Join us on Patreon for the After Party and much more!

This week Kelly is recovering from a recent surgery, so we'd thought it be fun in the meantime to release another classic Back to the Barre After Party! This After Party was attached to our episode "Paige Doesn't Have Rabies!" which covered Season 2 Episode 18. Topics include what drinks were really in those cups (or better yet what was in the McDonalds cups), Mardi Gras, and the origin of our Favorite Dance segment!

Quotes

• “You said we need a burner phone. We do! I've watched a lot of Law & Order, I know how that s**t works." (03:34-03:43 | Christi & Kelly)
• “I was like do you know about Candy Apples? You mean that they're delicious!? And I was like no...” (07:46-07:53 | Christi)
• “We need to put out a drinking calendar for the masses. We need to do our public service." (10:01-10:06 | Christi)
• “If there was a martini sitting there at 7:30 in the morning I know it's not gonna be a good day." (19:01-19:08 | Kelly)

"Abby's like, 'I'm just exhausted from dealing with moms, problems, and psychos. I'm thinking you and me are the psychos.'" jokes Kelly, who can't help but take a few strays even when she isn't there anymore!

It's the second half of "Abby-phobic" and the ALDC is coming face to face with Studio Bleu at Imagine National Dance Challenge. Jade and Chloe prep their solos, but Abby and Gia have fallen behind on giving Chloe the rest of her choreography. Ontop of that, Chloe accidentally smacks Maddie, sending Abby into a tizzy and putting Christi on the defensive. Lauree is also mad with Abby as she believes Jade is being set-up to fail and begins to question their involvement on the team.

Studio Bleu proves to be a force to be reckoned with, as it becomes increasingly clear the ALDC might simply be a little too young to stand a chance in the teen division. But the moms can't help but wonder if Abby hadn't chickened out at the possibility of Maddie losing, if their original group dance might have had a shot at winning. But do the girls' dances hold up to 11 years later? Did their talents deserve more recognition?

Quotes

• “I just wanted to point out that Lauree was trying to like, talk s**t on you! Oh yay, luck me." (18:43-18:50 | Christi & Kelly)
• “I'd much rather fight as like a dance teacher and a colleague than as a crazy mom whose always told they don't know anything.” (25:46-25:52 | Christi)
• “I live in fear of what I might post online when I'm out." (42:29-42:33 | Christi)
• “It's really hard to argue with people you don't have a stake in." (48:10-48:13 | Christi)

"It is Season 4 Episode 24, and it's called Abby-phobic. Hhhhmmmm, I'm Abby-phobic." remarks Christi, and considering the raw deal Chloe gets this week that Abby-phobia is going to be out in full force soon enough.

This week the girls are set to attend Imagine National Dance Challenge, a competition primarily set-up to avoid having the ALDC at the standard Star dance Alliance Competitions. This does however mean the ALDC is set to face off against Studio Bleu, Abby's worst nightmare. She panics and throws out the current group dance, convinced they're going to lose no matter what and so as to not waste another competition's sure-fire winning dance. Instead, Abby begins to focus on the pre-teen categories so as to avoid competing with Studio Bleu all-together. But will the team have time to figure out a new routine in time for competition?

Abby is also intent on propping up Maddie whenever possible as the Chandelier coverage has been heating up. In case Maddie needs to fly to LA at a moments notice, Jade from the Select Team is brought in as a temporary team member and Mackenzie is benched to age up the group overall.. Loree, Jade's mom, is worried over Abby's handling of the group routine. Christi is also annoyed that due to Abby's fear of Studio Bleu, Chloe will be forced to compete with Jade in solos despite their age difference.

Quotes

• “I can't believe they gave you such an important piece of information. I know! They obviously didn't know who I was." (03:06-03:14 | Christi & Kelly)
• “That's a good idea. Huh, see I'm smart in some ways. Who the f**k needs books! I know what to do with my alcohol!” (14:16-14:30 | Christi & Kelly)
• “Everyone who asks if these competitions were fake: No they weren't fake, nobody was there. That's why we won all the time!" (29:54-30:00 | Christi)
• “I don't want to be in Studio A. If you gave me a $5,000 bonus to go sit in Studio A I would still be annoyed about it." (48:36-48:43 | Christi)
