Coach Roberts [to Riley, Grace, and Bree]
Hey, girls. Congratulations on your win!
[gasps]
That's the high school coach! [she and Disgust exclaim excitedly]
Coach Roberts What a game! That last play? Whoo! The three of you were impressive!
Coach Roberts Look, its last minute, but every year, I do a three-day skills camp. I invite all the best players in the area. I'd love for you girls to come.
Are we in a dream right now? Please, can somebody pinch me? [Anger punches him in the arm] Definitely awake.
If we impress Coach, she'll put the three of us on the team next year.
Ooh, the Fire Hawks. Finally, a team I can get behind!
Coach Roberts What do you say?
YES! Thank you, Coach! Thank you, thank you!
BA Bree and Grace
[in unison]
YES!
Coach Roberts Great! We'll see you tomorrow. [Riley and her friends squeal in excitement; Later that evening, at Riley's house...]
B Bill
Ha! You are such an all-star! Oh, you're going to knock the coach's skates off! Hockey scholarship, here we come!
[happily]
Dad, stop! It's just hockey camp. I mean who knows what'll happen. [inside her mind, the memory of her getting a two-minute penalty for tripping shows up; worried] My penalty almost lost us the game today. What if I get to camp and screw it up?
B Bill
Hey, don't talk like that.
Yeah. You did great today, honey.
Exactly! Mom gets it. [removes the memory]
Coach Roberts Ladies! Settle in means settle down. I need your focus. Which means now I'm going to need your cellphones. All of them. [the girls all complain over this; tuts] You're here to work, not goof around. [glares sternly at Riley] Got that, Andersen?
[Embarrassment presses a button on the console, making Riley blush in foolishness.] [moronically]
Yes, Coach...
Coach Roberts Please put all your phones in the basket. You'll get them back at the end of camp. [walks around, holding the basket as all the girls drop their cellphones in it, and so does Riley]
[whispering]
Wow. Coach is so serious.
[exhausted]
Why are we up so early?
Because mon-ami, we need to speed things up. And that means we hit the ice early and practice like we've never practiced before.
Aren't we already good at hockey?
We're good, but the Fire Hawks are great.
That's right. [Riley misses a puck, making her skate around the rink] Every time we miss, we skate a lap around the rink. Hockey is not a game; it is a sport.
We need to be that good every time. Let's run it again.
V Val
Hey, I see I'm not the only one who likes to start early.
You guys, it's Val! We had the same idea!
We're basically the same person. We're gonna be best friends!
V Val
How long have you been here?
I-I don't know. Maybe an hour? I just wanted to get in some extra ice time.
Oh, my gosh. She gets us.
V Val
See? I told the other girls you'd figure it out. You get what it takes to be the best.
Look at us. This is going great.
Yeah, but we need Val to really like us.
Oh! We should ask Val lots of questions. People love talking about themselves.
So, what was your freshman year on the Fire Hawks like?
V Val
I mean… It was a lot of work. Like a lot. But it's also how I met my best friends.
Val is sharing things with [squeals] US!
V Val
Hey, a few of us are just gonna hang out tonight, order some food. You should come!
An exclusive invitation. Mwah-ha-ha! We're going!
V Val
Definitely! It'll be fun.
Coach Roberts Alright, ladies, let's warm up.
Huh! We are not sharing Val with them.
V Val
Early mornings make me so hungry.
I know, right? I'd give anything for a piece of pizza right now.
Coach Roberts [blowing her whistle after Riley aggressively slams into Grace by accident; sharply]
Andersen! Penalty box, two minutes.
[Riley watches Bree and Coach Roberts checking on Grace to see if she's alright.]
We hurt Grace!
It all happened so fast. I didn't even see her!
