BASKETBALL PRACTICE
{Troy looks conflicted for a moment. He then launches into a short conversation with Chad}
Troy: So,dude, you know that school musical thing? Is it true you get extra credit just for auditioning?
Chad: Who cares?
Troy: You know it's always good to get extra credit... for college...
Chad: You ever think that Lebron James or Shaquille O'Neal auditioned for their school musical?
Troy: Maybe.
Chad: Troy. Look, the music in those shows isn't hip hop, ok or rock, or anything essential to culture. It's like show music. It's all costumes and makeup... Oh, dude, it's frightening.
Troy: Yeah, I know. I just thought it might be a good laugh, you know. Sharpay's kinda cute, too
Chad: So is a mountain lion. But you don't pet it.
Troy: (sighs) All right Wildcats! Pair up! Let's go! Come on!
(Song starts)
🎵Coach said to fake right
And break left
Watch out for the pick
And keep an eye on defense
Gotta run the give and go
🎶And take the ball to the hole
But don't be afraid
To shoot the outside "J"
Just keep ya head in the game
Just keep ya head in the game
And don't be afraid
🎵To shoot the outside "J"
Just keep ya head in the game

'Cause when we get it
Then the crowd will go wild

(Song ends)
[Suddenly their was the sound of hands clapping Troy and Chad and the whole team turned around as they saw Sam and Cat applauding]
Cat:You guys are awesome!
Sam:Besides basketball you guys should definitely take your singing talent to the stage.
Cat:Yeah!
Chad:As in sing in front of hundreds of people and probably get stage fright,pass out then be humiliated by the whole school? Yeah, that's a no for me.
Cat:There's nothing wrong with singing, dancing and doing musicals and all that...stuff.*giggles*
Chad:Yeah.*chuckles*
[Cat and Chad stared at each other for a minute until Sam snapped her out of it]
Sam:Anyway, we'd better get to our next class.We'll see you guys in detention.
Cat:Bye!
Chad:Later.
[As Sam and Cat left Chad's teammates all smiled and glared at him]
Teammates:Mm-hm.
Chad:What?
Troy:Don't "what" us, you were totally flirting with her.
Chad:No I wasn't.
Troy:You flirting with your eyes.
Teammates:Ooooh.
Chad:I was not.I was just smiling at her.
Troy:Yeah right.
Teammates:Ooh! Chad and the new girl sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!
[Everyone laughs]
Chad:What team?
-WILDCATS!
Chad:What team?
-WILDCATS!
Chad:What team?
-WILDCATS!-SCIENCE CLASS
[The class is working on their assignment and Sharpay decides to have a little chat with Gabriella]
Sharpay: So, it seemed like you knew Troy Bolton.
Gabriella: Not really. He was just showing me around.
Sharpay:(laughs) Well, Troy doesn't usually interact with new students.
Gabriella: (glancing at the chalkboard) Uh, why not?
Sharpay: Well, it's pretty much basketball 24/7 with him.
Gabriella: That should be 16 over pi...
Teacher: Yes, Miss Montez?
Gabriella: Oh, I'm sorry, I just... Uh... Shouldn't the second equation read 16 over pi?
Cat:I got 16 over pi too ma'am.
(Sharpay rolls her eyes)
Teacher: 16 over pi? Tha's quite impossible.
{The teacher checks it on her calculator}
Teacher: I stand corrected.
{The teacher corrects the equation on the chalkboard}
Teacher: Oh... and welcome aboard you two.
Cat:Thank you.
{Sharpay seems offended}
{Troy stops at the sign-up sheet and eyes it for a few seconds before moving on as Ryan observes. As Troy moves on, Sharpay comes along as Ryan pulls her aside}
Ryan: Troy Bolton was looking at our audition list.
Sharpay: Again? You know, he was hanging around with that new girl and they were both looking at the list. There's something freaky about her. Where did she say she was from?
{Ryan is staring at the list. Sharpay scoffs and struts off as Ryan follows. Sharpay does a search for Gabriella Montez on the internet}
Ryan: (on seeing an article about Gabriella) Wow! An Einsteinette. So why do you think she's interested in our musical?
Sharpay: I'm not sure that she is. And we needn't concern ourselves with amateurs. But... there is no harm in making certain that Gabriella's welcome to school activities that are... well , appropriate for her. After all... she loves pi.
{Sharpay prints Gabriella's article and takes it}
