"Thank you all for coming to this culturally important press conference." Quinn says into the microphone.
"How does it feel knowing you've wrapped 'High School Musical 4'?" One of the interviews ask.
"I'm not ready to speak about it." Quinn answers. "Now, my next film, which I am announcing tonight, will be a gritty, big- budget re-imagining of William Shakespeare's 'Romeo and Juliet'. In my version. Nobody dies. We are, uh, slated to start principal photography next month, in January, in New Zealand. Now. I would like you to meet our stars, who are here to sign their contracts in front of the entire world. Because transparency matters. You will meet Mack in a moment. But right now, I would like to introduce you to our Juliet, who just moments ago, finished her own 'High School Musical' production in the gymnasium down the hall. Please welcome, the world will know her name if it doesn't already due to her album that came out a few months ago... Miss Summer Jones."
Summer walks out on stage and stands at the platform.
"Be bold. Let's make some headlines tonight." Quinn tells her.
"Hi there. Hello It is such a honor to be here tonight on stage at East High for the biggest nights of my life. An opportunity comes once in a life time, and I know that. And I'm not a quitter. And I've been asked to make some headlines tonight. And..." Summer says, cutting herself off as she sees the whole drama department, apart from Ricky, sneak in. "And... and the only reason I have the strength to play a role as big as Juliet, and I honestly can't wait to read the play, which I hear is incredible, is because of the people here at East High who made me who I am. The people who taught me how to love, even when it hurt."
Summer picks up the pen and takes a breather.

"Am I too late?" Summer looks up to see Ricky rushing in. "Am I too late?"
Summer looks at him confused before he starts playing the electric guitar he got.

I've been wishing on a fallen star for too long
I've been running I don't know what from
But you and I've become
A sacred kinda home

I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
And I know it
No net , no fear right now in this moment
I've never been more sure of what I got, yeah
'Cause this is so much more then puppy love
So I'll say it first
No matter what the cost
Here I am full heart, full stop
I love you

The reporters start taking photos of Summer and Ricky, neither of them caring as they just looked at each other. Ricky slowly making his way closer to her.

I wanna finish what we started
In the stair well were we met
I wanna live like I have never even heard the word regret
I wanna scream what's in my heart
And I won't ever take it back
'Cause I love you feels a lot like high school
And forever after that

The others then start to join in.

Carlos and Seb:
I wanna finish what we started
In the stair well were we met
