2. Tessa VIRTUE / Scott MOIR CAN 208.80 2 3 1

4. Tanith BELBIN / Benjamin AGOSTO USA 203.00 5 4 3
5. Federica FAIELLA / Massimo SCALI ITA 201.91 4 5 4

I was able to watch some of the men’s short programs on CBC, which was cool. I don’t remember the last time I saw figure skating on TV (we don’t have cable). I was hoping they would show the ice dancing since the station kept hinting about it, but right after the men it switched to another program. An amazing placement for Tessa & Scott!
