Mamans, gérantes d'estrade : spécial compétition

When this life-changing competition kicks off the 12 finalists are tasked with their first live performance in front of judges including, Dance Moms Abby Lee Miller, Robin Antin, founder of the Pussycat Doll s dance troupe and celebrity choreographer, Richard "Richy" Jackson. The dancers are split into trios and assigned routines with a "Hollywood" theme. As the contestants prepare throughout the week, the moms start sizing each other up. Alliances begin to form, but when one mom takes charge during rehearsal, the other moms realize that she could be trouble. Plus, one mother and daughter team reveal just how far they re willing to go to win the competition.

Le thème est "Les monstres de la nuit"; les parents d'Élisabeth divorcent le jour de son anniversaire.

Pour réussir le défi d'Abby cette semaine, les danseurs devront parvenir à se mettre dans la peau de leur personnage; la tension monte entre les mamans Kristie et Yvette.

Les danseurs doivent danser sur le thème de New York.

After winning the right to pick all the dance assignments for the week, one mother takes this week's skill, survival, to heart. Her strategy to sabotage the other dancers by putting them in their weakest areas creates discord amongst the mothers who feel betrayed by her actions. Meanwhile, one dancer struggles with her technique while ignoring her mother's corrections, which threatens to turn their dance into a real disaster. And, one pair must overcome their physical differences in order to become the perfect dancing machines.

Les danseuses préparent leurs chorégraphies sur les danses à travers les décennies.
