Make It or Break It (2009–2012): Season 1, Episode 20 - Are We Family? - full transcript

- He doesn't sing in public.
- I'm sorry.

[Emily] I can't talk to you,
Damon.

Don't call me. Don't contact me.

And don't come to the Invitational.

I think it's best
if we stop dating.

I want you to be happy.
I love you both.

[up-tempo music plays]

* This a big one right here *

Lauren, you had one of the worst
performances of your career last month in
Beijing.

What happened? And can you
turn it around tomorrow?

I guess I can tell you guys now...



I was competing with a severe
case of the stomach flu.

I am here with Sara Columbo,
Rock Team member.

- Sara, are you nervous?
- I'm, um, Emily Kmetko.

- Who?
- Everyone knows,

no American gymnast,
not even the healthy ones,

medaled on beam against China.

But tomorrow I will be the first.

Emily Kmetko.
I'm on the National Team.

[speaking foreign language]

My back's a hundred percent

but I'm not up to
competition level yet.

So although I won't be competing tomorrow,
I'll be on the floor supporting my
teammates.

- Any plans for Nationals next year?
- Just to win it.

Yes, we know who you are.



You are the one everyone
thinks doesn't belong.

Yeah.

Hey. The Chinese will
be here any minute

and Kaylie's still not here.

She told me last night
she was doing the meet.

Could something have changed
her mind...? - She'll be here.

OK.

[M.J.] You're doing the
right thing, Kaylie.

This is a non-sanctioned meet.
You're under no obligation

to lose your status or your endorsements
just to have the backs of your teammates.

Especially when the only thing

they have in my back is a knife.

Well, not all of them.

This is ultimately an
individual quest for the Gold.

Your teammates may act
like your friends,

but everyone is looking
out for number one.

You should do the same.

Funny, that's what my dad said.

Wow. For once we agree.

- Where is your father?
- Taking his own advice.

Well, the National Committee
and I have your back.

I wonder what the Chinese will do

when they find out they
came all the way to Boulder

and the US National Champion
isn't even gonna compete?

That's not your problem.
I want you to lay low.

Don't answer the phone.
I don't want you talking to the press

or your friends until
this blows over.

You don't owe anyone
an explanation. OK?

Ladies, remember,

the Chinese prefer to
shake hands very lightly

and they lower their eyes
as a symbol of respect.

Let's do the same so
we don't appear rude.

Talk about rude,
the National Champion

isn't even here to greet them.

Yeah, I know. Where is Kaylie?
I can't believe she's late.

[pop music playing]

There's Genji Cho!

That's Genji Cho?
She looks like a kid.

Don't be fooled, they're machines.

They take them away from their
parents and the little gymbots

are practically forced to do
gymnastics around the clock,

every single day.
It's all they know.

[whispering] Let's go!

Are we still sure
Kaylie's coming? - Yeah.

It's all over, Belov.
Kaylie's not doing the meet.

I'm glad I'm here to see you cancel

this little ego trip of yours.

Your girls would've
been decimated anyway.

Excuse me. I have an
announcement to make.

I've just been told
that Kaylie Cruz

will not be competing
in the meet tomorrow.

- [indistinct murmuring]
- [Sasha] So...

...as a result, Rachel Colter
will be competing in her place.

[indistinct chatter] - Coach,
do you feel this will affect your chances?

And now, I'd like to introduce

Coach Kai-Yung Tseng
and his honorable team

to Boulder and to The Rock.

[light applause]

We did not travel 7,000 miles

to compete against your
second string, Mr. Belov.

Even without Kaylie Cruz,

I assure you, this team
will give you a fight.

And I assure you,
we will bury your team.

And then, I will bury you.

[Carter] She's probably wigged
about the Invitational tomorrow.

- Give her a little time.
- That's just it, I don't have time.

The prize for the contest
is a European tour.

And I leave tomorrow,
after the radio show.

- For how long?
- Six months.

But I can't leave without trying
to work this out or saying goodbye.

But she said she didn't want
to see me or talk to me,

and I have to respect that, right?

I've been dying to text
her and call her all day,

but she's got a huge day tomorrow,

I don't want to get in the way.

But she might feel
differently if she knew

you were leaving the country
tomorrow for half a year.

How about a letter?
You can pin it by her paycheck.

She's coming by
later to pick it up.

That's good. I can write down
how I feel and what's going down

and she can decide what she wants
to do without any pressure.

And if you want my opinion,

now's not the time to
hold anything back.

Yeah, I can give you
the same advice.

[chuckling]

[indie rock music plays]

[knocking on door]

No! You have to hear us out.

Get her and get out. - Please, Kaylie.
You gotta let us explain.

Explain what? That you've been sneaking
up to Lauren's garage apartment

- to have sex this whole time?
- He was just living up there.

That's all.

You've been living at Lauren's?

- My dad kicked me out.
- He was living in his car.

- Why didn't you tell me?
- What would you have done?

You didn't care when Carter
got kicked out of the gym

and couldn't compete at Nationals,
all to save your career.

Why would you care
if he was homeless?

I let you back into my
life under one condition:

that you'd have nothing to do
with Carter! And you lied to me.

Again. But then why
does that surprise me?

- You're nothing but...
- That's enough!

Seriously, Kaylie. She was being
a friend when I had no one.

And you shouldn't use this to
pull out of the China meet.

- You're defending her?
- Please, Kaylie. We need you.

No. You only need me because
you'll do better with me

than without me. But guess what?

This time I'm looking
out for myself.

We're done here. Let's go.

Please, Kaylie.

- You've gotta believe me.
- Goodbye, Carter.

[grunting]

Her people are telling her
to stay away from The Rock.

[sighing] I'm glad her loyalty
is with her "people," then.

She respects you, Emily.
As a teammate and a friend.

She doesn't want to let you down

but she thinks she's
got too much to lose

- if she competes.
- [scoffing]

That's what she
told me to tell you.

Do you know what I'm losing?
My scholarship.

- Almost half of my family's income.
- Man, that's awful.

What happened? - The National
Committee found out I have a job.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know. I don't know
how we're going to make it.

But, I've come too far
to be passed over.

Gymnastics is my life and
I'm not gonna let anyone...

...or anything get in my way.

Damon?

I should never have been seeing
anybody in the first place.

Where is my mother?

Do you need a ride home?

I came to ask you a favor.

Because of my mistake,
my husband is AWOL

and Kaylie is in a terrible place.

Of course, she doesn't
want to listen

to anything I have to say, but...

I think she's getting
some bad advice. - So do I.

So, could you please
come and talk to her?

I think I've said everything
I could to her, Mrs. Cruz.

Please? We need you.

Right now, you're the
only man in her life.

- You're it.
- [sighing]

[rock music plays]

Hey, Carlos. This is my friend Leo.

- Hey.
- Hey.

I just gotta grab some
stuff from my locker.

- OK.
- Ready?

Yeah, I just have to get my check.

All right. Ready.

Belov. What do you want?

I want you to go home and
talk to your daughter.

You want her to compete,
you talk to her. You're the coach.

And you're the father.
You're the one she needs right now.

So why don't you wrap up
this little pity party

you've been throwing for
yourself and act like a father.

[sighing]

This is exciting.
It's really happening.

- Yeah, we did it.
- You did it.

I do have a question about
the scoreboard, though...

What about it? - China's our opponent.
Not the National Committee.

- Ellen Beals will go ballistic.
- And the problem is...?

I have to admit.
Going rogue is kind of fun.

I think I'm gonna go
back to my old landing.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

I can do that one perfectly.
This thing is stressful enough,

I just don't think it's a
good idea to go too far

out of my comfort zone.

I can't believe Kaylie bailed.

I'd feel so much better
if you were competing.

I'm not ready.

Can I tell you a secret?

I still can't go on bars.

I tried, but since I got
hurt I haven't been able

- to touch them.
- You will.

Can I tell you a secret?

[inhales] The other night,

I said "I love you" to
someone for the first time.

Wow! Talk about going out
of your comfort zone.

If you can do that, I mean,
this should be...

- ...I'm just sayin'.
- [chuckling]

So, your husband
won't be joining us?

He wanted to, but he
got called out of town.

Business. - In that case,
I'll just get to it.

- Oh, look! You're back!
- Sorry, everyone.

Hope I didn't miss anything.
Hey, kiddo.

- Hi!
- So, what's this all about?

Just a long-overdue visit.
I realized I'd never told

you and your wife
how much all of us

on the National Committee
appreciate Kaylie.

She's a real asset.
To both her country and her team.

If I was such an asset,
why didn't I go to Beijing?

Because Beijing was unwinnable.

It was in everyone's best
interest to protect you.

You understand, I'm sure, Alex,
as you were a star athlete.

- You have to pick your battles.
- Hm-hm.

The world needs to see
you as a winner, Kaylie.

You couldn't have won in China.

I wish your coach understood that,
but he doesn't.

We're the ones who have your
back here, not Coach Belov.

- We all appreciate it.
- You're lucky to have Alex as a dad.

You don't get to be a
major league phenomenon

like your father
unless you understand

how the game is played.
On and off the field.

Thanks for coming by, Ms. Beals.

It's a great comfort
knowing that Kaylie

has someone looking out for her.

What a pompous ass.

Who does she think she is,
coming into my home

telling us that
you're not good enough

to win a Gold medal
against the Chinese?

Why aren't you competing today?

The National Committee
doesn't want me to,

and my sponsors and my
manager are freaked out,

and I don't trust...
certain members of my team.

You're a gymnast. An elite athlete.

None of those are reasons

why you shouldn't
go out there and do

what you're born to do.
So, what's really stopping you?

- No one thinks I can win.
- What do you think?

- I think they're right.
- [Ronnie] Kaylie...

Nationals was supposed to be
this huge validation for me,

but practically the second I won,

everybody was saying
that it a fluke.

And ever since the
day I got the title?

I've been terrified of the day

that I have to prove
it wasn't a fluke.

So, what, you're
gonna just run away?

Quit gymnastics altogether?

I can't.

I was born to do this.

Then go do it. You're gonna
have to face that fear someday,

it might as well be today.

[dance music plays]

Here they are,
the Chinese National Team.

The best in the world,
and some say, ever assembled.

[applause]

[male announcer] And
here come the young women

from the Rocky Mountain
Gymnastics Training Center.

Perhaps the gutsiest
team ever assembled.

[female announcer] Some people
are calling them the craziest.

To do this meet,
especially without Kaylie Cruz?

You girls look nervous!
I will give you one thing.

When you decide to go down in flames,
you girls go big.

[male announcer] Let
the games begin.

[speaking in Chinese]

Do you know why younger
gymnasts have an advantage

over older gymnasts?

It's not because they're
more flexible or stronger.

It's because they're more fearless.

- But I believe that...
- [audience cheering]

[audience murmuring]

[male announcer] Things are
getting very interesting here.

It looks like National
Champ Kaylie Cruz

is back in the
line-up for The Rock.

Kaylie, we had a deal. - My daughter
doesn't make deals with the devil.

Coach Belov?
I want to compete today.

I think we can arrange that.

And I'd like to talk to my team,
if that's OK with you?

You are the team leader.

[female announcer] It
looks like Kaylie Cruz,

the team captain, wants to
give her team the pep talk.

You want to know the real
reason I disappeared?

I was afraid.

I was afraid that I was going
to come out here and choke,

and that my National
win really was a fluke.

I know you guys are afraid, too.

But we each have something
bigger than our fear.

We have each other.

Not sure what Kaylie is telling
her teammates right now,

but they look like
they're getting fired up.

Guys, we're more than a team.
We're a family.

Those girls out there aren't
allowed to have lives,

so they don't have
distractions. We do.

And we have our issues.

With our parents. With boys.

With each other.

That's part of being a family.

And yeah, we have our fear.
But you know what?

It's OK to have fear because
that means you have passion.

But just for today,
we're gonna leave the fear in here,

and we're gonna take
that passion out there,

onto that floor.

Where this Rock Family
is gonna go, right now,

- and kick some serious ass.
- [all] Yeah!

- [Lauren] Let's do this!
- [Kaylie] Ready?

- One, two, three...
- [all yelling] Rock on!

[cheering]

[* We Are Family plays]

[audience cheering]

[male announcer] That's why
they call these girls renegades.

The contrast between these
teams couldn't be clearer.

[female announcer] The first rotation
will be vault and floor exercise.

The Rock is looking to
get five medals today

to beat the performance of
the National team in Beijing.

* As we walk on by *

* And we fly just like
birds of a feather *

* I won't tell no lie *

- * All of the people around us they say *
- [cheering, applause]

* Can they be that close? *

[male announcer] The Chinese
are off to an amazing start.

They might as well stop looking up.

Their names aren't gonna
be on that board all day.

[male announcer] Here
she is... Genji Cho.

Americans who have never seen
this athlete compete before

are in for a shock.
She is in a league of her own.

She won every Gold medal
in Beijing last month.

[up-tempo music plays]

[female announcer] I'm
frankly speechless.

A three-and-a-half twist?
Who does that?

That was absolutely incomparable.

You've got to feel a little sorry

for Kaylie Cruz right now.

She's the gymnast that
has to follow that.

- [music stops]
- [applause]

[male announcer] What a
stunning performance!

Genji Cho has taken the
lead on the floor exercise!

[exhaling] - [male announcer]
This is Kaylie's first appearance

in a competition of this
magnitude since Nationals.

It's time for her to show the world

what she's really made of.

[female announcer] A
beautiful routine!

Kaylie Cruz has upped her
game since Nationals.

[female announcer] As predicted,
Genji Cho gets the Gold.

But The Rock's Kaylie Cruz
just won the Silver on floor.

[male annocer] Giving The Rock
its first medal of the day!

That was very good,
Kaylie... for you being so old.

[girls giggling]

All right, come on, team,
let's keep it going!

[applause]

- OK?
- [sighing]

You can medal in this, Emily.
You've trained hard.

I'm gonna do it.
I'm doing the blind landing.

And I'm gonna nail
the blind landing.

That'a girl.

No more fear, Emily. Trust.

[sighing]

- Go, Em!
- You got this!

[pop music plays]

[male announcer] This is
the first time Emily Kmetko

has attempted this vault.
It's a new vault for her,

it's a Yurchenko one-and-a-half.

Trust.

* Yeah *

[cheers and applause]

* The one nobody loves *

* Don't give me, nobody loves *

- [Sasha laughing]
- Whoo!

[male announcer] She nailed it!

Emily Kmetko wins the second
medal of the day for The Rock!

Yeah!

[female announcer] Emily
is another athlete

who had something
big to prove today.

And it looks like she just did!

We're moving on to the next
rotation: bars and beam.

China will kick things off,
followed by The Rock.

Here's Genji Cho, on bars.

[male announcer] Genji Cho
is just flawless today.

It's apparent why no
one has yet beaten her.

[applause]

That's as close to perfect
as you're gonna get.

And here's the score. Amazing!

Sasha Belov's strategy has
got to pay off, right here.

He's counting on Kaylie
Cruz to medal on bars,

and Lauren Tanner to medal on beam.

They're both up, right now.

[* Superchick: Hey, Hey]

* Some people you can
never please *

* You might as well just
let them be *

* They mock everything
not their own *

* From their imaginary throne *

* But I won't bow down *

* Even if the whole world
thinks I'm crazy *

* So, hey, hey this
song is for us *

* So put your hands in the air *

* If you're crazy like us Hey,
hey *

* Hey, hey That's freedom
you hear *

* Coming right to your ear *

* That's the sound from our bus *

* Hey, hey *

* Hey, Hey! *

* Hey, Hey! *

* Hey, Hey! *

* Hey, Hey! *

* Hey, Hey! *

- [cracks]
- [cheers and applause]

All right!

Go, Kaylie!

That's a stunner.
Kaylie Cruz did not break

the top three on bars.

And this is really
gonna hurt The Rock.

And here's Lauren
Tanner's score on beam...

- Excellent!
- [cheers and applause]

[groaning] - [female
announcer] But, is she limping?

She is. Lauren Tanner is hurt.

- [gasping]
- [audience murmuring]

Damn it!

[sighing]

You're on bars next.
How do you feel?

I'm fine.

[male announcer] Well,
this is a big problem for The Rock.

With Kaylie Cruz not
medaling on bars,

Sasha Belov needed
Lauren Tanner to do so.

And now it looks like she
may be done for the day.

[female announcer] Hard to see,
given the lineup,

how The Rock can get
that fifth medal now.

His alternate hasn't even been

in an international
competition before.

Payson.

You're in.

- Me?
- You.

You're cleared to do
gymnastics, let's go.

But I'm working my way
back with simple routines.

It will never be enough to medal.

Rachel wouldn't medal, either.

But you will inspire your
team to do the impossible.

Sasha. I haven't been on
the bars since my injury.

I...

I can't. I'm...
I'm so afraid of them.

- You've got this, Pay.
- You can do it, Payson.

Payson, you were here
to help me do this

and now I'm here for you.

Come on.

[* Caitlyn Smith:
Crushed and Created]

* Looking back on the things
that found me *

* Places that *

* We'd never choose *

* The same things that both
haunt and heal *

* My demons and my muse *

* We are crushed and created *

* And we are melted and made *

* We are broken and built in
the very same way *

* What I thought I could handle *

[male announcer] You are about
to witness history in the making.

Payson Keeler is about to
perform for the first time

since what we thought was
a career-ending injury.

[sighs]

- Trust.
- Trust.

What are you waiting for?
You can do this.

* And I'm wiser *

* And I'm stronger *

* We are crushed and created *

* And we are melted and made *

* We are broken and built in
the very same way *

* What I thought I could handle *

* What I thought I could take *

* What I thought would
destroy me *

* Leaves me stronger,
stronger... *

- [applause and cheering]
- Whoo-hoo!

Yeah!

- [Emily] You did it, Pay.
- [Kylie] Yes.

- Yeah!
- [Lauren] Awesome, Pay.

- * What I thought I could handle *
- Good job.

* What I thought I could take *

* What I thought would
destroy me *

[male announcer] It's odd to
see the great Payson Keeler

do such a simple routine

but, I've... I've never
seen her look better.

The Rock looks more fired up
than we've ever seen them.

Will this rattle Genji Cho?

[rock music plays]

[applause]

[male announcer] Spectacular
beam by Genji Cho!

It looks like she will
sweep the Golds here today,

just like she did in Beijing.

[female announcer] Hard
to see who can touch that.

- Trust.
- Trust.

[male announcer] Emily Kmetko is
the last gymnast up on the bars.

She is trying to give The Rock
its fourth medal of the day,

tying the number of medals won by
the National Team won in Beijing.

Emily Kmetko? Fat ance.

[male announcer] This is a
very high pressure situation

for this young gymnast.

[female announcer] Yeah,
this is where her inexperience

might be a problem for her.

Just dealing with the
pressure of this situation.

- [heartbeats]
- Trust.

[audience cheering]

- Oh, wow!
- That was awesome!

Good job!

Look over there.

- [cheers and applause]
- [screaming]

[male announcer] I think it's safe
to say nobody expected Emily Kmetko

to get a Silver medal on bars.

[female announcer] She's walking out of
here today with a Silver and a Bronze.

Let's remember, that's as
good as Kelly Parker did

against the Chinese last month.

[male announcer] I think this
young woman answered any questions

anyone could have had
about her background,

her training, or her worth

as a National Team member today.

And she's also proven that
Sasha Belov was right.

His renegade group
here has just won

as many medals against the Chinese

as the hand-selected members
of the US National Team.

Kaylie Cruz is the last
athlete for The Rock.

If she medals on beam,

The Rock will beat
the US's four medals.

Listen to me carefully, Kaylie.

I want you to add a triple twist.

I've seen you working on it.

- You can do it.
- Why?

We have the four medals.

If I j5st do my routine clean,
we can probably get our five.

And that would be
wonderful for the team.

But I'm talking about you, Kaylie.

I'm talking about you going
for the Gold, right now.

- You think I can beat that?
- Yeah, I do.

Prove yourself,
right here, right now.

But if I don't land it,
I might not medal at all.

And we won't beat
the National Team.

But if you do? You're clearly
the best gymnast in America.

And you rival the very
best in the world.

[* Superchick: Alive]

* Don't bury me I'm not yet dead *

* Don't bury me I'm not yet dead *

* I'm alive, I'm alive
That's what I say *

* I'm alive, I'm alive Gonna
live that way *

* I'm alive, I'm alive
That's what I say *

* I'm alive and I'm gonna
live today... *

[male announcer] We're used to Kaylie
being such a crowd pleaser on the floor.

Who knew you could play
to the crowd on the beam?

* We were born with wings *

* We were made to fly *

* We were made to live while
we're still alive *

* I'm alive, I'm alive
That's what I say *

* I'm alive, I'm alive Gonna
live that way *

- * I'm alive, I'm alive... *
- [applause]

[cheers and applause]

Whoa! Whoo!

I don't believe what I just saw.
Was that a triple twist?

* I'm alive, I'm alive
That's what I say *

* I'm alive, I'm alive Gonna
live today... *

[screaming, cheering]

[male announcer] You are
looking at the first gymnast

to beat Genji Cho for Gold.

[female announcer] Kaylie Cruz
is the best gymnast in the US,

one of the best, perhaps,
that we've had.

The Rock stuns the gymnastic world

by winning five medals today.

And someone at the National Team
has a lot of explaining to do.

These girls clearly should've
been taken to Beijing.

Kaylie had home gym advantage.

She never could've
done that in China.

Don't let Kaylie Cruz leave
before I talk with her.

[female announcer] What a great job
defending your title today, Kaylie.

I'm no longer defending it.
I'm letting it speak for itself.

Emily, that was the most poised,
professional performance

as we've seen from you.

Thanks. It felt great.

For the first time,
I felt really open out there.

I felt fre [laughing]

- Anything you want to say?
- I still don't like you.

- You don't have to.
- It's not over, Belov.

Far from it.

[all laughing]

[rock music plays]

You must feel pretty
good right now.

You know what? I do.

Thank you. You really
helped me get here.

I hope you still wanna thank
me after I give you this...

Where did you get this?

I took it from the board
when we stopped by

to pick up your check.

Why would you do that?

To protect you.

You'd just told me how
important it was to focus

and I didn't want anything
to mess with that.

So, I figured I'd hold onto the
note until after the China meet.

Do you really think
that was your call?

Maybe not. Look, I didn't read it.

I'm sorry if I did the wrong thing.

I was trying to help you out.

* Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh,
oh, oh, oh *

* Crack a smile but let
each other know *

* Even though I know *

Hey. How's your ankle?

How's your Gold medal on beam?

Wait.

I never thought you'd beat me on beam,
Kaylie, but you did.

I have to admit,
you were amazing. - Thanks.

Listen, I know you may never
be able to trust me again,

but there's one thing
you should trust in.

Carter.

He loves you, Kaylie.

His heart and soul belong to you.

If anyone ever loved me that much,

I'd find a way to forgive him

for making one mistake
he truly regrets.

[inaudible]

- Turn on the radio!
- What? Why?

Just turn it on to 86.7.

[station buzzing]

[Damon on radio] When I was in Shelter Pups
I was the guy who wrote the songs.

I never saw myself as a front man.

You guys... That's Damon.

- Where?
- On the radio.

[Damon] Well, what's the thing
that changes everything?

[male announcer] A girl. - [Damon] Believe
me, this isn't just any girl.

She, uh... inspires me.

She made my music better.

She made me better. - [announcer] I take
it she's not in the picture anymore?

[Damon] She's pursuing her
own dreams right now.

And I know she's kicking ass.

[announcer] We're sitting
here with Damon Young.

He just won a nationwide
talent search.

And it says here... and I
can't believe this is true,

but it says that you had a phobia

about singing in front
of other people.

- When did that end?
- It's about to end now.

Whoa. So this is the first
time you're going to...?

Sing my songs.
In front of strangers.

And what turned that around?

Well, that would be the same girl.

Two days ago I told somebody "I
love you" for the first time.

I've never allowed myself
to fall for anyone before,

to let them in.

Well, I finally did.

I love you Emily, wherever you are.

And I'm so glad I told you,
and I'm so glad I can say that,

and I can sing it to the world.

Letting go and loving you...

...opened me up, made me free.

Free enough to do this.

It made me better, too.

[announcer] You're leaving for a six
month European tour tonight.

Let's give these people a taste
of what they're gonna get.

[Damon] This is for you, Emily.

I thought you would've
come to say goodbye.

I guess you really
are letting me go.

But thank you... for giving
me the guts to fall...

...for opening me up to life.

I will never forget you.

[* Paul Freeman: Tightrope]

* I don't want to wait too long *

* And I don't want to
break it down *

* The sun is sinking
just like stone *

* And it's hard for
me to breathe *

I have to go say goodbye.

He's gonna think I didn't
care enough to say goodbye.

Go! - [Kaylie] Come on,
I'll drive you!

* Fear and the pain *

Do what you want.
Love who you want.

* But I'll keep holding *

* Holding *

* And I'm higher before
than I've ever been *

* I was walking a tightrope
can't you see *

* But nobody wants to be alone *

* I was walking a tightrope *

* Can you catch me? *

* If I let go *

Well, go! Before it's too late, go!

* The world is turning
out of time *

Before it's too late.

* Will pull me close *

* And it's all I'll ever need *

[sighs]

It's me. Um...

I know this is crazy, but,
uh, I love you. I just do.

And I know you're right.
We're meant to be together.

So let's just put the stupid
stuff behind us and be together.

I want you to come
to my room tonight.

I'll be waiting for you.

[cell phone beeps]

* I was walking a tightrope *

* Walking a tightrope *

* Can you catch me? *

* If I let go *

[Damon on radio] *
As far as I can see *

Isn't this where Damon
Young was just singing?

Is there another studio?

Oh, you must be Emily.

You're in the right place,
but it's the wrong time.

I don't understand.
I was just listening to him.

Yeah, the show's pre-recorded.

His flight left about
an hour ago. I'm sorry.

* Cause all we are is
skin and bones *

* So just keep holding Just
keep holding on *

* And I'm higher before
th I've ever been *

* I was walking a tightrope *

* Can't you see? *

* Nobody wants to be alone *

* I was walking a tightrope *

* Walking a tightrope *

* Can you catch me? *

* If I let go *

* There's no way back *

* If I let go *

* You're where I'll land *

* So here I go *

* Cause I just want to live *

* And I just want to feel it *

* Oh *

* I just want to feel it *

* I'm higher to fall than
I've ever been *

* I was walking a tightrope
Can't you see? *

* That nobody wants to be alone *

* I was walking a tightrope *

* Can you catch me? *

* If I let go *
