Don't Go Breaking My Heart The Next Step

Previously on The Next Step...

-Eldon.

-Yeah?

You can just put my stuff there.

Finally, we're actually going on a date.

Maybe he's a little bit cute.

-No!

-Yeah.

-That's...

I'm bothered by them getting along.

I just want to get out of there.

I don't want to see them together at all.

Turns out my injury is worse than I thought it was.

-Is your ankle all right?

-Yeah! Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Yeah?

-It's totally fine.

The way that Emily's treating people is horrible

and we're not going to win regionals with her choreography.

I say we re-choreograph the regionals routine,

make it so good, make it better.

If you guys knew what was good for you,

you wouldn't even be doing this right now.

It was too early to tell Chloe.

We could have just ruined everything by telling her.

-What are we going to do?

-I'm sure she won't tell anyone.

I'm not so sure.

-I mean, I don't know.

-If she tells Emily, we're done.

This is a mistake.

You know what? I'm just going to go

talk to her, tell her not to tell anyone.

I need Chloe to keep my secret because I know that

she's close with the E-Girls, and it's really important that

she doesn't tell them yet.

-You deserve this so much.

-Thank you, guys.

Look, I just want you to keep my secret.

That's all I'm asking for.

I do trust Chloe, but in this situation,

I'm kind of iffy about it.

Well, you know that I've kept your secret.

Michelle's been really good about keeping my secret,

but I know what she's doing is wrong. So...

Do we have to talk about this right now?

Stephanie and Tiffany are right over there.

But you know what we're doing is for the better of the team?

Don't worry about it...

-Hey, Chloe.

-Hey. What's up?

When I see Michelle and Chloe there,

I'm really curious as to why

they stayed back late, especially those two together.

So, what are you guys doing here?

Uh, just rehearsing.

And what are you guys doing here?

Uh, rehearsing.

James and Riley walk in and... we're busted.

I'm freaking out because...

I don't know what Chloe has told them.

They're all helping me. They're all helping me.

-Yup.

-Without us?

I couldn't find you guys. I'm sorry.

I'll definitely ask you next time.

'I do trust Chloe a little bit more now.'

We can maybe get her on our side.

Hey! It's getting late. Everybody head home.

Good idea.

'I really hope Chloe's cover worked.'

We still have a lot of work to do, so we just need

-to get back to rehearsal.

-I don't believe their story at all.

Doesn't make any sense.

So, what did you do last night?

Oh, I just went home, choreographed some new stuff for the routine.

-How about you?

-Uh, nothing. Me and Tiff stayed at the studio

for a while... waiting for a phone call.

-From who?

-Well, long story short,

-I have an agent!

-No!

-Yes!

-Really?

'I'm really excited that Stephanie got an agent.'

The only thing I am a little worried about

is if it interferes with dance,

I'll have to put the hammer down.

The weird thing is, is that when we left

and, like, went to go get our stuff out of our cubbies...

Michelle and Chloe were there.

The situation that I had seen was all too weird

not to let my best friend know.

And James and Riley walked in.

Riley?

-And apparently, they were - what?

-Rehearsing.

Immediately, alarm bells go off in my head.

Riley said she was at a movie last night.

She definitely wasn't watching

-a movie last night.

-Yeah, she was at the studio.

'She told my mom she was going to a movie.'

That means she lied to her.

Something big is going on.

So cool...

No, that was sick, man. That was sick.

-I was working on something this weekend, want to see it?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Hey. Nice.

Show me that B-twist, man.

-Yeah, man.

-Yeah?

-Yeah, yeah.

I'm going to do it in bare feet.

All right.

-Uh! Nice!

-Nice! Nice.

-Yeah, it was a little low, but, like...

-Yeah.

Emily probably would have liked that, though.

How's it going with her?

Oh, we're, like... I feel like we're getting more serious,

but it's like we're keeping it on the DL, you know?

-Yeah?

-No, you're not, man.

-No, we are, though.

So, like, you and Emily, you're legit,

you guys are like a couple?

-Well... No, not right now.

-No, you're not.

-No, that's what I thought.

-'Me and Emily,'

we actually are getting kind of closer.

So when James and West laugh at me,

saying that, I don't know, it's kind of getting annoying.

I would love for Eldon to get a chance with Emily,

but I really don't think he will end up dating her.

-All right.

-Yo, there's your girl.

-Like, oh...

Hey, Emily.

'I don't know, I kind of feel like we are trying

'to keep it on the down-low,

'so she's probably just, you know,'

sticking to the plan.

It's definitely just in his head.

So, you, uh...you weren't at dinner last night.

-No.

-Where were you?

Mom said you, uh, went to a movie?

I know she lied. I'm going to get to the bottom of

what she was doing last night.

I, uh... I went to see the new musical one.

'She's definitely up to something.'

She's snooping, I can tell. I know my sister.

Cos we never talk at the studio.

-You went to see a musical?

-Mm-hmm.

-You hate musicals.

-I love musicals.

'I know for a fact'

that she hates musicals.

Who'd you go with?

Um, I went with Michelle.

Wow, that's great. I didn't know you guys were that close.

-Yeah, well, it's just a movie.

-Yeah?

-Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. So, what movie?

You don't remember the title or any name?

Mmm... You know I have a terrible memory.

'I'm asking Riley so many questions about the movie'

as I'm hoping she'll slip up.

If you're so interested in the movie,

-you should probably just go see it yourself.

-Hm.

-Hm.

'I'm not going to stand there and have her lie to my face any more.'

Rehearsal. Let's go for rehearsal, everyone. Let's go, boys.

'I know my sister, um...

'and I know she's definitely going to question Michelle.'

I got to get to Michelle before she does.

By the way, me and you saw the new musical movie last night

at the Grand Theatre, theatre 12.

-We got popcorn. You liked it, I didn't.

-Sweet.

I got this. No big deal.

One, two, three, four...

Turn out those legs.

Energy from the boys, please!

'I'm just really bored of Emily's routine and I can't wait'

to get out of here and back to Michelle's.

Chloe, this isn't cheerleading. Good job, Tiffany.

Doing Emily's routine feels like going back to baby ballet.

Michelle, those arms!

Stop! Stop. West.

-Woo!

-West!

That's not my choreography. What are you doing?

'I do Michelle's routine while I'm doing Emily's routine'

because I got kind of confused.

He clearly just ruined our cover.

Emily's already suspicious.

She just questioned me about the movie,

so she already knows something's up.

-What was that?

-You know...your choreography

just makes me want to just... just get so amped!

-You know, I just want to...

-Woo!

-..do that.

'I complimented her,'

so she can feel good about that.

My cover was...it was... it was genius.

You want to do that?

Yeah. Yeah.

No. If I wanted that, I would have put it in my dance.

Understood?

You know what? You're so right.

That's why you're Dance Captain.

He doesn't have to remind me. I know I'm the Dance Captain.

That's why I'm going to figure out what's really going on.

From the top! Everyone can thank West.

I need to talk to Michelle about the movie she went to with Riley.

You see, if their stories don't coincide, I know I have them both.

Hi!

-Hi.

-What are you doing?

-Math.

The answer to that is A...

just so you know.

-What's up?

-Oh, nothing. Well,

I heard you went to a movie with Riley yesterday.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I was just coming to see what you thought about it.

'I do think Emily's'

on to me. Actually, I know she's on to me.

'Otherwise, she wouldn't be taking an interest in my personal life.'

Why does it matter?

Oh, you know, just taking an interest in my sister

and her little friends' lives.

When Michelle refuses to answer my questions, it kind of tells me

that maybe she doesn't want to slip up,

maybe there is something she's hiding.

You've never taken an interest in my life, so...

why start now?

I'll see you tomorrow.

'When Michelle walks away, my mind is blank.

'That has never happened to me before.'

I'm Emily. I walk away from people, people don't walk away from me.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One and two, three, four... Stop!

Chloe, you're a beat behind,

and I need more energy from everyone in this room.

-Five, six...

-Hey, you know what? Why don't we take a 15-minute break?

-Sounds good!

-Down.

-Done.

Five... Five minutes, that's it.

Everyone seems pretty stressed out. So I decide to use this time

'to find out what my status is with Emily.

'I need to prove once and for all what my relationship is.'

-Hey, Emily.

-Hi.

So, how's it going?

Oh, I was actually just thinking how great this shirt looks on you.

Thank you.

What is going on over there?

'I'm being super nice to Eldon because there's been a lot of

'suspicious behaviour in the studio. If there is something going on'

and Eldon knows what's up,

I know exactly how to make him talk.

I'm a little bit worried. I mean, everyone's really tired.

Do you know if there's something going on?

No.

-You know you can trust me, right?

-Yeah.

'I feel pretty good about myself because, you know,'

-we're getting closer.

-You'd tell me if there was, right?

Oh, I would tell you, come on.

-All right, OK...

-Oh, no, no.

-Oh, my gosh.

They're not hugging right now. They're not!

'As I see Eldon hug Emily, I'm really upset. I care about him'

and I know that he's making a big mistake falling for her.

All right. OK.

-'Emily hugging me, I mean, that's...'

-OK.

It's fantastic! It's great.

'It's a dream come true. We'll be dating in a week.'

-OK.

-Yeah.

-All right.

-That was a big hug.

-Yeah. That's me.

-OK. I'm going to practise.

-Oh. OK, yeah, yeah.

-Let's go make fun of her.

-Oh, my gosh. OK, now, now.

What was that about?

Nothing, we're just... Nothing.

You liked it.

Mind your business, Chloe.

'Honestly, I am so fed up with how Emily's been treating me.

'She yells at me all the time.'

I thought by now she'd accept me, but she hasn't,

and I know the situation isn't going to get any better.

-Oh, thanks.

-There you go.

Peach-grape! How did you know I like peach-grape?

-I guessed.

-Oh... Good guess.

'I know Eldon likes peach-grape'

juice because I've noticed before, obviously.

How are things with you and Emily?

Oh, so good!

So good?

Yeah. So, with four Os.

OK, then.

I'm really worried about Eldon.

He thinks he has a relationship with Emily, but it's all in his head.

He's going to get hurt.

Do you know if she really likes you?

How do you know?

'Why is everyone doubting my relationship with Emily?'

I'm really frustrated right now.

Yeah, because it's different this time.

She's rejected you, like, how many times?

Yeah, but this time, she isn't rejecting me.

I'm not making a mistake. I know what I'm doing.

'I wish that everyone could see that Emily and I'

are real, so that I could stop being

the laughing stock of the whole studio.

Five, six, seven, eight...

'Right now, we're working on'

my routine for regionals,

the one we are going to present to Kate.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

One, two...

'Chloe shows up and I don't know if she's coming to tell me'

that she's told Emily. I'm confused.

What are you doing here?

Emily's reign as Queen Bee is over.

-You want to join?

-Oh, my gosh!

-Oh, my gosh!

-I knew it!

I thought I wanted to be in the E-Girls, but now I know

what it's all about, I'm so over it.

When Chloe says she wants to join the dance,

I'm surprised, but I love it because she's a phenomenal dancer.

This is huge. I mean, we have an E-Girl on our side.

-So, you're serious?

-Yeah.

-Yeah?

-Good choice.

-Guys, this routine's going to be killer!

OK, Daniel, are you ready to do your solo full-out?

-Yep.

-OK.

'It's been really hard'

lately to dance full-out.

'I kind of tweaked my ankle when I landed

'auditioning for the solo part. I don't think I'm really'

pulling the weight as the soloist,

but I hope that no-one's going to notice.

What's wrong with Daniel's dancing is the fact that he's not performing

to the level he did perform earlier on when he got the solo.

Daniel...

just because you got the soloist spot doesn't mean you can slack off.

-You know that, right?

-Yeah.

If I tell everyone why I haven't been dancing my fullest,

they'll take the solo part away

from me and kick me out of A-Troupe.

I don't know what's going on, but you honestly need to fix it.

You know you're replaceable as a soloist, right?

ROMANTIC MUSIC BLARES

'When Eldon enters the room, I don't know what's going on.

'He has cards, there's a boom box,'

I... It looks like some weird '60s movie.

'I know one thing about girls'

and they do like grand gestures.

'I just want everyone to know me and Emily's relationship status.'

MUSIC SKIPS

YODELLING MUSIC BLARES

'On top of the fact that Eldon's embarrassing himself,'

his music stops working.

MUSIC JUMPS

I feel so sorry for him right now.

ROMANTIC MUSIC BLARES

'He's embarrassing me.

'He's coming in here, showing all this emotion'

in front of everyone. He needs to stop.

I really don't think Eldon knows that he's such a fool,

because if he did, he would have stopped trying by now.

Why does he keep pushing?

'He should have just'

picked it up and left.

'Eldon's grand gesture'

is really sweet.

'It's just sad to see that Emily doesn't appreciate it.'

Emily, will you be my girlfriend?

What are you doing?!

Eldon, I will never be your girlfriend.

This is the most embarrassing moment of my life!

'It feels like she...she's taking my heart out'

and throwing it on the floor and stomping on it.

I need to signify that this is over, not only to Eldon, but to the team.

At least I know where we stand.

Rehearsal places, again!

Go!

Right now, I feel like a dork because, I mean,

I did that whole display of affection and everyone...

literally everyone

stood there and laughed at me.

Kind of made me realise that maybe I am a dork.

-Hey, Eldon.

-Oh, hey.

Sorry, I didn't know anyone was going to be in here.

-I can leave if you want.

-No, no, no. Stay, stay. It's OK.

I feel bad for Eldon. After being humiliated

in front of everyone, I mean,

I'm sure he could use a friend right now.

Are you OK? I saw what happened earlier.

-I feel like I'm a dork.

-You're not a dork.

Yeah, well, according to Emily, I am.

Eldon, the things that you did for Emily were great.

Between the cards, between the poem, it was just so romantic.

Really?

If anyone did that for me, I would just melt.

'I thought I was the only one that'

thought it was romantic, but I guess not.

Well, at least you, uh, spelt the cards right.

'I've decided to show Eldon'

my dance because he's upset with Emily, and right now's

'the perfect time.'

Actually...

DOOR OPENS

Come in.

We have something to show you.

I mean, the boom box part, when he kicked it

and the music was, like... uh, uh, uh!

Cos he just couldn't even say anything!

'Sitting here listening to Stephanie and Tiffany rip on Eldon like that

'kind of makes me feel like I was maybe a little harsh.'

He did it in the wrong setting, he did it at the wrong time,

he did it in front of everyone,

but maybe I could have handled it a little differently.

What's your problem?

Nothing. No, I'm just... I'm just listening to you guys talk.

-It's funny.

-It IS funny.

It's the funniest thing I've seen in such a long time.

Speaking of funny, where's Chloe?

-Can you go find her?

-Yeah.

-I really need her.

-OK, yeah.

-This is an emergency.

-Yeah, totally.

'Watching the dance, I mean, the dance is amazing.'

It's so, like, creative.

'I have no idea what this dance is for, I mean...

it's the same music as what Emily's using, so...'

I have no idea what they're planning.

It's kind of hard to read, uh, how he's feeling.

So I'm kind of getting a little scared on which way he will go.

Woo!

-Good job, guys!

-That was good!

-Really good. Good job.

So...what do you think?

Well, that was amazing!

-Thanks.

-But, uh...

..what's it for?

It's for regionals.

Instead of Emily's.

Does... Does she know about it?

No.

'I'm not too sure if Eldon's

'going to join. He's so in love with Emily.'

He's been trying to get her to be his girlfriend for so long,

but at the same time, she did just break his heart.

So...are you in?

Found her!

In Studio B.

Dancing to your music, but not your choreography!

With who?

With Daniel, West, Riley, James, and Michelle.

My spider senses are tingling. I've been Dance Captain

a couple of times now. I know when people

are trying to overthrow me. Do you think I'm going to stand for that?

It's time for me to take Michelle down.
