The Good, The Bad, and the Broccoli

The next montage is of various hopefuls telling us what they do for their day jobs, and we meet Scott, a biohazardous remediation technician, which means he cleans up accident and murder sites, basically. It's hard for him to find a date when he tells girls what he does for a living, but dance is a way for him to get away from thinking about the brain matter he cleaned up earlier. I'm not sure how to describe his style, but I think basically it's line dancing, and I am not saying that at ALL from any sort of firsthand knowledge and recognition of some of the steps from back, say, in college when my friends and I could hypothetically have frequented a country bar, no siree, not at all. Aha! He confirms that it is in fact country line dancing. That was some brilliant guesswork on my part. The judges love him personally for his awesome attitude and crazy job, but he's not up to snuff with his dancing and he's sent home. The final dancer of the evening is a guy named Chris, a.k.a. Isolock, who is there with his mentor, Shockolock, who is basically a legend in the locking community. I'm a little creeped out by Chris' mime-like outfit of striped shirt and socks with black pants and top hat, but his moves are incredible, and when he puts his head down we see that he's got Nigel's face stuck to the top. Nigel says he's seen better isolations but not in tandem with the locking, and he and Mia both really like his style and how quirky he is, though they are both not sure what other styles he might be able to do. Adam thinks there were little glimmers of other styles in his routine, so he gets sent through to choreography. He and 33 others are there, and Courtney Galliano (season 4) and Jason Glover (season 5) are the ones teaching them their routine. Poor Chris is awful in the partner routine to "Bad Romance" and even drops his partner at the very end (though it's not very far, at least) so he's sent home, but while he seems bummed he admits he didn't have the training and so it was really hard for him. Bye, you crazy mime! Fifteen people we haven't seen yet are all totally stoked to get tickets to Vegas, and that's the end of day one.
