00:00It was so escalated that day, I didn't know what to do.
00:03Don't blame your 14-year-old kid.
00:05Be an adult, put your bra on, and take care of your mom's business.
00:09Smiley.
00:10Yes, you did the dance, but you really gave the worst performance on stage.
00:15Bellatrix.
00:16The emotion was less than desirable.
00:21My goal was to repair the damage that's been done to my reputation
00:25and your children because of what happened with Studio Blue.
00:29In first place, Ballet Boys, Project X Dance Company.
00:35We are going to have nationals in New York State.
00:38The good news is we're undefeated, but nationals is a whole different beast.
00:44Next week, we're competing in our hometown, and I've been planning to include the dads.
00:49What if their dad can't come?
00:51I don't think it's something that we need to dwell on.
00:53Being upset here right now isn't going to help.
00:55She'll just kick us off. It's not mine.
00:58I don't think anyone really understands the pressure that I'm under.
01:18I know the team is excited because they've been winning, but I don't know that those were necessarily earned,
01:26and so I feel like that I'm doing something wrong.
01:28We're going to be local for the next two weeks, and then we go to New York for nationals,
01:34and all fair abuse competitions are more important than everything,
01:37and I just don't know that we're there.
01:40Get in my new.
01:41I mean, I want to win.
01:43I want to win for these kids, and I want to win for Project X and prove that 40 years haven't been wasted.
01:55Hey, everyone, let's go.
01:56Good morning.
02:02Good morning.
02:04So, seven wins.
02:07Winning is great, but when you have seven wins, do you want to lose?
02:12No.
02:13You know, we have to finish as strong as we start.
02:15We have to finish stronger than we started.
02:17Studio Blue closing tainted my reputation,
02:22and people just assume that I'm this bad person and that I have done all these things, and...
02:30Well, what's wrong?
02:31I don't know.
02:33The pressure of taking on the team, and then what happened with the old studio,
02:38and then opening this studio and being in charge of everything that goes on here
02:44and the successes and the failures, I think it's just catching up with me.
02:48And our next two competitions are local,
02:53which means we're going to be going up against people who have competed against us in the past
02:58who may or may not like us just based on Studio Blue and its reputation.
03:04And when we walk in, I want them to go,
03:08Wow, what a difference.
03:10If we can continue to win for the next several weeks and win at nationals,
03:14we have back-to-back national titles.
03:17But guess what?
03:17This one is way more important because this is Project X.
03:21You can't take that away from us.
03:22That's huge.
03:23Let's finish strong.
03:24Let's bring home that national title from New York City.
03:28And to help make that happen, we're doing something special this week.
03:31We are skipping pyramid.
03:33I see how much better you perform when you're emotionally connected to the dances.
03:38And that motivation is here today.
03:44Before the season even started, I had planned to bring the dads in to surprise the girls.
03:49I'm very aware of all the sacrifices these families make to be part of this elite team.
03:54We travel every week, so these dads never get to see their baby girls perform.
03:59Morale has been sucking lately, so I'm really hoping that having the dads here
04:04will give the girls the inspiration we've been lacking for the last few weeks.
04:08We're each other's dads today.
04:10I'll be Gina's dad and you be Audrey's dad.
04:12Okay.
04:13I really wish my dad was here because we're really close.
04:16Kind of just like this, like tight, you know?
04:18But yeah, it'd work.
04:20But I'm just really, really happy and excited that he's going to be at the competition this Saturday.
04:25She's my dad now.
04:26Okay.
04:27Yeah.
04:27I want to thank all of the dads for coming.
04:31I know it's not easy on you guys either, so we appreciate you, even though we don't see you like we see your wives.
04:38Maybe sometimes I'd rather see you than your wives.
04:41This is our first local competition, and I really wanted this to be a special weekend for the girls.
04:47To have your support there for them, I know is really special.
04:51It's sad knowing that everyone else's dad got to come.
04:55All dads got to talk to their kids.
04:57Mia knows how much I love her.
04:59I tell her every day, right?
05:00You know that.
05:01Yeah.
05:01But I don't know if I tell you often enough.
05:08Daddy!
05:08This girl makes me so proud.
05:10She's like the sweetest and kindest girl.
05:13Thank you so much for taking on all these girls and bestowing your knowledge upon them.
05:22There are so many times that I wish I could take her place, especially right before she goes off stage.
05:26But I know that it's important for her to get through it and get on there, and she's never failed me in my eyes.
05:38What do you think your dad would have said to you if he was here?
05:42I think he would have said, like, that he's proud of the person I've become.
05:48He makes me feel, like, very, like, protected when I'm dancing.
05:50Like, I'm always going to do good, no matter what.
05:54Like, as long as he's there, like, I'm going to do good.
05:57I know, Audrey and Gina, that your dads are extremely proud of you and all that you do, and they have every reason to be.
06:05Audrey and Gina!
06:10Moving on.
06:11This week, we are staying local, and we are going to Dancing in the Street in Laurel, Maryland.
06:18We are doing a fun, campy murder mystery.
06:22Oh!
06:22So far this season, the best dance we have put on stage is the material girl.
06:29I think Mia sold the heck out of it.
06:32So therefore, this week, Mia, you are going to be the lead of the group dance again.
06:36You'll love this.
06:41Guess what you get to be?
06:42The car!
06:45There's a weird, twisted little dark side inside that little cute face.
06:49It's important for me to give everyone a shot at having a solo for nationals, at being the lead of a team.
06:55So this week's solos are going to Smiley.
06:59And Bellatrix.
07:03Bellatrix is doing lyrical, and Smiley's doing jazz.
07:08Is Smiley doing who Paris Hilton is?
07:09So you know what they said about Paris Hilton?
07:13She's famous for being famous.
07:16She has no other talents.
07:18I didn't mean that.
07:20I just bet you're being her.
07:22I should not have said that.
07:24I realize I was sticking my foot in my mouth, but I really do love Paris Hilton.
07:29I'm actually flattered.
07:30Paris turned famous for being famous into millions and millions of dollars.
07:36She's an icon.
07:37She's a legend.
07:38She is.
07:39Smiley.
07:39The moment.
07:40What?
07:41It's a, like, trending sound.
07:43We're not insulted.
07:44We're inspired.
07:46Thank you, dads.
07:47We love you.
07:48Thank you for coming.
07:48We'll see you on Saturday.
07:50And don't forget, we need your help with all the props.
07:52I'm Paris Hilton.
07:54Bye.
07:57Bye.
07:58Thanks for coming.
08:00I was hoping that the dads would stay and then we could go home.
08:03Oh, yeah, yeah.
08:05That was so much fun.
08:06I felt really bad for Audrey this morning, and she handled it pretty well.
08:11I was a little upset, but I was trying to whisper, say something nice about Audrey and Gina.
08:15Because we all thought there was going to be two kids that didn't get.
08:19We all saw it.
08:19We knew it was coming.
08:20It's sad that Gina's dad is not here because he has to work.
08:25But I know he is going to the competition.
08:29I understand why Tammy is sad.
08:32At the same time, I just feel like Tammy lacks drama.
08:37It is frustrating, you know, how much I tried and, you know, telling him, you know, he only had to just stand there.
08:44I've been dreading this week.
08:46I'm just feeling a little defeated.
08:48Alex said he's coming on Saturday, but I don't know what he'll do, actually.
08:52You never know what's going to happen last minute.
08:55I had this, like, hope in me that he actually was coming and I was going to see him walk through the door.
09:00I know how hard this has been on you, but don't forget that you're strong and you're getting through it, right?
09:11And you're doing the best job you can, and we're all here.
09:14It's okay to be upset.
09:16Tammy, at the end of the day, you need to understand that we really do love you because we want the best for you and we're here for you.
09:22That's all this really is all about.
09:25I'm not a monster.
09:26I've known Tammy for years, and I see how hard this is for her.
09:30But for the team and for Audrey, I'm going to put our differences aside and be there for her.
09:35We're here for you always.
09:38So the group dance is called the resort.
09:42This is important for me because I really want to solo at Nationals.
09:46I really think that this week can be the breakout week.
09:48If I don't pull it off, that's going to be devastating.
09:51So Mia is the murderer.
09:53So you've been poisoning all your friends one by one, and you're going to hold your little bottle up,
09:58and you're going to look dead into the camera, and it's like, ha-ha-ha.
10:03Every time someone dies, you're going to be devastated.
10:07You go into hysterics.
10:10People wouldn't think it's you if you're having this breakdown about it.
10:14Layla just is dead on the floor.
10:17What are you going to do?
10:17You're over the top.
10:20Oh, no, keep going.
10:22Like, oh, my God.
10:23Oh, ah!
10:23I don't have to say the words, Layla's dead.
10:29You just found Layla dead.
10:30Now what?
10:31Oh!
10:32Oh!
10:33And you're over it now?
10:35Fine.
10:35Get it together so we can keep going.
10:37Oh!
10:38Oh!
10:39Oh!
10:39Oh!
10:40Oh!
10:41Yeah.
10:42You're stressing me out because you're going to start making me question you,
10:45and I don't want to question you.
10:46This is taking far too long.
10:49There are seven other girls in this room who would love a chance to do this, I bet.
10:54We're two weeks away from Nationals.
10:56I could easily pull somebody else who hasn't had the opportunity.
11:00This is a waste of time.
11:01She's not going to get it.
11:02Like, she doesn't get it.
11:03Glow has taken away a lead times.
11:05Yeah, she has.
11:07You know, I would love for this to be a great role for Audrey,
11:10but who I can actually see this being a great role for is Ashlyn.
11:16Every single time, Mia's been giving a test, and she delivered.
11:23That's why Glow's giving her another opportunity.
11:26These moms are like hyenas circulating and waiting for Mia to make a mistake,
11:31so then she loses her spot, so their kid can reach and grab it.
11:35But I'm not going to let that happen.
11:37Oh, she's crying.
11:38Okay, don't get down on yourself.
11:41I really think that you can lead this team,
11:44and I also think that you can be a lead at Nationals,
11:46and I also think that you're a star.
11:49You could be the future of this whole studio.
11:52Damn!
11:54The whole studio!
11:56That's a little dramatic.
11:58This is a joke.
12:01She is 10 years old, and she's breaking down at every second
12:05and needs to be coddled with kid gloves.
12:08That is not somebody other kids should be looking up to.
12:12Ms. Bill, can I talk to her?
12:17Mia, I don't know what to do.
12:19What do you mean?
12:20Yeah, this is not hard.
12:21Who thinks they can do this?
12:24You're about to give up your spot.
12:26That's what I'm scared of.
12:27I don't want to give up my spot every second.
12:29So stop.
12:30Stop.
12:31Oh.
12:34Ashley.
12:35Ashley.
12:37Can you breathe?
12:38Can you breathe?
12:40She's got in all these first places dancing.
12:42This is something completely different.
12:44It's not working out for her.
12:45The team thing says she's an actress.
12:46You have to book jobs to be an actress.
12:56Hear that?
12:56You're going to blow this chance.
13:01We are heading into nationals.
13:03You need to go out there and dance like your life depended on it.
13:06No.
13:07You should go home and buy her a spinning disc.
13:09She has one.
13:10And use it.
13:11If you walk off the stage and nobody felt anything, you're not doing your job.
13:16Oh, no, God.
13:16Why are you going to cry?
13:17I don't believe you.
13:21Ashlyn, you can do bigger face.
13:23Mia's been making a lot of mistakes, and you don't get upset at all.
13:26But when it's our kids, you scream.
13:27Mia has been killing it on stage as far as I'm concerned.
13:30I don't know what y'all are seeing.
13:32Maybe you're just jealous.
13:33In first place.
13:40Who thinks they can do this?
13:43You're about to give up your spot.
13:45That's what I'm scared of.
13:46Okay, so...
13:47Shh!
13:47You killed this person.
13:53That's right.
13:54Yeah, fake tears, crocodile tears.
13:57That doesn't sound right.
13:58I mean, I don't know that Mia can get it that quickly.
14:01You feel better now?
14:02Okay, I know you can't do it.
14:04Okay, bye.
14:05Okay, go.
14:07Welcome back, Mia.
14:09Ready to give it another try?
14:11Yeah.
14:11Okay, then I want you to try harder, okay?
14:13Let's go, Mia.
14:14The face of Project X.
14:17There you go.
14:25You're getting it.
14:25Keep going.
14:26Keep going.
14:28All right, we're way closer.
14:32Yay!
14:35Okay, moving on.
14:37At the beginning of the dance,
14:38there's going to be a dead body
14:40dragged to the center of the stage,
14:43and that person is the first person
14:46you find dead,
14:47and you are going to be hysterical.
14:50What?
14:50So someone starts off dead?
14:52Yes.
14:54Wait, that person doesn't dance, then.
14:56We have to figure out today
14:57who is going to be dancing
14:58and who is not,
14:59because we have to move forward
15:00with the choreography.
15:01Everyone is at risk at this point.
15:03All right, let's roll.
15:05But it's not even, like, body bags,
15:06where, like, Bellatrix went in first,
15:08but she got to dance at least a little.
15:10Right.
15:11This is someone straight up not dancing.
15:14Bachelin, you have to widen your legs.
15:16Your stance is not that close together.
15:18We're at home,
15:19and I'm sure everyone's families are coming,
15:21the dads are coming.
15:22Like, who doesn't want to not dance
15:23in front of their dad?
15:24Oh, my God.
15:25Oh, my God.
15:25Oh, my God.
15:26Oh, my God.
15:26Do you guys even take Bellatrix?
15:30Who's that?
15:31Always got to show your best, Smiley.
15:33Let me break.
15:36I think, Smiley,
15:37I'm going to make this
15:37really easy for you this week.
15:39I'm going to give you the gift of time
15:40so that you can work on your solo.
15:42You will get the part of the dead body
15:44at the beginning of the dance.
15:46And trust me when I tell you,
15:49you're all going to be dying off
15:50way faster than the body bags
15:51if you don't get it together.
15:53In my opinion,
15:54my mom is unfairly hard on Smiley.
15:57I don't think she should be
15:58the dead body right now
15:59because she has improved.
16:00She's been a great team player.
16:02She's been a great group member,
16:04and she's not been
16:05what's bringing this team down.
16:08But in her mind,
16:09it's just her way or no way.
16:14Come on.
16:15She can handle both dances.
16:17It's not necessary.
16:18All right.
16:18Well, here's what it is, Dominica.
16:20So what happens
16:20when she focuses on her solo
16:22and then she still
16:22is not good enough for you?
16:23At what point do you start
16:25to build her up
16:26instead of tearing her down?
16:27Because I'm sick of it,
16:28but she's not.
16:29I'm sick of it.
16:30Okay, well, I'm sorry.
16:32Smiley, I want you
16:33to work on your solo.
16:37I'm making a decision
16:38that should be beneficial to you.
16:40Got it?
16:42Okay.
16:42Okay.
16:42So I've been wanting all season
16:57to do what I do best,
16:59which is pretty lyrical.
17:00And you get to do that.
17:03Ever since I was little,
17:04I've always wanted
17:05to be on Broadway.
17:06I'm so happy
17:07Ms. Glow gave me a solo
17:08because I want to prove
17:09to her that I can have
17:10a starring role
17:11at Nationals
17:12in New York City.
17:13You've got to bring
17:14out that personality.
17:15I can't depend on you
17:17to give you lead parts
17:19or to give you more solos
17:20or to dance at Nationals.
17:21If you can't be more vulnerable,
17:24just don't hide in the shadows.
17:27That's what I mean
17:27by disappearing.
17:28If you walk off the stage
17:29and nobody felt anything,
17:31you're not doing your job.
17:33Oh, no, God.
17:34Why are you going to cry?
17:35I guess, like,
17:36I've tried my best
17:38to show much emotion,
17:40but, like, I guess, like,
17:41I get worried
17:42people are going to judge me.
17:44I'm afraid that
17:45if Bellatrix doesn't place
17:47high, that, you know,
17:48Glow's going to feel disappointed.
17:50Bellatrix is going to see
17:51Ms. Glow being disappointed in her.
17:53And my biggest concern
17:54with that is that
17:55Bellatrix will, you know,
17:56lose her love for dance.
17:57Hi.
17:58Sorry, I'm not
17:59trying to cause trouble.
18:01Okay.
18:02I just want her to
18:03defend herself.
18:04You defend her enough
18:05for everybody.
18:06I know, but I don't
18:06want to speak for her.
18:08Yes, you do.
18:09You always speak for her.
18:09I don't want to.
18:10Maybe that's why
18:11she doesn't speak for herself.
18:12Maybe.
18:14Bellatrix,
18:14this is what I want you to do.
18:15I mean, you look at me right now
18:16and I want you to tell me
18:17how you feel.
18:18Like how I feel about...
18:19About anything.
18:20When she's telling
18:20that you're disappearing,
18:22that she's...
18:22Now you don't feel very...
18:23You're speaking for her again.
18:24Stop talking.
18:25Did you probably just
18:26be there?
18:27She could.
18:28Do you want her to?
18:29Tell her.
18:29You tell her.
18:30Get out.
18:30I feel that Bellatrix
18:40has spent so many years
18:41seeing her mother
18:43have this very outgoing
18:45personality speaking her mind.
18:47And I fully believe
18:48that if Bellatrix
18:49can get out of Roxy's shadow
18:50and step into her own light
18:52with this dance,
18:53Bellatrix can be a superstar.
18:54I want you to go out
18:55on that stage
18:56and blow everyone's minds.
18:58Wouldn't it be amazing
18:59for this to be your first win
19:01in our hometown locally
19:04with your father there?
19:06What a moment that could be.
19:08Let's go.
19:11She hasn't placed in a long time.
19:14She's not emoting.
19:15She's not showing
19:16that she wants it.
19:18You show that you want her
19:19to be a star,
19:20but she's not showing that.
19:21What a moment that could be.
19:22Nice.
19:24That was pretty churned.
19:26We don't have anything special,
19:28but her hard work
19:29is what makes her
19:31look like she's,
19:33like, has this glorious house
19:35with these big mirrors
19:36and this big fancy studio.
19:38We don't have that.
19:39You know, it's been hard.
19:40It's always someone
19:40who just has that extra money
19:42to pay for more private classes.
19:43Like, I don't have the luxury
19:45of having that extra money,
19:47but Bellatrix is proof
19:48that you don't need
19:50this fancy stuff
19:51for your kid
19:52to be a good dancer.
19:53With a good teacher
19:55who believes in you
19:56and pushes you,
19:57that's all you need.
19:58She's got the technique.
20:00What's the emotion?
20:01I think she needs
20:01to talk about something
20:02that is really deep
20:04and meaningful to her,
20:05like her dad.
20:08You know, Bellatrix,
20:09the steps are gorgeous.
20:10You couldn't probably
20:11dance it any better,
20:12but I need you to perform.
20:15I really am nervous.
20:17Just because your daughter
20:18has the most beautiful,
20:19perfect technique,
20:20we don't know
20:21what the judges want.
20:22Well, lyrical usually wins, though.
20:24Not if you don't perform it right.
20:26What does it feel like
20:27to have strong faith,
20:29bigger, everything?
20:31Can Bellatrix just let go?
20:34I don't know, dude.
20:35More, more Bellatrix
20:36in your body, body, reach.
20:38She better let go.
20:45G-L-A-M.
20:47G-L-A-M.
20:49G-L-A-M.
20:51Hi, Paris.
20:52I used to wear
20:53little skirts like that.
20:55I mean, I was doing that
20:56until not so long ago.
21:00Dead.
21:01But look, you're all
21:02pinked out today.
21:03There you go.
21:04So you can channel
21:06your inner Paris.
21:07Do you even know
21:08what that is?
21:09Have you ever seen
21:10a phone like that?
21:10Is this a flip phone?
21:11Yeah.
21:12Just flips?
21:13Yeah.
21:13I don't think I've ever
21:14held a flip phone
21:15in my hand before.
21:15This is very cool.
21:18Are you kidding me?
21:19It takes a lot
21:20for me to feel old.
21:21And this did it.
21:23Yeah.
21:24All right, pose.
21:24Dripping the fitness.
21:25Oh, my God.
21:27You just totally transformed
21:29in front of our eyes.
21:30That's so hot.
21:31Yeah.
21:31Smiley's solo this week
21:41is a jazz routine.
21:42And it's make or break
21:44for Smiley.
21:44I worry that it's not
21:46in Smiley's best interest
21:47to continue on a team
21:48that she can't keep up with.
21:50Yeah, but I'd much rather
21:51work with a kid like Smiley
21:52who wants to be there
21:53and wants to work hard
21:54over a kid who doesn't care
21:55and wants to quit
21:56every single week.
21:57Not mentioning any names,
21:58but you know
21:58who I'm talking about.
21:59I get it,
22:00but unfortunately for Smiley
22:02at this level,
22:03it doesn't matter
22:04how hard you work
22:05if I don't see results.
22:06And I need to see results
22:08from Smiley.
22:09Up, spot.
22:10Don't fight your arms.
22:12Pull up.
22:13You gotta pull your arms.
22:15Don't push forward.
22:16Push right up
22:17onto that leg.
22:19Nope.
22:20I think Smiley's turned.
22:22You should go home
22:23and buy her a spinning jit.
22:24She has one.
22:25She has all the turning
22:26and practice.
22:28And use it.
22:28Every single week,
22:30the joke for us,
22:32if the mannequin said,
22:33Smiley can turn,
22:33Smiley can turn.
22:35Smiley is done like one turn.
22:36She said,
22:37oh my God, she did it.
22:38She didn't make a mistake
22:39last week while so many
22:40of the other kids
22:40made a mistake last week.
22:42You know, like Ashlyn
22:43tends to put her heel down a lot.
22:46Me, I couldn't do
22:47a double pirouette.
22:49Like, don't come at me.
22:51The bus Dominica's driving
22:52today is so big,
22:54she just keeps throwing
22:55every kid under the bus,
22:56under the bus.
22:57Literally, it's not
22:58throwing them under the bus.
22:59I'm legitimately putting
23:00a point out
23:01that it's not just my kid.
23:03I'm tired of my child
23:04hearing that she's
23:05not good enough
23:06and that she may not
23:07be good enough
23:07when it matters most,
23:09which is in nationals.
23:10The reason that I defend Smiley
23:13is because I didn't have
23:14that person in my corner
23:15who said to me,
23:16good job every day.
23:17We lived in a third world country.
23:19My dad was never home
23:21and my mom was unable
23:23to be there for me
23:23all the time.
23:24So when I became a mom,
23:26my first priority was
23:28to be better than that
23:29and to show up for my kid
23:31and to be her biggest fan
23:33and her biggest cheerleader.
23:34I want you to get better
23:36not only for yourself
23:37but for the reputation
23:39of our studio
23:40and what we do here.
23:42Like, do you want
23:43to be a dancer?
23:44I want to dance
23:45with Marlon on the side.
23:46Then you need to
23:49make yourself get better.
23:51I want you to remind me
23:52why I chose you
23:53for this team.
23:54If I don't see you
23:56getting there faster,
23:57then I have to figure out
23:59if you're going to even
24:01dance at nationals
24:02or if you belong
24:03on this team.
24:04Oh, damn.
24:05Smiley should show her
24:06I'm not just a pretty face.
24:08She needs to bring it.
24:21Oh, we're not back in love.
24:23Oh, I'm stretching it.
24:25Like I'm walking
24:26into a resort.
24:27I'm stuck on a palm tree.
24:29I love the wig.
24:30I need a solo
24:32so you get ready.
24:33This is a really important week
24:35for me and this team
24:37and our studio.
24:38It's our first local competition
24:39is Project X
24:40and people associate me
24:42with Studio Blue
24:43and I am not Studio Blue.
24:45There is no better way
24:47for me to repair
24:48my reputation
24:49and the studio's reputation
24:50but by winning.
24:52Can you please start stretching?
24:54Yeah, I'm fine.
24:55Okay.
24:56Well, just pay attention to me.
24:58Are you listening?
24:59Mm-hmm.
25:00Because I feel like
25:00this is like your only shot,
25:02literally the only shot
25:03that you have.
25:04You promised me
25:04you're going to do it.
25:05You're going to work
25:06your ass off
25:06and dance so hard.
25:07I know I'm usually
25:08not that mom that fishes you
25:09but I feel like I have to
25:10because you're not doing
25:11anything I want
25:11and I'm sick and tired
25:13of Ms. Glo saying that.
25:14Are you tired of it too?
25:15Yeah.
25:15So what are you going
25:16to do?
25:18I can't hear you.
25:20Put the mascara,
25:21the lipstick away.
25:23Okay.
25:23Okay.
25:24The biggest fear right now
25:25is to play it safe.
25:27I don't want her to play it safe
25:28because it's literally
25:29her only shot
25:30that Glo is giving her.
25:31This is it.
25:31Like, there's no chances
25:32right now.
25:33All right, guys,
25:34come over here for a second.
25:35You are given probably
25:37the best opportunity yet
25:39on this team
25:39to have a solo
25:40in your hometown.
25:42You're dancing
25:43for the first time
25:44in front of your fathers
25:45this season.
25:47I'm really, like,
25:47happy this year
25:48because I don't get
25:49to see him anymore.
25:52He works from, like,
25:537 a.m. to, like,
25:54sometimes he won't even
25:55get home until, like,
25:5611.30.
25:57When I do get to hang out
25:58with him, like,
25:59we have a lot of fun together.
26:00So I'm just very happy
26:01that he gets to see me dance,
26:02especially this week
26:03since I have a solo.
26:05My dad is also, like,
26:06my best friend.
26:07He's actually, like,
26:08my number one fan.
26:09And, like, he always
26:09supports me.
26:10And, like, he, like,
26:11gives me the best
26:12pep talks ever.
26:14I love hearing about them
26:16and I love how special
26:17they are to you.
26:19And you know that
26:20you're special to them.
26:21So I have a surprise
26:22for you.
26:23Dad!
26:24Lori.
26:32She looks adorable.
26:34She looks like a Barbie.
26:35Smiley, I want you
26:36to go out there
26:38and believe in yourself.
26:39I want you to have
26:40the time of your life.
26:41I want you to embrace
26:42Paris Hilton.
26:44Just have fun.
26:46And Bellatrix, my dear,
26:48the emotion that I see
26:49when you talk about
26:50your father
26:50is so real and genuine.
26:52Try to take that
26:53and take it onto the stage.
26:55Don't be guarded.
26:55We are heading into nationals.
26:58We have one more
26:59competition, our regionals.
27:01You need to go out there
27:02and dance like your life
27:03depended on it.
27:04Your life might depend on it.
27:06Life on the team.
27:07Show me why you're here.
27:08Prove to me you belong here.
27:10I think they both need to
27:11sink or swim today.
27:12So I'm hoping they do not sink.
27:14You're awesome.
27:15Just relax.
27:16Go out there and do what you do.
27:17Pretend like you're
27:18Freddie Mercury on stage.
27:20I'm not scared of nothing.
27:21You're out there to kill it.
27:22Yeah.
27:40I'm really, really happy
27:41that my dad's going to be
27:42here watching me.
27:43And I'm just like
27:44really excited to perform.
27:46I think knowing that
27:47he's here with me
27:48is going to help me
27:49have a lot more emotion
27:50on stage.
27:50This is my dance.
27:52I'm going to go out there
27:53and kill it.
27:55Bellatrix is one of
27:56the best technicians
27:58on this team.
27:59But as soon as the spotlight
28:01is on Bellatrix,
28:02she crumbles.
28:04I know Bellatrix has
28:06more in her than that.
28:07If Bellatrix can just
28:09believe in herself
28:10a little bit,
28:11this kid is going to be
28:13the star of this team
28:14very soon.
28:15Next up,
28:16Advanced Solo
28:17Junior Lyrical.
28:19Please welcome
28:20entry number 185
28:22with
28:22Someplace Else.
28:28Let's go guys!
28:30Come on baby,
28:30let's go!
28:31I got carried out to sea
28:46on a wave of hope
28:49My faith was strong
28:53My heart was filled with
28:57Innocence and dreams
29:00Of what could be
29:03But sometimes dreams get
29:08shouted by
29:09The daylight's
29:10Dreaming in
29:12And somewhere down the road
29:17We lost each other
29:20Somewhere down the line
29:24We lost ourselves
29:27Too much for us
29:30To place the storm
29:32To place the storm
29:32Together
29:33To place the storm
29:33Together
29:34To place the storm
29:34Together
29:35To place the storm
29:36Together
29:36Which name
29:37We broke
29:37And woke
29:38And woke
29:38And up
29:38Someplace
29:39Out
29:40Let's go!
29:42And somewhere down the road
29:44We lost each other
29:46We lost each other
29:48And somewhere down the line
29:51We lost ourselves
29:54We lost each other
30:24That was beautiful
30:29That was beautiful
30:29You want to turn with it?
30:37Like the other
30:37I held it
30:38You did so
30:41It was gorgeous
30:43She did such a good job
30:45I have never seen
30:46Bellatrix dance like that
30:47She was emoting
30:48And I believed her
30:50Yeah
30:51It was really good
30:52If I do this all the best I can
31:05I think that will prove to Ms. Cole
31:06That I deserve to be on this team
31:07Because I do
31:08I mean
31:08She put me on this team for a reason
31:10And I'm going to show her that reason
31:11She's competing against
31:14How many souls did they say?
31:1534
31:1634?
31:1736?
31:17Great
31:17I'm not delusional
31:19I don't think Smiley is going to win today
31:22Especially with a lot of competition
31:24But what she can do is impress me enough
31:28To show me why I should keep her on the team next season
31:31Next up, entry number 184
31:35That's so hot
31:37Next up, entry number 184
31:50That's so hot
31:52Every girl pops
31:58Every girl on top
32:00I know you're here for this
32:02If you're feeling wild
32:06And you're looking for
32:08You better be here for this
32:11Come on
32:12I'm not the kind you can have and hold
32:25Boy, I don't need no permission
32:28Girls, we want to be scripted
32:31We want to write the rules
32:33If I'm too much, I'm not the girl for you
32:37We don't need you to fix it
32:40Ain't nothing to discuss
32:41Stand aside, come on
32:43There's no stopping us
32:46We want to write the rules
32:47Come on, come on, my girls
32:50If I'm too much, I'm not the girl for you

32:58We can rule the world
33:02Every girl wants
33:03Come on
33:05What is wrong with me?
33:19She did great
33:19I'm so proud of her
33:21That was the best I've ever seen smiley dance
33:23I feel really good
33:24I know my triple
33:25I had energy
33:27And I did my aerial
33:29I think I did everything I needed to prove this to them wrong
33:32I think I made Paris Hilton very proud
33:34That was so good
33:37Amazing
33:38So proud of them
33:39Like, smiley got her triple turn
33:41What'd you think about that triple?
33:43Oh my god, please
33:45You are such a hater
33:47I just tell you the shoes
33:48Jing, I saw your husband's here
33:51Tammy, did Alex show up?
33:55I haven't seen him yet, but he texted me and asked for the address this morning
33:59Do you think he'll help with the props?
34:00No
34:00I think he'll just stand a seat
34:02I see you bending over backwards
34:04Like, obviously divorce is hard
34:05She's doing everything, dude
34:06You are so kind
34:07All you have to do is get a palm tree and put it on stage, you know?
34:10Right
34:10I mean, if this is how he shows up for his daughter
34:12I can only imagine how he showed up for you in your marriage, you know?
34:15Like, I get why you're leaving him
34:17I'm proud of you
34:18Thank you
34:19Oh my god!
34:22Yes!
34:22My little mommy!
34:24My daddy!
34:27Full, like, your triple
34:29Adele!
34:30I am so proud of you guys
34:34How did that feel?
34:35So good
34:36Both of you definitely had the breakthrough that I've been waiting for with you
34:40Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but none of this means anything if the group is a hot mess
34:46We have a lot of work to do
34:49The dads are all here to watch
34:51Take advantage of it and use that like these girls did
34:53I will do anything for Audrey
34:59And I've tried really hard getting Alex to come to the competition
35:03If Alex doesn't show up, I'm going to have a really heartbroken kid
35:06Let's, like, kind of, though, get a move on
35:09Can I help you now?
35:11Oh my gosh
35:12Wait, Twitter
35:13I know, I haven't even tied it yet
35:14Twitter
35:15What am I doing with the bow?
35:16Is it a...
35:17I don't know, but why do you take so long to get her ready, Dominica?
35:19So she can look good
35:20So she'll look good lying on the ground?
35:22A roll is a roll
35:23Alex, just come here
35:25Wait, oh my god
35:27Please, a little bit of hairspray
35:28Let's go, guys
35:30Come on
35:30We have to run this dance
35:31Help, help
35:33I can't hear you
35:34I'm in a shower
35:36Bigger
35:37Bigger hips
35:39I don't believe you
35:42Bigger for this part, you guys
35:43Point your feet, Gina
35:44Ashlyn, you can do bigger face than that
35:47Watching this rehearsal is like watching slop
35:50It's giving school lunch and not stage performance
35:54I don't want to lose
35:55Because a weak performance in our hometown
35:58Open your arms
35:59Out, out, out
36:01Is only going to give this area something to talk about
36:05And it will be good
36:07Too many mistakes
36:08Too many sloppy arms
36:10Too little face
36:11Mia, I'm putting a lot of trust in a 10-year-old
36:16All eyes are going to be on you
36:17You have to sell this
36:19And you have to perform it
36:20You can make or break this
36:22I didn't do this thing
36:23It's okay
36:24I'm still looking at what's going to be happening in internationals
36:27And I really, really assume you will be a shoo-in
36:30Why you don't call out someone and forgot her routine?
36:34Why you always call out our kids?
36:38That's true
36:38You're talking to me
36:40Yeah, she's talking to you
36:41Even when you say me his name, you go, Mia
36:44Mia
36:45Bellatrix
36:46I mean, she is right
36:48Mia's been making a lot of mistakes
36:50And you don't get upset at all
36:51But when it's our kids, you scream
36:52Mia has been killing it on stage as far as I'm concerned
36:55I don't know what y'all are seeing
36:56Maybe you're just jealous
36:58I can't have Mia fall apart before she walks on stage
37:04If these parents are a little butthurt
37:06Because I'm speaking to her in a different tone
37:09They need to get over it
37:10Because guess what?
37:11Mia is pulling out the wind for these girls week after week
37:14So suck it up, moms
37:15Mia, just focus on yourself
37:17Exactly, ignore the people who are jealous
37:19All right, kill it, ladies
37:20Get ready for the best new thing
37:25Get ready for the best new thing
37:29What you want, I got it
37:32What you want, I got it
37:34What you want, I got it
37:36I got it
37:38What are you feeling like?
37:39Very nervous
37:39Like very, very, very nervous
37:41Like very, very nervous
37:43I'm the lead of the group
37:45And I can't mess up
37:46Because we're really close to nationals
37:47And this is Ms. Glow's decision
37:49If I get a solo on nationals
37:50Or if I can beat the lead
37:52So what are you going to do?
37:54Kill it
37:55I have to kill it
37:56Like dance, kill it
37:57And then I have to kill all the people
37:58I don't see it
38:11I just want to go out there
38:14And I just want to dance
38:14I want to dance with my dad
38:15And I just want to make him proud
38:17I don't care about anything else
38:19I just
38:19I'm just kidding
38:21I don't see it
38:29I just want to dance with my dad
38:31Daddy, sorry
38:35Sorry, sorry
38:36It means a lot to me that he's here
38:49And then he tried to come
38:51Because I know that
38:52I know that he was like
38:53Most of the time he's not able to
38:55And that's why he couldn't come earlier
38:56And I'm just so happy

39:47Help!
39:48Oh, my God.
40:18Oh, my God.
40:48I think the turns are really good.
41:05I didn't mess them up.
41:06I didn't mess anything up.
41:07You did great.
41:07I think she sold it really well.
41:09I think she was funny.
41:10But the second part of the turn combination, Mia got behind.
41:14I don't want to ruin our winning streak.
41:16We've done so well.
41:17I don't want this to be the one that takes us out.
41:18We're going to announce our top advanced junior solo.
41:3132 entries competed this afternoon.
41:35In 10th place, entry number eight, Swan of Leyda.
41:40I felt like Miss Go could just really see the improvement on stage.
41:43But I'm really worried about not placing good because I danced against so many other people.
41:487th place.
41:50That's so hot.
41:51This is the happiest I have ever been about a 7th place win.
42:02Was she the strongest dancer?
42:03No.
42:03But she hit everything that was given to her.
42:05And she did it with confidence.
42:08But is this enough to guarantee her a spot on this team next season?
42:12I still don't know.
42:13In 3rd place, entry number 72, I Love Paris.
42:20I'm just feeling all the emotions because they haven't said my name yet.
42:24And they just called 3rd place.
42:26So I'm just really scared I'm not going to place at all.
42:29In 2nd place, entry number 37, I Didn't Know My Own Strength.
42:35Yes, she got 1st place.
42:36Yes, she did.
42:37And in 1st place, entry number 185.
42:43Someplace else.
42:50Oh my gosh, I'm so happy.
42:53I feel like having my dad here made such a big difference.
42:56I haven't won 1st place since I was like 7 or 8.
42:59I think Miss Glow is going to see a different me going into nationals.
43:02Next up, top advanced junior small group in 7th place, entry number 34, Requiem.
43:12I feel like all the pressure is on me now.
43:16Being in our hometown this week, trying to hold on to this undefeated season, this is our chance to show everybody what we're made of and prove all of the haters wrong.
43:272nd place, entry number 31, Infinity.
43:36And in 1st place, entry number 186, The Resort.
43:45Winning this 8th win in a row in our hometown means more to me than any win I had last season.
43:57All of the local studios wanted to come and compete against us, but Project X came out on top.
44:03It shows people that I'm still the best dance teacher in this state.
44:08Nice job dancers, tell us where you danced.
44:11I'm at that dance company!
44:22Did he leave?
44:24Did he leave?
44:26He left already?
44:27Got the right kid.
44:36Yeah, find the right kid.
44:38Find the right kid.
44:41He's so proud of you.
44:45It was really good, like, seeing my dad outside.
44:48I love him a lot, and it feels good, like, knowing that he came.
44:53That means more than, like, more than anything.
44:57Oh, my God!
45:05Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
45:08I'm not going to lie.
45:09I've never been so nervous.
45:11You were amazing.
45:13It was so good.
45:14It was so good.
45:15Now the pressure's really on.
45:17One more competition before nationals, regionals.
45:20Yes, keep up the momentum, ladies, right?
45:23Give me your P!
45:24P!
45:25Give me an X!
45:26X!
45:28We're the A-D!
45:29D!
45:30At the end of the day, Alex came and got to see his daughter.
45:34E is C!
45:35C!
45:36You are B!
45:37CrossFit X Dance Company!
45:41But it's just been such an exhausting week getting to this point that I am just tired.
45:46Every time I feel like I'm coming up to the surface and can breathe, something else happens.
45:52Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance!
45:56It's, like, when it rains, it pours.
46:02The solos are going to Audrey and Gina.
46:07Whoever wins will get a solo at Nationals.
46:10It should be the best performance of your life.
46:12She's a bitch.
46:14If she lost confrontation, she will be the next bitch.
46:18Of course, a week that Lily's the lead,
46:21it has to be, like, the most brutal week we've ever had.
46:23This is your opportunity.
46:24This is your time to shine.
46:27Next week, you will be in New York City
46:29for the biggest Nationals of your life.
46:32If you're going to talk about my kid,
46:33why don't you talk about her to me, not Glo?
46:36Oh, my gosh.
46:38Yesterday was a rough day.
46:40Yeah.
46:41Wait, you guys haven't had a conversation about this?
46:43I'm mad at you.
46:45I can't do another week of it.
46:46I can't.
