[At the skatepark, Ronnie Anne and her friends are on top of the half-pipe. Sid, Nikki and Sameer on one side, and Casey, Laird and herself on the other side] Ronnie Anne: "I call this one 'The Bottle-Opener'." [Goes down the half-pipe and comes up the other side. She goes so fast that the wind she makes twists the cap off the water bottle Sid's holding] Sid & Nikki: "Whoa!" Sameer: "Whoa!" [Ronnie Anne lands next to them and catches her board] Sid: "That trick was so sick, it needs a doctor!" Carlos: "As we used to say, that was gnarly to the max." Ronnie Anne:[Skates down to her Tío] "Thanks, Tío Carlos." [Her amigos join her] "We're practicing for a big competition next week." Laird: "Yeah, we're doomed. We're going up against Tony Hawk's team." Carlos:[Shocked] "The Tony Hawk? I mean, uh… Who's that?" Ronnie Anne: "You don't know who Tony Hawk is? He's the greatest skater of all time! He's a legend." Carlos: "Pssh, if it's a legend you want, what if Carlos X coaches you?" Ronnie Anne:[in unison] "Really?" Nikki:[in unison] "Awesome." Sid: "Cool." Casey & Sameer: "That would be great." Ronnie Anne: "Gracias, Tío. I can't wait to be on team X." Carlos: "Me either! "Competing with Tony Squawk?" [Clenches fists diabolically] "What an honour." Ronnie Anne:[Annoyed] "Tony Hawk." Carlos: "Close enough."
[Back in apartment 2B, Carlos is digging through some of his college memorabilia, with a sour expression] Carlos:[Scoffs] "Do I know Tony Hawk?" [Takes out an old photo of himself and the Tony Hawk himself skating together in their college days. Flashback to the day the photo was taken] Flashback Announcer: "Up next, Carlos X!" Flashback Carlos: "Aw, yeah, baby! This is gonna be gnarly to the max!" [Skates to the edge of the pit, waves his hand up, and suddenly another hand pushes him in before he's ready. The hand belongs to Tony Hawk, who is laughing diabolically as the about-to-be loser falls in] "What are you doing?!" [Carlos finally crashes at the bottom of the pit] Flashback Announcer: "And Carlos X is out before he even started! That's a perfect zero, folks." [Tony innocently skates by] "Up next, newcomer, Tony Hawk!" [Tony skates up and does his routine flawlessly. Everyone cheers, all except one. Carlos growls] Flashback Carlos: "Curse you, Tony Hawk!" [End of flashback, Carlos angrily clutches the photo and tears it up] Carlos: "And now it's payback time!"
[At the skatepark, a board is shredding along the pavement, across a grind rail, and does an ollie, the rider is none other than Tony Hawk, coaching his team] Tony: "Okay, guys. Time to shred!" [Tony's team cheers, unaware that a pair of binoculars is watching them. Carlos is hiding with leaves on his head and spying on Tony's team] Sergio: "Hey, Carlos. Who you spying on?" Carlos: "How'd you recognize me? And I'm not spying. I'm helping Ronnie Anne beat Tony Hawk's skate team by doing a little..." [Thinks of another word for spying] "..research." Sergio: "You mean cheating? Carlos:[Annoyed] "I am not cheating! It's called research!" [That last part Carlos yelled so loud it echoes, catching Tony's attention. Carlos dives behind a wall. The team thinks nothing of it and goes back to practicing. Carlos growls] Sergio:[Squawks] "Busted! What next, Einstein?" Carlos: "Plan B." [Grabs Sergio by the throat] "B for bird." Sergio:[Knowing who the bird is] "Gulp."
[Later, Team Hawk is still practicing] Tony: "Great pop on that nollie, Molly." [What the team doesn't know this time is that Sergio has them on camera.] Carlos:[Watching on his phone] "Hold it right there." [Observes] "Crisscross, a pyramid grinder and a ghost helicopter." [Laughs diabolically]
[Carlos is now ready to coach Ronnie Anne and her friends. They are all at the skatepark, Carlos showing them a blackboard] Carlos: "If Tony Hawk is as amazing as you say, which I highly doubt, we've got to skate above and beyond. Hmm... off the top of my head, uh, let's try a crisscross, then a pyramid grinder and a ghost helicopter." Ronnie Anne: "I never even heard of the last two before. Sid: "Yeah, sweet moves." Sergio: "But is it enough to beat Tony?" Carlos: "Huh, you're right. We'll have to make the moves even more extreme!" Laird: "How are we gonna do that? Carlos: "Easy, physics. Let's hit the pavement!" [Everyone heads off, Except for Laird, who falls over] Laird: "I have gravity down."
[Later, Ronnie Anne straps on a glove, pulls out a wedgie and puts on a new helmet. She is wearing a grey spandex suit with a big orange X on it. Sid is wearing the same. They are each on opposite sides of the half-pipe. On the ground, all their friends are also wearing rather tight spandex uniforms, and are very uncomfortable] Carlos: "These new aerodynamic uniforms will make you fifteen percent faster, which will allow you to go higher and give you more air-time." Casey: "It's also giving me a wedgie." Sameer: "I have wedgies in places I didn't know I could get a wedgie." [Ronnie Anne and Sid, who are seemingly fine, skate down the half-pipe, so fast that their eyes start drying out. They get launched up and have enough airtime to do their k-pop dance moves. They trade the boards under their feet twice, then kick them straight up. The boards form an X shape in mid-air and then drop. Each girl catches the other's skateboard. X-TREME CRISSCROSS. They land at the bottom of the half-pipe, cheering for themselves] Sid: "Did it!" Ronnie Anne: "Yes!" [to Carlos] "You weren't kidding about that air-time." [She and Sid drop to their knees clutching their lower areas in discomfort] "Or the wedgies." [They drop face-first.]
[Next, Carlos is showing Laird, Sid and Ronnie Anne the next move] Carlos: "Anyone can do a pyramid grinder, so we're gonna do an inverse pyramid grinder." [The blackboard shows Casey and Sameer holding Nikki up between them, behind the blackboard, Nikki is holding Casey in one hand and Sameer in the other, both above her head] "Balance is all about the center of mass. With Nikki at the center, the formation-- should hold." [--Casually pushes Nikki forward. The three friends scream in fear as they approach the grind rail at a high speed. And scream again as Nikki grinds over it and they all do a kickflip. INVERSE PYRAMID TRIPLE KICKFLIP GRINDER. And scream again as they land unharmed, which they then realize] Sameer, Nikki & Casey:[Realizing that they're okay] "Huh?" Sameer:[in unison] "Awesome!" Nikki:[in unison] "Woohoo!" Casey:[in unison] "Yeah!"
[Next, it's time for the last move. Carlos picks up two skateboards.] Carlos: "Instead of a ghost helicopter, let's do a double ghost helicopter." [Carlos gives the two boards to Laird, who is in a spinning chair with whipped cream canisters strapped to his chest and helmet] Laird: "Uh… Let's not..." [Look at the canisters] "What's the whipped cream for?" Carlos: "Oh, you're about to find out." [Yanks the release cord. Laird starts spinning really fast in the chair. Carlos takes out a remote] "Engage whipped cream thrusters!" [Presses the button on the remote. Laird gets launched up in the air by the power of pneumatically pressurized whipped topping. Laird is in mid-air rolling his eyes in dizziness. He spins across the grind rail and gets launched up again, spinning a skateboard in each hand like helicopter blades. DOUBLE GHOST HELICOPTER (A LA MODE). He lands safely as his friends all cheer] "That ghost helicopter a la mode was hauntingly perfect!" Laird:[Sprays some cream into his mouth] "And delicious." Ronnie Anne: "We're totally gonna win thanks to you, Tío Carlos." Carlos:[Diabolically] "Tony Hawk won't see us coming." [Laughs like a supervillain, but suddenly gets whipped cream sprayed in his face. Laird is spraying it in celebration, the kids all cheer]
[The next day, it's time for the skating tournament. The gates - showing the SKATE PARK signs - are open.] Announcer: "Welcome to the thirteenth annual GLC Skate-Off!" [Team X and their coach enter the skatepark. Ronnie Anne and Sid gasp when they see Tony Hawk himself] Nikki: "So cool." Casey: "He's real!" Carlos: "Yeah, yeah, yeah. Remember, you have what it takes to beat Tony Hawk. Now, get out there make him regret ever pushing me… I mean… taking up skateboarding. On three, 'Destroy Tony Hawk!'" [Starts a hand pile which the kids get in on] "Uno, dos, tres!" Kids: "Destroy Tony Hawk!" [The kids found that a little odd] Casey: "Wow, the X and Carlos X must be for 'exterminate'." Announcer: "Let's start shredding! First off, Team Hawk vs. Team X!" [The teams get ready to face off. Round 1] Tony: "Okay, I know how hard you guys have worked to get here. Now, just remember to relax and have fun. You got this." [His team skates off. Two of his team members start down from opposite sides of the half-pipe. They come up the other side only slightly and kick their boards into an X in midair. CRISSCROSS. Ronnie Anne and her friends realize something] Ronnie Anne: "Hey, that's the crisscross. That's our move!" Carlos: "Is it? Well, don't worry. Ours is twice as fast. Show 'em." [Ronnie Anne and Sid go to the half-pipe and do the crisscross the same way they did in practice.] Sid & Ronnie Anne:[Dancing on their boards] "Oowa-oowa-ooh!" [They shuffle their feet and exchange boards twice. They scoop the boards up in the air and catch their other boards. A freeze frame of them grabbing the boards and punching the air with the caption 'X-TREME CRISSCROSS' shows on screen. Everyone cheers for them and the judges tabulate their scores. Tony realizes that was the move his team just did only more extreme, he grumbles. ROUND 2. Three members of Team Hawk are prepared to do a pyramid grinder, with two members holding the third up between them. They do their move. PYRAMID GRINDER] Sameer: "They're doing the pyramid grinder, too? What are the chances?" Carlos: "Pretty good, actually. But anyway, yours is different, it's upside-down." [Ronnie Anne and her friends realize he has a point. Nikki carries her two friends, Casey and Sameer across the grind rail. INVERSE PYRAMID TRIPLE KICKFLIP GRINDER. The crowd cheers and Tony grumbles again. ROUND 3. The last member of Team Hawk has her board ready. She spins across the grind rail holding it over her head. She launches herself, and suddenly whips out two extra boards, one in both hands and a third between her two feet. TRIPLE GHOST HELICOPTER. The judges are astonished. And Carlos is shocked] Carlos: "A triple ghost helicopter?! that wasn't in their practice!" Tony: "Yeah, a little birdie told me someone was spying on our practice." [Flashback to their practice, Sergio pops out of the tree and calls down to them] Flashback Sergio: "Can you do that trick again? I had my wing over the lens." [End of flashback] Tony: "So we worked on some new techniques. [Tony leaves. Carlos gasps and growls at the by far worst spy ever] Sergio:[Awkwardly chuckles] "Forgot to mention my cover was blown." [Carlos goes to his team, Laird is ready with two boards] Carlos: "Okay, team, the only way we can win this is with a quadruple ghost helicopter. Laird, can you handle it?" Laird:[Nervous] "Quadruple? As in four? [Nervously laughs and passes out] Ronnie Anne: "Well, there goes Laird." Announcer: "We're waiting on Team X! If they don't get going soon, they'll have to forfeit!" Carlos:[Panics, waving his fists] "No! I have to win this!" [Remembers] "I mean, we have to win this. Laird just needs some air. Sergio, get his feet." [They take Laird away] Nikki:[A little confused] "Air? Aren't we outside?" [They drop Laird behind some bushes, he's still sleeping. Carlos picks up a pile of red leaves and takes Laird's helmet and glasses] Carlos:[Stuffing the leaves in the helmet] "Sometimes you have to do things for the greater good of the team." Sergio:[Suspicious] "And by 'team', you mean you? Carlos: "Just stay here and watch Laird." [Carlos takes off. Meanwhile, Laird's friends are all waiting around] Ronnie Anne:[Looks over] "Laird's back." [Carlos disguised himself as Laird] Carlos:[Mimicking Laird's voice] "Let's do this!" [Takes out a board in each hand and has two more on the bottom of each foot. He starts spinning, creating a whirlwind. He jumps and spins across the grind rail and launches spinning all four boards on each hand and foot. QUADRUPLE GHOST HELICOPTER. The judges give him a perfect score] Announcer: "Woah! Perfect tens!" [Carlos lands and the announcer comes up to him with the trophy] "Team X wins!" [Carlos tosses the skateboards away and takes the trophy] Tony: "Wow, that was sick. You've got some serious potential!" [The rest of Team X pick Carlos up and cheer, still thinking he's Laird] Laird's Friends:[Tosses Carlos up, cheering] "Laird! Laird! Laird!" [Carlos reaches maximum height, and the helmet and glasses fall off. Carlos lands on the team] Ronnie Anne:[Realizes] "Tío Carlos?!" Tony:[Upset] "First you copy our moves, and now you're trying to cheat by dressing up as one of your skaters?" [Team X gasps] Ronnie Anne: "Tío Carlos, you stole their moves?" Nikki: "No wonder they were identical." Carlos: "No, I just… they were…" [Defeated] "Okay, fine. I stole them." [Angrily to Tony] "But he stole my career first!" Tony: "What?! I don't even know you." Carlos: "As if you don't remember, it was twenty years ago, the biggest skate competition of my life. And you pushed me so you could take me out!" [The skaters are still watching. The boys are having popcorn and a juicebox.] Sameer: "This is getting juicy." Casey: "Oh, I love drama." Tony:[Remembers] "Wait, you're Carlos X! Now I remember you, but that's not at all what happened. I was trying to high-five you." Carlos:[Not buying it] "Oh, yeah, right. I spent a year in a cast thanks to your 'high-five'!" Tony:[Getting annoyed] "It was a high-five!" Carlos: "Likely story!" Sergio:[Squawks] "I remember that. Even got it on video." Carlos & Tony: "Video?" Sergio: "Yep! I've been recording all the Casagrande's events since Carlos was in diapers." [Takes out a memory card and inserts it in his camera] "This one's a classic." [Flips the screen and shows the video from the day of the skate competition all those years ago. Carlos X skates out to the pit and waves around] Video Tony:[Approaches Carlos] "Rip it up, Carlos!" Video Carlos: "Thanks, bro. High-five!" [They attempt to high-five, but they miss, and Tony's hand slaps Carlos right in the face, accidentally throwing him in the pit. Tony even reaches out to catch Carlos before he falls but he's too late. End of video] Tony: "See? I was trying to high-five you but you missed!" Carlos:[A little embarrassed] "So you didn't push me and you didn't ruin my career." Tony: "Ruin your career? But I heard you became an award-winning scholar and professor." [Shows a news article about Carlos] Carlos: "Well, yes. And come to think of it, I spent that whole year I was in a cast in the library discovering my love of physics." Ronnie Anne: "Kind of sounds like Mr. Hawk helped your career." Carlos: "Huh, I guess you're right. All that studying really paid off!" [Softly to Tony] "Tony, I'm so sorry. This belongs to you and your team." [Gives the trophy back. To his own team] "Sorry, kids." Ronnie Anne: "It's okay, Tío Carlos. You did teach us some pretty cool moves. We'll see you next year, Mr. Hawk. [Offers her skateboard] Can you please sign my board?" [Ronnie Anne's friends ask for autographs too.] Ronnie Anne's friends: "Ooh!" "Ooh!" "Sign mine, too!" "Me, too! Me, too! Me, too!" [Tony happily obliges] Tony: "And Carlos X, maybe you can teach me that quadruple helicopter spin sometime." Carlos: "Sure, but please call me professor Carlos X."
[The next day… Tony straps on a glove, pulls out a wedgie and puts on his helmet. He and Carlos each have four boards. They spin across the grin rail and launch spinning all the boards. QUADRUPLE GHOST HELICOPTER X2. Their teams cheer for them as they land] Carlos: "You got it!" Tony: "That was awesome! High-five!" [They miss again. Carlos is accidentally slapped in the face and falls in the pit again] Sergio:[Still has his camera, approaches Carlos and squawks] "Aw, my wing was over the lens. Can you do it again?"
