Trivia
- Pyramid
- Mackenzie
- Maddie, Chloe, Asia
- Nia, Kendall, Brooke, Paige
- Although Holly said that Kelly pulled Paige and Brooke from last year's recital, this is not true. She did angrily leave the venue with her kids after an argument with Payton's mother Leslie during dress rehearsals, but she did come back for the actual recital.
- This is episode marks the final appearances of Brandon Pent and Nick Dobbs.
- Abby has claimed in an interview with Afterbuzz that the recital coincided with Kelly's school district's picnic day at Kennywood amusement park; that Kelly never misses that; and it was the real underlying reason for the walk-out.[2]
- This is the last time Chloe performs in an ALDC showcase, as in Season 4, she hurts her foot and is in a medical boot during the week of the showcase.
- In the group dance, "It Never Reigns in Southern California", which was not shown on the show, the music used was the same music used for Madison's finale solo on Abby's Ultimate Dance Competition. The full song can be found here.
