- It's day number two.
Where's Abby?
I think she is in her office.
Oh, my god.
I think she's mad.
Brynn, JoJo, and Mackenzie are all competing
head to head this week.
But as of right now, Abby is having
another one of her tantrums.
Abby doesn't want the girls doing hip-hop.
She wants some of them doing hip-hop, but not all of them.
Let Mackenzie do a hip-hop solo, and try to make
it an even playing field.
It makes perfect sense.
So, did you guys get the final word on what's
happening today with solos?
Do you know?
Let me go talk to Abby.
OK.
I just wonder, with how loyal you have been all these years,
why would she not just let Mackenzie do hip-hop?
Because it wasn't her idea.
Hey, what are you doing?
All right.
We need to get started now.
Hi, can I come in?
Brynn was sitting alone in the room.
Oh, OK.
But the moms don't rule the dance studio, you idiot!
They don't!
If every mother walked into every studio
and did as they damn pleased, no one would have a business.
But you don't know anything about that.
You work for someone else.
Where is she going?
Is she walking out the building?
OK, let's go check her out and see if she's doing it.
She should just do her job.
Abby, where are you going?
You trying to sneak out?
The group dance is not done yet.
Don't run me over.
The group dance is not done.
Where are you going?
[honks horn]
She'll run you over.
Be careful.
Come on, Abby.
Come on.
Finish your job.
Let's go.
[phone rings]
Hello.
Cheers.
You know what?
She's done.
Maddie and Mackenzie are leaving after a couple weeks.
She's so checked out.
She's checked out, and this is her legacy right now.
Her legacy is, I'm going to the beach
and you are worried about a dance competition.
You know, at this point, Abby has had a tantrum.
She needs to grow up.
She needs to get over the fact that Maddie
and Mackenzie are leaving.
And she can't decide she's not going to be invested
in any of the dances for the remainder
of the competition season.
She has to get her focus back.
Head comes, hold one, bring it up, two.
Look, then sit into your right hip on four.
Yeah.
So we're going, boo, da, da.
Mackenzie loves hip-hop since we came to LA.
The stakes are really high for her.
She has to beat JoJo and Brynn, or Abby
will never let me live it down.
Abby's all about taking credit,
because if you do anything else here on out, it's not
going to be ALDC [inaudible].
Do you want to be realistic?
Abby is not the one who taught Mackenzie how to hip-hop.
We're going to do the three hip-hop solos first.
So JoJo, "Million Dollar Baby."
OK, here we go.
[MUSIC - JANINE THE MACHINE, "FRIGHT NIGHT"]
(SINGING) Hypnotized.
Hyp-hyp-hyp.
I'm mad as hell.
T-turning red.
Ballin' up my fist.
You make my blood boil, blood boil.
And I can't believe you left me here.
I'm really nervous to compete against
JoJo and Brynn because they're both really good hip-hoppers.
And I want to prove Abby wrong for saying that I should
have never had a hip-hop solo.
OK, Ken.
Just do it right here.
Those are cool shoes.
[MUSIC - PHOTRONIQUE, "I'M SO CONFIDENT"]
(SINGING) Forget about things that you used to know.
(SINGING) Everybody talking like they think they know.
I'm gonna make a fool of myself.
You're not gonna make a fool of yourself.
No, because she's going to yell at me.
So I don't want to make it a big deal.
Everyone is just--
I know.
It's fine.
She needs to grow up.
Kenzie?
It's just me.
OK.
Just one second, just one second.
Mackenzie's under a lot of pressure this week.
She fought for this hip-hop solo, so if it's not amazing,
Abby is not going to be happy.
