In "Abby's Worst Nightmare," ALDC coach Abby Lee Miller will receive word that her biggest nemesis, Nesbitt-Stein, will also be competing at the Fierce National Dance Competition in San Diego, California. The event took place on Sept. 17. Upon arriving at Lincoln High School, Miller and Nesbitt-Stein will throw shade at each other.
Unfortunately for the latter, it seems that her team still cannot get better scores than Miller's dancers. The Junior Elite team's lyrical group dance, "We Go On," ranked first overall in the teen division. Brynn Rumfallo and Kendall Vertes' contemporary duet, "My Shadow and Me," ranked first place in the teen division. Nia Frazier and Kalani Hilliker's contemporary dance, "Young and Restless," lagged closely behind at second place.
According to the show's spoiler site, Nesbitt-Stein's dancers performed a contemporary piece, titled, "I'm Your Nightmare" which ranked second overall and second in the teen division. Candy Apples dancer Ava Cota and Haley Huelsman's "Under Your Skin" duet ranked third in the teen division. Other members of Candy Apples competition team include Tara Johnson and Nicaya Wiley.
Meanwhile, now that Candy Apples is back, the producers of the hit Lifetime reality TV show have decided to get rid of the Mini Elite team. In the two-part finale episode from Season 6, Miller expressed her disappointment over some of the young dancers. In fact, the controversial coach decided to axe Peyton Evans' acrobatic routine just a day before her performance. Some of the moms have also commented on the young girl's lack of training and inability to dance in sync with the other girls.
Despite the recent disbanding of the Mini Elite team, two dancers have been bumped up to join the Junior Elite team. Elliana Walmsley and Lilliana Ketchman will be performing with Rumfallo, Vertes, Frazier and Hilliker in the upcoming episodes.
"Dance Moms" Season 7, episode 2 airs on Lifetime on Dec. 6 at 8:30 p.m. EST.
