Yeah. It was Charlotte and Abi.

I got yellow carded for descent

and then Charlotte water-bombed

the judge

and now we're disqualified.

Why is Charlotte even here?

She isn't even

competing anymore.

You guys know

what Charlotte's like, okay?

She probably did it to see us

fall flat on our face.

[Caitlin] Unfortunately,

a red card means

the team misses

the next competition, too.

But that means

no more comps this year.

Yeah. And no chance

to qualify for nationals.

[Caitlin] Look,

I'm really sorry, okay?

I know this isn't fair.

[sighs] Come on.

Let's get our stuff.

[Hannah] It's just not fair.

[Emma] Hey.

- Who were those girls?

- Charlotte and Abi.

They used to be in our club.

They're really good, Em.

Like, really good.

- And then they left.

- Why?

Years ago

when we went to nationals,

we were certain

we were gonna medal.

Then we came seventh, right?

Charlotte and Abi decided

they didn't wanna be

in a team that couldn't be

champions, so they left,

took a bunch of girls with them

and started a cheer team.

Wait. A-a cheer team?

I thought you guys didn't

really have that here.

They're horrible people, Em.

Like, I am talking, the worst.

You can't be thinking

of cheering with them.

No. No, no, of course not.

I have dealt with girls

like that plenty of times.

They're the last people

you'd wanna be friends with.

I'm really sorry, Hannah.

It's, it's okay.

I mean, it's...

You know what?

It's just disappointing.

I really thought we'd make it

to nationals this year.

Hey. Come on. We got your bag.

[instrumental music]

Sorry to intrude.

Still recovering from the loss?

Yeah, it's been a rough morning.

Caitlin tried to get

the disqualification appealed,

but it got rejected.

I'll bet you, it was Charlotte's

plan that whole time

to get us disqualified.

You know, next time I see her,

I'm gonna get

one of my redback spiders

and I'm gonna put it

down her back.

I'm not even joking.

I can't believe

we're done for the season.

I wish we could still compete.

Ugh! I just wanna

crush Charlotte into the ground.

- Please.

- Like, is that too much to ask?

[Emma] And that's when

the idea hit me.

It was perfect.

Everyone would win.

The only problem was,

I knew it would mean

we'd all become a lot closer.

And that would only make it

that much harder to leave.

What if I told you guys

that you could still compete

and get revenge

on Charlotte and Abi?

How? Y...

We're disqualified.

Well, for gymnastics.

But what if we form

our own cheer squad?

I mean, if they're cheerleading,

then there must be competitions,

right?

Well, cheer's just

starting to catch on here,

so there's a few, but...

Okay. Then why can't we
