Musical Education

1
I'm going to New York.
I'll miss you.
Where are you traveling to?
Are you going with family or friends?
I'm going alone.
What if
you never came here from America?
What if you'd asked
someone else where biology was?
-Hey.
-Hey. Do you know where biology is?
Would it have been easier?
Where are you going?
-Where are you going?
-I'm going to perform on JayJay Live.
I want to save Highland High.
And Julia?
Juul is gone.
Everyone put themselves first.
Goodbye, Highland Squadland.
Highland Squadland, our school.
It was supposed to be a creative year.
But our new principal, Agnes,
had other plans.
From now on, it's all about performance.
You need to have
3,000 points by the end of the year
in order to join
the international school community
If we don't do something,
we'll be bound by Agnes' rules.
So we came up with a musical
to convince Agnes and her committee
that Highland High is already perfect.
-But our musical was sabotaged.
-Who changed this?
And now, Morris and I
are trying to expose the mole.
Two leads,
Saar Rozenblad and the camera footage.
Three, two, one.
Okay, once more.
Sorry.
Saar Rozenblad.
Hey. I'm a bit busy,
but we can take a selfie.
Yes. Since my epic fail,
everyone wants a photo with me.
-I'm suddenly popular.
-I don't need a selfie.
-Signature?
-No?
A signed Saar's epic fail T-shirt? €12.95.
No, thank you.
I want information.
Information?
Somebody destroyed
our musical show dresses.
Oh, that's terrible.
And it happened
while you poured smoothies over Agnes.
Okay?
I
-I don't understand.
-Listen.
I think your epic fail
was an intentional distraction
so the saboteur could destroy the dresses.
I don't know what you mean.
But if it helps,
I am clumsy. I can't help it.
Always have been.
I used to get bullied for it
but now I'm suddenly popular.
Sorry. Thanks for your time.
Wait.
Here. You can have it.
Maybe it'll cheer you up?
-That's sweet of you.
-Good luck.
It's not her. But we have a T-shirt.
-Great.
-Yes. Next.
The camera footage from the hallway.
We'll see the saboteur without a mask on.
But how do we access the footage?
-We'll get expelled from school.
-It doesn't matter.
-How does it work?
-Let me try.
CAMERAS - PLAYGROUND
HALLWAY - MUSIC ROOM - LIBRARY
Okay.
COPYING CAMERA HALLWAY 2
COPYING CAMERA HALLWAY 2
COPYING CANCELED
-What?
-What?
Morris and Tara. How disappointing.
Have I not made myself clear?
If you want to know something, ask me.
Don't break in.
-Who is the saboteur?
-What does it matter?
What you call a saboteur, I call an ally.
Tell us, please.
No. That would break the student's trust
and I can't do that as principal.
And as for the break-in,
that's unacceptable.
ERASING HARD DRIVE
No.
But I'm in a good mood,
so I won't punish you.
The Show Must Go On smoothie.
We mustn't give up.
But what else can we do?
It's really over.
Highland High is over
and nobody is together anymore.
ADMISSION QUIZ
Welcome, Highland High.
The countdown to admission has begun.
We're going live in ten minutes.
This will be our moment.
I have no doubt that my two best students
will get those final points we need.
Led by the quiz master.
Thank you. They'll have
15 minutes to answer ten questions.
Watch the clock.
If they fail to get 3,000 points
within the time limit,
Highland High will not be admitted.
The admissions committee
awards points for correct answers
and ultimately makes the final decision.
Good luck.
Yes, you're listening to JayJay's podcast.
My guest today is awesome.
You'll be so excited to hear who's here.
Nick de Jong. His song went viral,
making him an overnight sensation.
And here he is.
Live for you, on JayJay's podcast.
ADMISSION QUIZ
HIGHLAND HIGH
Welcome to the official admission ceremony
of Highland High.
Welcome, ladies.
Welcome.
This will be tense,
because these points are required.
The counter is currently at 2,990 points
and the two smartest Highlanders
will do whatever they can
to get ten correct answers
so they make it to 3,000 points.
It looks like Magenta
will do anything for those points.
How do we know Lisa will be quicker
giving the wrong answers?
I can't bear to watch it.
I'm glad you came.
And I couldn't resist.
You know,
when Sterre was no longer the lead,
I wanted to do it with you so badly.
But I waited too long.
And Lisa jumped in.
-Why didn't you say something?
-I couldn't.
And I thought you liked Lisa as well.
She looked so in love with you.
What?
Lisa.
Hey.
-Hey.
-Everything okay?
I have to concentrate. It's important.
She was very cold when I saw her.
Lisa?
We have now officially begun.
Question one.
What is the largest planet
in our solar system?
Jupiter.
Ster, what shall we do?
It's getting exciting.
Will Highland High qualify?
Concentrate on the next question.
Lisa's motive.
She's really smart, she offers tutoring.
She wants the best grades
so she gets into the best university.
How many tests will there be, Agnes?
But Lisa was suddenly
very enthusiastic about the musical.
-But it got in the way of her goal.
-Because she fell in love.
In love with you.
It was brilliant.
She faked being in love with you.
By pretending to be in love with you,
she had no motive.
No reason to sabotage the musical.
When we all went to Agnes' office,
Agnes probably already knew
what we were doing.
Lisa Labeij?
Agnes then left us alone
because Lisa was working
for her as a saboteur.
Next question.
What is the world's strongest material?
The strongest material is goethite.
After Lisa destroyed the dresses,
I almost caught her.
So she blamed you.
She found my letters and left a fake one
to make me look guilty.
Who is the Roman god of the sea?
-Neptune.
-Correct.
Meanwhile, Agnes drove Julia
and Magenta apart and stopped the musical.
Now Lisa and Magenta
will get the last points.
Magenta needs to know
that Lisa is the mole.
In what year was Google launched?
Gold.
-Correct again.
-Stop.
Now.
Stop them.
It's locked.
Sterre.
No. Open it.
What?
What?
We tried to stop the quiz
and got thrown out.
And we can't get in.
I have a plan.
We let everyone in the room know
that Lisa is the saboteur.
-Screens.
-Okay.
It works.
I want you with me always
Our story is endless
So stay with me
JayJay Live.
This track is so sweet,
my teeth are falling out my mouth, bro.
I'm excited for your next song.
You can hear it if you'd like.
Guys, we have a scoop,
scoop, scoopety-scoop.
Let's hear it.
Juul, this is specially for you.
Good luck in New York.
I'll miss you.
Even though you're not with me
Can't we be together?
I close my eyes
There you are
There's so much I haven't said
I can't explain it well
But I really believe
In you and me
Wherever you are
I hear your voice in everything
This will never end
Believe me
I'm at home with you
Everywhere you go
Always take me with you
I jump
I fall into the deep
Where you catch me
Home is when we're together
Julia means a lot to you, right?
-Yes, she sure does.
-Which school do you attend?
-Highland High.
-Highland High.
Hey, big shout-out to Highland High.
I see you.
What is the hardest material
in the human body?
Tooth enamel.
Yes. Okay.
How many LED screens do you need?
All of them.
It's locked.
How many bones are there
in the human skeleton?
Two hundred and six.
Did you think you could do it?
Well, yes, actually.
Why are you back?
I want Highland High back.
I don't want things to be easy.
-I want to fight for it.
-Hey, Nick.
Guys, there's a fire escape
which leads to the hall.
Come on.
By the way, Lisa is the mole.
-What?
-Come on.
What is the average lifespan of a swan.
In the wild, 20 years.
Magenta.
Magenta.
Which animal digs with its teeth?
The maned wolf.
Magenta.
With 35 seconds left on the clock,
it's time for the final
and most important question.
If this question is answered correctly,
Highland High will pass the test.
It's now or never.
Wait.
Here.
Signal.
Esmée, today would be nice.
CONNECTED
-Yes.
-We are live.
We are live.
The final question is
Dear students,
we have a traitor in our midst.
Someone who lied to us for weeks,
sabotaged us,
and turned us against each other.
Sorry for the interruption.
We continue with the final question.
The question for 3,000 points.
Who wrote the first book in human history?
Get it wrong.
Juul.
-You're back.
-I can't live without you.
Magenta.
You're right.
I should have told you.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry too.
Lacisum!
Lacisum.
Stop this. Stop.
We show who we are, Highland High forever
You're more than a nerd or a rapper
Are you sporty and also very clever?
You can outdo yourself
Not all life's lessons are in a textbook
Follow your heart, do your thing

My raps are so dope
I get ten for the flow
I'm not in the lesson, but I have class
Life's a lottery you don't have to scratch
Yeah, do you break dance
Or have jazz hands?
Rivals become best friends
We have no boundaries
Do you like CrossFit?
Are you a whiz kid?
Highland High has color
No, the world is not monochrome
We fight together
For Highland High
We are the Misfits, nobody can stop us

You don't need a spotlight
Dare to dream

There's nothing to do
Everything is good

Dare to dream
Yes, together we are stronger
Together we go further

We are the Misfits
Guys
I'm sorry.
What I've done is unforgivable.
Why did you do it, then?
The musical, is that really what you want?
It would be a shame
to expel you from school.
Someone with your intelligence can go far.
Why would you give that up?
They are my friends.
Do you understand I have the power
to expel you all from school?
If you don't do what I ask,
you'll be the first to leave.
And what are you asking of me?
I want you to make the musical fail.
I'm so sorry.
We all make mistakes.
Nobody is perfect.
I forgive you.
Me too.
Me too.
Me too.
HIGHLAND HIGH
We did it. The committee was
very enthusiastic about our medley
and admitted Highland High
to Masters of Everything.
And we got to keep our creativity,
individuality, and personality.
I am so proud of us.
Of who we are and our friendship.
Because that is forever.
