It was really cool to see you recreate my dances.
I think, Ali, you did Carrie phenomenal.
I think, Lilly, it was incredible.
And I'm really happy.
You guys made me proud.
Aw.
Lilly, I thought your control was great.
Pat yourself on the back, kid.
Well, you can't with your hands tied.
But.
Elliana, I think you looked great.
And I just thought your acting was outstanding.
But I just don't think your dancing is where it was.
We know what you're capable of.
All right.
I think we need to get ready for the group dance.
Shower, brain in your head.
You have to come out and be amazing in this number.
If Abby's not going to boost Elliana up
when she needs to be, then I have
to question if this is the right environment for Elliana.
CONTEST ANNOUNCER: Here we go.
Top junior soloists.
You did everything that you were asked to do.
ELLIANA: It all depends on what the judges like.
So I'm pretty nervous, but I feel like it's out of my hands.
CONTEST ANNOUNCER: The third highest score--
"Carrie," Elliana, Abby Lee.
ELLIANA: I am upset that I didn't win.
I should've been second, or even first.
So I'm a little scared because I'm just imagining
what Ms. Abby is going to say.
CONTEST ANNOUNCER: The second highest score.
"Suspense," Ali from Elite Dance by Damian.
LILLIANA: Elliana was third.
And I watched Elliana.
Elliana was good.
So right now I'm worried that I didn't place at all.
Great.
CONTEST ANNOUNCER: Now our first and our highest score,
with a score of 300 points.
"Straight Escape!"
Lilliana, A-L-D-C!
Whoo!
A perfect 300 does not happen often.
It's insane.
What?
I got first place.
I got a perfect score--
a 300.
And it feels really good to be in that perfect score club.
Feels pretty freaking cool.
ABBY: Lilly, you were the first overall high score for the day
and a perfect score of 300.
That's only been done since I started the Junior Lee
Competition team it's been--
Three times on the team.
So.
Wow.
Whoo!
ABBY: I think this is one of the best solos that
ever competed from the ALDC.
But other than Lilly, this week was a huge disappointment.
Elliana, you were third.
When you were on the team before,
you were threatening kids that were 14 and 15 years old.
You were a huge threat to them.
YOLANDA: And you know what?
It would've been nice if you would
have been invested in my daughter
like you were invested in hers.
Ooh.
Walk, walk.
Now.
ABBY: Lilly beat the crap out of your kid time and time and time
again.
And since then, she's gone downhill.
And you know it.
YOLANDA: Really?
STACEY: You know what?
You're just mad you didn't win today.
YOLANDA: If my daughter had lied--
STACEY: That's that.
You're just mad you didn't win.
You can't handle it.
[interposing voices] - We just need to move on!
STACEY: You can't handle it.
My kid's the best dancer in America.
Your kid got third place.
That's what your kid got.
You guys need to take care of your kids.
And like, the people that came before you built a huge legacy.
I think the world is waiting.
They want it to fail.
There's no reason for it to fail.
Carry the legacy on.
