Kendall and Brynn are assigned solos head to head, with the losing soloist having their position challenged. But who will Abby cut ? 186 `` Abby 's Worst Nightmare '' December 6, 2016 ( 2016 - 12 - 06 ) 1.04 The mini team have been benched due to Abby not knowing what to do with them, and two new dancers ( Daviana and Camryn ) are brought in to be added to the team.

The two are pitted against each other with contemporary solos, and if Daviana loses she will risk being cut from the team. Meanwhile, Elliana and Lilliana, two members of the mini team return to fight for the lead role in the group routine. Elliana becomes the lead which leaves Lilliana benched and not performing. At the competition the group routine wins, even though mistakes were made by Elliana. Kalani wins with her solo but Daviana places 6th, and as a result is cut from the team. 189 `` New Kid on the Block '' December 27, 2016 ( 2016 - 12 - 27 ) 0.87 Daviana is cut, and Abby brings in new dancer Maesi to bridge the age gap between Elliana and Brynn. The group routine is a hip - hop routine which is supposed onbe what Maesi excels at, but unfortunately she forgets the dance onstage which leads to the group placing third. Maesi 's mother Jaime feels bullied by Yolanda and Stacey ( Elliana 's and Lilliana 's mothers ) and the three dancers are assigned a trio that places 3rd. Kalani, Kendall and Brynn are also assigned a tio which places 1st. When Abby blames Maesi for the group losing, she 's cut her from the team.

Maesi is given a solo to redeem herself from last week and Nia and Camryn are also given solos head to head. The group routine is inspired by the Killer Clown attacks, and despite the group being a mess onstage, it still wins. Nia ' solo wins 1st overall and Maesi and Camryn 's solos do not place.

When only the older dancers are allowed to perform this dance, Jaime is annoyed as her family work in a graveyard.

Elliana ' solo is inspired by Charlie Chaplin, and the team is shocked when Yolanda arrives at the competition dressed as him. The group wins 1st overall with Lilliana 's acrobatic solo also winning 1st overall, and Elliana placing 5th due to sticky stage limiting her tricks in her routine. 193 9 `` Battle of the Blondes '' January 24, 2017 ( 2017 - 01 - 24 ) 1.00 The mothers suspect that Brynn is only given the lead roles because there is no one who has a similar appearance on the team, meaning she stands out more. So Abby brings in a new dancer named Jane who will be Brynn 's opposite. The group dance is all about polygamy, and the dancers performing are the older girls and Maesi. However Maesi is removed from the dance because she does n't look old enough. Brynn has a solo based on plastic surgery which places 3rd, Maesi has a hip - hop solo she learnt at her old studio which places 2nd, and Lilliana performs another acrobatic solo which wins 1st overall. Despite the group routine winning a perfect score, Jane is cut from the team, much to the disappointment to her, her mother and the rest of the ALDC. 194 10 `` Breathless In Denver '' January 31, 2017 ( 2017 - 01 - 31 ) 1.10 This week all of the dancers will be performing in the group dance, and they will be portraying eskimos.
