come on let's go aliana
you are doing a piece that is
lyrical called am i enough
do you think you're ever gonna be enough
for your mom
all right okay you know who used to
dance to a lot of this
rachel sage stuff who
[Music]
maddie that's right we were lost
so what do you think of ellie solo i
really like it it's just kind of like
the rebound solo
it's been a while since she
has felt that win but i'm not even
mentioning it to her because i don't
want her to focus on that
when she would get on stage before she
always had this confidence where she
would just command the tension on the
stage
she never looked nervous and the past
couple weeks
she looked nervous when she went out
there she didn't have that confidence
she was like
so frazzled ellie has been in a slump
every single dancer can hit a low but
it's up to her to be able to find that
passion again
this week i feel like she's really
setting up eliana she has a really
strong solo
she gave her like the solo the beautiful
maddie type of a dance she she needs
this she really does
she has to bring it she's got to get
that confidence back
or it's going to show on stage she may
not be able to get solos after this
eleanor your biggest problem is you do a
fan kick right at the beginning
and all the judges if they're over there
they're gonna see
a thigh a butt and a hip you have to
cheat it
so that this is your front we should see
the leg
so do it
you're still doing it wrong and why the
attitude come on you're better than that
pay attention
when you step up you should be stepping
to the corner
oh stop it's killing me
go get a drink next who's next ellie
stop oh honey don't start i
feel so defeated no you can't you can't
no no
you have to use this you have to use
this you can't you can't it is beautiful
no she's not she's not here's the thing
you
are
this morning in the car you said she's a
very good teacher i know but i don't
think that anymore
ellie listen she's giving you so
much feedback right now you need to stop
trying my heart
i know you are ellie yolanda if your
kid's crying she's not dancing tomorrow
not dancing come on
you don't do that i heard you all the
way over there crying
that's spoiled rat behavior you're nine
years old
grow up ellie i have to breathe her see
this is the reason
why but sometimes i get so upset with
you
why because i'm trying to help you
annoying
me okay well then how about i walk away
you walk away and then i won't have to
be annoying
not really i tried to help as much as i
could
i think she'll pull it together uh she
doesn't i don't know when she gets
critiques she takes it really personally
yeah and it's almost like she sees it as
an insult you know i just said yolanda
eliana
it just needs to stop see this ass
what's the deal with ellie crying
stop i'm not going to say you are
deplorable you need to look
get out of my face i'm so sick of you

daughter you are disgusting you are
disgusting i am
when the next best thing comes in which
i think is right there against your kid
