Kaitlin and Jean-Luc got 3rd place - 62 something…. I fell off after I realized Laurence and Nikolaj beat them.  

I’m not mad - F/S actually had the better skate and I loved their program.  And Nikolaj’s - erm - open shirt.  Ahem.  Not so much on Laurence’s gloves.  

But yeah, H/B had a number of issues, the most noticeable being that lift - which they really seemed to struggle with.  That’s something they definitely need to work on.  And as much as I’m not a fan of their first song (how many times are we going to hear that this season?) I loved their R&B selection and Kaitlin’s costume.  

Also, I’m wondering if they got a deduction for Jean-Luc’s flapping shirt.  Because it kept distracting me…  he needs to figure something else out there.
