They started the show this week letting Jessica explain what happened. She broke 2 ribs and fractured one other. She will still be getting to go on tour (exciting!) but will not be able to compete the rest of the show. Then, as I discussed in my spoiler reveal - Kat explained that Comfort is back.

Now, onto how the competition works from this point on: The dancers have been re-paired, and picked the partner for just this week. The pairs will be performing 2 pairs dances and then each of the dancers will be performing a solo. Then, the voting is done for the individual dancers, not the pairs. And the judges will not be a part of the elimination,  it will completely be based on America's vote for the individual dancers. i know - it's a lot of changes - but it should make for some very interesting dances and results!!!!

I am really excited to see what happens.

So, here they go!

Courtney & Joshua
Hip-Hop: The idea was really creative - she was a frankenstien being brought to life 'learning' to dance. They performed really well together and had create musicality. The judges really liked the routine and the fact that they got involved with the characters. Joshua really blew everyone away, but Courtney held her own.
Rhumba: They both looked incredible (gotta love Joshua's tight pants!) - the dancing was good too (lol). Really thought, the judges (and I) loved it. It was sexy, powerful and well performed. They definitely showed up tonight.
Courtney's solo: Well done - although I didn't really like her Celine Dion song pick.
Joshua's solo: He just looked and moved great. He is a step above.

Chelsie & Gev:
Jive: Although they missed a couple of holds, it was really well done over all and definitely showed that they belong in this competition for a while! The judges thought it was great, and Chelsie really stole the show (it is her style after all…)
Contemporary: I really liked it. The story was well told, and their emotion was very true.  
Chelsie's solo: Very pretty and fun. She had great hip movement and looked great.
Gev's solo: This was the first time we have seen him solo since the Vegas rounds since he has never been in the bottom - and I was happily surprised. I had forgotten how good in his own style he really was!

Kherington & Mark:
Country Two-Step: It was fun and Kherington's smile never left her face, but unfortunately they were a bit off time and out of sync. The grabs and holds were really poor. The judges gave them credit because it really is a difficult dance - but they did tell them that it wasn't up to par.
Jazz: This was a true jazz routine, lots of lifts, movement and fun. They did much better with this than the first (although that isn't saying much…). Judges liked it better than the first but it still wasn't OMG good.
Kherington's solo: This probably saved her butt.
Mark's solo: Bohemian Rhapsody - fabulous! totally crazy and fun. loved it.

Comfort & Twitch:
Waltz: Twitch was way better than Comfort (of course) and she was no where near good enough to save herself, but it wasn't 'top 10 dancer' material. Judges didn't feel like they were good at all. It was lacking the power they expected, and Mary really reprimanded them for the fact that they were so choppy and clunky.
Hip-Hop: Interesting costumes to say the least - but I digress. For both of them, they were in their own style - and it was AWESOME!!!!! This is the first (and probably the only time) I liked Comfort. As Lil'C said - it was buck.
Comfort's solo: I have to give her credit in the fact that she is good (still not great) in her own style, but that alone can't save her.
Twitch's solo: As always, just incredible.

Katee & Will:
Broadway: Really good! Judges thought the character and the choreography were explosive - Mary put them on the 'love boat!'
Pas de Deux: 1st thing - they danced to a song by David Archuleta (America Idol runner up) and all i have to say is WHY!?!? anyway - onto the dance. This was the first time this season we have seen a Pas de Deux and it was really beautiful. The judges were blown away - saying they were 2 of the most beautiful dancers they have ever seen
Katee's solo: Beautiful and elegant, she has incredible lines and body control
Will's solo: I liked his, but I don't think he did better than any of the other guys

My guess for the girl and guy that will be going home:
Comfort - duh! she was eliminated once, she'll be eliminated again. Plus, it wasn't really that fair that she got to come back at all.
Will - unfortunately for him, the other guys are just better than he is. Otherwise, he is a really good dancer.
