00:00Bibi, over here.
00:01Bibi, over here.
00:02You look amazing.
00:03This way, Bibi.
00:04Bibi.
00:05Right here, Bibi.
00:10Bibi, I love you.
00:11Did you get my letters last week?
00:13Drive!
00:14Bibi!
00:15Bibi!
00:16Bibi!
00:17Bibi!
00:24Are you sure you want to do this?
00:26Go to a place like that?
00:28More sure than ever.
00:30I want friends, real friends, not stalker fans jumping in my car.
00:34Fine.
00:35But you're gonna regret it.
00:43And G-G-Gretel.
00:46Oh, little Gretel just wanted to be loved.
00:49Oh, please, Captain.
00:51Love them.
00:52Love all of them.
00:54They need you.
00:56Mmm.
00:57Yes.
00:58Great job, Emily.
01:00I can see you're gaining your confidence.
01:03You've come so far.
01:05Good job.
01:13Oops.
01:14I ch-ch-ch-tripped you.
01:16All right, that's a wrap on our class today.
01:21But before I have you leave, let me remind you that the auditions for spring production of Chekhov's Uncle Vanya are next Friday.
01:28And it looks like we're gonna have some competition coming from Emily's fabulous monologue today.
01:34All right, you're free to go.
01:35Her?
01:36This girl can't even get through a sentence.
01:38Besides, I'm always the star.
01:39I-I know, girl.
01:40It's crazy that Mr. Harrison even mentioned Emily.
01:41Yikes.
01:42I will not let this girl with a stutter take my starring role.
01:44You won't be needing this.
01:45Leave her alone.
01:46Who even are you?
01:47I'm-I'm...
01:48Isabella.
01:49Uh, just transferred in.
01:50Well, you know, girl.
01:51You better watch your back.
01:52You know, girl.
01:53It's crazy that Mr. Harrison even mentioned Emily.
01:54Yikes.
01:55I will not let this girl with a stutter take my starring role.
02:04You won't be needing this.
02:07Leave her alone.
02:08Who even are you?
02:09I'm-
02:12Isabella.
02:13Uh, just transferred in.
02:14Well knew, girl.
02:15You better watch her back.
02:20Yeah.
02:23Ugh!
02:24Who does this new girl think she is?
02:26Gosh!
02:27What is with today?
02:28You know, maybe it has to do with your little attitude.
02:30Shut up, Santi.
02:32You're the last person I want to take advice from.
02:40Thank you for doing that.
02:42Yeah, of course.
02:43I hate bullies.
02:44Nobody's ever defended me before.
02:46Really?
02:48Well, that changes today.
02:50I'm Emily.
02:51I know.
02:52You were great up there in class today.
02:54You really think so?
03:02You okay?
03:03Yeah.
03:04I'm fine.
03:05Sorry about the noise.
03:06My stupid stepsister knocked over my set.
03:09Stepsister?
03:10Yeah.
03:11Tasha.
03:12Tasha did this.
03:13Wow.
03:14What a shock.
03:15Isabella, this is Santi.
03:17He works on the sets.
03:18He's so handy and very creative.
03:20Nice to meet you.
03:21Maybe I can join you backstage.
03:23You're not gonna audition?
03:24Oh, no.
03:25I'm not much of an actor.
03:29Okay, I'll see you guys later.
03:30Thanks again, Isabella.
03:31You totally saved me.
03:32One sec.
03:33Put in your number.
03:34I can help you rehearse if you want.
03:36I make a great audience.
03:37Yeah, we should hang out later.
03:38Bye, Isabella.
03:39Bye, Santi.
03:40Bye, Teresa.
03:41Wow, someone's got a crush.
03:42Just help me fix this.
03:43An atom is made up of a central nucleus containing protons and neutrons surrounded by electrons.
03:58Emily, please pick up where Tasha left off.
04:05The atomic number is the number of protons in the...
04:25Should I take over?
04:28We're gonna be here all day.
04:30Tasha, enough.
04:31Let her finish the line.
04:33I mean, why should we all have to suffer?
04:35It's only a 45 minute class and she reads like a...
04:39Kindergarten.
04:40Enough.
04:41Do you know Fifi?
04:53She's my absolute favorite actress.
04:55She's just incredible.
04:57I wanna be just like her someday.
04:59Um, I'm not super familiar.
05:01So, what made you get into acting?
05:06It's kind of a silly story.
05:09I wanna know everything.
05:11When I was a little girl, I was too broke to get a ticket to this play.
05:14So, I snuck in.
05:17Scandalous.
05:19I saw this actress performing in The Sound of Music.
05:23She was elegant, witty, confident.
05:27Everything I'd always wanted to be.
05:29There's just something so freeing about being on stage.
05:33It's what I've dreamed of.
05:35Yeah, I...
05:36I know exactly how you feel.
05:38You do?
05:39I mean, I...
05:40I can imagine.
05:42But anyway, I have this stutter when I get nervous.
05:45That's why Tasha is always d... d... d...
05:48doubting me.
05:50Sometimes, I'm just not sure I really have what it takes, you know?
05:54Actually, I think Tasha's jealous of you.
05:57Because you're so talented.
06:00Really.
06:01Remember, Emily.
06:02Fear kills more dreams than failure ever will.
06:05Your only limitations are the ones you put on yourself.
06:09What?
06:14Instead of texting, you should be rehearsing for your audition.
06:17If you want to follow in my footsteps and be on Broadway someday, you have to put the work in now.
06:27I know you have it in you to be a star, just like I was.
06:32Well...
06:33Where's your script?
06:39Well, I wanted to hang out with Keely tonight.
06:42I got you in with Miss Erickson.
06:46The best acting teacher.
06:49Money can buy.
06:50You can't miss this.
06:52People would kill for a chance like this.
06:57I know you have it in you, Tasha.
06:59Okay.
07:13What's wrong with you?
07:16Acting class.
07:17Okay, why don't you just tell your mom you don't want to go?
07:20Yeah, right?
07:21She would never listen.
07:22I have to be just like her.
07:25I just wish it wasn't so much work.
07:27Like, who has the time?
07:30Of course it's work, Tasha.
07:31And, um, I wanted to ask if, um, you're gonna keep acting.
07:35Can you at least, um, be a little nicer to me, please?
07:39And, uh, Emily, that was really cool what you did today.
07:45Let me think about it.
07:48No.
07:50Loser.
07:51I-I know how hard you've been working, Emily.
08:06And I believe you should consider auditioning for the lead.
08:09Thank you, Mr. Harrison.
08:10I'll think about it.
08:11All right.
08:15Ow!
08:16Did you not hear what I said yesterday?
08:18Stay away from my role.
08:20Or did you forget that you s-s-s-stutter?
08:25I'm sure everyone would love to see you bomb on stage.
08:29But I'm actually trying to save you the humiliation.
08:32Okay?
08:37Are you even gonna try to say something back?
08:40Or do you need your emotional support, nerd Isabella?
08:43You just dented my hair!
09:05You okay?
09:06I heard some girls say you ran in here crying.
09:09Well, what if Tasha is right?
09:11I can't be an actress s-s-s with a stutter.
09:15She's not right.
09:24Miss, you were amazing up there.
09:26I-I loved it.
09:29Sorry, ma'am.
09:30We've got complaints about this girl sneaking into the theater.
09:32Oh, no, please.
09:33She's my guest.
09:35Sorry about that.
09:39I-I want to be just like you someday.
09:44But I stutter when I'm nervous.
09:49It's okay.
09:50We all get nervous sometimes.
09:52Even me.
09:54It's just...
09:55Sometimes...
09:57We all just need that one little thing
10:00that'll remind us just how capable we are.
10:02And all those worries will melt away.
10:08Emily?
10:09Hello?
10:11You're going to be okay.
10:13Don't let the bullies get to you.
10:15Thank you, Isabella.
10:17For being such a good friend to me.
10:19I've never had a friend like you.
10:20Listen.
10:21I need your help.
10:22I cannot let Emily get that part.
10:23Maybe we can, like, sabotage her audition or something?
10:27Ideas.
10:28I'm not helping you.
10:29I'm your step-brother, not your employee.
10:30Besides, Emily's...
10:31Emily's a great actress.
10:32Practically deserves that role.
10:33As if?
10:34The girl can barely get through a line without stuttering.
10:35Come on, please.
10:36No, Tasha.
10:37And if you go through with it, I will tell your mom.
10:38As if she'd care.
10:39The only thing she cares about.
10:40I can't let Emily get that part.
10:41I can't let Emily get that part.
10:42Maybe we can, like, sabotage her audition or something?
10:45Ideas.
10:46I'm not helping you.
10:47I'm your step-brother, not your employee.
10:48Besides, Emily's...
10:49Emily's a great actress.
10:50Practically deserves that role.
10:51As if?
10:52The girl can barely get through a line without stuttering.
10:55Come on, please.
10:56No, Tasha.
10:57And if you go through with it, I will tell your mom.
11:01As if she'd care.
11:02The only thing she cares about is if I get that part.
11:04I don't want anything to do with your stupid schemes.
11:07Leave me out of it.
11:09Besides, why would you?
11:10I want help from a loser, anyway.
11:12Right.
11:13Bye.
11:20Maybe I can come by your place today?
11:28No.
11:29Sorry.
11:30Uh, my parents don't let me have guests over.
11:32Oh.
11:33Well, I'm always talking about my acting stuff.
11:35I'd love to know more about the mysterious Isabella.
11:37Tell me all your secrets.
11:39You know, I, uh, I have, like, a ton of homework, and I think I see my ride over there.
11:45So, talk tomorrow?
11:46Sure.
11:47Oh, nice ride.
11:48So, Tasha, are you ready for your audition?
12:00Uh...
12:01Why don't you perform some of your lines for us?
12:04Uh, uh, yeah.
12:06Uh, let's...
12:07Let's see what I can remember off the top of my head.
12:10Um...
12:12Uh...
12:15Actually, uh, can we do this tomorrow?
12:20I have spent so much money on those lessons, and you're not even off book!
12:26I'm sorry.
12:27I've just been so busy with school stuff.
12:28Yeah, bullying the competition.
12:30What was that?
12:31Nothing.
12:32Um, he's just excited to see me perform.
12:39Auditions are tomorrow.
12:40There has to be something we can do.
12:42Uh, like rehearse?
12:43No.
12:45To sabotage the competition.
12:49Look over there.
12:50She's practicing.
12:53She's always touching that tacky necklace.
12:57You're right.
12:59Oh, little Gretel just wanted to be loved.
13:03So...
13:05What?
13:11I'm so proud of you.
13:12You've come so far and are better than ever.
13:14You got this.
13:15I'm so nervous.
13:17What if I start to stutter?
13:19What if I start to stutter again?
13:20Don't worry about that.
13:21You've rehearsed so much, you can recite these lines in your sleep.
13:26Hey.
13:28Break a leg.
13:29You're gonna do great.
13:30Thanks, Santi.
13:32Santi, Isabella.
13:33We need you back here to work on this backdrop.
13:36I've gotta go, but I'll be rooting for you.
13:39For everything.
13:41You just can't believe it.
13:42And auditions are on five.
13:44What are you going to do?
13:45Watch this.
13:51Hi, Emily.
13:52Just wanted to wish you luck out there.
13:55R...
13:56Really?
13:58Of course.
13:59You're fantastic.
14:01I brought this for you.
14:04It fits your character perfectly.
14:06Wow, Tasha.
14:07I love it.
14:09Really.
14:10I...
14:11thought you hated me.
14:12Oh, stop.
14:13That was just silly little banter.
14:14You're perfect.
14:16Hey, good luck today.
14:17Thanks.
14:18You too.
14:20You have never known what it is to be happy.
14:24I thought you hated me.
14:25Oh, stop.
14:26That was just silly little banter.
14:29You're perfect.
14:32Hey, good luck today.
14:33Thanks.
14:34You too.
14:45You have never known what it is to be happy.
14:48But wait, Uncle Vanya.
14:50Wait.
14:51We shall rest.
14:52We shall rest.
14:52We shall rest.
14:54All right.
14:55Thank you, Tasha.
14:57Bravo.
14:58Next, we'll have Emily.
15:08Our life will be as peaceful and gentle and sweet as a caress.
15:16I have faith.
15:18I have faith.
15:19Faith.
15:20No, no, no.
15:38No, no, no.
15:38You have never known what it is to be happy.
15:49But wait, Uncle Vanya, wait.
15:52We shall rest.
15:55We shall rest.
15:58We shall rest.
15:59We shall rest.
16:01Wow.
16:04The emotion.
16:06That was incredible.
16:07That was the best portrayal of Sonya I've ever seen.
16:14Why would you do that?
16:15You have no idea what this necklace means to me.
16:18I told you.
16:19That role is mine.
16:21Emily, you killed it.
16:36That was the best I've ever seen you.
16:38What?
16:39Tasha ruined it for me.
16:40I bombed.
16:41And look, my necklace.
16:43Tasha broke it.
16:45We can fix the necklace.
16:47But that performance?
16:49Mr. Harrison is still raving.
16:51Emily, you're going to get the part.
16:54Really?
16:55Yeah, you did it.
16:57Did you see the look on her face?
17:00That girl is finished.
17:02I can't believe you did that.
17:03Did you really break it into a billion pieces?
17:07Tasha, what did you do?
17:09What had to be done to secure my spot?
17:13I told you.
17:15Well, your plan didn't work.
17:17Mr. Harrison thought her tears were part of the act.
17:19I mean, he told the whole class Emily's monologue was the best he had seen.
17:23He's choosing her.
17:24I've been meaning to support the dramatic arts here at Bookside, especially being an actress myself.
17:43I know the importance of a quality theater arts education.
17:51Of course, I would hope Mr. Harrison would award the hardest working actress, my daughter, Tasha, with the lead role in the spring play.
18:06Actually, I have already cast, but I can assure you that Tasha will be getting an amazing secondary part.
18:17Mr. Harrison, I'm sure you understand that this money can provide some very well-needed resources for your students.
18:29We can invest in more after-school programs, the playwriting curriculum, new textbooks.
18:53How could this happen? Mr. Harrison said you were the best.
18:58I guess I wasn't.
18:59No, this has to be some kind of mistake.
19:02Uh, it's not a mistake.
19:05That part went to the best actress.
19:08Me.
19:11I told you.
19:13A girl with a stutter would never get that part.
19:17Don't listen to her.
19:18You just better make sure you attend all your acting lessons.
19:28I gave a lot of money for you to get that part.
19:31I know, Mom.
19:32I will.
19:33What?
19:34Why would you do that?
19:35She donated to the drama department so I can get the role.
19:38It's your sister's dream, Santi.
19:41Why wouldn't I help?
19:42No, Mary.
19:43It is not her dream.
19:46Tasha is the school bully who stole that part from a girl with a stutter who's trying her best.
19:53You know, Emily was supposed to be Mr. Harrison's first choice.
19:57I mean, come on.
19:57She works harder than anybody else.
19:59Tasha just wants to make her life miserable.
20:02Shut up, Santi.
20:03Is this true?
20:04Yes.
20:04I didn't realize that's what was going on.
20:09You know what?
20:11I'm not dealing with this.
20:28Emily, what are you doing?
20:30I'm giving up.
20:32Tasha was right.
20:33A girl like me shouldn't be an actress.
20:34You can't just give up on your dreams because of what other people say.
20:38You love to act.
20:39I know you're my best friend and you're just being nice.
20:42But it's okay, Isabella.
20:44You don't have to pretend.
20:45I know you have what it takes.
20:47How could you know?
20:48You said you're not an actor.
20:50You work with Santi backstage.
20:56What's going on?
20:57What are we doing in here?
21:00You're scaring me.
21:04You're Fifi?
21:20You're Fifi?
21:21Sorry, I didn't tell you.
21:22Wait.
21:22My best friend is a movie star?
21:27I'm like obsessed with you.
21:28I've seen all of your movies.
21:30I can explain.
21:31Wait.
21:32Why?
21:33Why are you here at Bookside?
21:35You see, I was doing well professionally.
21:42I was always working.
21:44Commercials, movies, press conferences.
21:47I played high school roles so many times and was preparing for a new one.
21:51But I had never actually experienced high school for myself.
21:56And deep down, all I wanted was to feel like a normal teenager.
22:01And maybe even make a friend who didn't use me for social media clout or money.
22:09So I enrolled in Bookside.
22:12And I met you.
22:13And you were so sweet and authentic.
22:15And you became my first real best friend.
22:18So when I say I know you have what it takes to act, I'm telling you the truth.
22:24You are so talented, Emily.
22:27But more importantly, you are kind and uniquely yourself.
22:32It's not always easy being an actress, but I know you.
22:35And I know you have what it takes.
22:39That means the world to me.
22:41Especially coming from you.
22:43Gosh, I can't believe this.
22:45Is that, I mean, Fifi?
22:47You can call me Fiona.
22:49Thank you, Fiona.
22:54Oh my God.
23:00Thank you all.
23:15And congratulations to the cast and crew of Bookside's production, Uncle Vanya, by Anton Chappie.
23:27Hi.
23:28Sorry.
23:29I have something important to say.
23:31You all know me as Isabella.
23:34But my real name is Fiona.
23:36And you may know me by my stage name, Fifi Martinez.
23:41I decided to secretly attend Bookside High to get the real high school experience I'd always wanted.
24:04And I met some amazing friends, but I also met an unkind and dishonest bully, Tasha.
24:15My friend Emily deserved the lead role.
24:18Tasha's mother, Marie, paid the school to get her that part.
24:22But I'm here to announce that an amazing young talent, Bookside's own Emily Johnson, will be joining me as a co-star in my next movie.
24:33Hard work and dedication will always pay off.
24:38And if I've learned anything in my time here, it's that true friendship means lifting each other up and encouraging each other to reach for the stars.
24:47You're incredible, Fiona.
25:01Thank you so much for believing in me when nobody else did.
25:05I think maybe one other person did.
25:07Hey, congrats.
25:09To both of you.
25:10I mean, come on, a movie?
25:12Now that's amazing.
25:13Maybe we can use you in the prop department.
25:15I've seen your skills firsthand.
25:17Maybe, uh, I can't believe this.
25:19I had no idea who you really were.
25:21I'm actually a huge fan.
