Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

Stupid America! And Nigel agrees.

Oh, god, the room to grow line.

I knew they would cut Amber.

Because books.

Are they going to cut couples every week? It's absurd.

Lindsay should have gone home. In my mind, anyway.

They play a "rough neighborhood" for Brandon, but I am pretty sure he has an undergraduate degree in engineering. [Edit: not that that precludes him being from a rough neighborhood, but that's not where he's at at this point in his life.] I really liked him; classy guy. Not enough of a "room to grow" narrative; he knows who he is (he's 27.)

Also loved the Alvin Ailey routine. That was magnificent.

I think Amber had the best legs on the show. Really stunning legs.

Because books.

I was thinking that, too, during her routine. They somehow didn't look like a dancer's legs, but just like gorgeous, sexy gams.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I thought Amber's solo was the best, but what do I know?

I thought Amber and Brandon's number was the only good one tonight, really. But I also agreed with flea on

Amber loses points for dancing to Lana Del Rey. Faugh.

Hah. Sad, though. Should've cut Limdsay.

Watching with Kat and Bon Bon and bob bob was awesome, again! Sadly another one may not happen for a while.

Overall not an inspiring night, sadly. But I am excited for Step Up this weekend?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And did Cat say they are taking two weeks off for the Olympics?? I call BS.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm pretty sure the next show is 8/15. Boo
