Dance Brothers (2023) s01e02 Episode Script

1
[Roni] Hey, thanks for another shot.
You won't be disappointed.
Yeah, something felt off
about the first time.
I wanted to see you again.
Go ahead.
[sigh echoes]
[unsettling music playing]
I thought that'd be the case.
At your age, I was already a big star.
Received every award
and accolade that you could get.
[tarry fabric ripping]
[exhales heavily]
Poor boy.
[panting]
[distorted echoes] Poor boy.
[panting heavily]
[Arvola laughing]
Oh, poor boy!
[unsettling music halts]
[Sakari] Did they say
if the old man's okay?
[Roni] No, but I guess he is,
if they just let us go like that.
POLICE
[woman] Roni and Sakari Luoto?
Linnea Kokko,
legal counsel for Mr. and Mrs. Bosch.
I suggest you come with me,
for your own good.
[frenetic electronic music playing]
ALL RUGS -70%
[Sakari] We could put
a fantastic club in a place like this
with a little renovation.
[Roni] Or maybe a big one.
[Sakari] How about
we start our own club, man?
With our own rules.
One that looks like us.
- And And then we can
- [playback stops]
- [woman] Go ahead, have some.
- [Sakari] Thanks.
[Roni clears throat]
Mrs., uh, Borsch?
- Bosch?
- [woman] Bosch. Aida Bosch-Azizi.
Bosch.
[Roni spluttering] The thing
that happened last night was
- [Roni, Sakari talking over one another]
- Just hold on a minute. Now listen to me.
[man coughs]
I've decided to rent
the warehouse out to you
on a very generous two-year lease
for a fee of 1,700 euros per month
to accomplish this vision of yours.
As far as Firuz is concerned,
he holds no grudge.
[emphatic cough]
And what about renovation costs?
- The place will need
- [Aida] Just wait a moment.
What do you think
a person can get for free 'round here?
Set up a company
and take out a loan for 20 grand.
Well, we're not opening
any club at the moment.
By the way, it's a brilliant idea.
- [Roni] What will you get out of this?
- Financial benefit, of course.
If we agree to this deal,
are we all square?
[Linnea clears throat]
[Aida] For technical, legal reasons,
we would want to avoid
any further dealings with the authorities.
Okay.
If there's nothing legal to discuss,
we appreciate it, but we're good.
But thank you. Thank you.
Really. Have a nice day.
Come on.
Hey. Hold on. Hold on.
Just think a little, okay?
Come on.
They want us
to launder money or something.
Focus, Sakke.
Can't pretend we know
how to run a club, man.
Focus? What focus?
Focus on what, huh?
We put our focus on Arvola at first, yeah?
But we didn't make it. And Dance Fest
is not gonna help us conquer the world.
- Seriously?
- I have experience working in a bar.
You heard what she's offering us.
This doesn't just happen every day.
The fuck do you know
about running a business?
You need to hire workers, do logistics,
find out how much you need to make
to survive another week,
and still have time to rehearse.
Let's calculate, okay?
Let's just do the math.
Then figure out if it's gonna work.
Mom's about to kick us out.
We need to get our own place and rent it.
You thought about that?
We have a staff room here
that already has a shower and kitchen.
I know that that your mother
is going to really like
that she'll no longer
have to house the two of you.
She can be a little less ashamed
of having two grown-up boys at home.
[tense music building]
[mother] Let me get this straight.
You went and rented some moldy warehouse
in a dead suburb from Aida Bosch,
and now you want me
to guarantee your loan?
[funky hip-hop beat playing]
That's a stupid idea.
No, it's not.
Look.
["Push It" by Salt-N-Pepa playing]
[Roni] First, we set up
a company with the Bosches.
With the Bosches' 10% ownership
and the guarantee from you,
we're gonna get a loan easily,
and then things will start rolling.
Sure, we'll lose money at first
with all the renovations and branding,
but we've done the calculations,
and soon this business will run itself.
Doris will take care of
the light and music equipment.
Hey! Luoto boys! [Doris laughs]
Weren't you supposed to be
on a gig in Sicily?
Sicily, Athens, whatever.
- It was two days ago.
- [pig snorts]
She's a hell of a freakin' DJ,
and takes full control.
Andy got us those speakers there.
They're kind of old,
but they should be good.
Cooling by day
Then at night, working up a sweat ♪
Come on, girls
Let's go show the guys that we know ♪
How to become number one
In a hot party show ♪
[mother] What about the electrical work?
Don't do that yourself.
[Roni] Of course not.
We'll hire a professional.
Everything will be ready in a month,
and you'll finally get rid of us.
I know this has been hard on you,
but you've supported us
through everything.
As a thank you,
we came up with a cool name
for our club to honor you, Mom.
[Roni] Laundry.
[song halts]
Oh, get the fuck out. What am I doing?
My god.
Goddamn it, what the hell. Fuck this shit.
[contractor clears throat]
Jeez, what in God's name is all this shit?
Jesus fucking Christ.
Okay.
[Sakari] Okay. Okay?
So, did we pass?
As long as you don't use
that over there, yeah.
That's about it.
You should be all right though.
[dance music playing faintly]
[Sakari] Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.
[Roni] Badass, badass.
[Aida] I'm proud of you,
business partners.
- All we need is some people in here.
- [Aida] Yeah, it's been taken care of.
Firuz got you two
an amazing deal on a billboard ad.
[Roni] Wow.
[Aida] I'll pay for it.
I want to see your club thrive
just as much as you do.
- [dancer 1] Two o'clock, two o'clock.
- [dancer 2] Whoa. Yeah, yeah.
- [dancer 3] No way. This place
- [dancer 2] What the fuck is this?
Wow, did the Bosches get those?
- Nah. They didn't. No. But I did.
- [dancer 3] This gives you inspiration.
[Ron] Huh?
Is there anything left in the account?
Why?
So that we can pay Doris
and everyone else.
[Roni] Doris and others
will get paid after the first few days.
But we should be able to rehearse.
Yeah. Well, we're all ready.
Who's we?
All of us here.
What? That was the plan, wasn't it?
You serious?
[dancer 2] We should start
by talking 'bout compensation
Hey, all right.
There's been a small miscommunication
between Sakke and I.
We don't really have our own crew yet.
We don't even have the money
to pay ourselves, so
[dancer 2 scoffs]
Right. Okay. Well, see you around.
[Roni] Hey, I'm really sorry about this.
I am. It would've been cool
to do this with you.
But see you
at the Laundry grand opening, right?
[door closes]
Friends and work don't go together, okay?
And you think we have that kind of money?
We didn't need to pay anyone yet.
They coulda waited.
And speaking of all that,
how much were those?
We had money left over from the ad.
And did you see the list
of all the billboards Firuz got us, huh?
Dude, some of these are insane.
Worth a couple thousand. Just think.
We're gonna be legit.
Did you hear, Sakke?
Arvola chose this kid Nico
to be in Déjà-vu.
He's really similar to you
as a dancer, okay?
But he's just kinda blah.
Honestly, I don't understand
why he didn't choose you.
Eh, guess I wasn't good enough.
[moody synth music playing]
[dancer] What?
Hey, what?
Yeah, where are you guys?
Okay?
Okay. By the bus. Huh?
Ha.
No, you'll find us pretty easily.
Yeah, get on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're already here.
Let's go for a swim.
[dancer] Yeah, we got pizza.
[dancer] No, pizza.
There's like eight boxes.
[dancer] Come on, guys.
[dancer] It's gonna get cold soon anyways.
[moody synth music continuing]
How's it feel?
[Karo] Mmm, just right.
Not good enough for Arvola, right?
Well
You turned down the offer
that every single dancer in Finland wants.
How come?
I don't know. I just can't bail on Roni.
He asked you to do that?
What? No, of course not.
He doesn't even know.
Okay.
[Sakari] We've got
our mutual projects now.
The timing's just not so good.
Hmm.
Yeah, so I, uh
Been meaning to ask
Um, would you like to
[laughing]
[dancer] Oh my god, it's freezing! Ah!
Yeah?
Would you wanna come
to the grand opening of our club?
Yeah. Of course.
You didn't have to ask.
[dancer speaking indistinctly]
[music swells, trails off]
Goddamn, we're really fucking far
from the center.
Yeah, but wait till you see it.
It's so
Mmm.
[Angelo] Okay, I trust you.
[tense electronic music playing]
Well, I see it.
[Karo speaks indistinctly]
[tense music fades,
muffled dance music playing]
Hey, glad you could make it.
Um, what can I get you? It's on the house.
Well, unfortunately we can't stay,
but you can give us a little champagne.
We got beer.
Beer, yes.
Wow, just seeing a place like this
reminds me of when "Boner Beats" broke.
Doesn't it?
We had gigs in these kind of places.
It almost makes me miss those times.
You know, arena gigs,
they're they're nice and everything,
but you don't get the intimacy a club has.
You can totally take over
the floor if you want.
Doris won't mind, I don't think.
[sharp laughter] Yeah. Yeah.
[Angelo] No offense guys, but no.
I don't perform for empty rooms anymore.
I've worked too hard
for that kind of thing.
What?
These are the guys. I told you about them.
Ah, yeah!
Karo says that you guys are dancers.
Well? We're always looking for new talent.
So, how about you audition for me?
[Sakari] What? Now?
- Right now then? Huh?
- Come on!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, let's go!
Hey, DJ. Play "Smoother."
[Sakari] Turn up the volume.
[sultry dance music playing]
Can see us, can be us ♪
I'm hopelessly devoted ♪
I'll show ya ♪
Whoo! [Roni claps sarcastically]
A dancing monkey. Let's go!
Sorry. It's just that soullessly
shaking your ass to mainstream bullshit
isn't really our style.
[music distorts, stops]
Okay.
Huh.
[tense electronic music playing]
Thanks for this.
And hey, happy opening night.
Hey, hey, hang on now.
Wait. He wasn't talking about you.
The whole club thing is really stressful.
Why are you defending that asshole?
First of all, Angelo was
only trying to help you out,
and second of all, we've spent hours
on that "soulless ass shaking."
And it's great ass shaking. I
All I mean is that
your choreography is so good that it
[Karo] Ugh. Yeah. Forget it.
Well, maybe everyone will come
for an after-party.
How the hell could such an expensive
ad campaign not work?
[tense electronic music playing]
