- What's up y'all!
We've got Derek Hough here.
We've got Leslie Grace from "In The Heights" there.
That's right, they're stretching it out.
You want to know why?
Because Derek is a legendary dancer and Leslie killed it
in her new musical and I'm just, well,
amazing at everything.
So it's time for a game we're calling
"Dance Battle Double Down."
(jazzy dance music)
- [Announcer] (singsong) Dance Battle Double Down
- Get it Jessie!
You know what Jessie, I think we're gonna need
another person over here and I pick you.
- You want that?
- [Kelly] Yes, I want that.
- Hold on, let me take my belt off.
- [Kelly] Oh, are you getting,
- Oh, okay!
- [Kelly] Oh, I see.
- [Kelly] You gonna take your earrings off too?
What's happening?
- [Jessie] I'm gonna take my shoes off too.
- [Kelly] Are we coming to play, Jessie?
- Let's go, Clarkson.
- [Kelly] All right, it's going to be Jessie
(audience clapping)
- It's gonna be,
- It's gonna be Jessie and Leslie
versus the winners, Derek and me.
Now we just need a host.
So, God, are you there lord?
- [God] Hey Kelly, I was just tending to my garden.
You like apples?
I'm just playing.
(group laughs)
- [God] How you doing, girl, how you doing?
- I am good.
Still a little mad that I'm not invited in,
but thanks for helping with the game.
So could you tell us how it works?
- [God] Well Kelly, this is a dance game, so I'm going
to read a question and the answer to that question
will be the name of a dance.
- Okay.
- [God] Now if you know the dance, be the first to jump up
on that platform and give the answer.
Now if you're right, you'll have the chance
to double down for another point by doing the dance
for my own amusement.
Now, we're going to play in rounds.
Kelly against Jessie and Derek against Leslie.
Now if Kelly wins, if you win Kelly, the right side
of our house seats will get a cool prize, but if not,
the left side will win.
Okay, so let's get Kelly and Jessie up there first.
C'mon now.
- Oh, wait, it's us first? Oh,
- [God] That's right, that's right.
- Yes, Clarkson.
- Let's do it, let's do it.

Now, for double the points, can you do the dance?
Let's get some music.

(instrumental to "It's Not Unusual" by Tom Jones)
- It's not unusual to be loved by anyone, bah nah nah nah.
- I said it first!
(Kelly and Jessie yelling)
- [Kelly] I didn't know if I was supposed to get,
(group chattering)
- [God] All right, all right now
- No I said Carlton, I said Carlton for the thing,
but then I was like, wait, is it called the Carlton?
- All right, Leslie.
- [God] All right that's enough now.
C'mon now, Derek and Leslie, it's your turn, get up there.

- [Jessie] What does that mean God?
- [God] I'ma say it's a dance off, ladies and gentlemen.
- Oh ho ho.
- [God] We have ourselves a tie, so it's a dance off.
- Are you ready for my moves? Are you ready for my moves?
- Do we need support?
- Am I freaking out because
I'm kinda remembering how to do this?
All right, 'Kay.

Here we go now, last question.

hard on a treadmill, what would you call him?
- [Kelly] (whispering) It's the running man, running man.
- [God] You see someone,
(platform pings)
- Now, now hold on, this is worth triple, by the way.
I'm throwing in a wrench here.
- Please know it, please know it, please!

- Is it the Running Man?
- Yes!
- [God] It is the Running Man!
- Of course it is.

- Woo!
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- Boo, boo.

That means Kelly and Derek are the big winners
along with the right side of the audience, but Kelly,

to everybody, so just go ahead,
