Sasha hasn’t even invited the Chinese to come yet. ![]() She thinks they should have a Bingo fundraiser for the China vs. Oh OK, this actually is relevant to the plot. Summer interrupts him to say that she won $1,500 playing Bingo at her church. *foreshadowing*Īt The Rock, four time Olympic gold medalist Sasha is doing chin ups on the uneven bars with flexed feet. That somehow convinces him to clear her to resume training, but only “A-level skills” for the first week. Payson’s at the PT, and he asks how her back’s feeling. Kim notes that Fake USAG is against this whole thing, suggesting, “Maybe we should just be careful before we go alienating the entire gymnastics community.” ( Seattle Pacific admins take note this is solid advice.) Ronnie goes on a weird rant about her affair with Marty, which amuses Chloe (and me, if I’m being honest). It could be worse you could have two mortgages!”Īt Chateau Cruz, Summer is leading a meeting with The Rock moms to figure out how to raise $30,000 to pay for all of the Chinese team’s expenses so they’ll come to Sasha’s ego meet. The realtor tells Kim, “Well, the market is garbage, but you might get enough to be able to pay off your loan. Oh my, the Keelers are FIFTY FREAKING THOUSAND DOLLARS in debt thanks to Payson’s non-essential surgery and have to sell their house. National Champion Kaylie is superconfident because she’s increased her “DoDs” and when she wins, “The national committee won’t be able to play politics anymore.” Turns out Sasha is pushing the girls so hard because Team China is coming to The Rock. “I can do better, I’m going again.” Sasha inexplicably rewards this behavior by saying, “Now that is the attitude of a champion!” DUDE! That is the attitude of a teenager who nearly paralyzed herself and engaged in a felonious conspiracy to steal prescription drugs, but I’m sure things will be different this time! Speak of the devil, Payson comes breezing up the hill and across the finish line an entire minute faster than her previous post-op PR. When Kaylie points out this folly, Sasha says, “Know what was great about Payson? She never complained.” Well, Sasha, she also broke her back because she didn’t complain. Not sure how them doing distance running is going to help improve their gymnastics… Kaylie refuses because she doesn’t accept food or parenting from adulteresses.ĭespite Kaylie and Emily being left off the team competing at the unnamed yet Very Important Meet in China, Sasha’s still pushing them exceptionally hard and making them run miles on rugged, uneven terrain. Speaking of the Cruzes’ crumbling home life, Kaylie’s mom interrupts her doing homework with an offer to make dinner. Leo orders a ham and pineapple pizza Damon rings up the order and promptly chucks Leo’s platinum credit card back at him like an absolute badass. He decides to alleviate the tension by saying, “You think I’m a loser like all the men your mother ever dated.” Emily gives him the stink eye, but really… Where’s the lie?īecause this situation wasn’t cringe-worthy enough, Leo shows up! He’s back in town to support his mom and Kaylie since their family is in shambles. We open with Damon and Emily at the Pizza Shack, and it’s sooo awkward.
