Um...interesting music cuts... I'm not sure what to make of them. I think both their delicate skating and costumes fit the second half much better- neither are strong enough for the first part. I'm not even sure why they had that first part.

Ohhhhhhh, it's Romeo and Juliette. Ok, I get it now. Still think they should have gone either full classic or full Baz Lurmann

YES! Thay have gone full early 2000s Russian with their costumes- she's in a blue stained glass dress with chiffon handkerchief skirt and SPARKLES GALORE and he's in a matching shirt with illusion mess cutout long sleeves and blue pants. LOVE IT!

Not the fastest, but they have nice positions on the twizzles and a really cool acrobatic lift. Oh no! They fell on the last lift- those acrobatic entrances got the best of them. Didn't get the last spin in, either. They looked a little tired at the end :(

TRON! Getting into character at tehy take their opening pose. The stiffness I noticed in the SD works in their favor here as the characters are supposed to be a little robotic. Cool opening lift, but I wish she's extend her split just a hair more in the rotational lift.

Awww, we're nearing the end and she looks just about giddy. She's crying! I'm so happy for them! :cheer:

Almost time for Group 2. NBC just finished Ashley's SP, but they have yet to re-air Mirai or Gracie (and they've aired the rest of the top 7) so we might miss part of Group 2.
