Brittany: Hello and welcome to Dancing with the Stars! I'm Brittany Brannon!
Jennifer: And I am Jennifer Aniston! Well, tonight, our celebrities have paired off with each other to dance either an Argentine Tango or Paso Doble with our third annual Partner Ditch week!
Brittany: We know you’re dying to see who the celebrity couples are, so please welcome our stars!

The celebrity couples come down the stairs in this order: Jodie Foster & Bill Clinton, Christina Applegate & Jeff Bridges, P!nk & Justin Timberlake, Elizabeth Gillies & Jesse Eisenberg, Kelly Rowland & Morgan Freeman, and Katherine Heigl & Matthew Morrison.

Jennifer: These are some really interesting couples!
Brittany: Definitely! Now, some of you may be wondering where Elena, as well as our pros, are for the week.
Jennifer: To answer that, Elena and her fiancé have taken a two week cruise, which Elena should be back from soon! For tonight, we’ll be seeing some past favorites take her spot!
Brittany: As for our pros, who have teamed up accordingly to how their celebrities were paired off, are sitting in the audience. I’m sure they’ll enjoy their prodigies on their own tonight!
Jennifer: This is taking too long! Which dance is up first, Brittany?
Brittany: Hey, hey! Patience, Jen! Haha!The first Partner Ditch dance tonight goes to the man who impressed yet again with a Foxtrot that the judges deemed as his best dance yet, and the woman who earned the second encore of the season last week with a breakthrough Jive. Its actress Katherine Heigl and actor Matthew Morrison!

In the VT, Katherine and Matthew are surprised they are paired together. Matthew loved Katy’s role in Grey’s Anatomy and Katherine thinks vice versa of Matthew. Needless to say, they get along well. Maksim and Joy are excited to plan a Paso Doble together, along with the help of the original dancer.

Voiceover: Dancing the Paso Doble, Katherine Heigl and her partner, Matthew Morrison.

Katherine is in a tiger-print Paso dress, Matthew is in an unbuttoned black dress shirt. The pair dances to “She Wolf” by Shakira. Once finished, they walk to Brittany.

Brittany: Wow! Hot, hot, hot! Now, if you didn’t already guess, the guest judge for this dance will be none other than singer Katy Perry from Season 4! Judges?
Natalie: Wow is right. Katherine is feisty by herself, Matthew is powerful by himself. Put you both together, and what we get is a powerful, feisty, and explosive Paso which I’m sure we all loved!
Katy Perry: This was amazing, you guys! Awesome pairing. Matt really attacked the bullfighter essence of the dance, and from one Katy to another, you were flawless! Great job!
Valerie: Well done guys, a great performance. You both got into character and I adored it, a great start!
Brittany: Great start to the week! Up you go to Jennifer!

The couple runs up to Jennifer.

Jennifer: Amazing, you guys! Let's get the scores.

Will the judges please reveal their scores?

Natalie Sanders: 8
Katy Perry: 9
Valerie Hashburntar: 9

Total: 26

Jennifer: Wow! Amazing first scores! Back to Brittany.

Brittany: Thanks Jennifer! Next up is the man semi-pleased the judges last week with a “love-less” Cha-Cha, and the woman who danced a tender Viennese Waltz only to land in the bottom-two for the second week in a row! Will the please us when they’re put together? Its actress Jodie Foster and Former US President Bill Clinton!

In their VT, Jodie expresses her relief that she is still around, and that she is honored to be dancing with a former president this week. She tells us it feels like one of her highest accomplishments! Bill is amazed he is still around, and is very excited to work with Jodie. Tony and Anna (who worked together for PD Week last season) choreograph an Argentine Tango as the guest judge gives them a few pointers.

Voiceover: Dancing the Argentine Tango, Jodie Foster and her partner, Bill Clinton.

Jodie is wearing a short, black tango dress with her hair down, Bill is in a tuxedo. The pair dances to “Assassin’s Tango” by John Williams. Once finished, they walk to Brittany.

Brittany: Great job, you guys! I’m sure Jodie felt honored throughout! And now, our judge is none other than our most favorite contestant from Season 4, actor Steve Carell! Judges?
Steve Carell: Brittany Brannon! It’s been far too long since we’ve last seen each other! Anyways, Ms. Foster, President Clinton, it’s an honor to judge you guys! I feel flattered you redid one of my performances. I think you both were really good and kept up with one another. Good job!
Natalie: Jodie, you gave us one of your strongest performances here, sadly, President Clinton, I feel that you lacked a good amount of technique, and performance didn’t make up for it. I’m sorry!
Valerie: Very sorry, but I wasn't feeling this. It seemed lackluster and Bill let you down, Jodie.
Brittany: Up you go to Jennifer!

The couple walks up to Jennifer.

Jennifer: Honestly, congratulations on a job well done! Let’s see the scores!

Will the judges please reveal their scores?

Natalie Sanders: 6
Steve Carell: 8
Valerie Hashburntar: 5

Total: 19

Jennifer: Well, for Bill it’s an improvement, but for Jodie it’s a bit of a slip. Let’s hope you can both do better next week! Back to Brittany!

Brittany: Thanks Jen. Next is the man who let finally came out of his comfort zone to deliver a Tango which our judges loved and the girl who is quickly becoming a real contender with her past two dances! Will they make magic when put together? Its actress Elizabeth Gillies and actor Jesse Eisenberg!

In their VT, Elizabeth and Jesse quickly learn that Jesse is a whole decade older than Elizabeth! Jesse admits he is a bit nervous around a girl so much younger, but also admits he loves Liz’s show and is enjoying working with her. Neil is excited to produce his first partner ditch dance with none other than Kym! The guest judge for the dance shows the guys some moves from his dance!

Voiceover: Dancing the Paso Doble, Elizabeth Gillies and her partner, Jesse Eisenberg.

Elizabeth is in a black Paso dress with skirt-cape, Jesse is in a silk black dress shirt. The pair dances to “DJ Got Us Falling In Love Again” by Usher. Once finished, they walk to Brittany.

Brittany: I absolutely loved it! And your guest judge is none other than NFL star, and Season 45 finalist, Daunte Culpepper! Guys, shoot away!
Valerie: Well done, I don't think it was incredible but you are both pushing the boundaries more and I loved it!
Natalie: You guys are so cute together! Haha. Seeing you both get so serious was a real treat! I’m proud of you both
Daunte Culpepper: You guys almost did as well as Kym and I did! But no, really, it was an amazing dance. I loved how you interpreted it from what I did. Great job!
Brittany: Well up you go to Jennifer!

The couple walks up to Jennifer.

Jennifer: Natalie’s right! Age aside, you guys would make a sweet couple! Anyways, let's get the scores.

Will the judges please reveal their scores?

Jennifer: No way! Another 10! Guys, some serious congratulations are in order! Back to Brittany!

Brittany: Thanks Jen! Our next star is the man who came back strong last week with a surprisingly sensual Viennese Waltz and the woman who earned the second 10 of the season from Valerie last week with a Rumba that was deemed ‘perfect’! Will they be interesting when put together? Time to see! Its singer Kelly Rowland and acting legend Morgan Freeman!

In their VT, Kelly is honored to be dancing with Morgan Freeman, citing him as like a father figure to her in some ways. Morgan enjoys working with Kelly, as well! The guest judge stops by and shows them how it’s done while Derek and Edyta team up to choreograph.

Kelly is wearing a small golden see-through dress with gold streaks in her hair, Morgan is wearing a suit with gold tie. The pair dances a 007-themed Argentine Tango to “Goldfinger” by Shirley Bassey. Once finished, they walk to Brittany.

Brittany: Well, since this place is just shining with gold by now, I bet everyone can tell that the guest judge for this dance will be Mr. Suave himself from Season 5, Hayden Christensen! Judges?
Natalie: I did really like your approach to the dance, but to me, you guys were just two very different personalities and two different styles that did not collide in the way in which I had hoped! Sorry.
Hayden Christensen: I actually think it was pretty cool. Morgan Freeman as 007, Kelly as a Bond girl! Great job, guys, it had style!
Valerie: I was worried about this pairing at first, but it really worked! Kelly, you attacked the dance, and Morgan, you acted like a superstar. Another Oscar and Grammy winner!
Brittany: Up you go to Jennifer!

The couple walks up to Jennifer.

Jennifer: That was awesome, you guys! Let's get the scores.

Will the judges please reveal their scores?

Jennifer: Well, it’s still not the lowest score of the night! Back to Brittany.

Brittany: Thanks Jen! Next tonight is the man who started out the season at the top of the leaderboard and only recently slipped from first… into second. He will be dancing with the woman who last week delighted our judges with a shockingly sweet Foxtrot! How will they do together? Its singer Pink and singer and actor Justin Timberlake!

In their VT, P!nk and Justin get along amazingly, they even say they should do a song together. They goof off a lot and become friends over the week! The guest judge is pleased by how the dance is coming along, and Louis and Karina love choreographing the performance!

Voiceover: Dancing the Paso Doble, P!nk and her partner, Justin Timberlake.

P!nk is wearing a red Paso dress with attached leopard-print skirt-cape, Justin is in an unbuttoned red silk dress shirt. The pair dances to “Free Your Mind” by En Vogue. Once finished, they walk to Brittany.

Brittany: So sexy! Now, this dance’s guest judge will be none other than Season 4 runner-up, pop legend, Cher! Let's get the comments.
Cher: You guys were great! It was passionate, intense, and P!nk, you really channeled how I danced it. I liked it.
Natalie: I agree with Cher! Of all of the Partner Ditch dances we’ve seen so far, tonight, this was probably the best! You guys seem to get along the best, and it looked like you were effortlessly in synch! I loved it!
Valerie: WOW! FINALLY! P!nk, I've been waiting for you to break through, and this was it! I didn't think this day would come, but this was INCREDIBLE!
Brittany: Well up you go to Jen!

The couple walks up to Jennifer.

Jennifer: WOW! That just set the bar for sexy. Awesome! Let's get the scores.

Will the judges please reveal their scores?

Jennifer: Wow! Huge improvement for both of you! Back to Brittany!

Brittany: Thanks Jen! Our last individual Partner Ditch dance goes to the man who, last week, admitted he was glad to even make it to Week 3. Now he’s in Week 4, dancing with the woman who last week topped the leaderboard with an elegant Waltz! Let’s see if they will do better than the standard that was just set. Its actress Christina Applegate and actor Jeff Bridges!

In their VT, Christina is happy to get someone as talented in acting as Jeff. Jeff admits he’s pretty psyched to get Christina as his PD partner. The guest judge tries to help the two make an amazing dance while Cheryl and first time Partner Ditch choreographer, Jonathan, prepare!

Voiceover: Dancing the Argentine Tango, Christina Applegate and her partner, Jeff Bridges.

Christina is in a small orange/black dress (which unbuttons throughout the dance) with her hair in a bun, Jeff is in a suit with an orange tie. The pair dances to “Buttons” by Christina’s band, the Pussycat Dolls. Once finished, they walk to Brittany.

Brittany: HOT dress, Christina! I want one! Haha! Let’s see what the judges thought of the dance.
Valerie: I'm a bit lost here. Christina, you were brilliant, Jeff, you were poor. So, it was a bad combination tonight. Sorry!
Cindy Crawford: I love the dress! Great job! I really liked it!
Natalie: I agree with Val, the combination wasn’t the greatest, and sadly it brought you both down. I’m sorry!
Brittany: Wow, some stinky comments! Up you go to Jen!

The couple walks up to Jennifer.

Jennifer: Well, not the best comments, sadly. Let’s get those scores.

Will the judges please reveal their scores?

Jennifer: Aww, near the bottom of the leaderboard! Sorry! Back to Brittany for tonight’s first team dance!

Brittany: Thanks Jen! Next up, we have our first team dance of the season, featuring Elizabeth & Jesse, Katherine & Matthew, and P!nk & Justin! Take a look at how things went!

In the VT, everyone has fun getting to perform a Cha-Cha-Cha previously danced by a former champion! The six pros take time to actually make a story with the dance and hope the judges like it!

Voiceover: Dancing the Cha-Cha-Cha, please welcome three of our couples.

The women are all in small skimpy blue outfits, the men are all wearing unbuttoned blue dress shirts. The pairs dance to “Stacy’s Mom” by Fountains of Wayne. Once finished, they walk to Brittany.

Brittany: Thanks Jen! The final dance tonight goes to the team which will be dancing to a Cha-Cha by another former champion! Let’s see how they all got along!

In the VT, all of the women are having fun getting to work with one another. The men, all very famous, are a bit nervous of dancing in a group so big! The pros hope the celebrities can pull it off!

Voiceover: Dancing the Cha-Cha-Cha, please welcome three of our couples.

The women are in short red dresses with their hair straightened; the men are in red dress shirts with suspenders. The pairs dance to “How You Like Me Now?” by the Heavy. Once finished, they walk to Brittany.

Brittany: That was great. Nice effort everyone! And now, we introduce our reigning champion, actress Julia Roberts! Judges?
Julia Roberts: Haha! I can’t believe I’m seeing my dances being done as team dances. It’s surreal! But, seriously, you all gave a great effort and it was so much fun to watch!
Valerie: This was also brilliant. Jeff, Bill, Jodie: you all did better than before. So well done, it was great.
Natalie: It wasn’t as good as the dance we just saw, but I’m seriously impressed with how close it was. None of you particularly had the highest of scores this week, but I think this team dance seriously helped you all out!

The couples walk up to Jennifer.
