So, what all happened with you and Leslie last night?
Leslie has a way of getting in your face.
And Leslie started screaming you're a drunk,
and you didn't take it.
And then, Leslie snapped and wanted to beat the beat [muted]
out of you.
Let's not candy-coat it and let's tell
what really happened.
That this is [muted].
You know it is. OK.
And Leslie's not here to defend herself.
This has nothing to do with you.
No, but I'm pissed off when people
try to tell a different story, when someone's
not here to defend themselves.
And this story, right here, is not how it happened.
You got in her face first.
You can say all you want with words.
But when you directly start it, you better be
able to back up your [muted]!
She called me a drunk!
Control yourself!
All right!
Well, you have spoken!
You know what, I'm not playing this stupid game
that you guys like to play with the manipulation!
You need to settle yourself down.
No, I don't.
Because I hate [muted] liars!
We don't like to curse.
Well, you guys all do, except Holly.
So don't start acting like you're on the high road
that you don't curse.
She's a liar and you guys are backing up the lie.

Kristie Ray is a fighter, just like Leslie is.
And it was a no-brainer that she's on her side.
I was physically assaulted.
You know what--
you're lucky that it was Leslie! You are lucky!
Because if you were anyone else--
Are you threatening me too?
I'm at the point, right now--
I just can't take them anymore.
I've dealt with a lot of women in my life.
And these moms--
I don't know how much more that I can last, maybe a minute.
I'm done.
You guys can play the game.
I don't have to.
I'm not jeopardizing my daughter's career for [muted]..
I'm done.
Oh my god.
Thank god Kristie is leaving.
Because clearly, she's crazy.
Hello.
Abby, I'm leaving.
[boom]
You are?
KRISTIE: Because I can't deal with the lies anymore.
So I decided, I'm going to go.
Right before Nationals?
I am very upset.
Asia is a shoo-in to win that mini division at Nationals.
Asia is, probably, going to be heartbroken, because she
wants to be in the group.
But, from the incident last night to this morning, I just--
What incident last night?
[dramatic music playing]
There is a confrontation between Leslie and Christie.
I'm not just going to sit here and play the game with them.
I'd rather just go, and do what we need to do, and take her.
Well, I'm heartbroken.
And you're telling me that you're taking her away?
Because we had a good run, and she's leaving undefeated.
[dramatic music playing]
Well, I feel bad.
Are you going to tell her? Or am I going to tell her?
We can both go in there.
[dramatic music playing]
Girls, I have an announcement to make.
It is with great sadness--
Asia has to cut her trip short, and not participate
in our National finals.
Saying goodbye to a superstar!
You're going to make me cry.
How could two mothers, representing the "Abby Lee
Dance Company" go out in the middle of Bourbon Street
and get into a scuffle with each other!
Well, well, well.
We had a rough morning, already.
You've succeeded in driving, yet another dancer,
away from the "Abby Lee Dance Company."
We were out.
It was nothing to do with you, or the "Abby Lee
Dance Company," or the kids.
You are all here because the "Abby Lee Dance Company"
is attending a National finals.
To say the least, it was unsportsmanlike behavior.
Christi, your out.
Chloe is gone for this week.
Leslie, you have to take Payton home.
You're gone.
[dramatic music playing]
Hot damn.
Here it is the day before Nationals,
and we're down three kids.
I don't understand why Abby couldn't
have just left the kids in the dance, and made the moms leave.
We are back to square one, to the drawing board.
OK.
So we need everybody's brains together.
We can't dwell on the past.
We need to move forward.
Things happen for a reason.
I would rather take a loss at the National competition,
than to let these two women stay here one more minute.
