"I guess I'm a little surprised," Moseley said after he was eliminated. "My skate partner Brooke Castile, that was an amazing experience and I appreciate how much effort you put in to make me a better skater. I enjoyed spending time with you and you're a great friend."
Castille said Moesley "did such a great job, and he's what this competition is all about. I am so proud of him. He has been the best person to teach!"

A la Dancing With The Stars, Monday's edition had a niche in the form of a group skate, set to Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You.
On the night, Moseley (60/70) and Budig (66/70) scored well above Frankel (50/70), but voters chose the former Real Housewives Of New York star over the Olympic gold medalist.

The season-long chill between judge Johnny Weir and Frankel also thawed a bit, as Weir told Frankel he loved watching her freestyle skating routine.
The season finale of Skating With The Stars airs Tuesday at 8/7c on ABC.
