Episode Report Card Kim: B | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT It's a Man's Man's Man's World
By Kim | Season 12 | Episode 13 | Aired on 05.03.2011
Stupid montage where the couples sit down face-to-face to talk about what to do to make it in the finals. Chelsie tells Romeo that he needs to make dancing a priority. Karina wants Ralph to be sexier. Kym wants Hines to get out of his head. Mark wants Chelsea to stay in the game mentally. On the flip side, Kendra wants Louis to push her more, and Kirstie wants more validation from Maks. Chelsea loves that Mark keeps it fun. Hines admits that he's really challenged by Kym's choreography. Maks tells Kirstie that her strength is her personality. Karina loves how Ralph creates a story in his dance. Kym thinks Hines is a natural dancer. The pros all talk about how hard it will get in the next few weeks. It would be awesome if one of the stars was like, "Fuck this noise. I'm out." But of course, no one does.
James Blunt is on hand to sing his new single. Maks's brother is dancing with his partner. I don't enjoy watching Val dance. It's like alternate Maks. I find that to be true with most celebrity brothers. Patrick Swayze's brother looks weird. Any time you see a celebrity brother, they look like they've been through the wringer or something.
Romeo was told he was off-beat, but he didn't get discouraged. Kendra felt like she didn't want this whole thing to end. Her attitude has gotten a LOT better. So she'll probably go home tonight. Let's find out if she's still in jeopardy. Romeo and Chelsie are safe, and seem really shocked that they are. Kendra and Louis are still in jeopardy, though. Tom ribs Romeo for thinking he was going home.
So it's down to Chelsea and Mark, Kirstie and Maks, or Kendra and Louis. Len has some advice for everyone. He wants consistency from Kirstie. He compliments Kendra on blooming late, and he thinks Chelsea is one of the most talented girls on the show. I just noticed that all of the people in jeopardy are women. Well, Kirstie and Maks are safe. I'm glad. I don't love her, but she is interesting to watch. Tom points out that these aren't necessarily the bottom two, as always, so it's meaningless until we find out who's going home. And the couple going home is Kendra and Louis. I actually almost feel bad for Kendra. She's going to be one of those who vows to make dancing a part of her life going forward but will ditch it in two weeks. Kendra thanks Louis and her family, and says she's going back to being a mom. Louis tells Kendra that it was an awesome journey and he's glad they are finishing on a high. Kendra goes out onto the floor to do some last-minute stripper moves. That, I won't miss.
