"What's been the highlight of your life so far, nine year old?!" It's time for another reunion, but this time around the moms are away so the girls can dish the tea. Jeff Collins reads the girls a series of questions taken from twitter, though it won't shock you to realize most of them were secretly drafted by production.

Quotes

• “Clara says you like Chloe better and I'm like I don't like anybody better. I like the cats and the dog better. " (21:55-22:00 | Christi)
• “Peyton is like everyone has been inured so far. And Chloe is like wel I haven't. Don't worry Chloe, yours is coming.” (37:22-37:27 | Christi)
• “I felt like Asia was told what to say there. Kelly, I think Asia was told to say the entire thing." (41:43-41:49 | Christi & Kelly)
• “Kelly, YOU gave the gay talk to half of the United States and around the world. I know! You are personally responsible for teaching many people that being gay is acceptable. It is!" (1:01:38-1:01:50 | Christi & Kelly)

“I didn’t really think about that I was going to be brought up,” laments Kelly, who forgot that even though she’s out for the count doesn’t mean she gets out of being the main subject of Season 4’s first reunion. I mean how could Abby possibly turn down a chance to celebrate her getting her way?

Jeff Collins welcomes Abby to the stage and they cover what a hard time it’s been for Abby with the loss of her mother, making Abby the last surviving member of her family. She espouses about the need to be able to cry and work through your feeling when you’re dealing with loss, though this is not a courtesy she often extends to others. The topic switches to the slap heard around the world, and Abby exclaims that while she can be harsh she didn’t deserve to be treated like that.

Enter Christ, who points out that Abby was being aggressive and instigated the fight. While Abby takes offense to the assertion, Jeff believes the situation has brought the moms together and Christi herself seems somewhat more emboldened than she was prior. Though as Christi notes, that’s not really the case at all, they’re just more targets for Abby to refocus her energy on.

Jeff attempts to bring Melissa out to challenge Christi on her assertions that Maddie lied about the solo incident, but Christi snaps and walks off stage. She is determined not to be set up to fail alone and brings in the rest of the moms as back up. Will the moms be able to patch up some of their differences… I mean is Santa real?! Also Cathy is here for good measure, because what would a reunion be without a little candy apple treat!

Quotes

• “I can remember standing in my closet in my house in Pittsburgh having a full on panic attack, knowing I was packing to go to the reunion." (13:29-13:40 | Christi)
• “Do you have Buddy’s ashes? Yes… well I don’t. Randy got those in the divorce to. He got everything! Even got the dog’s ashes!” (15:59-16:08 | Christi)
• “I’m wondering if people’s tunes changed a little bit, meaning the moms, because of the backlash of the fans from them not standing up for you." (24:58-25:09 | Christi)
• “The minute someone pushes back with a point, she’s like I’ll just punish your kid then!" (55:47-55:50 | Christi)

"Consistently across the board these are becoming increasingly hard for me to watch," says Christi for what might be the millionth time since Kelly departed the show, but she's also nothing if consistent! And as the second half of "Presenting My New Team" begins the new moms and the OG's are already at each other's throats, or at the very least Christy is making enemies with just about everyone including her fellow new recruits. The only solace the team gets from Christy is going to a "bar" where she won't go due to the alcohol. However Kira and Tracey are unable to reconcile their differences and the meeting ends in tears. Meanwhile Melissa is trying to play both sides, pledging loyalty to the OG's while still not willing to spy on the Elite team for them.

Competition day arrives and the ALDC dances are all over the place. Kendall and Kalani's "Rule the World" lands with a thud while Ava and Sarah R's "Birds of a Feather Flock Together" gets a mild reception. Better off are Kamryn and Chloe's solos which perform exceptionally well. Chloe's "Lucky Star" remains a favorite, showcasing how much work she put in to prove herself in a team where she's being increasingly singled out as a target. However, behind the scenes Abby was working to once again pull the spotlight off a Chloe. On camera Abbys sabotage is clearly visible in the team's dueling group dances. Not only does the Elite team get the benefit of having lyrical dance, but the OG's are forced to dance in boots!

Oh and if that wasn't enough, Cathy joins the fray. Why is she present when her team isn't performing? Because why not!

Quotes

• “I'm anxious to see Holly come out of her shell a little bit. Has she peed in the shower yet? No!" (2:40-2:46 | Christi & Kelly)
• “Their kids very rarely got treated as poorly as our kids.” (18:54-18:58 | Christi)
• “You know I'm noticing a pattern here. Melissa doesn't get along with Christis." (21:16-21:21 | Christi)
• “I think the people she picked aren't the best. Like if you could pick the best of anybody in the world, I don't know where she came up with these people." (27:27-27:35 | Kelly)
