In Part Two of this week's episode, UCLA head coach, Miss Val, wanted to clear the air about the do-overs. She talks to Uncle Tim about:

The do-overs: 

Why did Sonya Meraz get to restart both her beam and floor routine?
What went on behind the scenes when Katelyn Ohashi got a beam do-over after her terrifying crash?
