"Don't penalize everyone for my bad judgment." "But since there's no precedent for this, there's nothing in the rule books that forbids it." "It's simply frowned upon, and I suppose we can't disqualify you on those grounds alone." "As defending champions, you are guaranteed a bid to Florida, but know that we'll be watching you." "And don't expect to show up at finals with that routine." "[Announcer] Taking the floor now" "What are you doing ?" "You're wrecking everything built !" "It's not totally her fault." "I hooked up" "This season should have been gravy, okay ?" "I handpicked the squad, I delivered an idiot-proof routine." " Platter, nationals, hello !" " Don't you mean a stolen routine ?" "Oh." "Don't be so naive, Torrance." "Look, the truth is I was a real leader, okay ?" "I did what I had to do to win at nationals, and ever since I handed the reins over to you, you've run my squad into the ground !" "If I made any mistake as a squad leader, it wasn't borrowing cheers." "It was announcing you as my successor." "Uh-uh." "Not cool." "Hey, Tor." "Tor." "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait." "Let me go." "I just wanna get out of here." "Hey, Big Red's a bitch." "We all know that." "Even she knows that." "I don't know what to do here, Aaron." "Look."

"You do ?" "Of course." "Which is why I hate to see you like this, all stressed out." "It's not good for you." "You're a great cheerleader, Tor, and you're cute as hell." "It's just that maybe-- [ Sighs ]" "Maybe... you're just not captain material, and there's nothing wrong with that." "Maybe you should consider letting Courtney and Whitney take over the squad." "They're just like Big Red." "You want me to give up captain ?" "Hey, let them deal with the politics." "You just do what you do best, Tor." "You cheer." "Cheer, Tor." "Okay ?"

"He told us you're turning the squad over to us." "Just because you bit the big one as captain, does not mean we're gonna be super hard on you." "Oh." "We'll treat you as if you... didn't screw us into the ground." "Gee, thanks." "Everyone." "Torrance is not to be harmed." "We've already decided on a course of action." "We're gonna forego nationals this year." " [ Sighs ] - [Whitney] Everyone's already agreed to it." "Uh, except me." "And me !" " Both of you can be replaced." " [Torrance] I can't believe you guys." "The only person who can officially resign the post of captain is the captain, and I'm not going anywhere." "Then we'll have to overthrow you." "Which we will !" "Enough !" "Our whole cheering career, we've staked our reputation on being the best, the most inventive." "Now we finally have a chance to truly be original, and you're all running scared." "[Courtney] She's crazy." "I am not crazy, and I'm not resigning as captain either." " You're gonna have to kill me first." " That can be arranged." "Shut it, Whitney !" "Let her talk !" "Look, I know I've screwed up royally as captain, but I believe in this squad, and know we can bounce back from this." "I'm not saying it's gonna be easy." "It's gonna be hard work." "We need a new routine, something amazing and fresh, and we've got less than three weeks till nationals, but if we can do it, if we can pull this off, then we can really call ourselves original." "Now who's with me ?" "All right !" "Yeah." "Yeah !" "Yeah !" "How 'bout it, girls ?" "It's gonna be hard without you two." "[ Sighs ] Fine." "Sure." "Whatever." "Okay." "Let's do this." "[Torrance] We're gonna devote every waking hour to practice-- before school, in between classes and after school." "Afternoon practices will have to be twice as long." "We've gotta do whatever it takes to be in perfect physical shape." "Yeah." "You can go a little harder." "Yeah, that feels good." "Maybe we should join the squad." "Push." "Oh, yeah." "Fag !" "[Torrance] And since the football team sucks no matter how hard we cheer, we'll use night games to practice too." "But that's not all." "We're gonna study other types of movement, from swing dance... to interpretive dance, ...you grow and you grow and you bloom !" "even mime." "We'll draw inspiration from martial arts, Hah !" "musicals, everything." "You guys know we've got the talent." "We've just gotta work our asses off and trust our instincts-- all of our instincts." "[Loud Rock] [Aluminum Can Clattering]" "Tor !"

"Once again we're the best." "I define best as competing against the best there is out there and beating them." " They have to go." " [ Sighs ]" "It's so unfair."
