are you coming to play no i'm not working anymore so um oh golly abby decides not only is she not
coming out of her back room to do pyramid and work with the girls she's not even getting dressed for
the day this ongoing incident that has nothing to do with the routine we go find her we find
her in her pajamas no brawn curlers in her hair she's a hot mess is she dressed or you
know what you looked like at about 7 10 this morning that's what she looks like right now
she's lost her passion she's not inspired to do this work anymore
she doesn't want to lead the girls they have to dance because this show has to go on i mean why
our kids deserve better than this they deserve to go somewhere where they can learn and
not be distracted by all abby's craziness abby was not coming out i have a right in this country not
to work for you you know what do you want to go to debbie allen studio that's the other option
okay let's look she's not interested in doing anything related to dance and as a matter of
fact we might as well take our girls and leave and go to the debbie on dance academy luckily we get
melissa and gianna the two wild cards on board that we thought would never ever come with us
so we all took a vote and decided to rehearse at debbie allen's we made sure it was okay with
gianna because she is the choreographer and she said sure that's fine we need a place to rehearse
how would you guys feel if we went to a different studio rude awakening for all of us we thought
things were bad with abby with everything going on in her life and her personal crises
but we never imagined that she hit all-time low that she doesn't even want our kids here
training anymore this is our studio like when we go to competition our back is going
to say abby lee and we're not again because she doesn't want us here did she say that she did
our group dance this week is entitled well oil machine and thank god abby has already given
gianna direction and choreography so that she can teach the girls until abby decides to come out
and be with her team so where are we going this weekend we're going to phoenix maddie's supposed
to be here right now but she's filming her final scene for the movie so she's going to meet us
in phoenix to learn the group dance and be back on the team for the rest of the season i am very
much prepared to follow up with debbie allen and to see if she'll let us use her studio for sure
the aldc right now is not the right place for our girls and right now our girls need a place
to rehearse and to work we are doing the costumes right so she didn't give you guys the costumes
no what if we call kyra and see what she has there at her studio does she have dance for her
hi mom i actually have some friends call her and see if she has stuff that we can use hi i'm happy
that you guys are here and we have a lot of gratitude for you letting us be here today oh
no i'm happy i'm happy to be able to fill in while you're waiting for miss abby let me see what y'all
got come on i'm just in awe to be in the presence of debbie allen she's taking the time out of her
schedule to be with our girls and their own dance teacher couldn't do that that's nice good job
wow okay so you've been working how long since when yesterday yesterday okay you know it's very
very evident that you work together as a group and i guess it's about deciding what is the narrative
this is why dancers make the best actors because we don't have words
we have our bodies and our faces to tell the audience and how we move what are we talking about
it's the point they weren't going to get them what costumes
do the girls have costumes or not costumes because i collected costumes in case
there's no costume issue i had the costume i bought the costumes i actually i went to
a big giant hardware store that i hate i think i'm banned from in the state of florida anyway
um i went to this big store and i got copper wire i got copper fixtures so a lot of ribbon is
pay attention just i'm paying attention it's close to bow you should be like your ears should went
i just do you have the costumes here or not
i have this if needed i have seven of them where'd you get those i wrangled them up today
i don't know when we're back well that's all we have we already bought it let's just wear those
we have them i already bought the other stuff i'm not getting stuck but you lost it or someone ate
it like i don't really know let's just wear these you know why the thing is debbie allen did not do
she did not talk about money and buying things and tossing that in our faces every time oh she
doesn't know you doesn't make a difference you tell that to anyone who walks through the door
what's your friend prices are you don't know people's names and you tell them all sorts of
things about late to money except for all these i think it's very reflective of some of your issues
is that you're fixated on money and that somehow defines your happiness and you're
unhappy kendall where are the earrings where's your costume kyra came through with the costumes
they look great they work perfectly for the number so despite no support from abby we
do have costumes stop back up it's the shorts are all different and you can it's blatantly
obvious that they're all different abby that's all we have i think we have to make it work
put the black leotard on and then put the crop top over the leotard at this point
abby is picking apart the costumes because she is so mad that we took matters into our own hands
wait a minute wait a minute what if we put that burgundy skirt on
underneath the suspenders but over the shorts look in here and see if they're shorts
yeah take the leotard off put the new shorts on i don't care how they fit just put them on
honestly the costumes are what five points of the dance i mean while we focus on the
dance itself rather than the costume i pride myself on making my dancers look good on stage
well you know what abby this could have been done days ago there's no need for this okay well
if you don't feel your child can dance and handle all this pressure
it's okay we can re-block it nope that's not my point my point is you are not here to do your
job this week we all know it i'm just voicing it and i think the girls want to dance and
now they're getting sidetracked because you're focused on those costumes instead of the dance
whoa you are making this whole costume thing my fault it is your fault you didn't bring costumes
you didn't show off to do your job you brought costumes that have booty shorts that you can see
every line in they had black on they looked great you're messing them up and flustering
them no one else is you are because you don't do your job entry number 75 well-oiled machine
um
a is zone
these kids they've been put through the ringer this week but the well-oiled machine worked
went on stage did its job and it drove off overall this has been a really tough week for
our girls they've showed up they've worked their butts off which is more than i can say about abby
so no matter what happens today i'm very proud of them the first place goes to enter number 75
well old machines i'm so happy the girls won first place we're in phoenix this is a hard competition
they won with gianna's help and the mom's support not with abby's help abby we did it without you
