0:00Previously on Dance Moms. It's key
0:02dating. I mean someone to rub my feet.
0:06Replace us, that's fine. Chloe is
0:08suspended, so is her mother. And the
0:09duet will be Kendall and Nia. Where's
0:13Jill? Having a private with Kendall.
0:15Hey, I guess you didn't expect to see me
0:17up here, huh? Anything to move Kendall
0:20up that spot.
0:21feel like we're being a team.
0:22I think you two have a big hole to dig
0:24yourselves out of. I didn't do anything
0:25behind your back. I did it right in
0:27front of you and I did it to benefit my
0:29child.
0:30Coming up on Dance Moms. The name of the
0:32group routine is don't ask, just tell.
0:36If you want to be Maddie, then you need
0:37to get the face. That's it. Good, good,
0:39good. I was with some guy. Hello. You
0:41can have the first bite.
0:44I'm going to take Kenzie to the
0:45hospital. What do you mean the hospital?
0:47Did you witness Mackenzie doing
0:49cartwheels in here? Don't you lie to me.
0:51She is throwing her talent away. It's
0:54time
0:55to not be dancing anymore.
1:15Come on, girls. LET'S GO. COME ON, LET'S
1:17MOVE IT.
1:19Of course we have to talk about
1:21Bernardsville, New Jersey.
1:23Second. Second. Second.
1:26Second. Second place. Your dream will be
1:29my dream.
1:31Love is royal.
1:34Lifeline.
1:39The duet was stiff.
1:41It's okay. Everybody needs knocked down
1:43a few pegs.
1:45Even you, Maddie.
1:48Such is life.
1:49Normally when the kids get second place,
1:51she's screaming at them that they're the
1:53first to lose. So, there's definitely
1:55something up with her. So, let's talk
1:57about the group dance. You looked
2:00exquisite.
2:02But I didn't see a love story.
2:04Your dream will be
2:07Your dream will be
2:10If you want to be second, then you did a
2:13great job. If you want to win, you might
2:15have to go back to the basics.
2:17I'm not going to yell at you or scream
2:19at you or anything else. I'll just smile
2:21and be sweet and nice and
2:23you'll be second. You know, I don't
2:25trust this whole Abby's being so sweet
2:27thing. It's like look over here while I
2:29punch you from this side. This week we
2:31will be traveling to Minneapolis,
2:33Minnesota. We will attend Intensity
2:36Dance. We've been there before. We're
2:39going again. So, let's move on to the
2:41pyramid. First,
2:45Mackenzie.
2:4711 points between you
2:49and the next person.
2:5111 points.
2:53Next on the pyramid,
2:55Nia.
2:56You weren't feeling well.
2:58We can blame that. You know how to
2:59perform.
3:01But the legs get sloppy, the feet get
3:03sloppy, the arms get sloppy.
3:06Next I have
3:08Paige.
3:09Your arms
3:12out of control. I tell you, you still do
3:14it wrong.
3:16Next,
3:18Maddie.
3:19You did four turns in the corner.
3:22Stunning. And you bobble on
3:24simple, easy things.
3:31I threw you a lifeline. You must have
3:33missed it.
3:34Next,
3:36Kendall.
3:37Remember I told you before your mom
3:39could hurt you or she could help you.
3:42This week she helped you. Kendall is
3:44second on the pyramid this week, one
3:46spot away from Maddie. This is great.
3:48Only one spot away from the top and I'm
3:50not going to stop until she gets there.
3:52She wants you right on Maddie's heels,
3:55chomping at the bit. I think that's a
3:57good thing. That seems a little
3:58cutthroat, but teaches them. If dance
4:01competitions aren't cutthroat, I don't
4:03know what is. I'm quite taken by Abby
4:05praising Jill for using certain tactics
4:07to get Kendall ahead on a pyramid. I
4:09think they're cutthroat and I think
4:11they're devious. I'd rather have my kid
4:12low on the pyramid. And now, the top of
4:15the pyramid,
4:16Brooke.
4:20Brooke's at the top of the pyramid
4:21because she deserved to be there. Her
4:23solo was amazing. She was the leader in
4:25the group dance. Her parts with Maddie
4:28were amazing.
4:29She is on the top of the pyramid because
4:31she deserved it.
4:33And Brooke, don't forget, the person on
4:35top of the pyramid always has a target
4:37on their back. You're the one to knock
4:39down a peg.
4:42Yes.
4:43What about me? What about you?
4:46How come I'm not on the pyramid? You're
4:48on suspension.
4:51What this kid doesn't realize is that
4:53she's working harder now. She's starting
4:55to think, you know what? Maybe my mother
4:58crossed the line.
4:59I need to get back in Abby's good graces
5:02and the way to do that is to work hard
5:04in class.
5:06The name of the group routine
5:08is don't ask,
5:10just tell. Now, this is a term that was
5:13used in the military.
5:15And we're going to try to tell this
5:17story on stage.
5:18The theme of the group number this week
5:21is the former military policy don't ask,
5:24don't tell. Some brave hero fighting for
5:27our freedom
5:29could be just charged from the military
5:31just for being gay. But this is my take
5:33on it. I don't want any secrets or lies.
5:36I want these kids to be truthful with
5:38themselves. I want them to let it all
5:40out. I also have a few solos. The first
5:42will be Brooke.
5:46My next solo
5:48goes to Kendall.
5:52Maybe those PRIVATES OUT IN THE HALLWAY
5:53paid off.
5:56I have one more solo to give.
6:02Maddie,
6:04you will be performing Uphill Battle.
6:07And your battle is uphill.
6:08Don't settle for second.
6:11At this point, I'm going to dismiss you
6:13from pyramid. Please go ahead and exit
6:15the door.
6:16I would like you to sit in the den and
6:18warm up. Moms, I'd like you to take the
6:21place of your daughters.
6:23You don't like me to yell at your kids.
6:25You don't like me to raise my voice or
6:27to get angry or to be mean. If you think
6:30that being all nice and sweet is going
6:32to get your kids to the next level,
6:34you're dumber than I thought.
6:36If you're good with your kids being
6:37second, this is the wrong place for you.
6:40When they step out on stage, they need
6:43to be brilliant.
6:45And they're not.
6:46If your kids want to do this and want to
6:50succeed, they need to get back to the
6:52basics.
6:53They need to forget all the other things
6:55and they need to focus. I want them to
6:58be the best that they can be, but they
7:01have to want it, too.
7:03All right, you're dismissed. And tell
7:05them when they get back in here, they
7:07better be marching.
7:10Come here. Come here. Listen to me. You
7:12go in there and you be amazing.
7:14Okay? You make her see you because she
7:18can't help but look at you because
7:19you're so amazing.
7:20Okay.
7:22Watching Chloe raise her hand and ask
7:23Abby what about her on that pyramid is
7:26so hard for me. I give her a lot of
7:28credit for having the courage to stand
7:30up and say, "Don't forget about me."
7:37And halt, about face. You don't even
7:39know what that is.
7:41Boot camp, sit-ups, push-ups,
7:44conditioning. These kids need to start
7:47working again. They need to be sweating,
7:52bleeding, crying.
7:55They have to want it bad. I chose this
7:58routine because every single one of you
8:00has to get back to the basics. Where is
8:03the technique? Where is the love of
8:05dance? Where is the passion for
8:07performing?
8:12So, I went to the gym today and I stayed
8:13home all day and I was online all day
8:15looking for a place for Greg and I to go
8:17on a honeymoon. Wait, what?
8:19A yeah, yeah, just just a little one,
8:21you know. You're wearing a wedding band.
8:23Are you married?
8:25Melissa's wearing a wedding ring, but
8:26last time I checked, she's not married.
8:28You're not even supposed to have your
8:29wedding band on your finger.
8:31Are you going to get married soon?
8:33Yeah.
8:34Hmm.
8:35Are we invited? No, she already told us,
8:37remember? No, it's just going to be us.
8:39It's just going to be a really little
8:40wedding.
8:40You're not going to take your kids?
8:41not that many people. Just us.
8:43Can you not put Abby on the guest list?
8:46Can you imagine Abby at Melissa's
8:47wedding? I mean, really. I feel sorry
8:49for anyone who has to wrestle her for
8:51that bouquet. How can we help? Last time
8:53we tried to do something like a
8:54stripper, you weren't really all that
8:56interested.
8:57He had love handles.
8:58Can we take you dress shopping? I think
9:00that'd be so fun. The last time we took
9:02you dress shopping, Holly and I were the
9:04ones that tried on the wedding dresses.
9:06AND I'M NOT TRYING ANYTHING on this
9:07time.
9:09Girls, the name of this routine
9:11is don't ask, just tell. This is 2013.
9:16Be proud of yourself. You want to win
9:18the war, don't you?
9:19Let's get ready.
9:22We all know about the military reference
9:25don't ask, don't tell. But my take on
9:27that, I want everybody to tell. I want
9:31kids to be proud of who they are. I want
9:33everybody in this world to speak up and
9:35take a stand for themselves.
9:37So, we're entitling this routine don't
9:40ask, just tell.
9:42What story does that dance tell you
9:44right there? I think that Abby is
9:46showing her support to the gay
9:47community. Gay? I never got that out of
9:50this. Isn't it like don't ask, don't
9:51tell?
9:53What did you do?
9:55I Get on the floor. Give her the floor
9:57parts so she can get up with you.
10:02No, I took the side aerial out. Do the
10:04cartwheel step I can't spray. No,
10:06Gianna.
10:071 2 step together stand up. Yes?
10:12The hip hop number this week is really
10:13hard. Mackenzie's struggling a little
10:16bit.
10:17You know, but she looks adorable in it.
10:18Why did you do the leg thing that you
10:20can't do? I changed it cuz you couldn't
10:23do it. You better shape
10:26or ship out.
10:29You know, I still take great offense to
10:31Abby praising Jill. I don't think that
10:33was right. Nia and Kendall were both in
10:36the duet together yet one gets to move
10:39up the pyramid and one stays way at the
10:41bottom. But she even said she said
10:43sometimes your mother can hurt you but
10:44in this case your mother helped you.
10:45Yeah, that's exactly what she taught in
10:47there today.
10:48That's what she said. That's what she
10:49did. You moved up the pyramid because
10:51you snuck behind your friend's back and
10:53got a private to better yourself.
10:55I'm not a snake. I don't know. The last
10:57week was sneaky. Jill approaches life as
11:00a competition. So, I think if there's
11:02any opportunity for a child to move
11:04forward or advance, Jill's always
11:06strategizing for Kendall to move ahead.
11:08Holly, if you feel Nia needed help with
11:10something who am I to stop you from
11:13getting that help?
11:14Who am I to say you're sneaky?
11:15Did you invite Nia to be part of a
11:17private for the duet?
11:18funny it wasn't a private. I did invite
11:20Gia.
11:21This was about a duet, not having one
11:23child outshine another in the duet. It's
11:25not a solo.
11:26believe you're still stuck on this. I am
11:28not done. It's it's done. It's over.
11:31No, I'm entitled to have my opinion.
11:32And I'm entitled to my Why are you
11:34entitled Holly and not me? You're
11:35entitled to your wrong opinion. That's
11:37fine. Bam.
11:40I've nothing to hide. And all those moms
11:42know I'll do whatever it takes to get
11:44Kendall to the top of the pyramid. Okay,
11:47it's not a secret and it's not a lie.
11:49Deal with it.
11:59Do we have any um dates yet for our
12:01concert? Yeah, we have some dates we're
12:04trying to iron out the floor cuz I'm in
12:06a different place. So, it's like I have
12:08to bring the Marley
12:09yeah, hold on one second. She's right
12:11here. Abby. Who is it?
12:13Some guy. Hello. Oh, hi. How are you?
12:20Abby gets a phone call and she starts
12:23being really giddy and I don't know
12:25who's on the other line, but I know it's
12:26a guy.
12:27I know. How are you? She's giggly. And
12:31did you see how she acted when it's a
12:32guy like
12:35What is she doing on the phone? She
12:37always yells at us for even looking at
12:38our phones and she's down there blah
12:40blah blah. I hope she didn't lose my
12:41number.
12:42Whoever she's talking to she looks
12:43happy. Look at her. Maybe she called
12:45Jill's 900 number.
12:47Talk with it. If you notice I haven't
12:49had that in a while.
12:52No one is rehearsing. Not a solo is
12:54being rehearsed. Not a group dance is
12:56being rehearsed. It's like a total waste
12:58of time. These kids could be doing
12:59something. The girls should be running
13:01their solos. So, you're supposed to
13:03leave tomorrow but you're staying so we
13:05can go out. Well, that's nice. We want
13:07to know who she's
13:08talking to. I just want to tell you what
13:10happened. Her phone rings. Gia answers
13:12it
13:13and it's some man.
13:16I'm kind of excited for Abby. A guy
13:18would be great for her. Whatever keeps
13:20Abby happy is good for all of us. She's
13:23still talking.
13:24She walked She got up and left me in the
13:26dust. It's probably cuz it's the first
13:27boy who's ever called her.
13:28I might be a little rusty. I haven't
13:30been out in a while. I need a little
13:31hubba hubba. That's that's definitely
13:33right.
13:34I hope she goes on a date. Maybe she'll
13:35get laid so she's not so miserable.
13:37The kids are in the room ready for
13:39rehearsal and Abby's out there on the
13:41phone. She's always on them for not
13:43being prepared and here they are they're
13:45ready to rehearse and she's out there on
13:47the phone. Like get off the phone and
13:49practice what you preach.
13:56Oh god, MAKE ME PUKE.
14:00COME ON, LET'S GO FIND OUT WHO IT IS. I
14:02DON'T WANT TO KNOW who she was on the
14:03phone. You guys definitely could care
14:05less.
14:06I so don't want to know what's going on
14:08with Abby's love life. I mean talk about
14:09don't ask just tell. I don't want her to
14:11tell me anything because the images that
14:13come to mind are horrifying. Okay, well
14:15thank you for calling. I look forward to
14:17seeing you. WE'RE INVESTIGATING
14:20WHAT? WE LOVE HOW GIGGLY you were. Oh.
14:24We don't know she SEEMS SO HAPPY. WELL,
14:27YOU KNOW YOU TOOK me on that speed
14:28dating thing.
14:29No, no no no no. But when I left there
14:33I went the other way to get on the
14:35parkway to go home and I stopped at a
14:38the at a gas station and I met this guy
14:41that was standing there right next to me
14:42pumping gas. Did he offer to pump your
14:44gas? YES, HE DID.
14:47WELL, LET'S help Abby prepare for HER
14:49DATE. NO.
14:53OH, YOU CAN BE IN CHARGE of her clothes.
14:55And you can do her makeup. I can do her
14:56makeup. I can DO HER HAIR.
14:59IT'S LIKE MOE, LARRY, AND CURLY are
15:00going to help me. I don't think so.
15:02I'm going to go get my nails done.
15:04That's it.
15:05I'm not getting them done because I have
15:06a date. I'm getting them done because
15:08they need done. Okay, that's good. We
15:09can We can start with that. All right,
15:11that sounds like fun.
15:13Here you go.
15:14Here you go. These moms are ridiculous.
15:17I don't need nor do I want their help.
15:20I've been on plenty of dates before.
15:28Come on, Kendall. Get in here. Let's go.
15:31Don't look down at the floor when you
15:32walk around. Kendall's solo is entitled
15:35Secrets and Lies. Kendall, you need to
15:37tell that audience that you are keeping
15:40a big secret. Legs together. Your ankles
15:42are separated. I'm so excited that Abby
15:46is giving Kendall a solo this week.
15:47GET A PLIé IN THERE. YOU'RE NOT EVEN
15:49TURNED OUT.
15:50THE more opportunities this kid has the
15:53better she is going to be.
15:57Okay, there's You're just dead in the
15:58face. You're dead in the face. It's what
16:01you make it on the stage. You get out
16:02there and you look like some scared
16:03little kid
16:05not going to have too many more solos.
16:07I need to see this. If you want to be
16:10Maddie and your mother wants you to be
16:11Maddie, then you need to get the face.
16:13Each dancer has their own unique style.
16:17And I understand that Abby wants Kendall
16:20to dance like Maddie. I want Kendall to
16:22dance like Maddie. However, you don't
16:24want a canned presentation where every
16:26single kid looks exactly the same.
16:30Go.
16:37Come on, EVERYBODY. LET'S GO.
16:40GIRLS, LET'S GO. LET'S GO.
16:44I hurt my You hurt your foot?
16:49Where's my kids?
16:51Group rehearsal is starting again.
16:53Mackenzie is not in the rehearsal and I
16:56have to see what's going on. Kenz, I'm
16:57coming. What's wrong, honey?
17:00I think I should go home. Okay, but
17:02honey, but don't cry. Why are you
17:04crying? I don't want to let her down.
17:06Aw, honey, I know you don't. But you're
17:08not letting Miss Abby down. It'll let
17:09her down if you hurt it worse.
17:12And she understands that. So, how about
17:14we get some ice on it? It's okay, you
17:15just need to rest it. Mackenzie actually
17:18hurt her foot 2 weeks ago and she's been
17:20really, you know, limping and she's not
17:22doing well at all. How's your foot,
17:24honey?
17:25What happened?
17:27I'm so sad for Mackenzie because I think
17:29this dance probably the best dance that
17:32she's ever done. And she really shines
17:33in the dance. So, she's so
17:35broken-hearted.
17:36Yes?
17:38I just want to tell you this is
17:39Mackenzie's probably most favorite
17:40dance. She hurt her foot doing a back
17:43tuck on pointe, but it's not even
17:44swollen. I don't know what's really
17:46wrong with Mackenzie's foot. I kind of
17:48have to see how she's moving. Maybe it's
17:50all in her head. Maybe she just doesn't
17:52want to be in the group routine. Maybe
17:54she doesn't want to be the reason they
17:56don't win. Do you want to see what she
17:57can do and then
17:58So, she either needs to do it or she's
18:00out. I need to I need to work on it
18:02without her.
18:02Okay, got it.
18:04Miss Abby wants you to put your your
18:05boots on, Kenz. Just go in and see what
18:07you can do, okay? See try to do the
18:09dance. Okay? Why Why is she having
18:12Mackenzie do the dance if she's hurt?
18:15Face, Mackenzie. Face. And I think
18:17Melissa said no no she loves the dance.
18:19I love
18:21pointe numbers and that doesn't mean I
18:22can do them. Uh
18:25I don't know what's quite going on
18:26because like a second ago Mackenzie was
18:28crying that her foot hurt and now she's
18:30rehearsing with the group.
18:32Watch your line. You're in a You're not
18:33in A WINDOW. YOU'RE RIGHT BEHIND MADDIE.
18:35GET THE WINDOW, KENDALL. BE SMARTER. SO,
18:38you guys
18:39we're going to have a little bridal
18:40shower
18:42for Melissa and take her dress shopping
18:44because she agreed. Last time we
18:46mentioned a ring we got a cease and
18:48desist. If we have a bridal shower we
18:49might get full on sued. No, I think it's
18:51different now. I'm sure. Did all the
18:53divorces go through?
18:56And I think she wants us to be a part of
18:57it now. Before maybe she didn't I don't
18:59I don't know. That's what we wanted to
19:01do last year with her and she wouldn't
19:03let us. She kind of
19:04was like back off. I think Melissa's in
19:06a better place with us now. She's
19:09letting some of her guards down and is
19:12actually opening up more.
19:14Okay, girls.
19:15You have one chance. That's the way it
19:18works. You all got lucky.
19:20Remember that.
19:22Do you think you can do the group dance?
19:24Cuz if you can't I need to take you out.
19:27No fooling around. No walking. No going
19:30to the mall walking on cement.
19:32If she's okay to dance she'll dance. If
19:34not, more work for you.
19:47Hi. I need to get my nails done.
19:50You getting them done for anything
19:51special? I don't know. I might have a
19:52date. Not sure. Oh. The only thing I do
19:55to pamper myself is my nails. That's it.
19:57Got to have them looking good.
19:58That's it. I don't get a lot of time
19:59away from the studio. So, if I see a
20:01chance to pamper myself, I take it.
20:04Yeah, isn't this great? This is great.

20:22that you're usually not that happy at
20:23the studio. I'm not that happy cuz
20:25you're all there.
20:28Abby doesn't want to admit it, but she
20:30really needs our help. Oh, that might be
20:33nice, Abby. Jill, that looks Just bear
20:35with me. Jill, I got one thing going for
20:37me and it's cleavage.
20:39I'm not covering it up. She's trying to
20:41choke me to death. I'm 40-something
20:43years old. I can trust myself. You guys
20:45are making a big deal about this. It's
20:47just a little casual. I'm happy for you.
20:49still have dinner at the place. Now the
20:51moms want to live vicariously through me
20:54instead of their daughters. I mean, come
20:56on. Hasn't been that long since they've
20:58been on a date with their husbands?
20:59Well, this is like Abby's prom. I know.
21:02Oh, stop. You're ridiculous.
21:05Are you going to do something special
21:06with your hair?
21:08Like color it 50 shades of gray like
21:10you? I don't have gray hair.
21:12You know what? We're here to help Abby.
21:14It would be nice if she showed us a
21:16little gratitude. So, have you decided
21:18what you're wearing tonight?
21:19I'm going to wear a black shirt and I'm
21:20going to wear some rhinestone jewelry
21:21bling and I'm going to probably go to
21:23dinner and that's it. That sounds like
21:24what you wear to the dance studio.
21:26you going to do if he shows up with a
21:27baseball cap? He would He won't, Jill.
21:30He won't. He's cool. I keep telling you
21:32inside I'M LIKE A SIZE six Prada. You

21:39all the time and just
21:40So, he's not a dancer?
21:42know. I mean, that's a good question.
21:43I'll have to ask him. I forgot. I don't
21:45know.
21:46Put a ring on it.
21:51MAYBE IT'S THE SHIRT.
21:54JILL, there's people here. This is just
21:56all too much. My personal life is my
21:59personal life. They need to worry about
22:01their girls working their butts off for
22:03the hip-hop routine. We got to get
22:04going, Abby. I'm so sorry that
22:06interrupted. You had to watch Jill bump
22:08and grind and I love it. I thought that
22:10you do it. Bye, ladies. This is so
22:12beautiful. They really want to help you
22:14get ready. They're nuts.
22:25Then step through. Maddie's doing a new
22:27solo called uphill battle. This is a
22:29little different than what she usually
22:30does. It's hard-hitting. It's edgy. It's
22:33a little darker. Toes out there on that.
22:36I'm watching Maddie and her dance looks
22:38great. Lots of new things in her dance,
22:41which I think is great. Maddie looks on
22:43YouTube and you know, always wants to
22:45try something new.
22:46So, it's exciting.
22:49That's Maddie's going to go out on that
22:51stage and have to really be over the top
22:54with her emotional execution. It's like
22:56you're fighting an uphill battle.
22:58Get it?
22:59All right. I'll see you tomorrow.
23:01Bye.
23:08So,

29:45He thought that he was just hot stuff.
29:48He referred to himself as
29:50180 lbs of twisted steel and sex appeal.
29:55You know he's a former male stripper.
29:57Shut up.
29:58When I found out that he was a former
30:01professional dancer, I was like, "Who
30:03did you tour with? Celine Dion?"
30:06You know, come on. Do I see Louis in my
30:08future?
30:09I don't know. I need more laughter in my
30:11life. So, I might just keep him around.
30:14I'll tell you what. I didn't care if I
30:17ever saw another kid dance. I was so
30:19glad to get out of the studio last
30:21night.
30:22Let's just say I teach the girls almost
30:25everything.
30:27I
30:29love that.
30:32Okay.
30:33Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.
30:42Hey Brooke, how you doing?
30:44Good. You're going to Minnesota.
30:46This is where the dance studios are that
30:48have 1,200 students, 2,000 students. So,
30:52you're going to be up against some
30:53pretty amazing kids. The name of your
30:55routine is arm yourself. They're not
30:57talking about your arms.
31:00They're talking about
31:01have your secret weapon.
31:03Know how to get out of a situation.
31:06Yes? So, let's see it.
31:11Brooke knows that she was born to be a
31:12dancer. She knows that she can do
31:15acrobatic tricks that not too many
31:16people can do.
31:18Roll forward and hold. Collapse, bend
31:22that knee, arch up.
31:24Hold.
31:25But I keep throwing her on top of that
31:26pyramid hoping someday she might just
31:29rise to the occasion.
31:40Okay Brooke, you're finished.
31:42Good work. I will see you tomorrow and
31:44we need to finish tomorrow
31:46cuz you only have two more days before
31:48you're in Minnesota against all those
31:50amazing kids. Be prepared. Arm yourself.
31:53Get it?
31:55The more information you have,
31:57the stronger you can be. Okay.
32:08I decided to get Kendall some new and
32:11improved headshots. Something maybe a
32:14little different and a little bit
32:15snappier than the others. I want
32:18something dynamic. I want something that
32:20jumps off that pyramid and says, "Here I
32:23am. I want to be number one." Yeah,
32:26that's right. I think you're pulling on
32:28my hair.
32:28Sorry. I know that Kendall gets a little
32:30uptight when I'm always fixing her hair.
32:32Could you shush, Mom? It's hard being
32:35beautiful. I want her to look her 100%
32:38best. It's my job as her mom to get in
32:40there and make sure that happens. That's
32:43good right there. That's it. Good, good.
32:45Turn your head a little bit. Perfect.
32:47What a great shot, Kendall. That's
32:48beautiful.
32:49You nailed it. I would love for other
32:51opportunities to come from this. I would
32:54love for her to show up in commercials,
32:56do some print work, anything. Does that
32:58look like a superstar to you?
33:00Be happy with that. That's it. Very
33:02nice. The sky's the limit and now is the
33:04time. I've got to take advantage of this
33:06beautiful little girl right now. Okay.
33:08Can I get one with Kendall? Can I get
33:10in?
33:10Sure, that'd be awesome.
33:11Go ahead, snuggle in there with her for
33:13one. That's very nice. Grab another.
33:15What a great shot. You're going to
33:16airbrush me, right? Uh-huh. One, two,
33:19three. Nicely done.
33:21Here, hop up one sec.
33:25That's it. Good. Good, good, good. Turn
33:27your head to your left one little notch.
33:29Very nice.
33:35Melissa, I'm excited and actually a
33:37little surprised that you agreed to do
33:38this.
33:39Why? Uh because last time we tried to
33:42take you to a wedding shop, you were
33:43like I was like
33:45a year ago. Don't speak to me about
33:46weddings and here's a letter for my
33:48attorney. It wasn't that long ago that
33:50just asking about Melissa's diamond on
33:53her hand, you know, resulted in us
33:55getting a letter threatening draconian
33:57legal action and now we want to take her
33:59to buy a dress? Like, are you ladies
34:02serious? We're friends now, so things
34:04are a little different. And it's Hey, I
34:06thought I was your friend then.
34:08You were my friend then. I'm inviting
34:10all the moms into my life a little more
34:12and, you know,
34:14we're kind of open books now. We tell
34:15each other everything.
34:23Oh, thank you.
34:26This is for you.
34:28Thank you. This is for you. I wanted
34:30Melissa to feel good about herself.
34:32There's no reason
34:34to hold grudges or be worried about
34:37secrets. Let's just put the past behind
34:40us and move forward and make this good.
34:47Jill is very competitive, even when it
34:49comes to a bridal shower. So, going to
34:52look at wedding dresses, who brings in
34:54the best desserts, who gets to help
34:56Melissa try on a gown, whose idea was
34:59it. Everything can be a competition, so
35:02I'm not surprised that Jill has this
35:03take-charge kind of attitude. Look at
35:06Holly.
35:07Aw.
35:08Aw, this is a pretty one. Aw, you're so
35:10thoughtful, Holly. It is Holly.
35:12That is beautiful.
35:16Is this Is this from Kristen?
35:17for me. Mhm, there's a little card in
35:19there. I wanted this. Aw, da-da.
35:21DA-DA. WAIT NOW, BUT YOU HAVE to take it
35:23out of the box and hold it up. I love
35:25it.
35:26This is from Jill. Aw.
35:29Aw.
35:30Thank you. I feel young.
35:33This is from Kelly. Aw, just married.
35:36Isn't that pretty? I got the one that
35:38said just married cuz I was confused cuz
35:40you wear your wedding band all the time.
35:41I wasn't sure if I missed the wedding or
35:43not.
35:46I don't know why Melissa is so
35:47secretive. You know, it's like she's
35:50afraid. Like, what are you afraid of,
35:52Melissa? Why won't you tell us? I like
35:54my ring. I think it's bad luck to wear
35:56the wedding band as you're trying on the
35:57dress. And that bottle just goes with
35:59it. It's your favorite wine. Oh, good.
36:01Thank you. If I did decide to have a
36:03wedding, it's just going to be very
36:04intimate and it's just going to be
36:06basically my family and I. Let's
36:08practice tossing the bouquet. Okay.
36:10Okay. Oh god. Come on. Jill will kill a
36:14to get that thing.
36:15Cuz it's all about the win.
36:17Well, put it this way. I could get it if
36:18I wanted it.
36:20We're a bunch of middle-aged women
36:22lunging for a bouquet. This could be
36:23potentially hazardous. Someone could
36:25BREAK A HIP.
36:31OH MY GOD.
36:33I THINK KELLY, HOLLY, AND I ARE HAVING A
36:34little too much fun at the bridal shop.
36:35If we keep going, I think we're all
36:37going to be trying on bride dresses.
36:39Do you have an idea as to what dress you
36:41want? I wanted kind of something simple.
36:44Um Something slim, something sexy,
36:46something a little bit Uh um Well, sexy.
36:48That's how you met him. Yeah, I like
36:50that.
36:50Uh with like cleavage at the bust here.
36:52We know he LIKES THAT.
36:54WOO.
36:55LET'S TRY THIS ONE ON. OKAY, here she
36:58comes.
37:00I don't like it, but I'm going to show
37:01you.
37:03It's not my It's not really what I'm
37:04looking for. Definitely going to need
37:06bigger than a six.
37:07Oh, that's pretty. That's pretty, too.
37:09It's pretty. I love the bottom. I love
37:13this dress.
37:14Pretty. You know what? Guess what color
37:15this comes in? What? Pink.
37:19Aw, that's pretty. I love that one, too.
37:21Yeah, that one's beautiful. I think that
37:24that dress would be amazing if you were
37:25like 23
37:28and a virgin.
37:31I think all of these dresses that
37:32Melissa's trying on are beautiful and
37:35they're very pure and I think when
37:37you're on your third marriage, I don't
37:39know if they're the appropriate choice.
37:41This is the skinniest mirror in all of
37:43America.
37:44ass down and I love that
37:46mirror. How do you like we have to
37:48invite ourselves to be part of her
37:50wedding party? Me of all people probably
37:52shouldn't be part of the wedding party.
37:54I don't really think I should
37:55considering that we usually fight like
37:57cats and dogs. Yeah, Abby's probably her
37:59maid of honor. Who's Abby?
38:00We won't have fun if Abby's there. No
38:03kidding. Melissa, you cannot invite
38:06Abby. It won't be fun. Hey, I'm naked.
38:09Oh, why are you naked? Are you wearing
38:12undies? Um just my Spanx. Well, you're
38:14ready one step ahead of Kelly.
38:18Going dress shopping with Melissa is
38:21really a turning point, I think, for all
38:23of us. The fact that we were there and
38:25we were able to share in her joy, that's
38:26huge.
38:30You're shut up, you lush.
38:36A few more drinks and I think Dr.
38:37Holly's going to be modeling, you know,
38:38wedding night lingerie.
38:43Oh, it's pretty. I love this dress.
38:46I'm sorry.
38:48It's done. It's done. Aw, it's done. I
38:51don't have the stress. Look how gorgeous
38:54this is. I I love this dress. You look
38:57like a princess. I just would love for
39:00Greg to see me in this dress. Well, he
39:02can't see you in this dress. It's bad
39:03luck.
39:03I meant when we're getting married.
39:05Aw.
39:07I feel fabulous in this dress and it was
39:09so sweet of the moms to take me dress
39:11shopping and I feel like a million
39:14bucks.
39:22Hi girls, how you doing?
39:24Good.
39:26I'm going to take Kenzie to the
39:27hospital, but I just wanted to drop
39:29Maddie off.
39:29What do you mean the hospital?
39:30Her foot is killing her. I thought you
39:32did the dance last night and it looked
39:33pretty good. Still bothering you?
39:37No, you need to get it looked at. Go to
39:38the hospital.
39:39It's going to be needles and all kind of
39:42stuff.
39:44Now I'm concerned that something might
39:45be broken in McKenzie's foot, so I'm
39:47going to leave Maddie here. I'm going to
39:49go take McKenzie to the hospital. Got
39:51it. I can't have a wounded soldier, can
39:53I?
39:55This is the ALDC.
40:01This is it. This is the last day.
40:03Tomorrow you're on a plane going to
40:04Minnesota. THIS IS ALL YOU GET, KID.
40:07You're going on that stage
40:09and Kendall be Chloe.
40:11She be Chloe? She can be you. Where is
40:13Melissa? Oh, she took McKenzie to the
40:15doctors. Oh, here. So she Is she not
40:18coming?
40:19Oh, you you're sliding right into her
40:20spot. No, just giving you a little
40:22wardrobe.
40:23God's sake, Jo. And I was just surprised
40:24because yesterday Melissa said she was
40:27fine and it wasn't that bad, so I was
40:28just
40:29her to do the group dance, remember?
40:30Exactly. So she's okay, she can do it. I
40:32didn't see anything. Nothing looked
40:34unusual during rehearsal. Everything
40:37looked fine. I didn't notice any injury
40:39or McKenzie getting hurt.
40:42Oh, Melissa's calling me. Hello.
40:45Hi. Hi.
40:47It's Abby.
40:48Can you pick Maddie up?
40:49Yeah. I thought she was okay.
40:52Well, I'm just worried that she won't be
40:55able to dance tonight. Yeah.
40:57Maddie says that Mom hurt Maddie and
40:59McKenzie when she fell and hurt her foot
41:01so bad.
41:03Oh.
41:03I'm just kind of worried that, you know,
41:05we were with Paige Yeah.
41:07and she's worried the same thing
41:10Well, it's not broken at all. Yeah.
41:12Yeah, Paige just
41:14didn't even cry. And it was broken.
41:16Yeah.
41:18No. All right. Well, tell her we're
41:19thinking of her. Okay. Thanks for taking
41:21Maddie. All right. And I'll just have
41:22her stay over.
41:24Okay. Thank you. Okay.
41:26All right. Talk to you later. Bye.
41:33SHOULDERS DOWN!
41:36I thought MELISSA LIKED THE BRIDAL
41:37SHOWER, didn't you guys? I do, too.
41:39Oh, I think she had a good time.
41:41I thought she had fun. Everybody likes
41:43that like that moment. Oh, yeah. Like
41:46you're like the We be men. But last year
41:49wasn't as much fun cuz she didn't try on
41:51any dresses. I mean, I tried on dresses
41:53even being engaged last year. Why does
41:55she wear her wedding band if she's not
41:58already married? I thought she was
41:59secretly married. Is that the secret
42:02you're trying to get out of her? You
42:03think she's married?
42:05I probably am the one who knows the
42:07least about Melissa's wedding details
42:09and I'd like to keep it that way because
42:10something says that she would sue me
42:12first.
42:17You need to make sure that you get still
42:22there's still a reaction there. It's
42:23like turn turn turn drop.
42:24It's never turn turn turn up fly drop.
42:29Up. Yes. Think. Okay? Have you heard
42:32from your mother?
42:34No, all I heard was she was taking
42:35McKenzie to the hospital. All right.
42:37Don't worry about your sister.
42:39It's not life or death. It's her foot.
42:41Worry about your feet. All right, get
42:43the group in here and get the boots on.
42:45Let's go.
42:46Do you think Kenzie can compete this
42:47weekend? What if she comes back with a
42:49boot? Paige still had to do a hip hop
42:51dance with a BOOT ON.
42:53REMEMBER?
42:55I FORGOT ABOUT THAT. She's shy. Well,
42:57the thing is with this hip hop dance,
42:59you have to be able to move really
43:01quickly and with confidence.
43:02Yeah, and she's got combat boots on. I'm
43:04not sure I recommend it whether it's
43:06broken or not.
43:07Absolutely. But that's why we wore
43:09combat boots in ours because
43:12Paige had the black boot on and it
43:13blended in.
43:15Hello.
43:17Okay, let's go. Let's go.
43:19This is the last day of rehearsal before
43:21competition. I need to get my girls
43:24ready to travel to Minnesota and go up
43:26against some of the best studios in the
43:29entire country.
43:31MORE FACIAL.
43:32COME ON, NIA.
43:35WE'RE DOING A HIP HOP number and that is
43:37well out of our comfort zone. So I need
43:40these girls to rise to the occasion and
43:42win. I just want to go over
43:45the story line here. You're
43:47my soldiers
43:49and it's called don't ask, just tell.
43:53And that's taken from the old slogan
43:55don't ask, don't tell. What What is I
43:57really don't know how to explain
43:59something like that.
44:00I don't think they really have a frame
44:01of reference.
44:03I think the kids really give a what the
44:04name of their dance is called. They just
44:06want to dance. Sometimes I think with
44:08the dance that they're doing it helps to
44:10understand the characters in the dance
44:12to really connect to that.
44:14But I would say that with this dance, I
44:15don't think
44:16that makes a difference. Gay military.
44:19So girls, don't ask, don't tell.
44:21Did anybody go home and talk to their
44:23mom about what that means? No?
44:25All right. I'm going to get your moms
44:26down here.
44:27Somewhere God is looking down going, "I
44:30made the right choice by not letting
44:31that woman be a mother."
44:33Follow us downstairs.
44:35I'm bringing my stuff.
44:35Okay, I'm going to take my purse. Head
44:37out. When I talked to the kids about the
44:39title of the routine, I just see blank
44:41faces staring back at me. They have no
44:44idea what I'm talking about and it's not
44:46my place to tell them.
44:48So I called the moms down because I want
44:50them to have a heart to heart with their
44:52kids and discuss some of this stuff. We
44:54live in a world where you should be free
44:57to love anybody you want. But just like
45:00the pyramid
45:01I'm dismissing the girls, not the moms.
45:03Go ahead and go. Thank you.
45:08This is the age they are better to be
45:11well educated
45:14and confident and comfortable talking
45:17about things. That's for you to discuss
45:19at home
45:20in your house.
45:22And I hope that you are respectful and
45:25open-minded. This is very much
45:29alive in the arts. Nia loved working
45:31with Shangela. Yes.
45:33I mean, that's as good as it gets, you
45:34know. Shangela is fabulous. Absolutely.
45:37Nia didn't even know that Shangela was a
45:38man for the longest time. Well, hi
45:41everyone.
45:42My name is Shangela. Did you explain
45:45what that is? We had to. I had to tell
45:47them. Absolutely.
45:49But I think
45:50had a great opportunity, thanks to you
45:52We explained it to the children and I
45:53explained it to Kelly.
45:55Abby keeps talking about acceptance and
45:57how we all need to be accepting. Well, I
45:59think Abby is the least accepting
46:01person, so maybe you ought to lead by
46:03example, Ab. Is that what the dance is
46:06about? Is having a voice and having
46:08strength and power? I was I I just
46:10Don't keep it a secret because secrets
46:12are lies.
46:14Tell the world
46:17and you'll feel that sense of freedom.
46:19So
46:20that's not the conversation I want to
46:21have with your daughters. I have enough
46:22trouble getting their legs straight and
46:24uh stretching their feet. That's a
46:26conversation that you all have to have
46:27with your daughters.
46:33Look at this.
46:36I'm going to wear this one. I'm going to
46:37wear the other hand.
46:39This is yours. No.
46:41What are you guys doing?
46:43We're just looking at the costumes.
46:44Yeah. So, do you know what this dance
46:47means?
46:48I don't really understand the dance.
46:49Well, it's it's talking about gay
46:51people, okay? And you guys, especially
46:54being in the dance world, there's a lot
46:56of boys that dance that are gay.
46:58And you never want to treat them
47:00differently. I mean, you can't help who
47:03you fall in love with.
47:04So, do you realize like what the don't
47:06ask, don't tell is? It's like if you're
47:08in the military and somebody they ask
47:10you, you you're not supposed to say
47:13whether you are or you aren't.
47:15What if you couldn't express how much
47:17you love dance? Wouldn't that make you
47:19feel bad?
47:21So, like that's why everybody should be
47:23able to express how they feel about
47:25anything or anyone. I just want you guys
47:28to grow up knowing it's
47:30everybody's choice
47:32to love who you want to love.
47:34So, you guys understand what this
47:35routine's about? Yes. Yeah.
47:38Are you guys okay with people being gay?
47:41A lot of gay people that I've met are a
47:42lot funnier and yeah, a lot more
47:45attractive. I think some of the best
47:47people in the world to be friends with
47:48are gay people.
47:49Okay.
47:50And anytime you guys want to talk about
47:53who you like, you can always talk to
47:54Mommy
47:55and Daddy.
47:56All right. I'm going to be like fast.
48:07Okay, Miss Maddie.
48:12Wonder how Kenzie is. Earlier Melissa
48:14took McKenzie to the hospital to get her
48:16foot checked out, so I have to drop
48:17Maddie off at home and plus I want to go
48:19in and see how McKenzie's foot is.
48:21I have a peanut for you. Hi. Hello. Hi,
48:25Mom.
48:26How is she?
48:28My goodness.
48:30They said they took X-rays and it's not
48:32broken or anything.
48:34She sprained it. They said 72 hours no
48:37dance.
48:39Sometimes a sprain is worse than a
48:40break. That's what everybody says to me.
48:42Oh my goodness. So, she has to just keep
48:45it elevated whenever she can and we have
48:47to ice it. You know that drill. Yeah.
48:51Did you tell Abby?
48:53Did we tell Abby yet?
48:55No, we haven't told Abby yet. I'm very
48:57brokenhearted for McKenzie because she
48:59always loves to be in the group dance
49:01and when she can hang with the girls
49:04you know
49:05it just makes it
49:06I don't know. I just want her to be
49:07happy and I'm so sad that she's not.
49:09Thanks for bringing Maddie home. Oh,
49:11you're welcome. We beat you. I know. We
49:13were at the hospital.
49:16We went in and out.
49:17I just don't know what to think about
49:18McKenzie's foot. I mean, 2 days ago she
49:20was jumping around the dance studio like
49:22a jumping bean and now she can't dance
49:24for 3 days and it's right before the
49:25competition. So, Kenz, what do you think
49:27about not being able to dance?
49:29Sad. Sad. You're sad?
49:34Yeah, you're not going to know what to
49:35do with yourself, huh? You're always
49:36dancing. But Mackenzie loves this dance
49:39so much.
49:40It was really hard for her at first.
49:42You know, but once she caught on, she
49:44really loved it.
49:46She likes hip-hop. Yeah. Our other girls
49:48McKenzie hate hip-hop. Mine probably
49:50wish they had the ace bandage on their
49:52foot so they didn't have to do this
49:54dance. Kenzie's actually really good in
49:56hip-hop, I think, for her, you know.
49:59Yeah.
49:59I know the other girls, none of the
50:00girls really like hip-hop.
50:03Just make sure you rest it so when you
50:04come back
50:05back
50:06it doesn't bother you again. I just
50:07think Mackenzie's a little intimidated
50:09by the hip-hop dance. I think that it's
50:11a difficult dance and I don't know, I
50:13feel like she bit off a little more than
50:14she can chew.
50:16Oh, it's crazy. So Kenzie, you going to
50:17come away with us at least to the
50:18competition?
50:21Cheer us on?
50:22Yeah.
50:23You can do the dance in your seat.
50:25The audience.
50:32March! March! Let's go!
50:40We're here at Intensity Dance in
50:42Minneapolis, Minnesota. Now, I brought
50:44my troops all the way here and they
50:47better be ready for battle. The Abby Lee
50:49Dance Company better dance with military
50:51precision because I will not accept
50:54anything less than first place.
51:04All right, now listen.
51:06You walked in and you walked at least 50
51:08ft in the hallway.
51:10If you can do that, you can dance.
51:13Your mother should have left you at
51:14home.
51:16Abby won't excuse a dancer from dancing
51:18unless you have a doctor's excuse.
51:20Mackenzie had to hand her a doctor's
51:21excuse saying she can't dance for at
51:23least 72 hours.
51:26Lo and behold, miraculously
51:30appears the doctor's note. So,
51:33you're going to get yourself in the
51:33audience, you're going to sit and you're
51:35going to put your leg up. If you keep it
51:37dangling down,
51:39it's going to swell.
51:40Hey, if you can't do the number, then
51:43you can't run around this auditorium all
51:44day long. You're going to sit and you're
51:46going to rest that foot so that you're
51:48better next week.
51:50What?
51:52Come here.
51:55When you asked if you can be back on the
51:56pyramid, what did she say?
51:59You have to show her
52:01like that you're improving and that
52:02you're working. It has nothing to do
52:04with me. I will do my best, but it has
52:05to come from you, okay? Okay. I pull
52:08Chloe aside and I tell her, you know,
52:10Chloe, you need to show Abby that you're
52:12committed to this. You know, she needs
52:13to be stretching. She needs to be
52:15running the dance. She needs to be
52:17showing Abby that she is taking the
52:19initiative to get back on that pyramid.
52:21Like if you want to be back on the
52:22pyramid, you have to do it. Okay. Okay?
52:26McKenzie,
52:28look what Miss Abby has for you. Until
52:30you have a clean bill of health, your
52:32butt is in this chair.
52:34Get in it.
52:35Come on. When Abby walks into that
52:37dressing room with the wheelchair and
52:39she's heading over to Mackenzie, I'm
52:41like, you got to be kidding me. You are
52:43not bringing a wheelchair for Mackenzie.
52:46Now, I don't want your arm sore.
52:48That's just a seat for you so that
52:50you're not standing.
53:05All right, Kendall, are you ready?
53:09Kendall!
53:12What did we talk about?
53:14My face. Your face. You just arched up,
53:17rolled up into that knee, nothing.
53:19Vanilla.
53:21Vanilla ice cream. There's 31 flavors
53:23and you're giving me vanilla. I don't
53:24want vanilla. I really like this
53:26choreography. It's contemporary. It's
53:29not quite as jazzy as she's done in the
53:31past and I know Kendall can nail this.
53:34Unfortunately, good is not going to win
53:36a war. Not against these enemies.
53:40Maddie, you ready?
53:43That was atrocious. This is an uphill
53:45battle.
53:46You're trying to get back on top of that
53:48pyramid. Neither one of the girls looks
53:50as sharp and as clean as I want them to.
53:54They need to get serious about this. I
53:56will not accept second place.
54:03Earlier in the week, Melissa said that
54:06Mackenzie didn't want to do the dance
54:07because she thought it was too hard. So,
54:09why can't you just say she doesn't want
54:10to do the dance? Maybe Mackenzie was
54:12intimidated by the hip-hop dance. Maybe
54:14she didn't want to just step up and say
54:15it's too hard for me and so maybe the
54:17ankle injury wasn't quite as bad as it
54:19was, but it was an out. She's been on it
54:22all day.
54:33I'm kind of nervous because first of
54:36all, I'm against Maddie.
54:38And second of all, there's a lot of good
54:40dancers here. All right, ladies and
54:42gentlemen, in the junior solo division,
54:44we have entry number nine. This kid is
54:46Kendall with Secrets and Lies. GO,
54:48KENDALL!
56:54KENDALL JUST PERFORMED AND SHE WAS GOOD.
56:56Good enough for first place?
56:59I don't think so.
57:00But I know that my best shot for first
57:02place is coming up next.
57:05All right, moving ahead just a little
57:06bit in your program to entry number 24,
57:09it is Maddie with Uphill Battle.
59:27Maddie danced flawless on stage. I
59:29thought she was great. She brought it.
59:31I was very proud of her.
59:34Good job,
59:35Kalani. You rocked it.
59:38Hey girls.
59:41Nice jobs.
59:43Good. Nice work. Good job. So Kendall,
59:47what did you think? I thought I did
59:49good. You thought you did good? Yes.
59:51Just good enough?
59:53So why didn't you do great?
59:57I really thought she did a nice job.
59:59Abby always wants more. If she wants
1:00:01more, we'll have to try to give her
1:00:03more.
1:00:04But I was very pleased with it. Kalani,
1:00:06did you feel like you made it up the
1:00:08hill? Do you feel like that was the
1:00:10performance that's going to do it?
1:00:12Right. Okay. Good.
1:00:20Brooke.
1:00:22Keep doing what you're doing.
1:00:23What?
1:00:26Mackenzie, I'm going to go take you to
1:00:27the audience.
1:00:29I think it's rude that Abby ran
1:00:31everybody's dances but Brooke's. Watch
1:00:33her do her dance for God's sake.
1:00:35If you want Brooke to be a leader and
1:00:36you want her to act like she cares, then
1:00:38maybe you should act like you care.
1:00:48Wasn't it nice for Abby to come in? But
1:00:50she left and didn't run Brooke's solo.
1:00:54I don't know.
1:00:56It would be nice if her dance teacher
1:00:57was
1:00:58a cheerleader for her, maybe.
1:01:01Just saying. Abby wants Brooke to care
1:01:03about dance, but how is she supposed to
1:01:05care about it when her dance teacher
1:01:07doesn't even give a about her?
1:01:09Abby wants her to like want it so much.
1:01:12But how can she want it when her teacher
1:01:14doesn't want it for her?
1:01:17She's out here this entire time doing it
1:01:19by herself. She didn't look at her
1:01:20costume. She didn't tell her how to wear
1:01:21her hair. She didn't tell her nothing.
1:01:24But she did that one.
1:01:27But watch her do her dance for God's
1:01:29sake. If Brooke doesn't do well on this
1:01:31solo, I'm blaming it all on Abby. I
1:01:33don't know how Abby expects her to do
1:01:35well when she doesn't pay any attention
1:01:36to her. You know guys, I have to use the
1:01:38restroom real quick. Excuse me.
1:01:44So, what kinds of secrets and lies do
1:01:46you think that one's keeping?
1:01:48a secret, apparently.
1:01:50Abby, hold up. I want to show you
1:01:52something I had done for Kendall. I had
1:01:54some new headshots taken.
1:01:55Okay. Because Woo! That's beautiful.
1:01:59See, that's what I think of Kendall when
1:02:01I look at her. She's a gorgeous child.
1:02:03I'd love to take advantage of that. Now,
1:02:06while she's young. For the pyramid or at
1:02:08the studio? I love that. I think it's
1:02:10gorgeous. Can we use one of these for
1:02:12the pyramid? Oh, yes.
1:02:13Let's do new pyramid shot. Jill wants
1:02:15her kid on top.
1:02:17And she'll do anything to get her there.
1:02:20Be careful what you wish for, Jill.
1:02:24Melissa.
1:02:26Mackenzie.
1:02:28Was running around here doing
1:02:29cartwheels. She was using her wheelchair
1:02:32as a prop. I was yelling at her all day.
1:02:34You said earlier in the week Mackenzie
1:02:36thought the dance was too hard.
1:02:38Mackenzie loved this dance, Christi. She
1:02:39told me she was so she cried when she
1:02:41got home because she loved this dance so
1:02:44much. She's hurt. She's not lying. My
1:02:46child is not lying. I promise you.
1:02:48Earlier today, when Abby wasn't in the
1:02:50room, we saw Mackenzie doing cartwheels.
1:02:53I think she just doesn't want to be in
1:02:54the group dance and Melissa's covering
1:02:56for her. And you have to see our point
1:02:58that we're saying.
1:02:59I do, but my daughter is hurt.
1:03:00She was completely running around here
1:03:02that entire time.
1:03:03No, the doctor did not say for her not
1:03:05to walk, not to dance for 72 hours.
1:03:10She's not supposed to walk on her foot.
1:03:12She probably shouldn't be doing
1:03:12cartwheels, either. My God! I didn't
1:03:15make her do it.
1:03:16Fake.
1:03:20I don't want you to think I'm picking on
1:03:21Mackenzie. Whatever.
1:03:24I already told you. I don't need to
1:03:25explain.
1:03:35All right, moving ahead just a little
1:03:36bit in your program to entry number 424,
1:03:39Brooke with Arm Yourself.
1:04:42Good job.
1:05:50I think Brooke did really well in her
1:05:52dance considering she didn't have a
1:05:53dance teacher run it with her. I think
1:05:55that if Abby would have been in the
1:05:57dressing room and ran the solo with her,
1:05:59Brooke wouldn't have been out of step. I
1:06:01thought Brooke did really good. Yeah,
1:06:03she did well. Beautiful.
1:06:04I know one thing. I don't want to hear
1:06:05one thing from Abby.
1:06:07What?
1:06:07Like one correction. Because she wasn't
1:06:09in here to run her dance with her. You
1:06:10know what? If you can't give her the
1:06:11corrections before she goes on stage,
1:06:13then don't give her any. She spent no
1:06:15time with her. She never looked at her
1:06:16costume once. She never looked at her
1:06:18makeup. She never told her how to wear
1:06:20her hair. Nothing. Never watched her do
1:06:22a thing.
1:06:23She did it on her own. And I'm proud of
1:06:25her.
1:06:29You were
1:06:30amazing.
1:06:31Good job, Brooke. I loved it.
1:06:34Beautiful, girlfriend. I don't think you
1:06:36could have done it any better.
1:06:39And you know what? You got no help.
1:06:41Does that bother you that Abby doesn't
1:06:42help you?
1:06:43She was yelling at me.
1:06:45No matter how you score,
1:06:47I was proud of you.
1:06:49Thank you. I think Brooke showed a lot
1:06:51of maturity by doing this all on her
1:06:54own. She did it without a dance teacher.
1:06:59All right, Brooke. Nice job. Thank you.
1:07:02How did it feel?
1:07:04Pretty good. Pretty good?
1:07:07So, do you think it could have been
1:07:08better?
1:07:10You do?
1:07:12Why didn't you do your best?
1:07:14Well, I got stuck on my one turn. Like
1:07:17on the floor, like On the arabesque?
1:07:19Yes. Brooke did well with her solo, but
1:07:22I think she could have done a whole lot
1:07:24better. If Brooke would realize that she
1:07:26was put on this earth to dance,
1:07:28maybe she would work harder. Maybe she
1:07:30would be more passionate.
1:07:34What's the matter? Why are you sitting
1:07:35there sulking?
1:07:37Maybe if her dance teacher was in here
1:07:38running it with her before she went out
1:07:39on stage, she She did it. It was great.
1:07:41I said it was great.
1:07:43Brooke, if you keep running it and
1:07:44running it and running it, your back's
1:07:45going to hurt.
1:07:46You're the major here or the colonel or
1:07:48whatever it is. You need to be the the,
1:07:51you know, seniority
1:07:53up the ladder.
1:07:53She isn't treated like with seniority.
1:07:56I treat her like a 14-year-old.
1:07:58I have a bunch of 14-year-olds at home
1:08:00ready to do their dances and nobody's
1:08:01there running them with them. Yeah, and
1:08:03you haven't run hers with her for the
1:08:04last two weeks or last two solos. I
1:08:06expect you to remember. It's a 2-minute
1:08:08solo.
1:08:09You need to remember it.
1:08:11Brooke is 14 years old. It's time for
1:08:14her to be independent. If she was in an
1:08:16audition, would she have her dance
1:08:18teacher there to run the numbers with
1:08:19her 10 minutes before she goes on? Uh,
1:08:22no. Brooke, it's time to grow up.
1:08:24What about you, Mackenzie? How's the
1:08:26foot? She just told me it felt a little
1:08:27better. It did feel a little better?
1:08:30She's resting a little bit. But it's
1:08:31Resting? What are you resting from? All
1:08:33the cartwheels you were doing?
1:08:36Come on. My eyes and ears are
1:08:39everywhere. Did Mackenzie really think
1:08:41that she was going to do cartwheels and
1:08:43I wouldn't know about it? Mackenzie, if
1:08:45you're faking that injury, there's going
1:08:47to be huge repercussions. She was
1:08:49hopping. Oh, Melissa. She was. I was
1:08:51watching her, Kel.
1:08:52Melissa, don't lie for your kids.
1:08:54I'm not. I'm not.
1:08:55enough for yourself as it is. Without
1:08:57lying for her. I was watching her. I
1:09:00think Melissa is covering for Mackenzie.
1:09:02They both need to just fess up and get
1:09:03their punishment over with already. I
1:09:05told her to sit down a hundred times.
1:09:07She said, "I'm not on my foot, Mom."
1:09:09Melissa, did your mom and dad TAKE A
1:09:11HUNDRED TIMES TO TELL YOU THE same
1:09:13thing?
1:09:13Never. But you're letting her run you.
1:09:18Well, if you can do cartwheels and you
1:09:19can do this and you can do that, you can
1:09:21do the dance for a while. I wasn't on my
1:09:24foot. You weren't on your foot?
1:09:26I don't want to be lied to. You skipped
1:09:28down the hallway, you walked down the
1:09:29hallway. People heard you say it didn't
1:09:31hurt anymore.
1:09:33Let's all learn this lesson. You're
1:09:34injured, you're staying home. I don't I
1:09:37need that like a hole in the head.
1:09:39I need to get to the bottom of this foot
1:09:40thing. McKenzie and Melissa, their
1:09:43stories just aren't adding up. There's
1:09:45one way to find out what's really going
1:09:46on. Interrogation tactics. Brooke,
1:09:50I want YOU TO LINE EVERYBODY UP
1:09:53right here.
1:09:54Facing that way.
1:09:56Come on, let's go.
1:09:59Maddie, yes, ma'am.
1:10:01Did McKenzie go to the hospital when she
1:10:03left dance class?
1:10:04Yes, ma'am.
1:10:08Nia, yes, ma'am.
1:10:10Did you witness
1:10:12McKenzie doing cartwheels in here?
1:10:14I didn't see her do a cartwheel. Don't
1:10:17you lie to me. I just saw her walk. You
1:10:19saw her walk. Did she limp? Yeah.
1:10:23She doesn't have a broken foot. It's a
1:10:25sprained ankle. You can walk on a
1:10:27sprained ankle. Did anybody else witness
1:10:31McKenzie out of the chair doing a trick
1:10:36or upside down?
1:10:39Finally, the truth comes out. I knew
1:10:42these kids would crack under pressure.
1:10:44McKenzie, I'm not very happy.
1:10:46You're playing around and making a joke
1:10:47of it. I don't want to wounded soldier.
1:10:50Paige was in a cast for weeks.
1:10:55Want to get better and you want to be
1:10:56okay for Monday? You stay off it.
1:11:01Soldier, you save those tears for the
1:11:03pillow.
1:11:04We don't have time for tears.
1:11:16Do we all know what we're doing? Legs
1:11:17straight, feet pointed, shoulders down,
1:11:20TIMING, FACIAL EXPRESSIONS.
1:11:24Before I deploy my troops, they need to
1:11:26get this choreography down pat.
1:11:29Windows, Chloe.
1:11:30This thing with Chloe has gone on long
1:11:32enough. Now, she hasn't been on the
1:11:34pyramid since her suspension.
1:11:36I want to talk to Chloe. I want to make
1:11:38sure she knows where she stands with me.
1:11:43Come here.
1:11:44I'm going to be watching you
1:11:46during this number. Yes. And this whole
1:11:48thing is about don't ask, just tell. You
1:11:51need to start speaking up for yourself.
1:11:53Yes?
1:11:54I've had issues with your mother in the
1:11:56past. My issue with you is that you
1:11:58don't speak up and tell your mother,
1:12:00that's not right. We should not be doing
1:12:02that. That's against my contract. You
1:12:05need to speak up. Understand? That's why
1:12:08I'm disappointed in you. And if you walk
1:12:11into that studio and you can't look
1:12:13every instructor, including myself, in
1:12:15the eye because you have some secret
1:12:18that's going on and your mother says,
1:12:20"Don't say anything about that." That's
1:12:21a lie. Understand?
1:12:24Chloe and I have made a commitment to
1:12:25this team. Chloe is a national title
1:12:27winner. I have signed Abby's contracts.
1:12:30Like, we are clearly here. Let's move
1:12:32forward, put her back on the pyramid,
1:12:34let the kid dance, and let's move on.
1:12:37SOLDIERS, ARE YOU READY? YES, MA'AM.
1:12:40THE LAST TIME YOU DID A HIP-HOP DANCE IT
1:12:42WAS EMBARRASSING.
1:12:44This time IT'S NOT GOING TO BE
1:12:45EMBARRASSING. This is it. My troops are
1:12:48ready to go into battle. This hip-hop
1:12:50number is ready to step on stage and I
1:12:53need the ALDC army
1:12:56victorious.
1:12:58This is war.
1:13:05All right, here we go in the junior
1:13:07small group division. This is entry
1:13:09number 84 with don't ask, just tell.
1:15:02That was
1:15:03entry number 84 with don't ask,
1:15:05just tell.
1:15:06They were delightful to watch. They were
1:15:09not the least bit embarrassed,
1:15:11intimidated, offered on stage. I mean,
1:15:13it wasn't perfect. No, I think everyone
1:15:16made a mistake. Was it seamless? Was it
1:15:18flawless? No. Nope. Nope. Nope. It
1:15:20wasn't any of those things, but it sure
1:15:22was entertaining.
1:15:34Get up. Let's go. Line up.
1:15:37Come on. Let's go.
1:15:40Line up. Line up. Line up. Let's go.
1:15:42I don't know why everybody's so happy
1:15:44and cheerful. I saw a ton of mistakes
1:15:46out there. And this is my army. If you
1:15:49mess up, there will be consequences.
1:15:53Face me.
1:15:56Nia.
1:15:57Brooke and Nia.
1:15:58What mistake did you make? I
1:16:00accidentally twisted the wrong way. So,
1:16:04what do we do for that mistake?
1:16:06I'm not your dance teacher.
1:16:0920 push-ups.
1:16:12Next, Kendall.
1:16:14What mistake did you make? I needed to
1:16:16work more on my face and my spacing. You
1:16:20were chosen and you were put in that
1:16:21spot next to Maddie.
1:16:23You get on stage and you choke.
1:16:27Drop and give me 20.
1:16:28Maddie, what did you do wrong in the
1:16:30dance?
1:16:31I accidentally like
1:16:34I was like skipping up like that. Drop
1:16:37and give me 20.
1:16:40Tell me what you did wrong.
1:16:42I used my hands wrong.
1:16:44Drop and give me 20.
1:16:50Paige.
1:16:52Drop and give me 20.
1:16:54MIA,
1:16:55missing in action. You just shouldn't
1:16:58have walked off the stage. Drop and give
1:17:00me 20. Let's go.
1:17:03Come on.
1:17:05Soldiers, stand up straight.
1:17:08Good and up and sharper. Yes, yes,
1:17:10ma'am.
1:17:11Tighter. Yes, ma'am. More energy. YES,
1:17:14MA'AM. SOLDIERS, ABOUT FACE.
1:17:17AND MARCH. LEFT,
1:17:20LEFT, OUT THAT DOOR, OUT THAT DOOR. I
1:17:21DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
1:17:38SO,
1:17:39UH TO START THINGS OFF, OUR elite team
1:17:41solos.

1:17:47Always Love You.
1:17:51Your runner-up with a score of 280.7
1:17:54points is Miss Brooke with act number
1:17:5742, Arm Yourself.
1:18:01This is the second week in a row that
1:18:03she got second place for her solo.
1:18:06I think Brooke did really well
1:18:07considering Abby was not there when
1:18:09Brooke needed her.
1:18:11All right, moving now into our elite
1:18:13junior solo division of competition. In

1:18:27points is Miss Kendall with act number
1:18:29nine, Secrets and Lies.

1:18:38points is
1:18:40Miss Sailor with act number 14, Can You
1:18:43Hear Me?
1:18:46Your runner-up from our elite junior
1:18:48solo division of competition with a
1:18:50score of 288.5
1:18:53points is
1:18:55Miss Maddie with act number 24, Uphill
1:18:57Battle.
1:19:00Maddie learned this dance three days ago
1:19:02and came in second place to a girl that
1:19:05has probably learned her solo months
1:19:07ago.
1:19:08We're going to be acknowledging our top
1:19:0910 highest scoring routines. Starting
1:19:11off in 10th place, which is act number
1:19:1378, Mad World.
1:19:18In ninth place is act number 72, Bring
1:19:20On the Men.
1:19:248th place is act number 83 Hero.
1:19:30In 7th place with a score of 274.2
1:19:33points is act number 84 Don't Ask, Just
1:19:35Tell.
1:19:38Who was that?
1:19:40And in 6th We finished in 7th.
1:19:42Um, I thought that was pretty good
1:19:44because I didn't think we would be in
1:19:45the top 10. Very well done, 7th place.
1:19:47The Abby Lee Dance Company.
1:19:49Congratulations. 6th place. Abby's
1:19:51probably not going to be happy about 7th
1:19:53place for this group dance.
1:19:55I don't know what she's going to make
1:19:56them do.
1:19:58Maybe boot camp again this week.
1:19:59No, I don't want it.
1:20:01I got to look back here.
1:20:02god, I have both of them.
1:20:03are still I'm like, "Where are THEIR
1:20:04COSTUMES?"
1:20:06GOOD JOB, GIRLS. HEY, YOU did hip hop
1:20:08and you made the top of the pyramid.
1:20:10What's up, girl?
1:20:12I'm happy. Really proud of you. You
1:20:13should be really proud of yourself.
1:20:19Oh, she surrendered.
1:20:23It's not funny. I'm surrendering.
1:20:26Yeah.
1:20:28I'm waving the white flag because I
1:20:29surrender. I give up. I am sick and
1:20:32tired of fighting with these miserable
1:20:34women to get their kids to the next
1:20:37level. What place? 7th.
1:20:407th?
1:20:42Maddie, 2nd?
1:20:44I thought you were great. I thought you
1:20:45were wonderful. I thought the kid was
1:20:46sloppy and a mess. Kendall, outstanding
1:20:49being
1:20:50in 4th overall. Maddie, she's chomping
1:20:53at your heels.
1:20:54Figure out if you want more.
1:20:57What about you?
1:20:592nd place. Just think if you worked this
1:21:03much harder.
1:21:04Chloe, I THOUGHT YOU LOOKED GOOD. You
1:21:06just shake your head and spot down on
1:21:07the ground from time to time. And you
1:21:09will work on that. Yes.
1:21:11You guys should have turned around in
1:21:13that line and attacked those judges.
1:21:17Personally, I don't know what Abby's so
1:21:18upset about. I mean, it's a hip hop
1:21:20number and hip hop is not exactly our
1:21:22forte. So, little piece of advice, Abby,
1:21:25if you want the girls to win, how about
1:21:27giving them choreography and a routine
1:21:30that they're good at?
1:21:31SOLDIERS, YOU ARE DISCHARGED. GO. OUT.
1:21:35I don't want to see you.
1:21:38Remember at the pyramid how I sent the
1:21:40girls out because I wanted to talk to
1:21:42all of you. You don't like me yelling at
1:21:43your kids.
1:21:44There was not one thing that I said that
1:21:46they didn't need to hear. Melissa,
1:21:49that kid should have won. She should
1:21:50have been 10 points above.
1:21:52You need to sit down with that kid and
1:21:55you need to figure out what we're doing
1:21:58cuz she could have just won that whole
1:22:00entire thing. She is throwing her talent
1:22:03away. And if she's in pain and she
1:22:06physically cannot do it, Kelly,
1:22:10it's time
1:22:11to not be dancing anymore.
1:22:137th overall high score? That doesn't
1:22:15sound like an overall high score to me.
1:22:17We went from 2nd all the way down to
1:22:197th. That's abysmal. There is something
1:22:22broken in the ALDC and I need to fix it
1:22:25and fix it quick.
1:22:28I will see you Monday and I'll tell you
1:22:29what.
1:22:31The kids need to be in class, ready to
1:22:33go at 5:30.
1:22:41Next on Dance Moms, the group routine is
1:22:43about Rosa Parks. Mackenzie, do you know
1:22:46what being benched is?
1:22:48I'm the only one who gets in trouble for
1:22:50wanting something for my child.
1:22:51of us do crazy stuff. DO SOMETHING WITH
1:22:53THAT FACE!
1:22:54WHAT'S THE status with Rosa Parks?
1:22:58We won last time. Remember that.
1:23:00men in their lives. They need men. Do
1:23:01you like affection? Who said they saw
1:23:03Cathy with a bodyguard?
1:23:05Maybe if we throw a stick, she'll leave.
1:23:07I'm not the one that fell down the ugly
1:23:09tree and got hit by every branch.
