00:00I haven't slept in 12 years.
00:05You're only locked up for eight.
00:08Yeah.
00:10Okay, I have your brother's release paperwork here.
00:14Travel restrictions, community service.
00:16Once I sign this, I become his legal guardian.
00:22Hey, good to see you, brother.
00:24What's up?
00:26This here is your work release assignment, and you start immediately.
00:31The agency sent you over? Have you ever been in a studio before?
00:34Me? No.
00:41I signed up for the program because my father spent half his life in jail for tax evasion.
00:46When he got out, it was next to impossible for him to get a job.
00:49I don't think it was fair.
00:51Just remember, this is your brother's life, not yours.
00:53All you can do is try.
00:57That's the second time I've caught you watching.
00:59I didn't mean to watch. I've just never seen anything like that before.
01:03I know it's a lot to think about. Okay, and cross it.
01:05You can't fix everyone.
01:07And I'm not trying to save anyone.
01:09Oh, the broken man that's paid to clean your toilets.
01:12We were just dancing.
01:14Look at this.
01:15What are you doing here?
01:16Heard you got out.
01:17Thought I'd come see for myself since you never reached out.
01:19He called me a week before you got out, but I didn't tell him anything.
01:21He showed up at the dance studio today.
01:23There are things about me that you don't know.
01:25I don't want anything to happen to her or the studio.
01:28Doing something good doesn't wash off the day, no matter how many times you try it.
01:45You don't want anything to happen.
01:46If you want to see another video here, which is your first time I make?
01:48Even if you're in love with a show, what will you say to me?
01:49Is what I'm going to do?
01:50Do you know?
01:51Even the world you're in love with.
01:52You'll see someone who's in love with.
01:53You're in love with all the music.
01:54It's a lot of fun, it's a lot of fun.
01:55You're in love with.
01:56Don't you listen.
01:57Back to me and all the music.
01:58You're in love.
01:59You're in love with.
