Dancing With The Stars, Ep. 17.4

Jack & Cheryl - Quickstep
Look at little Jack go! His frame seems a little sloppy, but his feet are keeping up quite nicely.
Score: 24

Elizabeth & Val - Argentine Tango
So mysterious! This is so much better than last week. She actually showed some passion, and it definitely matched the mood of the dance. Her movements were quick and sharp...very well done! I think this was her best dance by far.
Score: 27

Brant & Peta - Salsa
I hate that Brant is hurt! I really hope he can stick around despite the injury. The rehearsals look so scary...he's dropping her all over the place! Yikes! A previous injury to his shoulder prevents him from doing lifts above his head. Yay...the shirt came off! This dance was just FUN! It had the right amount of shimmy and shake and the right amount of fun lifts that he was able to do. Just really cool!
Score: 21

Valerie & Tristan - Viennese Waltz
Well, this dance is more her speed...slow! But yet she still forgets where she is and looks lost, as she basically walks from place to place. Sorry Valerie, it's time for you to go. Enough pity votes, it's time to get serious. We can't afford to lose better dancers because of her story.
Score: 18

Leah & Tony - ChaCha
Every week, she comes more and more out of her shell. She definitely had the shakes down, but she needs to work a little on her hands. Overall it was really impressive.
Score: 24

Corbin & Karina - Paso Doble
I'm really looking forward to this one! I think he (and his abs) are going to kill it! The beginning was good, but boy did he kick it up a notch when that vest came off! Whoa! Pure passion and power! He was hitting it so hard and in Carrie Ann's words it was "smoldering".
Score: 27

Nicole & Sasha - Jive
I love the cheerleader theme. No wonder she's such a good dancer, she was a cheerleader. I love that they threw in some tumbling....she did a great job! This dance was so fast it's no wonder she was sick this week! So much fun!
Score: 24

Christina & Mark - Foxtrot
Not your typical Foxtrot, that's for sure. It felt more like a Jazz routine until they got to the hold. Mark made that about as fun as you can make a Foxtrot...it was definitely unique.
Score: 24

Amber & Derek - Tango
Another injury! She had to have fluid drained off her knees and she didn't dance until Friday! She did a good job for not getting to practice very much. It was pretty good, but I wasn't blown away by it.
Score: 27

Bill & Emma - Samba
This should be fun! Back to his goofy style after the more serious Paso last week. He was a little all over the place with this one, but at least he was having fun. It's quite obvious now that the more rigid dances he performs more technically, and the Latin, fun, shaky dances are fun, but he just isn't as crisp and precise.
Score: 21

In Jeopardy: Valerie & Tristan, Brant & Peta, Nicole & Sasha
