Austin and Ally are suspicious when Trish and Dez are hiding something from them. This leads them to believe that they are dating when, in fact, Trish is dating Trent, who becomes Austin's newest backup dancer. Trish decided to keep their relationship a secret to not influence Austin's decision when Trent auditioned for a role as Austin's backup dancer. Later, Ally finds out that Trent is cheating on Trish and only dated her to be a backup dancer in Austin's group, she decides whether to tell her or not. After getting advice from her mother, Penny, over video-chat, she decides to tell her. Trish confronts Trent and they break up and Austin fires him from the group, but Trent thinks that the reason he was fired is because Austin is jealous that he is the "better" dancer.
