Ollie then begins to help Sammy take his ballet from "embarrassing" to "competent. Ollie takes him and Christian, as this town is where Christian's dad lives. Sammy and Ollie discover on this trip that they have feelings for each other after denying it for a while.
Sammy asks Ollie to assist the Second Years in a hip-hop battle against the First Years by being the judge and giving pointers, stating that Ollie is the best hip-hop dancer at the academy and apologizes to Christian. Later on, Sammy surprise kisses Ollie before the battle after coming to the conclusion he loves him. Ollie without permission of Sammy begins to tell people about their "hidden" relationship, much to Sammy's annoyance. Sammy and Ollie have an on and off rocky relationship, often getting into many disagreements and arguments.
Ollie helps Sammy cope by joking, making Sammy let all of his anger out, or having days only to Sammy. A couple days before the day of the Prix De Fonteyn day Sammy dies , Sammy breaks up with Ollie because Ollie didn't treat them like equals, always wanting to be much better than Sammy.
After the death of Sammy, Ollie is heartbroken. He, along with Abigail, especially feel torn the night of Sammy's memoriam on the beach when Christian reads Sammy's list of things he wants to do in life from 50 to 1, number 3 being "fall in love so my heart takes over from my head". Ollie and Christian meet up to talk about what they could've each done to prevent Sammy's death. When movie star Rhys O'Leary comes to town and starts to fall for Ollie, Ollie comes to the conclusion that he can't hold himself back anymore because of Sammy's death and that it is time to move on.
Grace and Sammy are Pas de Deux partners. Grace doesn't really show much emotion to Sammy and is actually quite indifferent to him. She didn't shed a single tear upon Sammy's death.
Though she was seen in one of the final episodes, where Tara, Kat, Christian, Ben, and the rest of the gang were celebrating their memorial to Sammy, she did look a little sad, but then walked away. After that, she didn't show any emotions at all towards anyone. In the whole time she was on the show, Grace was really portrayed as an emotionless person.
In the season finale of dance academy, Grace said that she would dedicate her solo to Sammy, but was only saying this to make herself look sympathetic. Sammy's father and brother come to watch him perform though only seeing his contemporary solo. Sammy doesn't do too well in the Classical round, only scoring 6.
Sammy still doesn't feel too happy about this. When his father and brother surprise him, Sammy tries to keep it a secret until Ollie accidentally reveals this. His father unexpectedly takes this very well. During the contemporary round, Slade who was a snobby character and often said "The Slade has spoken" decided to sabotage Sammy's performance. During Sammy's contemporary piece, Slade pulls the plug on the music secretly, leaving Sammy, the judges, his father and brother and the audience confused.
Fortunately, Christian and Ben catch on to the act and lock Slade away in a closet. Sammy tells the audience to imagine the music and restarts his solo, silently. Tara manages to plug the music back in just as Sammy reaches the peak of the solo.
The results are announced, with Tara winning in the girls section and Grace coming in second , and Slade coming second though he as unable to collect his medal, being still stuck in the closet and Sammy winning in the boys section. Sammy, who is nervous and excited at the same time, is banned from dancing two days before the Prix alongside Tara, in order to rest for the competition.
Sammy asks Christian to go jogging with him, but Christian declines. Later, during the competition in the class section, Tara notes that Sammy is missing and asks Slade to call him saying she wants him there. Slade agrees and goes to do so however he cannot get through to him through the phone. Christian is seen with a "good luck" card while an ambulance siren can be heard in the background.
He is then seen running to the Opera House to see Tara to tell her he loves her, but on the way, he walks past a man in a chicken suit who is getting questioned by police this man was also seen handing Sammy a paper flyer. He does not think much of it, but when h. Christian, however, insists that Zach tell him on the phone what is wrong.
When Tara finishes the class section, Christian greets her and sadly informs her that while Sammy was out jogging, he was accidentally hit by a car. At first, Tara just asks if he broke any bones and if he will be able to dance, but Christian is quiet for a while and Tara realizes something is wrong.
Christian then says that Sammy died from his injuries on the way to the hospital. A scene is then shown of Tara walking into the lounge room of the academy with all the students around including Ollie and Kat who is crying to Miss Raine that, "We are his family! The two of them go and find her fully clothed in the shower with the water running crying.
They pull her out of the shower hugging her. One of the final scenes is of the group and Ollie all sleeping in Sammy and Chrisitan's room even though this is not normally allowed, the teachers allowed it because of the circumstance. The news greatly affected all students, especially his friends and teachers. Tara is then seeing going to a nearby park, alone, during the middle of the night to listen to the voice message Sammy sent to her moments before his untimely death.
The group of friends hold a memorial for Sammy at the beach. I'd give anything for this awful emptiness to go away. And, more than anything, I don't want to say good-bye. So I won't. I'll just say thank you There's no need to say good-bye when you'll remember forever. Rain telling Tara to use her emotion in dance: The only thing that would have made this scene better is if Ms. Rain had laid her hand on Tara's heart and said, "Feel the rhythm!
And that song, in case you were wondering, is "Easy to Love" by the Jezabels. Hey, is it possible to wear out tracks on Spotify? And then Abigail and Ethan went to Spain, and Christian left with his dad, and Kat and Tara are going to the farm where we better see more baby kangaroos , and Grace decided to return to the academy. I hope Saskia comes back too, just so she can break Grace's back into a bazillion pieces and then everyone can dance upon them and grind the pieces into dust with their toe shoes.
Obviously, the loss of Sammy was the most pivotal moment of Season Two, but here are some great, less depressing ones:. Now it's time to turn this convo over to y'all in the comments. What do you hope happens next season? My preferred method is creating internet fan art in his memory.
