I think he knew there was a strong possibility that he would go home but probably a part of him that wondered and hoped that he would make the cut. I think he is competitive and wanted to win but knew he wasn't a top dancer. The vote can be very unpredictable (Willow) and so you never really know until elimination. I can only imagine that he had such a mix of emotions, sadness but probably also relief. i thought the emotion he expressed at the end showed a soft sentimental side that I don't always see in men and I liked it.

I was trying to think of a way to describe Chrs' emotion then read your description
       "Soft sentimental side"
Perfect!  And I liked it too

Yep, I saw it too....thought it was really strange. I'm surprised that no one has brought it up here and even more shocked that it hasn't been in the rag mags. I do see that he's back in LA....I thought for sure he'd be going home for a week or so...since they're busy planting. Weird.

I saw it but was waiting for someone else to bring it up. It is weird but what is even more weird is he is not w Whitney. So strange. Maybe she will come out there. Who knows! IMO these two are either over or struggling big time.

I think it was more of a corner of the mouth kiss. Not far from her lips, but not on them either. I saw it as a kiss on the lips the first time too, since I wasn't paying attention. A bit close for comfort maybe. They also exchanged "Love you"s before their contemporary dance on Monday, which they kindly subtitled in the results show. I guess it's just friendship, but the show did him no favours subtitling it.

One thing about DWTS....they thrive on "showmances" and creating something where there isn't anything. So, of course they subtitled it. They would absolutely make it into something more even if it was nothing. Not saying it was nothing as I don't know and don't pretend to....but DWTS wouldn't hesitate to subtitle it to make sure all of America saw/heard it.

I was surprised too that it wasnt exploited in social media and even in the rag mags. Maybe ragmags didnt think it was worthy of publicity because it wont fly.  Or just didnt see it as a malicious kiss. On SM  I just saw some detractors comment in Whit's IG post about the kiss.  Someone posted a link of the elimination from daily motion.
You be the judge.  The stills look like it was on the lips, but it really was more like a quick peck on the cheeks, tho kinda close to the lips

Yes, I know how they operate. But the story for Chris this season has been that he's scared to touch another woman, because he's newly engaged, and he has no chemistry with his partner because he loves his fiancée so much. Why are the suddenly highlighting his connection with Witney, when he was already voted off anyway? And it was literally right after they'd showed some spy tape of Robert and Kym kissing and exchanging "I love you"s as proof of them having a romance. Slightly awkward.
