Cat picks up their prop and then wants to know why boys shirts smell so good. I'm guessing because Will was wearing it, if you really must know, Cat. Tabitha tells Will that he can take his shirt back off. Mary Murphy squealingly agrees and the girl judges share a high-five while Napoleon looks uncomfortable in-between them. Tabitha tells Mandy that the shirt was a good call. Tabitha says they like to see him dancing without a shirt because of his nice classically trained lines. Uh huh. That's the reason. Napoleon tries to grab control of the situation and get his wife to remember that he's there too, and says that Will's beautiful leap that went over Jessica's head was amazing. Will's got it in him to go all the way. Agreed. Napoleon gets out his pointer finger and says that Jessica is holding Will back. Yikes. I actually thought -- aside from the odd Joker grin -- that she was passable in this number. Jessica did the moves, but she's not emotionally connecting and has "dead moments." Mary says, "Talent is flame, and genius is fire, and that was fire." Where does she come up with this crap? Then she starts screaming. She thought they were both very passionate. She gives them tickets for the hot tamale train. She says she didn't know that Jessica had it in her. Neither did I. Cat cutely inserts that there is a dress code of no shirts on that train and winks at Will. I love Cat. Nigel asks the crowd who wants to dance with Will. They go wild. "Will, I can tell you that there were almost more girls than guys with their hands up." Will is of course fabulous, but it was a duet and Jessica handled herself well. Apparently, according to Nigel, Jessica and Will had some meltdowns during rehearsal this week (ooh, scandal) but they didn't let it show on stage and that's what matters.
Thayne and Comfort land the smooth waltz by newbie choreographers (again for them, couldn't they have landed Mia?) Edward Simons. They dance to "Hov Arek Sarer Jan," I don't know all that much about waltzing, but Comfort looks amazing and is spinning around in this beautiful light and airy dress and Thayne doesn't drop her, so that's good for me. He, though, has adopted Jessica's Joker grin, which is unsettling.
