Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

I like Dimitri, too. His clothes have been impeccable, he should have been in the top 3 in the candy challenge.

I thought for sure the dress for Valerie would be in the top 3. She clearly loved it and it looked great on her!

I liked Valerie's dress, but there was nothing new or interesting about it.

Oh, very cool. God, I can't wait. I loved (most of) the Olympics, but I did not love being deprived of My Shows.

Am I the only one disappointed that we lost Amber in the last cull?

My mom and dad stopped over right as the show was starting -- who are the guest judges?

Thanks, Vortex. It's weirdly offensive to me that they're not making a note of the dancers' names, especially when all the other guest judges know the dancers and the show so well.

Cat's dress is a little ... wild. And I'm not sure how I feel about the weird Heidi braid thing.
