The uncomfortable exchange came when, during scoring, Banks asked Baskin, "Did you tap into that inner tiger?" only to receive only a slight nod. "Yes?" the host asked again, responding to herself, "Oh yes!" before continuing, "OK we're gonna get your scores."

Making Jokes
There were plenty of jokes flying around Twitter about the two women's interaction as well.
Tyra is gonna ask Carole Baskin if she killed her husband SECONDS after that foxtrot and that’s why it’s good to get Tyra.

Next Week
While there was no elimination during the first week of dances, the scores earned by each pair will be combined with their scores from the judges in week two, as well as the results of America's vote. It's at that point one team will be sent packing. With Baskin and Pashkov earning the lowest score of the night — an 11/30 — if they don't step it up coming into next week, it could very well be them packing their bags. Dancing With the Stars airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
