00:00:00Live from Hollywood, this is Dancing with the Stars.
00:00:11Welcome to the very first episode of Dancing with the Stars.
00:00:15Tonight, we've got two pivotal words, ballroom dancing.
00:00:23The number one show of the summer.
00:00:30Pure, unquestionable excellence.
00:00:40The most wonderful, wonderful dancing.
00:03:10Yes.
00:03:18Tom.
00:03:20Yes.
00:03:21Would you do the honors?
00:03:22I would love to, my friend.
00:03:24Live from Hollywood, it's the 20th birthday party of Dancing with the Stars.
00:04:01and out.
00:04:27Please welcome your hosts,
00:04:29Alfonso Ribeiro, and Julianne Hough, and your original host and guest judge, Tom Bergeron.
00:04:35Welcome to our 20th birthday party, and congratulations to the seven couples who have made it this far.
00:05:03And let's also give a big welcome to our honorary guest judge for the night, Mr. Tom Bergeron.
00:05:14Hi, sweetheart. I am thrilled to be here tonight. It's such a rush.
00:05:19Absolutely. Now, you're here for a special night that began with our spectacular opening number, choreographed by Derek Hough.
00:05:28And featured all six of our original pros, Alec Mazzo, Charlotte Jorgensen, Ashley Delgrosso, Jonathan Roberts, Edna Tislawinska, and Louis Van Ansel.
00:05:42So great to see you all, and we have a number of familiar faces from past seasons in the ballroom tonight. This is great.
00:05:48And later, some other familiar faces will be back on the floor.
00:05:54Now, voting is open.
00:05:56Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on, hold on. I know this one by heart.
00:06:00Voting is available right now and is available to the U.S., its territories, and Canada at ABC.com.
00:06:05Plus, subscribers on participating U.S. wireless phone carriers can text the first name of their favorite star to the number 21523.
00:06:12Message and data rates may apply. You get 10 votes per couple per voting method.
00:06:16Remarkable retention right here.
00:06:20That was impressive.
00:06:21Yes, it was.
00:06:22All right, there are two rounds of competition tonight.
00:06:25First, our couples will perform their routines to unforgettable songs from iconic freestyle dances.
00:06:31Then, it's the relay dance round.
00:06:34For the first time ever, our stars will compete without their pros.
00:06:38Instead, they've been paired with former Mirror Ball champions.
00:06:44Yes.
00:06:44Now, Tom, before you join our judges, what are you hoping to see tonight?
00:06:51Well, look, you're a week away from the semifinal, so I'm looking for the type of dance that induces goosebumps.
00:06:58But, since I'm sitting next to Bruno, I'm also trying to avoid a concussion.
00:07:04Yeah, yeah, I can tell.
00:07:06I can already tell this is going to be a lot of fun tonight.
00:07:09Oh, yeah.
00:07:10Well, we'll start this big night of competition with the film and TV actress who, last week, earned her first 10 of the season.
00:07:18It is my friend, Elaine Hendricks and her partner, Alan Burstyn.
00:07:22The way that you dance is just like a breath of fresh air.
00:07:32Thank you!
00:07:32Nice!
00:07:3310!
00:07:33Last week, I had a great dance, great scores, and this week, I am full steam ahead.
00:07:40Elaine, it's the 20th year anniversary of Dancing with the Stars.
00:07:43Yeah, I've been coming to the show since it first started with Tom Bergeron, Louis Van Amstel, so I've been a fan for a long time.
00:07:53We're dancing a salsa inspired by Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff's freestyle.
00:07:58He's a real showman.
00:07:59You can see how good their partnership is together.
00:08:01Yeah.
00:08:02We have such a great connection.
00:08:03Yeah.
00:08:03So our salsa is going to be a fun party.
00:08:05Yeah, let's do it.
00:08:06Ready?
00:08:06Yes.
00:08:07And eight.
00:08:08Oh, wait for me.
00:08:09Mario and Karina have this electric chemistry together, and Alan and I have a really strong bond.
00:08:15Great connection.
00:08:16The salsa is really challenging.
00:08:17Does that make sense?
00:08:18Yeah, it's fast.
00:08:19And we are not holding back on any choreography.
00:08:23Does that hurt you at all?
00:08:23No.
00:08:24We're doing lifts because a little rib injury is not going to stop me, and I plan on going the whole way.
00:08:31By far your best dance.
00:08:32Good job.
00:08:33Dancing the salsa with her partner, Alan Burstyn, it's Elaine Hendricks.
00:08:40Hit it.
00:08:43I'm going to rock right now.
00:08:57I'm from bass, and I came to get down.
00:08:59I'm not into naturally, no, but I'm known to rock a microphone because I get through.
00:09:05But I mean outrageous.
00:09:06They're with me if you're contagious, because I'm a winner.
00:09:09No, not a loser.
00:09:10To be an emcee is what I choose of.
00:09:12Ladies love me, girls adore me.
00:09:14I mean, even the ones that never saw me like the way that I rhyme at a show.
00:09:18The reason why, man, I don't know.
00:09:20So let's go, cunt.
00:09:23It takes two to make a thing go right.
00:09:27It takes two to make a thing go right.
00:09:32It takes two to make a thing go right.
00:09:36It takes two to make a thing go right.
00:09:38One, two, three.
00:09:39One, two, three.
00:09:42Can't you please now.
00:09:43It takes two to make.
00:09:44It takes two to make.
00:09:46It takes two to make.
00:09:48It takes two to make.
00:09:49It takes two to make a thing go right.
00:09:51Yes.
00:09:52Elaine and Alan with a salsa.
00:10:00It takes two to make a thing go right.
00:10:03And boy, did it go right tonight.
00:10:05Good job.
00:10:07Good job, man.
00:10:07Oh, you've got a little funk in your step tonight.
00:10:12Great job.
00:10:13All right, Tom, as our honored guest judge, we're going to start with you.
00:10:17I guess you're coming over here.
00:10:18He doesn't want to sit there.
00:10:20Now, look.
00:10:21Elaine's a friend, but I have to stoically assess your judge, your dance, and I just want to
00:10:27say, that was really good.
00:10:29All right, Bruno.
00:10:36Well, that's how you get the party started.
00:10:38You got him going.
00:10:40I thought we lost him for a moment.
00:10:43Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, shaken, literally very, very bushy there.
00:10:48Oh, yes.
00:10:50But listen, there is a quality of you.
00:10:52It's something very special.
00:10:53Whatever you do, you're like the best champagne.
00:10:55It always goes down a treat.
00:10:58All right.
00:10:58All right, Carrie Ann.
00:11:00Elaine, that was a fantastic way to start this night.
00:11:03You know, I look at you and I just think, resilience.
00:11:05Two weeks ago, you couldn't even dance, and here you are, throwing it down, giving us
00:11:09some fly girl moves, kicking some booty.
00:11:12Well done.
00:11:13Yeah, Derek.
00:11:14Elaine, you are just like a sizzling salsa queen here.
00:11:20I love it.
00:11:20The way we start this show is truly a celebration.
00:11:22Those continuous spins, by the way.
00:11:24Yeah.
00:11:25That is incredible.
00:11:26Truly incredible.
00:11:27I'll just say, we are in the quarterfinals, right?
00:11:31We have two weeks left, so that's all I'm going to say.
00:11:35That's all you're going to say?
00:11:36That's all you're going to say.
00:11:37You have a lot more you have to say.
00:11:38And you guys head on up to the skybox.
00:11:40One of the couples who tied for the middle of last week's leaderboard is on the way.
00:11:45Robert Irwin and Whitney Carson will be out on the floor soon to perform a Foxtrot.
00:11:50Juliet.
00:11:51Thanks, Alfonso.
00:11:52All right, Elaine Allen.
00:11:54There is just two weeks left in this competition.
00:11:57Everybody is making sacrifices to be here.
00:11:59How much would it mean for you to make it to the semifinals?
00:12:02Oh, my God.
00:12:02It would mean everything to me.
00:12:03I'm so grateful to be here for the 20th anniversary of Dancing with the Stars.
00:12:09I know some people didn't think I would make it this far, but I have been just putting my
00:12:14heart and soul into everything, and I don't plan on quitting now.
00:12:19Well, we're going to get your scores when we come back.
00:12:22Welcome back, and in time for a quick change.
00:12:37Before the break, Elaine and Alan performed a salsa that Carrie-Anne said was a fantastic
00:12:43way to start the night.
00:12:44Let's get their scores.
00:12:47Carrie-Anne Inabe.
00:12:49Nine!
00:12:50Derek Huff.
00:12:52Nine!
00:12:53Tom Bergeron.
00:12:55Nine!
00:12:56Bruno Tomyoli.
00:12:58Nine!
00:12:59All right, 36 out of 40 for Elaine and Alan so far.
00:13:03They'll compete for more judges' points later in the relay dance round, but if you want
00:13:07to see them in the semifinals, you can vote right now.
00:13:10Alfonso.
00:13:10All right, thanks, Julianne.
00:13:12We're off to a great start.
00:13:14Up next, our wildlife conservationist performs a Foxtrot with a special meaning.
00:13:20It's Robert Irwin and his partner, Whitney Carson.
00:13:25We want to do the Foxtrot justice.
00:13:27We had to keep this open still.
00:13:28Yep.
00:13:29Oh, my goodness.
00:13:34Oh, my goodness.
00:13:34Wow.
00:13:35Oh, my goodness.
00:13:35Oh, my goodness.
00:13:37Oh, my goodness.
00:13:38Look, there's a picture of Mama.
00:13:40That's me.
00:13:41That's her.
00:13:41She won.
00:13:42Yeah.
00:13:43I am so proud of you guys.
00:13:45I never thought I would get to this point.
00:13:48You know how I was supposed to be in Brazil?
00:13:49Yes.
00:13:50Doing the Earthshot prize.
00:13:52And I told Prince William, sorry, I can't make it.
00:13:54I'm still here.
00:13:54It's so exciting.
00:13:55And I'm just so grateful.
00:13:57So this week, we're doing the Foxtrot to your freestyle dance, to Footprints in the Sand.
00:14:02This performance is so meaningful because my sister originally dedicated it to my dad
00:14:07and his legacy.
00:14:08So there's a lot of weight because I really want it to be our best dance yet, to be honest.
00:14:13How did you go into this dance?
00:14:14What was your mindset?
00:14:15It was just letting the emotion be real.
00:14:18A part of me healed that day.
00:14:21So now I hope that Robert gets that same experience.
00:14:24I am so excited.
00:14:25Let's do this.
00:14:26Apparently, we have a special call.
00:14:29I don't know who it is.
00:14:31Let's see.
00:14:32Oh, my goodness.
00:14:34How are you?
00:14:35Hey.
00:14:36Oh, my God.
00:14:36Robert, how are you doing?
00:14:37How was Rio?
00:14:39Going really well.
00:14:40The finalists this year, we're really going to go on and save the world.
00:14:42We're missing you, Robert.
00:14:43Whilst your twinkle toes are going off elsewhere, I need you down here.
00:14:48Oh, my goodness.
00:14:50Whitney, you need to get him in as much glitter as you can.
00:14:52Listen, I'm trying.
00:14:52Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:14:53Guys, you've got a seriously good chance of winning it.
00:14:55So just the best of luck on the show.
00:14:57Means the absolute world.
00:14:59Thank you so much.
00:15:00See you soon.
00:15:01Bye-bye.
00:15:01Thanks, mate.
00:15:06What?
00:15:08I can't believe he just said my name.
00:15:10We are doing this dance for Bindi, and we're doing this dance for Prince William.
00:15:14Oh, my goodness.
00:15:15So let's not mess this up.
00:15:19Dancing the Foxtrot with his partner, Whitney Carson, it's Robert Irwin.
00:15:24You walked with me, footprints in the sand, and helped me understand where I'm going.
00:15:45And just when I thought I lost my way, you gave me strength to carry on, that's when I heard you say.
00:16:01I promise you that I'm always there, when your heart is filled with sadness and despair.
00:16:17Oh, I'll carry you, when your feet are flying, you'll find our footprints in the sand.
00:16:34Robert and Whitney with a Foxtrot and an appearance by his sister, Bindi.
00:16:59Come on over here, guys.
00:17:00Come on over here, guys.
00:17:04Bruno, my darling, that was so beautiful.
00:17:15It was a poetic, touching tribute that really touched all of us.
00:17:20I mean, I could not take my eyes off of you.
00:17:24Listen, you've got the Royal Seal of Approval.
00:17:28Now you've got America's Seal of Approval as well.
00:17:32Carry in.
00:17:33I know we all saw that foot come off the ground, but I have to say that sometimes, no, listen, sometimes there are moments that make us change the way we do things.
00:17:44This dance was so powerful, so profound.
00:17:46You have come from being a charismatic, you were so charismatic that first episode, and now you have turned into a beautiful storyteller with your heart open.
00:17:55Who cares about lifts?
00:17:56Who cares about lifts?
00:17:57No more lift police.
00:17:58It's over now.
00:17:59Bravo.
00:18:00Bravo.
00:18:01Bravo.
00:18:02Bravo.
00:18:03Derek.
00:18:04You know, I feel so honored to be entangled in the Irwin story, just even a little bit.
00:18:09It means the world to me.
00:18:11And one thing I loved about your father was that he lived life with so much enthusiasm.
00:18:15And you, my friend, are this generation's beacon of joy and enthusiasm, and you're not just walking the path that he set, my friend.
00:18:25You are dancing it.
00:18:26And you're dancing it beautifully.
00:18:27Yep.
00:18:28Tom.
00:18:29Thanks.
00:18:30You know what annoyed me about that dance?
00:18:33I am doing my best not to get choked up tonight, and that didn't help.
00:18:37Last time we saw each other, you were 11.
00:18:40I was a little bit.
00:18:41You have grown into a star, Robert.
00:18:43You really have.
00:18:46All right, you guys.
00:18:48Head on up to the skybox.
00:18:50The man who has been dubbed the people's princess is on the way.
00:18:56Andy Richter and Emma Slater will be out on the dance floor soon with their quick step.
00:19:01Julianne.
00:19:02Thanks, Alfonso.
00:19:03All right.
00:19:05It's definitely an emotional night already.
00:19:08Robert, can we hold up for one second, and can we just go back to the fact that the future king of England Zoomed you?
00:19:13Is he texting Robert to 21523 or what?
00:19:17I sure hope so.
00:19:19I don't know if you can text him in Britain, but mate, that was just amazing.
00:19:23You know, tonight to me was about this wildlife conservation legacy I represent.
00:19:28I mean, I didn't know that footage was going to be there at the end, but every time that I step onto that floor,
00:19:36I represent my dad, his message, and what he stood for, and I just want to make him proud.
00:19:44He's my hero.
00:19:46I bet these scores will make him proud.
00:19:49Let's get them, shall we?
00:19:51You've made us all proud.
00:19:52Ten.
00:19:53Derek Hough.
00:19:54Ten.
00:19:55Tom Bergeron.
00:19:56A no-brainer!
00:19:57Ten!
00:19:58Bruno Tonyoghi.
00:19:59What do you think?
00:20:00A royal ten!
00:20:01Tom Begeron.
00:20:03A no-brainer!
00:20:0410!
00:20:05Bruno Toney Hill.
00:20:06Well, what do you think?
00:20:07A royal 10!
00:20:09All right!
00:20:1040 out of 40 for our Robert and Wendy so far.
00:20:14That is a first perfect score of the season.
00:20:18They'll compete for bonus points later in the Relay Dance Round,
00:20:21but they still want you to vote by text and online at abc.com.
00:20:26Alfonso, we're coming right back live.
00:20:31Welcome back to our 20th birthday party.
00:20:46Next up, the star who once again has returned to dance
00:20:49with the help of your votes.
00:20:51It's comedian Andy Richter and his partner Emma Slater.
00:20:55You're relatable.
00:21:00That's why you're becoming a people's champion.
00:21:03Seven!
00:21:05It's nice to get a nine.
00:21:07And now I'm going to keep my foot on the gas.
00:21:10So this week we are going to be dancing a quick step.
00:21:13Ugh.
00:21:14I remember in like week two, you pointed at a dance.
00:21:17I was like, what is that?
00:21:19I don't want to do that.
00:21:20And you were like, it's a quick step.
00:21:22Well, now's the time.
00:21:23Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:21:24We're taking inspiration from the freestyle for Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold.
00:21:29Oh, wow.
00:21:30He is such a performer.
00:21:31Yeah, he's great.
00:21:32He looks like a pro.
00:21:33Yeah, very sharp, very precise.
00:21:35Want to raise that level of performance.
00:21:38And I think that that will come with the confidence of knowing the steps.
00:21:41Okay.
00:21:42No, no, no.
00:21:43Crossing front first.
00:21:44This is an intimidating dance for sure.
00:21:46No, no, no, no, no.
00:21:47Don't take that.
00:21:48Because it's right there in the name.
00:21:49It's quick.
00:21:50Uh, uh, uh.
00:21:51Turn the other way.
00:21:52That, that, that, that, that.
00:21:53Jordan and Lindsay's freestyle.
00:21:54Bomba.
00:21:55It's salesmanship.
00:21:56Oh, it looks good.
00:21:57Yes.
00:21:58And I happen to be a salesman.
00:22:00So get ready to buy, America.
00:22:02Get a load of me.
00:22:03Get a load of me.
00:22:04Get a load of me.
00:22:05Ha, ha, ha.
00:22:07Dancing the quick step.
00:22:09With his partner, Emma Slater, it's Andy Richter.
00:22:22Have you seen the well to do?
00:22:25Up on Lennox Avenue.
00:22:27On that famous thoroughfare.
00:22:30With their noses in the air.
00:22:32High hats and narrow collar.
00:22:34White spats.
00:22:35Fifteen dollars.
00:22:36Spending every dime.
00:22:37For a wonderful time.
00:22:38If you're blue.
00:22:39And you don't know where to go to.
00:22:40Why don't you go where fashion sits.
00:22:41Putting on the Ritz.
00:22:42Spangled gowns up on the bevy.
00:22:43Of high brows.
00:22:44Down the levee.
00:22:45All misfits.
00:22:46Putting on the Ritz.
00:22:47And that's where each and every Lula.
00:22:49Bell goes.
00:22:50Every Tuesday evening with her swell boat.
00:22:51Rubbing elbows.
00:22:52Come with me.
00:22:53And we'll attend their Jubilee.
00:22:54See them spin their last two bits.
00:22:55Putting on the Ritz.
00:22:56Puttin' on the Ritz.
00:22:57All misfits.

00:23:14See them spend their last two bits
00:23:17Puttin' on the Ritz
00:23:23Andy and Emma
00:23:31Puttin' on the Ritz
00:23:33With their quick step
00:23:35Yeah
00:23:37People's princess
00:23:41Carrie Ann
00:23:43There is no greater honor or privilege
00:23:47Than to watch somebody show up week after week
00:23:51Giving it his best
00:23:52Even when it may not seem like you're gonna be up here
00:23:56That is the courage that you display every week
00:23:59This is why our hearts go out to you
00:24:01And on top of that
00:24:02This little man is turning into a dancer
00:24:05Did you see that fancy little footwork?
00:24:07You were gliding across the floor
00:24:09That was a lot of choreography
00:24:11You're getting into it
00:24:12I'm proud of you
00:24:12I just love watching you grow every week
00:24:14Thank you
00:24:14Thank you
00:24:15All right, Sarah
00:24:16I'm done

00:24:19Well, you did it, man
00:24:20You did it
00:24:21Thank you very much
00:24:22And the chassis across the floor
00:24:23The skipping across
00:24:24You were moving
00:24:25Amazing
00:24:26The fizz, the flair
00:24:27The old heart
00:24:28It was charmed
00:24:29It was fun
00:24:29By the way, in question
00:24:30Were like the fans
00:24:32Sort of symbolic as the fandies
00:24:34Yeah

00:24:37Exactly
00:24:37Well, listen

00:24:41Andy, the only time I ever danced on a show
00:24:44Season two, a result show
00:24:46I did a quick step
00:24:47And Len Goodman said to me
00:24:48It was better suited for America's funniest videos
00:24:51He would have loved yours
00:24:53Thank you so much

00:24:56Because you did it

00:26:36We're live
00:26:37And we're coming right back
00:26:38Welcome back
00:26:51As we celebrate this 20th birthday party
00:26:54Let's remember the members
00:26:55Of our ballroom family
00:26:57Who are no longer with us
00:26:58They will live forever
00:27:00In our hearts
00:27:01That Arizona sky
00:27:05Burning in your eyes
00:27:10You look at me
00:27:14Baby, I wanna catch on fire
00:27:16So when I'm all choked up
00:27:21But I can't find the words
00:27:24Every time we say goodbye
00:27:29Baby, it hurts
00:27:32When the sun goes down
00:27:37And the band won't play
00:27:40I'll always remember
00:27:44I'll always remember us this way
00:27:46It's when I'm all choked up
00:27:51And I can't find the words
00:27:55Every time we say goodbye
00:27:59Baby, it hurts
00:28:01When the sun goes down
00:28:06And the band won't play
00:28:10I'll always remember us this way
00:28:18Ezra and Riley
00:28:34With a beautiful tribute
00:28:36To those who brought so much joy
00:28:38To the ballroom
00:28:39And that was the perfect way
00:28:40To remember them
00:28:41Absolutely
00:28:42Alright, we'll get back
00:28:43Into our first round
00:28:44With our reality TV star
00:28:46And content creator
00:28:47It's Dylan Efron
00:28:49And his partner
00:28:50Daniella Karagach
00:28:51Overall, a little bit more energy
00:29:00But that was fantastic
00:29:02Eight
00:29:02Nine
00:29:03Thank you for the place
00:29:05The scores really reflect
00:29:06How I felt inside
00:29:07It was all over the place
00:29:08Messed up a little bit
00:29:09Hopefully this week
00:29:10It all comes together
00:29:11Okay
00:29:13So this week
00:29:14We're dancing
00:29:14Argentine tango
00:29:15Inspired by
00:29:17Whitney and Milo's freestyle
00:29:18I feel like Milo
00:29:20Was one of the best performers
00:29:21Because he's so engaged
00:29:23Into whatever he's doing
00:29:25But he's performing
00:29:26He's acting
00:29:27It's gonna be a good chance
00:29:28For you to like
00:29:28Show the character of the dance
00:29:30Boom, boom, boom
00:29:31Attack
00:29:32Milo just looks like a dancer
00:29:34Which is really impressive
00:29:35He owns that stage
00:29:37But he is an actor
00:29:38I'm not
00:29:38Be a little bit stronger
00:29:39I know I am getting better
00:29:42At being in character
00:29:43Dramatic
00:29:43We've been working so hard
00:29:45Each week
00:29:45And it feels like
00:29:46A breakthrough is imminent
00:29:48Like we're right there
00:29:49He was moving the whole time
00:29:51And I'm excited
00:29:52To see if we can do it
00:29:53This week
00:29:53He's a dancer
00:29:54Dancing the Argentine tango
00:29:59With his partner
00:30:00Daniella Karagach
00:30:01It's Dylan Efron
00:30:02Ain't no sunshine
00:30:07When she's gone
00:30:10It's not warm
00:30:14When she's away
00:30:15Ain't no sunshine
00:30:20When she's gone
00:30:22And she's always gone too long
00:30:25Anytime she goes away
00:30:28I know, I know, I know
00:30:58I know, I know, and I know
00:31:00I know, I know, I know
00:31:02I know, I know
00:31:03Oh, I'll leave your brain alone
00:31:06Ain't no sunshine
00:31:08When she's gone
00:31:10Yeah!
00:31:19Dylan and Daniella
00:31:21With an Argentine tango
00:31:22To Ain't No Sunshine
00:31:23Wow!
00:31:25Now that was sharp
00:31:28Oh yeah
00:31:30Oh yeah

00:31:36You can't be tired
00:31:37They got some good stuff
00:31:38To tell you
00:31:39Derek
00:31:39Dylan
00:31:43Dylan
00:31:44Dylan
00:31:45As the great
00:31:48Len Goodman would say
00:31:49Hold my gaze
00:31:50That was your breakthrough moment
00:31:55By a long shot
00:31:56When people ask me
00:31:59Who I'm surprised about
00:32:01I say
00:32:02Dylan
00:32:03What your improvement
00:32:04Has been astonishing
00:32:06The lifts were effortless
00:32:07That routine
00:32:09Was insane

00:32:13I gotta tell you

00:32:33Excuse me
00:32:34Mr. Rudolph Valentino
00:32:36You were not dancing tonight
00:32:38You were starring
00:32:39There is a big difference
00:32:41Above
00:32:42That's what
00:32:43I always say
00:32:44Is not what you do
00:32:45Is the way
00:32:46That you do it
00:32:48And you did it
00:32:49Rightly
00:32:50Perfectly
00:32:51With that
00:32:52With that
00:32:53Carrie Ann
00:32:53Your journey
00:32:57Has been outstanding
00:32:59And there has always been
00:33:01Jill Marini
00:33:01I have to point you out
00:33:02Because
00:33:02Up until tonight
00:33:04The man who held the crown
00:33:06For the Argentine tango
00:33:07For me
00:33:08The best performance
00:33:09Is with Jill Marini
00:33:10Tonight my friend
00:33:11It now goes to you
00:33:14With all my love Jill
00:33:17Head on up to the skybox
00:33:19Right now
00:33:20You can see
00:33:21Jordan Childs
00:33:22And Ezra Sosa
00:33:23Getting ready
00:33:23For their dance
00:33:24Live on TikTok
00:33:25At official DWTS
00:33:27Brandon and Britt
00:33:28Are bringing you all
00:33:29The behind the scenes
00:33:30Action tonight
00:33:31Julianne
00:33:32Thanks Alfonso
00:33:34Dylan and Daniela
00:33:36By the way
00:33:36I saw that cheeky
00:33:37Little smile
00:33:38That you guys
00:33:38Both shared
00:33:39After you nailed
00:33:40That lift
00:33:40I saw it
00:33:41Alright so now
00:33:42The relay dance
00:33:43Is coming up
00:33:44You are going to be
00:33:45Dancing with
00:33:45Not your partner
00:33:47But another champion
00:33:48How are you feeling
00:33:49About that
00:33:49I'm really excited
00:33:51Because a lot of people
00:33:52Don't see
00:33:53A male celebrity
00:33:54Leading a lot of the time
00:33:55Because they have
00:33:56A female pro
00:33:57But this time around
00:33:58If you guys see
00:33:59How Dylan leads
00:34:00His partner right now
00:34:01It's so impressive
00:34:02I wanted to cry
00:34:03When I watched it
00:34:04Alright well we're
00:34:05Going to see that
00:34:06Coming up
00:34:07But first
00:34:07Let's get your scores

00:34:54Dylan
00:34:54I'm so proud
00:34:56That's the first time
00:34:58I feel really proud
00:34:59After this
00:35:00You absolutely should feel proud
00:35:01Well even though
00:35:02They will compete again
00:35:03For more points

00:35:17Whose energetic
00:35:17Tina Turner inspired routine
00:35:19Landing her just one point
00:35:21Behind the leaders
00:35:21Is Jordan Childs
00:35:23And her partner
00:35:23Ezra Sosa
00:35:25Jordan you take the risks
00:35:29And this one delivered
00:35:30Yes
00:35:31I'm so proud of you
00:35:33It's so good
00:35:34I was so happy
00:35:35That I got two nines
00:35:36And two tens
00:35:37But we only have
00:35:38Three more weeks left
00:35:39And this is grind time
00:35:40Happy birthday
00:35:41Happy birthday
00:35:43Growing up
00:35:45Watching Dancing with the Stars
00:35:47I used to recreate
00:35:48A lot of the different moves
00:35:50So I'm really excited
00:35:51For this week
00:35:52We will be doing
00:35:54A cha-cha-cha
00:35:55To Sierra's getup
00:35:56Inspired by
00:35:57Wayne Brady's freestyle
00:35:59From season 31
00:36:00Period
00:36:01He's got style
00:36:02He's got finesse
00:36:03That's exactly
00:36:04What our cha-cha needs
00:36:05A little all out
00:36:07Yes
00:36:07Wayne Brady brought that
00:36:09Spicy hot energy
00:36:10And that is so great
00:36:12Because that is another
00:36:13You know side of me
00:36:14That I really want to
00:36:15Dive deeper into
00:36:16We're getting spicy
00:36:17When I was younger
00:36:18I told myself
00:36:19If I had to learn
00:36:20Any dance
00:36:21On Dancing with the Stars
00:36:22I hoped
00:36:23It would be the cha-cha
00:36:23Because as gymnasts
00:36:25We like to be very up
00:36:26And joyful
00:36:26So
00:36:27I want to kill this cha-cha
00:36:29So bad
00:36:30Please, please, please
00:36:31Do us justice
00:36:32Okay, show off
00:36:33Dancing the cha-cha
00:36:38With her partner
00:36:39Ezra Sosa
00:36:40It's Jordan Childs
00:36:41He said
00:36:53Hi, my name is so-and-so
00:36:55Baby, can you tell me those
00:36:57You look like you came to do
00:36:59One thing said it all
00:37:01I started on the left
00:37:03Then I had to take him to the right
00:37:05He was out of breath
00:37:07But he kept on dancing all night
00:37:09You tried
00:37:10And did it
00:37:11But you just kept on
00:37:12Dealing inside
00:37:13You know it
00:37:15And I can see it
00:37:16In your eyes
00:37:18You will be
00:37:19As smooth as a mother
00:37:20You're so undercover
00:37:22By the way that you was watching me
00:37:25I've got to have you, baby
00:37:29I've got to have you, baby
00:37:33I can feel it in the beat
00:37:36Do those things to me
00:37:38Don't let nothing stop you
00:37:40Somebody bring me along
00:37:45The club is jumping now
00:37:47So get up
00:37:48Oh yeah, Jordan and Ezra
00:37:54With a cha-cha to get up
00:37:56Oh, they were jamming
00:37:59Now that was fun
00:38:03Oh yeah, you wanted to do that cha-cha
00:38:06All right, Tom, take it away
00:38:08Can I just ask
00:38:10If maintenance is listening
00:38:11Could you turn up the air conditioning
00:38:13It got really hot in here
00:38:15Hey
00:38:16All right, Bruno
00:38:18Oh, what's going on
00:38:21You bad, bad, bad girl
00:38:22Does your mama know you're doing this?
00:38:24Oh my
00:38:25Excuse me
00:38:26It looks better when she does it
00:38:28You definitely brought sexy
00:38:30Back into the cha-cha-cha
00:38:32All right, Carrie Ann
00:38:37Okay, strong dance
00:38:39A little bit wild at times
00:38:43And the one note I want to tell you
00:38:44Is your shoulders are coming up
00:38:46When you're turning
00:38:46And it happened numerous times in this
00:38:49So I really want you to work on that
00:38:50Because you have been outstanding
00:38:52And your growth and your power
00:38:53And I love it
00:38:54And I want you to continue this way
00:38:55All right, Derek, lock in your score
00:38:57You know what
00:38:59It's a celebration tonight
00:39:00I want to say and point something out
00:39:02In the rumba a couple weeks ago
00:39:04You did something
00:39:04You had quality in your body
00:39:05Tonight you did an overturn
00:39:07You settled your weight
00:39:08You had texture in your body
00:39:09You had resistance in your body
00:39:10It's those small things
00:39:11That I see as a dancer
00:39:12I have to close my eyes
00:39:13Because I'm visualizing it
00:39:14It's what I appreciate
00:39:16All right
00:39:17You see the flips like last week
00:39:18All these things
00:39:19I think it's amazing
00:39:20I love that stuff
00:39:20But you know what I love even more
00:39:21I love the texture in the body
00:39:23And I saw that tonight
00:39:25Jordan, give it to me
00:39:26Let's go

00:42:23From herself
00:42:23What am I doing wrong?
00:42:25But now she needs

00:42:27And really enjoy
00:42:28The moment
00:42:29You're good enough
00:42:29Part of me always
00:42:31Held back

00:48:40A part of that
00:48:40It's pretty cool
00:48:41It's so cool
00:48:41I've done the show
00:48:42Now for 18 years
00:48:43I've just learned so much
00:48:44Being a teacher
00:48:45And a friend
00:48:46And a coach
00:48:4720 years ago
00:48:47That's why I would have
00:48:48Been in 6th grade
00:48:48On the monkey bars
00:48:49Being a pest
00:48:50Being a pest
00:48:51Nothing's changed
00:48:53So this week
00:48:54We are dancing
00:48:55An Argentine tango
00:48:56Inspired by Gabby and Val's
00:48:57Reestyle from season 31
00:48:59She shows like
00:49:00So much passion
00:49:01In this dance
00:49:01It'll be nice to see
00:49:02Passion, seduction,
00:49:04Intensity
00:49:04From you
00:49:05We've not seen that yet
00:49:06Can you hold it?
00:49:07Whoa
00:49:07I need to find that passion
00:49:09That Gabby had
00:49:10Come on
00:49:10Eh
00:49:11I
00:49:11The really fast
00:49:13Kicks and flicks
00:49:14I can't figure it out
00:49:15I feel like this is
00:49:16Harder than the samba
00:49:17Yeah
00:49:17I have to lock in
00:49:19Almost
00:49:19And give the performance
00:49:20Of a lifetime
00:49:21Woo
00:49:21Did you feel that?
00:49:23That was fun
00:49:24Dancing the Argentine tango
00:49:28With her partner
00:49:29Mark Ballas
00:49:30It's Whitney Levitt
00:49:31Huh

00:49:58He only had himself to blame
00:50:02If you'd have been there
00:50:04If you'd have seen it
00:50:05I bet you you would have done the same
00:50:09I met Ezekiel Young from Salt Lake City about two years ago
00:50:16And he told me he was single
00:50:18Single my ass
00:50:20He had six wives
00:50:22One of those Mormons, you know
00:50:24Some guys just can't hold their arsenic
00:50:28He had it coming
00:50:29He had it coming
00:50:30He had it coming
00:50:31He had it coming
00:50:32He only had himself to blame
00:50:36If you'd have been there
00:50:37If you'd have seen it
00:50:39I bet you you would have done the same
00:50:43Whitney and Mark with an Argentine tango
00:50:52Yes, Team Chicago in the place to be
00:50:57Oh yeah
00:50:59Now that's Team Chicago

00:51:07Okay
00:51:08Carrie Ann
00:51:09Wow
00:51:11Whitney
00:51:12What are you doing after this show?
00:51:16Because whatever it is
00:51:16I'm going to be your biggest fan
00:51:17I'm going to follow you wherever you go
00:51:19That was such an incredibly passionate and precise dance
00:51:25The way you stuck that foot
00:51:27Thank you girl
00:51:28You were sticking that landing
00:51:29And you nailed it
00:51:30Nailed it
00:51:30Good job
00:51:31Alright, Derek
00:51:32I mean it was just dripping in elegance and control
00:51:36I mean it was smooth, silky, precise
00:51:39The cicadas, right?
00:51:41It was just the displacement of the legs and the feet
00:51:43The gonchos, the hooks
00:51:45It was so filled
00:51:47The artistry
00:51:48The musicality
00:51:50The theatrics
00:51:51It had it all
00:51:54Alright, Tom
00:51:56I have to tell you
00:51:57I was so swept away
00:51:59Derek had to go enter your score, Tom
00:52:01Yes
00:52:02I do want to say
00:52:04The host part of my brain
00:52:05You got immunity
00:52:07That's the good news
00:52:08But the bad news is
00:52:09You're not dancing again
00:52:10So I'm side out of mind, right?
00:52:12You want
00:52:13You're still in the competition
00:52:14You know what I mean?
00:52:16It's like
00:52:16Still vote for them
00:52:18Don't forget
00:52:19Leaving them on a high
00:52:21Bruno
00:52:21I knew you were a ruthless killer
00:52:25Razor sharp
00:52:27Focus
00:52:28Driven
00:52:29By passion
00:52:30Now your leg work
00:52:31And what you did today
00:52:33Really is worthy of such a risk
00:52:35Especially from the drop
00:52:36To the leg
00:52:37To the split
00:52:38Excuse me, honey
00:52:39Best dancer
00:52:41Tonight
00:52:43In my eyes
00:52:45Alright
00:52:45Head on up to the skybox
00:52:48If you want an exclusive live sneak peek
00:52:51At the stars
00:52:52In tonight's first relay dance matchup
00:52:54Head to TikTok
00:52:56At official DWTS
00:52:58Brandon and Britt
00:52:59Have the couples
00:53:00And all of the inside secrets
00:53:04Yeah, Julianne
00:53:05Oh, I love juicy, juicy secrets
00:53:08And speaking of secrets
00:53:09I love that Mormon part of the dance
00:53:12It was so perfect
00:53:13It had to have it
00:53:13Oh, yes, it did
00:53:15Okay, you know what?
00:53:16Tom is right
00:53:16You actually are going to be skipping the relay dance
00:53:19What do you feel about that?
00:53:21I'm not going to lie
00:53:21I have major FOMO
00:53:23Major FOMO
00:53:24This whole week
00:53:25But I'm going to be on the sidelines rooting them on
00:53:27Yeah
00:53:28Alright, well, you know what?
00:53:29Let's just get your scores
00:53:31Carrie-Anne Inabe
00:53:33Yeah
00:53:34To 10
00:53:34Derek Huff
00:53:36To 10
00:53:37Tom Bergeron
00:53:40We're going to get hit with confetti again
00:53:42It's a 10
00:53:43Bruno Tomyoni
00:53:45Yeah, she's a 10
00:53:46Yeah
00:53:4840 out of 40 for Whitney and Mark
00:53:51You're a perfect score
00:53:53It's the first one
00:53:54Since they won immunity last week
00:53:55They won't have to compete in tonight's relay dances
00:53:58They'll also win two bonus points from the judges
00:54:00However, it doesn't mean they are immune from tonight's elimination
00:54:04They are still just as likely to go home as any of our stars
00:54:07They definitely need your votes to dance in the semifinals
00:54:10Alfonso
00:54:10Alright, thanks, Julianne
00:54:12The stars are getting ready to dance without their pros
00:54:15And for the first time ever with returning champions
00:54:18The relay dances are next
00:54:20Now, let's get the inside perspective of the people who have been watching all of the dances
00:54:27Since day one
00:54:28Our judges
00:54:29I remember the very first day when I walked onto set with Len and Bruno
00:54:34It felt like something a little magical is happening here
00:54:38When I first met Len, it's like meeting a brother
00:54:42Bruno, he's such a star
00:54:45I want to dance with you
00:54:47Carrie Ann, he just was love at first sight
00:54:49You're a sexy guy
00:54:51Yes, focus
00:54:51I'm trying
00:54:52She always judged from her heart
00:54:55And I always loved that about her
00:54:56I'm Derek Cuff
00:54:58And I'm deadly when I hit that dance floor
00:55:00Being a pro dancer on the show for so many years
00:55:03Facing the judges
00:55:04Then to being a judge
00:55:06It's a really special experience
00:55:08It was like going from teaching somebody for six hours a day
00:55:12To teaching somebody within ten seconds
00:55:14Start from the bottom
00:55:15Keep those turned out
00:55:16Well done
00:55:17I'm getting it
00:55:18I'm doing it
00:55:19Derek and Bruno have the realest bromance I've ever seen
00:55:22Oh my goodness
00:55:23You've got us both
00:55:24My first impression of Carrie Ann was like
00:55:26Yo, can this woman stay in her seat?
00:55:28I have fallen out of my chair twice
00:55:30Oh no
00:55:31Why are you looking at...
00:55:36Did I do three?
00:55:37Hold on
00:55:38Oh look at that
00:55:3930 seconds everybody
00:55:43To be a good judge on a TV show
00:55:46You have to be entertaining
00:55:48You married a murderer
00:55:49You have to make valid points
00:55:51Watch the frame
00:55:52You have to communicate
00:55:54Just be aware of your whole body
00:55:56What people might not know is that we have to lock in our scores
00:55:59From the moment they finish their dance
00:56:01To they get to Alfonso
00:56:03There's applause, applause, applause
00:56:05Two seconds
00:56:05About three to five seconds where they walk over
00:56:07And then we've got to score
00:56:08And we've got to deliver our commentary
00:56:11We work as a team and also individually
00:56:14So if Derek's already said like the positive parts
00:56:17The shaping
00:56:18You hit this thing and you kind of went
00:56:19And I know that there's something that they still need to work on
00:56:22There were a few stumbles with your foot
00:56:24I'm going to point it out
00:56:25Well none of this would have been possible without Len
00:56:29I've known Len since I was 15 years old
00:56:33I think Baldwin's going to really suit you
00:56:35So to sit in his seat
00:56:37Because it will forever be his seat
00:56:39It's an honor
00:56:40His presence will always be a part of Dancing with the Stars
00:56:44May continue
00:56:46I mean he's
00:56:47Amazing
00:56:51Welcome back
00:57:07Before we start the second round
00:57:08Let's take a look at the leaderboard
00:57:10With Whitney and Mark's two bonus points added in
00:57:13Currently at the top are Whitney and Mark with 42
00:57:16And at the bottom are Andy and Emma with 29
00:57:19Now Whitney and Mark won't compete in this round
00:57:22But they still need your votes
00:57:25The relay dance round could shake things up
00:57:28This is the last chance for our couples to get into next week's semifinals
00:57:32They've been divided into three relay groups
00:57:35The winner of each group will be awarded two bonus points
00:57:39For the first time ever the stars won't be dancing with their pros
00:57:42Instead they've been paired with past mirrorball champions
00:57:45Up first it's Jordan and Ezra versus Elaine and Alan
00:57:50And replacing those pros are
00:57:54The champions of season 4 and season 24
00:57:58Olympic gold medalist Apollo Anton Ono
00:58:02And NFL running back Rashad Jennings
00:58:05Let's see how our first two couples and their champions trained for this round
00:58:10For the relay
00:58:14You're actually not dancing with me
00:58:16What?
00:58:16It's going to be a little weird but I'm very excited
00:58:19Okay so like who's our partner?
00:58:21Oh my god!
00:58:23I'm so giddy right now
00:58:24Team USA!
00:58:26It's pretty cool that I have a you know a former Olympian and former mirrorball winner
00:58:30This is like a good speed skating position
00:58:32That low?
00:58:32And in dance you want to be tall
00:58:34I wonder who it is
00:58:35Yeah!
00:58:38Rashad Jennings!
00:58:39We're here!
00:58:40Rashad runs a 4.59 40 yard dash so he's quick
00:58:44It's been a while but hey you know we get these shoulders back
00:58:46I'll give you a nice frame to get in
00:58:47I haven't danced in 13 years
00:58:50Are you ready to know your style and song?
00:58:54Quick step to I Get a Kick Out of You by Michael Buble
00:58:59Are you ready to get that stamina up?
00:59:01We have no choice
00:59:01You did the quick step
00:59:03We got tens
00:59:04Oh yeah!
00:59:05Jordan Childs and Apollo Anton Ono
00:59:08Two Olympians
00:59:09That's some talent
00:59:10Elaine Hendricks and Rashad Jennings
00:59:14Oh!
00:59:14Actress athlete against two athletes
00:59:16We got to turn it up
00:59:17Did you bring your jockstrap?
00:59:19I got two of them in case you know
00:59:20You got one for me
00:59:21You got one for me
00:59:21You got one for me
00:59:22When you go into frame you're going to think of pulling your elbow back
00:59:25Jordan is a technician
00:59:27And step and step
00:59:28But our advantage is how we can fill the room with our joy
00:59:32If it's not me dancing I'm glad it's Rochelle
00:59:34This is weird I'm not doing anything
00:59:36The most challenging part
00:59:38Oh shoot
00:59:39Is someone shorter than I'm used to
00:59:40I can give you some of my inches honestly
00:59:42That would be amazing
00:59:43You're a big guy so you're going to have to bend those knees a little bit
00:59:46And uh
00:59:46I'm very rusty
00:59:48But getting these two points
00:59:49This is critical for her
00:59:50So there's a lot of pressure here
00:59:52You're getting flashbacks
00:59:53Miss Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
00:59:55May the quickest quick step win
00:59:57Pivot perfect
00:59:58Last time I was in frame I was in somebody's picture
01:00:00It's a lot of pressure on me
01:00:02But I'm going to get it
01:00:03And we're going to get those two points
01:00:04Great partner
01:00:05I have had some big highs and some big lows
01:00:08Which makes me all the more determined
01:00:10To see it to the semifinals
01:00:12It was fast
01:00:13Yeah
01:00:13I want to quick step my way into the semifinals
01:00:15So bad
01:00:16Chassé you slay
01:00:18We got to take it all in the ballroom
01:00:19And leave it there
01:00:20Dancing the quick step relay
01:00:24It's Jordan Childs and Apollo Anton Ono
01:00:27Versus Elaine Hendricks and Rashad Jennings
01:00:31I get no kick from champagne
01:00:41Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
01:00:47Tell me why should it be true
01:00:51That I get a kick out of you
01:00:56I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me
01:01:07I get a kick though it's clear to see
01:01:13You obviously do not adore me
01:01:18I get no kick in a plane
01:01:22Flying too high with some girl in the sky
01:01:28Is my idea of nothing to do
01:01:32But I get a kick out of you
01:01:37I get a kick out of you
01:01:50I get a kick out of you
01:01:57Jordan and Apollo and Elaine and Rashad with a quick step relay

01:02:40Yeah

01:02:42It's an interesting thing in these relays
01:02:45If the couples are kind of equally matched
01:02:48And we had athleticism and elegance
01:02:50And it's like a Reese's peanut butter
01:02:52Are they sponsors?

01:03:58I do have to say he is pretty sweet
01:04:00But I definitely thank you Julianne for allowing me to take him
01:04:04I do feel territorial
01:04:06All right
01:04:07Now Elaine
01:04:08Rashad got a 10 in his quick step the first time
01:04:11So how did that go into it?

01:04:32Will have two bonus points added to their total for the night
01:04:36What does that mean to you Jordan?
01:04:37It means everything
01:04:38And honestly thank you guys so much

01:05:31Actor and singer Rumor Willis
01:05:33And The Bachelorette star Caitlin Bristow
01:05:35Here's how they trained
01:05:38You've got to be on your best behavior
01:05:45Because the first time you're dancing with somebody else
01:05:47You're the one that's leaving me with a sitter
01:05:49I'm Andy
01:05:56It's a little intimidating
01:05:57You know somebody that won a mirror ball
01:05:59How long has it been since your season?
01:06:01That was five years ago
01:06:02Have you danced since?
01:06:03No
01:06:04Hello
01:06:05This is going to be epic
01:06:07I love Rumor
01:06:08You're friends with my brother
01:06:09Yeah
01:06:10I feel like I have a head start
01:06:11When did you do this show?
01:06:13Ten years ago
01:06:13We are dancing a Viennese waltz to end it by the weekend
01:06:19Sexy!
01:06:20She won't let me be sexy
01:06:21Yes
01:06:21Well I will
01:06:22She says America can't handle it
01:06:24I did that song to a Viennese waltz to end it
01:06:27Did you really?
01:06:28Yes
01:06:28It's Dylan Efron and Rumor Willis
01:06:31Wow
01:06:32We got Andy
01:06:34And Caitlin Bristow
01:06:36She's really good
01:06:36Gotta do some cardio
01:06:38It's been a minute
01:06:39The hunkiness category Dylan and Rumor have us beat
01:06:44Yoink
01:06:45What's that?
01:06:47Yoink
01:06:47But I can sell it better than he does
01:06:49So we'll see what wins out
01:06:51So we gotta find that right hand
01:06:52Yeah
01:06:52Danny's short
01:06:53As soon as Rumor's there it's like
01:06:54Oh I can bring my chest up
01:06:56And it feels really natural
01:06:57Yeah
01:06:57I don't think I've danced competitively since season 20
01:07:01But what hasn't changed is I'm gonna win
01:07:04No biscuit feet baby
01:07:06One, two
01:07:07Sorry, sorry
01:07:08I would like to win this relay
01:07:09I want to do it for America
01:07:10And I want to do it for Andy
01:07:12Game on
01:07:12Yes
01:07:13This is the dance to get to the semifinals
01:07:16I'm leaving it all out there
01:07:18Good
01:07:18I'm gonna kill it Dylan
01:07:20Wheelie rotate
01:07:21Yes
01:07:22I don't want to go
01:07:22I want to stick around
01:07:24You are killing it
01:07:25Oh thank you

01:08:37Girl you're perfect
01:08:41I'ma care for you
01:09:03Yes, Dylan and Rumor and Andy and Kaelin with a really Viennese waltz.
01:09:12The pros are on the floor.
01:09:15All right, it's madness down here.
01:09:18It is madness.
01:09:20Oh, I have a shirt just like that.
01:09:22You want me to close it up?
01:09:23All right, Tom, you're up first.
01:09:25All right, sit down, sit down, sit down.
01:09:27Well, first of all, Andy, that was ab fab.
01:09:30It was.
01:09:31And Rumor, it's so great to see you.
01:09:33I have to tell you, one of the highlights for me of your season was meeting your dad.
01:09:37And I just want to send my warm wishes to you, your dad, and your whole family.
01:09:42You guys, it was like a massive entertainment experience.
01:09:47That was wonderful.
01:09:48Bruno, I mean, Rumor, Dylan, you two literally, you were making music.
01:09:54There were like two finely tuned instruments in perfect harmony.
01:09:59I know who the tuner is, by the way.
01:10:02Andy, you wanted to distract me, you succeeded.
01:10:05This is going to go viral.
01:10:07It really is.
01:10:08All right, Carrie Ann.
01:10:10You two, they're magic.
01:10:14I mean, magic.
01:10:15They're just the poetry, the way you guys dance, the chemistry, all of that was fantastic.
01:10:19And you, sir, what's up with the sex appeal tonight?
01:10:22You were a give it, give it, give it.
01:10:24But, Carrie Ann, I'm not joking.
01:10:25Like, okay, forget the shirt.
01:10:26No, seriously.
01:10:27I'm not speaking from a woman's point of view.
01:10:29No, wait, hold on.
01:10:30I got to say this, because you deserve this.
01:10:32You are sexy tonight.
01:10:33You are a sexy beast.
01:10:35Go ahead, go ahead.
01:10:36No, I just, I've never seen abdominal muscles wrinkled before.
01:10:40But there you go.
01:10:41Well, there you go.
01:10:42There's something new I can say that they haven't already said.
01:10:45You know, Dylan and Rumer, you guys look like you've been dancing together forever.
01:10:48It looked, it was beautiful.
01:10:49And Andy, my friend, that was so fun and entertaining.
01:10:54But again, but you, you were doing it.
01:10:56You know what I mean?
01:10:57Like, you were like, ugh.
01:10:58And yeah, it was fun, but it was, it was good.
01:11:01It was good.
01:11:02Well done.
01:11:05And Caitlin, it was great to see you out there killing it too.
01:11:08All right, I'm giving you the love.
01:11:10Head on up to Julianne in the skybox.
01:11:12Let's go, let's go.
01:11:13It wouldn't be a party without the best musicians in the business.
01:11:17Our band, our singers, and our music director.
01:11:20It's Ray 2 live.
01:11:22Happy 20th birthday, Ray.
01:11:25Julianne.
01:11:26And Ray does not like a day over 19, Alfonso.
01:11:30Get over here with those abs, Andy.
01:11:33Oh, come on.
01:11:34Get in there.
01:11:35All right, Dylan, Rumer first of all.
01:11:37How did it feel to dance with the iconic Rumer?
01:11:40Oh, she, she picked up right where she left off.
01:11:42Like, it was so, she learned it so much faster than I would have.
01:11:45It was insane.
01:11:46No, you're amazing.
01:11:47And Andy, what, how do you think America is going to react to your sexy Andy abs?
01:11:54I think it's going to sell a lot of t-shirts.
01:11:56Yes.
01:11:57And it was so good to see you out there.
01:11:59You absolutely crushed it.
01:12:00Daniela, how hard is it on the sidelines?
01:12:05I love it because I literally am like a proud mom standing on the side.
01:12:11I was so proud tonight.
01:12:12Like, it made me want to cry, honestly.
01:12:14Amazing.
01:12:15All right.
01:12:16Well, Bruno, which couple gets the judges' bonus points?
01:12:19Well, the winner of the relay dance is Dylan and Rumer.
01:12:26All right, so that means that Dylan and Daniela will have two bonus points added to their scores for the night.
01:12:34Of course, each couple wants votes from you.
01:12:37Voting closes shortly after the final competitive dance.
01:12:40Alfonso.
01:12:41All right, thanks, Julianne.
01:12:42There's one more relay dance to go before tonight's elimination.
01:12:46Robert and Whitney and Alex and Val will vie for the bonus points with their returning champions next live.
01:13:04Welcome back to our 20th birthday party.
01:13:08Here are the couples in the final relay dance.
01:13:11It's Robert and Whitney versus Alex and Val.
01:13:15And replacing those pros are the champions of season 32 and season 33,
01:13:23Marvel star Xochitl Gomez and bachelor star Joey Gratidae.
01:13:27All right, let's see our final couples in training.
01:13:32You want to see who your dance partner is?
01:13:37So badly.
01:13:41She brings so much energy.
01:13:44It's been like two years.
01:13:45Two years.
01:13:46I'm a little rusty.
01:13:47I'm nervous.
01:13:48Let's go!
01:13:51This guy just won't leave.
01:13:52Joey was just on last season, so he's pretty fresh off the dance floor.
01:13:56This is going to be a good partnership.
01:13:58Jive!
01:13:59Yeah!
01:14:00Dance With Me Tonight by Olly Merz.
01:14:02I've never danced a jive before.
01:14:04Oh!
01:14:05I did a backflip.
01:14:06Do you want to flip me?
01:14:07I'm willing to be flicked.
01:14:08I'm ready.
01:14:09All right.
01:14:10Robert Irwin with Xochitl Gomez.
01:14:12Your old partner.
01:14:14Alex Irwin and Joey Gratidae.
01:14:17Girl, we got to bring it.
01:14:18Yeah, we got to bring it.
01:14:19Down up.
01:14:20Down up.
01:14:21The advantage that we have is 100% energy.
01:14:26Oh!
01:14:27Down.
01:14:28Toss.
01:14:29How does your foot not hit me in the face?
01:14:30It won't.
01:14:31I am willing to take whatever risk.
01:14:33Here we go.
01:14:36Oh!
01:14:37Did he hit your face?
01:14:38A little.
01:14:39She'll survive.
01:14:40Four, five, a six.
01:14:41Yes.
01:14:42Good, good, good.
01:14:43I hope to never be the reason that Robert does not win.
01:14:48That would suck.
01:14:50Here, there.
01:14:51I want Alex and Val to get into the semifinals.
01:14:52You guys look great together.
01:14:53I just need to make sure I stop hitting Alex in the face.
01:14:58Ow!
01:14:59You okay?
01:15:00This is the last dance before the semifinals,
01:15:02so I want to prove I can stand on my own and do it without Val.
01:15:07I don't like that.
01:15:08I don't want to keep doing that.
01:15:10This is our ticket to the semifinals.
01:15:11All right, Robert.
01:15:12We get it.
01:15:13We have no other option but to get this right.
01:15:15Oh!
01:15:16Oh!
01:15:17I...
01:15:18Are you okay?
01:15:19Yep.
01:15:20I'm fine.
01:15:21There's just, like, blood dripping down my throat.
01:15:24Dancing the Jive Relay.
01:15:26It's Robert Irwin and Xochie Gomez versus Alex Earl and Joey Grazadell.
01:15:30Joey Grazadell.
01:15:31The name is Ali.
01:15:32Nice to meet you.
01:15:33Can I tell you, baby?
01:15:34Look around.
01:15:35There's a whole lot of pretty ladies.
01:15:36But not like you.
01:15:37You shine so bright.
01:15:38Yeah.
01:15:39I was wondering if you and me could spend a minute on the floor up and close getting lost in it.
01:15:46I won't give up without a fight.
01:15:49I just want to.
01:15:50Maybe.
01:15:51I just want you to dance with me tonight.
01:15:52Come on.
01:15:53We could spend a minute on the floor, up and close, getting lost in it.
01:15:57I won't give up without a fight.
01:16:02I just want to, ooh, ooh, ooh, baby.
01:16:08I just want you to dance with me tonight.
01:16:14Come on.
01:16:15Getting sweaty, hot and heavy in the crowd now.
01:16:18Loosen up and let your hands go downtown.
01:16:20Go with it, girl.
01:16:22Yeah, just close your eyes.
01:16:24Yeah.
01:16:26Feel the music running through your body.
01:16:30Looking at you, I can tell you want me.
01:16:32Don't stop, keep going till the morning light.
01:16:37I just want to, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, baby.
01:16:43I just want you to dance with me tonight.
01:16:47Everybody, everybody, come on now.
01:16:50I just want you to dance with me tonight.
01:16:56Yeah.
01:16:56I just want you to dance with me tonight.
01:16:59Yeah.
01:16:59Yes, Robert and Xochitl and Alex and Joey with a dive relay.
01:17:09Wow, the pros are in here.
01:17:11That was the final dance.
01:17:13Voting will be closing soon.
01:17:15Okay, you guys.
01:17:17Wow.
01:17:18Bruno, I'm sorry I have to do it, but I have to say the standard this season is outstanding.
01:17:24This is not really like watching F1, Ferrari versus McLaren, because everything you did was very good in very different ways.
01:17:35I cannot fault anything.
01:17:37It's purely a question of taste, really, because what you did was brilliant.
01:17:43Absolutely.
01:17:44Absolutely.
01:17:45Carrie Ann.
01:17:46Okay, you know what?
01:17:47Does anyone else love this challenge?
01:17:49Oh, yeah.
01:17:50I love seeing you guys, like the little birdies floating the nest and on your own doing well.
01:17:56You both did really good.
01:17:57Sochi, you look so serious.
01:17:59I'm just like, I'm gonna kiss someone else.
01:18:01You both did great.
01:18:02This is a really hard one, especially because it's boy and girl opposite.
01:18:05And yeah, it's hard to compare.
01:18:07So we'll see.
01:18:08Yeah, yeah.
01:18:09That's called a champion stare right there.
01:18:11It was a champion stare.
01:18:12Derek.
01:18:13Well, first of all, I love the irony of the fact that Val trained both of these ladies.
01:18:17I think it's incredible.
01:18:18You did a great job, Val.
01:18:19Well done, Val.
01:18:20You did a great job.
01:18:21He's gonna win.
01:18:22He doesn't win.
01:18:23Well done.
01:18:24Um, echoing what they said.
01:18:26It was amazing.
01:18:27By the way, Robert and Sochi, the chemistry?
01:18:29Excuse me.
01:18:30Uh, yeah.
01:18:31Excuse me.
01:18:32Oh, okay.
01:18:33It was so wonderful.
01:18:34It was so pure.
01:18:35It was so fun.
01:18:36Joyful Alex and Joey.
01:18:38This is a hard one, guys.
01:18:39Oh, yeah.
01:18:40I have no idea.
01:18:41All right, Tom.
01:18:42All right, you guys were great.
01:18:43But in my last comments as a judge, I wanna talk to the network.
01:18:47This show is setting ratings records again.
01:18:50So next season, bring back the results show.
01:18:52Yeah!
01:18:53Let the whole country vote!
01:18:56Let everyone vote!
01:18:57Let everybody vote!
01:18:58That's the man who likes to vote.
01:19:00All right, y'all, head on up to the skybox with Juliet for your scores.
01:19:05As our nation observes Veteran Day, we wanna give our sincere thanks to all those past and present
01:19:12who have sacrificed so much for our freedoms.
01:19:15We appreciate your service.
01:19:17Julianne.
01:19:18Thanks, Alfonso, and thank you, veterans.
01:19:21Wow, wow, wow!
01:19:23Come on up here!
01:19:25All right, let's start with Alex.
01:19:28How different was it dancing with Joey versus Val?
01:19:31I mean, it was a little different at first.
01:19:34Definitely got a few punches to the face.
01:19:37But it was great.
01:19:39Hi.
01:19:40And, yeah, I mean, it's crazy.
01:19:42Joey looking for the Ops.
01:19:43Joey looking for the Ops this week.
01:19:44It is crazy.
01:19:45I didn't mean to hit her in the face, okay?
01:19:46I didn't mean to.
01:19:47I'm sorry.
01:19:48I think it turned out great.
01:19:49It was great.
01:19:50It was worth it.
01:19:51But, seriously, I feel like Val really has taught me so much this season and really prepared me to go out there and, like, know what I should or shouldn't be doing.
01:19:59So it was weird, but it felt good.
01:20:01It felt good.
01:20:02And, Robert, you know Sochi was Val's partner.
01:20:04So did this bring out, like, some competition knowing that you were up against Alex?
01:20:09It was wild.
01:20:10Like, it's really crazy.
01:20:11But, honestly, we just had too much fun in rehearsal.
01:20:14It was, I mean, I kind of felt bad.
01:20:16Whitney, you had to.
01:20:17I know.
01:20:18You really had your work cut out for you.
01:20:19I've never felt bad.
01:20:20I love it.
01:20:21Well, you know what?
01:20:22Let's get to it.
01:20:23Carrie-Ann, which couple gets the judges' points tonight?
01:20:25Okay, well, I honestly think this one was the toughest one to decide.
01:20:29So the winner of the relay dance is...
01:20:34Robert and Sochi!
01:20:36So that means that Robert and Whitney will have two funnest points added to their first-round scores.
01:20:42All of our couples still need votes from you to dance in the semifinals.
01:20:45Alpanzo.
01:20:46Wow.
01:20:47Thanks, Julianne.
01:20:48Let's take a look at the final leaderboard with the bonus points added in.
01:20:51At the top, it's a three-way tie with Dylan and Daniela, Robert and Whitney.
01:20:55Whitney and Mark with 42.
01:20:57And at the bottom, it's Andy and Emma with 29.
01:21:00Now, here are all the voting details for all of our couples.
01:21:03Complete voting information can be found on ABC.com.
01:21:06Even with the bonus points, no one is guaranteed a place in the semifinals.
01:21:10There are only two weeks left in the competition, and your votes mean the most ever.
01:21:17We will combine the judges' scores with your votes and reveal who is going to the semifinals and who is not when we come back live.
01:21:25Welcome back.
01:21:26Okay, you at home gave us the best birthday present ever.
01:21:44Tonight, we received the most votes ever.
01:21:47Yes, thank you.
01:21:51Voting is now closed, and here are the results.
01:21:55Good luck to all of you.

01:22:48And in no particular order, the next couple who is dancing in the semifinals are...
01:22:54The next couple who has made it to the semifinals is...
01:23:01Robert and Whitney!
01:23:04Well, not necessarily the bottom three.
01:23:06Two of these remaining couples are safe.
01:23:08The other had the lowest combined total of judges' scores and viewer votes from tonight and will be leaving right now.
01:23:13It's time for the final result.
01:23:16Elaine and Alan.
01:23:20Andy and Emma.
01:23:22Jordan and Ezra.
01:23:24Based on the combination of the judges' scores and viewer votes, the couple going home is...
01:23:28Andy and Emma.

01:23:43Come on down.
01:23:44Come on down.
01:23:45Come on down.
01:23:46The People's Princess!
01:23:47Yes!
01:23:48The People's Princess!
01:23:49Andy, what has this competition meant to you?
01:23:54I've said it.
01:23:55I've said it a bunch.
01:23:57It's changed my life.
01:23:59I'm a different person because of this show and because of this woman right here.
01:24:04None of this would have happened without her.
01:24:07She knew how to use me.
01:24:09We created a thing together.
01:24:11And it was just TikToks and dancing.
01:24:13And, you know, it exploded.
01:24:16It's crazy.
01:24:17So it's been wonderful.
01:24:18And I certainly feel like a winner, so I'm not worried.
01:24:21Absolutely.
01:24:22We love you, Andy.
01:24:23We love you guys.
01:24:24Congratulations.
01:24:25And special thanks to Tom Bergeron.
01:24:27It was wonderful having you back in the ballroom.
01:24:30We love you, Tom.
01:24:31Let's have another hand for Andy and Emma.
