But it's an equal offender week as even Cathy is getting in on the nastiness.This episode is called "Mackenzie's Time to Shine" and that's only because the ALDC is short a Maddie this week as she's performing with Sia on SNL. Abby decides it's time to move onto her second favorite Ziegler child and gives Mackenzie a solo. As if to emphasize put her in her place, Abby acts as if Mackenzie has no identity outside of Mack Z... like the identity you gave her? Regardless Abby's insults and Maddie comparisons start to impact Mackenzie's performance during rehearsal. Meanwhile JoJo gets her own solo and the group gets a Spice Girls tribute.Over at Candy Apples Cathy hasn't taken her recent loss to Abby very well and decides to assemble her best dancers, because this week the competition is in Ohio and Cathy is not about to let Abby beat her on her own turf. Cathy is so excited about her line-up she can't help but mock the ALDC girls, putting down Nia and dismissing JoJo as a nobody with no following (lol). But will Cathy be able to wrangle her moms together when it turns out one of the m is secretly talking to Abby?Quotes“You know what's so funny? Anytime Gianna is around, Jill is the only one who calls her G. I always called her Bitch." (15:49-15:58 | Christi & Kelly)"Abby ends rehearsal with a few words of encouragement. Is Abby ever encouraging?" (37:01-37:06 | Kelly)“Abby calls her out for looking like a little girl when she dances... she is a little girl!" (53:07-53:12 | Christi)“What in the actual F is happening? [Abby] is so nuts, and you guys are always like oh it's so crazy. No, you have no idea! It was like constantly being gaslit. You're like what!? How did we get here!? What are we talking about?!?!"
