Elimination: 
                                  
This was a lackluster show. I hate dance-offs, and I always have. I hate when they give immunity, and I always have. So, needless to say, I was not pleased when they brought both of these elements back this week. This was the (second) worst show thus far (not counting those god-awful two hour results shows).
Grade: B-
Score: 7.5/10
