"Things are getting serious - after this episode of Duets, we&amp;#039;ll have our final five and the show goes live next week! So if ever the pressure was high, it&amp;#039;s now. Nobody wants to miss out on America&amp;#039;s votes! The theme for this week&amp;#039;s show is the pretty self-explanatory Movie Night - big songs from big movies. Quddus kicks off proceedings by asking Jennifer Nettles how she&amp;#039;s kept her acts out of the bottom two so far - she says she has talented contestants and there&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;joy&amp;quot; on stage every time. Well, let&amp;#039;s see - she&amp;#039;s up first!  John Glosson John and Jennifer agree that he might not be to Robin&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;taste&amp;quot;, but they won&amp;#039;t let that stop them! They&amp;#039;re going to perform &amp;#039;My Heart Will Go On&amp;#039; - big song - and Jennifer&amp;#039;s just focused on getting him to the live stages for America&amp;#039;s votes. To do that, she wants to capture the &amp;quot;emotional integrity&amp;quot; of the song, while John vows to show his voice (though there&amp;#039;s still time to laugh about Robin during rehearsals!) The good news is, John and Jennifer get a standing ovation! That pleases John - he&amp;#039;s a big fan of Celine! Kelly: Kelly&amp;#039;s also a Dion devotee, but she liked the performance as John brought something different to it as a man. She also praises Jennifer&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;stratospheric notes&amp;quot; and says the pair complement each other really well. She admits she&amp;#039;s run out of positive things to say and jokes: &amp;quot;I can&amp;#039;t stand you!&amp;quot; Robin: Despite his disappointment with John&amp;#039;s dancing last week, Robin praises John for singng from his heart with passion. He says John has a beautiful voice and says it feels like he&amp;#039;s been singing with Jennifer for years. &amp;quot;I wish I could think of anything negative to say,&amp;quot; he adds. He even got involved in the standing ovation! John: John calls the performance &amp;quot;really, really beautiful&amp;quot; and says his namesake&amp;#039;s voice sounds &amp;quot;gorgeous&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;You guys sound great together,&amp;quot; he concludes.  Jordan Meredith Jordan&amp;#039;s parents have come to Wisconsin to visit, but they&amp;#039;re a little nervous about meeting Kelly (and they gush a little about how much of a fan of Kelly their daughter was. Typical mom and dad behavior!) But of course, there still have to be rehearsals - Jordan and Kelly are going to be singing &amp;#039;Take My Breath Away&amp;#039;. Jordan admits it&amp;#039;s weird singing in front of her parents but her mom is thrilled - &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a top of the mountain feeling.&amp;quot; And Kelly&amp;#039;s pleased with Jordan: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s the best she&amp;#039;s ever sounded.&amp;quot; Jordan&amp;#039;s parents are pleased with how her confidence has grown, but how will the other superstars rate it? Robin: Robin says he kind of expects to see Jordan&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;sultry sexiness&amp;quot; from a couple weeks ago. He adds that though she has a lovely voice, he didn&amp;#039;t really get the emotion in her physicality (though it was in her voice) - and gets booed! Quddus asks if Jordan&amp;#039;s ever been in love and she says she has, while Kelly defends her partner by pointing out that some people are &amp;quot;shy&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;internal&amp;quot; about love, which &amp;quot;can be awesome&amp;quot;. Jennifer: Jennifer says it was &amp;quot;great&amp;quot; and praises Jordan for making the song her own, giving it a &amp;quot;country spin&amp;quot;. She acknowledges that there were &amp;quot;a couple pitchy things&amp;quot; but says that it felt like Jordan was the most comfortable in her skin that she&amp;#039;s been in a while. John: John praises the &amp;quot;beautiful arrangement&amp;quot;, saying that Kelly and Jordan&amp;#039;s voices sound &amp;quot;super nice&amp;quot; together. But he points out that Jordan was a little nervous at the beginning and didn&amp;#039;t come in strong. Otherwise, it &amp;quot;felt really good&amp;quot;! Scoreboard update: 1) John, 2) Jordan  Olivia Chisholm Olivia and Robin are obviously keen to avoid a repeat of last week, which saw Olivia drop into the bottom two. What&amp;#039;s more, Olivia thought it was the first time she was &amp;quot;truly confident&amp;quot; on stage with Robin. But Robin&amp;#039;s mostly pleased as long as Olivia keeps fighting each week - plus, he thought she sang with passion and showed heart and soul in the sing-off. Anyway, they&amp;#039;re going to be singing &amp;#039;Staying Alive&amp;#039;, which obviously relates to their situation! Olivia vows to nail the solo - she does not want to be at the bottom of the charts again. And after her performance, she explains she just wanted to sing out instead of holding back. John: John says he felt more &amp;quot;power&amp;quot; from Olivia this time and praises the performance, including the dancing. &amp;quot;Y&amp;#039;all look really good up there together,&amp;quot; he adds. Kelly: Kelly says this is her favourite performance from Olivia so far, adding that she loves how comfortable she was. She adds that she believes Olivia&amp;#039;s time in the bottom two last week just added fuel to her fire! Jennifer: Jennifer praises the song choice and adds that she&amp;#039;s pleased to see Olivia sing an upbeat song - she made it fun and energetic, and it&amp;#039;s one of her favorite performances. Scoreboard update: 1) John, 2) Olivia, 3) Jordan  Bridget Carrington John&amp;#039;s pleased that Bridget got her highest rank yet last week - number two - but he&amp;#039;s also feeling bad that he let down Meleana. The pair are going to be singing &amp;#039;What&amp;#039;s Love Got To Do With It&amp;#039;, and Bridget admits that she can relate to it as she is separated. She decides to use that emotion in her song this week. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s going to be good,&amp;quot; John tells her. &amp;quot;Mind you, that&amp;#039;s what I told Meleana last week too, so you never know!&amp;quot; After the performance, Bridget&amp;#039;s feeling pretty good - she thinks she did Tina Turner &amp;quot;some justice&amp;quot;! Kelly: Kelly&amp;#039;s surprised by John&amp;#039;s vocals on the song, but she praises Bridget too (including her legs!) But she admits that she&amp;#039;s not a huge fan of the song - &amp;quot;It just doesn&amp;#039;t really go anywhere for me... it&amp;#039;s kind of linear&amp;quot; - but she says that wasn&amp;#039;t to do with the pair&amp;#039;s performances. Plus, she was entertained by the duet. Jennifer: Jennifer gives Bridget a &amp;quot;yes, ma&amp;#039;am&amp;quot;! She gives Bridget the highest compliment she can - watching the performance, she forgot she was meant to be judging and was just entertained. Plus, the song was &amp;quot;perfect&amp;quot; for her! Robin: Robin says Bridget always has a kind of &amp;quot;volcanic eruption&amp;quot; - he describes her as amazing, spirited and fearless. In fact, he thinks this was her best performance - &amp;quot;sensual&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;electric&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;You really seem like a superstar tonight,&amp;quot; he adds. Scoreboard update: 1) John, 2) Bridget, 3) Olivia, 4) Jordan  J Rome J Rome might have topped the leaderboard for the fourth week in a row last time, but he&amp;#039;s not letting that get to his head - as he points out, one bad performance this week will change everything. He jokes with Jennifer about John&amp;#039;s apparent unempathetic side, but they also have to focus on rehearsing, because J Rome is taking on a classic this week - &amp;#039;I Will Always Love You&amp;#039;. He&amp;#039;s thrilled as Whitney Houston was his idol, but he&amp;#039;s also nervous - he has to &amp;quot;nail&amp;quot; it and some of the notes are super high. Even Jennifer&amp;#039;s saying that the bar&amp;#039;s been set really high. Luckily, the duo knock it out of the park and get a standing ovation! &amp;quot;This is the highlight, the biggest moment of my life,&amp;quot; J Rome says. Kelly: Kelly&amp;#039;s so desperate to comment that she puts her hand up! She says J Rome is &amp;quot;so good&amp;quot; and praises the contestants for pushing themselves with big songs. And she laughs off J Rome&amp;#039;s previous nerves about the big note. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ll shut up now - I love you,&amp;quot; she grins. Robin: Robin says there&amp;#039;s a reason J Rome is number one every week! He adds that watching the performance, he believed that J Rome is in love with Jennifer (oo-er). Robin describes J Rome&amp;#039;s future as &amp;quot;so bright&amp;quot;, saying he&amp;#039;s an amazing performer and a good guy. &amp;quot;Your life and career are unstoppable right now,&amp;quot; he finishes. John: Joking about his ability to empathise, John pretends to become emotional - but he does describe the performance as &amp;quot;awesome&amp;quot;. So not bad for J Rome! Scoreboard update: 1) J Rome, 2) John, 3) Bridget, 4) Olivia, 5) Jordan  Jason Farol Jason was finally out of the bottom two last week, but will he manage to repeat the feat? Kelly&amp;#039;s hoping he will, and to do it they&amp;#039;re going to sing &amp;#039;Come What May&amp;#039; from Moulin Rouge - Kelly thought of Jason singing this since she first heard his voice! In rehearsals, she urges him to commit to the melodies, instead of being hesitant (and then pitchy). Jason vows to do just that, saying that he&amp;#039;ll be fine if he can get over his nerves quickly. Then Kelly makes everyone love her by saying: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m looking forward to Jason really nailing it in front of Jennifer, John and Paul. Paul? Who&amp;#039;s Paul?&amp;quot; Adorable. After the performance, Jason thinks he&amp;#039;s managed to break through his shell a little. Robin: Robin jokes that Jason looks like &amp;quot;a young Hugh Hefner&amp;quot;, but also makes time to praise his voice and personality, saying that if he gets through to the live stages, America will love him. But he does add that he didn&amp;#039;t get to hear Jason&amp;#039;s tone much in that song - he thinks Jason&amp;#039;s better in a higher register. Jennifer: Jennifer says Jason looked great and she could see a different side to him through his performance, adding that he could have potential in musical theater. Still, she points out that there were some pitchy moments (though she does say it was a great performance). John: John also says that Jason looked great - and looked good with Kelly - and he enjoyed the theatricality of it. But he too expresses concern about Jason&amp;#039;s vocals, as the song was mostly too low for him so he couldn&amp;#039;t really shine (Kelly defends it by saying it&amp;#039;s a tenor part).  But now that all of the contestants have performed, it&amp;#039;s time for the final scoreboard:   J Rome  John Glosson  Bridget Carrington  Olivia Chisholm  Jordan Meredith  Jason Farol  Yes, Jordan and Jason are going to have to perform in the showdown (poor Kelly!) Jason takes to the stage first with a performance of &amp;#039;Mamma Knows Best&amp;#039;, followed by Jordan&amp;#039;s rendition of &amp;#039;And I Am Telling You I&amp;#039;m Not Going&amp;#039;. Quddus asks Kelly for her thoughts, but naturally she&amp;#039;s a bit lost for words! Robin: Robin says he&amp;#039;s proud of both of them and reminds them that their careers are just beginning, no matter what happens on the show. He praises Jordan&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;sultry, sexy stuff&amp;quot;, while he says Jason&amp;#039;s growling is really special. He adds that they&amp;#039;ve both grown so much on the show. Jennifer: Jennifer says she&amp;#039;s always &amp;quot;blown away&amp;quot; by the showdown because the contestants can really showcase their vocals. She agrees with Robin that this is just the beginning for them, pointing out that they&amp;#039;re the youngest people on the show and have grown a lot. &amp;quot;I can&amp;#039;t wait to see what both of you do,&amp;quot; she adds. John: John agrees with Jennifer, saying the duo still has so much room to grow. He loves Jason&amp;#039;s spirit and the way he has &amp;quot;so much light&amp;quot; inside of him, while he jokes that Jordan chose the perfect song - &amp;quot;&amp;#039;You&amp;#039;re going to love me, I ain&amp;#039;t going home!&amp;#039;&amp;quot; But, of course, one of them has to go home so the four superstars get marking. Who&amp;#039;s going to be the one missing out on the live stages? It&amp;#039;s... Jordan! She gets very upset but Kelly gives her a big hug and points out that she&amp;#039;s had a huge chance to be on television. Quddus wants to know Jordan&amp;#039;s highlight, and she tearfully replies: &amp;quot;Singing with her.&amp;quot; So that&amp;#039;s that from Jordan, but we now have our top five - and the live performances will begin next week! Get ready... Duets continues Thursday on ABC. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
