He admit that Nigel look pro with the dance and very smooth. He can really dance and whoever look at them right now, would have never thought that they two is actually not a couple at all.
"That's him. He actually pretty good you know. Well, I think both of them is perfectly fit together. But..nah, they both sometimes looks like a cat and dog." Joe also give his opinion.
"Well, times up. My turn now."
"Good luck, man." Andy said.

"You really nail it man!" Alan pat on his shoulder when they're done performing.
Joe just smile happily while holding Akiko's hand.
The third couple went up and performing a song from Meghan Trainor and John Legend, 'Like I'm gonna lose you'.
Both of them had a good voice. They perform a casual dance like they were talking but people can see the gesture and motion they do sync with the lyric.
Yup, all the three couple is a tough compet.i.tor. All of them can dance and sing.
Hazel still look normal like nothing that worried her. While Alan look like he was thinking about how they need to perform to get a loud applause from the audience.
"Why you look so worried?" Hazel ask.
"They all can dance and sing. I'm a bit lack of confidence."
Hazel smile. 'So, he do have something that he can't do.' she thought.
"It's okay. We do this just for fun. I don't know either how to dance and sing. We do what we can, alright?" she calm him down.
Alan nod.
"Okay. Let's do our best." he smile.
"Okay, our last partic.i.p.ant for today contest is…oh, the one I randomly pick earlier. With her groom to-be I a.s.sume. Let's invite the girl to choose the song." the host started.
Alan put the cloth to her eyes gently and wrap it.
"I trust your choice." he said and kiss her cheek lightly.
When she stand in front of the screen, she scroll on the song which is not in duet category.
And when she done picking the song, only then the host noticed the song she choose is not in the duet list. But Hazel informed him that she's okay with the song.
She pick the song from the movie. She look at Alan and blink her eyes a few time.
Alan nod.
They both walk to the stage and they use the bench that Lola use before.
She curled up on the bench and lowered her head as she start singing.
"Born on the wrong side of the ocean~ with all the tides against you~
"You never thought you'd be much good for anyone~
"But that's so far from the truth~
Alan take the cue, he take a sit in front of her and he lifting her face as he start singing too.
"I know there's pain in your heart~
"And you're covered in scars~
"Wish you could see what I do~
"Cause baby, everything you are~
"Is everything I need~ you're everything to me~
"Baby every single part~ is who you're meant to be~
"And you're everything I need~
Her eyes start to redden as she look him in the eyes. All of the audience turns deadly silence in the hall. Like they were watching an emotion movies.
Hazel divert her eyes away and sing again.
"You can say I'm wrong~ you can turn your back against me~"
Alan sing "But I am here to stay~"
Hazel stand up and facing the audience with her almost cry face.
"Like the sea~ he keeps kissing the sh.o.r.eline~
"No matter how many times she pushes him away~"
Alan turn her body to facing him and them both sing together.
"Cause baby, everything you are~
"Is everything I need~ you're everything to me~
"Baby, every single part~ is who you're meant to be~
"Cause you were meant for me~
Hazel wipe her tears that just rolled down while Alan continue to sing.
"And everything happens for a reason~
"It's all a blessing in disguise~
"I used to question who I was~ well now I see~
"The answer is in your eyes~"
He search her eyes and they sang together again. This time, their voice is a bit slower.
"Cause baby, everything you are~
"Is everything I need~ you're everything to me~
"Baby, every single part~ is who you're meant to be~
"Cause you were meant for me~
"And you're everything I need~"
