The Green Mile Part 2: There is a Twist After All

We’re back…

9 p.m. WOW! Can you imagine waiting that long?...

David Leathers Jr. and Eben Franckewitz. That’s just so wrong to send in friends like that…I’m still sure it’s David…David Final Performance: “I Want You Back”…Eben’s FP: “You Are So Beautiful to Me”…Yeah, it’s got to be David…JLo tells David he got rocky after his audition…Eben’s in. WHAT?! I did not see that one coming…Randy tells him to come back…I think Steven had a good point about David’s overconfidence making him go sharp and flat….David is dejected and Eben is jumping up and down behind him…Eben finally catches up and gives him a hug…JLo says, “Glad that sh—‘s over”…David says he’ll definitely be back next year…

Time to see the Top 24 dance for the cameras…Boys first on Tuesday…Wednesday it’s the girls…

And it turns out there really is a twist. The judges felt compelled to add another guy and it’s either Jermaine Jones, Richie Law, Johnny Keyser (who was cut in Vegas) or David Leathers. They’re going to reveal which one live Tuesday. Um, no, I have no idea what that means. I’m guessing that was a decision made after the filming because that announcement looked tacked on…

The show ended with Steven stripping off his clothes and jumping in to the water…

I’ll have more to say after I take care of some other obligations…
