It is part 2 of Episode 3 of the season 2 rewatch series. Cheryl dives right in on what she calls “Lisa’s breakout dance” of the season with her and Louis’s Jive. Cheryl loved everything about this dance, but her biggest compliment is how Louis and Lisa shine as his partner, a lesson the pros have to learn on this show and it is not always easy. There was a shift in mood on the show when the packages started to roll out between Tony and Stacey. She learned that her 42” legs finally have a disadvantage as the tension grew between the two of them and it got heated when she was not performing up to Tony’s standards. Master P & Ashley took off to the basketball court to see if his moves there could translate into his moves on the dance floor, but at the end of the day Len suggested that it was time for him and the show to part ways. The big question is do you remember if the audience listened? Lastly it was time to see if it was a true lie or not on whether Tia would be able to handle the tango with Maks, but they came through with flying colors in one of Cheryl’s favorite dances of the week.
