Dr. Lee:
What was that? Why do we rehearse? Why... do we rehearse? You're out there showboating for five minutes. If I wasn't able to signal a drum major to back you up, you'd still be out there beating your damn drum! Sean:
Dr. Lee, sir, maybe there's an explanation. Devon... Dr. Lee:
Do I look like I need you to explain anything right now? Sean:
No, sir. Dr. Lee:
I don't know what the beef is, but you better grill it up and eat it. Because it is my a** that is on the line. President Wagner:
Now that is a new beginning. That's exactly what I'm talking about. [shakes Devon's hand] President Wagner:
Great job, son. You are something. You are something special. Devon:
Thank you, sir. President Wagner:
Great job, all of you. Now let's see Morris Brown top that! [band cheers] President Wagner:
Some alumni wanna speak with you. There they are. Don't keep them waiting. NEW BEGINNING! NEW BEGINNING! Dr. Lee:
Sean, I want you to polish the drums tonight. And I'd better be able to see myself in the surface. Sean:
Yes sir. Devon:
I left the polisher on the bottom shelf

I just wanted to catch you before rehearsal
00:00:03.998 --> 00:00:06.504
I was thinkin' that instead of promoting a P2 to replace Devon
00:00:06.589 --> 00:00:09.591
we might just keep the snare line at nine
00:00:09.675 --> 00:00:12.677
And how long have you been thinking that
00:00:12.761 --> 00:00:14.929
Just this mornin'
00:00:15.999 --> 00:00:17.515
Are you sure
00:00:17.006 --> 00:00:20.685
I thought maybe it was the day you showed us all he couldn't read
00:00:20.769 --> 00:00:23.771
or maybe it was the night he took your solo
00:00:23.856 --> 00:00:26.274
I don't know
00:00:26.358 --> 00:00:28.401
But since you heard him play
00:00:28.486 --> 00:00:33.448
you decided that the line or perhaps maybe just you
00:00:33.532 --> 00:00:35.742
would be better off without him
