  • Standing Ovation!

  • Len Goodman: Len was completely knocked out by the choreography but wasn't impressed with the sensuality of the dance (BOOOOOOO) Bruno and Carrie Ann totally disagree and shout it out to the world.

  • Bruno: That was more than a Tango! That was the tale of a fatal beauty. Enticing strangers with the promise of forbidden pleasure. A terrific Tango and terrific choreography!

This week they are doing the Lindy Hop, which is all about having fun and tricks. Juliane wants him to flip over but he is very nervous and gives her a hard time. when he was a kid playing basketball he jumped in the air and landed on his head and now he has a fear of landing on his head. Julianne decides to remove the flip and add something else that shows his personality and not just a trick.

Edyta has a hard time getting into the character and learning the dance so she brings her husband Alex in to show Lawrence the way it is supposed to be done.
