Throughout the competition, Jen and Jan built a fanbase that rallied hard for them on social media and the fans labeled them the “dark-horses” of the season.
This Week’s Theme and Performance Recap
The theme for Halloween this week challenged each couple to enhance their routines with spooky storytelling. Jen and Jan created a dramatic Tango inspired by a ghostly “love” story complete with dark, eerie lighting and detailed costumes. Their choreography created contrasting elements of strong, sharp movements and softer, transitioning movements into the forms of dance, which was perfectly suited for the evening’s spooky spirit.
Jen and Jan added to the tall tale feeling for their performance when the audience personally connected with the performance. The audience clapped along to the haunting song, cheered to the end of their idea, and enjoyed watching them end their routine in a strong, elevated position.

Judges’ Reactions and Scores
When the music stopped, every person in the room looked at the judges’ table. Carrie Ann Inaba complimented their storytelling and chemistry, saying that Jen’s expressions matched the mood of the piece, which was haunting.

Bruno Tonioli, ever exuberant, called it, “hauntingly beautiful but a little uneven.” Their score left them sitting in a decent place in the middle of the leaderboard, but this meant their fate was left in pretty much the hands of the fans.
