"Okay, so has everyone got it?" Michelle asked, looking around Studio A after teaching the choreo.
She heard almost everyone muttering, 'yes' and saw most people nodding, so she nodded and said, "Great, you guys have about an hour and a half to go through the choreo by yourselves, so feel free to use any rehearsal rooms including Studio A to go through it! Good luck!"

As Richelle walked into The Music Room to practice the choreography, she narrowed her eyes at Noah talking to one of the new people.
Walking up to them, she heard him say, "All you have to do is at least act confident and try your best, this is your chance to get on A Troupe at The Next Step, don't let it go to waste, okay?"
Richelle gaped. This was so not okay!
"Noah!" Richelle whisper-yelled, grabbing his arm and dragging him to a corner on the other side of the room.
"What'd you do that for?" Noah asked in confusion.
"What do you think you're doing?! Why are you helping out these newbies?" Richelle asked, fuming.
"I was just imparting some wisdom onto them. They want this just as much as we do Ritchie." Noah explained.
Richelle huffed. "Well, I didn't see any of them wanting to be a part of our team as we were preparing for Regionals, or even before that! They just want to be here because we won!"
"So? They might not have heard of us before we won, that's not their fault!" Noah yelled.
"I just can't believe you'd do this, Noah." Richelle said before storming off to Studio B.
"Do what?" Noah asked the air, exasperated.

"I just need to call my mum and let her know that I've made it to the choreography round, I'll be right back." Melanie explained, and April nodded in understanding as Melanie ran off.
"Jordan!" April said as she walked up to her ex boyfriend, "What do you think of Michelle's choreo, pretty intense stuff, huh?"
"Yeah," Jordan chuckled as he stretched and marked the choreo, "but that's what's so good, at least it'll bring out either the best or the worst in people."
"True." April agreed, and when she saw her best friend glancing at them out of the corner of her eye, she turned to her and waved her over, and Allison's eyes immediately widened.
"Allison! Come over here so we can all practice together!" April said, causing both Allison and Jordan to internally cringe.
"Uh, no, that- that's fine, I'll just stay here." Allison protested.
