And just like that, the Glitter Dome waves its “Byes” to its
Dancing Meteorologist. A stellar Performance overall, this Routine unfortunately suffered
from only one minor flaw - in the form of what appeared to be a Forgetting of
the Dance's Choreography - but was otherwise a fantastic end for this Forecasting Finalist!
Ginger & Val DWTS Season 22, Week 10 - The Finals, Night 02
Fierce Frames, Fluid Lines, and Terrific Musicality could all be
seen within this last Performance for TeamGinandJuice,
enabling it to take its final bow in a most gratifying way!
Ginger & Val DWTS Season 22, Week 10 - The Finals, Night 02
“Well, I remember the first 3 Weeks of Dancing With The Stars, this Season,” noted Head Judge, Len Goodman, following the Dance, “ you got 7,7,7, and I thought, ‘ Ginger Zee will have to Grow or Go!’; and, after that, you’ve Grown and you’ve Flown! … Now, you’ve done something tonight - we’re all Dancers and Ex Dancers – [that] everyone has done, just lost the Routine a little bit; but, I tell you what, Ginger, you are a fantastic Dancer!”

Rumer's dancing was, once
again, so very flawless and Pro-like that it prompted Judge Carrie
Ann Inaba to stand and say, "You are just the real deal! The emotional connection you guys have to each other, to the dance; in my
opinion, they saved the best for last!".
" Listen to me,
Rumer," began Head Judge, Len Goodman, "I am honest, and
people think I've got favorites and things. Listen, it is what it is. You
are as good as anyone that's ever been on Dancing With The Stars. If you don't
win, it's a travesty, ... Val, you've got a Winner there <pointing to
Rumer>, ... Brilliant!".

Ann Inaba exclaimed, "Every time you come out into the
Ballroom, you've done more than dance. You've changed people's' lives ... For
that, I thank you both! Incredible!" A somber Head Judge, Len
Goodman, noted "... Well, you know, you're not always 'the
judges' favorite'; but, constantly and consistently, you've been 'the viewers'
favorite'; and, the thing that I wanna say is, you gave so much to America ... Why
shouldn't America give you the Mirror Ball?!"

incredible. You're just ... <looking for right words > you're
something so special; and, I loved every minute of watching you dance!
