She always has to win you know." Yes in honor of Pillow Talk we are joined this week by Jill and Melissa to discuss the controversial Season 4 episode "No One is Safe". Controversial because Abby decides to give Nia the lead in a group solo about slavery called Free At Last, which was changed to be about the Civil Rights Movement and retitled At Last for broadcast. Holly isn't crazy about the subject matter, but is determined to let Nia make the most out of her rare moment in the spotlight.Meanwhile Abby continues to audition girls to replace members of the ALDC, and a couple of auditioners don't take too well to Abby's rejections. Melissa also finds herself defending her choice to home school her kids from the other moms as Abby starts lambasting everyone else for not following in her footsteps.Quotes“[Abby] ordered, I think it was beef and broccoli, and she pulled a can of Campbell's tomato soup out of her purse. It was cold! Opened it up and dumped it over the beef and broccoli. " (46:31-46:46 | Kelly)“Melissa is contradicting herself. Welp I better drink!" (55:48-55:51 | Kelly & Melissa)“Melissa is doing the lords work. She's sabotaging everyone to keep her job and ours." (1:08:15-1:08:20 | Christi)“Jill wants you to know there's nothing inside [of her poof] except secrets."

While Cathy certainly gets the short end of the stick on Dance Moms, on the second half of "Chloe vs Kendall: Round 2" she's determined to live up to Abby's depiction of her as The Wicked Witch. From insulting Christi's outfit (fair) to mocking the ALDC kids as they perform (uncalled for), Cathy isn't in a mood to give anyone an easy time this week. She's become visibly sick of the show treating her as the default villain and even says so as much directly to camera during competition, and Abby is determined to make sure that depiction sticks.As the girls prepare to perform at Dance Troupe Inc. in Roanoke, VA Abby rallies the girls with a warning that they are replaceable and to not embarrass her. Kelly admonishes Abby, saying the girls deserve a pep talk especially since they've been doing well at competitions as of late. Though only Maddie is given a proper pep-talk and it mostly serves to drive a wedge between her and the other girls. Jill continues to be unhappy with what she sees as a bias against Kendall by the producers as Kendall is paired off against Chloe this week. With Candy Apples afoot however, even Abby isn't going to risk giving her team bad choreo. Or will she?Quotes“Abby's Right Boob... I feel like everybody does that. Right boob? Yeah, why!? Somebody needs to do the left! You're neglecting the left." (03:42-03:52 | Christi & Kelly)“Cathy and Jill actually in real life absolutely hate each other. Remember she was telling us the other day she blocked her?" (20:05-20:14 | Christi & Kelly)“I don't blame Cathy for the way she feels about Dance Moms. She is the goat, and not like the Greatest of All Time GOAT, she's the punching bag." (42:51-43:02 | Christi)“Speaking of witches. The Wicked Witch in the Wizard of Oz when she locks Dorothy in the tower and flips over the hourglass and she's going out and she's like time is ticking? That's how I feel knowing your episode is coming."

I would say Cathy's the good witch, Abby is definitely the bad witch!" It's ironic on the eve of the release of the Wicked movie that we get an episode that heavily centers on wicked witches, though the biggest witch of the all according to our bitches here can't even see the writing on the wall!The episode opens with Payton getting "cut" from the team (can you really be cut if you were never officially on the team?). After three weeks at the bottom of the Pyramid and last week's broken ankle debacle, tensions were running high between Abby and Leslie so Payton was ultimately asked to leave, for now at least. Refocusing on the team, Abby seems to not care too much that the group brought home. victory at the last competition and starts to work the girls against one another. Chloe and Kendall are each given a solo with the intent of settling who truly deserves to be Abby's number 2.Cathy returns with an all boy's team to spice up the competition, which send Abby into an angry spiral. To push back against her nemesis Abby decides the group dance will be about witches, with Maddie portraying a "good witch" as a stand in for Abby. Meanwhile Christi and Jill prep their daughter's solos and the moms start to get a little heated with one another. Jill is convinced Christi is getting a leg up while Christi is upset that Abby won't finish the choreography or her daughter's big dance.Quotes“Hold on, let Kelly choke to death first. Our poor Kelly. She needs to get better so she can go back to being a bitch. Cause when you're sick I can't be mean to you." (1:55-2:05 | Christi)“I don't know. I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on a podcast." (10:50-10:53 | Christi)“I wonder what the card said? Sorry for being late? I don't know, please don't torture me on national television I beg of you?" (46:22-46:31 | Christi & Kelly)“I don't know is this news? I don't know. Doesn't feel newsworthy to me. This feels like the same old shit we listen to every week!"
