On this week's DANCING WITH THE STARS on ABC, Amber Riley and her partner Derek Hough performed the Paso Doble. While Riley was still dealing with knee ache this week, Hough was facing pain of his own, in his back.

"He's pushing through the pain and my fear is that he's making himself worse," said the Glee star before adding, "This dance is really kicking my butt."

Following the performance, Bruno said, "That Paso Doble was like vitage wine, full of depth and flavor and color.

Shouted an enthused Carrie Ann, "You slayed the beast again! You went from hot to cold... you lit this ballroom up!"

Added Len, "You captured the flavor of the dance - every nuance was picked up. You are back in the game!"

The couple received a score of 29 including 10's from Carrie Ann and Len. Added to their score was an additional 30 points for winning the team competition in the second round. Their team, dubbed "Foxing Awesome," danced a crowd-pleasing number to the Youtube viral tune, 'What Does the FOX Say?'. (watch!) They will now advance to next week's round of competition which will feature guest judge Cher!
