Break Dance Script Extended and Deleted Scenes - Trivia of the Week


The script for the Season 3 episode "Break Dance" is now available to read and download.

Interesting points are: This episode is also known as "Breaking up that old gang of mine" and that the role Michael Delorenzo takes was actually written for Leroy (although I always suspected that) in fact in the script all the lines still say Leroy next to them and Michael originally only had a small part. 



The Scenes in the make up room where Danny asks Leroy to coach the gang has additional additional lines for Coco and Danny. 




After Coco Tells Leroy about the Road Company offer there is a deleted scene between Bruno and Shorofsky. 




The scene where Danny gets Michael/Leroy to agree to coach the Enforcers has a couple of extra lines in the script.
