1.4 Stealing the Show

"Let's talk about Starbound Competition. Can we have a round of applause?" Abby starts off and and all the girls clap

"Okay, so Brooke, you blew them away. The people sitting around me were in awe when you did your handstand twist. But why all the drama with the hip? Hmm? If you are seriously injured, you don't need to go to your mother and get everybody worked up. You come to me, and that needs to be clear, yes?" Abby lectures Brooke

"I want to talk about this week's competition." Abby says and turns the board around

Brooke
Cassie Maddie Chloe
Nia Paige Mackenzie Vivi-Anne

"Do you see there's somebody new on top? Yes. Brooke, you are here because of your performance. You worked through an injury. You did what you had to do. You were a team player." Abby praises. "You are getting a solo this weekend."

"All right, Chloe, Maddie, Cassie, you are also getting solos this weekend." Abby tells the three girls and Cassie smiles as wide as she could. She loves to do solos, they're her favorite. Plus the trios she gets to do with Chloe and Paige

"The bottom row, what am I supposed to do with you four? You need to step it up. You need to get your butts back in to class and start working on your technique. And you know what? Since we're in Pittsburgh this weekend, I'm going to give every single one of you of you a solo." Abby tells them and everyone claps, but Cathy. She knows that Vivi will have to do the bumblebee solo now

"Moms, it's going to be a busy week. I expect them to be amazing. Do you understand? Yes? Sit up straight. Ladies, let's go" Abby says and all the girls stand up

- Five Days To Competition -

"Make it bigger. You're movements are too small" Abby corrects Cassie as she runs through her Believe solo

| This week, Cassie is doing two solos, one of them is her routine Believe that she did a couple weeks ago. Then the other is a new tap routine. | Abby Lee Miller

| I love solos. I think I'm the best at them too because I get to dance alone | Cassie Kostopoulos

"Okay, great job, babe." Abby claps when Cassie finishes. Cassie then goes to the den to put her two shoes on before going to studio C where Matt Saffron is

- Four Days To Competition -

"Hey, Abby" Stephanie greets as she and Cassie walk through the doors to the studio

"Hey, ladies" Abby smiles and hugs them

The two then make their way to the dancers den where everyone else is

"Okay, take off your street clothes and start stretching" Stephanie tells her daughter who nods. Cassie takes off her purple tank top and black skirt, which shows off her black booty shorts and pink top

"Cass, come on in here and we can start" Abby calls for the girl. She grabs her tap shoes and follows Abby into studio A

- The Dancers Den -

Stephanie looks through the to see her daughter dancing, before she leaves the room to go to the front desk, where she works sometimes

Meanwhile, Melissa, Christi and Kelly are still in the dancers den. Now, Christi and Kelly know about Cassie's two solos because Stephanie told them. They really don't have a problem with it because neither of the girls solos are going up against their daughters solo. But Cassie is going up against Mackenzie with her lyrical solo and Maddie with her tap solo, so Melissa is very pissed
