Made: Abby Is Made Into a Hip Hop Dancer

All 18-year-old Abby wants to do is make her high school's hip-hop step team, something her friends and family see as an impossible task. After all, Abby is the minister's daughter, honor roll student, Olympic hopeful fencer and prospective Harvard student. So when she breaks the news to her friends and family, they are unsure whether or not she will be able to achieve her goal. With auditions for the step team only 4 weeks away, Abby's dedication to her goals will be tested. In this episode of MADE, we watch this 'goody goody' test her limits to show everyone around her that she isn't the quiet, studious smarty pants they all see her as and prove to them that this dancin' diva has a wild side. On day 1, we meet Abby's MADE coach, Cedric Crowe. With over 15 years of professional dancing under his belt, this Boston native watches Abby strut her stuff on-stage at the annual camp talent show where she works with children. He immediately realizes his job is going to be a lot more work than he originally anticipated since Abby lacks the enthusiasm and 'flava' associated with hip-hop dancing. They immediately begin the long journey to transform Abby into a girl with the moves necessary to make the school's step team. Cedric begins teaching Abby choreography, spending hours practicing to perfect each move. Both Cedric and her parents realize Abby is bottling up her emotions. In order to help her feel the music and the dance moves, her girls take her out for a night on the town. Abby manages to do a few of her new moves on the dance floor but clams up anytime a guy attempts to dance with her. Back at the dance studio, Cedric feels Abby has the choreography down so he tests her free styling skills and puts her on the spot. After a measly attempt at free styling, Cedric compares her dancing to Charlie Brown. In an attempt to make Abby more comfortable dancing, Cedric signs her up for a swing class. Abby brings her friend John to help her become more comfortable dancing with guys. After the class, John insists Abby go to the school dance the following week to practice her moves, Abby nervously agrees. The final step in helping Abby make her transformation, Cedric brings her to Boston where they shop for step-team appropriate threads. After shopping, they head over to Cedric's dance troupe where Abby gets a first hand look at professional dancers. She then makes her dancing debut, free styling for the troupe. Abby continues to practice her moves for the audition but there is one move she hasn't been able to conquer. The free fall, which Abby has been attempting to master the past few weeks, has taken a toll on her wrist. After fencing practice one day, her fencing coach tells her she cannot do any dance moves involving her wrist, she has spent too many years fencing to waste it on a silly dance move. Finally, audition day for the step team arrives. Cedric gives Abby some last minute motivation before she goes in to learn the choreography. After botching the choreography audition, she believes it is over but the free style audition is her last chance to prove her skills. Cedric tells Abby that she has to do the free fall in order to wow the judges. Using the free fall she pulls off a tight free style audition that impresses both the judges and her coach. The next day, Abby finds out her weeks of practice have paid off, she made the team. Her friends and family watch her make her debut with the step team at her school pep rally. She finally completed her Made transformation, wowing the entire student body and those who doubted her from the beginning. Abbi-licious broke the reserved, book worm image everyone held her to and showed them that she is a wild, hip-hop loving, dancer with flava.
