Christi's Time Has Come

Christi Lukasiak & Kelly Hyland
About this episode

"We know that production is doing this. Everything that was stupid, they did," remarks Kelly. Well how stupid could things get? Well how about a Hip-hop Dance Battle?! Cause sure, that'll make the girls look good! Unfortunately as the two part Season 4 finale gets underway, both the Production AND Abby seemingly have it out for the ALDC and there's good reason these ended up being Christi's last days on the show.


The team arrives in Los Angeles for Nationals and Abby has an important announcement to ring in the occasion: She's setting up a new studio in LA. The moms wonder, perhaps naively, how Abby is going to manage to run two studios when she can barely run one! But right now the greater concern is Nationals as nobody is happy with the solos line-up of Chloe, Kendall and Kamryn. Holly is upset Nia was excluded once again and Chloe is upset she's been given bad choreography out the gate. Notably absent from the line-up is Maddie, which everyone finds suspicious.


Meanwhile Cathy delivers a gift to Abby that's sure to stir up trouble.


Quotes

  • “Jill needs supervision. But not in a bad way. Like you and I need supervision in a different kind of way." (05:44-05:50 | Christi)
  • “In this episode if I heard one more person say the word Nationals... I know! Like oh my god I cannot wait for Nationals to be over. How about everyone drink for nationals? That'll be fun, everyone will be drunk before we get to page three." (13:08-13:22 | Christi & Kelly)
  • “I had to pay money to watch this episode. I'm so mad, I want a refund! Somebody give me my $2.11 back!" (46:22-46:29 | Christi)
  • “Did you notice that Abby found a cheese mat in LA? I did. She's like a mouse, she can sniff out cheese anywhere she goes." (51:38-51:47 | Christi & Kelly)
