00:00Good morning! Hello!
00:06Can I put myself here?
00:09Yeah, you guys right there is fine.
00:11Steve, so I'm gonna mic you guys up.
00:12Okay.
00:13I don't know if there's my fits in this breath.
00:15So sweet!
00:19Hi!
00:21Hello!
00:23What's going on?
00:25It looks pretty.
00:26Oh, I'm improving my mood.
00:28What?
00:29Yeah, well, if I gotta spend time with you guys again,
00:31I might as well do everything I can.
00:33Whatever works.
00:38Am I going here?
00:39Yes, that's your chair there.
00:42Oh!
00:44Are my boobs in?
00:46Season two, episode one.
00:49Oh, wow.
00:50All right.
00:51Lisa's interview, take one.
00:53Okay, so what happened?
00:55Last season was incredible.
00:59There were a lot of highs.
01:02First place.
01:03I think we ate and left no crumbs.
01:08And a lot of lows.
01:12If her foot is broken.
01:14I dance on a broken foot for a month.
01:16I dare you to come at me.
01:17Stop spitting at me.
01:18Oh, nice.
01:20Who made you her bodyguard, Jake?
01:22And in sixth place.
01:24Ninth place.
01:25Fifth place.
01:26Seventh place.
01:27Studio Blue Dance Center.
01:30So for us, winning nationals in Florida was amazing because we had such a tough season.
01:34Congratulations to our national champions, Body Bags and Studio Blue Dance Center.
01:42Until GLOW dropped the bomb on us.
01:44I think it's only fair that I let you all know now who will be coming back next season.
01:59I love all of you.
02:00And I have the perfect team, so you're all returning.
02:03We were champions, but when we got back from nationals, rumors started swirling around that
02:14Kim, the studio owner, owed money to competitions, owed money to the landlord.
02:19The allegations were endless.
02:21We started seeing pictures online of the court documents.
02:24The owner owed hundreds of thousands of dollars.
02:27Studio Blue is one of the largest in the country.
02:29The only way for this to fail was something nefarious.
02:32Nefarious or nefarious?
02:34Something nefarious was going on.
02:36And we start hearing that the studio stopped for lease.
02:38And Kim was nowhere to be found.
02:40There was like this eviction sign plastered on the door.
02:44Bye, Studio Blue.
02:45Studio Blue's reputation was now in the trash.
02:48And our kids were the face of Studio Blue.
02:51It was humiliating.
02:52It was really hard for me to know that the studio closed because I would go there like every day of the week.
02:58Yeah.
02:59It wasn't even just the point of like we lost our studio.
03:00We lost all of our friends and they weren't allowed to talk to us.
03:04I remember I had like a best friend.
03:05Like she stopped talking to me and like, not to sound like mean, but I feel like it's because like she wasn't on the team and she wanted to be.
03:11I just really hope.
03:13So the summer was hard.
03:14We knew we were going to follow GLOW, but to where?
03:17We didn't have anywhere to practice.
03:20We were scrambling.
03:21We were in Dominica's kitchen.
03:22We were in my basement.
03:23With everything being up in the air, Min decided to take Mina to another studio and they quit the team.
03:29How are you guys feeling about Min and Mina not coming back to the team?
03:34I think it just makes me upset because like she's Mina, like she was my little sister.
03:50After two months, GLOW finally announces she found an investor and she was taking over the old Studio Blue Space and it was going to be called Project X.
04:03We have to start from the ground and prove ourselves again.
04:07Everyone is watching these girls more than ever because they have gone through a lot.
04:13Winning, losing their home, being in limbo and now back, like now I feel like they're coming to get us even more.
04:20So these girls have to show the world that they're back and they're better than ever.
04:37Winning that national title was probably one of the biggest highlights of my career.
04:43I felt so good about this team and where we were headed.
04:46All of a sudden, my name is Mud because the owner's name was Mud.
04:50I was in panic mode.
04:52I had no income and then Kaylee had to come home to have surgery on her foot.
04:57My first thought was survival, like how do I make a living?
05:00What do I do to keep going?
05:02And you know, I knew I couldn't do it alone.
05:05So I brought in the next best thing to me, which is my daughter.
05:12I have been dancing on a broken foot for the past 10 years and finally last summer I couldn't take it anymore and I had to have surgery.
05:19The surgery basically forced me to move back home.
05:21Which was good for me and all of us because you were around when Studio Blue closed down and then you were here to help me open Project X.
05:30Yeah, you're welcome. You couldn't have done that without me.
05:32I like save the studio.
05:34She's been able to really take on a lot of the training and I trust her immensely.
05:41My mom and I are gonna not always have the same opinion for sure, but both of us together can make this team the best that it can be.
05:48Kaylee and I have not lived together full time since she was 16 years old when she left to go to ballet school in Philadelphia.
05:54Becoming a professional ballerina is exceptionally hard and my daughter is one of those.
06:00I dedicated every moment of my life and every penny I ever made for her to get there.
06:05I really hope that Kaylee does go back and pursue a career in professional ballet, but while she's still healing, I'm happy to have her here with me.
06:13Hi Bella!
06:15Hi Miss Bella!
06:16Hello!
06:17And with Kaylee's help, I intend to make Project X better than Studio Blue ever dreamed of being.
06:23But we can't do it alone. Every girl on this team has to live up to their true potential too.
06:28Welcome back guys. We have a lot of work to do. So, Miss Kaylee is going to be here full time this season.
06:40I think Kaylee brings a lot to the table and I think us working together is just going to be more beneficial.
06:47I think I'm going to be able to keep my mom a little younger.
06:52Glow and I, we're family. I mean, we've lived together for three years.
06:56But now that Kaylee lives with us too, I'm concerned.
07:00Their relationship has always been complicated and they have been at each other's throats.
07:05I just, I'm so happy that we got through this all together and that you stayed with us and that we stayed with you.
07:10Cause I don't know where we would be right now if we didn't.
07:13I love you guys.
07:17We love you.
07:18We love you.
07:19Yes, we love you guys.
07:20Yes, we love you guys.
07:21Tell your parents how much you love me.
07:24Mommy, I love Miss Glow.
07:26No, we love you. You're just expensive.
07:28But I'm worth it.
07:29You're worth it.
07:30You're worth it.
07:31You're worth it.
07:32Okay, on to the pyramid. On the bottom row.
07:38We have Gina.
07:39Gina, you had a solo at Nationals. You didn't place.
07:43I brought you in mid-season because I thought you were going to elevate this team.
07:48And you did push other people to work hard.
07:50But in the process, I don't think you were working to your full potential.
07:55Next on the bottom row.
08:00Lily.
08:01Unfortunately for you, Lily, one of the biggest problems that we had last year was your mother.
08:06You've improved. However, it's still a work in progress.
08:11Next on the bottom row.
08:17Smiley.
08:18You've worked really hard and improved.
08:20But you also had the most to improve on.
08:23Last on the bottom row.
08:29Audrey.
08:30You got fifth at Nationals.
08:31I don't know when you've ever gotten fifth.
08:33I'm a little concerned that you're about to go into high school.
08:36And with high school, we hit this fork in the road.
08:39And I've seen so many kids go by the wayside.
08:42I don't want that for you.
08:43Until I graduate high school, I want to do dance.
08:46I want to take that seriously.
08:48And then maybe after college, I can still do dance in, like, a company or something.
08:52Good.
08:54And the second row.
08:56Layla Bell.
08:58Layla was not Layla last year.
09:00Layla crumbled under the pressure.
09:02And my job as her coach is to help lift her up and get through those emotions that she couldn't handle.
09:08I saw you working really hard over the break.
09:10And I am committed to making you my personal project this season.
09:15I want you to be a star.
09:16I think they should all be your personal project, not just one.
09:19Are you jealous?
09:20A little.
09:21I mean, you got to have Kaylee in your back pocket.
09:24She's in the front one.
09:25I pay for it.
09:26Ooh.
09:27Friendship, too?
09:29Since Kaylee started teaching at my house, we got closer and became really good friends.
09:34I've been working with her a lot over the summer.
09:36Like, we were in my living room doing privates every single day.
09:39And I look up to her a lot because she's, like, a really good dancer.
09:42And she just feels like a second mom to me.
09:44And I'm really glad to have her not just as a dance teacher but as a person, too.
09:48Dominica hops from one person that benefits her to the other person.
09:51She knows that her daughter is the weakest on the team.
09:54So now let me get into Kaylee and then my daughter's with her 24-7.
09:58I mean, I would truly hope that that would help Smiley to maybe get a leg up at a solo.
10:05What am I going to say? No.
10:07Next on the second row, Bellatrix.
10:11You kind of disappeared a little bit last year.
10:14But you're here because I think you worked the hardest over the break.
10:17And you've improved the most.
10:19And on the top of the pyramid...
10:23Ashlyn!
10:26Ashlyn may have had some ups and downs, but at the end of the day,
10:30we won that national title because of Ashlyn.
10:33After seeing Ashlyn's performance in Body Bags,
10:36a talent management agency reached out and wanted to talk with her
10:41and see if she would be interested in working with them.
10:43And we were thrilled and honored.
10:45I've gotten, like, a lot of auditions for movies and stuff like that.
10:48Because of her performance.
10:52Dance is an art.
10:53Technique is important, but it could be about just how you tell the story.
10:57This week, we'll be attending Dream Maker National Talent Competition
11:02in Secaucus, New Jersey.
11:04We are only doing one solo this week.
11:12This is the very first time anyone will see us competing as Project X.
11:17Everyone's rooting for us to fail.
11:19It needs to be incredible, or else it's just going to be a letdown.
11:22You got this, Ashlyn. You got this.
11:25Oh, God. Are we all crying now?
11:27Miss Kaylee and Nicole are not getting along.
11:31I didn't become Teacher of the Year by just letting kids be sloppy
11:35and get away with things.
11:36I want to make sure she knows what to do, when to do it.
11:39My reputation is on the line.
11:41This team's reputation is on the line.
11:43And it's all on your shoulders.
11:45We're not looking for Project X to come out as an underdog.
11:52Miss Kaylee chose this soloist.
11:57I'm letting her have an opinion on this,
11:59because she thinks this person was most improved.
12:04So, Smiley, you will be doing a sassy jazz solo.
12:07I am not disagreeing that you have improved a lot.
12:13That being said, because I don't necessarily agree with the choice,
12:19I am going to also have Layla learn the same jazz solo.
12:24It's our first week out.
12:26As a new studio, I want my best foot forward.
12:30I would love nothing more than Smiley to rise to the occasion.
12:33But if you can't do it, I need to have a backup.
12:36And I know Layla can pull out a jazz routine in her sleep.
12:39I'm really glad that Miss Glove believed in me.
12:42It's just I thought maybe Kaylee would maybe choose me.
12:45But Domenica and Kaylee are really good friends.
12:48And she's really close to Smiley now.
12:52The group, it's called Breath of Life.
12:55We are going to pick up exactly where body bags left off.
12:59Ashlyn, you're the lead of the dance.
13:03You will breathe life back into each of these girls.
13:07Oh.
13:09With Mina being gone,
13:12that puts us right into the teen category this season.
13:16This is the very first time anyone will see us competing as Project X.
13:22So it is important that we are all doing our personal best.
13:27Let's do this.
13:29Let's go!
13:30Woo!
13:33Domenica, it seems like since you've gotten close to Kaylee,
13:37that that has worked in your benefit for Smiley to get special parts.
13:42Why? Because of favoritism?
13:44I really don't think Kaylee coming out the gates as Project X,
13:47she's not going to put somebody that isn't going to help win her jazz dance
13:51going against all the other teachers in the area
13:54that are about to put their best foot forward in the jazz dance.
13:56That's the reason why her mom interferes.
13:58They can have a difference of opinion.
13:59Yeah.
14:00Glo seems to think Kaylee's judgment's clouded right now
14:02because of your friendship.
14:03Domenica has been a good friend to Kaylee.
14:05Yeah, after Domenica was driving her around all summer,
14:08Kaylee would come over to my house and she would take breaks from her mom.
14:12It's really tough for them to live together when they haven't lived together
14:15since she was how old? 16.
14:17You have no idea.
14:18We know what it's like.
14:20We can only imagine.
14:21But that's the person's mother and daughter.
14:23You know how it is.
14:24It almost seems like Glo doesn't seem to be happy
14:26about the friendship with Kaylee and Domenica.
14:29Well, I want to know why.
14:30She probably thinks she's using her.
14:32And we're the only one.
14:33Come on.
14:34Like .
14:35Supposed to not scream.
14:37Supposed to be demure.
14:39Bella just wants me to be demure.
14:42Okay.
14:43We're going to start with the group.
14:48It's a continuation of body bags.
14:51You're trying to breathe life back into her.
14:54So here, look.
14:57Take your hands and now go down.
15:00I don't know.
15:01It's like the kids knows the story.
15:04What's the story?
15:06I'm seeing it as a metaphor for our studio shutting down
15:09and, like, coming back from the wreckage that, like,
15:12we all went through.
15:13All right.
15:14Can we try this for real?
15:16Slow down.
15:19Slow need to have it all.
15:21Who are you looking at?
15:22Call, call, call, call, call, call.
15:24Big sir, call.
15:25Okay.
15:26I beg.
15:27You're not listening to your music at all.
15:28This looks so chaotic.
15:31That's close-head.
15:33Purpose.
15:34Energy in your body.
15:35Hold your core tight.
15:36Lift up.
15:37Now look at her.
15:42Go!
15:43This is the first Dance's Project X.
15:46You know, it's been a year.
15:47They've been training all summer.
15:48They're older.
15:49They're going to expect this to be better.
15:52And slap.
15:54Look at her.
15:55Go, go, go!
15:56Look at them!
15:57What?
15:58Go, go, go!
15:59Seven, eight.
16:00Leg one.
16:01All right.
16:02I don't see dynamics or the phrasing behind it.
16:06Ashlyn's like my best friend.
16:08She needs to learn to dance first to show her emotion.
16:10Like, that's how Ashlyn works.
16:11That's just what she does.
16:13Right now, she doesn't feel as confident in it,
16:15so she's not working to her full potential.
16:17From the minute we started Body Bags, you were emotional
16:20and you were feeling something in your gut.
16:22It's not having the same effect.
16:24You had literally Hollywood agents that saw you and wanted to sign you.
16:29Do you think that he's not going to be watching?
16:31No, I think he is.
16:33I'm sure he is.
16:34You can't ever go backwards from that, ever.
16:37You have to take this more seriously.
16:39It needs to be incredible or else it's just going to be a letdown.
16:43Slow down.
16:50Slow down.
16:51Slow down.
16:52Slow down.
16:53Now stumble.
16:54Look at her go.
16:55No, that's...
17:04Ashlyn, I think you should go take a brain break.
17:06Get yourself together.
17:07Ooh.
17:08He's coming out.
17:09Uh-oh.
17:10Like, I have a lot of pressure because, like, the first dance-up Project X,
17:13like, it would probably be huge if we won first place for that,
17:15with me being the lead.
17:16Do you feel like you're feeling it?
17:17Are you feeling the story?
17:18Do you even understand the story?
17:19Well, not really.
17:20I know.
17:21I don't understand the story either, so maybe we need to talk to her.
17:23What do you feel like you're feeling it?
17:24Are you feeling the story?
17:25Do you even understand the story?
17:26Well, not really.
17:27I know.
17:28I don't understand the story either, so maybe we need to talk to her.
17:29No, what?
17:30And understand the story so that you can get the correct emotions.
17:31Just take a deep breath.
17:32Come here.
17:33You got this, Ashlyn.
17:34You got this.
17:35It's kind of confusing because, like, they just, like, died of fentanyl,
17:36and then now, like, it brings them back to life.
17:37It's hard to have, like, a lot of emotions for, like, to dance if I don't really even know
17:42what their story is.
17:43Layla.
17:44Layla, please put the chair back.
17:45Put the chair down.
17:49I-
17:50I-
17:51I-
17:52I-
17:53I-
17:54I-
17:55I-
17:56I-
17:57I-
17:58I-
17:59I-
18:01I-
18:02I-
18:03I-
18:04I-
18:05I-
18:06I-
18:07I-
18:08I-
18:09I-
18:10I-
18:11I-
18:12Hey, Layla, let's go, solo.
18:19Smiley!
18:21Okay, Smiley, I'm pushing for you to do the solo.
18:24Everybody's giving me a hard time, so don't let them win, okay?
18:29Smiley, I believe in you and that you can do this, too.
18:31I just don't know if you can do it this quickly.
18:33I have costumes coming for both of you just in case, okay?
18:37The name of Layla solo is this...
18:38Smiley.
18:40Right.
18:40The name of Smiley's solo this week is Little Sister,
18:44and it's a sassy jazz routine.
18:46And go, step, step, drag, go, and up.
18:50There's a lot Smiley can learn from Layla about her performance and style.
18:55She needs that little fire lit under her because she's, like, there but not there.
19:01Up and down.
19:02You come five, hold six.
19:04You're not going to be able to come here and lay shots right away.
19:06Layla's, like, literally dancing by herself.
19:08Is she supposed to teach both of them or just one kid?
19:11No, Kaylee's supposed to be teaching both of them.
19:13So it looks like she's only teaching Smiley.
19:16Why wouldn't she be focusing on Smiley?
19:17But at the end of the day, Layla is her backup.
19:19Five, hold six, seven, eight, one.
19:22Okay, Layla, stop, stop, stop, stop, mom.
19:25That's not staying out of her way.
19:27You stay behind her.
19:28It's her solo.
19:29You get to learn it because my mom is allowing you to.
19:31She's learning the solo as well, so she needs...
19:33As well.
19:34She's learning Smiley's solo.
19:35No, she's learning a solo that is going to one of them.
19:39I would like for them both to have the same equal opportunity.
19:43Love, wow.
19:44Even Chloe just said it.
19:45Clearly, Kaylee doesn't really want Layla to do it.
19:48Kaylee and Layla have always had a special relationship
19:51ever since they met when Layla was five years old.
19:54Layla's always looked up to her like a big sister.
19:56She thought she was Kaylee's favorite,
19:59and now she doesn't feel like she's her favorite anymore.
20:01She's been hanging out a lot with Smiley,
20:03and I just wanted to make time for her to hang out with me.
20:07It hurts Layla.
20:08Here we go.
20:09You got it.
20:11Spot Layla, releve.
20:12They're not shugged.
20:13Good, go.
20:13Keep going.
20:14Push.
20:14Arms.
20:15Use your arms.
20:16Arms.
20:17Why are you pulling your arms in like that?
20:19Got it.
20:20Keep going.
20:23Don't let yourself get anxious, okay?
20:26I can tell that you don't feel well.
20:28What's wrong with you?
20:29Her stomach hurts when she gets anxious,
20:31and she doesn't feel good.
20:33What?
20:34Her stomach hurts.
20:35Go get a drink of water,
20:37but you were to come immediately back in here.
20:43Let's go, Layla.
20:44I'll do it.
20:48Like vomit.
20:49Like vomit?
20:52Okay, breathe.
20:53Breathe.
20:54It's just a little bit of nerves.
20:56Anna, watch.
20:57Watch.
20:57Watch.
20:57Don't say that.
21:04It can totally be your soul.
21:05Smiley's been considered the underdog for a long time now,
21:08but her technique has gotten so much better over the summer.
21:11I think it's about time that Smiley gets to shine a little bit and, like, be seen.
21:15I'm trying to hurt it.
21:22It's really frustrating that my mom doesn't have the confidence in me as a teacher.
21:26No student is going to be able to grow if they're not pushed.
21:28You wink at her, you smile.
21:30You are having the time of your life.
21:32Kaylee wanted Smiley.
21:34She pushed for Smiley.
21:35Because she was trying to make me look fat, there is no going back.
21:38I just need you to work with me.
21:40You are killing it.
21:52You can't, like, give up now.
21:54This is, like, your biggest enemy right now, your stomach, right?
21:57Don't listen to that.
21:58I know that Kaylee is really proud of how hard Smiley's worked,
22:02but if you're too afraid and your stomach hurts because you're nervous,
22:06I can't put her on stage.
22:07What's the matter with you?
22:09Come over here.
22:11Look at me.
22:12You know how proud I am.
22:14Okay.
22:15If Layla does this,
22:18it doesn't mean that you haven't worked hard and improved.
22:21If you're going to be nervous and stressed,
22:23I can't put you on stage being nervous and stressed.
22:25And don't, like, you want this opportunity.
22:27Like, don't let that distract you from what you need to do.
22:31I just, I feel really bad because she was assigned this solo,
22:35and I feel like I have a good chance.
22:36Like, I feel like I've been taking away from Smiley,
22:38and she's, like, one of my friends,
22:41and I feel like I'm the reason she's nervous.
22:44Oh, God.
22:45Are we all crying now?
22:51Cheers.
22:52When you cheers, it is rude to not look at the person when you're cheering.
23:00Not when you're drinking.
23:01How's it going?
23:03How's it going?
23:05I feel so bad.
23:07I just wish that Glo didn't have Layla learn it, too.
23:10I didn't know that she was going to have Layla learn it.
23:12Why'd your mom do this?
23:13But I think it's because I, she knows that I come to you about her.
23:17My mom and I have never really been great at communicating and talking about feelings.
23:21Since I've come back from Utah, I've been living under her roof again, and I guess Tammy's roof.
23:27It's been a really hard time not knowing what the future holds for me.
23:30It's a really scary feeling, and not one that I want to be having at this age.
23:34Dominica has been there for me.
23:35I really respect her advice, and her words mean a lot to me.
23:38I think my mom gets a little bit jealous because of that.
23:42If I try to have my own opinion or say I'm going to do something, she doesn't let me.
23:48My mom hasn't been able to let me or not let me since I was, like, 18.
23:54Maybe that's why I, like, don't, I'm so bad at knowing what I want.
23:59Because I didn't get to make that choice of, like, what I did with my life.
24:02I didn't choose that I wanted to dance.
24:04I just had to go to the studio with her every day and was put in dance classes, and then that was all I knew.
24:10She's still pushing me to go to dance again, and I'm trying to explain to her that I don't know if that's what I want to do.
24:15And I feel like I can't let her down.
24:17I have to do it, but I want to want to do it myself and not for somebody else.
24:21Everything she thinks she did for me was all, like, dance-related and not for me as, like, a person.
24:26She reminds me all the time, like, how much money she's put in for me to dance, how much she's sacrificed.
24:30And, yes, I'm grateful for that.
24:33Like, that was not for her daughter, that was for her dancer.
24:37Yeah.
24:39Have you ever said that to her?
24:42I mean, I don't know.
24:44Why?
24:45I don't know.
24:47If Kaylee's going to help the team, then her and GLOW need to figure out their issues, because I don't want the girls to get caught in the middle.
24:53Yeah, yeah, yeah, feels like, right now, we've got all the countries we need to end, feels like, right now, we could do it all until the end.
25:09Yeah.
25:15Okay, Smiley, we're here, let's go.
25:17Yeah.
25:17Okay, let's go, come on.
25:18Okay, we're in heels.
25:25Amazing.
25:26Okay, come on, come on, warm up, take off your shoes, let's go.
25:30What earrings are they wearing?
25:31What color?
25:32Oh, I thought you were bringing your makeup bag.
25:35I heard the practice didn't go very well last night.
25:38I think the team is a little extra stressed going into competition today.
25:43Last night, GLOW called an extra rehearsal, and she was really hard on the girls.
25:47I am replacing all of you, if you don't get this right.
25:51This morning, Layla woke up to a text from Kaylee apologizing for GLOW's behavior.
25:57I think when GLOW is really hard on the girls, Kaylee takes it personally, because GLOW was
26:04really hard on her, too, but it made her a professional dancer, so maybe there's something
26:09to it.
26:10I think the rehearsal was a little bit of a struggle, because, ow, Miss Kaylee and
26:16Miss GLOW are not getting along.
26:18They keep fighting, and I think it's, like, not good for us to be in the middle of all of
26:25it, yeah, because when they fight, it's cooking up a bunch of time, and, like, she's just
26:28in a bad mood when she's talking to us, then.
26:31Is she being annoyed at Miss Kaylee and then taking it out on you guys, you think?
26:34Yeah.
26:35Yeah.
26:36I mean, Kaylee sent you guys a really sweet text last night, right?
26:39Yeah.
26:40A what?
26:41Do you have a text?
26:41Yeah, I saw a text.
26:42I didn't know about that.
26:43I didn't know about that.
26:44Hey.
26:46Everyone, listen up.
26:47Listen up.
26:48I need the soloist ready immediately.
26:51I have a big decision to make.
26:52I need to figure out which one of you is doing this today.
26:56Listen, we're gonna run this solo.
26:58Whoever's delivering will go on stage.
27:01Got it?
27:02Layla, do you need some sugar or anything?
27:04No.
27:05Okay.
27:08Come on.
27:12Let's go.
27:13Those logs are important.
27:15Look at Miss Glow in the eye, okay?
27:18You look at her.
27:19You wink at her.
27:21You smile.
27:21You are having the time of your life.
27:24You've worked for it.
27:26Layla, I'm bored.
27:32Stop looking at the floor.
27:37Not bad.
27:39All right, Smiley.
27:39You're up.
27:43Yes!
27:44Come on, go.
27:44Push.
27:45Push.
27:46Push.
27:46Go fight.
27:46Go push.
27:47Where are you going?
27:47Smiley.
27:49Smiley got a lot of opportunities taken away from her last season.
27:52Smiley, I'm not gonna have you do the dance this week, okay?
27:56Lillian, Ashlyn, you'll be doing the leads.
27:59I think that she deserves to go on stage, show everybody how much she's improved, but also
28:04just how much she's capable of.
28:05No student is going to be able to grow if they're not pushed.
28:09Finish big.
28:13You can't fall over at the end of the dance.
28:19Both of you stepped up and rose to the occasion, and I'm proud of you for that.
28:24The end of the day has to be my decision.
28:25Both of you stepped up and rose to the occasion, and I'm proud of you for that.
28:40The end of the day has to be my decision, right?
28:43Okay.
28:46Smiley, you gotta get the turns, and I'm so worried about that.
28:50Laila's gonna do the solo today, okay?
28:51Okay.
28:55Um, I just want to say, like, thank you for this, like, opportunity, because I was really happy.
29:00And?
29:05I'm just like...
29:06I still have to take off your makeup and your costume and all that stuff, okay?
29:15It takes a while.
29:16I don't think it's fair, because my solo would have been so much better if I had the full time,
29:21but, you know, like, I had to split my time with, like, Laila.
29:23No, it wasn't fair.
29:25Everybody knows it wasn't fair.
29:27I think that the biggest, like, gift that you could have given yourself this week was the way you worked.
29:32I'm so proud of you.
29:33I don't want you to think that I'm not proud of you, okay?
29:36Oh, jeez!
29:38What'd you get?
29:39Hey!
29:39Hey!
29:48I'm really glad that I get to be one of the first soloists to perform for Project X.
29:53I feel like if I don't do really good with my solo, I think I'm gonna get a lot of trouble
29:59I just really hope that I can show Miss Glow that I could do it and she picked me for a good reason
30:04Please welcome to the stage entry 770. This is Leila with Little Sister
30:23It's a great time to be alive, even though we're working, even though we're working out to five, gotta count your blessings
30:30Cause girl, we're lucky, yeah, we're lucky to be alive, oh yeah
30:36Little Sister, don't you worry, I got your back and all love, love was made to survive, oh yeah
30:46Feeling like a winner, I'm the top of the world, fuck everything I need, separate diamonds and pearls
30:50Cause I gotta play hard at the end of the day, I got a little bit of change to take the worries away
30:54And if you don't stop, we'll push you back, I'd put you back to the top and we're gonna grab you today
30:58Take a love and try to get rid of the world, pop yourselves
31:09And let it be one but grab looking doors
31:13Ooh
31:15Yeah, I feel like it was just my solar from the beginning I think I'd have a little more
31:44time to like prepare I really hope I get a good placement Layla did a really good job but it's
31:50really frustrating that my mom doesn't have the confidence in me as a teacher or Smiley as her
31:54student at the same time I do want Project X to be successful so for that reason I hope Layla wins
32:00so we're gonna forget about the solos time to get ready for the group everybody do your job
32:06you need to be able to hit those turns on time you need to be clean got it
32:14I'm really glad the solos went well but I can't shake this feeling that the girls are not prepared
32:21for the group dance how the practice has been going guys practice has been going crap because
32:27they're not listening they're not making corrections they don't do what they're supposed to do I just
32:31think that there's enough blame to go around it's been a lot of chaos it's not just us okay I think
32:37we're all overwhelmed I'm fine I am peachy all I know is the kids got a text last night with kind
32:43of an apology for how things went because she was trying to make me look bad no I was trying
32:47to make you look better I said that she really is proud of me I was trying to let them know that
32:52you really were proud of them I'm not sorry for telling the kids good job I'm not sometimes it
33:00does get awkward because Miss Kaylee gets like mad at Miss Glow what does Miss Kaylee do
33:04is that what it was Kaylee no I'm asking you answer that question do you know what the word
33:13elite means the best of the best right and if I don't have that I'm going to make sure that I do
33:20what I need to do to get that plain and simple look last night the group dance wasn't where it needed
33:26to be and I got it there so that's all that really matters at this point if Kaylee refuses to respect my
33:32teaching style then the moms aren't going to either and just so you all are very aware I have
33:3970 new students and I have 70 new moms that I can choose from at any given moment do you have anything
33:46else to say Ashlyn what do you think I think I can do it I need three emotions out of you tell her
33:54what the emotions are tell her what you're gonna do you tell her joy happy and sad no start out sad
34:01we are just teaching her what to do right now for body bags I didn't start crying in the beginning
34:09I worked my way up to crying but for breath of life I have to start crying right in the beginning
34:13just to cry in thin air those are two very different things listen when you're crying on the side
34:19you say I'm crying because all my friends are dead I just want my friends to come back to life
34:24I just want my friends back I know I don't want you to forget let me just see you going through the
34:32emotions no my friends are all dead they're not dying they're already dead
34:37my goal this week was to repair the damage that's been done to my reputation
34:45and your children's because of what happened with the other studio my reputation is on the line
34:52this team's reputation is on the line and it's all on your shoulders
34:55where's glowing Kelly we're the girls Ashlyn is supposed to get emotional in this dance and
35:11she has no idea when or how this is supposed to happen as her mother I'm not going to let Ashlyn
35:17go on stage and not know what she's doing well okay is someone telling her when to start crying
35:23so that she's not crying when the music starts she's supposed to be crying right now Lisa you know
35:27when you're supposed to cry when are you supposed to do it right before I go on stage okay so I know
35:32what I'm doing yeah you know how long you're supposed to do it you know you're supposed to start
35:35they gotta go okay I'm just yelling at your kid in front of everybody I want to make sure she
35:41knows when to do it coming to the stage we have a contemporary small group age 12 to 14 breath of
35:51life coming to the stage we have a contemporary small group age 12 to 14 breath of life
36:02slow down there's no need to have it all figured out quite yet I bet somehow life can be magical we never
36:32know what's coming next oh can you hear me calling out oh listen for the sound when the darkness comes
36:50comes no need to hide I'm by your side I'll be your light when you've had enough no need to hide I'm by your side I'll be your light
37:10you
37:40Sometimes I feel there's an illusion, somebody like you.
37:50Tell me why, if we're in trick of the night.
37:57Should we be a boy in the night?
38:01If we're in the trick of the night.
38:05If we're in trick of the night.
38:10Love is a trick of the night.
38:19Love is a trick of the night.
38:40I'm so proud of everyone for what we did.
38:42I just think overall, we could have done better.
38:45And I think we all know that.
38:46Could have done a lot better.
38:48It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good.
38:49It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good.
38:52Ashley was good.
38:53The dance was good.
38:54It wasn't body bags.
38:57Let's see what the judges think.
38:58I don't know.
39:05Ladies and gentlemen, make some noise for your dancers on stage.
39:10We're going to move into our 9 to 11 solo overall.
39:21Starting in 10th place, it's entry number 237, Make Way.
39:26I chose Layla for the solo over Smiley.
39:28Kaylee wanted Smiley.
39:29She pushed for Smiley, and I gave it to Layla in the end.
39:32And I just need Layla to prove me right.
39:35Fourth place.
39:36Let's go into entry 229, Anywhere But Here.
39:45In third place.
39:49Entry number 770, Little Sister.
39:55Second place, go into entry 229.
39:57I'm happy for Layla that she got third, but who knows?
40:00If my mom had let Smiley Dance this week, she might have won.
40:03I guess we'll never know.
40:05And last but not least, we have our 12 to 14 small groups.
40:12Starting in fifth place with entry 295, starting over.
40:17My biggest fear right now is having a repeat of last season's first competition.
40:24And in sixth place, Shattered Studio Blue Dance Center.
40:31We're not looking for Project X to come out as an underdog.
40:34We might not even play.
40:36Second place.
40:38Entry 240, To Be Loved.
40:41Oh, my God, if we didn't play it.
40:51Oh, my God, if we didn't play it.
40:54And your first place, 12 to 14, level 3, small group, will be...
41:00Entry 772, Breath of Life.
41:05Oh, yes, yes, yes!
41:12And loud and proud of the studio, do you represent...
41:14Project X to come out!
41:17Please take a round!
41:24Congratulations!
41:26Oh, my God, I messed up at the beginning because you stressed me out when you came backstage.
41:30Just tell her what happened, Ashlyn.
41:33Is she going to go up there?
41:34Yes.
41:34I'm sorry.
41:35Well, I thought I was in a place.
41:37Do it.
41:38Hey, first place!
41:43So.
41:44I'm so impressed.
41:45I thought I messed up in the beginning.
41:47I'll take full credit for not forcing you to do it in rehearsal because I trusted you and I thought you would do it.
41:53But it was nothing at all like body bags.
41:56There was an emotion.
42:01We were asking all week long for emotion from her.
42:04It's kind of confusing because you would not win because you said that you wanted us to win.
42:09I do want you to win.
42:10It's great that you won.
42:12But you obviously were feeling not okay about it, too, or you wouldn't have come over here and apologized to me.
42:19Because you didn't.
42:20You knew you messed up.
42:22You told me to go.
42:23Oh, you?
42:24Yeah.
42:24You told her to apologize.
42:26No, I told her to own up to her mistake is what I told her.
42:30Lisa, you were in your face backstage.
42:33She was asking you to leave.
42:34I didn't think there was.
42:35She was stressing out.
42:36You tell her to come apologize to me.
42:38Hold on.
42:38Why don't you take ownership?
42:40It's a year later.
42:41She's a year older.
42:42She is a Hollywood agent.
42:43And she couldn't come close to the last performance she did.
42:46Okay.
42:47It's not comparable to at Nationals.
42:48It shouldn't be compared to that.
42:49And yes, they won at a small regional competition.
42:51It's not.
42:52You can't compare that to her winning at Nationals.
42:54No, it shouldn't be compared.
42:56I agree.
42:57Moving on.
42:59Project X, first competition out, our group won.
43:02And that's really great for our name.
43:04But the bottom line is I don't know if I have a winning soloist.
43:09So I'm going to be bringing someone in next week who I think could possibly win.
43:17I'm sure you all, by now, know who Mia is.
43:22She's a new student at Project X.
43:24Oh, girl, you always think...
43:25Jing, I don't think you have a leg to stand on.
43:28This case is not training by you.
43:30Where do you think she's been dancing for the last three months?
43:33Three months.
43:34That is nothing.
43:39Mina not being here has really hurt the team this season.
43:42Not only was she a winning soloist, she also brought our age group down.
43:46The group won this week, but dancing in the team division is only going to get harder as
43:50the season goes on and the other teams get better.
43:57Jing is a lot of nerve.
43:59Oh, yeah.
43:59Yeah.
43:59Yeah.
44:03What's your problem?
44:07I didn't like that you were accusing me of trying to make you look bad when I sent them
44:10a text trying to apologize, like trying...
44:12No, Bob.
44:13I've watched you teach for the last 24 years of my life, and this is very out of character
44:17for you.
44:18I've been doing this for a very long time.
44:21I didn't become teacher of the year by just letting kids be sloppy and get away with things.
44:27This isn't just about yesterday, and you know that.
44:29I've done everything I can to get you where you are.
44:32And it's not a complaint.
44:35I would do it a thousand times over.
44:37And no matter how many times I say that, you come at me with, you're not proud of me.
44:47I feel like a lot of the times that you say you've been there for me is for me as a dancer,
44:51and right now I can't do that.
44:53I need you to be there for me as, like, a person.
44:55I know how hard it is for you not to dance.
44:58And I know how you question what's going to happen.
45:01And I think we have right now the best opportunity for both of us to be able to build this freaking
45:09amazing studio together.
45:11I wouldn't want anybody else there along by my side than you.
45:17But I'm going to be honest.
45:18I was terrified of us doing this because of this.
45:21It's hard for me because I need Kaylee to know that if she gives up her ballet career now, there is no going back.
45:29You can't take that much time off and go back to ballet at that level.
45:34I'm afraid she's going to not go back because I need her right now.
45:38I just don't want her to give up on something she worked so hard for.
45:45I don't want you just to sit back and settle.
45:49But I need you.
45:50I need you to do this because I can't do it alone.
45:53I just need you to work with me.
46:02We were going to have a new team member this week.
46:04I might look cute, but I'm a fighter.
46:07The girls are backup dancers to a 10-year-old.
46:10You could be the future of this whole studio.
46:13What?
46:14Push!
46:15Push!
46:15You're not going to let this break you.
46:17I'm never going to be proud of this.
46:18I know I'm not the part!
