WEEK 8

**

You're in the same boat with a lot of your friends
Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in
And the tide's gonna turn
And it's all gonna roll your way

**

I know you want me (want me)
You know I want you (want you)

It's Trios Week, so directly after the show ends, the remaining couples have to pick the troupe member or previously eliminated pro that will be joining them for a dance.

"We should talk strategy." Regina says as they're moving back up to the skybox where they'll be doing the picking.

Emma looks at her with a smirk. "I already know who I want."

"Emma, it isn't just about you. It's about me too. I have to be able to work with this person. We need to discuss this."

Emma just grins. "Relax. I've got this."

"Emma!"

"Emma and Regina, since you two have the highest combined score of the season so far, you'll get to pick first." Sarah says, pointing to the board where the headshots of the troupe members and pros that they can pick from are hanging. Emma's eyes catch on the headshot she wants and she smiles.

"Zelena." She says and feels Regina's fingernails bite into her upper arm.

"Are you crazy?" Regina hisses in her ear.

Sarah looks at Emma for a long moment. "That will be three women in one dance. Are you sure you don't want to pick a male professional?"

Even though the nails are still biting into her skin, Emma can feel Regina bristle next to her at the thought that Sarah was making it seem like they needed to dance with a man."

"We're sure. We want Zelena." Emma confirms, raising her eyebrow and daring Sarah to say anything else.

"Alright." Sarah smiles, moving Zelena's picture over next to Emma and Regina's name. "Mary Margaret and David, you're up next."

"I'm going to kill you." Regina says into her ear. Emma just smiles at her.

"I cannot believe you chose my sister as our third person!" Regina huffs.

"Don't sound so excited, sis." Zelena says as she enters the room.

"It's gonna be great." Emma enthuses. "I've already got an idea."

"You've got an idea?" Regina's eyebrows go up.

"I have ideas, Regina."

Zelena chuckles as she watches them. "Oh, you two are just so adorable."

"Shut up, Zelena." Regina snaps. "Alright, Emma, what's your idea?"

"Well you told me we're doing the quickstep to 9 to 5, right?"

"Yes." Regina confirms.

"Have you ever seen the movie? It's about three woman who band together to get rid of their awful boss. It couldn't be more perfect for us! The three of us can play the three of them!"

"And who, pray tell, would I be?"

"You're the sassy brunette leader." Emma grins. "You're obviously Violet."

Regina seems to think this over for a moment before she nods.

"And being the blonde one, I'm obviously Doralee, so Zelena that makes you –"
