Since losing at Regionals, A-Troupe is once again the underdog, but that won’t deter them from getting back to the top. As many dancers leave to pursue their goals and dreams, former dance captain Emily steps in to take control of the studio. But her strict regime isn’t welcomed by everyone and the studio quickly divides into two. Only one team can make it to Regionals and it’s a full out battle between East vs. West.
