- 3:47this girl's fault

- 3:50stick her on the end
- 3:51it's not a big deal now we're going to
- 3:53star power
- 3:54in lancaster not very far but a big
- 3:57competition
- 3:59lots of people from new jersey in the
- 4:00new york area will be in attendance
- 4:03it's a really big deal they entered 50
- 4:0560 numbers
- 4:06we're going with one group moving on to
- 4:09the pyramid
- 4:10on the bottom of the pyramid mackenzie
- 4:13when things are done in a contagion
- 4:15and you do it first and then paige and
- 4:17then nia when you do it
- 4:19so fast you make paige ania look like
- 4:21they're off
- 4:22like they're the ones that are wrong
- 4:24next
- 4:25nia the aerial walk-over got you into
- 4:28trouble
- 4:30don't let it happen again you need to
- 4:32slow down
- 4:34paige you really didn't do anything
- 4:36wrong but you're part of the trail
- 4:38so you have to take responsibility for
- 4:40it
- 4:41chloe chloe it was good
- 4:44but you get into those categories with
- 4:4711 and 12 year olds
- 4:49and you never get up there where i think
- 4:51you belong
- 4:52next i have brooke brooke
- 4:56you did a great job your technique was
- 4:59clean
- 4:59from where i was sitting i thought your
- 5:01facial expressions were wonderful
- 5:04i thought you were outstanding and on
- 5:06top of the pyramid
- 5:08maddie you went out there in 9 to 12 and
- 5:11you won
- 5:11at 9 years old maddie wins all the time
- 5:14and
- 5:15it's not that we're jealous of maddie's
- 5:16victories i would
- 5:18never rub chloe's victories in anyone
- 5:21else's faces
- 5:22if anything i try to downplay any kind
- 5:24of success chloe has because
- 5:26you don't want to create any kind of
- 5:27animosity and tension between these
- 5:29girls
- 5:29maddie you will be doing a solo this
- 5:31week entitled

- 13:24know why they have our because it's
- 13:25real it's a real part so we just
- 13:29auditioned for the show because
- 13:30maddie was slated for that part before
- 13:32she ever opened her mouth i always said
- 13:35that that role had someone's name on it
- 13:37and in my mind

- 15:34she's a different person she's in the
- 15:36witness protection program she's trying
- 15:38to escape kathy
- 15:39i think i like it the other color better
- 15:41joe when i left here last night i had
- 15:42two more meetings
- 15:43you're the one who said this is where
- 15:45she belongs you're interrupting
- 15:46rehearsal i told you last night it's
- 15:48inappropriate i don't do it to you
- 15:50i want you out the door go it's
- 15:53ridiculous
- 15:54you need some control over your mother
- 15:57yes
- 15:58i am much more concerned with the
- 15:59choreography in this routine
- 16:01than i am with jill and kendall i need
- 16:04to get back into rehearsal
- 16:05and make sure that this routine is ready
- 16:07to go to star power why is she screaming
- 16:09i didn't know what time rehearsal was
- 16:11and what did she say
- 16:12she said get out of here to you she's
- 16:15the one that made you quick to begin
- 16:16with
- 16:17your mother's actions throwing a shoe in
- 16:19texas
- 16:20is why she pulled you out of the studio
- 16:23despite abby's behavior i still want
- 16:26kendall on this team
- 16:27i want her to have these opportunities
- 16:29and to dance every week at these
- 16:31competitions
- 16:32you didn't want to leave now you just
- 16:33want to wall strike back in nintendo it
- 16:35doesn't work like that
- 16:36abby has made it very clear that she
- 16:37likes kendall she doesn't like jill
- 16:40i'm thinking maybe abby will let kendall
- 16:42back on the team just to piss kathy off
- 16:44just because she hates candy apples so
- 16:46much
- 16:47try to pick it up get in line this is
- 16:49ridiculous
- 16:51[Music]
- 16:56get out of the way kendo
- 16:58[Music]
- 17:00we're still rehearsing the routine with
- 17:02nick and six girls
- 17:04mackenzie was not appropriate for this
- 17:06certainly okay so i let her go
- 17:08take your belly out of here go to tap
- 17:11but i have kendall
- 17:12who i'm trying to ignore but i can't
- 17:14ignore and then
- 17:15i also have paige and mia who are a beat
- 17:19behind
- 17:20especially mia i'm going to cut some
- 17:22people
- 17:23what do you think jenna i think i would
- 17:24do it smaller smaller
- 17:27i just feel like nick's part is getting
- 17:29lost because there's so much chaos going
- 17:31on i need a cut of this routine down to
- 17:33three girls and a boy
- 17:34i'm going to watch each girl in
- 17:36rehearsal and then make my final
- 17:38decision
- 17:38at the competition okay mia i'm really
- 17:41on the border with you
- 17:42i want you to concentrate on your solo
- 17:44yes and you have to do something with
- 17:45that hair
- 17:46it's not appropriate every time i look
- 17:48at you it's like fun it's routine that
- 17:50they don't get picked
- 17:51necessarily for a trio or a duet but now
- 17:54there's a possibility that they will not
- 17:55be picked for group numbers you got to
- 17:56be kidding me
- 17:57paige i know you're a really nice little
- 17:59girl
- 18:00you're teaching kendall the number

- 21:58everybody to come in but i need you
- 22:01to get your crowns and get them on that
- 22:03table i even had to bring her crowns in

- 22:46that's pretty
- 22:46energy and maddie still wins just
- 22:49because she has better choreography and
- 22:50abby makes sure of that
- 22:52every week she makes sure that maddie
- 22:54has the best choreography out of this
- 22:55group

- 40:45baby and i'm not gonna let this happen
