TLOTD says Brooke took his breath away, and that she became the dance. You know, considering he's dance's Lord, I think he can actual make that happen, turn someone into a dance. Carrie Ann thought it wasn't Brooke's dance. She acknowledges that Brooke still had the musicality, but Carrie Ann could see the pain in Brooke's body. But it was certainly better than Susan Lucci! If Carrie Ann gives her lower than an 8, I'm going to hunt her down and punch Carrie Ann in the face. Bruno agrees that it wasn't Brooke's best dance, considering what they know she can do. Scores for Brooke: 8, 10, 8. TLOTD is just macking on the ladies tonight.

You are the Roger Rabbit. Marry me.

Up next is Cloris. Tom reminds us that Cloris' strong suit is not her dancing. She was entertaining enough last week to have avoided the bottom two! This week they're performing a "vintage" Cha Cha, whatever the hell that means. Cloris is screwing around in rehearsal and really just wants to take a nap. I hear ya, sister. Corky gets fed up, so he brings in George, who has known Cloris since 1953. He was her "once-upon-a-time husband" so I don't understand why Corky thought Cloris would listen to George any more than she does him.

I booked Young Frankenstein and paid my mortgage. Mission accomplished. Goodnight.

In performance, Halloween has come early and Corky is going as Dick Tracy. I would say that makes Cloris Breathless, but she can't match Madonna's moves. Cloris spends the first minute of the dance sitting down, before standing up and dancing a good beat behind Corky. The song is slow and the pair are lacking their usual entertainment value. This can't bode well for Cloris. Aw, if they had pulled off that lift/spin thing, it might have been awesome, but she set up for a move too early. Well she lived through it at least!

Noooo! I pressed the snoooooze!

Bruno says Cloris is the only person in the world who could "sell such nonsense as a Cha Cha Cha." Lol, Cloris is a horrible dancer. TLOTD calls her a legend and inspiration to older people. He's also under strict orders not to say anything bad about Cloris from his father, I guess, the King of the Dance. Carrie Ann is over Cloris and is all, "Yeah, you're old and funny and an inspiration blah, blah, blah." She's over it cause Carrie Ann totally had a girl-crush on Toni Braxton. Scores for Cloris: 5, 5, 5, for a total of 15. Oouch!

Last week Cody and Julianne earned their first 10 of the season and came in one point behind Brooke and Derek. They're determined to beat them one of these weeks, but it looks like it might not be this week as Julianne is struggling through some sort of illness. Cody's all worried about his hips in rehearsal, and while I applaud him for wanting to get the hip movements right, it's still funny to hear a boy ask if his butt is sticking out too much. Am I right, ladies? To get into character, Cody gets a spray tan and paints his hair black. He acts like the spray tan is something new and foreign, but you know he's a regular on Sunset Tan. Cody loves the Olly girls.

I'm sorry but I can't have your baby. You're like, ten.

Thankfully, neither the moustache, nor the ruffled sleeves make it into the final performance by Cody. He keeps his Latin intensity though. Whoa, and he works his hips. At least in the first run. And he's got the chest shake down too. He looks a little goofy at points, but hey, he's committing. I think he does better a the non-Latin, cartoony dances because he's Just. So. White.

Carrie Ann thought it was the most intense Samba she's ever seen. She likes that he's going for technique and thinks he's improving. Bruno disagrees and thought he was too intense - calling it a Paso. Bruno wanted more "Juberance." I want that to be a real word. TLOTD thinks Cody has everything it takes to be a great dancer, but didn't think tonight was his best dance. Backstage we find out that Julianne has to have her appendix removed after this show. Jesus. These pros are fricken workhorses. Don't they have a union? Can't she get an understudy? Oh yes, Edyta is going to come back to dance with Cody until Julianne can come back. Scores for Cody: 8, 8, 7, for a total of 23.

Ouch. Not too hard.

Alright knock it off you two. The country's uncomfortable.
