Welcome back to Glitter Gulch!
Let’s check out what happened Monday at the second-happiest place on earth!
Cue: a sad samba to Circle of Life, fromThe Lion King.
ABC
What do you think, Bruno Tonioli?
And like don’t hold anything back.
I actually have never ever see a samba like this one, he said.
You just walked through it.
Samba needs life, bounce, and energy.
She just can’t sleepwalk through a Samba.
I miss the ol' boy.
Throw that enthusiasm for his hunky looks into your Zero to Hero performance to theHerculestune!
Added Hough, Anne, I have a suggestion: In rehearsal, dance the entire routine by yourself.
Don’t cry, princess!
Unfortunately, it wasn’t even remotely there for the judges.
I’m not really head-over-heels with this performance, said Hough.
In the jive, you want your nose over your toes.
That was a very difficult dance… you went with it with focus, added Tonioli.
That wasn’t easy for the rapper.
Judging by that post-dance giggle, he knew it too.
This is your first ballroom dance, offered Hough.
For the first time, we saw a proper slow foxtrot, continued Tonioli.
Now you have to be aware of your shoulders.
What’s so incredible about you two is the way you match each other.
I love that, said Inaba.
When you think of Charleston, you think of the swivels, the footwork, continued Hough.
Now why didn’t you inject more of that into your jive to King of New York, fromNewsies?
I feel like you didn’t feel as comfortable with this routine.
You got ahead of the music, admitted Hough.
You told the story beautifully… but I also agree with Derek.
Your musicality was less than favorable, said Inaba.
You were fluid, you were flowing, said Hough.
The magic of Disney has touched you!
You were a different person on the dance floor.Score:21 out of 30

McLean and Cheryl Burke:Who didn’t enjoy watching the Backstreet Boy having tea with his little princesses?
You are fully committed to every performance.
And honestly your frame was pretty good!
Real men play candlesticks.
You radiate so much joy when you dance.
I almost don’t notice some of those foot fumbles, said Hough.
What is amazing is that you guys have found your balance in the partnership, added Inaba.
Jeannie, you found your pace!
Your frame was fantastic, said Hough, adding, your best performance.
Damn you, Chrishell, for commandeering my wish!
Not that I’d come close to rocking that tiara and gown as good as you.
You aren’t nearly as clumsy as you think, either.
The belle of the ball!
You really look like the ultimate Disney princess, said Tonioli.
Princess Carrie Ann approves of Princess Chrishell.
Best dance of the night, said Inaba.
I was elated watching it.
You are beautiful dancer, such fluidity, so lyrical, added Hough.
His Argentine tango to Angelica, fromPirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, was truly swashbuckling.
Now we are cooking with some hot sauce, that was so good!
I love the embrace, all the footwork, and the character.
He dedicated his rumba danced to Reflection, fromMulan to his family.
You done good, Ma and Pa. That was beautiful, said Hough.
Johnny, well done.

Anne Heche and Carole Baskin were in the bottom two.
Hough and Tonioli saved Heche which sent the cat activist home!
