00:00Congratulations. What a pairing. How have rehearsals been going so far?

00:04We haven't started actual dance rehearsals.

00:08No, we've just been talking and building chemistry and stuff like that and then

00:12this weekend and next week we're going to start the process

00:16of the mirror ball. Is that the process? No dancing

00:20for the first two rehearsals? No, that's definitely not the process.

00:24It's not voluntary. It didn't happen like it was supposed

00:28to happen. It was my fault. See what happened was I was trying to work on

00:32my dance moves and I tripped up over my foot, hit the ground, hurt my head

00:36so I had to wait a couple days to get my bearings back right

00:40so I could get back out here and dance. He's just being a good dad

00:44and he's going to be there for his kids on the weekend and then he flies back over.

00:48That's true. My son just started playing football.

00:52My daughter's now playing volleyball so I didn't want to miss their first couple of games

00:56and then I go to their games and then head out to work.

01:00For sure. Okay, well once you guys get to work

01:02how would you rate your dance skills on a scale

01:04from one to ten?

01:08I'm going to go with about an eight.

01:10Eight? Yeah.

01:12Daniella's face says otherwise.

01:16What would you rate?

01:18I can't even tell you. I haven't seen them yet.

01:20I haven't seen them yet.

01:22Listen you, you have a lot to live up to because you gave yourself an eight.

01:24Eight? Like club dancing.

01:28Like I got a nice one, two step.

01:32Like I can hit, I can hit there.

01:34I got the church hand and I got the legs going. I'm good.

01:42That's all you need right here.

01:44Alright Danie, what can we do with that?

01:46I can do a lot with that. A lot.

01:48I promise you.

01:50Is there any advice that you gave him about being a part of this journey in general?

01:54Yeah, honestly everything happens so fast that I truly want to just enjoy week by week.

01:59I don't want to think of the final, I don't want to think of the mirror ball.

02:02I just want to have a good time every week.

02:04Yes, that's it.

02:06You got to have the most fun as possible but also work extremely hard

02:12and I think you have two of the hardest working dancers

02:16in the history of Dancing with the Stars together.

02:20There you go, there you go.

02:22We're going to go crazy.

02:24And actually we got to go right now because we got to get ready to dance.

02:26You ready to get in?

02:28We got to go dance right now.

02:30Listen, I know the athletes tend to do pretty well this season

02:32so how do you think that your skills are going to carry over?

02:34Hopefully carry over is great.

02:38I want to trust her, trust her lead, follow her lead, and go from there.

02:44And hopefully at the end it will bring us that mirror ball.

02:48Yeah.

02:49Well, we're rooting for you guys so don't let us know

02:51because you gave yourself an eight, remember.

02:53I did.

02:54At the end of the season I hope I'll be able to give myself a ten.

02:57That's the goal, eight to ten.

03:00That's the goal, eight.

03:01Oh yeah!

03:02Yeah.

03:03Okay so now we're going to take a look.

03:05I think we're going to take a look.

03:07Okay.

03:10If you're going to take a look at me, yes?

03:12Bye.

03:14Okay.

03:15I'll get a look.

03:16Bye.

03:17Bye.

03:18Bye.
