This week, all of the dances are a tribute to Mohammed Ali. Peyton and Lilliana from the mini team are given an acrobatic duet. The mini team have a lyrical routine where they will portray statues and two new dancers join the original team for a hip-hop group where they portray boxers in a ring. On top of all this, the original team take part in creating a commercial where they will dance whilst wearing the product being advertised. When the moms decide they don't like the group routine, they sneak the boys that danced in the commercial into the competition and rebel against Abby. The two new dancers have to then learn the commercial routine in an hour, and one of them doesn't make it onstage because of this. The group doesn't place and the original team leave the ALDC as they believe Abby only wants the mini team.

Back at Abby's studio, the mini team are challenged with a difficult lyrical routine and Elliana, Alexus and Peyton are given solos. After Kerri (Peyton's mother) strongly disapproves of her daughter's costume, Abby decides to pull Peyton's solo as well as removing her from the group dance.
18433"Two Teams, Two Studios Part 2"November 22, 2016 (2016-11-22)0.81[32]
When both teams arrive at competition, the two sets of mothers talk to each other and the mini mothers say that they will stick up for Peyton and Kerri if they face Abby's wrath. However, they don't stand up for the two which leads to Kerri taking Peyton to Erin's team. Peyton's costume is adjusted and she competed under Erin's name rather than Abby's. Kendall also decides to pull her own solo after her neck starts hurting severely. At the awards ceremony, Peyton places 2nd behind Elliana in the mini division, Brynn wins the preteen division and Kalani places 2nd in the teen division behind Daviana Fletcher (who joins the team in season 7). The mini group places 1st in the mini division and much to the disappointment of their mothers, the original team place 3rd in the teen division. The original mothers fight with Abby and they decide to go their own way without her.
