Week 5 Highlights• "Len's Side-by-Side Challenge" has the couples dancing alongside returning pairs of pros for comparison, including favorites Maks Chmerkovskiy, Tony Dovolani, Tristan MacManus, Chelsie Hightower and Anna Trebunksaya.• Zendaya scores the first 10s of the season -- one from Carrie Ann and one from Bruno -- to rack up the highest score so far this year with a 29.• D.L. and Andy tie for the lowest score of the night, earning 18s each.• Maks makes his return with Anna dancing the jive with Jacoby and Karina. Jacoby wows the crowd by jumping over a standing Karina during the number and they bring the crowd to its feet by the end of their dance.• Alexandra dedicates her dance to those in her hometown of Boston who might have been affected by the explosions at the marathon earlier that day. Her dance with Mark is the samba, which they perform alongside Tony Dovolani and troupe dancer Witney Carson.• Since he'd be dancing alongside Tristan MacManus, Sean tries copying everything the pro does during rehearsals, including the way he dresses. The effort results in Sean landing his highest score of the season so far with a 24.• Len praises Kellie by saying she puts the "ooh" in "smooth" when judging her foxtrot, which earns her 9s from all three judges.• D.L. lands 6s across the board from the judges to earn the lowest score of the night, but it's his second-highest score so far (he peaked with a 21 in the previous week).• Brothers Valentin and Maks face off in the Argentine tango, which Valentin has never danced before. Even so, he earns a 29 with Zendaya for it.• Despite his low score, Andy is praised by Carrie Ann ("The best entrance I've ever seen") after ziplining onto the stage dressed as Zorro.
