and battle. Take it away. Number one, go. Hey. Hey, let's go. All right. Number two. You got this. Come on. Take it. A little more. All right. All right. All right. Hey! Okay. Enough, enough, enough. All right, enough, enough, enough. Okay. I appreciate everyone for coming. We will get back to you. Great. Great, right? Oh, man. We've got to keep looking. -Yeah. This is a bad idea. -Okay, well, next time just try teaching choreography. Okay, okay, I know, I have no idea what I'm talking about. Look, the purpose of a dance crew is to find people who do their own thing. They got to have their own style. Well, if that's the case, then we're going to just have to find these people. I mean, they're not going to come to us. We're looking for research assistants over at Pennington. It's for a new clinical trial we're starting up. It's work study, so you'll get paid. Not much... but you'll have the undying respect of all your peers. Oh, come by Friday at 10:00. We'll get you acclimated. Thank you so much. And I was just wondering, about our tests, if you would... Oh, yes, Miss Dhawan. Yes. You both made A's. See? We're good. Don't be over here worried about nothing. Sir. -Sir. -Sir. Fight! Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Continue without any contact, okay? -Sir. -Sir. -No contact. -Sir. Hello? Hey, Dad. I got asked to be research assistant. What? That's good news, Brandon! Yeah. Professor Schmidt was pretty impressed by me. Wow. Brandon, I'm proud of you. That's great news. When does this happen? Brandon, are you... are you still there? -Hey, Dad, let me... -I can't even hear you. Let me call you back. When did this happen...? Hello? Brandon? Okay, the art department loves this guy. Pretty good, right? -Okay. -Ooh! -Yeah. -He's... -Yeah. -We can work with that. -Yeah. Okay. Sweet little moment Oh, Lord Sweet That's pretty good. Okay, dude, listen, you got to listen. I need you to meet me at the Bon Temps. It's the zydeco club. It's what you asked me... just meet me there, okay? Okay, sweet, bye. Not bad, right? Hey Ha-ha Well Whoo Oh, rock it I said Skeeter Oh, what, what Skeeter What, what You want to talk to me - Oh, yeah - Something you want to say Do you wanna know What I want to say? Take your time You got to make it rhyme Yeah, I said Talk to me, Skeeter You got to take your time Oh, talk Is there something That was designed Hey. What? So all you imitators go ahead And pick up on this Pick it up Ow What? Okay. Yo, you are seriously dope. You want to join my dance crew? Okay. Sure. Hey! Hey. Hey, hey, hey. I'm not sure about this. Trust me. Whoa. She is never going to join this crew. I got this. Found her. I'm sorry, can I help you? Uh... oh. I remember you from class. -Yeah. -You guys... you sort of stood around. It was creepy. That's a good one. Yeah, yeah. I wanted to talk to you about something. Well, it's... ...it's just that... you are so beautiful. Okay, okay, you know, what do you want? Okay, look, my friend Brandon and I, we're starting this dance crew, and we want you to be in it. Are you a dancer? No. No, I'm more like... I'm more like the manager. -Hmm. -Yeah. Yeah. And how old are you? Age is just a number. Do you know how old I am? I don't know, 25? That's sweet. No, yeah, I'm in my 30s. Okay. Yeah. And I just... I can't do it. Why not? It's-- this is just-- okay, this is strange, okay? -And, you know... -Just hear me out. The crew is people who do all kinds of dance, and it's just for fun. Brandon is an amazing dancer. His old crew Levelz is huge. You can see a bunch of their old stuff online. I mean, it's legit, I swear. Look, it... come to one rehearsal. One. And if you don't like it... don't come back. Yo, Professor Schmidt told us to come here for... Oh, yeah. You're the new minions. Grab that box of raspberries and get started. Wash them thoroughly, and when you're done I'll show you what to do next. Okay. I cannot believe I signed up to work at Jamba Juice. It's just the first day. Hey, um... can I sneak out? I don't care. Oh, they're for a dance class. Hmm. Four, five, six, seven, eight. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. -Thank you guys so much for class. And let's give a round of applause to our guest, Brandon. Whoo! And Nate, of course. Nate. Yo, you are amazing. Thanks. I'm starting this new dance crew. You got to be in it. A dance crew? I mean, I only really do bhangra. But you don't know that. Well, I guess not. Please, please, please. You have been practicing those formation steps at home for months now. I have so much studying to do. Okay, at least come to the first rehearsal. Okay. -Oh! This is going to be great. You really... yeah, I wish I could. I wish I could. You know, the guy who could juggle the hats was amazing. I mean, that's a skill you could use. Hello. Hello. Earth to Brandon. Come in. Just reminding you boys that we leave in five minutes to head over to my friend's pep rally. You'll be sorely disappointed if you miss it. I think I'll pass. I have a lot of work to do. Yeah, I think I'll pass too. I might just stay in, find a glass of wine. Read some Salinger. Listen, I can see you're not having much fun. And the adjustment to college life is hard for a lot of out-of-state students. So come on, relax. Please. Okay, okay. Fine. I'm really flattered that you want me to go this badly. I'll clear my schedule. Yes. You and everyone else on the floor. Welcome, welcome, fans. Our very own Sweethearts are here to start the weekend off right. And then we're introducing your 2017 men's basketball team. You see our fierce sister, Dee Dee. Whoo! Go, Dee Dee! This is lame. I'm getting the car. The band and our Sweethearts just scalped the competition in the ATL Classic. Bring us some love today, fans. That's right, even more. Come on, keep it coming. Nate. Hey, car's four minutes away. We got to go. I can't get another bad review. Look at her. She is...perfect. Ladies, let's show the fans how much we love them. We've got to have her join. Yeah. What's up? Are you ready to meet this year's team? -I'm going to go talk to her. -All right. Just... 6'6" sophomore from Miami, Florida... Taj Key. Excuse me. I don't mean to interrupt. Well, I do, but not stop you. Well, you're stopped now. My name is Brandon. I appreciate your talent. I'm looking to assemble the best dancers in Baton Rouge for a new crew, and I'd love for you to join. Not to brag or anything, but I have won some national battles. You could check out me and my crew Levelz online. Lark, I know he did not just tell you you can Google him. Can't be. Lark. Huh. Well, at least come to an audition, or a rehearsal, so you can see that I'm real. From sunny Santa Monica, California, Milly Gilbert... Oh, okay. Check out the Southern Sweethearts. Y'all looking good, ladies. If you say so, man. Okay, kids, leg up on the bar. And stretch towards the bar. And back to center. Excuse me, this is a beginners' class. Well, then I'm in luck, because I'm a beginner. I thought you were some big-time dancer. And you don't even know the fundamentals of ballet. I mean, I am a street dancer, but even though it's a little different, you're never too old to learn. Well, we're pretty far along in the session, and they already know all the positions, and more. I guess we're just going to have to see how much you know, and determine if you can continue. You guys want to see his moves? Yeah! Okay. All right, now, go easy on me. I'm a little rusty. Not bad. Not bad. Any critiques on his technique? Yes, Margot? He didn't do them in order. You are absolutely right. Why don't we show him the positions in order. Ready? Five, six, seven, eight. And first... second... fourth... and fifth. Good job. -Good job. Any other suggestions? He's not in proper attire. Look at those pants. -And his socks don't match. Okay, okay, we're not critiquing his fashion. We're critiquing his technique. His arabesque was terrible. Funny guy. Okay, leg up on arabesque. And straighten that knee. Arm out. And stretch. Stretch. How's that? Not terrible. Not terrible is good enough. You can relax now. All right, guys, that was a really good class, and I will see you all next weekend. -Bye, guys. Bye. So, those were some pretty, uh, interesting ballet moves. Are we going to see you again next weekend? I don't think so. I don't have tights. And I'm pretty sure Jacob will be a little upset if I show up without him. Oh, yes. Very true. He definitely keeps us looking our best. Mm, I see. I'd like to see you again, though. For a dance. Of course. Right. Yeah. They don't have dancing like that at pep rallies back where I'm from. Vegas. But you do ballet too. That's, like, totally different modes. Yeah, well, I mean, ballet doesn't really require a serious dance face, like the Sweethearts. Yes. Dance face. After all, you got to be in beast mode. -Totally in the zone. Well, look, I'm starting this crew, and I'd love for you to be in it. But I don't dance like you. Hey, that's perfect. I'm trying to do something new with this dance crew. Something that's never been done before. Ah. Everything has been done before. At least come to the first rehearsal. I actually think I still have the flier. Is the address the same? Yes. Huh. So you were actually listening to me. It's funny, because I really couldn't tell. Ah, ahem. Dance face. But Dee Dee also Googled you. Made us watch all of your videos. Mm, okay. See? I'm not a creep. I'm legit. So, when are the first rehearsals? Um... 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Nice. -Sounds good. For sure. All right, thank you guys all for coming. Just follow after me. Five, six, seven, and... Five, six, seven, and... Hey, hey. I think it'll help if you break down the combination into smaller sections. Maybe start with an eight count. Okay, um... I'm going to take it slow for you guys. Follow along. Five, six, seven, and step. And step. And step. And step. And bring it back. One, two. And pop-pop. Okay, okay. Now let's try some battling. Now, at any moment, an opponent from the opposite team can come up and challenge you, so you have to be ready. So then why don't you just step in? Or are you scared? -Hmm. - Get it, girl - Get it, get it, get it - Get it, girl - Get it Get it, girl Hey, I hate to be the Danny Downer here, but... How are you doing? Yeah, our studio time's almost up, so we got to get out of the way for the Zumba class, so... Okay, okay. All right, guys, thank you for coming again. I'll text you guys next week. Oh, yeah, you know, I have to check my kids' evening schedule. But we'll be in touch, okay? I'm not sure if I'll make next rehearsal, but I'll take the hip-hop aerobics in the gym, yeah? Yeah, it's not an aerobics class. It's supposed to be a dance crew. I'll see you in the lab, okay? -Mm-hmm. -Bye. That was a... that was a good first rehearsal. You call that a good first rehearsal? It wasn't that bad. It could have been so much worse. Like, you want my advice? But I feel like you're gonna give it to me anyway. You need to try to find a way to incorporate all the styles into one routine. Show them how to use their skills. -I thought I did that. -You need to try harder. They think it's a dance class. You need to motivate them to think like a team. Yes. Practice makes perfect. Are you trying to sound like my dad right now? Not really. Something my dad says to all of his students. Oh. Okay, sensei. Put your dance face on and you will be fine. Text me and let me know if rehearsals are on for next week. Will do. It wasn't... -Bye, guys. -Bye. It wasn't that bad. It was that bad. It wasn't that bad. Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Scott. Is there someplace you'd rather be? Mm-mm. Mm-mm. No, Mr. Schmidt. Good. I want to talk to you after class. Now, back to our regularly scheduled program of who gets meetings with the TAs prior to testing, and who is left out on a limb by themselves to freeze in the cold? Mr. Scott, you're starting to make me think I made a grave mistake in letting a freshman do such important research. Hm! Important research? All we do is make smoothies. I'm literally taking time away from class and life to make snacks. I'm sorry if you think eventually finding the cure for diabetes is a waste of your time. You have the honor of working on a groundbreaking study. Consumption of red raspberries and the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels. It's a catchy title, right? But it's really important. But I can always find another student willing to, uh... make smoothies, as you said. I didn't understand how important it was. Please don't give my position away. A promising student, but you need to work on your time management. I will. You won't regret giving me this opportunity. Ugh! Stupid. These are the best chicken fingers in the world. Mm-hmm. I love Cane's. Not only because of their food, but because they are the official sponsors of Levelz Dance battle tour. We're going to be traveling to four cities, challenging the best crews across the U.S. We're going to San Francisco, New York, our hometown, Vegas, and Baton Rouge, we're coming for you. If you manage to beat us... If you manage to beat us... ...you win $50,000 cash. But that's not going to happen, though. Never. You see? They're challenging me. I mean, why else would they come to Baton Rouge? Hey, I mean, Baton Rouge is a great city. It's got a mixture of urban and suburban. Good food. Just... okay, fine. We got to win this. Yeah. But right now we don't have a crew. One love, baby. Okay, guys, so our last rehearsal was... -Whack. -Pathetic. Poo. And whose fault was that? $50,000 is a lot of money. Yeah, with $50,000 I'm pretty sure I can forgive pretty much anyone. Well, then it's settled. Let's get to it. Routine 55. Five, six, seven, and... Yes. I'm not coming back. The grand prize is $50,000. Do I look like I need the money? Come on, this is the most fun you've had in years. That's an overstatement. Admit it, you like us. I like to dance. And you like us. You know, you're amusing. Just try again. Come on, you bring class to the group. -You mean I'm old. -No! No, I mean, it's not like you're 40. You just have this refined quality, and it just steps us up a notch, and you're beautiful. Please. We need her. You don't need me. Look, you're really good. Plus your steps are great for battles. Brandon, we finally got some data. Okay, I got to fit this in where I can. I have to prioritize my studies. You sound like my dad. No, I sound like mine. Same. So then why are you not Listen, Reika, I love science. But it doesn't have to be the only thing I do in my life. But doesn't it...? Five, six, seven, and... All right. Ha! Hey... All right, all right. Nice. That was-- -yeah, that was great. -It's coming together. Coming together? We're fire. Oh, yeah, we are.... we're fire. We are getting there. But we still need to practice battling. I mean, I beat Xavier the other day. Hey, say that again. Look, guys, we know each other's moves. We know each other's strengths and we know each other's weaknesses. So we go to battle some people we don't know. I know some folks. Uh-oh. I do. Our challengers have arrived. Whoo! The Super Fantastic Dynamic Princess Superhero President Team. You can't be serious. Oh, I'm as serious as a heart attack. Okay. Hey, Margot, ain't you supposed to be some prima ballerina? The name is Go-Go. Drop that beat. Oh. She's talking to you. You heard the lady. Hey, I'm not the sound guy, okay? Then why are you here? All right, teach these kids a lesson in manners. We got this. - Drop that bass - That bass - Drop, drop that bass - That bass - Drop that bass - That bass Drop, drop, drop that bass - Bass, bass - Drop that bass - Bass - Drop, drop that bass Bass, bass Come on, I could do that when I was a kid. Whoo! Okay! Oh! Let's go. Oh, get it. Hey, serve 'em up. Oh! Oh! -Hey, hey, hey! -Hey, hey, hey! Yeah, Mommy, Show them haters. You're cheering for the wrong team. I'm cheering for my mom. There's a difference. Oh! No! Whoo! Come on, now. Show 'em them feet. Oh! You got this. Come on. Oh! Hey! Hey! Hey! Calm down, okay? Keep it together. Wait, wait, wait. Y'all, we're losing to kids right now. Just pull up. Hey! Oh! Okay. Drop that bass Drop, drop, drop that bass You got this, yeah. Go ahead. Okay! Show me what you got, little man. Yeah, Jacob. Okay. Oh! Is that all you got? I thought you used to be famous. Oh. And I'm still the best. All Styles. Honey, remember, whether or not you win, you still get pizza, okay? I'm coming with y'all to get pizza. In my book, you guys totally won. I think so too. But it's all right if we didn't. Come on. Grow up. What? What? They're just kids. Ridiculous. You wanted to see me? Nice work on the analysis on that last batch of data. Thanks. I'm curious to see the final findings, though. Studying people with type 2 diabetes was a pretty good idea. What are your plans for the summer? Um, I had not really thought that far ahead. Children. Hmm? There's a summer program at Princeton, gives undergraduates hands-on experience with cancer research. I read your admissions essay. I thought that might be something you'd be interested in. Yeah. What do I have to do? It's an extensive application process. It includes an in-person interview here on campus, and an oral presentation. Sounds like an amazing opportunity. I know. It is. So get your act together and we'll go over your presentation in a couple weeks. Yeah! Yes. Thank you, Mr. Schmidt. Without the assistance of medication, patients reacted to raspberries with insulin levels decreasing at a rapid rate. You need to be more specific. Yeah, rapid rate isn't clear enough. Why aren't you discussing Professor Schmidt's research for your presentation? I just want to do something different. So you like to make your life hard. Basically. Well, I can help with your presentation if you want. No, I'm good. Has Nate been to all those places? Yeah, I guess so. Wow, that's amazing. I mean, I've only been to India. I've been to Kansas. Hey, if you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go? Iceland, specifically Kpavogur. You've clearly given this a lot of thought. Well, you got to map out your dreams. Well, you know, you could go to Iceland if you joined All Styles again. Why I mean, we're going to win this competition for $50,000. $50,000? Flights to Kpavogur right now are around $2,175. Okay, so you're in. So that was a really good rehearsal. You did better. -Come on, let's go. I'll see you later. What are you doing? Rehearsing. Rehearsing for...? The battle. I don't dance like you. I can't just get up there and battle. Hmm, so you're nervous? Maybe. You know what? I'm going to play a song. You just have fun, and I'll sit and watch. Don't be nervous. Didn't even really Want to go But if you get me out You get a show There's so many bodies On the floor Calm down. You got it. Are you down, d-d-down D Stop watching me. You're making me nervous.

I am Brandon, and this is Lark. I am Lark's friend. I'm Brandon. Lark's friend. Mr. Yonas is my father. Call me Dr. Yohannes. I'm sorry, Dr. Yohannes. Gotcha. Nice to meet you, Brandon. Call me Yonas. Nice to finally meet the young man who's taking up so much of my daughter's time. Dad! I'm just joking. Mr. Brandon, I'm looking forward to learning more about you... at dinner. Larky, let's head out. Guess you're coming over for dinner. I'm trying to help you. You know, we had picked this costume out for her, and she's like, "No, I want to go in my birthday suit." She was so cute. We turned around, and she had gone outside, butt-naked. -Oh, my gosh. Can I take your plate after that story? -Thank you, Mama. -You're welcome. Thank you. You're welcome. I'll get the tea. I haven't had a home-cooked meal like that in ages. Lark says you're quite the dancer. Yeah. Thanks, but not like Lark. She's amazing. Look at you, throwing out compliments. I mean it's not too often you grown up with a family of dancers. Family of doctors. I'm the black sheep for not majoring in medicine. Now, Larky, I keep telling you, you can do both. Look at me. Look at your father. -Here we go again. -Oh. Mom loves to tell the story about how she was dancing at Ailey and she pulled a tendon. That injury made her decide she wanted to become a surgeon, and blah, blah, blah. Now, Brandon, I tell the story with much more flair. And it lasts for hours. -Ooh. Stop teasing. So are you a dance major also? No, biochemistry. Oh, a man after my own heart. A scientist with rhythm. -Lark, he's a keeper. -Dad! Now, biochemists that can dance, you don't find that often. You really don't. -But my mom was a dancer too. I didn't know your mom was a dancer. Mm-hmm. She performed all around the world when I was little. She was perfectly healthy. And then, boom, cancer. I'm so sorry. It was crazy. It made me want to become a researcher, though. So I could work to find a cure. It sounds to me like you're doing a great job keeping your mother's legacy alive. Thank you. I'd like to keep dancing in the future. But right now, science is the goal. Dancing makes me a better surgeon, if you could believe that. It provides moments of pure freedom in which your body takes over and moves to its own natural beat. When I'm dancing, I don't have a care in the world. Me neither. You must be so sick of this. You have no idea. Well, I added some extra honey to this batch. Thank you. Hey, what time is your presentation? 5:00 p.m. What time is yours? It's right before. That's cutting it really close. We'll still make it. I mean, the competition's at 7:00. We're barely going to have any time to stretch or anything. We'll put our clothes in a bag and change in the bathroom. What if there's traffic? We can do it. Okay.

Your old man didn't go to college. I'm just taking it all in. I understand, but don't want to be late. Don't want to be late. You guys want something else? No, I'm good. Oh, amazing, sir. I don't know about all that. You didn't even taste it. Brandon's got to keep his strength up. Yeah, for the presentation. Yeah, that and he's got... He's what? What's going on? It's just... it's just that... I can't... I can't imagine some of the... mental energy it must require for the gymnastics that... mental gymnastics that Brandon has to go through. I myself have only taken a few humanities classes, and even then I can barely... I'm in a dance crew, Dad. It's called All Styles, and Nate is our... Manager. We're competing after my presentation. I thought you were done with all this. What's the difference? The difference is you lied to me. I didn't lie to you. I just didn't tell you. Brandon, don't give me your lip. You know, we'll just talk about this later. There's really nothing to talk about, Dad. You can't stop me from doing this. Oh, I can't? -You're just like your-- The time she spent away from us dancing, we will never get back. You mean the time she spent chasing her dreams. I'm, uh... I'm... yeah, I'm going to go get the check. Boy... Oh, yeah Oh, yeah, whoo Uh-huh, uh-huh Mm You can't stop What you can't see You can't hit What you can't reach Suckas can't hurt me That's why I stand up On the same feet - Sand-deep - Sliding around Standing on the concrete Can't stop me Might as well just watch me Losing is unlike me Never I'm not trying This is my moment This is my movie Making this magic Y'all cannot move me Turn up the volume Till there's no louder Turn down the lights Till I'm off-balance Showing my talents Playing through my talents Time to spring forward I can't move backwards, no I keep my head held high Float above all those Frowning faces Moving until I shine Feeling on top But I keep chasing Oh Feeling on top But I keep chasing Oh Won't stop Can't stop till I get it Two steps, one shot Never finish I've been on this For a minute So I deserve the life I'm living I don't know If you're living Hope it comes clearly Glad I'm on my behind All you haters Can D-I-E Greatest call me D-I-V Don't even need a C-I-D To know we usually Break the status Of the long night Needing no sleep Need a penthouse But ain't a grand thing No one has to be the boss Ain't a damn thing cheap You're definitely Moving faster Till I'm where I need to be And you know I won't stop Can't stop till I get it Two steps, one shot Never finish I've been on this For a minute Got one life Trying to live it Yeah, oh I keep my head held high Float above all those Frowning faces Moving until I shine Feeling on top But I keep chasing Oh Feeling on top But I keep chasing Oh I keep my head held high Float above all those Frowning faces Moving until I shine Feeling on top But I keep chasing Oh Feeling on top But I keep chasing Oh Through the study of these very complex reactions, we find that these chemicals processes, ranging from unassisted to prescription, must be in balance to maintain proper health. Thank you. Next up, we have Brandon Scott. Thank you guys so much for this opportunity. I'm going to be presenting on some groundbreaking research of the effects of the usage of Herceptin on HER2. Welcome to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, the last stop on the Levelz and Raising Cane's dance battle tour. Over the last month, Levelz have challenged crews in cities across the country, including New York, San Francisco and Las Vegas. So far, no one can stop them. In both tissues, the glucose enters by facilitated diffusion. A key difference is that only the liver tissue is available to synthesize glucose. The final stop on the tour brings us to Baton Rouge. Let's see if any local talent can beat Levelz for $50,000. Oh, where are those guys? Thank you guys so much for this opportunity Here we go again Hot damn, here we go again Hot damn, Here we go again Here we go. Give it up for Hot Steppers. Up next, we got Status. Yup. Oh, hey.
