Steal My Sunshine

Summary:
With dance camp coming up, A-Troupe are given a day off, so while the E-girls (now without Riley) look after the little children in dance camp, the rest of them (Michelle, West, Eldon, Daniel, Riley & James) go for a day out on the beach. Unfortunately, while they are playing Frisbee, Riley's special necklace goes missing. Meanwhile, back in Studio A, a child has gone missing. Thankfully, she is found and she was just hiding. Chloe tells us that she is terrified if little children and it is almost amusing when she is looking after the young children. Back on the beach, the team are dancing to raise money to get a metal detector so they can find the necklace. Luckily, it is found and everyone has a good day at the beach.

OMG!!! Moment
Two moments stand out in the episode, the one when Margie (the little girl at dance camp) goes missing is one, but the main one is when Riley looses the necklace because you know how furious Emily would be if she found out. You can see how desperate Riley is to find her grandmother's necklace.

This time I have chosen Chloe to look at.

Rock Hard Place

Summary:
With a dance competition coming up, Kate and Chris decide the line positions which annoys Emily. She goes to talk to them and they agree that she can decide the lines. She puts Michelle in the back row which causes many raised eyebrows amongst A-Troupe. When Riley finds out that Kate and Chris had no input on the lines, she tells A-Troupe and Emily is forced to put Michelle in the front.
While this is happening, Daniel is choreographing a dance for J-Troupe which annoys Tiffany so she gets J-Troupe to be mean, However, she comes in and tells them to start dancing and the result is an epic dance. Unfortunately, there is a very sad ending, because Riley got Michelle to go into the front row, she gets kicked out of E-girls.

OMG!!! Moment:
There are two OMG!!! Moments in this but the one I'm going to look at is when Riley tells everyone that Emily made up the lines by herself without consulting Kate and Chris.
On one hand, Emily is dance captain so she should be able to choose the lines but if the lines are so obviously wrong then, if the dancer want, they should be able to switch places.

Get to know:
This time I think we should get to know Riley.
Riley
Contemporary Dancer

Q: Do you play any sports?
A: I used to play baseball when I was younger but then dance just took over.

Q: If you had to take one CD to a desert island, what would it be?
A: Brighter Brightest

Q: What jam or jelly would you be?
A: Blueberry Jam because I love blueberries

Q: What is your dream career?
A: Probably a famous dancer or actress.

What do you think?
Should Riley have been kicked out of E-girls.

Dance, Dance

Summary:
At the start of this episode, Chris and Kate suggest that Michelle should be dance captain but Emily isn't having it so they split A-Troupe into two teams of five. Michelle is in charge of Riley, James, Stephanie and West while Emily is in charge of Eldon, Daniel, Tiffany and Chloe. Michelle's dance is clearly much better but Stephanie deliberately messes up the dance. Kate gets annoyed with Michelle for saying that her dance was ready so Emily becomes dance captain. However after a while arguments begin to break out between the A-Troupe members. Chris tells them that if they don't clean up all the ping-pong balls he dropped then they have to stretch for four hours. There is a lot of arguing but then West and James start dancing and then everyone else joins in. It ends with everyone just dancing for fun.

OMG!!! Moment:
This episode has a very clear OMG!!! Moment and that is where Stephanie is split from Emily and she is told (by Emily) that she must ruin Michelle's dance. In a way, Emily is desperate to keep her captaincy and she had done very well in the past. But they should have been able to compete fairly and Emily may have won anyway.

Emily

Q: Do you play any sports?
A: Other than dance? No, dance takes up all of my time.

Q: If you could dance with anyone else, who would it be?
A:Fred O' Stair because he's such an intense dancer.

Q: What kind of jam or jelly would you be?
A: Strawberry jam because it's the best and jelly is disgusting!

Q: What is your dream career?
A: Obviously, I'd be a dancer on Broadway but I would also like to be a lawyer.

Q: What is your favourite acro move?
A: My favourite acro move is non-existent because it is not a form of dance, it's gymnastics.

What do you think?
Should Stephanie have messed up Michelle's dance?
  

Everybody Dance Now

Summary:
At the beginning of this episode you find out who made it in to A-Troupe and who didn't. This is one of the dramatic moments in this episode when you find out that Giselle didn't make it into A-Troupe so now the E-girls are only Emily, Stephanie, Tiffany, Riley & Chloe with no Giselle. Emily is infuriated even more by this because she thinks it is Michelle's fault that Giselle isn't in A-Troupe. This is also where you just start to see them all dancing.

OMG!!! Moment:
In this episode, the OMG!!! Moment is when Emily tells Giselle that she can't be in E-girls because she isn't in A-Troupe. Like last time it puts a question in my head, is it fair that Giselle cannot be in E-girls? On one hand it is an A-Troupe gang which means that everyone in E-girls must be in A-Troupe but on the other hand it isn't fair to tell Giselle that just because she didn't make it into A-Troupe she can't be in E-girls.

Get to know.
I this post we are going to look at Giselle and find out a bit more about her,
Giselle

Q: Are you named after anyone?
A: No, my mum just liked the name Giselle.

Q: Do you play any sports?
A: I used to play football a bit but then my dance life just took over.

Q: If you could dance with anyone, who would it be?
A: Michel Jackson

Q:What type of jam or jelly would you be?
A: Strawberry Jam

Q: What's your favourite acro move?
A: The spider because it invokes so much movement.

What do you think?
Should Giselle be allowed to stay in E-girls?

Get this Party Started

Summary:
For those of you who can't remember what happened because it was quite a long time ago, it was the episode where the A-Troupers & B-Troupers audition for the ten spaces in A-Troupe. When the third group are about to begin there audition, Michelle, who at this point is an unknown dancer, walks in and asks to audition. Emily and Stephanie are furious and the rest of the E-girls (Riley, Tiffany, Giselle and possibly Chloe) are unsure. However when they see Michelle dance they are totally blown away and they find out that she was Miss National Soloist (She won the national solos), some of them are very excited but Emily & Stephanie are still convinced she's evil. After a long wait and an introduction to the the E-girls and to Squeezed (A juice bar below the studio) you are about to find out who is in A-Troupe, when the episode finishes.

OMG!!! Moment:
For me, the OMG!!! Moment in this episode was when Michelle walks in because it gets everyone thinking, should she be allowed to audition or not because everyone else has worked there way through the next step and Michelle hasn't but she may have worked her way through another studio and then had to move.

Get to know:
In this post we are going to look at Michelle and find out a bit more about her.
