00:01Audrey, what do you want to do?
00:04I want to go back.
00:05I think it's a mistake.
00:06She's an asset to the team.
00:08By what costs?
00:09I really think that you're a star.
00:12You could be the future of this whole studio.
00:15She is 10 years old and breaking down every second.
00:19The solos are going to Audrey and Gina.
00:22Whoever wins will get a solo at Nationals.
00:25If she lost confrontation, she will be the dad fish.
00:28Your number one soloist, the Lionfish.
00:34I'm back once again, baby.
00:36Next week, we'll be in New York City.
00:39For the biggest Nationals of your entire lives,
00:42we will be doing a collaboration with Boop the Musical.
00:47One of you guys in front of me will be playing Eddie Boop.
00:51Don't you want to get your ninth win going into Nationals?
00:54Taking home that first place trophy,
00:56baby in the fire!
00:59I am not okay.
01:00It's really clear that this is not the right place for Tammy right now.
01:03And I'm not doing this!
01:05Tammy!
01:06As much as I want Audrey on this scene forever,
01:09I have to let her go.
01:10Only in New York.
01:25Can you rise to the top?
01:30Only in New York.
01:32Only in New York.
01:35Yay!
01:39Look at the view.
01:40This has been a tough year for everyone.
01:45Studio Blue closing down, it took its toll on the kids,
01:48it took its toll on me.
01:49I didn't know where this team would end up,
01:52and I spent so much time just trying to pick up the pieces.
01:56Thank God Kaylee's been here.
01:58Gonna run!
01:59Go!
02:00Up, up, down, Lily!
02:01But we don't always see eye to eye.
02:03I'm sorry you feel that way.
02:04I don't know what type of...
02:05That sounds so genuine, Mom.
02:06When you have that...
02:07Then I can't win!
02:08Then I can't win!
02:09Listen!
02:10But here we are.
02:11With nine wins in a row, an undefeated season...
02:14Broadway Texas company!
02:16And now we're standing in a Broadway studio,
02:19preparing for the biggest Nationals of my career.
02:22But instead of feeling excited and inspired like we should,
02:25we have this dark cloud hanging over us
02:27because Audrey and Tammy quit the team for good.
02:30If I'm honest, I am terrified of going into a Nationals
02:34this important when our team is so fractured.
02:38That's new.
02:39I'm trying to lighten the mood.
02:41What mood?
02:42The mood of your repercussions of everything I've been telling you
02:46is going to happen for the last however many weeks.
02:48What does that mean?
02:49You should not have allowed Tammy and Audrey to come back.
02:51Look what happened.
02:52Audrey wants to be here.
02:54This is all Tammy.
02:56But look at what she's doing.
02:58Look at what her mom is doing.
02:59Look at what is happening because you let her back.
03:01Look what her mom is doing.
03:02The state of our team could not be worse right now.
03:05Once again, it's because of Tammy.
03:07I have to make the decision that I think is best for everyone.
03:12If you were thinking about everybody,
03:13you would not have allowed her to come back.
03:15If I were thinking about...
03:16No, if you were thinking about the whole team and everybody else except for Audrey.
03:20I am not going to sit here and yell or listen to you yell.
03:23You know you're not going to sit and listen to me because I'm right and you don't want to hear that you're wrong.
03:26No, that's not true.
03:27That is exactly true.
03:28I don't think it's true.
03:29I don't think it's true.
03:30You are destroying your own team.
03:32You are destroying your own studio right now.
03:34You're one.
03:35Yep.
03:36We're done.
03:37Yeah.
03:38It's really frustrating that anytime I go to my mom with my opinion, she just shuts it down.
03:44She only wants positive opinions and nothing that challenges her point of view.
03:49So, I feel like we need to start by addressing what happened last weekend.
03:55What happened on Saturday was unimaginable.
03:59Tammy and Audrey left the team.
04:01This was Tammy's decision.
04:03I kind of felt like they were going to do this again because Miss Tammy didn't seem very happy last week.
04:08And I felt honestly really, really, really bad for her.
04:11But I do think it was the best that she left the team.
04:14We are not going to dwell on this.
04:16You girls have won with and without Audrey.
04:20Now, all of that being said, look around you.
04:23Look where you are right now.
04:25We're in New York City!
04:28You are on Broadway.
04:30This is where stars are made.
04:33David Foster, one of the biggest names in the entire music industry,
04:38is literally gifting us one of his songs from his newest Broadway musical, Boop.
04:44One of you is going to be Betty Boop, and you are going to go out there and blow him away.
04:50That's what I'm waiting for.
04:51And if that's not incentive enough, I have another surprise for you all.
04:56Five of the top agents in New York City will be at your performance.
05:01Whoo!
05:02Yes!
05:03That's amazing!
05:05Being signed to an agent who sees that you have something is everything.
05:11I want to get an agent that will get me to Broadway one day.
05:14On to the last pyramid of the season.
05:20On the bottom...
05:25Audrey.
05:27Audrey's not here.
05:28We will do it without her.
05:29Next on the bottom...
05:31Smiley, I saw you work really hard over the last few weeks, and I want you to keep working hard so we get you off this bottom row once and for all.
05:43Understood?
05:44Yes.
05:45Next on the bottom row.
05:46Ashlyn.
05:47I wish I had seen more out of you this season, but I do actually believe that your technique has improved a lot this season.
05:58And last on the bottom row.
06:03Lily.
06:04Lily, you had your breakout performance last weekend.
06:06I want to see a lot more of those next season.
06:09On the second row...
06:13Bellatrix.
06:14You are very clearly one of the most technical dancers on this scene.
06:19Now that you've come out of the shadows, stay there.
06:24Next.
06:26Gina.
06:27Gina, you've proven that you can be a leader and a winning soloist.
06:31And that's all I've ever wanted from you.
06:33Keep going.
06:36And on the top of the pyramid...
06:39Fia!
06:40Where's Layla?
06:42Woohoo!
06:43You have that it factor, and I have no doubt we will all see your name in lights one day.
06:57Okay, where's Layla?
06:58What's the matter?
07:00I'm so confused, because I can't think of anything Layla's done to not be on the pyramid.
07:06What the heck is going on?
07:09Why do you think you're not up there?
07:10I thought this season was a lot better than I did last season.
07:15You think you did?
07:16Yeah.
07:17You've been my student since you were four years old.
07:20And from the moment I met you, I thought I was looking at a miniature Kaylee Ware.
07:26You are so talented.
07:28You are so gifted.
07:29I didn't always see you use that to your full potential.
07:32But this season, I've seen you work harder to not only grasp the styles, but to also perform and not hide who you are.
07:44Because you are not a shrinking violet, Layla.
07:46I mean, I know I haven't always been easy on you, but that's because I see so much of myself in you.
07:51And I don't want you to look back and regret anything like I might have looked back and regret things.
07:56You are going to be better than I could ever be.
07:59And you have to believe that.
08:01Layla, you may not be on the pyramid, but I have something even better for you than being on top.
08:06Layla Bell, you will be Betty Boop.
08:10I love being the lead role, especially for nationals.
08:19This is my first lead, like, by myself.
08:21And it's going to be Betty Boop in front of the agents.
08:26This is the best lead ever.
08:28You were worried.
08:30This is a huge break for her.
08:32This is the biggest opportunity of her life.
08:36Now she has to deliver.
08:37In addition to the group, we will have two solos.
08:42We already know that the first solo is going to Gina.
08:47Congratulations on earning your solo.
08:49You did a great job last competition.
08:52She has the solo international.
08:54She beat Audrey last week.
08:56She put herself every single week.
08:59The second solo was an extremely difficult decision.
09:02It came down to who exceeded my expectations.
09:08And that dancer is...
09:11Mia.
09:15We've got her two shiny new toys, Gina and Mia, getting the two solo spots.
09:21And Ting Ting and Jing, we know about them.
09:23They don't get along.
09:24So this might not be the united front I expected going into nationals week, but here we are.
09:29Girls, let's go out and bring home another national title and make history with this undefeated season.
09:36Yes!
09:37Let's do this!
09:39Moms, there's a viewing area set up for you in another room.
09:42You're dismissed.
09:43We'll start group rehearsal in a few.
09:46We're still going to be friends all the way.
09:47Wee!
09:48All right, guys, in case you didn't know, the story of Boop the Musical is that Betty Boop comes from a black and white town.
10:06But then she travels to New York City and she finds friends, she finds love, she finds a whole world of color.
10:18Layla, I want you to know how she moves, how she talks.
10:20This is the biggest performance of your life for all of you.
10:23Yeah.
10:24Exactly.
10:25That's as national as they all have to bring it.
10:27All right, spread out.
10:28Okay, so we go one and two and three and four and five, six, seven and eight.
10:36Man, you guys, I just can't believe the girls have the opportunity to do such an amazing performance with such amazing music.
10:44Like one of the biggest Broadway shows.
10:46And it's hot right now.
10:47Yeah, right now.
10:48You're on stage, let's go.
10:50You're on a Broadway stage, there's casting agents, there's directors, there's all kinds of people.
10:55Oh, Glow.
10:57Moms, here are the agents that will be at the performance Saturday.
11:01Please research them.
11:02Rebel Creative Group, Artist Collective Entertainment, CESD Talent Agency, and DDO Agency.
11:08Those agents are no joke.
11:09That gives the girls motivation.
11:11Yes, because Layla has to lead doesn't mean that they have to be like, okay, I'm just gonna yes, do whatever.
11:15No, you can still be such an important part of the dance, even if you're not the lead.
11:19This could be a life-changing break for all of us.
11:22Just think about the exposures that they're getting this weekend.
11:25Exactly.
11:26We're steps from Broadway, y'all.
11:27This is so much more than just the normal competition we're used to.
11:30I want to like it, but I don't.
11:33You guys couldn't possibly hit those poses any weaker.
11:36Every step in this dance should be bigger than life, and it's not.
11:39The girls have a lot to live up to this week.
11:42They have the opportunity to change the trajectory of their lives.
11:46One mistake could make all the difference from being on TV, movies, Broadway, or being back home in Ashburn, twiddling their thumbs and thinking about what could have been.
11:58They are literally dancing for their futures.
12:01Put in the work this week.
12:03It's important, more than ever.
12:05No! Get to the middle!
12:13Gina, what are you doing?
12:15It seems like you don't care about it.
12:17If you can't win, that's it.
12:19Win, now come back.
12:20Like what do you think that's doing to your kid and you put her in that headspace?
12:23I do a lot for her!
12:25I'm a corner to the right now!
12:27I do a lot of fun!
12:28Oh my God.
12:29This is Mia's first national solo.
12:31That's a lot of pressure for a 10 year old.
12:33I have to compete tomorrow.
12:35Yeah, so?
12:36It's okay.
12:37Leah, don't do it!
12:38If ever there was a time to show the world that Project X is a force to be reckoned with, is right now.
13:03This is where it will come out.
13:05You guys see it?
13:06We're taking a break from rehearsal to give the girls a little inspiration.
13:11Since they're dancing to a song from Boop the Musical, we're taking them to see the show tonight.
13:15But before we see the show, we're going to go meet the cast.
13:17I think it's going to be so much fun.
13:19This is where everybody wants to be.
13:22Every dancer dreams of being in New York City, being on Broadway.
13:26This is the place where it can all happen for you.
13:29It's always been a dream to watch a Broadway show, and I'm happy that I...
13:32Have you never seen a Broadway show?
13:33No, I've never seen a Broadway show.
13:34Are you serious?
13:35I've never seen a Broadway show in person.
13:36Me either.
13:37We're in the studio all day.
13:38We're rehearsing.
13:39Okay.
13:40Whatever.
13:41I know.
13:42Y'all need to get out more.
13:43Guys, get your phones ready!
13:44Get your phones ready!
13:45I don't have a phone!
13:46Okay, well, you can get videos from them.
13:49Guys, look who it is!
13:50Can I get pictures?
13:51Yes!
13:52Of course!
13:54Oh, Layla, ask if there's any tips for you.
13:58Those are some really good tips for the show.
14:00Don't be afraid to dig into the cartoon elements.
14:03Be yourself and have fun.
14:05That's how you do it.
14:06That's the key.
14:07We can't wait to see the show.
14:08Thank you so much.
14:09This trip to New York is a real eye-opener.
14:12I hope I get to talk to Jasmine and see what she has to tell me about Betty Boop because,
14:17after all, I will be doing her part.
14:19Woo!
14:20Woo!
14:21Woo!
14:22Woo!
14:23Woo!
14:24Woo!
14:25Am I performing a dance to you as a song?
14:27Yes.
14:28Oh, my gosh, yes!
14:29I'm Betty Boop.
14:30This is Betty.
14:31Yes, ma'am!
14:32Okay!
14:33What are all converting questions?
14:35I would say it's a cartoon.
14:36It's joyous.
14:37It's full of life.
14:38You have the skills.
14:39You have the talent.
14:40Just put them out there.
14:41Betty's message is always, you are capable of amazing things.
14:44Yeah.
14:45You remember that, okay?
14:46Can I get a picture with you?
14:47Of course you may.
14:48I'm a little bit more ready to be Betty.
14:50That was the most exciting thing that has ever happened.
14:53Such a good experience.
14:54I love New York!
14:55I love New York!
14:56Over to Broadway, and it gets you done.
15:01Oh, New York love's just begun!
15:06All right, listen up, listen up, listen up!
15:17The two of you are doing solos this week.
15:19Gina, you're doing a lyrical.
15:21It's called Love Over Fear.
15:23You're gonna have to find a range of emotions, okay?
15:27You should be able to show your beautiful lyrical technique in all of your training, okay?
15:31Mia, you're doing a contemporary, okay?
15:33Yours is called Lightning in a Bottle.
15:35We're gonna have some cool flashing light effects when you're up on stage.
15:38You're gonna be able to show your lines and all of your flexibility, all the things you're really good at, right?
15:43I would love first and second, but I want a national title winning soloist.
15:48We're gonna start with you, Gina, all right?
15:51Earlier this season, Mia and Gina competed solos against each other, and Mia won.
15:57And last season, Gina didn't place with her solo at nationals, and she's getting another opportunity
16:02because she has had such a big season.
16:05But if she doesn't do well this year, I don't see myself giving Gina another solo at nationals ever again.
16:13Don't rush.
16:18Up, still, step, step, go! Up, down, up!
16:23Watch that leg! Step, step!
16:26Up!
16:27It's a little unfair that Gina gets another lyrical.
16:30This is her third lyrical.
16:32She has a very good advantage.
16:33100%.
16:34100%.
16:35Yeah.
16:36Why do you think that is easy?
16:38For Gina, it's easy because she is a ballet dancer, and Mia can't do that.
16:44Mia can.
16:45Mia cannot.
16:47There's obvious baggage between Jing and Ting Ting.
16:50I think they've tried to sweep it under the rug a little bit.
16:53They used to both be at the same dance studio, but then they had a big falling out.
16:57And now that Mia and Gina are going against each other at nationals, it's bringing up all this bad blood between them.
17:04Do it right.
17:07Ugh.
17:08Lost that.
17:09Go!
17:10Reach!
17:11Gina, you're all over the place right now.
17:15And split!
17:16You're early!
17:18Oh, my God.
17:20Looks like Glo's still making the same corrections over and over, though.
17:23Gina, here's the thing.
17:26You're good, and you can do all of this amazingly.
17:30You're just choosing not to.
17:32Yeah.
17:35I'm very happy.
17:36I just told you, because I saw you didn't try your best.
17:40You have to pay 100% attention.
17:42She's saying she's not trying the best.
17:44She needs to put 100% effort in there.
17:47It seems like you don't care about it.
17:50Are you care about the competition and the national competition?
17:53Are you care about that?
17:55I think I'm more care than you.
17:57I suffer a lot to keep Gina to dance.
18:02My whole salary is going to the dance studio.
18:05I'm working for, like, the night shift, and I don't get enough time for sleeping.
18:11So most of the time, I'm sleeping in my car.
18:15There's a lot of money and time.
18:17That's why she has to take seriously and try her best to win.
18:21I don't want you lose to 10 years old.
18:24If you can't win, that's it.
18:27We're not coming back for next season.
18:31I can be like the tiger mom, but I know Gina can handle that pressure.
18:36I help her to get successful, so I'm very mean.
18:40I know, but it's okay.
18:42It's okay.
18:43I give her a lot of pressure.
18:45It's just like, if you don't win the national, you're not coming back.
18:54You told her that?
18:55I told her that.
18:56That, to me, is too extreme.
18:58Sometimes you push her too hard.
19:00You all give your daughter the pressure.
19:02We all pushed our kids, but you are gangster with it.
19:05It's a different level.
19:09Mia, you ready?
19:10Yeah.
19:12This is Mia's first national solo with Project X, and she's undefeated all season.
19:21So that's a lot of pressure for a 10-year-old.
19:26Knees tight.
19:27Knees tight.
19:28Five, six, seven, eight.
19:29Reach.
19:30What?
19:31You're just...
19:33What are you doing?
19:34Stop playing with your fingers.
19:35Take a deep breath.
19:36You're fine.
19:37I'm really nervous that Gina has a lyrical, and I have to compete against her
19:41because Gina's, like, lyrical is Gina's strength, and she beat Audrey with it.
19:45Kind of freaking me out.
19:48You're gonna get points deducted if you cry on stage.
19:50So stop.
19:51My mom definitely treats Mia differently than the rest of the girls when she does have a breakdown, and it's not Mia's fault because she hasn't been told that it's wrong.
20:00Our job as a teacher is to teach them, not to coddle them.
20:03From my standpoint, I love them so much that I'm not gonna accept less than their best because I want that for them.
20:08You're stressed, and you're not focusing on what you're doing.
20:11How is that gonna help if you just stand there and cry?
20:13It's not, but that means I'm gonna mess up both days.
20:16Mia, having a meltdown isn't gonna help matters at all.
20:19I'm scared because I don't wanna mess up.
20:21If I think about it, it's just the same thing as doing another solo at a different competition.
20:27It's just different because it's nationals.
20:29But it's just, it's just a word.
20:32It's just a word.
20:33Nationals is just a word.
20:34Just, you know?
20:36Just a word.
20:37It's not a Mia solo week or lead without a meltdown.
20:41I know you don't wanna mess up, but you are.
20:43So we have to accept that and move on.
20:45You're about to give up.
20:46You're about to give up.
20:47You're about to.
20:48That's what I'm scared of.
20:49Okay, so shh.
20:50So stop.
20:51Stop.
20:52Shh.
20:53No, it's my fault.
20:54I know you messed us up.
20:55You're not.
20:57I mean, she is going up against Gina.
20:59She feels the pressure.
21:00Gina has a pressure, too.
21:02Yeah, but she got the pressure from a competitor, not from her mother.
21:06Yeah.
21:07And you reach and you mouth.
21:10Get some water, Mia.
21:11Get water.
21:12Get water.
21:13You did it.
21:14You kept going.
21:15You kept going.
21:16Get water.
21:17Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen.
21:18Okay, we don't, Mia, we don't have time for it.
21:21We don't have time.
21:22Shh.
21:23Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
21:24Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe.
21:26Okay.
21:27I'm going in.
21:28You need to take a deep breath.
21:29Look at my feet.
21:30Oh, my God.
21:31Come on!
21:32Layla, you're late.
21:33I'm not doing good enough.
21:34Don't let it break you, girl.
21:35Get it together.
21:36Gina doesn't care, but I care.
21:37She's got to get her solo taken away.
21:38Don't come to me about my relationship with Maggie.
21:39Every mom here has to take from you quite often.
21:43Everybody shut the hell up.
21:44I don't know if I want to do this again.
21:46Ching Ching, why don't you take her out for a minute?
21:49You got to listen to me.
21:50You need to go with your mom and take it away.
21:52Take it away.
21:53Get it together.
21:54Gina doesn't care, but I care.
21:55Ching, she's got to get her solo taken away.
21:56Don't come to me about my relationship with Maggie.
21:57Every mom here has to take from you quite often.
22:00Everybody shut the hell up.
22:02I don't know if I want to do this again.
22:05She's so hard on herself.
22:06I know she'll do it.
22:07She always does it.
22:08She pulls it out.
22:09I know, but I feel like you know that it takes some time.
22:12Maybe for nationals, you can't wait.
22:14Like, you can't trust that they're going to get there.
22:15She'll get there.
22:16But it needs to be people that are there, like, immediately.
22:18If she stops, take the solo away.
22:19If she's not going to behave like she needs to,
22:21don't give her more opportunities.
22:22I know.
22:23I know.
22:24I know.
22:25I know.
22:26I know.
22:27I know.
22:28I know.
22:29I know.
22:30I know.
22:31I know.
22:32I know.
22:33I know.
22:34I know.
22:35I know.
22:36I know you're looking for more opportunities.
22:37I get that she's talented, but someone has to learn.
22:38She's 10 years old.
22:39You don't even attempt.
22:40Kayleigh?
22:41You just let her and you...
22:42Kayleigh?
22:43Have you seen...
22:44Have you seen...
22:45Okay.
22:46Let me give you a hug.
22:47But you did the same thing with Audrey when she was young,
22:48and look how that turned out.
22:49I'm not going to punish a child because they're struggling.
22:53She needs some support.
22:54That's what she needs.
22:55She needs somebody to be there for her.
22:57I have to compete tomorrow.
22:59Yeah, so, so.
23:01Deep breaths.
23:02Breathe.
23:03I need you to pull it together and don't do this again
23:06so you have more time.
23:08Do you understand?
23:10I've never seen her this nervous before a solo.
23:14So that was eye-opening to me, even.
23:16Mm-hmm.
23:18Mia, go.
23:24Tight, fast feet.
23:25Turn.
23:28Squeeze your nut.
23:29Tight, tight, tight, tight.
23:31She is very scared of Gina's solo.
23:36So this is when I come in, I need to de-pressure that.
23:38I don't believe in you.
23:40I think the pressure from you is not me thinking about it.
23:44That's what you do, Jane.
23:46I feel for Gina.
23:47I feel like you're too hard on her sometimes.
23:49Are you Gina?
23:50I'm not Gina, but I grow up having a mom like you.
23:54My mom was a tiger mom, a typical Asian tiger mom.
23:58And this is why I am the mother I am today,
24:00because I don't treat my daughter that way, right?
24:03Because I don't agree with that parenting style.
24:05I see her constantly crying and telling you, don't talk to me.
24:09I don't want to talk to you.
24:11She feels too much pressure when you're there.
24:13Why does she cry when you go to backstage?
24:15You have to win this week.
24:17She's talking to me like that.
24:22The pressure that you give Gina is so high.
24:25You believe that it works, but at what cost?
24:29I only want to do the things like help my kids chasing her dream
24:34and make her dream come true.
24:36Jane, is it Gina's dream or your dream?
24:39Because you say I a lot.
24:41That is not my dream.
24:43From what we see, that's not how she is.
24:46Tintin, shut up.
24:47I'm very close with Gina.
24:49We're a very healthy relationship.
24:52You're really upset about this.
24:53We're just trying to help you here.
24:55I don't need your help.
24:56Why you think you're helping me?
24:57She is fine.
24:59I see her cry a lot.
25:00Don't bring it up, Tintin.
25:01That is the last time I just told you.
25:05They don't know my relationship with my daughter,
25:08and then they just see her to judge me.
25:10It's not right.
25:12I love Gina so much.
25:13That's why I push her.
25:15And she needs me to give her the pressure.
25:20Mail, mail, mail, mail.
25:21Three, four, five, six, go!
25:25I don't believe anything you're doing.
25:28Amber Lake, travel.
25:30Layla, you're late.
25:32Already, they're hot.
25:33That beginning part is a hot mess.
25:34You guys have to take this downstage, OK?
25:36Doesn't mean you leap downstage.
25:38You leap straight across.
25:39You have to start up here.
25:40What?
25:40No.
25:41They can't do a diagonal straddle leap, Kaylee.
25:44They're all literally leaping like this.
25:47OK, whatever.
25:49Who wants my help, won't let me help.
25:50For her to still be discounting everything I have to say
25:53is really frustrating because I feel
25:56like I've picked up a lot of slack when she's
25:59distracted by Audrey and Tammy.
26:01I've been the one there to work with the kids.
26:03So knowing that she brought me here to help her, but then
26:06only wants my help when it's convenient to her,
26:08makes me question why she wanted me here in the first place.
26:11Layla, you need to know the words that she talks.
26:16Say, now I'm blushing.
26:17Now I'm blushing.
26:19Oh.
26:20Oh.
26:21Oh.
26:22Oh.
26:23No, that's not like it's way more cutesy.
26:26OK, now you just look like you're not trying,
26:28like you don't care.
26:29Mia.
26:31Here we go.
26:32Leslie, you might have to intervene.
26:34Yeah, I'm sure she said to take her part.
26:36Go like this.
26:37Oh.
26:37Do you see her eyes?
26:40I don't feel like you really are trying.
26:43You would chill with her for a minute and help her out,
26:45because I can't.
26:46It's OK.
26:47It's OK, it's OK.
26:48Don't open your eyes, like, too much.
26:50Just open them like that.
26:52No, no, no, that's too much.
26:54Don't like that.
26:55I don't know if I can do that.
26:56Oops.
26:57Oops.
27:00OK.
27:00I just want to have a few words with her.
27:05Oh, my love.
27:07It's OK.
27:08I'm not doing good.
27:10It's not like I'm not doing good enough.
27:13But I also feel like it.
27:17Baby, we talk about this.
27:19Yes, I know.
27:20You are.
27:20Look at me.
27:22Don't let it break you, girl.
27:23You can do this.
27:25Get it together.
27:26It's not helping.
27:27Listen, we're all rooting for Layla.
27:29We want her to do well.
27:31We need her to do well.
27:32We want her to do well.
27:32But this is Layla.
27:34That's the thing about this.
27:35She has the talent.
27:38Like, she has the gift.
27:40It's just getting it out there is so hard.
27:45OK.
27:46Let me show you something.
27:47No, don't show me anything.
27:48I'm going to show you.
27:48No, no, no.
27:49I'm going to show you.
27:49Look, look.
27:50When you're doing look, just raise your eyebrows and smile.
27:53Mom, stop.
27:54Mom.
27:54Eyebrows.
27:55Stop.
27:56OK.
27:56Can you get it together?
27:57Yes.
27:58Let me see.
27:58You smile, and you give me Betty Boop look.
28:02Eyebrows and smile.
28:04No, take a deep breath.
28:07Mom, stop.
28:09Layla, we need to run the dance.
28:11She's good.
28:12Come on.
28:13Get it together.
28:14Hey, guys, you ready?
28:16She's just feeling the pressure, which is to be expected.
28:19But I'm not going to let my daughter break down.
28:21We didn't come this far to just squander
28:23an opportunity like this.
28:25This is why we're here.
28:26So I'm not going to let this pass us.
28:28I'm not.
28:30All right.
28:33Yes.
28:33Yes, girl.
28:39Hey.
28:41Mia, where's your hand?
28:43Lily, you don't look happy.
28:44You look, like, confused.
28:46Ashley, you don't look happy either.
28:47Smile.
28:48I personally feel like the girls have been overconfident
28:51this season because they've won every competition so far.
28:54And I think this week, for the first time ever,
28:56the pressure is really starting to kick in.
28:58Yeah.
28:58I mean, casting directors, agents, choreographers
29:01will all be watching.
29:03And these girls know what that means.
29:05They look up to Maddie Ziegler and JoJo Siwa,
29:08and they know that if they get the performance of their lives,
29:12their dreams could come true.
29:18Gina, you have no idea what you're doing.
29:21Not a clue.
29:23Go!
29:24Get to the middle.
29:27Gina, what are you doing?
29:30Whoa, whoa, whoa.
29:31Gina, you have not one clue.
29:32Not a clue.
29:33A single step in this dance.
29:34Not one clue.
29:35Nope.
29:35I don't know when you're going to figure it out
29:36because you go on stage in 24 hours,
29:39but you're going to figure it out because this
29:40is your last rehearsal.
29:42Jing, she's about to get her solo taken away
29:44because she doesn't know this group.
29:45And that is not fair to any of these kids in here.
29:48Katie, I tried my best to help her,
29:51but she doesn't care.
29:53I can't help.
29:54OK, so make her practice it.
29:55Keep her in her room and make her go over her dance.
29:58Katie.
29:59No, that's on you.
30:00I understand your frustration with her,
30:02and I'm glad that you understand why we're
30:03frustrated with her, too, but you're
30:05responsible for what she does on her time off.
30:07I'm very upset because Gina doesn't care, but I care.
30:11If I don't give her the pressure, she can't win.
30:13That's why she needed me here.
30:16Gina already told her if she doesn't win national,
30:18she's not coming back to the elite team.
30:19I will not come back for next season.
30:20Seriously?
30:21Yeah, she did.
30:22Yep.
30:23I tried to give her the pressure.
30:24I want she can feel that.
30:26I want she can pay attention, but she doesn't want it.
30:30How can I do for her?
30:32I do a lot for her!
30:34I'm recording me right now!
30:36You guys go.
30:37Bye.
30:37Go out.
30:38Go out.
30:38Give me too much pressure!
30:40OK, OK.
30:41Go, go, go, go, go, go, Tina, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
30:46You just pushed me.
30:47I'm trying to help you.
30:49All we're trying to tell you is OK.
30:51Tina, I already don't want talking with you.
30:53You're worse.
30:54It hurt me.
30:55And the moms didn't want Tammy back because of the drama?
31:15Today's the day.
31:16This is Nationals in the heart of the Big Apple.
31:19There's a lot going on.
31:21We have Gina and Mia that are doing solos, and for the group number, we have been gifted
31:26this incredible song from Boop the Musical, and on top of that, we have five of the top
31:32agencies in New York City in the house watching these girls.
31:35This could be life-changing for them.
31:37But let's be honest, it's been a rough couple of weeks.
31:46I've lost my star student, I've lost one of my best friends, and yesterday I thought we
31:52were losing Jing and Gina.
31:53Listen up, I need all moms and solo dancers to come with me to the green room, but for
31:58now I need to focus on Mia and Gina.
32:01One of them could walk away with a national title, and one of them definitely will not.
32:05Do you need help, Gina?
32:12Uh-uh.
32:13No?
32:14Okay.
32:15Have you guys been able to talk after what happened yesterday?
32:20The air feels a little tense.
32:23I know you had a lot of emotions, so if you want to talk about it, or not, you have to
32:29say something, Jing.
32:31Jing, we're not trying to, like, pressure you into anything.
32:34Just honestly, like, even just for team camaraderie, like, we all want to have a good time.
32:38It's our last competition of the season.
32:40You all judge about me and Gina.
32:43I only care about the place.
32:45I don't care about my kids' feeling.
32:47That's all you guys talk to me.
32:48All I'm saying is, when Mia's sad, she comes to me for comfort, and Gina doesn't do that.
32:53Gina.
32:54When you have the hard time, you come to your mom, or you come to somebody else?
32:59Yeah.
33:00Okay.
33:01How you can judge my parenting to my kids?
33:04That's totally making me crazy!
33:06Oh!
33:07Oh!
33:08Oh!
33:09Can we take the kids out?
33:10Gina.
33:11Please, take the kids out.
33:12Gina, go, baby.
33:13Can I just say something to Gina?
33:14You don't need to talk to my kids.
33:16Stop talking with her.
33:17Gina, I just don't want this to impact.
33:18I just don't want this to impact.
33:19Just, just, just cover your ears.
33:22Nobody love you over it than your mom.
33:24Go.
33:25I'm just, like, frustrated with Ting Ting right now, because I don't think she really
33:28gets me.
33:29My mom has to be hard on me, because I know what to do sometimes, but then I don't do it.
33:34I'm really thankful that I have her to do that, and I just don't think the other mom
33:37see that.
33:38Wait, I'll save the effort you're putting in.
33:41What is happening?
33:42She won't receive anything we're trying to tell her.
33:45Don't come to me and talk about my relationship with my kids.
33:49Gina, breathe.
33:50Breathe.
33:51Just take a deep breath.
33:52Everybody, let her be, and I'm not saying that...
33:56God has stricken us down.
33:57I'm not saying that you guys have done it, but whatever she's feeling, her feelings are
34:02valid.
34:03If she doesn't win, she's leaving.
34:04If we don't have the conversation now...
34:05I'm not letting Gina leave.
34:06You guys is not trying to help me.
34:09You are trying to give me pressure.
34:11No, we're not pressure.
34:12What?
34:13Everybody!
34:14Nobody shut the hell up!
34:19Feels like we're getting blamed for everything.
34:21These seven grown-ass women are going to sabotage Mia and Gina and everything they have worked
34:28for.
34:29Okay, this is it, Gina.
34:30Okay?
34:31They have sacrificed everything, and they deserve the opportunity to step out on that stage
34:36and show the world what they're made of.
34:42Okay, Mia.
34:43Here we go.
34:44Up, up.
34:45Careful.
34:46I know it's slippery.
34:47Be here.
34:48Careful.
34:49It's okay.
34:50It's okay.
34:51No, no, no, no, no.
34:52Restart.
34:53Okay, we're gonna restart.
34:54Mia, don't do it.
34:55Mia, we're gonna start over.
34:56Mia.
34:57Shh.
34:58Mia, stop.
34:59We're gonna start over.
35:00Shh.
35:01Okay, take a deep breath.
35:02Wait, listen to me.
35:04You have time to maybe run this once, so don't get yourself worked up.
35:07It's fine.
35:08Every single time Mia messes up and asks to stop the music, my mom stops it and lets her
35:12start over.
35:13If she messes up on stage, she's gonna stop.
35:14Okay.
35:15And that's your fault because you should be training her to not do it.
35:17Yes, ma'am.
35:18Yes, ma'am.
35:19Sorry.
35:20This is it.
35:21Gina, you have to emote.
35:22Mia, you have to trust yourself.
35:23Don't freak out.
35:24One of you could be national champion.
35:26That's huge.
35:27I love you both so much.
35:29And guess what?
35:30I know that you both can do this.
35:33I have no doubt in the world.
35:34Really?
35:35Yeah, really.
35:38I've been thinking about how this is like a lot of pressure on me to win because my
35:59mom said that if I didn't, then I wouldn't be on the team anymore.
36:02I think I just have to emote and do what I have to do and be the best of myself.
36:06Number 52.
36:07Love Over Fear.
36:08Let's go!
36:09Let's go!
36:10Let's go!
36:11Let's go!
36:12Let's go!
36:13Let's go!
36:14Let's go!
36:15Woo!
36:16Woo!
36:17Let's go!
36:18Woo!
36:19Woo!
36:20Woo!
36:21If you mess up real bad take the lesson let the past be the past
36:28Today's a brand new day
36:35If you don't think it is it's really all and how you're looking at it
36:42You gotta push on through the play
36:51It took me ages and ages to see
36:58The voice inside is talking to me
37:21I'm not afraid
37:23Love for the fear
37:38Gina's beautiful on stage, but she actually improved a couple things
37:42She didn't do the choreography the way it was set. I think the pressure of nationals got in her head
37:49How are you doing right now really nervous I got freaked out in the green room and I forgot it
37:55I cannot let that happen on stage. I'm so nervous. Can you please stop talking to me? I can't thank you
38:02Contestant number 53 lightning in a bottle

48:28I
48:30It's the start of something big for her.
48:33Can't you, can't you, can't you!
48:35Are we standing ovation for people that weren't our moms?
48:42Dancers, are you ready?
48:47All right, here we go.
48:49Junior Solo 9-12 Top 10 here at Ignite Nationals.
48:54In 10th place, we're gonna line it up, number 46, I Will Get There.
49:02I think the pressure definitely got to Gina and Mia today.
49:06Well, I think that Jing's ultimatum messed Gina up,
49:08and I think that Ting Ting and you are too soft with Mia,
49:12and it made her completely forget her solo.
49:148th place, number 52, Love Over Fear, Gina, Project X, 295.2.
49:23I got 8th place, and my mom gave me this ultimatum
49:27that if I didn't win, then I'd have to leave this team.
49:30I really love the girls, I really love Ms. Glow,
49:32and I don't want to say goodbye because we're like family.
49:35I'm just gonna miss all the memories that we've made together
49:39over these years.
49:43In 4th place...
49:45Number 53, Lightning in a bottle, Mia, Project X, 297.8.
49:56I beat Gina, but 4th is the worst that I've ever gotten in her life.
50:03Are y'all ready for your junior small group?
50:08What really matters at nationals is that overall category.
50:15Which means the best out of all the winners in every age division.
50:18But in order to qualify for that, we first have to win junior small groups.
50:22Third place...
50:26Entry 101, Empire State of Mind, Thrive Body.
50:31Second place...
50:36Entry 129, We'll Be Fine, Exquisite House of Dance.
50:40I'm really nervous that we're not gonna win,
50:42because if we lose and I'm the lead,
50:45I'm not gonna be Ms. Glow's special project,
50:47I'm gonna be Ms. Glow's special letdown.
50:51And in 1st place...
50:54Entry 135, We'll Be Fine, Exquisite House.
51:03Everybody give it up for your top 10 junior small group.
51:07Now that we won 1st place in junior small groups,
51:09that qualifies us for the overall national title.
51:12Everything that we've worked so hard for all season,
51:15has been building up to this moment.
51:18And now...
51:20Everybody, please give me a drumroll!
51:26Your 1st place national champions are...
51:30Entry 135, Bootho.
51:32I'm beyond proud.
51:33This is our first season as Project X,
51:34and we didn't just show up,
51:35we dominated.
51:38Undefeated!
51:40I'm beyond proud.
51:41This is our first season as Project X,
51:42and we didn't just show up, we dominated.
51:44Undefeated!
51:46Undefeated!
51:48I will never forget this moment, I will never forget this dance,
51:50I will never forget this team, I will never forget this season.
51:54So many people have worked so hard to help get you here, but you guys have worked hardest of all.
51:59Layla, I'm so proud of you.
52:00I'm really glad that I had this big opportunity, and I didn't let anybody down, I think.
52:05Layla led those girls to a national title.
52:07Seeing a student get an opportunity to shine like this, that's what teaching dance is all about.
52:13Gina, you and Mia both placed in the top of the top of the top of the top of the top of the top of the top of the top of the top.
52:17And I will never forget this dance, I will never forget this team, I will never forget this season.
52:20So many people have worked so hard to help get you here, but you guys have worked hardest of all.
52:25Layla, I'm so proud of you.
52:26I'm really glad that I had this big opportunity, and I didn't let anybody down, I think.
52:30Layla led those girls to a national title.
52:32You and Mia both placed in the top ten with solos that were definitely not your best.
52:38A lot of it had to do with some events that happened this morning,
52:41and I think that there was a lot of tension in the room.
52:43However, we should be celebrating.
52:46We won! We're undefeated!
52:49We won our group one!
52:51Let's go!
52:56I love you guys, I'm proud of you.
52:57You guys can go.
52:59Overall, it's been a hell of a day.
53:02We're national champions, but there are still some major unresolved issues with Jing and the moms.
53:09And after last week with Tammy, I want to settle this now so it doesn't build into something that is unsolvable.
53:15This was some rollercoaster, like what we just did.
53:19But how do we fix the situation that's been happening with Jing?
53:24Right now we need to move forward and figure out what we're going to do.
53:26I agree we need to move forward.
53:28Jing, I know that you gave Gina an ultimatum, and she didn't win, so where's your head now?
53:34We don't want them to leave. We really don't.
53:37If you say something is not true, that is a hurt my feeling.
53:42Jing, it's about Gina. It's not about you.
53:47Every mom here has to take from you quite often, but it's not about them.
53:52They're here for their kids, Jing.
53:54Gina went out and got eighth place today after all the work and time we've put into her because of you all week.
54:00You telling her, I'm going to quit the team if you don't win.
54:04What do you think that's doing to your kid, and you put her in that headspace?
54:07Can we maybe just agree that we all need a break?
54:11We all need time to think.
54:13Let Gina go. Don't speak. I'm talking.
54:16Don't let Gina get on that bus thinking you're pulling her out.
54:21Oh, you don't understand.
54:23Jing, are you going to quit, yes or no?
54:25Because, Mom, you said we need to move forward, so let's move forward.
54:27Jing, are you quitting, yes or no?
54:28I quit.
54:29Okay, then get out.
54:30No, get out.
54:31We need to move forward with our team that we're going to have in the future.
54:35So get out.
54:36Jing, don't do this.
54:37No, if you're going to quit, get out.
54:39No, no, no, no, no.
54:41Jing, please don't do that.
54:42Jing, don't leave.
54:43I think that you were a better mom than Tammy.
54:46Okay, Lee, don't ever judge a parent when you don't have children.
54:51Stop that.
54:52I might sound like I'm being harsh right now, but in my opinion, I'm making up for the damage that my mom is allowing to happen.
54:59If she wants Project X to be successful long-term, she's going to have to learn how to put her foot down.
55:05This behavior cannot keep happening.
55:07Everybody go.
55:08Everybody go.
55:09All of you leave.
55:10Jing, we'll talk about this later.
55:13I know my kid, and I know there's something much more going on than this whole thing with Jing.
55:19There's something bothering her, and I need to figure out what it is.
55:23What is wrong with you?
55:24I feel like I'm reliving last week all over again.
55:27Jing, can you please come here so we can say something?
55:31We just talk.
55:32Say for our children.
55:33Please.
55:34Can we just talk?
55:35Kaylee, when someone has had enough, you back off.
55:39You let it be.
55:41All we said is you're too harsh on Gina.
55:44Why was that so hard for you?
55:45It's not.
55:46Why was that so hard for you?
55:47It's not.
55:48It's not so hard for me.
55:49You, it's not.
55:50You exploded.
55:51It's okay.
55:52Whatever you do.
55:53How do you look at someone who's literally on the verge of a breakdown and just continue
56:00to yell at them?
56:02It's been a hard season for me.
56:04I thought my mom brought me here to help her, but she's kind of just dismissed all of
56:09my opinions.
56:10Yes, she is my mom.
56:11I want to help her.
56:12But if she's just going to continue to shut me down, then why am I going to keep putting
56:16my own life on pause for that?
56:18I wish you will listen to me more.
56:22I wish you would listen to me more all season.
56:25It was really hard.
56:27Every time I say something, you have told me to just stop talking.
56:31Like, what did you bring me here for if not to help you?
56:35Ten wins in a row.
56:37You did not have ten wins in a row last season.
56:41I'm not saying it's only me.
56:44I came home from my ballet career, got it taken away from me, and I came straight into this.
56:52I love doing this for the kids and I love being here for the kids, but I still have not taken
56:57time to decide what I want to do for myself.
57:01And because I have some things that I feel like I missed out on or things that I wish maybe
57:08was different.
57:09Like, that doesn't take away from everything that you have done for me.
57:13Like, I know that I get frustrated at times, but I don't know what I would do if you weren't my mom.
57:21But for the first time in my life, I want to be the one to make a decision on what I choose to do.
57:33I don't know if I want to do this again.
57:39You didn't say if you want me here or not.
57:41Of course I want you back next season.
57:43It would probably drive each other crazy again.
57:45But I wouldn't want anybody else other than you to be the one to drive me crazy.
57:49Of course, there's a small part of me that really hoped she would be happy,
57:53that we would build this family business and carry on my legacy.
57:58But now that I see that she's unhappy, I see the resentment building in her.
58:03And I don't want my daughter to resent me, ever.
58:07As a mother, all you want is to see your kid happy.
58:11Kaylee needs to live her life, and whatever that is, it's all up to her now.
58:16And I have to be okay with that.
58:18Support with whatever you want to do. You know that. I always have.
58:27I don't know what the future holds for Project X.
58:29We lost our star dancer, Audrey. We might be losing Gina.
58:33And now Kaylee might not be coming back to coach.
58:37I'm terrified of what next season might look like, because more than anything, I'm scared to do it alone.
58:49You nod.
58:50So good be победit.
58:51And here's your host today, the UK's local TV.
58:54And here's what you do.
58:56If you are ready for Project X, if you have ever had hosted us in their town, you'll need to go and find out theÃch ring.
