Thankfully (hopefully?)
we dont have to endure that again.
Instead, were left with one of the most exciting, up-in-the-air semi-finals inDWTShistory.

This challenge seems appropriate, no?
Since, after tonights double elimination, well be left with just three couples standing.
Things are about to getreal, you guys.
So does Mark, so he wisely chooses Alan as the third member in their little dance triangle.
Erin remembers, too, and she, predictably, just cant let it go.
Lets ignore the tabloid-fodder and focus on the dance.
Marks choreography is so fun, and Brunos right, Paige is the star of this routine.
If Paige doesnt sail into the finals, thats on you, America.
Sharna wants another fierce gal beside her for this fiery argentine tango.
Antonio really seems into this competition, finally.
Take that, Carrie Ann!
Witney is just in time, too.
Wanya and Lindsay could use a little blonde ball of energy after their big props-related stumble last week.
Wanya even cries about it!
After seeing his paso, theres no need for tears.
Wanya is back, you guys.
The girl is so deserving.
She serves face like Ive never seen.
Except for maybe Sharna, but, like we could always use more face in the ballroom.
The light-hearted chemistry follows the trio out onto the dance floor.
First though, a cold shower is in order.
Paige and Marks Argentine tango is… hot.
My only notes were sexxxy and great table work.
Regardless, Carrie Ann and Bruno loved it.
When did this show get so real?
Im supposed to be crying over gorgeous lines and lifts, not real things!
Okay, so I cried over the gorgeous lines and lifts, too.
Carrie Ann admits that Antonio may not be the best dancer left, but his presence electrifies the ballroom.
It was made for him.
Carrie Ann called his feet electric and Len was filled with joy (finally!).
After that unreal routine, after a perfectly-scored night, it would be a travesty to lose Wanya now.
I mean, did you see that celebratory twerk?

Argentine Tango|Unsteady by X Ambassadors
From the beginning of the season, Nyles theme has been fearlessness.
So, whats one more of those impossible things, really?
Peta and Nyle add a blindfolded sequence to their pretty, emotional, but less-than-traditional Argentine tango.
Its effective, and Nyle seems to perform best in these brooding, romantic pieces.
Bruno accurately describes it as mesmerizing, and Carrie Ann is once again astounded by his quality of movement.
It adds a new dimension to Ginger.
Still, something was lacking in her and Vals quickstep.
Sure, Leona Lewis was there, but something seemed off.
), but the whole thing lacks a brightness inherent in the dance style.
And then everyone moves on to the finals!
You get a mirror ball trophy!
You get a mirror ball trophy!
Everybody gets a mirror ball trophy!
Not even Tom wants to announce the results of the double elimination.
In the end, were forced to say good-bye toAntonio andSharnaand…Wanya and Lindsay.
As my astute sister-in-law succinctly put it: DWTF, America?
