00:00:04Wait, wait.
00:00:08Crap.
00:00:11Junior year.
00:00:13New school.
00:00:16And the place where GLOW started.
00:00:45My mom had her moment.
00:00:50And 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.
00:01:00The one Vogue called the rebirth of GLOW.
00:01:03And the silver cuff from her final tour.
00:01:05It was everywhere last year.
00:01:06Plus the boots from the reunion concert.
00:01:08They still trend online.
00:01:10Thanks.
00:01:11But today, I'm doing it my way.
00:01:26First impressions are overrated anyway.
00:01:34You're serious.
00:01:35Dead 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.
00:01:43I don't want anyone knowing who my mom is.
00:01:46Or rolling their eyes and going,
00:01:48Oh, great.
00:01:48Another useless Nepo baby.
00:01:50Hey, you're not useless.
00:01:51You're talented.
00:01:53I want real friends.
00:01:54And real talent.
00:01:57Not people chasing your shadow.
00:02:02This thing's safe?
00:02:04It's a bike, mom.
00:02:05I'll survive.
00:02:07I'll text when I get there.
00:02:09Love you.
00:02:12Love you too.
00:02:15Keep your distance.
00:02:17But don't lose her.
00:02:18Sun's up.
00:02:19It's a little after twelve.
00:02:23Make breakfast for myself.
00:02:26Leave the work for someone else.
00:02:29On this perfect day.
00:02:32Nothing's standing in my way.
00:02:35On this perfect day.
00:02:41Did you hear?
00:02:43The original Glow Leader's kid is transferring here.
00:02:45Funny how nobody knows what she looks like.
00:02:47No way.
00:02:48Claire Carter's daughter?
00:02:49If that's true,
00:02:50I'm getting on her good side immediately.
00:02:52And that's exactly why I can't let anyone know.
00:02:59Wow.
00:03:00The 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.
00:03:08Found it.
00:03:09Turns out a stinky little cockroach snucked in.
00:03:11Is this the new girl?
00:03:13She looks so average.
00:03:14How 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?
00:03:31Excuse me?
00:03:35You dare talk back?
00:03:37Someone needs to teach this pest a proper lesson.
00:03:46Oops.
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!
00:04:12It looks like you really treasure these cheap little scribbles
00:04:15that wouldn't even buy you a burger.
00:04:19No!
00:04:39Wait, there's more to come.
00:04:42Bitch.
00:04:51Relax, it'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.
00:05:14Thanks.
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.
00:05:29Oh my god.
00:05:31Oh my god.
00:05:32Oh my god.
00:05:33Oh my god.
00:05:45That's her!
00:05:47Westridge High, ready for your new glow leader?
00:06:03Look at all.
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.
00:06:18Of 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.
00:06:42Wow.
00:06:43Bold choice.
00:06:44Is this off-duty janitor chic?
00:06:51The 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.
00:07:07Oh, and if you're standing next to me, act like it.
00:07:17Sure.
00:07:23I could end this show right now.
00:07:25But then what?
00:07:26Spend my life playing a role everyone already wrote for me?
00:07:29Fine, Mia Carter.
00:07:31Let's see how long you can sing someone else's song.
00:07:41Hey.
00:07:42Quick announcement.
00:07:44I'm Mia Carter.
00:07:45Yes, 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.
00:07:54Swears the air changed when Claire hit that note.
00:07:56And her solo career?
00:07:58Legend.
00:07:59I don't want special treatment.
00:08:00I just want real talent.
00:08:02So I'm rebooting Glow.
00:08:08Talent showcase is coming.
00:08:10And Glow doesn't compete.
00:08:12Glow wins.
00:08:13Main vocals?
00:08:15Lead dancers.
00:08:16Rappers?
00:08:17If 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, they're probably fooming
00:08:26at the mouth with jealousy.
00:08:27It's fine.
00:08:28Some people probably walked in here dreaming about a Cinderella glow-up before school even
00:08:33started.
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.
00:08:41So gracious, so charismatic.
00:08:43Oh, really?
00:08:44I'm curious.
00:08:45How exactly are we supposed to prove that?
00:08:47Oh, and I'm hosting a little get-together tonight.
00:08:51Some of you will be invited.
00:08:55No clearance wreck 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.
00:09:12Totally.
00:09:14Cool.
00:09:15Why 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.
00:09:34They're your future group.
00:09:36I mean, you are rebuilding Glow.
00:09:38What better place to choose your girls?
00:09:45Fine.
00:09:47I'll make a call.
00:09:52Can't wait to see how you pull it off.
00:09:58Come on.
00:10:00Come on.
00:10:02Mia?
00:10:03Sweetheart?
00:10:04I'm working.
00:10:05You're at the Carter place, right?
00:10:07Yes, but...
00:10:07I 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.
00:10:12They 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.
00:10:22Are they what I can do?
00:10:24Thank you, Mom.
00:10:28Thank you, Mom.
00:10:42If she's building a fake glow, I'm not watching from the back row.
00:10:46All 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 heart is inside.
00:11:18I look up at you.
00:11:21Back up at best.
00:11:27Nice 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.
00:11:46We all drink this to get stage ready.
00:11:49You want to see how the real world works?
00:11:51Here.
00:11:51Try some.
00:11:59What's this?
00:12:00I feel awful.
00:12:02Poops.
00:12:03I forgot.
00:12:03I accidentally put a little pepper spray to that.
00:12:07You all right?
00:12:17Oh, my God.
00:12:20Is she bleeding?
00:12:22Do you need a break?
00:12:23You 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.
00:12:36But look at you.
00:12:37Can'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?
00:12:49I just don't want to smell your broke-ass stench.
00:12:52Even if you're standing right under the spotlight, you still don't deserve it.
00:12:56And you do?
00:12:57Please.
00:12:58From where I'm standing, you're just a mediocre actress who studied rich girls by watching them
00:13:03through 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.
00:13:29Up, up, up, up, up.
00:13:30Turn the silence into gold.
00:13:32Up, up, up, up, up.
00:13:33Yes, they try to drown the music.
00:13:39Sing it louder.
00:13:41Let it show.
00:13:45Got a smile in the corner of the room.
00:13:46Now the whole world turning when we boom.
00:13:48Every 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 change the game.
00:13:59We are the fire.
00:14:01Rising 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.
00:14:16Holy shit.
00:14:29Ava!
00:14:31Cute recovery.
00:14:32But auditions aren't about tricks.
00:14:35Neither is sabotage.
00:14:37Watch 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?
00:14:53Are you out of your mind?
00:14:55Face by face, it hurts.
00:14:57If you ever try me again,
00:14:59I'll make you look way worse than this.
00:15:06Wait, you rap?
00:15:07Sometimes, when I rap,
00:15:09I don't really stutter.
00:15:11Why?
00:15:11Guess my brain can't trip over rhythm.
00:15:14That's a superpower!
00:15:15You ever thought about the showcase?
00:15:20Wow.
00:15:21This place is basically a graveyard.
00:15:25No way.
00:15:27That bracelet is real.
00:15:28And there's only one.
00:15:33Funny.
00:15:34Some things don't belong where they end up.
00:15:36Don't touch me!
00:15:37Hey, give that back!
00:15:40Why so nervous?
00:15:41You 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 knock-off she scored online.
00:15:59Your mom?
00:16:00The glow bracelet is one of one.
00:16:04And I'm the only person who owns it.
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
00:16:32to the arts program.
00:16:34You can fool the students.
00:16:35But 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.
00:17:14Now please join me in welcoming the Carter family's daughter.
00:17:20Sit.
00:17:21Don'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.
00:17:47And this school has always supported art and artists and 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 my 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.
00:18:43Come 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
00:19:10it out that door.
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.
00:19:19Ina, 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
00:20:07They tried to quiet my voice
00:20:13They tried to quiet my voice
00:20:24What's happening?
00:20:29Seriously?
00:20:40Everybody out! Move! Now!
00:20:54That was you on the board, right?
00:20:56Depends. You're here to thank me or blame me?
00:20:58Thanks. The near-public humiliation could have been worse.
00:21:05You're Ava, right?
00:21:08Yeah. Ava Carr. Just Ava.
00:21:11Ethan Reyes. Music club. Vintage case. My dad's. He taught me on it. And for the record, that voice you've
00:21:20got? Yeah. That's not normal. Good? Not normal?
00:21:24Scary good. It didn't really matter. I still didn't get to finish.
00:21:39Finish it at the talent showcase then. Come on, you had a moment in there. Whatever that was, it felt
00:21:45like magic. You don't get to walk away from that.
00:21:50You say that like it's easy. It's not. You need people who can keep up. You thinking solo?
00:21:56I was thinking team. Now I'm thinking that might have been optimistic. Teams are chaos. That's kind of the point.
00:22:03When it works, it hits harder than anything you can do alone.
00:22:08Lexi!
00:22:10Alright. Music club room's open after school. In case you decide optimism isn't dead yet.
00:22:16Noted.
00:22:23I saw you and Ethan. You know he won the talent showcase last year, right?
00:22:29That makes sense. Speaking of that, you were amazing in there. I should have had your bub back. Relax, Lexi.
00:22:37Real rappers don't just perform on demand.
00:22:50I'm here.
00:22:54Lexi!
00:22:58Homework done. Essay done. Sing it. Just 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 and you want to be on a stage?
00:23:14Mrs. Chan?
00:23:15Oh.
00:23:16Hi.
00:23:17Sorry.
00:23:18She just...
00:23:19lives in a fantasy.
00:23:23Actually...
00:23:23She's really good.
00:23:26Think about the showcase, Lexi.
00:23:28I'm serious.
00:23:39You need people who can keep up.
00:23:41You need people who can keep up.
00:23:59First off, we want to thank Mia Carter for generously offering her home for today's preliminary round.
00:24:18All right.
00:24:19Final round.
00:24:20Competition's tight today.
00:24:22So 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 advances first.
00:24:33First match-up.
00:24:35Oh.
00:24:36Ava!
00:24:40And...
00:24:41Mia Carter!
00:24:51Wow.
00:24:52That's poetic, isn't it?
00:25:15Yeah, that's cool.
00:25:16Oh no, I'm sorry.
00:25:19That's alright.
00:25:20Oh, I'm sorry.
00:25:20No.
00:25:20Ok, she's actually good.
00:25:21Ava!
00:25:22Oh no!
00:25:23Oh no, I'm sorry!
00:25:23But dynamic waves can't be confined in fragile glass
00:25:28A silent tremor waiting for the storm to pass
00:25:31No artificial icon in the cow I glow
00:25:34From the deepest dark, the hidden rivers start to flow
00:25:38I climbed the peak, inherited the throne
00:25:41But concrete towers fall and winds are blown
00:25:45I weave the rhythm spinning out of control
00:25:48I strip the noise and repossess the soul
00:25:53To the road of the wild
00:25:58I am breaking of the track
00:26:15First one moving on, Ava
00:26:20What the hell?
00:26:25Yes!
00:26:34You're running the bridge
00:26:38It was good
00:26:42Good?
00:26:51What about your choreography for me?
00:26:53You call that good too?
00:26:55That 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
00:27:06Back up 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 ape
00:27:22Then maybe don't start blaming everyone else
00:27:24Then maybe don't start blaming everyone else
00:27:24Then maybe don't start blaming everyone else
00:27:55Mia
00:27:56Baby, you 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
00:28:25Donut
00:28:27Donut
00:28:29Donut
00:28:34Donut
00:28:40Donut
00:28:43Brooke, if this is about earlier, save it.
00:28:47I'm not in the mood to be inspirational.
00:28:50It'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 without making it obvious.
00:29:02You notice that?
00:29:03Hard not to notice.
00:29:09I think this is yours.
00:29:12Where did you...
00:29:13Mia 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.
00:29:21It 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?
00:29:40I'm pretty sure I still can.
00:29:43Here.
00:29:49What's this for?
00:29:50Lyrics.
00:29:51Or complaints.
00:29:53Same thing, honestly.
00:29:54That's a lot.
00:29:57Good.
00:29:58Start somewhere.
00:29:59It doesn't have to be pretty.
00:30:16Too loud.
00:30:17Too much.
00:30:19Not enough.
00:30:31Mama talks fast, whole house, house too loud.
00:30:34Say it nice, sit straight.
00:30:35Don't stand out in a crowd.
00:30:37Don't write that.
00:30:38Don't wear that.
00:30:38Don't dream that big.
00:30:39Keep your head down.
00:30:40Girl, they make it a thing.
00:30:42Wrap?
00:30:42Wrap 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.
00:30:54They handed me scripts, but I'm burning the lines.
00:30:56I'm done reading signals and following signs.
00:30:57I'm stepping out from the place where I swore it's one of the rhythms.
00:30:59Say it raw, say it raw.
00:31:01Say it anyway.
00:31:15Yeah, she's the one.
00:31:22No more barely survive, no more keeping it low.
00:31:25I've got the momentum, just watch how I go.
00:31:27This isn't a whisper, this isn't a win.
00:31:29I'm filling the room till it's over the brim.
00:31:34I'm hot, 24-7.
00:31:36I slip in my Louboutin, so I wake up sassy.
00:31:40My martini's 31, and no not to test me.
00:31:44All my worst behavior, but at least I'm with my besties.
00:31:48I'm the baddest.
00:31:49She spelled anxiety wrong.
00:31:50Yeah, because I was literally having it.
00:31:52I look good, 24-7, 24-7.
00:31:56All y'all 10, I'm at 11.
00:31:59I'm at 11.
00:32:06If you can't keep up, leave.
00:32:09Yeah.
00:32:10It's a breaker, kill the speakers.
00:32:12Still the bass runs deep beneath us.
00:32:14Try the dummy, try the adrenaline, what's the dart?
00:32:15Just rip the shade around us.
00:32:18Life's good, death.
00:32:18Hey, Othema, sound complete.
00:32:20Fuck Othema.
00:32:21You could split the plug tonight.
00:32:23Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
00:32:25I've been quiet, I've been patient.
00:32:26I've been holding my tongue.
00:32:27But the silence got heavy and the quiet got done.
00:32:28You can dim the light, you can break the noise.
00:32:30But you can't kill the voice.
00:32:31It's been fighting all along.
00:32:32They don't know where this killed the lie.
00:32:34We just can't wait, not be raised.
00:32:36Just gross and afraid.
00:32:38You call it cab, call it gay.
00:32:40Try not to look like stage decor.
00:32:45You dance fine, but that's all it is.
00:32:48You practice looking talented, I actually am.
00:32:50So when you miss a count, don't dress it up as choreography.
00:32:54It's just you being replaceable.
00:32:56You know what?
00:32:57I'm not your punching bag, I'm done.
00:33:03Excuse me?
00:33:04Without me, you're nothing.
00:33:05Oh, sweetheart, I'm a lot of things.
00:33:09None of them require your permission.
00:33:14Where are you going?
00:33:21I'm joining Ava's team.
00:33:23And I never miss a count.
00:33:41You call it rude, I call it bums.
00:33:44You call it fantasy, I call it what's forever.
00:33:50I say much, but I feel everything.
00:33:54The fire inside me ain't as faint as it seems.
00:33:58You think I'm weak, cause I don't fall on my hold out loud.
00:34:05What the?
00:34:11Must be me again.
00:34:26You little bitch!
00:34:28You little bitch!
00:34:29You little bitch!
00:34:34You little bitch!
00:34:46I hear you all.
00:34:47I feel threatened to be me.
00:34:49You little bitch!
00:34:50You little bitch!
00:34:52I know you're not.
00:34:54I feel like I'm not.
00:34:55You little bitch!
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, and I honestly can't
00:36:08believe 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.
00:36:27A weird one.
00:36:28The best kind.
00:36:30Like Blackpin.
00:36:30Even better.
00:36:32Like Glow.
00:36:41This isn't over.
00:36:50Yo, what the hell?
00:36:53You gotta see this.
00:36:54Eva tries way too hard.
00:36:56Like, relax.
00:36:57You're not a tortured artist.
00:36:59And Lexi, please, writing sad little lyrics doesn't make you deep.
00:37:03She barely talks.
00:37:05What's she gonna 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 Eva's team.
00:37:13Switch up is crazy.
00:37:14Crazy how fast people switch sides.
00:37:29Let's see how loyal you feel now.
00:37:40That's her.
00:37:41No, that's Brooke.
00:37:44Pull things on my feed.
00:38:01Ava?
00:38:04Oh.
00:38:10Okay.
00:38:11Let's just run at 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?
00:38:49Fine.
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!
00:39:04No!
00:39:05No!
00:39:05No!
00:39:05No!
00:39:06Are you kidding me right now?
00:39:20Oh my god
00:39:25That was limited edition product
00:39:28Brooke, stop, you're making this work
00:39:34Me?
00:39:37That's not what I meant
00:39:38Say it again
00:39:40You think I haven't spent all day
00:39:42Being punished for who I used to be?
00:39:45Brooke, no
00:39:47You know what, forget it
00:39:48At least Mia was honest about hating me
00:39:51Brooke, wait
00:40:06Rough day?
00:40:09Internet love's a villain
00:40:13Did 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
00:40:39Lyrics don't get you into college
00:40:43Your grades dropped
00:40:44And now you're on the internet
00:40:48It's not like that
00:40:49Maybe it's time you stop pretending you're some kind of artist
00:41:00Fake friends

00:42:34Oh, my God.
00:43:05Oh, my God.
00:43:21Oh, my God.
00:43:37Oh, my God.
00:44:00That sounded serious.
00:44:01Do I need to bring snacks for this breakdown?
00:44:10You know something funny?
00:44:12What?
00:44:14Every band I liked growing up broke up.
00:44:17Very comforting.
00:44:19The good ones?
00:44:20They broke up like six times.
00:44:24Turns out drama is part of the brand.
00:44:27We didn't even make it to a single.
00:44:30Maybe the point wasn't the group.
00:44:32Maybe the point was you.
00:44:39That's very inspirational.
00:44:41I'm serious.
00:45:08I'm serious.
00:45:22Wow, future pop legend.
00:45:47I think we just invented a new genre.
00:45:49It's called Bad Decisions in B Minor.
00:46:08Any time.
00:46:44Come on, Ethan.
00:46:45We'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.
00:47:16Well, do you have any idea what time it is?
00:47:26Well, 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.
00:47:38And yet, tragically, always right.
00:47:42I'm very happy to see that smile back.
00:47:45You've been carrying your shoulders around your ears all week.
00:47:48So 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.
00:48:00Mom.
00:48:01I messed it up.
00:48:02Oh, baby.
00:48:07And that's the part where everything exploded.
00:48:10Honey.
00:48:10People don't trust you because you're perfect.
00:48:13They trust you because you tell them the truth before the world does it for you.
00:48:18Come on.
00:48:19What?
00:48:20Let's play half and half.
00:48:22Oh.
00:48:23Yes.
00:48:25Come on.
00:48:27One round.
00:48:32Mom.
00:48:41When the world gets loud, I turn the music louder.
00:48:49If the lights go out, we sing in the dark.
00:48:56Okay.
00:48:57That was good.
00:48:58If they try to silence you, I'll tell the truth first.
00:49:09There she is.
00:49:11Mom.
00:49:12I think I know what to do.
00:49:14Can't wait to see the next generation of glow.
00:49:17Shh.
00:49:18Shh.
00:49:18Shh.
00:49:19Shh.
00:49:19Shh.
00:49:20Shh.
00:49:21Shh.
00:49:21Shh.
00:49:22Shh.
00:49:22Shh.
00:49:24Shh.
00:49:35Can I help you, sweetheart?
00:49:45Can I help you, sweetheart?
00:49:47No, ma'am.
00:49:48I mean, yes, ma'am.
00:49:49I mean, hi.
00:49:51We were looking for not this.
00:49:55Guys, you made it.
00:49:58Come in before one of you faints on my front steps.
00:50:04I should have told you.
00:50:06I didn't because once people hear Claire Carter, they stop hearing anything else.
00:50:16And because if I'd exposed Mia earlier, Donna would have been destroyed with her.
00:50:22Donna?
00:50:22Donna, please, Miss Carter, don't say anything yet.
00:50:29You've always been so good to me, but she literally stole my name.
00:50:33I know.
00:50:34But I'm in the middle of a custody fight.
00:50:37If 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?
00:50:45No, just give me a little time, please.
00:50:53Okay, that's annoyingly decent of you.
00:50:56I know.
00:50:58I should have talked to you.
00:50:59Yeah, you should have.
00:51:02But I should have talked first.
00:51:03So, just to be clear, you're the actual Claire Carter daughter and Mia is your housekeeper's kid.
00:51:11Oh, my God.
00:51:12I've been taking orders from that little bitch this whole time?
00:51:15No offense to Donna.
00:51:17But that girl wearing last season's Chanel like it's front row at Paris Fashion World?
00:51:22That should have been our first clue.
00:51:29So what do we do now?
00:51:30We beat her first.
00:51:31And then we make sure she can't lie her way out of it.
00:51:34I promised Donna some time.
00:51:35But Mia, she's perfectly capable of exposing herself.
00:51:38Actually, I have an idea.
00:51:50Welcome to the finals.
00:51:52Tonight, the best act wins.
00:52:02Just remember the spin.
00:52:04Two counts, drop the mic.
00:52:08Spin.
00:52:09Two counts, hit the floor, roll up.
00:52:13I'll pass it back to you.
00:52:15Obviously.
00:52:16Break a leg.
00:52:18Preferably not literally.
00:52:21Next up, Mia's glow.
00:52:25Or Mia featuring everyone else.
00:52:30Mia!
00:52:33Oh, my God.
00:52:35She's so perfect.
00:52:55I walk through the crowd with my head held high.
00:52:59None of these folks can reach my sky.
00:53:02Your tiny struggles with my precious time.
00:53:05All of your worst stays far behind.
00:53:09You gaze up below, stuck down below.
00:53:12I rule the show, nowhere to go.
00:53:15Still chasing shadows where my life once shown.
00:53:18Your feeble dreams will never know.
00:53:22I stand alone upon the throne.
00:53:25Every victory is mine.
00:53:27Bro, she's not even singing.
00:53:28Is that playback?
00:53:37Get off the stage.
00:53:38It's 2026.
00:53:39We are not doing the Ashley Simpkins thing again.
00:53:48And that is what we call live music.
00:53:57Mia's high notes?
00:53:59Total disaster.
00:54:02So, to guarantee the finals, she bought insurance.
00:54:07Whenever the song hits the high part, she switches to the track.
00:54:10All she has to do is lip sync.
00:54:17So, allow me to introduce our special guest.
00:54:25Where is he?
00:54:27Okay.
00:54:27Well, that was exciting.
00:54:29I especially love the part where the microphone did most of the singing.
00:54:33Let's reset the stage a little.
00:54:35Our final act tonight, blow.
00:55:01What are you doing, Mia Carter?
00:55:13Claire?
00:55:14Claire?
00:55:18You didn't notice the console lock?
00:55:25Hey.
00:55:26I think we can all agree tonight has already been very dramatic.
00:55:31So, let's fix that.
00:55:33Here's some real music.
00:55:40You know what's funny?
00:55:41You remind me a lot of myself at your age.
00:55:45But my own daughter, Ava...
00:55:48She has done everything she can not to end up like me.
00:55:51Maybe she's smarter than both of us.
00:55:54You could have been anything.
00:55:56Why settle for fake?
00:56:01Time to end up like me.
00:56:03And then I thought we got better.
00:56:16It's the case.
00:56:17There is a destination.
00:56:17This one who knows.
00:56:22Let's go now.
00:56:32Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
00:56:47When the room goes silent
00:56:50And the whole world stares
00:56:53Every broken moment
00:56:57Turns into a flare
00:57:01Turn the noise into a melody
00:57:03Turn the silence into gold
00:57:07Every voice becomes a harmony
00:57:10When we're brave enough to hold
00:57:14Every step becomes a story
00:57:16Every spark begins to glow
00:57:17If they try to drown the music
00:57:19Sing it louder, let it show
00:57:25Started small in the corner of the room
00:57:28Now the whole world turning when we boom
00:57:30Now it's from Giana, it's your boy, it's your time
00:57:31I'm not hiding, now it's my time
00:57:36Who says we can listen to the rhythm
00:57:38No more whispers, no more shame
00:57:40We don't follow, we change the game
00:57:41Glow in the dark, watch it grow
00:57:44Three hearts beating still to show
00:57:47We are the light through the stormy weather
00:57:51We are the stars that we found together
00:57:54Yeah, we ignite, turn night into day
00:57:57Sing it louder, we're here to stay
00:58:01We are the stars that we found together
00:58:09Hey!
00:58:14Hey!
00:58:16Hey!
00:58:18Hey!
00:58:19Hey!
00:58:20Hey!
00:58:21Hey!
00:58:21Hey!
00:58:21Hey!
00:58:23Hey!
00:58:25Hey!
00:58:30When I was young, they tried to cry in my voice
00:58:39When I was young, they tried to cry in my voice
00:58:46But every girl who sings tonight gets to make that choice
00:58:53Turn the noise into a melody, turn the silence into gold
00:59:01Every heart, when I'm ready enough to hold
00:59:08Every step becomes a story, every spark begins to glow
00:59:15Every heart becomes a lie, when I'm ready enough to hold
00:59:22Every step becomes a story, every spark begins to glow
00:59:28If they try to drown the music, sing it loud
00:59:35Let it show
00:59:52Every step becomes a story, every spark begins to glow
01:00:29Well, hello, Ava Carter
01:00:37You know now?
01:00:40Please
01:00:41I knew way before the rest of the school caught up
01:00:44How?
01:00:45The first time you sang in the rehearsal room
01:00:48Even the drum kit started vibrating
01:00:50I figured either the building was haunted
01:00:52Or Claire Kerper's daughter had a voice that bends the room
01:00:55That line ever worked before?
01:00:57You tell me
01:00:59So now what?
01:01:00Now?
01:01:01Now I think I stopped pretending I came out here to congratulate you
01:01:05Good
01:01:15Guess glow's not done with you yet
01:01:17Maybe not
01:01:18Come on
01:01:19If you're gonna watch me become a legend
01:01:21You should probably do it up close
01:01:23Lead the way, Ava Carter
01:01:30Did you see the finals last night?
01:01:32Are you kidding?
01:01:32It's literally everywhere
01:01:33Guys, check this out
01:01:37Who is Lexi Chan?
01:01:38Look, Ava!
01:01:39Claire Carter and her daughter on the scene
01:01:40Glow better drop this song now
01:01:42Glow already signed with the record label?
01:01:44What?
01:01:44No way!
01:01:45No way!
01:01:46No way!
01:01:47Glow is just getting started
01:01:54People used to talk about my mom's moment
01:01:56Like it was some kind of myth
01:01:59For the longest time
01:02:00I thought I had to wait for mine
01:02:03But turns out
01:02:07You don't wait for a moment
01:02:14You make one
01:02:22And sometimes
01:02:27You don't make it alone
01:02:45You don't even know
01:02:46What?
01:02:46Because I'm back
01:02:46Let아
01:02:46You
