"I couldn't ask for a better way to say thank you that I got to do this. I got to go out on all tens! That's amazing. I got that! I got that! And I start production on Fuller House tomorrow morning at 8AM, so you know what? I'm going right into more work. This has been an absolutely incredible experience. I can't thank you enough, Keo, and I have made some beautiful, wonderful friends here," Jodie said in her final words.
The couple tended to land in the middle of the judges' leaderboard every week of the Season 22 competition, however, they went out with a bang last night after earning a perfect score of 30 points for their individual routine from Dancing with the Stars judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli.
The other couple who was in jeopardy of elimination happened to be Boyz II Men member Wanya Morris and partner Lindsay Arnold. Host Tom Bergeron did not announce whether Wanya and Lindsay were actually in the bottom two based on America's vote and the judges' scores from last week.
Monday night's broadcast featured the six remaining celebrity and professional pairings each performing an individual routine and then a "Judges' Team-Up Challenge" performance choreographed and creatively directed by either Carrie Ann, Len or Bruno. Each group ultimately received a total of 29 out of 30 points to add to each couple's initial score. America scored each dance a nine.
Jodie and Keo tied for first place on the judges' leaderboard with Good Morning America meteorologist Ginger Zee and partner Val Chmerkovskiy. Both pairs topped the night with a total of 59 out of 60 points each from the judges -- which included the score of 29 for their team dance.
Ginger and Val danced an Argentine tango, while Jodie and Keo took the stage with a jive routine.
Jodie and Keo's group number was with America's Next Top Model winner Nyle DiMarco and partner Peta Murgatroyd. The team executed a sexy Argentine tango choreographed by Bruno.
Ginger and Val danced a fun and flirty samba with Wanya and Lindsay in their "Team Len" dance.
Third place on the judges' leaderboard went to Nyle and Peta with 58 total points. The couple first danced a paso doble that earned 29 points from the judges.
UFC fighter Paige VanZant and partner Mark Ballas finished in fourth place on the leaderboard with 57 total points. After first dancing an individual Viennese waltz routine that received 28 points from the judges, Paige and Mark joined NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown and partner Sharna Burgess for a "Team Carrie Ann" paso doble performance.
Antonio and Sharna claimed fifth place on the judges' leaderboard with 56 total points. They initially took the stage with a 27-point worthy Viennese waltz.

Wanya unfortunately slipped on a prop during his jive routine and fell out of step with Lindsay, therefore earning only 25 points for the dance. As a result, the pair landed at the bottom of the leaderboard in last place for the first time this season with a total of 54 points thanks to their "Team Len" dance.
