Exercise is a great way to cure hurt from past lovers while Troy takes a jog thinking about Sharpay and Sharpay is much more of a ritzier jog as she thinks about him.

Gabriella P.O.V

I was really not into this wedding thing because I really don't like Sharpay we were currently at the gym.

'How do you know Troy?' asked Sharpay

I just ignored her

'By any chance, you don't have any interests in him as a man, do you?'

'Gabriella he doesn't look like a good person.'

I finally replied

'Even if he did approach me knowing who I am and what my background is, I don't care. Since I've already experienced Sharpay Evans, what else do I, Gabriella Montez, have to be scared of?'

Sharpay warned me either way the one who will get hurt is me.

Jason P.O.V

I was trying to find out the relationship between Troy and Sharpay so I went to Troy's neighbourhood and pulled out a picture of Sharpay and asked if anyone knew her but they all reacted strangely.

What I didn't not know was one of Zeke's spies were following me and reporting every move I made to Zeke. Zeke wanted to keep the whole situation low and safe, because he loved Sharpay for along and he didn't want to see her hurt.

Meanwhile listening to Jason's every move Zeke was at the Chairman Montez's house helping him in the wheelchair.

'Keegan's mother how is she like?' asked Zeke

'I want to know if she's someone I can trust' replied the chairman

'Sharpay Evans. She's probably different, right? She probably won't betray me, right?' said the chairman.

By the time Gabriella and Sharpay are out of the gym, Sharpay already has a smile plastered on which fades when she sees Troy, who came to pick up Gabriella.

'We decided to meet right after we opened our eyes' said Troy to Sharpay

'Did you wait long?' asked Gabriella

'No. About 2 hours?' told Troy

Troy finally greeted Sharpay, Gabriella rolled her eyes.

Gabriella introduces Sharpay as the person who is marrying her dad.

'Yea I remember her as an anchor woman; I was a fan'

'But, not anymore unfortunately'

Troy then dropped his smile.

But they get interrupted by Chairman Montez

'Who is this man Gabriella?'

'He is someone I am dating'

Chairman Montez invites him to a fancy brunch.

Sharpay looks like she rather be somewhere else same with Zeke. Chairman Montez is interested in Troy because he is the first ever Gabriella introduced as her boyfriend.

Chairman Montez asked Troy about college.

'It's not that I quit. I was expelled.' Troy said

Sharpay was sweating like a whore in church.

Chairman Montez got angry at Gabriella for not knowing this man's past.

'I only care about the present and future together.'

'And what about you, Dad? The person you decided to marry, even at a younger age than myself, wanted to be your woman when you already had a wife and a child. The person who seduced you. There is only a five year age difference between her and your daughter. How much do you know about the hidden two-faced that she is, and how much do you really know about her past?'

Chairman Montez pays by throwing a glass of water at her but Troy stops him just him time.

Chairman Montez then left the room with Zeke and Gabriella chased after them. Which left Troy and Sharpay alone in the room.

'What do you think I'm doing?' asked Troy

'Be practical instead. Ask for money! You sell your body for money anyway, don't you?' said Sharpay

'I don't know how glamorous, splendid, and great your wold is. Bu that's not where you belong. A person like your shouldn't be there.' He claims that she's livin in the very world she bitterly despised during her days as a reporter, which is exactly why she can't stay.

'If you can't come down from there, I'll go up there. I'll go up and bring you down. I'll kill your world. Pack your bags and wait until I come get you.' Said Troy

'Fine is where I belong the dumpster you live in'

'No, even that place would be an honor for you'

Troy left after that.

Meanwhile Gabriella was waiting outside for Troy.

'It was fun while it last' said Troy

'It may not be twelve hours since we've known each other, but it feels like we've been dating for twelve months. I just fell for you, even though it's embarrassing and hurts my pride.' Said Gabriella

Gabriella offers her hand for a goodbye handshake. But Troy instead proposes a goodbye kiss, maybe in a different setting. He claims it's felt like a hundred years since he met a woman he likes, so it'd be a waste to end thing without a kiss.

Chad P.O.V

Chad met up with the same girl he met on the plane back to America, her name is Taylor McKessie. They were at a coffee shop, they talked and Chad asked to meet up again

Meanwhile

Troy was working tonight It was his shift currently he was shaving ice into a ball, he serves drinks to Zeke.

Gabriella was clutching her doll and confines her office.

President Montez sends Jason off to tell Gabriella she is basically fired from her job as Executive Director for the time being, this pisses Gabriella off and she declares that she isn't going anywhere.

Jason tries to dissuade her, as she beelines for the meeting room, not at all dismayed when the door is locked. Despite her pounding at the door the meeting carries on as usual, until Zeke finally gets the go-ahead to let her in.

But at the company there is a group they want to acquire, but the only way they can work up the funds is to sell a resort is Bahamas, something that has Gabriella up at arms because they can sell every place but that place.

Luckily for the company, Sharpay has a close contact with an American company who'll pay them lots of money for the resort. Gabriella's dissent falls on deaf ears even as she swears to come up with a plan to get the funds herself. Like we thought, the resort has sentimental value attracted to Mom.

Finally, Chairman Montez orders Gabriella taken out, and tears into her when she calls him 'Father' .

'How am I your father here?' He demands to know, and literally takes Gabriella to school in front of all the other board members. He appoints Sharpay as management on the project, since the Americas firms is in the Bahamas resort and thus presents is the perfect negotiation opportunity.

Gabriella is forced to stay and listen silently as dad and Zeke iron out details for Sharpay to take control of the project.

And Sharpay herself get the news, she can barely contain her happiness.

Meanwhile with Troy

Troy was going through his old doctor stuff and finds a picture of him and Sharpay he flips the picture over so it's not facing him.

He went outside and gets a call from Gabriella

'Have you found a place we can kiss yet?' asked Troy

She asks him to name ten people who've thrown away their or power for love

Princess Fiona from Shrek and I don't know.

Gabriella admits she wants to see him.

She is calling from the Bahamas from the resort when she's trying to saveit from being sold off by her father and step mother because it was dear to her real mother.

She doesn't even have to finish her sentence, because Troy automatically cuts in and says he'll accept her even if she loses everything.

'Okay, I'll believe you this one time. If it comes down for me to give up, I'll give up quickly. If it comes down to surrendering, I'll surrender even fast.' Said Gabriella

Sharpay pops up before she can hang up, and Troy stays on the line, while Gabriella tells Sharpay she's there to ruin her schemes, since she alone has found as way to get the funds they need without selling the resort.

'I thought I told you. You can't beat me'. Said Sharpay

She launches into a tirade about how far she's gone to overcome all the obstacles in her life, and what she's had to do. Basically she's made her bed and she'll make damn sure she gets to lay in it forever.

'Don't play around and just move, Gabriella. Like I told you, you can't beat me.' Said Sharpay

Once Sharpay's gone she hangs up on Troy.

Gabriella heads to a small house one the property where she and Mom used to visit, and admits to her Barbie that did lie to Sharpay. She hasn't found a way, but 'I am Gabriella Montez' it won't be taken away from me that easily. Believe in me Mom.

Meanwhile Sharpay meets up with the American business man buying the resort.

Gabriella burns the midnight oil to do some serious number crunching, since everything's better in a montage. Still without a solution, Gabriella stares at the starry sky and affirms to herself and

'Mom, not yet. I won't take my hands off this. I won't give up yet. I won't surrender yet.'

She ends up falling asleep outside and a mysterious person picks her up and dumps her into the river.

She comes up sputtering, face to face with a brightly smiling Troy. He's there to help her get her shiznit together

'Let's kill them all' said Troy to Gabriella.
