Hey Gasmii,
I apologize in advance because this may be a little shorter than usual (or maybe you like it better when I don’t babble on endlessly – if that’s the case, this is your lucky day!) because I am heading off on a European Vacation (hopefully a Griswold-less one) and I wanted to get this done before I go. (Dance Moms is, of course, always my first priority )
As stated in the mini, this episode was pretty boring and full of rehashes. One thing I noticed after I wrote the mini is that Kelly was on Twitter the other night writing semi-nasty things about Christi.
Christi, to her credit, seemed to be ignoring them and just commenting on the ep. So we’ll have to keep an eye on that little feud and see if it leads to anything big.
Anyhoo, to business. Previously: Christi stormed out, Chloe was suspended, Cathy was crazy, the duet was pulled, yelling ensued, Cathy wacked Jabby with her purse.
The girls and moms arrive. Holly interviews that they missed having Christi and Chloe around and they need them on the team. Kelly still hasn’t spoken to Christi, but Holly did briefly the day before. Kelly asks if Christi mentioned her name at all. What is this, junior high? Maybe they should set up a secret three-way phone convo like in Mean Girls. Kelly says that it’s going to be awkward this week since Christi is not returning her calls or texts.
Christi pulls up to the parking lot and asks Chloe if she’s sure she wants to come back. Chloe does. Christi interviews that she wants to come back like she wants a stiletto in her eyeball but she’ll do it because Chloe wants to dance. Remember, there are no other dance studios in the entire state of Pennsylvania.
She goes up the front desk where Jabby is sitting with NotGia. Jabby throws her an obnoxious wave, but otherwise ignores her. Christi asks if she can speak to Jabby in private, but Jabby just shakes her head.
That IS a banana in my pocket and I am NOT happy to see you
Geez, this is an adult woman who runs a business.
Christi says if Jabby won’t speak to her, she will speak AT Jabby. She apologizes for her behavior, but says Chloe is a member of the team and she is coming back. She adds that she apologized to the competition officials and says Jabby shouldn’t hold her behavior against Chloe. Jabby is not impressed. Christi says she’s going inside because it’s her “job” to be there.
Jabby says Christi is “disgusting” and has some pretty big man balls to come waltzing into the studio like that.
Christi and Chloe enter the dressing room and are greeted with squeals and hugs. Holly says she heard that Christi was talking to Jabby and Christi says no, she was talking AT Jabby. Shrill asks Christi where she’s been and Christi says they’ll talk upstairs. During all of this, Kelly won’t even look at Christi.
I’m really glad you’re back

Christi and Kelly have issues they need resolved because those nasty tweets by Kelly makes me believe something serious happened. We might have two moms with buns in the oven…Christi and Melissa!
Something I noticed…Holly is the only one who actually says “costume” instead of “coshtume”. What a doctor indeed!
Did anyone else notice that in her picture, Christi is not wearing any rings??
Because I am just that bored, I went back through every recap with pictures of Christi’s hands shown and a ring was clearly evident in the summer of 2011 (this only means that that was the only other time that hand was clearly visible).
Who are all these random people in the background when the moms are upstairs? They are distracting me from Christi’s emotional moment.
How do I change my screen name? I seem to have the same name (whoochile) as another poster. Yikes, why are the captcha codes so hard to read? Seriously, am I that old?
even though i still don’t think christi looks obviously pregnant, this episode-long outburst makes me think she could be. god knows my entire first trimester was spent RAGING at my husband over the stupidest shit. i’m only in my early second trimester and i am still not “showing,” but my stomach is definitely puffier, so maybe that’s what’s going on with christi. i don’t know. i’m basing my change of mind on her behavior more than on her figure. as for the beer, eh, she could be one of those people who thinks drinking an occasional drink is okay (which it is considered okay in many countries, and i personally don’t think it’s a problem; i’m just too paranoid to do it myself, but i have many cousins from other countries who had a drink every few months or weeks during their pregnancies, as their countries’ obs consider it okay, and everything always turned out fine. *shrug*). anyway! i do feel like that’s the kind of stupid fight i personally wouldn’t have normally but can see myself having had a few weeks ago thanks to good ol’ hormones.
enjoy your vacation — i’m jealous! i was hoping to go on an anniversary trip to spain in a couple of months but now i’m going to have to skip it because of the baby. hope you have a griswold-less vacation, indeed (not that it wouldn’t make for some amusing stories).
Ok, so I just re-watched the scene of Melissa and Christi at the lounge! I never see Christi actually take a drink of her beverage, just Melissa. The glass was full in the two shots I saw, and then at the end of the scene, BOTH of their glasses were completely empty. Could it be that the producers were staging that shot to make us think Christi was drinking, but they just emptied the glass at some point since we never see her drink it? Too much CSI type crap for me LOL
Good catch CTRParent I was going to ask if we saw her actually drink it.
May be ginger beer/ale too
Not only is the glass empty, it is clean, with no sign it ever held a beverage. Yet more staged crap.
I hope in five years, once this show has faded into the reality TV graveyard, we see an a article about Abby Lee losing her dance studio because no students wanted to be berated by her. One can only hope!
Ok, so i see the tweets SnoopK8 included here, and notice they match up with conclusions people had already drawn here based on the timeline of the \parking lot protest\ coinciding with rumors/tweets/etc of contract disputes from around the same time. Ok, makes sense, but now here is what I wonder…
I don’t believe for a moment that Kelly ever planned to leave *DM*. Leaving *Abby* sure, as long as she would still be on the show.
So… if the parking lot protest was about the contracts, money, etc… Why wasn’t Kelly part of the protest? Am I wrong and she really was leaving and/or considering leaving at the time? Or did she simply decline to participate in the protest (and maybe this could have something to do with the sudden animosity betwenn K and C)? Or was she part of the contract protest like everybody else and they edited her out of protest footage (and/or filmed/refilmed protest footage after the fact, remember how people noticed the replacements being welcomed in the sign in the background of the parking lots scenes)?
Thoughts???
whoochile: I actually like these new advertising based captcha’s because I find them so much *easier* then the distorted text ones…
(Not sure why I put an apostrophe in “captcha’s”. I wouldn’t bother apologizing for such a trivial typo anyway, except certain errant apostrophe-S mistakes get a lot of flack here.)
I miss the days when this show gave us gold, like Mackenzie’s “I just want to sit on the couch and eat chips”. And episodes where the fighting only took up about 15% of the show. They either need another younger permanent team member to contribute funny interviews, or they need to just have a conversation with Mackenzie and let the film roll (without suggesting things for her to say…) so we can get some new, more enjoyable quotes/moments.
I couldn’t even make it through this episode. Once I realized they were down to a story line about grown ass women unfriending each other on Facebook it was like something fell off the shelf.
I’m not sure where they can take this show now. I just wish they’d get the little girls off of it.
Literally laughed outloud at the make it rain comment lol!!!
Random ppl in the background are parents who are not/do not have a child on the show but still dance at ALDC.
I think Nia will be the only child who makes it out of here without being scarred for life. And maybe Brooke because she genuinely acts like she could give two f***s.
Was the thing about Facebook on the new episode? Or did I somehow miss that? I thought the fight between Kelly and Christi was because Kelly didn’t call a stalker-ish number of times while Christi was pouting…
are there no other dance studios that these talented girls could go to?? It would be a cold day in hell before some fat angry pig yelled at my child!
No, their was no actual defriending on facebook (idk if they even have facebooks) it was just a clever title the producers or whoever decides the title thought up to describe their rediculous fight. Kind of like the Bye Bye Baby title for this week
I know everyone saw Lucas from DMM on stage, but did anyone catch his mom in the audience sitting behind Abby and the moms? I’m sure she strategically placed herself there to get some camera time. I couldn’t find any other DMM kids on stage…but I would assume they were there, since the comp was in Ft. Lauderdale?
