Very novel opening position. Nice choreography getting into character.
Lovely Triple Twist to start with.
Ach, Alex fell on the first part of the sequence of jumps. Zarah carried on and did another jump.
Lovely lift.
Zarah fall on Throw Triple Loop. Awkward getting up.
Backwards Outside Death Spiral good.
Double Salchow lovely.
So was Reverse Lasso Lift
Ach, Alex slipped while giving Zarah a piggy back. So they both ended up falling, with him on top of her.
Got up quick, but a bit of confusion over where to re-join.
Then a weird lift in the choreographic sequence. After what just happened, I'm not sure I would have taken the chance of doing it.
Beautiful Throw Triple Salchow.
And no problems after that.
When they finished, they just looked around as if to say "What On Earth just happened?!"
Zarah gave a hand heart signal to somebody.
They leave the ice with their arms around each other. Today they both bury their heads in Chris' chest, and he comforts both of them.
When we return from the replays, Chris is doing a great job comforting both of them.
They go into 4th in the FS, and 3rd overall.

Ava is so teeeeny tiny, when Stephen and her skated in hold they look like big brother teaching his baby sister to skate 
With that much height difference, their pair spin looked awkward but otherwise they did really well.
Love their lifts, they looked the most secure out of all the teams so far

Zarah looks like she wants to go off screen and cry.
I thought that yesterday, but today I got the impression she was more accepting that it wasn't their day.
What @labgoat said after the Short yesterday comes to mind:

I hope they have another competition before Nationals. They won't want to go into it with this event on their minds.

They just are so adorable. Ava is such a pair girl and Stephen is a really solid partner. They did their maximum here, and should be really proud of themselves <3

I wonder why Irina looked sad even though they had a good skate... she wasn't even happy about the scores or taking the lead.
I hope she's okay

I don't think she considers this a good skate, they had much better outingsI wonder why Irina looked sad even though they had a good skate... she wasn't even happy about the scores or taking the lead.

She’s not all that happy with this skate, but it was not bad at all. Nice lifts and a nice program. I hope they’ll land the triple throw cleanly soon.
Milada KOVAR / Jared McPIKE (USA)
Rocket Man Melody
2Tw2
3T Step-out
2A+1A+2A< Not the same timing, step
2FTh Free leg a bit slow

Good JGP debut for this young team
Some errors, but good lifts and good basic technique. They seem happy and so I am happy for them.
Alzbeta KVIDEROVA / Jindrich KLEMENT (CZE)
Another Love
2Tw2 Nice
2A+2A+1A Nice
3T< Timing not synchronised
3STh Off-axis, two-footed

BiDs* Lost his toepick
3Li1 Came down early
ChSq1
2FTh Touch of the free foot
PCoSp4
Score: 73.93
Total: 121.84
They are very promising, they just weren’t able to fully show it today. I’m really eager to see the future of the Czech teams, they are all so different, with unique strengths.

This program is just wonderful, so creative and unique. They probably won’t be completely happy with this performance, but there were some really great elements in there like the twist, the lifts and the 3STh. Things are looking up for these two, and I’m hoping as the injury fades, they are able to build on this towards the end of the season. They are just lovely.
