I've been saying for weeks that nobody on this team
is safe, and I don't think you believe me.
So I've decided the only way to light
a fire under your lazy butts is to say goodbye to one
member of this team.
[music playing]
ABBY LEE MILLER: What was going on on that stage?
That is not the Lilly that I know, not the Lilly
that I've worked with for years--
missing a side aerial, and now she's
messed up the group routine.
LILLY: I fell on my side aerial because if I
were to do it, then I would have kicked Pressley in the face.
After the three weeks we've done
this, I think everyone knows that this is
the week that wasn't the best.
And we all messed up, so she can't--
But what happens
--pick on one of us.
We all didn't do everything.
I didn't do the side aerial.
Yes, I did.
No, she'd rather let me just kick someone else.
Stop, please.
[applause]
ANNOUNCER: We are ready for the awards ceremony.
Moving now into our top groups.
ABBY LEE MILLER: I'm not sure about The Healer winning.
I mean, Lilly screwed up the dance big.
The only way this group has a shot in hell of winning
is if the judges were looking at Brady.
ANNOUNCER: And your highest scoring group
for the entire day--
The Healer, from Abby Lee Dance Company.
[applause and cheers]
Congratulations, dancers.
Take a bow on three.
One, two, three, everybody take a bow.
Excellent job.
Give it up for them one more time, ladies and gentlemen.
ABBY LEE MILLER: Well, it's a good thing
that I changed the bad side side aerial on Brady
to go all the way over to stage left so that nobody
saw Lilly over on stage right.
So we should all thank Brady.
Well, congratulations.
You guys should be thrilled that that group won, because there
was a lot of mistakes.
Why does somebody who can do a side aerial blindfolded
in her sleep miss it?
I was either going to injure someone else
or injure myself because I was too close to Pressley.
And if I were to do to my side aerial,
I would have kicked her face.
And then if I went on the diagonal,
I would have kicked the curtain.
So I decided not to hurt anyone else.
STACEY: She thought she ruined the group dance,
and she was shook being called jealous of her teammate.
Yeah.
She doesn't like that.
Lilly, I didn't call you jealous.
I didn't--
Well, Abby did, because you guys kept talking about it,
so then Abby thought that I was jealous, and I wasn't.
And it got really annoying.
OK, what does this have to do with the side
aerial and the spacing?
It should have absolutely nothing,
because if you're going to be a pro,
you could sit next to somebody doing your makeup that hates
your guts, and you still have to go out on that stage
and do the job that people are paying for a ticket to see.
I don't want crying kids.
You are a lucky little girl to be here, and all of you are.
So this crap has to stop.
If it's going to rattle you that much, something that I
said or I did or blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
blah, either A, toughen up, B, let it go in one ear
and out the other, or C, you're not cut out for this.
Kids, out of the room right now.
Go on out with Lilly.
Go out.
Go out the door.
Go on.
Out the door.
We'll get that later.
We'll get you in a sec.
ABBY LEE MILLER: People thrive on somebody else being upset
and somebody else having their feelings hurt.
You all know that.
But the carrying on and the crying and the chaos--
when I hear all of this crap going on,
that's when I have to rethink the casting,
and I don't know if everybody really belongs on this team.
These mothers are such fools.
They claim and claim and claim that they are not jealous
of Brady, and in the meantime, their jealousy is eating
everybody in this room alive.
I don't know what you have an issue with me about,
and you are on my case.
I didn't even speak to you today,
and you're all over my case, and you purposely do
it when Abby comes in the room.
You know what Abby does.
She takes it out on your kid.
Hey, I didn't think she would get upset about it
[interposing voices] - Why?
You threw us under the bus yesterday,
then they all did 50 push ups.
Why didn't you think that would happen today?
And why just me?
What about her, her, her, her?
Everyone's nodding.
You try to make me look bad.
You get my kid yelled at.
It's your fault. Deal with it.
You're jealous.
It's frickin' ridiculous.
So ridiculous.
ABBY LEE MILLER: Well, that's her prerogative.
She can do that if she wants.
I don't want to be here anymore.
And everyone's yelling at me and telling me
that I'm jealous of everyone--
OK, then let's leave.
