Troy's best friend Chad and Gabriella's new friend Taylor discourage them from moving forward with their plans.  But it's Ryan and his sister Sharpay—considered the school's top theatrical talents—who really try to thwart their efforts.  Find out how Gabriella and Troy's decision to audition turns their worlds and their school upside down!
