Austin & Ally (2011–2016): Season 1, Episode 15 - Filmmaking & Fear Breaking - full transcript

Subs created by: David Coleman.

Can you play this?

Oh, please. I can play
that in my sleep.

Can you play it this way?

"Yes, I can."

Guess who got a job
in Dez's movie!

That's right, I'm shooting
my first big movie.

It's about a giant sand
crab who attacks Miami.

I call it "Claws, Dun Dun Dun!"

Ooh, "Claws." I like that title.

It's not called "Claws". It's
called "Claws, Dun Dun Dun."



Yeah yeah, who cares about the
title or the stupid crab?

My character's the real star.

Girl ♪2.

Girl ♪2 gets eaten
in the first scene.

What?! You didn't tell me that.

If girl ♪2 doesn't live
till the end of the movie,

neither will the director.
Dun dun dun!

Fine, your character won't
get eaten till the end.

But just so you know, I'm
naming the crab Trish...

Because it's mean and
everyone's afraid of it.

Oh, Dez. That's so sweet.

You're gonna be
in the movie too.

You're going to play Troy,
the handsome lifeguard

who battles the crab
and saves the town.



Awesome! Now I'm officially
a quadruple threat...

Actor, singer, dancer,
and balloon-er.

And Ally, that leaves
just one role left...

The cute songwriter who works
at the local music store.

Sally. I wrote it specifically for
the most talented girl I know.

Dez, I'm flattered.

Not you, Selena Gomez.

But she's unavailable, so...

Do you wanna play the part?

As much as I appreciate
being your second choice,

I can't do your movie.
I have stage fright.

But you have to. We start
shooting tomorrow.

I'll play Sally.

How you going to play two
parts in the same movie?

It's easy. When I was in middle school,
I played three parts in the same play.

It was a modern take
on "Romeo and Juliet,"

"Romeo and Juliet and Lupita."

"Oh, Romeo, Romeo,
wherefore art thou Romeo?"

"It is the east and
Juliet is the sun."

"No te quiero cerca
de mi novio."

When the crowd wants more,
I bring on the thunder.

'Cause you've got my back,
and I'm not going under.

You're my point,
you're my guard.

You're the perfect chord.

And I see our names together
on every billboard.

We're headed for the top,
we've got it on lock.

We'll make 'em say "hey!"

And we'll keep rockin'.

Oh, there's no way I could
make it without ya.

Do it without ya,
be here without ya.

It's no fun when
you're doing it solo.

With you it's like, "whoa".
Yeah, and I know.

I own this dream.

'Cause I got you with me.

There's no way I could
make it without ya.

Do it without ya,
be here without ya.

I still don't get why you
can't be in Dez's movie.

I know you have stage fright, but
it's not like there's an audience,

just Dez and some actors.

It doesn't matter. I still have
to perform in front of people.

I don't like that
kind of pressure.

But you have the most
gruesome death in the movie.

The crab rips you in half and then your
head gets to watch him eat your legs.

No way! That changes everything.

- Really?
- No.

So how are the auditions going?

Great. There's only one
more role to cast.

I'm here to audition
for "Santa Claus."

Nelson, the movie's called
"Claws," not "Santa Claus."

Aw, nartz!

You know how hard it was
to build this in Miami?

Dez, I hope you don't mind, I made
some small changes to your script,

starting with the title.

"Girl ♪2 versus Claws."

And if you don't like that,
we could just go with...

"Girl ♪2: The movie."

No! No no no no no!

We're making the movie like I wrote it.
This is my dream.

I still want to help you on
your movie, just not on camera.

Hey Dez, let her do props.

Didn't you say you needed someone to
build you a miniature lighthouse?

Yeah, but that's going
to take hours and hours.

I need someone with,
like, no social life.

That's perfect for Ally!

Hey, I have a social life.

I'll have you know, I went
to a party last year.

It was back-to-school night.

There were refreshments and teachers.
That makes it a party.

- No, it doesn't.
- Okay, I'm your prop girl.

So what are you going to
do about Ally's part?

I rewrote it.

Now you just pull the girl out of the
ocean and give her mouth-to-mouth.

It's between those
two actresses.

I'm leaning towards Brittany, but
Mildred's got some good acting chops.

- Pick Brittany! Pick Brittany!
- Okay.

The part's yours, Brittany.
You can go, Mildred.

That's Brittany? Pick Mildred!
Pick Mildred!

Oh, scratch that.
You're out, Brittany.

Mildred, you're back in.

Here's your lighthouse, Dez. I
was up all night making it.

- This is amazing.
- Thank you.

It took 7,000 toothpicks, 83 bottles of
glue, and one trip the emergency room

to get a glued toothpick out
of my nose, but it's done!

Wow. It lights up, it spins
around and everything.

I almost feel bad for cutting
it out of the movie.

Ha! Don't feel bad. I kind of...
What?!

You're cutting my prop?

Ooh, yeah, we're not going
to shoot that scene,

so we don't need that
lighthouse any more.

Man, isn't showbiz fun?

Okay, guys, we're shooting
the finale first.

Troy the lifeguard rescues the
drowning girl from the ocean.

I'll save her!

Whoa, Nelson, you're not
playing Troy the lifeguard.

- You're playing scared little boy.
- No fair! I'm calling my agent!

Hi, mom.

Okay. Austin, after
you rescue the girl,

Claws is going to suddenly
come up through the sand.

Whoa, that thing looks scary!

Yeah, but it's all special effects.
That claw is perfectly safe.

Help help! This
stupid claw's got me!

Oh!

That was pretty good, right?

Quit messing around, Trish.
You don't get eaten by Claws.

You just scream when it
comes out of the sand.

All I do is scream?

Oh, what if I say, "Claws, no!"

"Don't eat my sister?"

She's not your sister.

I know. I thought it'd be more
dramatic if we were related.

And then when the claw attacked
her, I could cry in a close-up.

"Why? Oh, why?"

"Why did you have
to take my sister?"

I could amp it up
more if you want.

Hey, I am the director.

Nobody comes onto my movie set and
changes my script except for me.

Could you change the line to, "why?
Why? Why did you take my sister?"

Maybe the line would work better

if Trish was looking at a
lighthouse in the distance.

Ooh, sorry, no lighthouse.

Okay, let's shoot this thing!

Austin, when you save the girl, you're
gonna lay her down in the sand,

under the umbrella.

- Under the...
- Under the umbrella.

And action!

I'll save you!

Ah, help! Ah!

You're okay... I'm gonna
put you on the sand.

Nothing bad can happen
to you on the sand.

Are you sure it has to
be under the umbrella?

Cut! Uh, yeah.

It has to be under the umbrella.

I can't do your movie.
Sorry, Dez.

Sorry, Mildred.

Did he just say he
can't do my movie?

- What was that about?
- Maybe he caught stage fright from Ally!

Stage fright's not contagious.

Just in case.

Hey, why did you
run off like that?

It almost seemed like you were afraid
to go under the beach umbrella.

That's ridiculous.

I mean, who's afraid
of umbrellas?

I know, that would weird, right?

It's not weird!

No way. You're
afraid of umbrellas.

Pf ft! I know you
are, but what am I?

You're afraid of umbrellas.

Ah!

Okay, fine, I'm
afraid of umbrellas.

Go ahead, laugh. I know
you think it's silly.

What?

I don't think it's silly.

I'm afraid of umbrellas too!

Every time I see an
umbrella, I'm like..

"Ah! Umbrellas are so scary!"

Nice try.

You don't know how tough it is.
Umbrellas are everywhere...

Patio umbrellas, rain umbrellas,

tiny umbrellas they
put in fruit drinks.

Oh, you mean like this?

Oh, um, sorry. Um...

Why are you afraid
of them anyway?

- Can you keep a secret?
- Who am I going to tell?

I go to one party a year.

Fine.

It happened in fourth grade.

We were on a field trip to the beach and
brought umbrellas in case it rained.

Some day I'm going to make a
movie about a giant sand crab.

Dun dun dun!

Some day I'm going to be an
overnight Internet sensation.

Hey, Dez, check it out.

I'm gonna jump off that sand
dune and see if I can fly.

How you gonna do that, Austin?

With my umbrella.

I'm gonna go get my camera
off the bus to film this.

The umbrella got stuck in my
belt loop, a gust of wind came

and the umbrella flew
away with my pants.

All the kids were
laughing at me.

I was humiliated.

Hey, look, flying pants!

Well, now I know why you're
scared of umbrellas.

I've never been more
embarrassed in my life.

That's why I've never told
anyone that story before.

Not even Dez knows that
I'm afraid of umbrellas.

Well, your secret's
safe with me.

What secret?

- Um...
- Um...

I'm waiting.

Um, Austin's caught
my stage fright.

I knew it was contagious!

Austin, you've got to
come back to my movie.

Come on, Austin, I need you!

This movie can get me to
my first film festival.

You know that's my dream.

I know.

Count me back in. I won't
let you down, buddy.

Great. See you
guys at the beach.

Oh, and before I forget,

Ally, I need you to make one of
these claw crackers for the movie.

- That shouldn't be too hard.
- It's gotta be five feet tall.

And I need it in one hour.
See you guys!

What am I going to do, Ally?
Dez is counting on me.

I've got a plan.

You're afraid of umbrellas because
you connect them with a bad memory.

To overcome that fear, you have to
connect umbrellas with a good memory.

From now on, whenever
you think of umbrellas,

you're gonna think of your
three favorite things.

Pancakes, cheerleaders
and Lebron James?

Exactly.

You got Lebron James?

No, but I got his limo driver.

All you have to do is sit under the
patio umbrella and make a good memory.

I can do that.

- Yeah, I can.
- Boo.

You're doing great.

There you go. See?

I think this is gonna work.

Uh-oh, looks like
it's going to rain.

This is supposed to
be a good memory!

It's chasing me!

Um, Ally, I think I'm still
afraid of umbrellas.

Well, at least you still have
your pants on this time.

I can either scream like this...

Or like this...

They both sound the same.

- The second one was in spanish.
- Oh!

You guys ready to
shoot this scene?

I don't know, Dez. It looks
like it's gonna rain.

No problem.

We have these.

Oh yay.

I didn't sign up for
shooting in the rain.

I'm just gonna use
my stunt double.

You have a stunt double?

There's a scene where Claws
tosses me off a 30-foot cliff.

Better her than me.

So, Brittany, how do you
feel about cliff diving?

Hey, Dez, what if we shoot the
movie without any umbrellas?

We can't. It's symbolic.

Umbrellas protect
people from rain

and your character protects Miami
from Claws' reign of terror.

You are an umbrella.

See you guys down at the beach!
Woo!

I don't know what to do, Ally.

I should just tell Dez
I can't do his movie.

I'm never gonna
get over my fear.

Yes, you are.

I think I'm ready to tell you
how I got my stage fright.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I don't want you to keep going
through what I go through.

It happened a couple
of years ago.

I was auditioning to get into a
prestigious music school in New York.

They sent a scout down
to Florida and my dad

let them use Sonic Boom
to hold auditions.

Well, that was horrendous!

May I suggest a career
smashing watches?

Because you're good at wasting time.
Next!

Well, I hope you're better than
the last girl, Miss Dawson.

You know, getting in this school could
make or break your entire music career.

Don't blow it!

You may begin.

I was so afraid of ruining
my one chance, I lost it.

So, uh...

Do-overs?

Anyway, I didn't get in.

That's why I have stage fright.

You only get so many chances to make
it and I don't want to fail again.

If I don't perform,
I can't fail.

Wow, Ally, I'm just afraid
to be embarrassed again.

Your fear is way
worse than mine.

That's kind of why I
told you the story.

Like ten times worse!

I mean, my umbrella fear doesn't
stop me from chasing my dreams.

But your stage fright?
Wow, you're a mess.

Okay, I get it.

Thanks for making me realize
how silly my fear is.

I'm gonna do Dez's movie.

It's only one little umbrella.

I can totally do this.

That's not one little umbrella.

- I cannot totally do this.
- You're gonna be fine.

Okay, let's shoot this thing.

Ooh, by the way, we're not going
to need the claw cracker.

Ooh!

Of course we're not.

Maybe you can use it to
crack something else.

Oh, I have something in mind.

Okay, Austin, Mildred is under that
umbrella unaware Claws is behind her.

You have to run through
this maze of umbrellas

and battle Claws to the
death with this oar.

- This or what?
- This oar.

- This or what?
- This oar.

This or what?

- This oar!
- Or what?

- This oar!
- This or what?!

Just fight him with the paddle.

Okay. Places!

- And action!
- Ah!

It's Claws! Don't eat my sister!

Why?

Run for your life!

Get off my beach, Claws.

I'm not scared of you, Claws.

I'm not scared of anything.

Looks like we're having
crab for dinner.

This is so awesome.

- Yeah, Dez.
- Thanks, guys.

I got accepted into the
Miami film festival.

I just got my first
acting agent.

- Who?
- Me.

My favorite part was when you decided
to battle the crab with that umbrella.

I can't believe you did that, especially
since you're so scared of umbrellas.

You knew about that?

Uh, yeah-huh! I'm
your best friend.

I know all your secrets,

like your middle name's Monica and you
only wear boxers with trucks on them.

Dez!

If you knew Austin was
afraid of umbrellas,

then why did you put them
all over your movie set?

Because an awesome director knows how
to get real emotion out of people.

I made Austin scared,
Trish annoyed...

- And you angry.
- I'm not angry.

I didn't put any of your
props in that movie.

I know! How could you do that?

See? Awesome director.

You annoyed me on purpose? You
shouldn't have done that.

"Claws, Dun Dun Dun,"
scene 56, take 17.

How about I do the
scene as Gloria?

Crab, you best step
away from my sister.

Cut! Ally, no lighthouse.

It's Santa Claus!

- Run for your lives!
- Cut! It's just "Claws," Nelson.

Ah!

That was perfect, Brittany.

You just have to jump off
that cliff five more times.

Woo!

You're okay!

I'm gonna put you in the sand nothing
bad can happen to you in the sand.

Cut! Ally, I said no lighthouse.

I'm getting too old
for this crab.

Go ahead, Claws, make my day.

Hasta la vista, crabbie.

Crab, I am your father.

I love the smell of crab
meat in the morning.

Say hello to my little umbrella.
