‐ Tonight is the world finale of "World of Dance."

However, when we taped this finale,

national events and gatherings

were just starting to shut down.

In order to take the proper precautions,

we decided to shoot the world finale

without a live audience.

This is not how we hoped to end season four,

but there is one thing I've learned over the years:

a dancer performs just as hard for three people

as they do for 300.

Plus, the title of best in the world

and that $1 million

is still up for grabs.

‐ The world finals, the big dance.

‐ Finale time, baby, let's go!

‐ We have four incredible acts.

Honestly, it's anybody's game.

Pretty good, right? Yeah!

‐ The finalists will each perform one last time tonight

in front of our judges,

their friends and family backstage,

and you at home to prove they're worthy

of being named the new "World of Dance" champions.

And, judges, you worked backstage

this week with each, mentoring all four finalists.

How are you feeling about going into tonight's competition?

‐ I honestly feel like it's anybody's game tonight.

‐ Yeah. ‐ Anybody's game.

Everybody has an opportunity.

But this year is the first year where I honestly can say

I don't know who will take home the million dollars.

‐ Yeah. ‐ I just don't know.

‐ When we first got to "World of Dance,"

we felt so honored to finally be here,

and it actually still feels unreal,

if I may speak for all of us.

‐ ♪ Golden, golden ♪

‐ I am super impressed.

I know how hard that is, 'cause we tried to do it,

and I couldn't get my dancers to be that clean.

‐ Going into this competition,

our strategy was to surprise them every single round.

Out of the four dances we've done so far,

we got three standing ovations.

‐ Whoo! Let's go!

‐ Oh, let's go!

‐ Thank you so much.

And the one time we didn't got the standing ovation,

we went into Redemption.

But I think Redemption made us stronger and woke us up.

‐ ♪ Doo‐doo ♪

‐ Coming home to the Netherlands

as "World of Dance" champions

would mean the world and would actually change our world.

No one from the Netherlands ever managed

to do something big like this abroad,

and it would give us so much respect.

And that would really be our biggest dream accomplished.

‐ Welcome to the finale. ‐ You almost weren't here.

‐ Yes.

A bit stressful, but feeling good.

‐ ♪ Hit me like a tidal wave, ooh ♪

♪ Triggered by the aftershock ♪

‐ Oxygen have a slight advantage

because they naturally think show

as opposed to just choreography.

But more than just being really good now,

when you're in an arena where everybody's great,

how do you stand out?

How do you become that one?

‐ Choreography's really good, but at the end,

I need something a little bit more exciting.

‐ One of those moments that makes us go, "Whoo!"

It's the last eight‐count.

Better give the best eight‐counts

of your life, you know?

‐ ♪ Hit me like a tidal wave, ooh ♪

‐ [speaking indistinctly]

They just advised us to change our ending a bit.

And now we're still rehearsing to give it the finishing touch.

‐ Oxygen. Here we go, stand by.

‐ Let's go, Oxygen. Come on.

‐ It is the world final,

so everyone should feel pressured to deliver

because if we become "World of Dance" champions,

it's something we've been working for our whole lives.

So it would be great

if it would actually happen right now.

I saw the extra hours after us seeing you,

that you did change, that you did take the notes,

But overall, a great Oxygen routine.

‐ Thank you so much, guys. Thank you.

‐ If I may critique anything at all,

I was just anticipating a little more

with a prop that elaborate.

I was waiting on something so cool to happen,

‐ You know, I never would've thought that a group

doing what you guys do would make it to the finale.

I mean, it really is unprecedented

for "World of Dance" to have such

a specialized style of dance in the finale like this.

‐ Fantastic. Well done.

And this is a great example of how you guys used a prop

and used an effect to elevate your performance.

‐ Yeah, I loved the lasers.

I loved how you kind of tried to elevate what you do

and make it show‐worthy for the finale.

I think that worked in your favor.

‐ Thanks a lot.

‐ Thank you very much. Thank you.

‐ I gotta agree with J. When I first saw you guys,

I honestly didn't know if something this stylized

and boutique was gonna be able to go the distance.

So I'm personally super proud of you guys

for even making it to this point.

‐ By the way‐‐ and, you guys,

thank you for taking the note as well.

You took the note, you sped that part up

and made it really exciting, really impactful.

Again, as a choreographer,

I just love your work and respect you guys so much.

It makes me go, "Oh, man.

I gotta, like, incorporate that more into some of my routines."

Like, I love that so much.

You guys deserve to be here. Well done, and just good luck.

‐ Thank you.

‐ Regardless of what happens here today, win, lose, or draw,

I love what you do.

Continue doing it, period, point‐blank.

‐ Thank you very much. ‐ I love it.

Then we'll bring out MDC 3
