00:00:16And the place where GLOW started
00:00:46My mom had her moment, and I've been waiting for mine.
00:00:54Good morning, Ms. Carter.
00:00:56These are today's outfit options.
00:00:58Your mother's Paris showcase jacket, the one Vogue called the Rebirth of GLOW,
00:01:03and the silver cuff from her final tour.
00:01:05It was everywhere last year.
00:01:07Plus the boots from the reunion concert, they still trend online.
00:01:11Thanks, but today, I'm doing it my way.
00:01:27First impressions are overrated anyway.
00:01:34You're serious.
00:01:36Dead serious.
00:01:37You're going alone?
00:01:38Yeah.
00:01:39No driver?
00:01:40No security?
00:01:41That's the whole point.
00:01:44I don't want anyone knowing who my mom is, or rolling their eyes and going,
00:01:48oh great, another useless nepho baby.
00:01:50Hey, you're not useless.
00:01:52You're talented.
00:01:53I want real friends.
00:01:55And real talent.
00:01:57Not people chasing your shadow.
00:02:02This thing's safe?
00:02:05It's a bike, mom.
00:02:06I'll survive.
00:02:08I'll text when I get there.
00:02:09Love you.
00:02:12Love you too.
00:02:15Keep your distance, but don't lose her.
00:02:18Sun's up.
00:02:20It's a little after twelve.
00:02:23Make breakfast for myself.
00:02:26Leave the world for someone else.
00:02:29On this perfect day.
00:02:33Nothing's standing in my way.
00:02:36On this perfect day.
00:02:42Did you hear?
00:02:43The original glow leader's kid is transferring here.
00:02:46Funny how nobody knows what she looks like.
00:02:48No way.
00:02:48Claire Carter's daughter?
00:02:50If that's true, I'm getting on her good side immediately.
00:02:53And that's exactly why I can't let anyone know.
00:03:00Wow.
00:03:01The admission standards here have really tanked, huh?
00:03:04Do you smell that?
00:03:05What's that stench this early in the morning?
00:03:07So gross.
00:03:09Found it.
00:03:09Turns out a stinky little cockroach snucked in.
00:03:12Is this the new girl?
00:03:13She looks so average.
00:03:15How did she even get in?
00:03:16I heard Claire Carter's daughter is transferring today.
00:03:19If she sees our school letting people like this in,
00:03:22she's going to be so disappointed.
00:03:27Do you always talk like that?
00:03:29Or only when you feel insecure?
00:03:32Excuse me?
00:03:35You dare talk back?
00:03:37Someone needs to teach this pest a proper lesson!
00:03:47Oops.
00:03:48Was that important?
00:04:00Thrust store losers shouldn't carry art.
00:04:04People like you don't get to talk about art!
00:04:12Looks like you really treasure these cheap little scribbles
00:04:15that wouldn't even buy you a burger.
00:04:19No!
00:04:40Wait, there's more to come.
00:04:42Bitch.
00:04:52Relax.
00:04:53It's hydration.
00:04:56Careful, Tiffany.
00:04:57Original thoughts might melt in the rain.
00:05:02Relax, Thrift Queen.
00:05:03This will help wash off that stench for everyone's sake.
00:05:15Thanks.
00:05:16It's no, nothing.
00:05:17They're salvageable.
00:05:20Maybe sit this one out, Lexi.
00:05:22Public speaking isn't your brand.
00:05:30Oh my god.
00:05:31Oh my god.
00:05:45That's her!
00:05:47Westridge High.
00:05:48Ready for your new flow, leader?
00:06:02Oh my god.
00:06:05You're, you're her, right?
00:06:07I'm Brooke.
00:06:08This is Tiffany.
00:06:10We've been waiting for the Carter girl forever.
00:06:12I maxed out every card I had just to look like this for five minutes.
00:06:16And now they think I'm Claire Carter's daughter?
00:06:18Perfect.
00:06:19Of course I am.
00:06:20Guess the rumors finally caught up.
00:06:22Excuse me.
00:06:25But you don't really look like a Carter.
00:06:33And you are?
00:06:35Facilities forgot to badge you?
00:06:37Don't bother.
00:06:38She wouldn't recognize Talon if it slapped her in the face.
00:06:48The bell saved your ass, bitch.
00:06:53I'll deal with you later.
00:06:55And just remember, standing next to you would get me tainted by your stench.
00:07:04Ladies, formation.
00:07:08Oh, and...
00:07:09If you're standing next to me, act like it.
00:07:17Sure.
00:07:24I could end this show right now.
00:07:26But then what?
00:07:27Spend my life playing a role everyone already wrote for me?
00:07:30Fine, Mia Carter.
00:07:31Let's see how long you can sing someone else's song.
00:07:41Hey, quick announcement.
00:07:44I'm Mia Carter.
00:07:46Yes, that Carter.
00:07:49Glow literally dominated every award show.
00:07:51Claire even went to space for real.
00:07:53My cousin saw Glow live.
00:07:55Swears the air changed when Claire hit that note.
00:07:57And her solo career?
00:07:58Legend.
00:07:59I don't want special treatment.
00:08:01I just want real talent.
00:08:02So I'm rebooting Glow.
00:08:09Talent showcase is coming.
00:08:10And Glow doesn't compete.
00:08:12Glow wins.
00:08:14Main vocals?
00:08:15Lead dancers.
00:08:17Rappers?
00:08:18If you're not elite, don't waste my time.
00:08:21What's her problem?
00:08:23People like that, rats in the gutter, seeing someone this dazzling,
00:08:25they're probably fooming at the mouth with jealousy.
00:08:27It's fine.
00:08:28Some people probably walked in here dreaming about a Cinderella glow-up
00:08:32before school even started.
00:08:34But reality checks are brutal.
00:08:36Around here, we only play by real talent.
00:08:39Look at Claire Carter's daughter.
00:08:42So gracious, so charismatic.
00:08:43Oh, really?
00:08:45I'm curious.
00:08:45How exactly are we supposed to prove that?
00:08:48Oh, and I'm hosting a little get-together tonight.
00:08:52Some of you will be invited.
00:08:55No clearance-rec entries.
00:08:57You'll scare them away with your filth.
00:08:59Yeah.
00:09:00This isn't a charity open mic for beggars.
00:09:04I heard the Carter Mansion has a private music room.
00:09:07Custom piano.
00:09:08Glow lyrics carved into the lid.
00:09:11Yeah.
00:09:13Totally.
00:09:14Cool.
00:09:14Why don't we hold the auditions there?
00:09:19That would be iconic!
00:09:21The hell?
00:09:23How can I break into a mansion I don't belong in?
00:09:28My house isn't exactly open to the public.
00:09:33These aren't the public.
00:09:35They're your future group.
00:09:36I mean, you are rebuilding Glow.
00:09:39What better place to choose your girls?
00:09:46I'm fine.
00:09:47I'll make a call.
00:09:52Can't wait to see how you pull it off.
00:09:59Come on.
00:10:00Come on.
00:10:02Mia?
00:10:04Sweetheart?
00:10:04I'm working.
00:10:05You're at the Carter place, right?
00:10:07Yes, but I need you to get me inside.
00:10:09I'm hosting something.
00:10:10Mia, I clean floors.
00:10:11That's it.
00:10:12Mia.
00:10:13They already paid for your tuition.
00:10:14They've done enough.
00:10:15I'm done being embarrassed.
00:10:17They have everything.
00:10:19One night won't even register.
00:10:23I'll see what I can do.
00:10:24Thank you, Mom.
00:10:42If she's building a fake glow, I'm not watching from the back row.
00:10:47All right.
00:10:48If you can't survive this open rehearsal, don't embarrass yourself at my house.
00:10:54Turn the noise into a melody when we're brave enough to hold.
00:11:01They said I rap like a robot, so call me rap-bop.
00:11:04But for me to rap like a computer must be in my jeans.
00:11:09I've been training since I was six.
00:11:12I've been freezing outside.
00:11:14I put my skin tight.
00:11:16My gut is inside.
00:11:18I look up at you.
00:11:21Back up at best.
00:11:28Nice spin.
00:11:29You don't belong in back up.
00:11:40To be fair, I'll still let you try out.
00:11:43Don't waste it.
00:11:45Hey, Hick.
00:11:47We all drink this to get stage ready.
00:11:49You want to see how the real world works?
00:11:51Here.
00:11:52Try some.
00:11:59What's this?
00:12:00I feel awful.
00:12:02Poops?
00:12:03I forgot.
00:12:04I accidentally put a little pepper spray to that.
00:12:07You all right?
00:12:18Oh, my God.
00:12:20Is she bleeding?
00:12:23Do you need a break?
00:12:24You know, most of us were raised in studios.
00:12:26You don't get to stroll in here acting like you didn't come straight out of a yard sale.
00:12:34Too bad I was actually going to give you a chance.
00:12:37But look at you.
00:12:38Can't even sing nor dance now.
00:12:40Try not to cry about it, okay?
00:12:43Looks like you're so scared of me.
00:12:45Went through all that trouble just to pull that stunt.
00:12:48Scared of trash like you?
00:12:50I just don't want to smell your broke-ass stench.
00:12:53Even if you're standing right under the spotlight, you still don't deserve it.
00:12:57And you do?
00:12:58Please.
00:12:58From where I'm standing, you're just a mediocre actress who studied rich girls by watching them through tinted glass.
00:13:12When the room goes silent and the whole world stares, every broken moment turns into a flare.
00:13:26Turn the noise into a melody.
00:13:30Turn the silence into gold.
00:13:33If they try to drown the music, sing it louder.
00:13:41Let it show.
00:13:45Start a smile in the corner of the room.
00:13:47Now the whole world turning when we boom.
00:13:49Every voice becomes a harmony.
00:13:52No more whispers, no more shame.
00:13:54When we're brave enough to hold, we don't follow.
00:13:57We take just the game.
00:13:59We are the fire rising from the cold.
00:14:03Writing our names and stories untold.
00:14:07Hear the echo, feel the thunder.
00:14:08We break the chain.
00:14:10Yeah, we break the chain.
00:14:12We don't just survive.
00:14:14Survive.
00:14:17Holy shit.
00:14:30Ava!
00:14:31Cute recovery.
00:14:33But auditions aren't about tricks.
00:14:35Neither is sabotage.
00:14:38Watch your mouth.
00:14:41What are you...
00:14:50Weren't you just telling me not to cry?
00:14:52Guess who's about to now.
00:14:54Are you out of your mind?
00:14:55Bitch, my face, it hurts.
00:14:58If you ever try me again, I'll make you look way worse than this.
00:15:06Wait, you rap?
00:15:08Sometimes, when I rap, I don't really stutter.
00:15:11Why?
00:15:12Guess my brain can't trip over rhythm.
00:15:14That's a superpower!
00:15:16You ever thought about the showcase?
00:15:20Wow.
00:15:21This place is basically a graveyard.
00:15:26No way.
00:15:27That bracelet is real.
00:15:29And there's only one.
00:15:33Funny.
00:15:34Some things don't belong where they end up.
00:15:36Don't touch me!
00:15:38Hey, give that back!
00:15:40Why so nervous?
00:15:42You steal it or something?
00:15:43Exactly!
00:15:44She's a total fraud.
00:15:45A thief.
00:15:46Someone needs to teach her a lesson.
00:15:48That was designed by my mom.
00:15:49She gave it to me!
00:15:51Is this bitch actually connected to Claire Carter?
00:15:54No way.
00:15:55Look at her.
00:15:56She's broke as hell.
00:15:57Definitely some knockoffs she scored online.
00:16:00Your mom?
00:16:01The glow bracelet is one of one.
00:16:04And I'm the only person who owns it.
00:16:06Ah!
00:16:10Get that bitch.
00:16:16I'll let everyone to see how shameless this bitch is.
00:16:26Students, please proceed to the auditorium for a special assembly celebrating a legacy contribution to the arts program.
00:16:34You can fool the students, but Principal Grant knows me.
00:16:37This ends at the assembly.
00:17:02That's not the Principal Grant?
00:17:03Before we begin, reminder, Talent Showcase sign-ups are closing soon.
00:17:09Today, we recognize a family whose legacy continues to support music at this school.
00:17:15Now please join me in welcoming the Carter family's daughter.
00:17:20Sit.
00:17:20Don't make this weird.
00:17:33That's the glow bracelet, so she must be the Carter girl.
00:17:37Wow.
00:17:39This is so special.
00:17:43As Claire Carter's daughter, being here just feels really full circle, and this school has always supported art, and artists,
00:17:52and artistic people.
00:17:55And I just think that's really beautiful.
00:17:58Thank you, Ms. Carter.
00:18:01That was very heartfelt.
00:18:05Where's Principal Grant?
00:18:09Unfortunately, Principal Grant won't be joining us today.
00:18:12He was hit by a golf cart during a campus tour this morning.
00:18:16He's stable, but will be out for the rest of the semester.
00:18:22That's awful.
00:18:23Please let him know.
00:18:24My mom and I will definitely visit him.
00:18:26We always make time for people who support the arts.
00:18:30Sing for us!
00:18:34Excuse me?
00:18:35Everyone says Claire Carter didn't just sing.
00:18:37She shifted the room.
00:18:39If you're her daughter, you should have inherited that.
00:18:42This isn't a performance.
00:18:44Come on!
00:18:45Give your mommy's fans something.
00:18:47Glow's biggest hit.
00:18:48Sing the bridge.
00:18:49The hardest part.
00:18:52Yeah!
00:18:53Sing it!
00:18:54Let's see the magic.
00:18:56I don't think this is appropriate.
00:18:59Or you're not a Carter at all.
00:19:03Enough!
00:19:04Sit down and apologize to Ms. Carter right now, or I'll have you expelled before you make it out that
00:19:10door.
00:19:12This was insane.
00:19:13She was trying to erase me, take my place, get me thrown out.
00:19:16I had to stop her.
00:19:19Tina, if you can't do it...
00:19:31Then let me.
00:19:36Because she's not Ms. Carter.
00:19:42I'm the one who was supposed to be standing here.
00:19:57When I was young
00:20:05When I was young
00:20:07He tried to quiet my voice
00:20:14They tried to quiet my voice
00:20:24Holy, what's happening?
00:20:28Seriously?
00:20:39Everybody out, move now!
00:20:54That was you on the board, right?
00:20:56Depends, you're here to thank me or blame me?
00:20:59Thanks
00:21:00The near public humiliation could have been worse
00:21:06You're Ava, right?
00:21:08Yeah, Ava Carr
00:21:10Just Ava
00:21:11Ethan Reyes
00:21:13Music Club
00:21:15Vintage Case
00:21:16My dad's
00:21:17He taught me on it
00:21:18And for the record, that voice you've got?
00:21:21Yeah, that's not normal
00:21:22Good, not normal?
00:21:24Scary good
00:21:26Didn't really matter
00:21:27I still didn't get to finish
00:21:39Finish it at the talent showcase then
00:21:41Come on, you had a moment in there
00:21:43Whatever that was
00:21:44It felt like magic
00:21:45You don't get to walk away from that
00:21:50You say that like it's easy
00:21:52It's not
00:21:53You need people who can keep up
00:21:54You thinking solo?
00:21:56I was thinking team
00:21:58Now I'm thinking that might have been optimistic
00:22:00Teams are chaos
00:22:01That's kind of the point
00:22:03When it works
00:22:04It hits harder than anything you can do alone
00:22:08Lexi!
00:22:10Alright
00:22:10Music Club room's open after school
00:22:13In case you decide optimism isn't dead yet
00:22:16Noted
00:22:23I saw you and Ethan
00:22:26You know he won the talent show
00:22:27Showcase last year, right?
00:22:29That makes sense
00:22:30Speaking of that
00:22:32You were amazing in there
00:22:33I should have had your bub back
00:22:35Relax, Lexi
00:22:36Real rappers don't just perform on demand
00:22:58Homework done
00:22:58Essay done
00:23:00Sing it
00:23:00Just beat, beat, beat
00:23:02Fun
00:23:04Who do you think you are, Jay-Z?
00:23:06I was just
00:23:07See?
00:23:08You can't even finish one sentence
00:23:10And you want to be on a stage?
00:23:14Mrs. Chan
00:23:15Oh
00:23:16Hi
00:23:17Sorry
00:23:18She just
00:23:18Lives in a fantasy
00:23:22Actually
00:23:23She's really good
00:23:26Think about the showcase, Lexi
00:23:28I'm serious
00:23:39We need people who can keep up
00:23:59First off
00:24:00We want to thank Mia Carter
00:24:02For generously offering her home
00:24:04For today's preliminary round
00:24:18All right
00:24:19Final round
00:24:20Competition's tight today
00:24:21So we're switching formats
00:24:24Head to head
00:24:26Random draw
00:24:27Same song
00:24:28Same track
00:24:29No do-over
00:24:29Whoever owns the room
00:24:31Advances
00:24:31First
00:24:32First matchup
00:24:34Ava
00:24:39And
00:24:41Mia Carter
00:24:50Wow
00:24:51That's poetic
00:24:53Isn't it?
00:25:09A perfect grid
00:25:11Each separate calculated line
00:25:14The gears collide
00:25:15Breaking the glass
00:25:16Reflections shine
00:25:17I am the blueprint of the standard
00:25:19Okay, she's actually good
00:25:21All this meal
00:25:22Catching every drop of fire
00:25:24But dynamic ways
00:25:26Can't be confining
00:25:27Fragile glass
00:25:28A silent tremor
00:25:29Waiting for the storm to pass
00:25:31No artificial icon
00:25:33Then make how I glow
00:25:34From the deepest dark
00:25:36The hidden rivers start to flow
00:25:38I climb the peak
00:25:40Inherited the throne
00:25:42But concrete towers fall
00:25:43When winds are blown
00:25:45I wave the rhythm
00:25:47Spinning out of control
00:25:48I strip the noise
00:25:50And repossess the soul
00:25:53To the root of the wild
00:25:58I am breaking all the trials
00:26:14First one moving on
00:26:16Ava
00:26:20What the hell?
00:26:25Yes
00:26:34You're running the bridge
00:26:39It was good
00:26:42Good?
00:26:51What about your choreography for me?
00:26:53You call that good too?
00:26:54That spin you gave me slowed the tempo
00:26:57It was
00:26:58It was timed with the
00:27:01Don't
00:27:01Explain failure to me
00:27:03You had one job
00:27:04Guess I should have remembered
00:27:06Backup dancers
00:27:07Stay back up for a reason
00:27:11That's funny
00:27:12Because from where I was standing
00:27:14Her choreography was the best part of your set
00:27:17You won one round
00:27:20Don't start believing your own hate
00:27:22Then maybe don't start blaming everyone else
00:27:36Congratulations to everyone advancing
00:27:39Next round changes format
00:27:41No more solo slots
00:27:43You'll be competing in teams
00:27:45Build wisely
00:27:55Mia
00:27:56Baby
00:27:56Baby
00:27:57You made it
00:27:58What are you doing?
00:28:00I just wanted to say
00:28:02Not here
00:28:03I'm proud of you
00:28:09Stop
00:28:10Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:13You're embarrassing me
00:28:14Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:21Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:32Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:32Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:32Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:32Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:32Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:33Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:35Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:35Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:36Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:36Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:36Don't talk to me like this in public
00:28:43Brooke
00:28:45If this is about earlier, save it
00:28:47I'm not in the mood to be inspirational
00:28:49It's not
00:28:51Your musicality is better than Mia's timing deserves
00:28:54And your transitions
00:28:56Clean
00:28:58You cover her sloppier counts
00:29:00Without making it obvious
00:29:02You notice that?
00:29:03Hard not to notice
00:29:08I think this is yours
00:29:12Where did you
00:29:14Mia dropped it when she changed
00:29:15I didn't exactly feel like giving it back to her
00:29:18Don't make this a thing
00:29:20Too late, it kind of already is
00:29:30Hey
00:29:31Look who survived pre-lars
00:29:34Barely
00:29:37You know that means you're officially not allowed to hide in the back anymore, right?
00:29:40Pretty sure I still can
00:29:42Here
00:29:49What's this for?
00:29:50Lyrics
00:29:51Or complaints
00:29:52Same thing, honestly
00:29:54That's a lot
00:29:56Good
00:29:57Start somewhere
00:29:58It doesn't have to be pretty
00:30:15Too loud
00:30:17Too much
00:30:18Not enough
00:30:30Mama talks fast
00:30:32Whole house
00:30:33House too loud
00:30:34Say it nice
00:30:34Sit straight
00:30:35Don't stand out in a crowd
00:30:36Don't write that
00:30:37Don't wear that
00:30:38Don't dream that big
00:30:39Keep your head down
00:30:40Girl, they make it a thing
00:30:41Rap?
00:30:42Rap for what?
00:30:45Every word I swallow turns electric in my ribs
00:30:47Every time I shut down, something sharper still lives
00:30:50You call it rude, I call it breath
00:30:51You call it fantasy, I call it what's left
00:30:53They handed me scripts, but I'm burning the lines
00:30:55I'm done reading signals and following signs
00:30:57I'm stepping out from the place where I'm forth with a rhythm
00:30:59Say it rough, say it rough
00:31:01Say it anyway
00:31:14Yeah, she's the one
00:31:21No more barely survive
00:31:23No more keeping it low
00:31:25I've got the momentum
00:31:26Just watch how I go
00:31:27This isn't a whisper
00:31:28This isn't a win
00:31:29I'm filling the room
00:31:30Till it's over the brand
00:31:33I'm hot
00:31:3424-7
00:31:35I slip in my Louis Vuitton
00:31:37So I wake up sexy
00:31:39My martini's 31
00:31:41And no need to test me
00:31:43All my worst behavior
00:31:45But at least I'm with my besties
00:31:48I'm the baddest
00:31:48She spelled anxiety rhyme
00:31:50Yeah, cause I was literally having it
00:31:51I look good
00:31:5324-7
00:31:5424-7
00:31:56All y'all turns
00:31:57I'm at 11
00:31:58I'm at 11
00:32:06If you can't keep up, leave
00:32:18If you can't keep up, leave
00:32:22Yeah
00:32:24I've been quiet
00:32:25I've been patient
00:32:25I've been holding my tongue
00:32:26But the silence got heavy
00:32:27And the quiet got done
00:32:28You can dim the light
00:32:29You can break the noise
00:32:30But you can't kill the voice
00:32:31It's been fighting all along
00:32:32But I don't know where this
00:32:33Killed the lie
00:32:34We were quiet
00:32:35Not be raised
00:32:40Try not to look like stage decor
00:32:45You dance fine
00:32:46But that's all it is
00:32:47You practice looking talented
00:32:49I actually am
00:32:50So when you miss a count
00:32:51Don't dress it up as choreography
00:32:53It's just you being replaceable
00:32:55You know what?
00:32:57I'm not your punching bag
00:32:58I'm done
00:33:03Excuse me?
00:33:04Without me, you're nothing
00:33:05Oh, sweetheart
00:33:07I'm a lot of fans
00:33:09None of them require you to be shot
00:33:13Where are you going?
00:33:21I'm joining Ava's team
00:33:23And I never miss a count
00:33:27I'm not broken
00:33:28I'm open
00:33:29I'm not scared
00:33:30I'm not scared
00:33:31I'm not scared
00:33:31I'm not scared
00:33:32You call it chaos
00:33:33God, I call it fate
00:33:34You can't translate
00:33:35Every word I swallow
00:33:36There's an electric in my ribs
00:33:38Every time I shut down
00:33:39Something sharp
00:33:40But still live
00:33:41You call it rule
00:33:41I call it burn
00:33:44You call it fantasy
00:33:46I call it what you're left
00:33:50I say much
00:33:52But I feel everything
00:33:54The fire inside me
00:33:55Ain't as faint as it seems
00:33:58You think I'm weak
00:33:59Cause I don't fall
00:34:00My hold out loud
00:34:06What the?
00:34:11Must be me again
00:34:26You little bitch
00:34:28You little bitch
00:34:30I don't know what you're right
00:34:32You little bitch
00:34:37I don't know what you're right
00:34:39I don't know what you're right
00:34:39I don't know what you're right
00:34:39I don't know what you're right
00:34:39I don't know what you're right
00:34:45I don't know what you're right
00:34:51I don't know what you're right
00:35:02Seriously?
00:35:53Is that part of the show?
00:36:04I think that was the first time I ever freestyled on an actual stage.
00:36:07And I honestly can't believe I just pulled that off.
00:36:11Lexi, you just said that without stuttering.
00:36:14Look at that. Stage magic.
00:36:24Guess we're a group now.
00:36:26Yeah, a weird one.
00:36:28The best kind.
00:36:29Like Blackpin.
00:36:31Even better.
00:36:32Like Glow.
00:36:42This isn't over.
00:36:51Ava tries way too hard.
00:36:56Like, relax.
00:36:57Max, you're not a tortured artist.
00:36:59And Lexi, please, writing sad little lyrics doesn't make you deep.
00:37:04She barely talks.
00:37:06What's she going to do?
00:37:06Whisper people to death?
00:37:09Brooke said what we were all thinking.
00:37:11Not Lexi catching strings.
00:37:12And now she's on Ava.
00:37:13The switch-up is crazy.
00:37:14So she crazy how fast people switch sides.
00:37:29Let's see how loyal you feel now.
00:37:39That's her.
00:37:41No, that's Brooke.
00:37:44Pull things on my feed.
00:38:00Ava.
00:38:04Oh.
00:38:10Okay.
00:38:11Let's just run it once.
00:38:18Too loud in my...
00:38:20My...
00:38:21My...
00:38:22My bad.
00:38:23From the top.
00:38:24I've got this.
00:38:25Seriously?
00:38:26I said I've got it.
00:38:28Do you?
00:38:30Wow.
00:38:31That's rich coming from you.
00:38:33At least I'm not freezing in the middle of rehearsal.
00:38:35At least I'm not talking trash behind my own team's back.
00:38:39You think I don't know how bad that looked?
00:38:43It looked honest.
00:38:44Hey!
00:38:45Stop!
00:38:47You want honest?
00:38:48Fine.
00:38:49I said that way before I ever joined you guys.
00:38:53And now what?
00:38:54I'm supposed to clap because you evolved?
00:38:56God, you make everything sound like a trauma podcast.
00:39:01No!
00:39:03No!
00:39:03No!
00:39:05Are you kidding me right now?
00:39:20Oh my God.
00:39:25That was limited attention, Prada!
00:39:28Brooke, stop!
00:39:29You're making this worse!
00:39:35Me?
00:39:37That's not what I meant.
00:39:38Say it again.
00:39:40You think I haven't spent all day being punished for who I used to be?
00:39:45Brooke!
00:39:46No.
00:39:47You know what?
00:39:47Forget it.
00:39:48At least Mia was honest about hating me.
00:39:51Brooke, wait!
00:40:06Rough day?
00:40:09Internet loves a villain.
00:40:12Did you post it?
00:40:16Does it matter?
00:40:17You were miserable with them anyway.
00:40:22Come back.
00:40:37Lyrics?
00:40:38Lyrics don't get you into college.
00:40:42Your grades dropped.
00:40:44And now you're on the internet.
00:40:47It's not like that.
00:40:49Maybe it's time you stop pretending you're some kind of artist.
00:41:00Fake friends.
00:41:01Switch up, queen.
00:41:02Ava's glow better than rock her.
00:41:03Fake.
00:41:04Fake.
00:41:05Fake.
00:41:05Fake.
00:41:06Fake.
00:41:06Fake.
00:41:06Fake.
00:41:08Fake.
00:41:08Fake.
00:41:21Fake.
00:41:25Fake.
00:41:29Fake.
00:41:35I don't know.
00:42:24We started like a chorus
00:42:27Three voices in the same key
00:42:41Somewhere in the middle
00:42:44The harmony left me
00:43:12Now I'm singing half a song
00:43:17In a hallway full of ghosts
00:43:20Funny how a melody
00:43:24Can disappear the most
00:43:51You look like someone just cancelled Christmas
00:43:55Not Christmas
00:43:56Just my life
00:44:00That sounded serious
00:44:01Do I need to bring snacks for this breakdown?
00:44:09You know something funny?
00:44:12What?
00:44:14Every band I liked growing up broke up
00:44:17Very comforting
00:44:18The good ones
00:44:19They broke up like six times
00:44:23Turns out drama is part of the brand
00:44:27We didn't even make it to a single
00:44:29Maybe the point wasn't the group
00:44:31Maybe the point was you
00:44:39That's very inspirational
00:44:40I'm serious
00:44:59What?
00:45:03Nothing
00:45:04Come on
00:45:06Where?
00:45:08Field therapy
00:45:21Wow
00:45:23Future pop legend
00:45:46I think you just invented a new genre
00:45:48It's called bad decisions in B minor
00:46:06Anytime
00:46:10Anytime
00:46:11You
00:46:12I'm
00:46:23Knowing
00:46:31how
00:46:32I
00:46:32I
00:46:39Ain't
00:46:43Come on, Ethan. We've got to go.
00:46:59Text me when you can't stop replaying that Spider-Man kiss in your head.
00:47:03Too late.
00:47:15Well, do you have any idea what time it is?
00:47:25Well, do you have any idea what time it is?
00:47:29Mom.
00:47:32Because I need to know how long you've been smiling like that.
00:47:36You're impossible.
00:47:37And yet, tragically, always right.
00:47:42I'm very happy to see that smile back.
00:47:44You've been carrying your shoulders around your ears all week.
00:47:47So I'm guessing the boy is not the crisis.
00:47:50Is it the group?
00:47:52That's specific, huh?
00:47:55Ava, I know your face.
00:47:59Mom, I messed it up.
00:48:02Oh, baby.
00:48:06And that's the part where everything exploded.
00:48:08Honey, people don't trust you because you're perfect.
00:48:12They trust you because you tell them the truth before the world does it for you.
00:48:17Come on.
00:48:19What?
00:48:20Let's play half and half.
00:48:22Oh, yes.
00:48:25Come on.
00:48:27One round.
00:48:31Mom.
00:48:41When the world gets loud, I turn the music louder.
00:48:47If the lights go out, we sing in the dark.
00:48:55Okay.
00:48:56That was good.
00:48:58If they try to silence you, I'll tell the truth first.
00:49:09There she is.
00:49:10Mom.
00:49:12I think I know what to do.
00:49:14Can't wait to see the next generation of glow.
00:49:16Shhh.
00:49:18Shh.
00:49:29It's got this.
00:49:30It's got this.
00:49:31It's got this worse.
00:49:32Oh, shit.
00:49:35Can I help you, sweetheart?
00:49:44can i help you sweetheart no ma'am i mean yes ma'am i mean hi we we were looking
00:49:52for not this
00:49:55guys you made it come in before one of you faints on my front steps
00:50:04i should have told you i i didn't because once people hear claire carter they stop hearing anything
00:50:11else and because if i'd exposed mia earlier donna would have been destroyed with her
00:50:23donna please miss carter don't say anything yet you've always been so good to
00:50:30me but she literally stole my name i know but i'm in the middle of a custody fight
00:50:36if this blows up now her abusive father will drag my girl into court and tear me apart with it
00:50:43so you want me to help her keep lying no just give me a little time please
00:50:53okay that's annoyingly decent of you i know i should have talked to you yeah you should have
00:51:02but i should have talked first so just to be clear you're the actual claire carter daughter and mia is
00:51:08your housekeeper's kid oh my god i've been taking orders from that little bitch this whole time
00:51:14no offense to donna but that girl wearing last season's chanel like it's front row at paris
00:51:20fashion word that should have been our first clue
00:51:28so what do we do now we beat her first and then we make sure she can't lie her way
00:51:33out of it
00:51:33i promised donna some time but mia she's perfectly capable of exposing herself
00:51:38actually i have an idea
00:51:50welcome to the finals tonight the best act
00:52:02just remember the spin two counts drop the mic
00:52:08spin two counts hit the floor roll up i'll pass it back to you

00:54:07whenever the song hits the high part
00:54:08she switches to the track

00:55:47she has done everything she can not to end up like me
00:55:50maybe she's smarter than both of us
00:55:54you could have been anything
00:55:56why settle for fake
00:56:23why settle for fake
00:56:47when the room goes silent
00:56:50and the whole world stares
00:56:53every broken moment turns into a flare
00:57:00turn the noise into a melody
00:57:03turn the silence into gold
00:57:06every voice becomes a harmony
00:57:09every voice becomes a harmony
00:57:11when we're brave enough to hold
00:57:13every step becomes a story
00:57:16every spark begins to glow
00:57:17If they try to drown the music, sing it louder, let it show
00:57:24Start it small in the corner of the room
00:57:28Now the whole world's turning when we boom
00:57:29Now it's from Giana, it's your boy, it's your time
00:57:31I'm not hiding, now it's my time
00:57:34Bingo, I will date in the day, take your leg, go to dough
00:57:36Who says we can? Listen to the rhythm
00:57:38No more whispers, no more shame
00:57:39We don't follow, we change the game
00:57:41Blow in the dark, watch it grow
00:57:44Three hearts beating, steal the show
00:57:47We are the light through the stormy weather
00:57:51We are the stars that we found together
00:57:54We ignite, turn night into day
00:57:57Sing it louder, we're here to stay
00:58:08Hey!
00:58:13Hey!
00:58:16Hey!
00:58:18Hey!
00:58:30When I was young, they tried to quiet my voice
00:58:38When I was young, they tried to quiet my voice
00:58:45But every girl who sings tonight gets to make that choice
00:58:52Turn the noise into a melody, turn the silence into gold
00:59:01Every hope, when I'm brave enough to hold
00:59:08Every step becomes a story, every spark begins to glow
00:59:14Every hope becomes a line, when we're brave enough to hold
00:59:21Every step becomes a story, every spark begins to glow
00:59:28If it's right, it's round the music
00:59:32Sing it loud!
00:59:35Let it show!
00:59:42Let it show!
