Bring It On: Fight to the Finish (2009) - full transcript

Lina Cruz is a tough, sharp-witted Latina cheerleader from East L.A. who transfers to a posh, West Los Angeles high school after her widowed mother remarries a wealthy man and Lina not only finds herself a fish-out-of-her-environment at her new high school but she faces off against Avery, the snobbish and ultra-competitive all-star cheer-leading captain to qualify for a spot on her new school's cheer-leading team with the help of her new sheltered stepsister, Skylar, and her former teammates whom she calls up to help her.

We're gonna be real
Rough Riders in the building.

You know, I ain't stopping until our
high school squad is an All Star squad.

Are you all down? We've
got your back, Lina.

Yeah, girl, we tighter
than a new weave.

Go! Fight! Kill! I mean, win!

Where you going,
cheer-quitas?

The Spirit Championship.

That's where the baddest All
Star squads go to compete.

You don't look like
no All Stars, ma.

Well, we're not.
Yet. But we will be.

Then I guess you
ain't got one of these.



That's an All Star
bracelet. But...

Only the best of the best cheerleaders
win those. How did you get one?

How you think? You
probably stole it.

I know you did.

Whatever.

That's going on right
here. Come on, bring it.

Catalina!

No, mami!

Lina, what are you doing?

She married
the gabacho!

Stop! You're
ruining everything!

Stop!

What's going on here?

Cheer your little
barrio hearts out!



But Lina's coming to live with
me and my daughter in Malibu!

No!

It was just a dream.

It was just a bad dream.

Now the real nightmare begins.

Oh, whoa, whoa.

Let me help you
with that, Wife.

Thank you, Husband.

I know we sound silly, but I'll
never get tired of hearing it.

And I'll never get
tired of saying it.

I'm glad I skipped breakfast.

Lina, you don't have to
go to school today, honey.

Actually, yes, I do. It's
my last day in East LA,

and as captain, I need to
handle some squad business.

I can give you a
ride if you want.

Mmm-mmm. No. I'd rather walk.

Or get dragged by a bus.

Lina, be nice.

Look, I'm gonna be
late. I have to go.

All right. Bye.

Sorry. Oh. No, no,
no. Honey, listen,

you got to give her a
little time. She'll adjust.

Then we'll be one big happy
family. I promise. Okay?

I hate him. And his
daughter, she creeps me out.

She's like way too
Single White Female.

She's probably just mad excited
about having a new sister.

Treyvonetta, come on.
Sky is not my sister.

Not by cheer,
blood or marriage.

I feel you, Lina,
but for real though,

girl, you can't complain
about moving to Malibu.

You about to be living large.

Yeah, right.

Uh-oh. Love birds alert.

Wassup?

Trey and Lina are
here, okay? I got to go.

Come on, mija, you
know I love you.

As much as you love this car?

Hey,

at least she lets me get
under the hood. You don't.

Watch it, girl.

Oh! I will watch it.

You don't want none
of these Golden Gloves.

Get him, G.

Easy, Oscar de la Ha-Ha. And you'd
better not be late picking me up.

What did I tell you about bossing me around
in front of your girly girls like that?

At 4:30, Victor.

You can't tell me what to do.

I'm a man.

I'll be here at 4:15 to
pick up your little pom poms.

Hey, make sure you two watch over
my baby girl for me, all right?

Victor, go. We got this. Go.

In the Gloria-mobile.

This is so messed up, man!

I mean, now we're never gonna get
to be All Stars without you, Lina.

No, no, no. We're
going to be All Stars.

These quickie marriages,
they never last. I'll be back.

Okay, so if you're so
sure you're gonna be back,

then why don't you just
come and stay with me?

Because my mom thinks that
going to school in Malibu

is the best thing that
ever happened to me.

She's like, "You'll get a better education.
It's safe. I won't have to worry."

Seriously, what is
there to worry about?

Besides, this is the first year
our squad is actually tight enough

to become real All Stars.

That's what I'm talking about.

Show everyone we're for real.

See, that's what
I'm talking about.

I want you to be
captain while I'm gone.

Mmm-hmm. Me?
Captain? Yeah. Why?

Because, besides me, like, you
have the most cheer experience.

That is true, G.

You probably came out the
womb like this, "Give me a..."

That looks like me.

But I don't do captain, all
right? I hate being in charge, man.

Whatever, you the one that got Victor
wrapped around your baby finger.

Yeah. I think
you can handle it.

That's because I've got
something Victor wants.

But he ain't gonna get it.

He ain't gonna get it!

Okay, you guys, the new beginning
until the ripple goes like this.

We're gonna change it now. It
starts with the same arm, same leg.

It goes one, two, three,
four. Girls go back on five.

Hit six, six, seven
then eight. Ripple style.

Yeah, let's try that
with the music. Ready?

Five, six, seven, eight. Go one,
two, three, four. Go back, six...

This is a cheer-wreck.

Yeah, our girl is
dying over there.

I feel like a witness
to a cheer-icide.

You think she'll
get better? Hell no.

Really!

Listen, you all need
to drop the attitude,

because while I'm gone,
Gloria is gonna be the captain.

Okay, it's like that, huh?

That's not very captain-like.

Oh! I'm sorry. My bad.

Look, if we want to be All Stars, then
we need to practice like All Stars. Okay?

Now let's do this. Line up.

Yeah, okay. Keep it loose.

Oh! This ought to be good.
Charmaine, don't forget,

pop on six, not seven.

Five, six, seven,
eight. Music.

Right. Okay.

Remember, All Stars,
that's what we want.

Yes. Yes.

All right. Pick it up.

Okay, this is tight.
This is tight, ladies.

Now, out!

In you go, hard.

That was hot. Go.

Bring it in.

Come on.

East LA! East LA!
East LA! East LA!

East LA! East LA!
East LA! East LA!

In your face.

But they couldn't do
that five minutes ago.

What's this? Just
a little something

so you won't forget us.

Come on, guys, I can't forget
you. You're my cheer sisters.

I miss you guys already.

Come back soon, you
know, Lina. Real soon.

Catalina, mi amor, mi
amor. It's time to go.

East Los. Forever.

Don't forget us,
Lina. We love you.

So, how many
families live here?

One. But it just
doubled in size.

Now, listen, I want you both to feel really
comfortable here. Mi casa es su casa.

Thanks, Enrique.

Come on, that's not how
Henry pronounces his name.

It's okay. She can call
me whatever she wants.

Really? Well how about...

Only if you can
say it in church.

Well that's really gonna
limit my vocabulary.

Wow!

This is my room?

I don't think I
belong here, you guys.

Oh...

Oh. No. Now that's bootleg.

How are they gonna have a broken
toilet right next to a new one?

It's not a toilet,
Lina. It's a bidet.

A... What?

A bidet.

You use it to wash your...

No, no, no.

That's nasty. How...

I don't even drink out of a public
fountain. You expect me to use that?

Oh! I told Dad you were funny.

Thanks, Sky, but your
dad doesn't know me.

He doesn't really even
know my mother, either.

Maybe, but I don't
think it really matters.

He said with Isabel, it
was love at first sight.

You mean first he saw her culata.
And then he saw her tetas.

What?

Nothing.

Anyway, we're sisters now. I
have always wanted a sister.

It's gonna to take more than a marriage
license to be considered sisters.

Yeah, I know that.

Even the Brady
Bunch had issues.

Right.

Anyway, I'm supposed to
tell you dinner's ready.

You know what, I'm good. I'm actually
kind of tired. It's been a long day.

Okay.

Unfortunately.

Remember, work on the sync
in the table top combination

and make sure that Trey
sticks her full back.

Yeah, okay. No problem.

Hey, what's it like there?

Lifestyles of the
Rich and Annoying.

You have to see this!

This girl's room is
like a cheer-seum.

Her mother won
championships three times!

Wow! Oye, guey, that girl must
have cheerleading in her blood.

From what I've seen, I think
it skipped a generation.

Looking for me?
Girl, I got to go.

Is this you and your mom?

Yeah. Wow.

She must have been an
amazing cheerleader.

Don't! I really don't like
people touching her stuff.

Sorry. It's fine.

It's no problem. Here.

Okay. Come on.

You don't want to be late
for your first day of school.

Right, because being the
new kid is so much fun.

Yeah. So the pool and the
stadium are over there.

And you can get vegan
or sushi for lunch.

And...

Oh.

That's the Tai Chi class, which
doesn't count for PE credit.

Go figure.

Who are they?

Malibu Jaguars.

All Star squad.

They belong to the cheerleading
gym across the street,

but unfortunately some
of them go to school here.

The Jaguars? They won the
Spirit Championship last year.

Avery's the captain.

Now, she's a hater.
A Sea Lion hater.

Why?

She used to be one of us but we
didn't vote her captain, so she quit.

She took all of our best
cheerleaders with her.

Hey, you just can't
just walk up to them.

Watch me.

Avery?

The Jaguars were sick last
year at the Spirit Championship.

I'm sorry, no
autographs today.

No, look, look, I'm not
a groupie. I'm Catalina.

My East LA squad is like this
close to becoming All Stars, too.

Wow! And I'm like
this close to caring.

I bet you'll care when we take that
bracelet away from you this year.

Cute.

But then you'd
have to beat us.

And that's just not happening.

Like her outfit.

Was I talking to you?

Excuse me.

No, no, no. No time
for cat fights, Kayla.

As a matter of fact, Cat,

why don't you go back to
East LA? Just go south,

and when you start to
smell poverty, you're home.

Excuse me, but, Lina,
she lives here now.

Wait. Your mother's that Mexican
maid who married Sky's daddy.

She doesn't look Mexican.

For your information,
we're Cuban-American.

Fascinating.

And my mother was a waitress.

A maid with tips.

You know, y'all are lucky that my girls are
not here, because if they were here, we...

You know what, save
the urban drama, Cat.

After all, you're
the lucky one.

I mean, you got to meet
real All Stars today.

They give Malibu-Americans
a bad name.

And guess what. Game
over. We won by two.

Oh! That's gross.

I'm sorry. And you are?

Lina. Who are you?

I'm surprised you
have to ask. I'm Evan.

Well, Evan, you have a booger.

Uh...

Hi.

So, we just figured
out your style.

So are these old clothes? Are
they supposed to be vintage?

No, more like
homeless couture.

Look, I don't care what
you label whores think.

Where I'm from, this is tight.

But you're here now,

and you kind of stand
out like bad teeth.

Look, if you guys want
to take this outside,

we can do this.

Hold up, jalapeno.

Yeah, Cat. You know, it's one
thing to be a fashion don't,

but unless you want them to
give you a permanent facial,

don't threaten me.

You must be Lina.

Yeah, and who are you?

I'm Sky's friend, Christina.
Yeah, we're on the squad together.

You're a cheerleader?

Go Sea Lions.

Look, no offense, but you sound
like you've had a cheer-botomy.

How come people always say "No
offense" right before they offend you?

Look, it's been a...

No offense, Lina, but
you're just like them.

Hey, Lina.

Tell me you guys nailed the Liberty
combination! We have to hit every stunt.

Lina, Hold on. Victor,
enough with the up and down.

You really want to see my
up and down? Okay, babe.

Girl, we got a problem.

No. Don't tell me that, Gloria.
Step up! Make them practice harder.

I did, but...

Motivate them! Inspire them!

There's nobody left to inspire,
all right? Everybody quit.

I mean, of course,
except Trey.

My team quit? Why?

Because. Lina, I'm not you.

All right? And they
don't think that

I can make them All Stars, and
honestly, neither do I. I'm sorry.

It's okay. I know
you... I know you tried.

I really did.

But, hey, it's not all bad, you know.
You still get to be Princess Lina.

Living in Malibu.

Jaguars!

It ain't all good
here, mi hermana.

Look, I got to
bounce. My bus is here.

She just hung up.

Sorry about your team.

I'll deal with it later.

Sure.

But if you wanna keep up your skills until
then, we have a spot on the Sea Lions.

Are you serious?

My squad ain't even cold yet and
you're already cheer-jocking me?

You're right.

I'm so sorry. I...

Why did you say that to Sky?

Why? It's not like
she's my real sister.

At least in East
LA I had family.

You have family
here now, too, Lina.

And Sky's been through
so much already.

How would you feel
if you lost me?

All right, I guess
I'll try to be nicer.

You're gonna do a
lot more than try.

You're gonna be
joining the Sea Lions.

Trying out, huh?

No, just checking things out.

That's cool.

You know, they kind of
suck after my sister quit.

No. You're Avery's brother?

Not in her fan club, huh?

I'm starting my own club. It's called
the League of Avery Can Kiss My Butt.

Yeah? Well, you won't
be the only member.

You know, every pretty girl
doesn't have to be a cheerleader.

I mean, the stuff they
do is way hard anyway.

It's not that hard.

Oh. No?

Okay, that's easy for a
non-cheerleader to say.

Okay.

So what's your
thing? You play ball?

Maybe. Think you can step?

Here, take a shot. Really.

No, no, no, really
this time. Go ahead.

Okay. Go ahead. Right there.

I'm so sorry.

Sorry, coach.

You think I'm a
klutz, don't you?

Maybe a little.

Come here.

This is how you shoot.

That's it.

It's perfect.

Peep this.

Okay.

Lina! Hey, you came!

Good news. You made the team.

Let's face it,
she is the team.

And we voted you team captain.

But you're captain.

Yeah. By default, and I suck.

But you are really good.

Yeah.

You could fix us.

You know, I thought
I can do this, but no.

Come on. Come on.

Use your powers for good.

I mean, we do cheer at,
like, all of Evan's games.

Yeah.

So? I don't care about him.

Right.

We'll pretend like
we believe that.

Please, Lina, we will work really hard.
Because we could be really good. I promise.

I'd settle for upright.

Good luck with that.

We still have to
fill another spot.

You could fill it with whoever you want
to. It could be somebody good. I just...

Yeah? Like who?

You swear to help me out?

I will do whatever it takes.

Okay, I'm in.

Yes? Can I help you?

Lina!

Meet the newest
member of our squad.

Go, Sea Crabs! Sea Lions.

You said to make
more of an effort.

Oye, guey, you got
one smoking casa!

Thank you.

Okay. Henry's kindness is no excuse
for you to take advantage of him, Lina!

Not even a little?

Gloria, tu mama, she must
be worried about you.

I almost forgot.

She's got to go to work, but she'll
call you in the morning to thank you.

I have a boyfriend.

Mama thinks this is like putting me
in the Virginity Protection Program.

You do realize that there's
a waiting list at MV, right?

Dad, can't you, like,
dialog with the principal?

Dialog? Please tell me you're
not teaching her hood talk.

Come on, Dad. Strings
get pulled all the time.

George Bush got
into Yale, didn't he?

Come on. No
cheerleader left behind.

Please, Daddy? Please.

She used the "Daddy"
card. She's good.

All right.

Thank you. Thank you.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Are those the Mountain Lions?

It's the Sea Lions. And
no, those are the Jaguars.

No. That was a
big bowl of wrong!

Yeah.

Looks like Dora the
Explorer has a new pal.

Seriously, Cat,
you're like a stalker.

Don't you have anything else,
I don't know, better to do?

Better than watching you sweat
off a spray tan? Yes, I do.

As a matter of fact, I'm
going to Sea Lion practice.

They voted me captain.

And you're bragging about
it. What a cheer-barrassment.

Don't act like you didn't want to be
the captain of the Sea Lions, Avery.

That was way back when
I was into charity.

I'm so over that.

Over.

You're a big muscular girl.

Are you gonna practice
with the Sea Lions, too?

Or just bench press them?

Wait, wait, wait.
She said you have

grande muscles.
Strong like bull.

Oh...

I'm bilingual. Right?
I speak bitch, too.

You got them right, man.
Cheer-brujas. Mean and bony.

Better than fat. Let's go.

You know... In a sec.

But your girls, they're
coming in too early.

They need to hold
on one, and then...

Right. Now train your
little Sea Lions to do that.

Then maybe I'll be impressed.

I'd rather be a Sea Lion,
if this is the best you got.

So, Cat, I'm guessing your little amiga
hasn't seen the rest of the pod squad yet.

Has she?

They're really good. Really.

Really good.

Your Sea Otters
got skills, right?

They have potential.

Really? Where do they keep it?

Why is that girl dancing
with her tongue out?

She said it helps
her concentrate.

I used to have a dog who did
that. He couldn't cheer either.

Okay. All right, I know it's bad, but,
Christina, she's got tumbling skills

and Sky has spirit.

And don't forget her mom
won, like, every award.

Like, deep down, she's got
cheerleading in her gut!

Too bad it's not in
her brain or muscles.

We've got some work to do.

Yeah.

Six, seven, eight.

One, two, three...
Load it out.

Load it out.

...four, five,
six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four.

High knees. High knees.

Six. You ain't cute.

One, two, three,
four, five, six.

Hey! Hey.

Four, five, six. One.

Are you okay?

You all right, man?

I'd rather eat
underwear and die.

Sweaty, day-old,
butt-wedgie underwear.

Whitney, come back!

She was one of our best dancers. I
mean, I know that's not saying much,

but what are we
supposed to do now?

I've got an idea.

In the house!

This is nice! You all
should go on Cribs.

Hey, I'm Treyvonetta.

Girl, how many
bedrooms you all got?

Six bedrooms and
seven and a half baths.

We can each have
own our own suite.

Nice! Sweet!

I'll show you a tour.

Okay, Gloria, Trey and I are
gonna break it down for you. Okay?

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three and four.
Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three and four.
Five, six, seven, eight.

One and two, three and four.
Five, six and roll it out.

One, two, three and give it.

I feel so white.

Me, too. Like
Clay Aiken white.

Okay, okay. Come on, get up.

You know, rhythm has no color.
You know, just shake and jive.

Gonna have some fun.
That's right! Come on.

Shake what your mama gave you.

I mean, we just could keep the old
routine until, like, after the game.

Or until we graduate.

Look, you want this school
to respect you, right?

Yeah. Yeah.

Then you need to
respect yourselves.

Which means you need to
improve on your skills.

That's right. So let's
drop it like it's hot.

Hit it, girl. Take notes.

Yeah. Is there an easier version
that's maybe, like, lukewarm?

Sky, this is the easy version.

Now, come on, Sea Lions.

You can do this.
That's right, come on.

All right. Get into formation.

Gloria, look who's here.

Victor!

Victor!

You came all the way
out here to see me.

You're my chulita.

I'd follow you anywhere.

That's sweet.

Can you spot me
a twenty for gas?

No!

Damn!

Yo, who's this?

I'm Sky. It's a
pleasure to meet you.

So you're Lina's sister
from another mister.

I haven't thought of it like
that. No, no. Not really.

Hey, Lina. Who is that dude
over there checking you out?

Oh!

Go ahead, Lina.

That boy's finer
than baby hair.

Whatever. He's just some guy.

Yeah, right. Evan's, like,
the most popular guy in school.

Please. I'm not impressed.

Lina, if Malibu
Ken is sweating you,

I can put that fool
in check, real quick.

Look at this guy.
Look at this guy.

Go get him,
papi. You go!

Do that.

What's happening?

He's a mess.

What's up, bro?

Dude, is that your ride?

Yeah, foo, cherried-out,
top of the line hydraulics.

What do you know
about that, beach boy?

She's a head turner.

All right. Check this out.

I hope he doesn't
scare him too much.

He'll be good.

He's supposed to scare
him, not be all lovey-dovey.

What?

She's pimped to the max.

Thanks, man.

You know, that's tight you
know how we roll in East Los.

I'm Victor.

Evan.

What... They look like
they're about to hug.

They're hugging.

Dude, that's what happens when you send
a Chihuahua to do the job of a pit bull.

So, what's up, Evan? You
trying to push up on Lina?

Dude, I'm trying.

But I swear, every time I step
to her, I say something stupid.

So, I don't know
how well it's going.

Bro, you just got to know
how to handle these chicas.

You got to be in
charge, homie. Yeah.

They love that. Come on, man.
I'll show you how it's done.

Come on. Come on, man.

Wait, wait, wait. Why
are they coming over here?

Wait. Quick, quick,
quick. Lip check.

Lip Smacker. Here.

Perfect. Watermelon.

Thanks.

Gloria... Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Let's roll out. Evan here
wants to holla' at your girl.

Okay. Are you cool?

Yes, whatever.

Okay. We'll wait
for you in the car.

Mmm-hmm.

Quit staring. Come on.

See, that's how you do it.

Come on.

So... So...

We should hang out.

Yeah, right.

Your sister would freak out if
she saw us hanging out together.

Come on. Let her
freak. It's nothing new.

Okay. Yeah?

Maybe. I'll think about it.

Okay. I'll see you
at the game tomorrow.

Yes, you will.

Get up, get up, quick.
Give me your hand.

They're even worse than
they were before. I love it.

I knew this would be worth
being late for practice.

Let's put them out
of their misery.

Jaguars.

We can't just walk out.

Hell, no.

Come on.

Jaguars! Jaguars!

If you want to win, yell with all your
might! When we say "Go," you say "Fight!"

Go! Fight!

Go! Fight!

Malibu Vista!

This is Sea Lion territory.

Don't ever shake your conceited
Jag butt over here again.

Excuse me. Then who's supposed to show
our school what a real squad looks like?

Not this mariachi band.

You're so lucky I found Jesus.

Hey, hey, hey. Okay?
I didn't use my hands.

All right. But you can't
fight girls like this.

They press charges. Right.

Run away.

Jaguars.

Emergency practice session?

Yes. As long as it takes.

Lina. Look, I'm
sorry about my sister.

She's... Forgotten.

Okay. Works for me.

Why is your brother talking
to Miss Chiquita Banana?

He's always dating down.
But don't you worry.

I'll fix it.

You know, I need to take
care of some team stuff.

Yeah.

I would, too, if my team
got spanked like that. I'd...

I mean, I'll just
catch up with you later.

Okay. I see the little wheels
turning in your evil little head.

What you thinking?

That we're outnumbered
and unarmed.

If we were surrounded by all these
people back home, what would we do?

Pretend to no
habla ingles?

Use our white voices?

No.

Call for backup.

Honestly, I was gonna say run.

But let's do that.

Guys, I know exactly
what we need to do.

Lina, I don't think
this was a good idea.

How do they move
their bodies like that?

Don't be scared, Sky. Look,
I got you looking good.

This is impromptu flavor
school for you guys.

We're about to
loosen you guys up.

What do you mean?

You'll see.

What's wrong now?

Nothing. I just
realized something.

I just realized Lina
already has two sisters.

She doesn't need me.

Come on, you're being so
Betty Buzzkill right now.

I know you better than anyone else and it
seems to me like you both need each other.

I have homework.
I should go home.

Sky?

Man, you look hot.
Dance with me, chulita.

Okay.

Christina?

I have a 4.0 GPA. Leave
me alone, Betty Buzzkill.

Yeah.

Yeah, baby.

Sky, want to dance?

No, thanks.

Come on. No, I'm good.

You know you want to.

No, I'm good right
here. Thank you.

Sky!

Sky, come on. Let's go.

Sky's in the house.

Come on, girl. Don't be
scared. Shake it. Yeah.

Come on, make us proud, Sky.

Look at those hips.

All right.

Lina.

You know, it's
called stalking, Evan.

Yeah?

Let me guess. Your new friend
Victor told you I'd be here.

Yeah, maybe.

You know, but I cannot believe you didn't
invite me to your little party yourself.

I mean, especially after I told
everyone how much I like you.

It's just rude.

You did not.

No, but I will.

Are you always this corny?

You just make me nervous.

Me? Yeah.

Why? You're Mr. Popularity.

Come on.

That's what those other kids see me
as. But you don't. And I dig that.

Christina, why can't
we be more like them?

Because we took
a purity pledge.

But that doesn't mean we can't be
more cool and hot like they are.

I guess.

Uh-oh.

Yo, what you looking at?

Who, me?

Nothing. Are you
calling my girl nothing?

I saw the way you
was looking at her.

What way? There was a way?

No, there's no way.
I was just looking.

So you admit you
was looking at me.

All right, I'm gonna show
you something to look at.

Wait. You want to fight
me because I looked at you?

What, did you think you could just
look at my girl and get away with it?

Uh-uh. We don't
play that here.

Christina, do something.

Lina! Lina! Help!

They're gonna kill Sky!

Wait, hold up. Wait,
what's the problem?

I don't know. I mean, I
was just looking at her.

And then she came
down the stairs and...

No! Why, Sky?

Sky, you just can't
be looking at people.

I mean, the last girl that
looked at me needed stitches.

Yo, what's up with your girl,
Lina? Staring like she loco.

You know the deal.

Yeah, I do, but she don't.

She's from Malibu.

Like, people over there just be looking
at each other for no reason. All the time.

Let me talk to her and explain
it. She'll be straight. Okay?

Fine. We didn't come
here to fight, no way.

Will somebody tell
me what just happened.

Sky, you can't just be looking
at people any kind of way.

Like, you can glance at somebody
and smile. But if you stare at them

or you give them one of these.

Or one of these.

That's disrespectful.

And your ass.

You understand, chica?

Yeah. I think so.

Good, next time we bring you to
East LA, bring your sunglasses.

Yeah. Big ones.

All right, come, honey.

It's all good.
Everything okay?

Yeah, come on.

Five, six, seven, eight. Two.

Five, six, seven, eight. Two.

What's wrong with me?

Two, four.

God...

I suck. Great.

Okay. One...

Hold your chest up.

What's the use?

I'm nothing like my mother.

Sky, look, I'm sure
that's not true.

Because as much as I hate to
admit it, I'm a lot like my mom.

I'm opinionated, stubborn...

Loud.

Yeah, that, too.

Which means you have to have
a part of your mom in you.

You really think so?

Yeah, I really do.

Well, would you
help me find her?

Yeah.

Ready? Five, six, seven,
eight. One, two, three, four.

Keep your chest up. Seven, eight.
One, two, three and sit in it.

Five, six, seven, clap.

That's what I'm
talking about. It's fun.

Here we go! Malibu Vista on the
move. Taking all you fools to school.

We're caliente. You
know, hot, hot, hot.

We always stay on top. We make
you sweat 'cause we run faster.

Try to catch up
and we say hasta.

Sea Lions! Sea Lions!
Sea Lions! Sea Lions!

Sea Lions! Sea Lions!

Oh, my God. That was fun.

Someone just
had a cheer-gasm.

What? No! You guys are crazy.

Don't front, Lina.

She don't need to. She's already
got Evan's nose wide open.

Whatever. You know.
For real, though.

That boy's nose is so open you could
drive a truck up those nostrils.

What's this?
It's a shoe-vite.

I'm having a RDD party and
I want you guys to come.

Look, Avery isn't in charge of the
social order at Malibu Vista. I am.

And despite the little debacle
at the game the other day,

everyone can see that Lina is
making the Sea Lions fabulente!

Everybody is talking
about it. So...

See you there? And,
please, dress to excess!

Okay, so I'm gonna need two
of these, then. Thank you.

I need a right and
a left. Perfect.

Thanks.

New shoes. Oh, my gosh.

Sweet! Okay, we've just been
jumped into the Rodeo Drive Divas.

Uh-uh. Hold up. Mama said
I can't be in no gang.

No, it's not a gang. I mean,
well, not really anyway.

But they are the most
exclusive clique at MV.

I mean, their
parties are legendary.

Look, you've got it
twisted. We're cheerleaders.

They'll be lucky if
we come to their party.

Thank you. She's right.

I mean, cheerleaders are supposed to
be at the top of the social food chain.

I wish we could go.

I mean, I would give
my best toe-touch

if I could party
with the RDDs.

Well, I didn't say we're not
going. I mean, we're cheerleaders,

and we are the party.
Is that right, Sea Lions?

Sea Lions! Sea Lions!

Sea Lions! Sea Lions!

You look so
pretty, mami.

I do?

Yeah, you do.

Baby.

Hey, I cannot believe that you let
Evan drive. That was so sweet, papi.

Only 'cause he loves
cars as much as me.

But you love me more.

Of course, mija.

Victor, let's go
walk on the beach.

Why?

'Cause it's romantic.

Getting sand in your
shoes, that ain't romantic.

That's why you'll
never get none.

Let's go, then.

Okay.

So, I got invited to
that Divas party, too.

You want to go together?

Evan, if we go together,
people are gonna talk.

I already know what people are
saying. I don't care, really.

Wait, wait. What
have you heard?

No, let me guess.

Your sister who told you I'm some
puta chasing after a rich white boy.

Don't get caught up in
Avery's drama, please.

No. You don't get it.

No, you don't get my sister.

She has to
dominate everything.

For instance, when she
didn't get Sea Lion captain,

she cried for three days.

For real? Yeah.

So, I guess when Avery's mean to you,
it means she sees you as a threat.

Well, thanks for
telling me that.

Then go to the party with me.

Only if you
practice your salsa.

What?

I thought I had a
pretty decent salsa.

No.

So, I'm not the best dancer.

But I hope you think
I'm better at this.

Okay, so... Okay.

That totally spoiled
the mood, huh?

Yeah.

Last one to the ocean.

I'll beat you.

No, you won't.

What is she doing?

Nice salsa hips, sea monkey.

Yeah, you should go on
Dancing With the Tards.

Don't run away.

Mess with my squad and you mess
with me, Avery. Leave Sky alone.

Gladly, if you'll
leave my brother alone.

Your brother and
I like each other.

Sky wants nothing
to do with you.

The feeling is mutual.

Avery, the United
Nations is boring me.

Anyway, we have
All Star practice.

Unlike you. Bye.

Kick rocks.

You know, they're not gonna stop until
somebody puts a foot up their spanks.

Bump it. I'll do the time.

Wait, wait, wait.

I got an idea.

Put cream depilatories
in their hair conditioner?

No, let's take
them on for real.

At the All Star Championship.

I like that. That works. Come
on, girl, smile. Don't be nervous.

You know what we could
do? We could do a...

Yeah, but...

Look, the only way we're going to shut
Avery up is if we beat her on her own turf.

And the only way to do
that is to become All Stars.

You mean, we won't
be Sea Lions anymore?

No, we'll still
cheer for the school,

but we're gonna have to
double up our practices

to be ready for the
Spirit Championship.

Hey! Hey, wouldn't it be worth
it if it'll crush the Jags?

She's right. I mean, I secretly plot
their demise like a comic book villain,

and that's not healthy.

Lina's way is better.

But don't we need
a gym to sponsor us?

Let me worry about that.

All I want to know is
if you guys are down,

because we need to take
this to the next level.

Yeah! And then cut the
brakes on those Jags,

and watch them
crash and burn...

Okay, minus the crazy part,
that's exactly the spirit we need.

So do you guys feel
it? Who wants to win?

Yeah! Sea Lions!

What about it, Sky?
What do you think?

I think

it's time to bring it.

Like, pick up. Like,
pick up. Like...

Avery speaking.
Aren't you lucky?

Guess what Tila Tequila and
her Sea Lions are up to now.

Kayla, Tila
Tequila isn't Latin.

But tequila's Mexican, right?

Yeah, but she's like, Asiany.

Whatever.

Anyway, word on the blog is
they're becoming an All Star team.

Get out.

And there's more.

They're going to compete
in the Spirit Championship.

Hello?

Yeah. Wait,

you're not sweating
those wannabes, are you?

Of course not. They're just a
joke. Look, I'll see you tomorrow.

One last thing.

My sources tell me that Evan
is taking little Lina Lambada

to the RDD party.

You asked Cat
to the RDD party?

Let it go, Avery.

Evan, she's a
freaking Sea Lion.

So now the truth comes out. It
was never about her mother, was it?

Look, Evan, you're a nice guy,
which is why you're blind and stupid.

Now that the little Sea Lions
think that they're All Stars,

Cat's just using
you to psych me out.

But, I've seen them practice.

You might want to go back on
your meds, because your Jags,

they have some
serious competition.

Not in my worst cheer-mare.

Well, well, looks like you ladies better
get ready for the championship, huh?

The thought of the Sea Lions in the
Spirit Championships makes me ill.

Kayla, honey, that's
sushi, not an Oreo.

Ahi helps me think.

About what?

I have a friend who's been on
the MV waiting list for months.

So?

So I wonder, how did those Sea Lion
ringers get approved so quickly?

Well, I thought it was
obvious. Pure talent.

Evan, go away.

Okay, bye.

Someone snuck them in.

OMFG!

Kayla, they're
illegal cheer-migrants.

Evan is really
good. Yeah, he knows.

So, I'll pick you
up tomorrow, okay?

Okay. Is it cool if Sky rolls
with us? She doesn't have a date.

Yeah. Of course it's cool.

I feel like Cinderella.

Yeah, me, too.

I mean, the guy, the
guy... You know, Charming?

Yeah, that guy, yeah.

So, tomorrow.

Okay, see you.

Perfect.

All right, guys, you ready?

Let's do this.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Bring it up. And
roll it around.

What?

Sky, what's wrong? Why is you
dad talking to the principal?

All right, but I
want to be the one...

I don't know.

What's wrong?

Gloria, Treyvonetta, you
need to come with me, please.

Henry, what's wrong?

Look, there's no easy
way to say this, Lina.

The Board has revoked their transfer
approval effective immediately.

That's not fair. If anyone
should be punished, it's us.

Look, girls, if there was anything
I could do, you know I would've.

Now, you know I would've.

I'm sorry, but...

Let's just go, girls.

Peace. Out, you all.

Take care.

Lina!

You jealous bitch.
You ratted us out.

It's a good thing you can't touch
me, because you could be expelled

just like your
little home girls.

Don't blame Avery for
getting them deported.

One more word from you, and I
will herkie you in the throat.

You forgot you can't reach me.

It's okay, Kayla. I'll gladly take the
credit for clubbing those baby seals.

Hey, Cheer-ella De Vil,
there's a big difference

between seals and
sea lions, you know.

Hey, goofazon. I don't care. Post it for
your BFF on your fungus-filled Facebook page.

You are seriously trying to
catch an All Star beat down.

It's okay, Lina. Calm down.

It's not worth it.

Let's go say goodbye
to our friends.

And say bye-bye to the Spirit
Championships while you're at it.

Bye-bye.

Bye, losers.

Hey! What are you
doing out here?

You have to get
ready for the party.

I'm not going. It doesn't
feel right without my girls.

They should be
here. It's not fair.

No, it's not,

but look at it this way.

Do you think they would want
you sitting here feeling sad

and miss out on your
first real date with Evan?

I don't know.

Come on, you know
what they would say.

And I can hear
Gloria and Trey now,

"Mami, you better handle that
double dip of vanilla caliente!"

"Shoot, 'cause if you don't,
I'm a push up on you, girl.

"Real talk. "

Okay.

Okay, that was so scary.

All right, I'll go, as long as
you promise to never do that again.

Okay. And to never
wear that again. What...

You need a fashion intervention. Let's
get to work on this. What is this?

Mami! Come on.

Up.

Wow. It doesn't
even look like me.

It looks like... Your
mom. I noticed that, too.

Okay. Got it?

It's so curly.

You look cute. Don't worry.

Wait. I almost forgot.

Here. I want you to have this.

My mom's team gave it to her.

She was a really
good captain, too.

Sky, I can't take this.

No, no, no, no. She'd
want you to have it.

She would've really liked you.

It'll look really nice
with my outfit tonight.

Oh, my God. What?

I got to get ready.

Okay, go, go, go.

Whoa!

Yeah.

You look amazing. Thanks.

To be honest, I think
that every time I see you.

Too corny?

Yeah. But I like it.

Sorry, but if I don't start dancing soon,
then these heels are so not worth it.

Okay, let's go.

No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.

We've gotta take a picture.

Catalina.

All right.

Get in there, now,
okay. Close, now.

Now, say, "I'm with stupid!"

I'm with stupid!

Perfect. Okay.

Bye, honey.

Have fun. You look great.

Drive carefully.

Bye, Mommy. Adios. Bye.

Hi.

Christina, you look hot.

Just hot? Because I
was going for sizzling.

Mmm-hmm.

Definitely sizzling.

Thanks, but... That was
definitely not sanitary.

Trey? How are you?

Hey, baby.

Sky, you did this?

Yes, I wanted to surprise you.

How are you? Good to see you.

What's up, Evan?

Wait. This is my
song. Shall we?

Look at her.

She acts like she
owns this world.

She'll never be like us.

Oh, oh!

Like mother, like daughter.

Shut up, Avery. You shut up.

Ignore her.

Hey, you okay?

I can handle her.

Oh!

I'm sorry. Is there a waiting
list for this spot, too?

Look around, Cat.
You don't belong here.

First your mother. And now
your little ghetto friends.

I'm sorry, but I don't think
you're going to be happy

until there's drive-bys and
chickens in the front yard!

Go back to the barrio,
where you belong!

Go.

Go, bye.

Peace out!

What, Evan?

No, let Evan talk to her.

I don't know what to do.

It's okay.
Ear-muffs! Ear-muffs!

Come on. Let me give her
just one good left hook.

Lina, wait! Come on.

Leave me a glass
slipper or something.

It's not funny, Evan.

Okay, okay. I'm sorry.

Listen, what Avery did back
there was pure evil. I know.

You know, she's the reason my
friends got kicked out of school.

Oh, my God.

What? You saw what
she did back there.

I'm not defending her, okay?
But they did break a rule.

And? Rules get
broken all the time.

But, come on, that
doesn't make it right.

Of course you'd
be on Avery's side.

Come on.

What? Did you
narc them out, too?

How can you say that?

You know, I guess I'm just
another chica gone loca, right?

You know how wild and
hot-blooded we are!

Now you do sound crazy.

Then leave me alone,
Evan. We're done.

Really?

I mean it.

Lina...

Wait, wait, wait.

G, yo, come pick me up.

What? Take me back to East LA.

I'm staying with you.

No, Lina. You can't leave.

Why? What... The
Spirit Championship?

The Sea Lions will be
fine without me, okay?

All you have to do is find
another chica from East LA.

You know it's not like that.

Look, we're sisters.

I'm your hermana, too.

Avery's right. I
don't belong here.

I'm sorry, Sky, I can't
be your captain anymore.

It's yours.

Lina, yo, we want you back, but
you cannot desert the Sea Lions.

We all worked too
hard to make them good.

They'll be fine.

You know that ain't true.

Lina, if you bail on them,
they are going to fall apart.

Just like the East LA
squad. Lina, that sucked.

I can't go back.
I'll look stupid.

Yeah, but you gotta.
You're the captain.

I hate you guys!

And we miss you, too, boo.

Now, go ahead. Do us right.

Come on.

I'm not replacing the girls.

We don't have enough time. We'll
just rework the routines. Okay?

I have bad news.

We are turning in our pom
poms. Sorry. We're done.

Later. Peace.

Guys...

They hate me.

What? Why?

They said it's hard enough
to keep their grades up,

my routines are too hard,

and that the extra practice is sending
their GPAs into a downward spiral.

So, we only have half
an All Star squad now.

So, what are we going to do?

I don't know.

I'm still trying to find a gym around
here, but they all sponsor other squads.

Are you gonna give up?

And let Avery win? Never.

Hey, Cat,

you're dreaming if you
still think you have a shot

at winning the
Spirit Championships.

Yeah, it's a
competition. Not a siesta.

Back off, skanks, before I slap
that cheer out of your mouth.

I mean, you think you can just roll up
on us without even thinking about it?

Yo, yo, we don't
play that game.

And I am so sick of you
fronting like you were stunting.

You know what? As
a matter of fact...

No, no, no, no, Sky...
This is not gonna be good.

This is not gonna be
good. But it's gonna be on.

Check it, I got this.

So, watch what
you're looking at.

Sky. I got this.

Watch what you're looking at.

For real. Just chill. Chill.

Someone's getting
a little ghetto.

Go practice that Zen thing.

Who took the spirit
stick out of your butt?

Look, Avery, Evan was right.

The only reason you sweat me is
because you know that I can beat you.

No, that just means Evan
was wrong about two things.

Choosing you and doubting me.

I don't think so.

No, that's right. You wouldn't. Because,
see, you don't think like an All Star.

Come on.

Don't touch me.

What did that cheer-ial
killer mean by that?

Don't know. Don't have
time to think about it.

Look, I am canceling practice. We're
going to meet after school, though.

Why?

We're going on a field trip.

I knew we should've
took the bus.

Where are we?

Some of my squad still
volunteer here every week.

And I called Gloria and she said
a bunch of them will be here today.

LA! East LA! East LA!

Lina!

What's up, girl?

I miss you, too.

Lina, why are we here?

Because I've got the
best idea I've ever had.

Gloria got this gym to
sponsor us as All Stars!

I know!

All we got to do is combine
Sea Lions with East LA,

and we could
become a dream team!

Look, Avery was right. All Star squads
are nothing like high school squads.

It doesn't matter
where you live.

We can cheer together and
become a whole new All Star team.

I've been trying to tell you.

Okay, I know I
wasn't thinking.

Sea Lions, come on,
get into formation!

See? My routine has a serious
Latin and hip hop feel,

and no matter how hard I
try, they still don't get it.

"My routine?" Lina, you're
the one who needs to get it.

What?

You are trying
to make them us.

No, I'm trying
to make them good.

Look, Lina, you know that every
cheerleader has their strengths.

Use them. Stop trying to make the
Sea Lions something they're not.

Use Christina's
gymnastic skills.

And nobody has better
facials than Sky.

And she's stupid flexible.

Maybe we can up the
difficulty on all the stunts.

Yo, it'd be tight if we added
another pyramid sequence.

And a load
into a 2-1-1?

And look, since the party, they
got some rhythm in their hips.

Maybe I can get Victor to teach
them some of their boxing moves.

Girl, yo, that would be dope.

We're about to have an All Star
routine that's off the chain.

No one's going to think
to break it down like this.

Nobody. Okay. All right.

Okay, Sea Lions,

are you guys ready to be All
Stars? You guys down with it?

Okay, Y to the yes! You know,
we can come here to practice.

Dream Team, let's get to work!

Excuse me.

I like you, Lina.

I like that you're
stubborn and competitive.

Because you're talented.

And that you're an
insanely beautiful klutz.

You know, and I like
how you brush me off

but at the same time you make
me feel like you're into it

and that maybe
I have a chance.

You know, and the fact that you think
you're so different and out of place here.

But in all reality,
you're just being yourself.

And the way you look at me,

I mean, I feel like
you actually see me.

And most of all,

I like that I can
be myself around you.

Ooh!

Everybody got that?

Yeah, I got that.

We heard every word.

We're putting it on YouTube!

Good.

Now it's on you.

Evan, what was that?

I thought we
talked about this.

Yeah, I love you, too, sis.

Are you trying
to ruin my life?

Don't worry, it's
only cheerleading!

Look who's barrio
fabulous again.

What are they doing here?

You were right, Avery. I wasn't
thinking like an All Star.

But you know what?

What?

Now I'm thinking
like a winner.

Honestly, I'm
glad they're here,

because when you're an All Star you
want to compete against the best.

And you guys are...

I'm so sorry. I really thought that
I could say that with a straight face.

But the truth is
you're still losers.

I don't speak Taco Bell
menu. So, what does that mean?

Bring it!

Hey, guys. I'm Giuliana Rancic
here for E! Entertainment News,

at the All Star
Spirit Championship.

Cheerleaders from all
over have come right here

to see which squad is the
best of the best. So get ready

for one of the fiercest cheerleading
competitions you have ever seen.

Whoa!

All right, take a
bow. What? Dream Team!

The teams moving on to
the finals tomorrow are

Glendale,

the Jaguars,

the California
All Stars,

and the Malibu
Dream Team!

The heat is on. And we're
gonna be back tomorrow,

to see who takes home the coveted
All Star Spirit Championship trophy.

Thanks, Henry.

For everything.

Great. Now he's gonna
love you forever.

Giuliana Rancic
here for E! News.

And we are just moments away from
the final rounds in the second day

of the All Star
Spirit Championship.

The teams to watch for are
newcomers the Malibu Dream Team

and the returning
champion, All Star Jaguars.

Both teams bring very different
styles to this competition.

And from what I've seen,

it is gonna come down to
heart versus experience.

That was a fantastic performance
by the All Star Jaguars,

but this David and Goliath
story is far from over.

Up next, the
Malibu Dream Team.

You see all those people out
there? They believe in us.

This is the Spirit Championship, and
I ain't leaving without a bracelet.

Y'all down? Yeah!

You okay?

I just wish she were here.

Your mother's always
here. In your heart.

Dream Team! Dream Team!

Wow, those were two
outstanding performances.

Now let's see what the
judges have decided.

It's official. The
best of the best are

the Malibu Dream Team!

Dream Team! Dream Team!

Dream Team! Dream Team!

The crowd is going crazy.
It is an official upset.

The best of the best, the winners
of the All Star Spirit Championship

and the team that has
captured the nation's heart,

is the Malibu Dream Team.

So, is this the part
where we kiss and make up?

Cat, bite me.

I know. I know. Losing
sucks. It's mine.

Come on, Lina, let's
go take a picture.

Now I have all my sisters.

With me

The way

With me

I try to get to you

How far

I gotta get to you

I gotta get to you

Smiling beautiful

First sight

I"m gonna tell
him the truth

It took a little
while to realize

I was falling for you

"Cause all I
see is your face

You really blow me away

With all that you do

And if I see you again
I"ll take you into my hands

I"m calling out say

Take my heart I"ll
let you lead the way

I gotta get to you

Stars are lost without
you here with me

I gotta get to you

No matter how far

I gotta get to you

Wherever you are

I gotta get to you

I wake up to the
break of sunlight

You are in my head

It"s like you put
a hole in my mind

Though we haven"t met

Now all I see is your face
You really blow me away

I got to have you

And if I see you again
I"ll take you into my hands

I"m calling out say

Take my heart I"ll
let you lead the way

I gotta get to you

Stars are lost without
you here with me

I gotta get to you

No matter how far

I gotta get to you

Wherever you are

I gotta get to you

Now I"m waiting you"ve
got me anticipating

Look at me
falling for you

Take me now you
know I"m waiting

Look at me anticipating
Look at me falling for you

Now or never forever
Take it to another level

I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you

Now or never forever
Take it to another level

Come on I"m waiting
for you, you

Take my heart I"ll
let you lead the way

I gotta get to you

Stars are lost without
you here with me

I gotta get to you

No matter how far

No matter how far
I gotta get to you

Wherever you are

Wherever you may be

Take my heart I"ll
let you lead the way

I gotta get to you

Stars are lost without
you here with me

I gotta get to you

No matter how far

I gotta get to you

Wherever you are

I gotta get to you
