With nationals quickly approaching, the moms lash out when Abby decides to hold an open call audition for a new team member; Pressley and Hannah compete for their shot to perform a solo at nationals; Abby receives devastating news from Los Angeles.

Holy crap. She choreographed a number to The Lottery by Shirley Jackson and another one based on Hannibal Lecter.

Now I’ve seen everything.

Oh and one of the solos was to the theme song for Married at First Sight

Clearly Berkleigh can't stay because she had a solo and won so...she's out. And it wasn't even shown.

Thank you ... I never knew if that was really a song or just a soundbite ... since I assume the two shows are not connected, I guess it's just a (sucky) song. And that writer/artist is getting a metric f*ckton of royalties.

I'm guessing this was the 9 PM show.  I'm still out of town.  624 K viewers and a .16 rating.

That must have been a very fixed competition for the group dance to win first. Like all Abby's routines lately, they only danced as a full group for about 10 seconds and the story was incoherent. 

She keeps saying she only has solo dancers but it's her own fault. She needs to choreograph routines where they all dance together for a significant portion of the routine like the OG girls always did. It might not be pretty at first, but it's the only way they'll learn.

That's going to be hard, isn't it? Because there will always be "The Boy", and then the "First Female Lead", and then the rest.

Much more difficult to make a tight group that way.
