Make it or Break it Series Finale Recap


Wendy is explaining that she ordered the medicine for a cold she had but once she learned that the substance was banned she threw it away. Lauren accuses her of putting them in the smoothies she kept feeding to Kaylie. Wendy grows a backbone and says that she likes Kaylie and if she were trying to drug anyone it would be Lauren. Lauren gets in her face but is told that without proof her claims are baseless. Lauren thinks for a minute and notices lip gloss on the packaging and realizes that the drugs were kept in the lip gloss case. She goes to grab Wendy’s bag which she won’t let go of but finally gives up and lets Coach search it. They find the container with the drugs and Wendy looks like she has shit her pants.


Poor Emily.

Coach addresses the crowd while the girls all line up eager to hear who has made the Olympic team. He says that all the girls stood out but only 5 were at the top and they will bring honor to the United States at the Olympics. Jordan, Payson, Kaylie, Colleen and Lauren are called in order as they have all made it on the Olympic team. They stand together on the platform with a huge American flag draped behind them as they hold their hands up together. Lauren looks over at the spot where they placed Otis and sees Jake but no Otis so she runs after him. Rigo meets Mark and they all hug one another. Austin and Kaylie get back together or are at least speaking with each other. #teamusa

So many emotions were going on in this episode but I feel that at least we were given somewhat of a decent closing to the series. I would have liked maybe a blurb about whatever happened to Emily or what happens at the Olympics. Also does ABC Family not care about rape because there were no PSAs about being sexually abused but when Kaylie had an eating disorder that shit went on for like 10 episodes. Eat too many cookies and it’s a crime but get bad touched by an adult and it’s okay…ABC Family you make no sense.

Anyway did you guys feel like that was a worthy ending to the series? Are you going to miss Make it or Break it? Thanks for taking this trip with me but since our time here has come to an end I invite you over to my new recaps for Grimm.

    SG, Nice way to end the series!! I wish they would have gone maybe one or two more episodes…It would have been nice to see a couple more episodes where it was just the girls, and not the gymnastics part.

    Yay for Lauren finally coming around. Sure it took all of the series, but I am glad she finally grew up!

    I also liked all the leo’s in the epi except for the one that they put on Ayla/Payson. That full on red did the girl no justice! I like the shiny material, not that felt looking stuff.

    Yay for Kellie Parker :)

    What the hell am I going to watch next week at 9pm? Sure as shit won’t be the Bachelorette!

    I would have loved just a little blurb over the shots of each of the girls about how they did at the Olympics. Pretty decent send off to the show nonetheless. Thanks for the recaps this season!!!

    I felt like they tied everything up fairly nicely considering the amount they needed to cover in one episode. I agree with Casey—it would have been nice to get some sort of epilogue/text about the Olympics outcome. I actually care more about what they go on to do with the rest of their lives, though.

    I got so excited when Kelly Parker showed up and was standing with the girls supporting them!

    For once, YES, LAUREN!! I never thought I would say that. Better late than never I guess.

    Great job with these recaps, SG! Absolutely fantastic! So sad that it is over. They had a good run, though.

    I was pleasantly surprised how they finished everything up nicely. It was funny how the 5th girl was someone no one ever heard of before. Also I remember the Atlanta Olympics they had 7 girls biecause it was the Magnificent 7. So wonder why only 5?

    After Lauren wins her gold medal she has a great career in detective work! I loved how she figured it out!! You can’t sneak a sneak.

    @April

    The FIG (international gymnastic committee) lowered the gymnastic team participants from 7 to 6. But now this year they are lowering it to 5. This way you need more all arounders and not so many specialists. That’s why the Chinese beat us last time. All the bar workers they had were amazing and the bars could rack up the highest score of all the events. Lol it’s called code-whoring. Can’t do that so much anymore.

    My daughter was a gymnast for 9 years before she switched to dance, so I know alot of useless gymnastics info lol.

    Kaylie has a brother. I forget his name but he was in like 2 episodes in the first season. I think they hinted something could happened between him and Emily but I can’t remember.

    and of course I just noticed I only read the first page. I was wondering why it seemed so short :-P

    I tried to ignore it when these supposedly elite athletes drank crap at constant parties, stayed out late, went on road trips ignoring their diet, ran around in high heels, and basically violated every rule of athlete discipline. But the last straw was Payson putting on strappy heels and dancing two days before Olympic tryouts. What? Her feet would be a mess of blisters! Arggghhh! Reality much?

    @SG You did an extra awesome job on this recap! Which I extra appreciated. Because I didn’t like the show itself as much as most people did.

    Maybe I was just sad because it was the last episode. And in denial. But it looked like to me the writers already had 1 foot out the door. I know there was lots to tie up. But I had that same thought about where are the PSAs. Just a hashtag? Seriously? They could’ve at least put up a phone number.

    We didn’t get to see near enough of the villains getting their comeuppance. Specially Evil Little Wendy. They should’ve showed her finding out Kaylie helped save her from getting child molested!

    And we didn’t get to see Creepy Coach get busted or hardly anything of his face at the perp walk.

    They also forgot to explain how come Evil Little Wendy didn’t just go down to the CVS and get some sudafed. I know they make you sign for it now. But she doesn’t have a fake ID?

    Getting it with a credit card like that was even stupider than leaving everything out in her room.

    Swapping Lauren and Kaylie around like that was good though! Now we’ll wonder if we were opposite wrong about both of them for 4 yrs!

    Plus what about Payson turning into Miss Technology all of a sudden? Last week she was inventing medical equipment. And then it turns out she’s also learned about “social media”!

    @Escapee I wondered about her going to the club and dancing around with high heels on too. Right before her most important day ever!

    @SG I was so hoping you’d start doing a show I watch. I’m so behind in my TV viewing already. Now I have to figure out how to start watching Grimm too. Not to mention liking it.

    I am glad this show is done, it was really winding down. They should do the same style of show but with ice skating. They would have two years before the next winter olympics, so it could also have an end date.

    I might be wrong, but I thought that when they were announcing the final 5, each of the main girls was standing next to their gymnast stunt double. It might not be, but they were all paired up with the same sort of hair and the same height. I could see the producers doing this in the last episode to give some screen/face time to the doubles (except for all the really bad editing where it is very clear it is not the actress anymore).

    What is Otis made off that it can be moved so easily? It is a huge statue, even if it was hallow, it would be heavy.
