On the April 25 episode of Dancing with the Stars,

Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy danced the Samba to Britney Spears Baby One More Time.

In rehearsal, Maks told Kirstie she has a bad pattern of panicking and needs to convince herself that she has the core of the dance down and forget the minuscule things she may not get. On the dance floor, Kirstie looked relaxed and seemed to be having a ball. She was back to week one form when we all fell in love with her.

Len Goodman (9): “This season has been a series of mishaps…You’ve never fulfilled the potential I saw week one…until today! You had rhythm. Great choreography. Great job. Right up my alley.”

Bruno Tonioli (9): “Oh yes, hit me, curse me one more time. You delivered the smoothest and most natural Brazilian north of Rio. Your wiggly bum sent shock ways through the airways.”

Carrie Ann Inaba (8): “Just like Britney, you’re back. And I am so glad to see because week one you commanded the dance floor…This is the way I want to see you dance because I want to see you in the finals.”
