Sadie Robertson Brings Tears to Willie's Eyes and Performs Something So Memorable Even the 'DWTS' Judges Are in Awe

"This time I liked it even better!"

Sadie Robertson — who brought tears to her father Willie Robertson's eyes following her "Duck Dynasty"-themed performance Monday night — has made it all the way to the "Dancing With the Stars" finale, where she holds a chance of winning the coveted Mirrorball Trophy.

Twenty-five of Robertson's family members joined in studio to watch her perform two separate dances: a re-do of the duck-themed samba that she delivered earlier in the season and a Super Mario Brothers-inspired freestyle, according to the Times-Picayune.

Robertson and partner Mark Ballas once again performed in character, with Ballas sporting a long beard, all while stars from "Duck Dynasty" sat on the stage and watched.

The audience erupted in cheers after the samba ended, while the judges joined in showering praise upon Robertson. But the truly touching moment came when cameras caught a proud Willie Robertson wiping tears away from his face.

The judges — who gave her a cumulative 38 out of 40 — loved the performance, with Julianne Hough proclaiming, "This time I liked it even better!"

Watch the performance and Willie Robertson's reaction below:

As for the freestyle, Robertson and Ballas scored a perfect 40 for a dance inspired by the Super Mario Brothers video game, performing, once again, in character.

While Ballas donned a Mario costume, Robertson was seemingly dressed as Princess Peach.

"That was the most memorable freestyle we've seen in ages," judge Carrie Ann Inaba said, with the other judges mirroring her sentiment.

Watch that performance below:
