Dancing With the Stars 2016 Famous Dances Week Results: Doug Flutie and Karina Smirnoff Eliminated

Doug's work ethic also reiterated what Sharna was missing from her partner, Antonio Brown. "[Practicing] 10 hours a week is not enough when everybody else is doing 30," she told Glamour backstage. "We put in more hours this week, and it [showed]. It made it so much easier for me to do my job."

Earlier in the evening, a rehearsal package showed that Antonio was upset that Sharna publicly admitted that Nyle DiMarco and Wanya Morris would probably be the final two. "I don't regret saying that," explained Sharna. "It's my job to know how to motivate Antonio. He had to understand how far away from first place he was because now it’s crunch time. Good dancers are going home, and I needed the fire to be lit underneath him. For him to hear me say, ‘Yeah, we might not win it because these people are pretty much at the top,' ... look at him now! He’s putting in the hours; he’s putting in the time. He’s a better teammate for me, and that’s all I needed from him. So, it’s great. It needed to happen. It’s a necessary evil.”

Another necessary evil is the double elimination that will be taking place next Monday night. "I knew there was one coming," laughed Sharna. "That’s fun. The same week we have double dances!" Jodie Sweetin was equally as nervous when we caught up with her post show. "It’s a little bit nerve-racking, but I felt like our performance tonight was really strong. As long as people vote, I think we should be good.”

It's a miracle Jodie was even able to dance, given the nature of her injuries in rehearsal last week. "It was really weird because nothing left a permanent mark," she said. "I don’t want people to think I’m a big ol' baby, but I was beaten pretty badly. When the ambulance came, I was like, ‘I’m going to walk out to the car.’ They said, ‘No, you have to get [on the gurney].’ I was crying and in pain, but I was like, ‘Let’s just walk!’ I’m super tough like that, but they made me [lie down]. I was like, ‘Even if it’s broken, it’s fine. I’ll walk on it!’ But it doesn’t work that way.”
