Alex goes to the Conservatory to ask for an application form for an audition, but walks out when she realises that she lacks any formal dance training, and will have to leave that section of the form blank. Alex’s mentor is a retired ballet dancer named Hanna Long, who encourages Alex to persue her dream of becoming a professional ballet dancer. After Jeanie falls twice while autioning for an ice show, she loses confidences in herself and becomes a dancer at The Zanzibar, where she performs in the nude, and Alex goes to the strip club to rescue Jeanie.

Alex and Nick become lovers, but she later learns that he has an ex-wife Katie, and they have a hostile encounter in a local restaurant. Nick uses his contacts at the Conservatory to secure an audition for Alex, and just before the audition she goes to Hanna’s house and learns that Hanna dies the previous night.

At the audition, Alex falls at the beginning of her routine, but starts over and completes the routine successfully. In the final scene, Alec runs out of the Conservatory building with a smile on her face and is hugged by Nick, who gives her a bouquet of red roses. She gives a rose to him, and the film ends with a freeze frame. Serviced City Pads supply apartments throughout London.
