“If we don’t see Wynne or Pete at the dance next week, I’ll start.”
‘I need Pete to be the dance next week. We’re losing decent dancers and he’s just not there.
‘#strictly pete shayne and wynne were the weakest!’
‘Pete should have gone home this week, it was atrocious. Yes, I have read the spoiler and I am very angry. The other couple should NEVER have been around the dance.
‘Poor Sam didn’t deserve to go. Pete did it. Shirley didn’t judge him fairly, he doesn’t have all the series. She needs the firing. She has ruined this show by the way she chose her favorites. Len never did.
‘Sam and Montel should never have been in the dance contest. There are some mediocre men who should have been there. Very unfair since both were what it was strictly about. I loved watching them both progress.

Nikita said: “I’m in awe of this girl.” Sometimes they say it’s about the journey, not the destination, but for me it’s about the company.
“Sam, you are the most wonderful company I could have ever had.”

‘I’m sorry what!! My first question is why weren’t any of the couples at the dance??!! And second, why are the worst still there?’
‘What the hell did I just see??? To begin with, the two couples at the dance were not supposed to be at the dance.
