United Stakes

Kaylie and Payson march into Coach McIntire’s office to inform him of the horrible news, that Coach Ray molested Jordan. When Coach asks Jordan to confirm this, a fearful Jordan denies the story. Meanwhile, Coach confronts Ray and he denies having participated in improper conduct with any of the girls. In an effort to help Jordan feel safe about reporting the truth, Kaylie and Payson send emails to other gymnasts through a social media site asking anyone to come forward if they were ever victimized by Ray. To their surprise, they receive multiple responses which they share with Jordan.

As the girls prepare for the big trials, Payson seeks inspiration for a new routine to perform and brings Rigo to a salsa dance club for support. After learning a few new moves, Sasha surprises Payson and encourages her to take a risk performing her new routine.

Thanks to Wendy’s devious plan, Kaylie is banned from trials after testing positive for pseudoephedrine, which can also serve as an appetite depressant. Kaylie denies having taken any cold medication or relapsing on her eating disorder. Alex demands that Marcus give Kaylie a blood test which will provide a more accurate result. When Marcus denies the additional test, Jordan, Payson, and Lauren boycott trials.

Thankfully, all the girls end up competing in the trials. Austin returns to give Kaylie some encouragement. Sasha is there to cheer Payson on. Lauren is nervous about making it through her entire routine without her irregular heartbeat causing her monitor device to spike too high. Later, Lauren exposes Wendy as being the person placing pseudoephedrine in Kaylie’s smoothies. After all of the routines are performed in competition, the winners are announced. Kaylie, Lauren, Jordan and Payson all make the team!
