Dancing with the Stars eliminated Mary Lou Retton and her professional partner Sasha Farber during Monday night's Season 27 performance show on ABC.

The former Olympic gymnast with five medals and Sasha were sent packing based on the combination of home viewer votes from the last two weeks of competition as well as the scores provided by Dancing with the Stars judges Len Goodman, Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli from last week and Monday night.

"It really has been [a milestone for me]. This has been the time of my life. I hadn't challenged myself in decades, and I challenged myself and I'm off to a fresh new start. Thank you everyone!" Mary Lou said following her Dancing with the Stars ouster.

The other couple in jeopardy of elimination prior to Mary Lou and Sasha's exit was model and Cover Girl Alexis Ren and partner Alan Bersten; however, they were not necessarily the other bottom-two couple based on judges' scores and America votes.

Dancing with the Stars - "Halloween Night"

"Halloween Night" featured each of the remaining nine Dancing with the Stars celebrity and professional pairings dancing to some spooky songs and executing some "terrifyingly fun dances" in costume, according to ABC.

Two celebrities topped the judges' leaderboard in first place with a perfect score of 30 judges' points apiece: Singer and dancer Milo Manheim and actor and Fuller House star Juan Pablo Di Pace.

Milo and his professional partner Witney Carson took the stage with a contemporary routine to "Toxic" by 2WEI. Len called it "spellbinding" and "terrific."

Len figured Milo would be "the first one back next week," and Bruno said the routine was "insanely good and brilliantly twisted." Carrie Ann also called Milo and Witney "a dynamic duo."

Juan Pablo and partner Cheryl Burke performed a 30-point worthy jive routine to "Dead Man's Party" by Atwater Men's Club. Carrie Ann said it was "sheer perfection." Len explained the pair had "wow" moments with excellent technique, and Bruno noted Juan Pablo's jive steps were "spot on."

Actress and Harry Potter star Evanna Lynch and partner Keo Motsepe finished the night in third place with 29 points after taking the stage with a tango routine set to "Disturbia" by Rihanna.
