So You Think You Can Dance

Top 12 (1x7)

: 31, 2005

At the beginning of the episode, 2 dancers from last week are cut. At that point, the competition continues in the same format as last week, except the males pick the partner and the females pick the style. This week, Mia, Brian, Mary and Nigel are the judges. Dan will take part in the choreography. The 12 dancers complete round 1 in the following pairs: Blake and Ashle (Rock 'n Roll), Artem and Melissa (Paso Doble), Allan and Melody (Lyrical), Ryan and Snow (Hip Hop), Jamille and Destini (Viennese Waltz), and Nick and Kamilah (Disco). This week, only 2 couples are put up for elimination instead of 3. In round 2, the couples put up for elimination danced as individuals and the audience voting was opened.
