NOTE: My first recap ever on Yuku! Let's see how this works out! Definitely easier!
It starts with a recap of last week's episode along with Cameron's elimination as well as more rehearsals
(show open)
Tom and Samantha introduce us to the semi-finals as the celebs and dancers come down and the judges are shown with the audience (and the Osmond family taking front row.) This week, they choose the dance styles...their favorite ballroom and Latin dance. They also show in the middle of the show a clip of Len's "Master Class" of Latin dancing as he gets off a helicopter and heads to each of the celebs and dancers.

1-800-VOTE4-04 (1-800-868-3404)
They show last weeks dance. They are going to do the mambo and quick step as they work on technique. Jonathan said he will work on tough moves to give more content as Bruno wanted.
FIRST DANCE:
SHE : Turquoise dress
HE : Gray tux, pants, white shirt, white bowtie
SONG : "Good Morning"
DANCE : Quick Step
Len said this is the final and everyone must step it up..she brings joy and entertainment to the show and he congratulates Jonathan on a fantastic quick step. Bruno calls her the wit of Debbie Reynolds and glamour of Ann Miller. Carrie Ann said she was concerned but it was wonderful, a different approach..did not miss ONE step. Backstage Marie said that the strategy was to follow Jonathan's strategy. They joke that the boos after Bruno's score come from her brothers.
For the scores, Carrie Ann revealed a 10, Len revealed a 10, Bruno revealed a 9...29/30
SECOND DANCE:
SHE : Frilled red outfit with an "X" belt
HE : Red sleeveless shirt and pants
SONG : Gualione - Perez Prado and His Orchestra
DANCE : Mambo
Bruno said it was the most dizzingly nightcap mambo he ever seen..great acting, frenetic, lost her footing 5 times but incredible entertainment. Carrie Ann can't believe the wardrobe changes and wanted the pyro..fantastic but missed steps at times. Len said her hips were working and had so much energy and lights up Hollywood.
For the scores, Carrie Ann revealed a 9, Len revealed a 9, Bruno revealed a 9...27/30 TOTAL = 56/60
TONY'S THOUGHTS:
1st Dance - Cute routine and nice moves though maybe it's me but I could've felt they did more though the spin on the floor with Marie was a good touch. It generally was good.
2nd Dance - I thought this was perhaps one of Marie's best dances out there. She definitely had a lot of fun with it. Falling to her brothers laps was hilarious.

FIRST DANCE:
SHE : White dress
HE : White shirt and pants
SONG: "Somebody To Love" - Queen
DANCE : Viennese Waltz
Bruno called it the "Ferrari" of the waltz..sexiest dance he seen. Carrie Ann said that they gave her chills and moved as one and gorgeous, expressive and them some. Len said graceful, great movement, great choreography..absolutely fabulous. Backstage, Mel said all of the girls are supportive.
For the scores, Carrie Ann revealed a 10, Len revealed a 10, Bruno revealed a 10...30/30
SECOND DANCE:

Carrie Ann wondered how you can top perfection..they did it. Len thought she made a blunder with the pasa doble last time and that her expectations are really high....then jokes about the whip that Tom had out there "You Can Whip Me If I Misbehave"....she did fantastic! Bruno calls it "Mel B, Satisfaction Guaranteed"...she is a star. Mel called Mak an amazing teacher and wants to be there for the final.
For the scores, Carrie Ann revealed a 10, Len revealed a 10, Bruno revealed a 10...30/30 TOTAL = 60/60

JENNIE GARTH/DEREK HOUGH
1-800-VOTE4-01 (1-800-868-3401)
They show last week's results. Jennie took her kids to Disneyland and performed live over there with Derek. They are going to perform the cha-cha and tango.
FIRST DANCE:
SHE : Red dress
HE : Black "band" shirt and pants.
SONG : "We Don't Fight Fair"
DANCE : Tango
Carrie Ann said that she fights and battle and is focused in the dance...the only thing missing was the chemistry between them. Len thought that there WAS a chemistry and a vibrance about the dance...passion and energy but this was head and shoulders above last week. Bruno calls her the "red menace" and did an intricate choreography. Jen was nervous backstage..but whatever.
For the scores, Carrie Ann revealed a 9, Len revealed a 10, Bruno revealed a 9..28/30
SECOND DANCE:
SHE : Gold dress
HE : Gold silky shirt and brown pants.
SONG : "Ride Sally Ride"
DANCE : Cha-Cha
Len said week 1...first one out....she has developed as a dancer from the first round...great spins, fantastic. Bruno calls her "yummy Jenny" and has the star power! She earned it! Carrie Ann does the snap finger "work it out!" thing and congratulated her.
For the scores, Carrie Ann revealed a 10, Len revealed a 10, Bruno revealed a 10...30/30 TOTAL = 58/60
TONY'S THOUGHTS:
1st Dance - She still kinda moves a bit stiff and Derek does what he can with it. It was at best so-so.
2nd Dance - This was a better dance on her..she had better moves going this time around especially with the spins.
