Abby reveals big news to her young dance girls, that they will be working all year to get to the big national competition.
The girls wear revealing costumes and create a scandal, as Abby's attempt to turn up the heat shocks the audience with an inappropriate dance number.
Abby's dancers must win this competition to stay in the fight to get to nationals, but chaos ensues when one of the girls threatens to quit.
Abby assigns the girls one solo dance for the next competition, but assigns two solos to her star dancer Maddie, which gives her an advantage over the others.
It's Abby's annual Dance Showcase, an exhibition in which she shows off her accomplished dancers. This year the stakes are higher than ever, with a Broadway casting director visiting to scout for new talent.
On the way to a competition, Christi learns that her grandmother has been admitted to hospital. She must choose between visiting the hospital and the competition.
