01x03 - Trust

[bunniefuu]

Welcome to Take Note bootcamp.

You need stamina to sing
and strength to be a star.

So, we're going to get
you into noting shape.

Are you taking note?

Yes, Ally!

I feel a montage coming on.

Wake up Calvin!

What are you
doing in my room?

Let's go!

Move!

Go!

Let's go!

Let's move it!

Cute!

Go, go, go!

Round the ragged
rocks the ragged rascals ran.

Round the ragged rocks
the ragged rascals ran.

C'mon Calvin!

Round the ragged
rocks. Let's go!

Let's go!

C'mon, keep going!

But are you tired?

Yeah.

Forget about it!

Did I mention only 15
of you are making it

to the next round!

Nay, you did not!

Wake up Calvin!

Why are we having dinner
at six in the morning?

Baby, it's six in the evening.

You were so wiped out after
bootcamp, you just crashed.

I got video of dad carrying you

from the bathroom to your bed.

What?

It's more tasteful
than it sounds.

I'm so tired to even care,

but just make sure
you guys do not share

that stuff with anyone.

This show has strict
rules about posting.

So do we.

Jaxon!

Well, you've all read
the rule book, right?

Yeah. Of course.

Duh!

All right, well I'm
going back to bed.

I need you to be
fresh for tomorrow

when they announce
the fabulous 15.

What about dinner?

I'll have it for breakfast.

Dad's making frittatas
for breakfast.

Nah, we going have
that for lunch.

I thought we were gonna
have pizza for lunch.

We'll have that for dinner.

It'll be cold. You know what,

this conversation is more
exhausting than bootcamp.

Let's just have
dinner for dinner.

Boring! Boring!

We should have
some caramel chicken.

Yeah, definitely, definitely.

Chicken is that a thing?
On three, two, one!

And...

Like clockwork.

Hello, welcome...

Put the camera away

But mom!

Welcome to the moment of truth.

You may remove your blindfolds

and say hello to
the fabulous 15!

You made it you guys!

Celebrate!

Great!

Your next step on your
journey towards stardom

is an unusual mini challenge.

What's so unusual about it?

Lacy, save your strength

because with whatever energy
you have left in your bodies,

you will need to sing while...

Lying in a comfy bed?

Not even close!

Look behind you!

I can't ride a bike.

Don't worry, these
don't even move.

It doesn't matter.

Every bike is
connected to a wire.

Every wire is connected
to a generator.

Every generator can
power that blender.

The first singing
cyclist to power it,

wins the mini challenge bonus,

and a delicious smoothie!

We have a smoothie!

We have a smoothie!

Calvin is the winner!

Whoa!

Um, Sydney?

I'm okay!

G, door.

Jaxon, door.

Not for me.

Let's just cut out
the middle man.

I hate it when the boys
are both lazy and right.

He's so cute.

Oh!

Yo Mose, what's good?

For Max, it's just
part of his job.

Gimme your cellphones.

Easy, Max.

What's going on, Mosley?

There's been a violation

of the show's family
social media protocol.

Aw!

Well shame on that family.

It's your family.

Jaxon!

Not just Jaxon.

Screenshots of violations
by each of you.

Gimme your phones.

Easy, Max.

Oh well, this is just a
selfie I sent to my mama.

Hmm, and in the background
is Calvin's call sheet,

which shows the names of
the remaining contestants,

which the viewing audience
doesn't know about yet.

Give me your phones.

Easy, Max!

How do you fall off
a stationary bike?

How do you not?

You know, I never knew
victory could taste so sweet,

and mangoey,

but the best part is I
get to choose the trios

for the trio's a crowd night.

Which I shall do when
I'm done with .

And we're done with that now.

Oh, it's like that.

Okay, let's get to
picking teams now.

Well, let's go!

Team number one.

You'll get them
back in three days.

If there is a second violation,

Calvin will be disqualified.

Let's go, Max.

Oh, it looks like little
Jimmy with the freckles

is going home.

Disqualified?

Little Calvin can not
find out about this.

Calvin!

Oh, hey guys, how's it going?

Calvin buddy, it's going great.

Thanks to your teams!

Up top!

Are you high-fiving me?

Don't leave her hanging.

See you guys.

Bye.

Your teams stink.

What do you mean?

I mean, no one's happy.

I'm happy and Ivy's happy.

Of course, she's happy, you
put her on the best team.

I put everyone with
their friend's.

They should all be happy

Oh Calvin, just because
they're friends,

doesn't mean that they
want to perform together.

In fact, no one here is
really friends at all.

Come on.

I'm telling you this
'cause I like you.

Your friends, Miles and Sydney,

they've been trash-talking
you behind your back,

but you didn't hear it from me.

Miles and Sydney?

Reggie!

Reggie!

Are you asleep?

It's hard to sleep with
a face in your space.

We should have told Calvin.

Nuh-huh.

No sense in worrying
the boy, Drea,

keeping it from him
is good parenting.

Maybe.

I'm worried about Jaxon.

It's bad parenting to
have him keep a secret.

Well, sometimes good parenting

requires a little bad parenting.

This is really bad.

That means we're really good.

You know what worries me most?

Is that you believe that.

Mm-hmm.

Psst, Jaxon.

Are you awake?

It was all Mom and Dad?

What was all Mom and Dad?

I promised them I wouldn't tell,

but they, um, ate all
the leftover over pizza.

Who cares about pizza?

Look, I'm worried
about Sydney and Miles.

I think they might
be sabotaging me.

Come on!

Well the rules are that
the lowest scoring trio's

lowest scoring person,
gets eliminated.

I think they're trying
to make me look bad,

so I get kicked out.

Whoa!

That's just like on the show.

It is in the show.

Exactly.

Are you trying to confuse me?

Wait, are you a
part of their plot?

Bro!

You know there are
alliances and strategies.

That's what always made you
think this show was cooler

than "Idol" or "The Voice".

If anyone knows how "Take
Note" is played, it's you.

I know, but when I watch on TV,

I can size everyone up.

Getting to know everyone,
making new friends,

it's a whole
different ball game.

Emotions are the the
enemy of success.

Yeah.

I need to take my emotions
out of the equation.

I have to make myself look
better than my friends

because even if we
lose, I can win.

Exactly!

Do you!

Thanks, Jaxon.

No problem.

And you might want
to wear some shades,

so they don't see
that weird eye thing.

Goodnight.

And so Sondheim goes
tenor, more like fiver.

Oh!

Good morning, Calvin!

Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.

You're both here early.

Well, you know what they say?

Maybe I do, maybe I don't.

Are you feeling okay, Calvin?

Maybe I am, maybe I'm not.

Are we ready to rehearse?

Maybe we are, maybe...

Stop it! Stop it!

You missing your
phone there, Thumbs?

What!

Oh, you think because
I'm thumbercizing

that it's a sign.

No, no.

Not as much of a sign

as you making up the word
thumbercizing, but yes, yes.

Speaking of missing,
if Calvin asks

who at the leftover
pizza, you did.

Why would he ask that?

Because that's what I told him.

Why would you tell them that?

Because he was onto us, Mama.

He was onto us!

Okay, you are milking it a bit.

You're right.

Between the phone thing
and the secret keeping,

we are all stressed.

Why don't we take
our minds off of it

by playing a board
game or something?

Oh, come on, baby, I
don't want to play nothing

with the word bored
right in its name.

How about a family walk?

Board game it is!

- I feel better already.
- Alright.

Now, remember, this song
is all about the harmonies.

Got it.

From the chorus, three, four.

You can't riff like that.

He can't riff like that.

If he gets to riff like that.

Kids!

Oh, I'm gonna riff like that.

Okay, stop it.

Yeah!

What do you suppose
is up with Calvin?

No idea.

You didn't hear it from me,

but I just overheard
Calvin talking trash

about one of you guys to Ivy.

Which one of you is, and
I quote, "A little much".

Yeah, right.

Calvin and Ivy?

I thought you guys were happy?

Please!

Nice job picking the teams.

Not!

At least you got them.

Look how happy they are.

I wonder what he said about you.

Me?

More like you.

Hey guys!

Uh, sorry to interrupt lunch.

I got a little announceroo
about a little switcheroo.

Oh, switcheroos are fun!

So, rather than one person

potentially being
eliminated from each trio,

we are going to eliminate
the entire trio.

What? What?

Are you kidding?

Thanks a lot, Calvin!

Thank you so much.

Thanks Calvin!

We still know it's you Calvin.

You were right, Mom!

This is fun!

I'm about to make it rain!

Oh goody, goody.

Whoa!

Whoa, a board game?

What, did you guys lose
your phones or something?

No!

I was just playing, gees.

And I thought I was tense.

Why?

What's bothering you, honey?

Why are you so tense, son?

What about the game?

Now hold on a second,
Jaxon, your brother's tense,

and we have no choice
but to stop playing

for as long as he needs us.

Go ahead, son, tell
us why you're tense.

Well, I think I
really screwed up.

Yes, I know Take Note's
about the singing,

but it's also about the
people doing the singing.

And I don't know who to trust.

Who's making you feel that way?

Everybody.

Calvin, the only person
you need to trust is you.

If you're true to who
you are, you'll be okay.

Your dad is right, Cal.

If you're ever feeling
unsafe, unsure or lost,

just know that your
most trusted guide

and best compass is right here.

You okay?

Actually, now I am.

Thanks guys.

Come on, my money's
getting so cold

I might have to make it snow.

All right, c'mon.

It's
icy, it's cold.

Here we go!

Oh, by the
way, it's mine.

Listen, Jax, no, no, no.

My turn. Oh, no, it's my turn.

You cheat. It's my turn.

Go ahead. I don't care.

I'm winning. Jaxon!

Thanks for coming everyone!

It's not everyone.

Yeah, Lacy's team ain't here.

Exactly.

Steve is the door closed?

He's locking us in!

He's locking us in, guys!

Psych!

Whatever.

What's going on, Calvin?

If there's one thing
I was certain about,

it's when I picked the trios
and put friends together,

at the very least, you
all should have had fun.

Yeah, sure, sure. Sure.

But when I noticed
no one was happy,

I knew something wasn't right.

Thanks, Calvin, obvious.

What's your point?

In the last couple of days,

how many of you
have heard Lacy say,

"You didn't hear it from me"?

She played all of us.

She hurt every team here
by creating mistrust.

Why are you telling us this

if you figured
out her evil plan?

Why not just tell
Sydney and Miles

and sing happily ever after?

Yeah.

What do you care if our
teams crash and burn?

Because I don't believe

that's what Take
Note is all about.

I think we all deserve a
chance to be our best trios.

Come on, are you kidding me?

Okay, guys, don't we at
least want to hear his plan?

You do have a plan, right?

Of course, he does.

I hope.

The plan is simple.

All we have to do is...

Welcome back to
Trio's a crowd night.

Let's give it up for
Sydney, Miles and Calvin!

Judges?

Rudy, you first.

Oh!

You got to come back to me.

Wow!

A speechless Rudy!

Athena?

The harmonies, the harmonies,

the harmonies,
harmonies, harmonies.

The Mmm Mmmnies.

I'm a yes.

Well Ally, you don't
need to come back to me.

Athena just said everything.

I'm a yes.

Okay, spill the tea.

How did you ace the trio exam

when all we heard was
none of you were studying?

Miles?

To be honest, I didn't really
understand the question.

Syd?

Harmony!

Told ya!

Calvin?

All we needed to hold us
together was mutual respect,

trust, and friendship.

It was a simple plan.

That is so simple!

I love it!

Well, you three, it looks
like you're all through

to the next round.

Let's see if Lacy
and her team are too!

Let's go, baby!

Let's go, baby.

That is what I'm
talking about, bro!

See ya!

Max.

Max.

Here are your cellphones.

Remember, no more warnings.

Next time, he's out.

And for the record,
Calvin did great tonight.

Thanks.

It wasn't so hard, you
know, being without them.

It's true!

I played a board game!

Okay, bud.

It's true.

Go ahead laugh about it!

We're better people now!

I'm a better person!

That's right!

We just found out Lacy's team

is the one that didn't make it.

Oh, I guess she had that coming.

Oh!

I see you got your phones back.

What ever do you mean?

I know you we're
on phone probation.

What?

What's he saying?

If you read the manual,
you'd know that they tell us,

so we'll talk to our families
and tell them to stop.

Why didn't you talk to us?

'Cause I know you'd
never do anything

to knowingly hurt me.

Besides, just kind of funny
knowing you guys were squirming.

Calvin.

I respect that.

But I must admit,

I felt a little left out

when I found out you guys
were playing a board game.

Oh, we can fix that.

Reggie.

Well.

All right, let's do it!

I smell another
beat down coming on.

I'm not letting you win.

I'm the man.

Who the man!

Who the man!
