Abby creates a dance centered around the theme of bullying and decides to replace Brooke with Payton. She places Jill, Kendall, Leslie, and Payton on probation as they compete for a single spot on the ALDC team. Payton jeopardizes her position by arrogantly claiming superiority over the other dancers due to her age. Jill voices her concerns about Payton’s height, suggesting it makes her an outlier among the team. Although their group performance, "What Comes Around," secures 1st place in their age category, the routine is not featured in the episode.
