Total: 10

Season 7: 8

Season 8: 2

* [Prelims] "This is my dream, and it’s just so to be a part of this, so I’m really hoping for the best."
* [Kickline] "I started losing my pants, and I think the judges were thinking, “What’s going on?” And then when I tried to rip them off, it got hung around my ankle. Finally, I do a kick, and they fly off. Yeah, I’m probably not going to do the whole "ripping off of the pants" thing anymore."

**(7.2)**

* [First week of training camp] "I’m hoping that it’s not a cut night, since it is the first night, so hopefully (Kelli and Judy) get to see how we do under pressure."

**(7.6)**

* [Field practice] "I still need to work on going across the field, but I mean, it’s not a lost cause."
* "I am feeling like it’s pressure, because it is towards the end and (Kelli and Judy) are looking more closely at everyone and noticing little things rather than just making sure that they’re more powerful and fun to watch."
* [Called into the office] "I’m in it to make the team. This is where I want to be. I just hope that (Kelli and Judy) have enough faith in me to keep me here."
* "This is gonna be my first time in the office, and I’m very nervous. Scared."
* [After office, teary] "It was a bit of a shock. I didn’t expect (Kelli) to say that this could be your last night if I don’t prove myself tomorrow. There have been girls that have never been called into the office until the very end, and they’re cut, and I’m just hoping that’s not gonna be me."

### **Season 8**

**(8.2)**

* [Panel interviews] "I was, of course, nervous. There’s a good chance that I could get cut, and that’s just nerve-wracking."
* "I really hope everyone makes it back, and I don’t see why they wouldn’t."
* [Walking to car after not making it back to training camp] "I can't even talk right now, I'm sorry."

## **Commentary**

### **Season 7**

**(7.6)**

* [Field practice] "Teri hasn’t done it right yet tonight, really."
* "Teri’s cute on this." – Kelli/"The most uncomfortable looking, but it’s not horrible." – Judy
* "Teri had some new mistakes tonight that we had not seen in her so far in training camp. I don’t know if it was the big field and being overwhelmed, but she didn’t perform as well as I normally see her do." – Judy
* "You do things big, and it’s big and wrong." – Judy
* "That’s one, two, three, four, down five, both arms." – Judy
* "Can you tell you’re overshooting the yard lines? You’re here, which is hard, because you’ve got shorter legs." – Kelli
* "Teri is on the bubble. I’m not sure that field choreography is her thing."
* "I could say goodbye to Teri, Kim, maybe Emily. And be at 36." – Kelli
* "Teri’s making a million mistakes. See her with the wrong arms?" – Judy/"No. I think somebody’s going to like Teri." – Kelli/"I wish she would quit making mistakes, though." – Judy
* "Teri, you don’t know it (entrance)." – Kelli

### **Season 8**

**(8.2)**

* [Panel interviews] "Teri didn’t have a good interview. She came across… whiney. She didn’t seem like the confident, charismatic veteran in the room, and this is the year where we have a lot of replacement options." – Kelli

## **Office Visits**

### **Season 7**

**(7.6)**

* [End of episode, fourth of four] Kelli says that last night, Teri started kind of scaring her. She hasn’t been on their “hyper-focus radar.” And now she is. She’s fun to watch with the choreography in a small space, but there is something not connecting on the entrance, and that’s the first thing they do every game. Judy tells her that even in the choreography tonight, she made more mistakes than she normally does. She needs to be able to do any song that comes on. Kelli says that after the past two nights, they’re not sure there needs to be a tomorrow night, because that’s an important part of the presentation, and it’s odd, because she’s a smart, articulate dancer. Teri knows she can get it, and Kelli asks if she can connect the dots between tonight and tomorrow. Teri says yes, and they dismiss her for the evening. [*Teri leaves*] Kelli says she can’t take the pressure they’re putting them under. Judy says they’re not there to make them crumble. Kelli feels they have to get on and take the lid off this pressure cooker and get them ready for the game, even if it’s at someone’s expense. Judy says that’s the worst part, and that they lose people they probably like.
