they won't all hate you again this time, not again. Class, this is Mary. Please give her a warm welcome. Mary, why don't you tell the class a little bit about yourself? Um, hi, I'm Mary. Um, I was born here in America, but both of my parents were born in Japan. Um, my dad moves around a lot, so I've lived in all parts of the world as well as all parts of America. Um, uh, we just moved. You're from Chicago, actually. I, uh, um, I really like anime. Um, Miyazaki, obviously. U Makoto Shinkai, obviously. She likes anime. What a walking stereotype. Sydney, quiet just a moment, class. Mary, find a seat, and I'll be right back. [Music] O those Rags aai, it's so look at me. I'm trying so hard to look like I'm not trying. At least I don't have to worry about the new girl taking best dress from [Music] me. Don't listen to them. We love your look, don't we, girls? The makeup, on the other hand, it's okay. We can help you so

your first generation too. I'm sorry, I only know a couple of words here and there. Um, I do really like anime though. I actually draw my own. I'm submitting them to the doomi competition. What the doomi competition? I'm submitting to the same competition. [Music] Oh wow, these are amazing. So are yours. I'm inspired by Avatar. It's my favorite show. Avatar? You're kidding. It's not even real anime. What do you mean? Of course, it's real anime. It wasn't even created in Japan. It's basically just two American white dudes. It's like getting Sushi from McDonald's. I don't know if it's that bad. Oh, it is that bad. But I get it. You don't know much about our culture. You don't even speak the language. You're like a banana, yellow on the outside, but white on the inside. What are you going to say next? I'm into cheerleading. Actually, I am. I used to be on my old school's team. [Music] You know there's an empty table right.

there for [Music] you banana banana okay class where were we of them that's [Music] honey sorry I thought I was alone no apologies necessary. I've thrown my lunch plenty. I'll go someplace else. Hey, I understand the confusion, but I don't own this library. As far as I'm concerned, students can come and go as they please during regular school hours, of course. Uh, do you want to study with me? I'm uh, just using my free period 'cause I have no free time after school with practice and everything. So, I like your shirt. You do? Yeah, your whole look actually. Actually, it reminds me of this one anime character. I mean that in the best way. I'm a bit of an anime geek. I hope you don't hold that against me. Not at all. I am too actually. Really? Do you like Avatar? I love Avatar. Sweet. Um, do you want some? It's a little messy. Way better this way. Tons more flavor. M mhm mhm. Delicious. Could you pack me a lunch this

blows my mom's PB&J out of the water, kidding, kind of. What are you doing here? I thought you stuck with your own kind. Well, I uh, I hope I see you around. You should see what I'm wearing to the dance. You're going to have trouble keeping your eyes in your skull and your jaw off the floor. Okay, so how was your first day at school? Did you make any new friends? Did you try out for cheer? Tryouts are tomorrow, but I don't think I'm going to go. What? Why not? I just don't fit. At least at my old school, the cheerleaders gave me a chance, but they only liked me 'cause I was a good tumbler. Here, they hate me already. For what? What kind of talk is that? We only want to help you. We're on your [Music] side. Well, the truth is, if I like cheer, I'm too white. If I like anime, I am too Asian. But even the anime that I like isn't Asian enough or whatever. It's just too

much stress. I'm not going to draw anymore, and I'm not going to cheer either. Wait, wait a minute. Don't you like to hear it? Do you like anime? Then why on Earth would you quit something you like doing just because you don't fit? Yeah, I guess. Yeah. What I want you to wear that shirt to school tomorrow. It's your shirt. I know it's my favorite shirt. You don't like it. It's fine, but I don't want to wear it. I want you to wear that tomorrow. No, no, Dad. It's your style. Exactly. My style doesn't suit you because you have your own style. My shirt doesn't fit you, and your style doesn't fit me. And so what if your style doesn't fit others? You are you, and you're wonderful. So please, sweetheart, don't ever let anyone try to fit you in a box, labeling you one thing or another. There's an old saying: don't ever limit yourself to anything less than what you are, and what you are is wonderful. Thanks.

Dad, we need to get it together. We're going against the Tigers at this year's competition, and we always beat them 'cause we're amazing, and they're not. But that doesn't mean we get to go there and be sloppy, okay? Oh hi, Mary. Are you lost or something? Lost? Yeah. Are you going to the K Fu Dojo or something? Um, no. I'm here to try out for cheer. Oh, I'm sorry. I've just never seen an Asian cheerleader before. I suppose everyone gets a shot. All right, and from the rest of you, show me what you've got [Music]. Hey [Music]. Okay, okay, good job, ladies. Karen, Kelly, Cara, welcome to the [Applause] team. Oh, Mary, you just don't quite fit our aesthetic. Maybe you should try out for origami or [Music] something. You're crying a Priceless. I thought you were joking when you said you wanted to try out for cheering. I didn't think you actually wanted to be a part of this pasty parade.

you really are a banana. You might as well have a Starbucks gold card and prance around in a pair of Ugg boots. [Music] Hey, are you okay? Um, yeah. I just got a bug in my eye or something. Oh, well, listen, I um, wanted to apologize. The way Sydney was acting in the library. You don't have to apologize for your girlfriend. Girlfriend? No, no, no, no. Sydney's not my girlfriend. She's not? No, no, no. She's not even my type. What's your type then? I don't know. I guess I never really thought too much about it. I just know Sydney's definitely not it. And maybe I haven't even met her yet. Until 6th period yesterday in the library. Are you doing anything this [Music] weekend? Yeah, yes, of course. I say check it out. Sid looks like the new girl stole your guy. What are you going to do about it? Watch when. Hey guys, I'm so sorry. Oh my gosh, how clumsy of me. U, let me help you wash that.

off simy. It's okay. It's okay. I can clean myself up. Mistakes happen. I'm not going to help clean you up. As if you know that Finn doesn't actually like you. Where he talks about going to the dance together. Consider me telling you this a favor. He's just curious, so don't get your hopes up too high. Curious about what? What it's like to hang out with an Asian. And once that curiosity is quenched, he'll toss you aside like the Kung Fu trash that you are. Oh, and Mary, that stain makes your stupid outfit look better. [Music] [Laughter] Really, are you okay? Good. I'm so sorry about that. I'm going to go get the car so you don't have to walk far like that. Stay here, okay? Are you out with that white boy? You know white guys don't respect other cultures. You're just going to completely erase your family's culture and ancestry if you have a family with some hakin. You are such a sellout. Where's

your pride. That's what you get for dating a broke white guy. If you dated an Asian, at least you'll be going home in the Beamer or [Music] Ben. Oh, did they say something to you? What happened? It's nothing. Um, you know what? Thanks for offering a ride, but I think I'm just going to walk alone. At least let me walk with you. It's okay. Um, it's not that far. I-I'll be fine. Just look, I'm sorry if people are giving you trouble for hanging out with me. The school is so clicky, and it's stupid, honestly. You shouldn't care about any of that. What you should care about is that I like you a lot, Mary, and I hope you like me [Music] too. I'm sorry. I think it's best that we don't see each other anymore. I got to go. Oh, oh, oh, good honey, you're home. We have something to tell you, honey. What's wrong? I have something to tell you too. You go first. Are you

sure okay well my job is moving again, and unfortunately, that means that we have to move again too. You have to start school all over again, a new one. So sorry, really. Yes, that's fantastic. It is. Yes, my news was that I don't ever want to go to this stupid school anymore. Anyways, this is the best news ever. Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you. This is amazing. I'll start packing right [Music] now. Look, this here is actually something we're very proud of. Do you cheer? I did. Oh, our team is almost always coming in first, and this is the year we will beat Bookside. Go Tigers, huh? Anyway, um, uh, you'd be welcome to join the team if you like. She loves cheer. You should try out for the team here, sweetheart. No, I think I'm done with all that. My God, we're in anime at this [Music] [Music] age because I think cheering really is the defining thing in popularity. Oh my gosh, I can't believe it. Girl, that I used to go to school with.

Mary just joined. Talk about somebody who had a little trouble fitting in. She like lowkey disappeared from our school. I don't know, maybe she got shipped off from whatever country her parents were from, though they probably reject her too. She was so bad at being Asian that even the Asians at my school hated her. Obviously, she likes anime. You're a walking stereotype of those Rags. You're like a banana, yellow on the outside but white on the inside. I thought you were joking when you said you wanted to try out for cheering. I didn't think you actually wanted to be a part of this pasty parade. Consider me telling you this a favor. He's just curious, so don't get your hopes up too high. You are such a sellout. Where's your pride? [Music] Mary, stop. Please stop, sweetheart. What's wrong? Stupid cheer and Instagram and school. I just don't fit. I don't fit in at any school. I just want to be homeschooled. Homeschooled, honey? You haven't even started your new school yet. You won't

hear the same thing that you heard at your old school. Yes, I will. You don't know that this new school looks even worse than the old one. There is no one who looks like me there. I am the only Asian girl in this whole school. Honey, you have to give your new school a chance. At least I don't want to just put me in home school, Mom. I'm begging you. Well, I'll make a deal with you. You try this new school for a week. If you don't like it, I will get you homeschooled. Okay, okay. Oh, I hope these can be taped together for the competition. I already told you not entering the [Music] competition. Such a shame. They're so beautiful. You could have won. Come out for dinner soon. Okay, all [Music]. Oh, sorry. I didn't realize this was your table. I'll go wait. Stop. You don't have to go. We were just seeing if you're okay and wanted to sit with you. What do you mean if I'm okay? Well, don't take this

the wrong way, but your hair. What about it? Why did you change so much about yourself when you were touring the school with your parents? Allie and I saw you in the hall. We were so excited about having someone like you here at the school. Someone like me. Gosh, I feel like such a jerk. I don't mean to offend you at all. What Kristen's trying to say is, if you haven't already noticed, this school's pretty one-note, if you catch my drift. I noticed. That's why I was trying so hard to fit in. No offense, but why would you want to fit in? Yeah, I mean, we've got enough of that here. Basically, what we're trying to say is that having your own style is totally cool. It's like that saying, Don't limit yourself to anything less than what you are, and what you are is wonderful. My dad told me that not too long ago. Just be yourself and do you. People will love you for that here. Hey guys, you want to come me? [Music]

her and I'm out the door. The high life I've been waiting [Music] for. No, got no name. Ching my again again. Living the moment till I die and I'm going to chase and I'm going to chase. I know we can't ignore it no matter how hard we try and I'm going to chase it and I'm going CH heart oo. Better watch out, looks like these losers got themselves a secret weapon. I can't believe they were stupid enough to let you on their team. I am so excited to win this year, especially now knowing that you're the reason why their sorry team is getting dragged further into the [Music] trash. I know what you're going to say, don't listen to her, her, she's no. I was going to say remember it all 'cause it's going to be awesome when she's choking on every single word. Let's go win this [Music] thing once again, the Vikings and now the Jefferson High Tigers. [Applause] [Music]

[Applause] hey you walk my [Music] [Applause] wow amazing job both teams. I think there's no question the winner of this year's cheerleading competition, the Jefferson High School Tigers. Just because you won, you should know deep down that these people will never accept you. You are a freak. You'll never belong. They're only hanging out with you to meet some recreation quota. Actually, you're the freak. Freak Mary is one of the sweetest, coolest, most talented people I've ever met. You're pretty, I'll give you that, but from what I've heard and now seen, you're rotting on the inside, and soon, trust me, it's going to show up on that pretty little face of yours with a big outbreak of stress acne. I come on [Music] ladies. Wow, I wish I had as much courage as you. You do. You just need to speak your mind and stand up for yourself. Thanks for having my back, Ally. I'm really glad we met. I'm going to go change and see my

parents, and then I'll meet you guys outside. [Music] Congratulations, you won the cheer competition. What a joke. You'll never fit in with us. You're a fake. That's right. Don't say anything that you love fake is trying to gatekeep your version of a culture from anyone slightly different than you. Instead of realizing that people are more than just one thing, maybe you don't like my style of clothes or what I watch, but I have nothing to be ashamed of. This is me, and I'm proud of who I am. Whatever, Hannah Banana, stay in your lane. I can't believe you ever thought you could compete with me in the anime competition. Stop pretending to be [Music] Asian, sweetheart. You are amazing. Yes, and it keeps getting better. It arrived yesterday in the mail after you left. It's from the anime competition. Anime competition? But I didn't even submit my drawings. I tore them up. I taped them back together and submitted them with a statement saying that being ripped in half and being taped back together symbolizes being

torn between two different cultures, and technically, it's true what I can't believe this is happening. I won. I guess the judges loved it. We're so proud of you, sweetheart. I can't believe this. If you won, then that would mean rejected the competition, rejected me. It's like I'm more accepted by Asian culture than you thought a who's that. Let's just say someone I used to know well. So, should we all go out and celebrate? Um, sure, as long as I can bring a date. Mom, Dad, this is Finn. Hello. Hi, pleased to meet you. You were incredible out there. So, um, is there any place you have in mind in particular for dinner, Finn? Applebee's? Denny's? Actually, I was thinking Sushi. Yeah, yeah. [Music]
