In a pre-taped package, Arnold explained that the inspiration behind the dance was the close bond that they've formed throughout the season.
"He truly has become the older brother to me that I always wish I had," Arnold told the DWTS cameras, before she suffered a painful injury while rehearsing a number with her fellow pros the day before the live semifinals episode.

There must have been something in the water at the Dancing With the Stars ballroom on Monday night — and it wasn’t very good.
Even though the ABC reality series has reached its eighth week of competition, when every couple should be making a convincing case for the Mirrorball, most duos seemed to go backwards when it came to technique and attention to detail.
Here’s why it was especially disheartening to see so few couples rise to the occasion on Monday: Even though every season of DWTS is a fun, feel-good affair, it’s more enjoyable when it’s actually competitive.

Victoria Arlen's Dancing With the Stars journey hit a painful bump in the road when she found herself in agony hours before the live show.
During dress rehearsal for Monday's quarterfinals, Arlen and her partner, Val Chmerkovskiy, were practicing their Argentine tango when the former Paralympic athlete suffered a painful spasm in her ribs.
"A spasm is just, like, the worst pain known to man. It's like an extreme form of paralysis," Arlen told the DWTS cameras in a behind-the-scenes look at the frightening incident, which aired before the couple took the stage.
The pain and fear were particularly potent for Arlen, whose participation in this season of the reality dancing competition is nothing short of a miracle.

“You know when you’re fading away, and I just knew,” the Espn host and Dancing with the Stars contestant says in the current issue of People. “I couldn’t communicate, but in my own way I had to say goodbye to my family.”
But just three months after turning 15, Arlen woke up to find she’d regained control of her eyes.

Lindsey Stirling powered through some intense pain on Monday's Dancing With the Stars to deliver a spooky, stunning performance for the season's Halloween Night.
Stirling and her partner Mark Ballas dominated last week's DWTS, earning a perfect score for their Argentine tango and coming in at the top of the leaderboard. However, the violinist paid a significant price for their perfection.
"In last week's dance, in the dress rehearsal, I actually displaced a rib," Stirling revealed during a pretaped package. "Now this week, [I'm] trying to find the balance of taking it easy and yet rehearsing."
For Stirling, taking it easy isn't an option she's interested in.
"I have to do things full out if I'm gonna know what it feels like to do them in the performance, and yet I've got this rib that I feel in pretty much every movement," Stirling explained.

Val Chmerkovskiy can't wait to be a father!
The 31-year-old dancer caught up with Et's Keltie Knight during Dancing With the Stars rehearsals on Thursday, where he dished about starting his own family.
"I don't feel the pressure. I feel excited. I would love to have kids. I can't wait to be a father, had a great father -- still have a great father," the DWTS pro confessed. "I think instinctively, as a man, that's something I want to do as well."
Chmerkovskiy's older brother and fellow Dancing With the Stars pro, Maks Chmerkovsky, became a father for the first time in January -- welcoming son Shai with wife Peta Murgatroyd -- however, Val said he's in no rush.
"I am getting even better with age aesthetically," he added. "I am growing and getting better and better. I think I got a couple more years in me before I do [become a father]."
