Ms. Johnson: Danielle? May I speak to you alone?
Danielle: Of Course!
Johnson: Danielle you're a great dancer. In fact the best in the class but if your talking doesn't stop I'm throwing you out of dance and Bronx.
Danielle: I understand, I'll keep quiet. Please don't kick me out my mom will kill me.
Johnson: She already knows. Three more interruptions during the next month starting tomorrow and you're out.
Danielle: What? I'll keep quiet. (To audience) It was the hardest month I'd ever been faced with. Two infractions and a week to go. Then once Susan began to talk to me and I said one word back. Quiet. She marked me down for a half. She also told me one more and I'm out. Now i's the last day, February 28.
Johnson: It's your last day, congrats and good luck.
Danielle: (to audience) I did it barely and as the bell rang I said my first word but I got out scott free. Oh thank the lord. Now let's go to the last day of 10th grade.
Johnson: Danielle, honestly in my nine years as a dance teacher, I've never seen some one as dedicated, motivated, and all around as good as you. I'll give you a 100 definitely. I hate to thinking of losing you in two years so much, Not to mention with Danny another star pupil of mine, you could really go places and make a lot, a lot of money.
Danielle: Do you really think so?
Johnson: Yeah the tantalizing twosome, you and Danny, good looks and good dancing.
Danielle: Thanks! That's really very sweet. Maybe we'll look into it. (To audience) Yeah, right.
Danny: I can't believe it! The last day! Danielle, Ms. Johnson said we would make a great dancing team. Want to try it out over the summer vacation?
Danielle: I was planning on working but since I couldn't get a job, why not?
Danny: Cool, I'll call you and we can make arrangements.
Danielle: Ow, ow, ow, ow! (CRACK) You broke my foot bone. (Sit down lights off) (to audience) 2 casts and no more dancing, maybe, unless of course, a miracle. My life long dream shattered because of a stupid suggestion by Danny. An electric wheelchair to the end of the summer and the casts for a month after that and even then I might still need a cast. "2 left foot Danny." You can just imagine the law suit which followed. In fact let's bring you there August 2 of the same year. (Extras on stage on benches.)
