Back in New Orleans, the Queen of Bounce and her team prepare for Katy Red's 15th anniversary performance and a lecture at Tulane University. Only problem is that the Shake Team have gone "Hollywood," giving a whole lotta of attitude and little effort.

With Vera's health in decline, Freedia focuses on staying in New Orleans so he can work on his new album, get ready for the upcoming Mardi Gras parade and shop for a house that he could share with his mom.

Freedia's live show hasn't changed in years and his dancers seem uninspired, so the Queen of Bounce hires a fiery creative director to revamp the show and whip the dancers into shape.
