Tonight each couple did two dances each. Round one was the ballroom round.

Marissa and Tony danced the tango to some classical song. Len told her that it was her best dance. Bruno told her that she did a great job. Carrie Anne told her it showed a new side of her and was fantastic. They got a 27, three 9s and their best score.

Christian and Sheryl danced the Viennese waltz to “End Of the Road.” Len said they had a bit of romance, but not enough waltz. Carrie Anne wanted more flair. Bruno liked it. They got a 25.

Kristy and Marc danced the Viennese waltz to Avril Lavigne’s “With You.” Carrie Anne said her turns tonight were off. Len didn’t like the skirt, the mintzing around, the umbrella props. Bruno however like it and while her turn was off, it was a difficult move and she tried. They got a 26, including one 8, which they have never received.

Mario and Karina danced the foxtrot to some song I didn’t recognize. Len loved his dance, said he wasn’t the most elegant dancer, but well done. Bruno said he brought so much youthful vitality to everything he does. He felt he wasn’t as in control as the dance needed, but he was a pleasure to watch. Carrie Anne said he does very ambitious routines so he does a lot of work. She told him he needed to be a little stiffer for this dance rather than loose and shaky. They got a 24.

Shannon and Derek danced the tango to another classical song. Bruno told Shannon that she was masterful in this dance. Carrie Anne told her that it was her best dance yet by far. Len said that she did a terrific job. They got a 27.

Jasoin and Edyta danced the quick step to “Dirty Boogie.” Carrie thought it was all fantastic, Len said performances like that could get him to the final and Bruno said it was the performance of the night. They got a 29.

Round two was the Latin Round.

Marissa and Tony did the rumba to some song I have no idea what it was (I can’t wait a moment more?). Bruno said it was romantic, warm and sweet . . . but he wanted to see a little more sex. Carrie Anne thought it was beautiful. Len said it was a little careful and would have liked a bit more from her. They got a 25.

Christian and Cheryl danced the samba to a Latin song I don’t know. Unfortunately at the end Christian pulled a muscle and lost the end of the dance. It appears Christian got a severe muscle cramp. They judged only up to the point of the injury. They all said he was great for carrying on even with the injury. They got a a 21. Christian was later taken to the hospital.

Kristy and Marc danced the cha cha cha to “Please Don’t Stop The Music.” Len said he liked the middle section, but he didn’t like the segmented dancing where she danced then he danced. Len also didn’t like the boogaloo hip hop dancing. Bruno said this was a fantastic cha cha cha and contemporary. Carrie Anne said they got three snaps up and a round and around. They got a 28.

Mario and Karina did the mambo to an unknown Latin song. Bruno said the Latin dances were his comfort zone, he was great. Carrie Anne agreed, this was his dance. Len said it was wild, wacky and wonderful. They got a 27.

Shannon and Derek danced the mambo to “Ain’t Nothing Wrong With It.” Carrie Anne said she doesn’t know what to say. She said some of her lines were awkward because of her longs legs, but she did a good job. Len said she had a bionic bum the way it flew around. Bruno said the others were right, she had a slight gangliness in her lines, but an improvement. They got a 24.

Jason and Edyta danced the passodoble to the theme to Monday night football. Len said he came out with plenty of attack, a little too much posing though. Bruno said it was a winner. Carrie Anne said it was unconventional, but they did a great job. They got a 26.

I have a feeling this week Mario and Christian will end up in the bottom two, and I really don’t know who will go home. It could be Mario, with Christian getting the sympathy vote.
