ABBY LEE: We have a ton of stuff going on.
Because we have our regular competition plus JUMP.
Now, JUMP is a big dance convention where
these amazing teachers teach master classes,
and my girls have the opportunity
to win scholarships.
That's going to all happen before we
reconvene in Los Angeles to continue
this competition season.
This weekend, we will attend Starbound
National Talent Competition here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
The group routine is deep.
It should be chilling.
[sinister laughter]
Well, you have to have something
of that caliber if you're going against Candy Apple's.
I agree.
Abby's putting a lot of pressure
on the girls this week, because it's
their last competition in their hometown before leaving for LA.
So the girls essentially have to be at two places at one time.
Gives them a lot of pressure.
ABBY: A helicopter.
A search party.
He's out looking.
WOMAN 1: Get closer.
ABBY: He's flying above.
He looks down.
Thinks he might see something.
Goes closer.
No sign of life.
They're dead.
WOMAN 2: Can I just say, I don't know
how Abby is going to manage it.
I mean, there's just so much.
HOLLY: She has to worry about everything else she's doing.
Like, she has to worry about a competition--
WOMAN 2: A studio being built in LA.
HOLLY: Yeah. WOMAN 2: She thinks empire.
It's too much!
Abby told us this was arranged a month ago, that our kids could
come to this competition late.
Nia and JoJo are where they're supposed to be,
and the rest of the team is missing.
So if JUMP goes until 2:30, and you
can't get here until 3:30, how the heck
are they going to do this?
ABBY: The moms don't understand.
My kids had to be at JUMP, period.
It's a big deal.
Kalani says they're on their way.
- OK. - Kathy.
- What? - Did you look at your program?
I didn't see Abby's group listed.
Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
I know. Unless I'm missing it.
That's why I'm asking.
ANNOUNCER: Up next in the group dance category
is "The Patriot."
[applause]
[music playing]
[applause]
I think we're actually sitting around,
waiting for ALDC to show up.
You made it!
Come here So happy to see the rest of the team.
The girls made it, but we have no time.
We can hear the groups category starting.
ANNOUNCER: Next up is the Abby Lee Dance
Company with "No Sign of Life."
ABBY: I'm not playing games.
Give me the makeup now!
Or they're not going anywhere.
Give it to me right now!
ANNOUNCER: ALDC to the stage. - Go.
Go get the makeup.
ANNOUNCER: Last call for the Abby Lee Dance Company.
ALDC, last call before disqualification.
[music playing]
[applause]
Oh, my gosh.
Our group danced fabulous.
They're beautiful.
HOST: All right.
Here we go.
Junior groups.
Second place overall--

[applause]
Woo!
Hello.
You guys ready for the top overall junior group
of the day?
"No Sign of Life," Abby Lee Dance Company!
Stand on up.
Ladies, ladies, ladies.
What studio are you from?
Abby Lee Dance Company!
Woo!
Take a bow, ladies, right there.
[applause]
Your top junior group.
[cheering]
There is a whole party going on.
That's awesome!
Read what it says.
ALL: Hollywood or bust.
ABBY: Woo!
Girls, I gave you a lot to do this weekend.
If you're going to live in Hollywood
and you're going to make it, that's where you have to do.
This is what the ALDC does best.
The girls come together as a team,
and they dance their hearts out.
Now we're moving to LA and taking a trip to Australia.
I can't wait to see what the future
holds for these young ladies.
I think each and every one of them will become a big star.
WOMAN 2: What's our next step?
HOLLY: I guess the next step-- we're
seeing each other in Australia?
Thunder Down Under.
I guess we'll meet you down under.
