Quotes 

• Sascha Thomas : You all sound quite pleased with yourselves. Which is astonishing, considering the appalling mess we just witnessed. As of now, "Moulin Boheme" is on track to being the worst ballet the National has ever produced. Alistair?

  Alistair Woodford : Sascha's taken a lot of chances on all of you, including gifting you, Ashley, with your first role as a principal. But I can read your reviews now; "Lackluster, labored, and dull."

  Sascha Thomas : Tina. This is your first solo, yes? After all these years.

  [giving her a soft slap on the cheek] 

  Sascha Thomas : Dehlia, this is your first performance with us. Unless things improve... it will be both of your farewells. We open in one week.

  Alistair Woodford : Start performing as if you belong here, or you will no longer be here. Understood?

  [murmured responses as they leave] 

  Dehlia : What just happened?

  Brad : That's their idea of a pep talk. Don't worry, you're amazing.

• Alistair Woodford : This is Sascha Thomas, our choreographer.

  Olivia Benson : Captain Benson.

  Alistair Woodford : I filled him in.

  Sascha Thomas : Yeah. And I'm working around three male dancers being unavailable this afternoon because they're sitting in detention at your station.

  Olivia Benson : They may be unavailable longer than that.

  Sascha Thomas : Oh, come on, now. There's no one sexier than young dancers. Get enough of them in a room together, this is what happens.

  Alistair Woodford : Sascha, this is more than just boys being boys.

  Sascha Thomas : Yeah, I get it, yes. We'll make sure that whatever's been happening stops now. And it won't happen again.

  Olivia Benson : Well, depending on where this goes, they could be looking at prison time.

  Sascha Thomas : Hmm, well... that does not work, because we have a premiere in three days. We're talking hundreds of jobs, weeks of rehearsal, millions of dollars on the line.

  Olivia Benson : Piece of advice? Let's set aside some time for understudies.
