  152. 6:08i don't want to fight with you kelly but
  153. 6:10i think it's important that she learned

  155. 6:13here with the notebook
  156. 6:13she's part of the team she should be
  157. 6:15here paige is out for four to six weeks
  158. 6:18i have no idea how this is going to help
  159. 6:20us for nationals having one member of
  160. 6:22your team down
  161. 6:23but you know what the show must go on
  162. 6:28my baby's broken oh i cannot believe she
  163. 6:31broke her foot
  164. 6:32abby said oh well that's a bummer
  165. 6:34because you finally got your duet with
  166. 6:36chloe
  167. 6:37uh-huh i think that upset her here two
  168. 6:40three four i think brooke's hip hurts
  169. 6:43yeah brooke's back and hip definitely
  170. 6:46are hurting
  171. 6:47i'm watching brooke doing group
  172. 6:48rehearsals and i see her holding her
  173. 6:50back
  174. 6:51and i could just tell by her face that
  175. 6:53she's in pain her solo this week
  176. 6:54is an acro number and if her back's
  177. 6:56bothering her i don't know how she's
  178. 6:57going to do it
  179. 6:58at brooke's age most people stop doing
  180. 7:00acro your body just
  181. 7:02doesn't bend that way so what do you
  182. 7:04think abby's body tells her
  183. 7:05stop eating
  184. 7:09kendall and i were not invited to the
  185. 7:12pyramid because
  186. 7:13abby still refuses to put kendall on the
  187. 7:15team we're here strictly
  188. 7:17to take dance classes i just need to be

  350. 13:01anne frank but
  351. 13:02what i do know is that i don't think she
  352. 13:05was doing cartwheels
  353. 13:07there's a lot that goes into this piece
  354. 13:09and i'm watching brooke

  358. 13:16should dance i took brook to a
  359. 13:18chiropractor and
  360. 13:19he thinks that brooke needs to rest and
  361. 13:22i totally agree
  362. 13:23why can't brooke do a dance with no
  363. 13:26acrobatics in her dance

  382. 14:08she's really improving
  383. 14:09as a dancer as a performer and as an
  384. 14:12acrobat
  385. 14:13you need to get this choreography in
  386. 14:14your head go into the other room and
  387. 14:16start working on it
  388. 14:17no tumbling
  389. 14:20hi guys oh god here comes jill
  390. 14:24she and kendall aren't even on the team
  391. 14:26but we know joe well enough to know that
  392. 14:27the absence of an invitation isn't gonna
  393. 14:29stop her from showing up
  394. 14:31hey so kendall i'm looking for a
  395. 14:34replacement
  396. 14:35for the duet for paige abby's having
  397. 14:38auditions for the duet which i think is

  400. 14:44candle
  401. 14:44oh for the love of god maddie is not
  402. 14:48auditioning because

  405. 14:52and nia do it
  406. 15:03mia some things are great
  407. 15:06i just think that you don't look that
  408. 15:08great with her like it's a little off
  409. 15:10it's a little quirky
  410. 15:11you don't dance exactly the same
  411. 15:14you dance very much different
  412. 15:17all right let me see you and kendall and
  413. 15:20one
  414. 15:24i'm a little unclear did abby call you
  415. 15:27yeah say to come back
  416. 15:29no she told me get get the kid in class
  417. 15:31so she's here in class
  418. 15:38do you think i went to abby and said put
  419. 15:40her in the duet
  420. 15:41if abby does it's because abby wanted
  421. 15:43her in there why couldn't you say wow
  422. 15:45what a nice thing for kendall if she's
  423. 15:46selected i don't think it's fair for her
  424. 15:48to be put in the because well i don't
  425. 15:50again you guys are so selfish
  426. 16:01you're saying you know we should be
  427. 16:03pleased and happy for her but it's at
  428. 16:04the expense of one of our children who
  429. 16:06have sacrificed so much to be here
  430. 16:09it's just they're already on the team
  431. 16:11you're not part of our team
  432. 16:14i take all their snide remarks and all
  433. 16:16their bullying and all their criticism
  434. 16:18but you know what this is about a mother
  435. 16:21doing what's best
  436. 16:22for her daughter neil you can't just say
  437. 16:25something if it's like she looks
  438. 16:27perfectly fine
  439. 16:28you are marching your butt down there if
  440. 16:30i have to push you down those steps
  441. 16:32my daughter has been there day in and
  442. 16:35day
  443. 16:36out i think a lot of abby's practices
  444. 16:40are unfair what's going on with the
  445. 16:43dubai dobby
  446. 16:44kendall was in class in the other room i
  447. 16:46went and got her
  448. 16:49nia was doing it she was doing it well i
  449. 16:51gave her some corrections
  450. 16:52kendall has been gone several weeks
  451. 16:55she just came back my child has been
  452. 16:58here throughout
  453. 17:00she may not be right for the duet she's
  454. 17:02never right for those special parts
  455. 17:04unless she's lifting mckinsey
  456. 17:06holly just doesn't understand this is
  457. 17:08strictly about my best chance at winning
  458. 17:10there's lots of things that she could do
  459. 17:12right but they're not the duet music
  460. 17:13that i have this week why don't you find
  461. 17:15something
  462. 17:15she can do something with the 60s she
  463. 17:17could do something
  464. 17:18with popping locking she could do all
  465. 17:20sorts of different things i agree with
  466. 17:22you but you know what
  467. 17:23it's a duet with chloe that wasn't the
  468. 17:26plan i wasn't seeking music
  469. 17:28for nia i was seeking music for chloe
  470. 17:31no need to get all belligerent and
  471. 17:33indignant with me i
  472. 17:34am because i think you know better no i
  473. 17:36think you look foolish
  474. 17:38this is strictly about what's right for
  475. 17:40the duet
  476. 17:42not about what you want nia will get the
  477. 17:44duet
  478. 17:45only if i think she's my best shot at
  479. 17:48winning
  480. 17:51coming up on dance moms you worked on
  481. 17:54this number while you were doing drop
  482. 17:55dead diva
  483. 17:56you did it she looked like she forgot a
  484. 17:58little part i think it's kind of funny
  485. 18:00that wherever you go
  486. 18:01someone mysteriously like breaks a foot
  487. 18:14let's balance hey
  488. 18:15[Music]
  489. 18:17chargemont see you soon this week has
  490. 18:21been tough
  491. 18:22paige is out with the foot injury rooney
  492. 18:25brooke
  493. 18:25is whining about the back pain and
  494. 18:28maddie is away
  495. 18:29doing a roll for drop dead diva this
  496. 18:31group number is a mess
  497. 18:33and it needs all the help it can get so
  498. 18:36i'm putting
  499. 18:37kendall in the group number one she's
  500. 18:39still not a member of this team
  501. 18:41and i'm not sure about the duet with
  502. 18:42chloe yet but at least if i put her in
  503. 18:44the group number
  504. 18:45maybe jill would get off my back up
  505. 18:48step leap onto it one
  506. 18:52two three four five six seven eight
  507. 18:55i think that with abby knowing brooke's
  508. 18:58back is injured
  509. 18:59she would have made the executive
  510. 19:01decision to say
  511. 19:02you know what brooke's going to do a
  512. 19:04dance this week with no acro in it to
  513. 19:06let her back
  514. 19:07russ let someone else do a solo give her
  515. 19:09back a break
  516. 19:11are you always hearing love of god i'm
  517. 19:14just saying would that
  518. 19:15not make sense give the kid a break
  519. 19:16there's other kids not
  520. 19:18dancing solos you know i think it's kind
  521. 19:20of funny that wherever you go
  522. 19:22someone mysteriously like breaks a foot
  523. 19:26these moms can laugh at me and make all
  524. 19:28the snippy comments that they want but
  525. 19:29i'm not gonna let them
  526. 19:30stop me on getting kendall back on this
  527. 19:32team all right ladies we have two days
  528. 19:35i don't know does this damn time what it
  529. 19:36takes i don't think so
  530. 19:39you have to get into it you need to be
  531. 19:40fabulous let's go
  532. 19:42two days they're still late they're
  533. 19:45still sloppy

  535. 19:49elbows are dropping
  536. 19:50i mean girls come on so where is maddie
  537. 19:54well maddie's doing the drop dead diva
  538. 19:55thing
  539. 19:56this is a professional job does she get
  540. 19:57paid for it i think when melissa comes
  541. 20:00back she'll be very hush-hush about it
  542. 20:02but she'll want us to ask
  543. 20:03right but i don't think she'll want to
  544. 20:04reveal too too much
  545. 20:06[Music]
  546. 20:11maddie and i are getting ready to film
  547. 20:13drop dead diva
  548. 20:15we're on the way to the sound stage
  549. 20:16right now we're so excited
  550. 20:18i just know she's going to nail her
  551. 20:19acting performance just like she does in

  553. 20:24i'm really excited to be shooting my
  554. 20:26scenes for drop dead diva
  555. 20:28they had me do a lot of takes over and
  556. 20:30over and i actually
  557. 20:31like that because i like to do

  560. 20:38maddie get into her character
  561. 20:39i'm really happy for her but it's too
  562. 20:41bad that the other girls and moms can't

  564. 20:43as well
  565. 20:52[Music]
  566. 20:55i need to make a decision on who's doing

  569. 21:01back nia
  570. 21:02works hard but she doesn't really fit in
  571. 21:04with chloe

  573. 21:08be kendall
  574. 21:09kendo you're in the duet i'm really
  575. 21:12excited to do a duet with chloe

  799. 31:40know what else i can do
  800. 31:42i can't let her hurt herself to do dance
  801. 31:46it's obviously hurting her that she
  802. 31:49can't do it
  803. 31:50i want her to do it she wants to do it
  804. 31:52but i don't think she can
  805. 31:55i wish kelly would have pulled brook
  806. 31:57solo earlier because then maybe kendall
  807. 31:59would be dancing a solo today as well
  808. 32:02look you know it didn't have anything to
  809. 32:04do with all those other girls there
  810. 32:05warming up
  811. 32:06abby it was hurting before we even came
  812. 32:09to this building
  813. 32:10i think kelly and brooke have it all
  814. 32:12cooked up they're gonna pull this number
  815. 32:14because she knows that there are really
  816. 32:17great dancers here
  817. 32:18she does not want to get on that stage
  818. 32:20and not win
  819. 32:23brooke if you are going to continue to
  820. 32:25stand like a three-year-old with that
  821. 32:27sway back
  822. 32:28your back is gonna hurt you and i both
  823. 32:30know
  824. 32:31that lazy gets you nowhere
  825. 32:34i gave you an amazing number and now
  826. 32:37you're not gonna do it no one's ever
  827. 32:38gonna see it
  828. 32:39she can't do it i told you guys before
  829. 32:42you make choices every single day make
  830. 32:45the right one
  831. 32:46i can't let her hurt herself to do a
  832. 32:48dance i'm sorry
  833. 32:50her health is more important
  834. 32:53i think it's a really hard call as a mom
  835. 32:55to pull your daughter's dance
  836. 32:56but in this situation i think kelly is
  837. 32:59definitely doing the right thing by
  838. 33:01telling abby
  839. 33:01she can't dance
  840. 33:07coming up on dance moms daughter's a
  841. 33:09little snake

  961. 39:46these girls have just danced their heart
