HOLLY: I'm conflicted to be honest with you.
I think that after that last week that we had with Abby,
we just all really needed the eight weeks off--
our girls needed eight weeks off--
and kind of regroup and see if coming
back's the answer or not.
Things did not end well at the last competition
two months ago.
We walked out on Abby.
And now we're back in LA because Abby called us.
She wants to talk.
And I have no idea what that woman is going to say.
Is she going to ask us back?
Or did she call us back to give us one final screw you?
I don't know.
ASHLEE ALLEN: Hi, Abby.
Look what the cat dragged in.
I've had some time to think about the mini team,
and about the junior elite competition team,
and about what the moms did to me.
I told the moms to come back to the Abby Lee Dance Company
to discuss my take on it.
I don't think you, as adult women,
should have allowed your children
to go against their teacher.
Abby, you gave them no choice.
You're not-- you weren't--
ABBY LEE MILLER: What do you mean?
I gave them lots of choices!
You haven't been there-- no, you didn't.
You haven't been there for them.
You've turned your back on them.
I don't think I turned my back on anyone.
JILL VERTES: Abby, you sabotaged our kids so they wouldn't win.
You reveled--
No, I didn't.
JILL VERTES: --when we lost.
We don't want to rehash.
Let's not rehash it.
JILL VERTES: Do you want these kids at your studio or not?
I set out more than five years ago
to challenge myself to put a new competition routine
onstage every single week.
I'm not a quitter.
I would like to finish what we started.
I would like to see it through with these kids.
If the girls want to be here and they
are proud to be members of the Abby Lee Dance Company,
then they're welcome.
You want them.
Right.
ASHLEE ALLEN: I mean, let's face it.
We lost without Abby.
We tried and we failed.
Maddie didn't become famous because she
was on a losing team.
Opportunities came from winning.
So our girls need to be on a winning team.
I have a big announcement to make that the girls
should probably hear.
Let me deal with the minis first,
and then I will call for the girls.
Hello!
How are you?
Good.
You good?
Yes?
Look who's coming.
How are you?
YOLANDA WALMSLEY: It's great to be back.
We went through a lot with the junior elites quitting.
I think we have proven to Abby that we are invested in her.
We are her team.
And we are proud to represent the ALDC.
So it's just us here today?
I really don't know what to think.
I'm at a loss because I did train those kids.
And I've been a lot more influential in their lives than
I have in your kids' so far.
And I feel like I need to teach those kids not to be quitters.
So I don't know if my lessons with them are over.
But I have a big announcement to make,
and everyone should hear it.
How do you girls feel about being back?
Like, what's your thoughts?
What's you're feelings?
What about--
--walking in?
I think mostly we're here to see
if Abby realizes that she needs us just as much as we need her.
So hopefully, things turn out better this time.
I know it's not going to be easy at first.
But maybe, just maybe, it'll get a little bit better.
Let me get the girls.
TIFFANIE OLADI: I did not see this coming.
They walked out on Abby.
And just to waltz back in as if nothing happened?
That's just ridiculous.
ABBY LEE MILLER: All right.
So I have a few things to say.
At the end of this week, not everyone in this room
will still be here.
I will be sending some of you home.
I'm going to have one competition team.
Take a moment and think about that because your actions
over the next few hours, over tomorrow's rehearsals,
and certainly during the performance
on the weekend will determine who stays, who goes.
It's the fight of your life if you want it.
JILL VERTES: This is just what we wanted, one team, one team
to get all of Abby's attention.
But it's a little disappointing that this team
is going to be made up of our girls and the minis.
This is our team.
The girls can't let the minis or the mini
moms push them off of it.
