Why is everybody staring at you?
- Not me, you. - Because of the callbacks?
I can't have people staring at me. I can't.

Aah!
I am so sorry.
You do not want to get into that, man.
- Too much drama. - Yeah.
What is going on here?
Look at this! That Gabriella girl just dumped her lunch on me!
On purpose! It's all part of their plan to ruin our musical.
And Troy and his basketball robots are obviously behind it.
Why do you think he auditioned?
After all the hard work you've put into this show.
It just doesn't seem right.
- What's up? - What's up? Oh, let's see...
You missed free-period workout to audition for a heinous musical.
And now suddenly people are confessing.
Yeah, and Zeke. Zeke is baking... cr鑝e br鹟閑.
What's that?
Oh, a creamy custard with a caramelized surface.
- It's really satisfying. - Shut up, Zeke!
Look... do you see what's happening here, man?
Our team is coming apart because of your singing thing.
Even the drama geeks and the brainiacs suddenly think that they can...
...talk to us.
- Look, the skater dudes are mingling. - Yo!
Suddenly people think that they can do other stuff.
Stuff that's not their stuff.
You're thinking about show tunes, when we've got a playoff game next week.
Whoa!
Whoa!
- Ooh! - Head's up!
- All right. Cards on the table right now. - Huh?
You're tweaked because I put your stars in detention and now you're getting even.
What are you talking about, Darbus?
Your all-star son turned up at my audition.
Now, I give every student an even chance,
which is a long and honorable tradition in the theater.
Something that you wouldn't understand.
But, if he is planning some sort of practical joke in my chapel of the arts...
- Troy doesn't even sing. - Oh, well, you're wrong about that.
But I will not allow my Twinkle Town musicale to be made into farce.
- Twinkle Town? - See? I knew it!
- Hey... - I knew it!
Sounds like a winner. Good luck on Broadway!
Is Sharpay really, really mad at me? I said I was sorry.
Look, no one has beaten out Sharpay for a musical since kindergarten.
I wasn't trying to beat anyone out.
We didn't even audition, we were just singing.
You won't convince Sharpay of that.
If that girl could play both Romeo and Juliet, her own brother would be aced out.
I told you it just happened, but I liked it.
A lot.
Did you ever feel like there's a whole other person inside you
just looking for a way to come out?
Not really. No.
Let's go.
Hey, Sharpay, I thought since Troy Bolton's gonna be in your show...
Troy Bolton is not in my show.
OK, um... well, I thought maybe you could watch me play ball sometime.
- I'd rather stick pins in my eyes. - Wouldn't that be awfully uncomfortable?
Evaporate, tall person!
I bake!
If that helps.
- Wow! It's like a jungle up here. - Yeah, just like that cafeteria.
Well, I just humiliated myself into the next century.
- No! Come on. - So this is your private hideout?
Yeah. Thanks to the science club. Which means my buddies don't know it exists.
You pretty much have the school wired, don't you, Troy?
Seems to me like everyone on campus wants to be your friend.
Unless we lose.
Well, I'm sure it's tricky being the coach's son.
Makes me practice a little harder, I guess.
I don't know what he'll say about the singing.
- You worried? - My parents friends are always saying,
\
Sometimes I don't wanna be the \
I just wanna be a guy. You know?
I saw the way you treated Kelsi at the audition yesterday.
Do your friends know that guy?
To them, I'm the playmaker dude.
They don't know enough about you, Troy.
At my other schools I was the freaky math girl.
It's cool coming here and being... anyone I wanna be.
