Well, I have something to share to you guys.
- Which I'm saying-- - Will be visiting us this week.
Wait, who is that?
Oh--
Who is that?
Erin Babbs.
She's bringing her studio this weekend.
Oh.
We can't wait to go up against the ALDC again this weekend.
We're ready to kick some Pittsburgh booty.
Watch out, Abby.
This competition is extremely important.
We're going back up against a studio that beat us once here,
and that is never going to happen again.
This week we are traveling to Riverside, California
to attend World Class Talent Experience.
All right, group dance.
The group routine is called The Rose Garden.
It's contemporary.
It's a bit dark.
We do that well.
We do that well, yeah.
You know every rose has its thorns.
Like, she's telling the story, and there's
this nuance of negativity.
And it's eerie and dark.
Whenever a judge is watching you, you need to be amazing.
The Rose Garden is the name of the group routine this week.
It's very precise, it's very sharp.
Because the thorn is sharp.
You hit it, you get pricked.
You come up against this routine, you get pricked.
Maddie! Keep your back straight.
If I'm going to attract the caliber of students
that I want when I opened in LA, then
we have to beat the other dance studio.
OK.
That looks funny on you.
So it's called The Rose Garden,
and the big, long, giant nails are the thorns.
These nails are insane.
Hopefully someone doesn't lose an eye on this dance.
OK. All right.
Let's see what we have.

[phone ringing]
Wait, wait, wait. Hello?
[cheering]
Now that I've locked down a space in Los Angeles,
the girls have to win.
This is my reputation on the line,
so it's 110% every moment.
Please welcome, from Abby Lee Dance Company, The Rose Garden.
[applause]
If my girls don't give this routine everything they've got,
we could be in trouble.
(SINGING) What the devil said when
he turned on your [inaudible].
[applause]
My girls nailed it.
Take that.
Please welcome the Murrieta Dance Project,
Passing Through Time.
[applause]
(SINGING) When it rains, it pours.
The DP were amazing.
I think we're in trouble.
Last but not least, we have our highest
scoring small group category in the advanced division.
Third overall-- act number 79, Passing Through Time.
Third place?
Who's kicking whose booty now?
And our first overall in the junior small group category--
act number 76, The Rose Garden.
[applause]
And your studio?
Abby Lee Dance Company!
[cheering]
This is probably one of the biggest
wins this team has ever had.
I'm so excited for them.
