What BBN said about it

  1. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSix celebrities have now been sent home from Dancing With the Stars, and the latest one left last night.

  2. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorJoining us from a minimum-security prison is Mortimer Ashgrove, inmate forty thousand seven hundred eighteen, self-described ballroom expert.

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorMortimer, the show works on judges' scores and a viewer vote. Why does a sixth elimination sting more than the first five?

  4. Mortimer AshgroveBecause by the sixth week the votes are the only thing standing between a dancer and the truth.

  5. Mortimer AshgroveAllegedly, in a different state, I know a lot about votes.

  6. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWhat kind of vote, exactly?

  7. Mortimer AshgroveA seating chart. Very democratic.

  8. Mortimer AshgroveLook at my scorecard here, it has a tiny trophy on it, and I give every inmate a nine for the cha-cha.

  9. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYou score the cha-cha in a prison?

  10. Mortimer AshgroveTuesdays, in the laundry room. The winner gets extra pudding, and nobody has ever proven how the pudding was decided, allegedly, in two different states.

  11. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorTwo states. So when the audience picks who goes home on the show, you trust it?

  12. Mortimer AshgroveI trust it the way I trusted my lawyer.

  13. Mortimer AshgroveFans should vote early, vote often, and never let anyone near the clipboard, which is my whole point, and I rest my case, allegedly, in a third state.

  14. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA third state.

  15. Mortimer AshgroveVera, the sixth one out is always the one who was too honest. Hire me as a judge and I will keep the clipboard locked.

  16. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYou would be the judge who got locked up over a vote. Who would you send home next, Mortimer?

  17. Mortimer AshgroveThe warden. I did not say that. I said it in a different state.
