S1, E5: 9-year-old Emily Tye is a big fish in a little pond -- a national winner who's outgrown her local Central Florida pageants -- but is she ready for some tough North Carolina competition? Emily, her mother Debbie & Grandma Sue travel to Charlotte to compete with glitz pageant veterans like Jordan Adcox who, at 9 years old, has already won over 100 crowns. Pageant mom Debbie is sticking with the tried and true – Emily's won before with her cuckoo clock outfit, but she's hoping that the judges won't think her costume's time has passed. Meanwhile, pageant mom Jeanie is worried that Jordan is risking the crown by trying to roller skate. She practices her new routine deep into the night, hoping to wow the judges. Two pageant pros will face off in Charlotte, but only one of them will become Little Miss Perfect!
