PYRAMID CEREMONY*the girls all walk in excited to see their group shot*
Elle: Welcome back to the judging room final seven! Can you believe that the cast has already been cut in half? I'm very proud of you ladies and for that, I have a surprise for you all. The girls who make it through this elimination tonight will be going to...
THAILAND!
*they all scream and cheer, but slowly realize that one of them is not going*
Elle: Now, I don't want to get you all too excited because one of you will not be joining us in Thailand. *they girls look nervous* Well let's not dwell on that. Let's get to pyramid. Pyramid will be working a little different this week. We will judge the overall shot and then notify you of where you placed on the pyramid. There will be four girls on the bottom row, two in the middle, and one on top which means that the majority of you will be on the bottom row this week. Let's see the shot!
Elle: Wow, this is really beautiful ladies. I really commend you for working so well together to create a beautiful image. I think we should start from left to right with Nicole.
Cara: You draw my attention, Nicole. You and Juju pulled me over to that side of the shot and I can't stop staring.
Karlie: I agree, Nicole, you knocked it out of the park with this one. I love how you brought intensity, but the shot still feels soft which fits the brief.
Elle: I just love how you carried yourself. It's very simple, girly, and elegant. You look amazing in the dress and it's stunning. Let's move on to Juju.
Karlie: You're my favorite in this shot, Juju. You look so elegant, classic, and beautiful. It's soft, it's dreamy, it's all that we wanted. You managed to create an interesting pose, but it still feels natural. Well done.
Elle: And on top of that, your expression is so demure and airy yet you still connect very well to the camera. I also love that pixie cut on you! It really shows off your face!
Cara: And you did all this while balancing on a friggin ladder. Like, bravo, Juju. Flawless.
Elle: Next we will move to Liu.
Cara: You get a little lost, for me Liu which is a shame because you're right in the front and you look beautiful.
Elle: I'd have to agree, unfortunately, Liu. I love your pose and how soft you look, but you just seem to not bring enough to the shot that makes my eye gravitate towards you. It's probably one of your weaker performances to date.
Karlie: You are the only one sitting down, so you are below everyone if that's of any condolence. But being put down there should have made you work harder to stand out, though.
Elle: Now on to Anna. First of all, I find it very amusing that you and Nicole did the exact same pose in the exact same frame. You do grab my attention, but I think it's because your styling is different from the rest of the girls. It's a little more bold.
Karlie: Yeah, if you were given a peach or tan dress, it would have worked much better, but that doesn't take away from the fact that you look beautiful. You look like an elegant woman straight out of Mad Men.
Cara: I agree that you look gorgeous, but I can't help but look at the dress. Which is good I guess because you sell it, but I feel like you only sell it because it's completely different than the other girls.
Elle: Now let's talk about Sui.
Cara: I feel like you've been in a funk lately, Sui. You were such a front runner at the beginning of the competition, but now it seems like you've lost your spark. It looks like you're trying to be soft, but it still comes off as edgy and intense which isn't great.
Elle: What is going on with you, Sui. Throughout your film I just felt like you lacked energy. There isn't any spark like the Sui from the iD shoot. I thought this would be a perfect shoot for you because you have such a sweet, commercial look here in person, but I guess you're stronger at the edgier shoots.
Karlie: A few weeks back, if I had to pick a winner, I would have chosen you, but it seems like you're dropping quickly. I feel like there is no life here. You're on the ladder and just flopped on the top of it. There is no tension. It's just a weak photo, Sui.
Elle: Time to move on to Martha. I think this is great, Martha. It really shows that you took my advice from last week and changed up the face a little bit. It's much softer, but it also has a touch of sex appeal which is great.
Cara: I love your face and legs here, but I feel like the arms could have more purpose. See how they are kind of just flopped over into your legs. Maybe if your left hand was gently put on your hip it would have been better.
Karlie: I love this shot of you, but I didn't love you on set. It was very plain and catalog. Just because we wanted soft, classic looks doesn't mean that you couldn't do something more than just stand there.
Elle: And last but not least, Tanya.
Karlie: On set I could tell that you were very comfortable not looking at the camera and the photos were beautiful, but they just didn't work when everyone else is looking at the camera. In this shot, you are looking at the camera, but it's just not good. It's very amateur and exactly what a beginner model would do. You need to be more developed at this point.
Cara: It's awful, Tanya. You've had some shots where I've been your biggest cheerleader, but then you've had shots like this that just don't work at all.
Elle: It's pretty bad, Tanya. Your face isn't photographing well and the body is just boring. You're easily the one bringing this photo down.
Okay ladies. It's time to find out who is safe this week and who isn't. The first girl on the bottom row of four is...
Tanya.
The next girl on the bottom row is...
Sui.
The third girl on the bottom row is...
Liu.
And the last girl on the bottom row and could potentially be nominated for elimination is...
Anna.
*Juju, Martha, and Nicole all look excited as they know they are safe and will be going to Thailand*
Basically because of the styling and someone has the be here, Anna.
The first girl on the second row is safe and will be heading to Thailand...
Martha.
So that leaves Juju and Nicole for the top two places on the pyramid. But only one girl can be on the very top. The girl who came up just short is...
Nicole.
So Juju, that means you're on top of the pyramid this week! Congratulations. Now, you must choose two of the following girls to nominate for elimination and one of them will not be joining us in Thailand: Tanya, Sui, Liu, Anna. I'll give you some time to make that decision.
