Sammi: I usually love their dances, but this one did not really work. It isn’t that she can’t dance—she really had the technique down—it was the fact that so many other dancers were involved that it made it hard to focus on them!
Carrie Ann: She didn’t really connect this week, but she really held her ground.
Len: Clean and precise.
Bruno: Intriguing and beautiful.
Scores: 8-8-8=24 out of 40

Len: It was lacking a bit in paso doble choreography.
Bruno: It was a fright fest.
Carrie Ann: She lost her balance a bit.
Scores: 8-8-8=24 out of 30
