First there was the Paso vs. Tango team competition, in which a backstage power struggle ensued between team coaches Karina Smirnoff and Lacey Schwimmer.

Elsewhere, a different kind of heat simmered between dancing partners Joanna Krupa and Derek Hough, who were featured in a cute vignette showing Hough daydreaming about romancing his model partner on the beach, only to wake up to be smooching his own image in the mirror.

After the skit, Krupa -- who will be appearing nude in Playboy Nov. 13 -- said she liked Hough's package (btw – “package” is a broadcasting term for a pre-taped segment).
