In an empty gym, Tess
"coaches" Monica on their next assignment. They are
interrupted by the arrival of Nadia Comaneci and Bart Conner, who will
cover the gymnastics competition for a TV station. Andrew appears
after they leave, and the angels then observe the Browner family.
Rebecca Browner is a gifted gymnast, whose mother, Sandra pushes her
to excel. Unfortunately, her younger brother, T. J. feels neglected.
He and another gymnast's brother dub themselves the
"Nobodies" and visit a skate park. Andrew, the park's
supervisor, is concerned by T. J.'s disregard for safety equipment.
Meanwhile, Monica, Rebecca's new assistant coach, learns she is highly
driven and has never fallen during a competition. Displeased that the
television crew has ignored her daughter, Sandra complains to Tess,
the segment producer. T. J. steals money from Andrew's cash register
to visit the house where his family lived before his father died. He
later confesses to Andrew, who makes him work off his debt. Sandra is
unhappy to find him doing chores at the skate park. Back at the hotel,
he tells his mother he "borrowed" the money to see a movie,
but his sister sees through his lie. T. J. angrily exits, and Rebecca
also leaves. Sandra later yells at her daughter for missing a meeting
with a potential sponsor. Rebecca confides in Monica that she visited
the family's former home. The angel urges the girl to recapture the
joy of gymnastics. Returning to the skate park, T. J. ignores Andrew's
warning to wear a helmet and has an accident. At the hospital, Tess
reveals herself to Sandra, advising her to grieve her late husband
rather than immersing herself in her daughter's career. Sandra then
urges Rebecca to do her best for herself--no one else. While
competing, Rebecca falls. Monica reveals herself and tells the gymnast
she is never alone and that her father is with God and proud of her.
She finishes the routine with grace, T. J. regains consciousness, and
Sandra decides to move her family back into their old house.
