Lee: *walks into the kitchen for a snack* *gasps as she sees countless Dorito pieces and crumbs littering the counters and floors, as well as cheesy Dorita smears everywhere too* What the hell? How could someone makes such a mess? SkinSkinSkinSkinSkin (If we can reuse from casting) Matt: *in confessional* That was the best se...snack...I have ever had.

Judging I think this is a beautiful photo of you Ali. You said your skin was your favorite features for this shot but I would have gone with hair, because its so bouncy and you are barely showing any skin, but it does still look great so I don't mind. I love the slight movement, your eyes are lovely and this is the correct way to do a commercial expression without going for a big smile. You finally smiled! Well its a closed smile but you finally did it Kati. You have such a lovely pair of eyes but I would have chosen your smile honestly, because its so cute in this photo but both look pretty good. I just love how commercial you look in this shot. Your film was overall not that great, but this shot is and I really like it. I was soooo impressed with you Lee. You said your skin was your best feature and I agree, it looks marvelous and unlike Ali you are actually showing a lot of skin. I love how you are caressing your skin because it really gets the point across and your expression is so sensual and beautiful. You also know the client well because while Glamour is commercial they are also sexy and you brought that into your photo and film. This is a wonderful photo Matt. I love your smile, it's so happy go lucky and carefree and you have a stunning set of airs. Your strong bone structure and jawline also keep you looking like a model and not an actor, the jacket looks great on you as well. I just wish you had caught more of the light with your face but its not totally obscured either so its not that bad. This is absolutely adorable Montana. You have an amazing smile so I had no doubt you would excel at this shoot and you totally did, I could totally see this as part of an editorial and your legs do look really good too. You are selling me the shoes and the dress, which I don't even like that much, that's the sign of a great model. I was disappointed with your film overall. I have seen you be commercial before but this week its like that girl left the building. Luckily this shot isn't too bad, you do rock androgyny quite well and your facial expression is stunning. I just think its too intense, I gave you the option of not going totally commercial but this is a bit too strong for the client.

Expulsion Ceremony
Lara: Hello everyone! This has been the toughest expulsion ceremony so far. I had to look back at everyone's history, re-evaluate their photos once more and take several other factors into account. One girl clearly stood above the rest though....
Lee 5+5=10 Photo: A, Glamour: A, Commercial: B
Congratulations Lee! You are getting both a Glamour and commercial grade for your hard work, well done!
Montana 5+5=10 Photo: A, Commercial: A
Amazing job Montana, congratulations!
Matt 4+5=9 Photo: B, Commercial: B
Ali 3.5+5=8.5 Photo: C+, Commercial: C+
Will Kati and Tara please step forward? The first thing I want to say is that neither of you had a bad photo, it was just a very strong week. Kati, you finally delivered that commercial photo I had wanted to see and it was really good, however your film was also quite weak and you seemed to luck out on this one. Tara, you had the weakest final photo AND film. You have an amazing history in the competition but if this is an indication of what your performances from now on will be like then I am extremely worried. So who stays?
Tara (3.4) 3+4=7 Photo: C, Commercial: D
Congratulations Tara, you are still in the running to win this competition.
Kati, (2.6) 3.5+5=8.5
Kati, *hugs her* You have had an interesting ride in this competition and I commend you for always toughing it out, but in the end I do feel like you fell behind the others in terms of performances. I do think you will be an absolutely amazing runway model though, im sure your showlists will be huge. I am sorry Kati, but you have been expelled.

*The contestants are all at the house relaxing*
*Ali in confessional* Don't we usually have like, an international destination or something?
*Lara then bursts in through the front door*
Lara: Hi everyone! I think you all know what my little visit is about! Were going to our international destination. But here's the catch, we wont be telling you where until we land!
*everyone hears the sound of a plane landing in front of the mansion*
Lara: You all have about an hour to pack up and get ready!
*everyone packs their things and hop on the plane, a couple of hours begin to pass*
*Montana in confessional* We've been here for a while so im assuming Eastern Europe?
*Tara in confessional* I was thinking it might be Russia at first. But they're kind of a hot mess right now so I doubt it.
*The plane eventually lands and everyone exits, Lara is already waiting for them as she came on her own private jet*
Lara: Hello everyone! So im sure you already know that we are here in TOKYO, JAPAN! *everyones eyes light up with excitement*
Matt: *turns to Lee* Must bring back memories huh?!
Lee: *in confessional* I'm Korean...
*The final six are then taken to their Tokyo home, after a while they receive their first mail and take the limo to their set*
Lara: Hello everyone! As you can see we are standing in the middle of Tokyo in a busy ass street. For your first photoshoot you will be posing with this motorcycle *points to the vehicle* with Tokyo city as your backdrop. For styling think kind of edgy, and bad girl/boy-ish. You have the option of taking this into a more edgier, grungy direction which will get you a couture grade, or being a lot more sexy which will get you a glamour grade. Though it should still fit that overall, bad girl/boy on a bike look were going for.

Matt: *turns to Lee* Must bring back memories huh?!
Lee: *in confessional* I'm Korean...
;D ;D ;D Haha! Lee: *in confessional* YES! I am so excited, I felt so good at the shoot so getting the FCO was really gratifying. And we are overseas, which is super exciting! I am interested to see how I will be received in the Japanese market because Asian countries tend to be very nationalistic and competitive when it comes to fashion, but hopefully they'll like me...even though I am not Japanese, no matter what Matt thinks. He's not the sharpest tool in the shed...but at least he's really cute, and I wouldn't mind letting his tool in my shed if you know what I mean. *winks* Matt: *in confessional* Woah, Japan! This is so cool, I've always wanted to come here! I just hope that Lee doesn't get an unfair advantage for being at her home turf. Not that she needs an advantage anyway really because she's doing fine on her own, I mean her shot last week was so sexy and basically made me forget all about Tara. Tara: *in confessional* WHAT. THE. F-- *censor covers her mouth along with a bleeping noise, which goes on for at least a minute along with some censored gestures* I can't believe that stupid bitch Lee stole another one of my first call-outs...I mean, sure, I could maybe let the first one slide but two? TWO?! You've got to be kidding me. What was Lara thinking? And more importantly, what was she thinking by putting ME in the bottom two? I mean seriously, she must be back on crack or something...I think I'll have to talk to the producers about that because that's just not okay. I would take it up with Lara myself, but she could penalize me for that or something...but there's no way Lee can penalize me, so I am going to give that bitch a piece of my mind. *storms out of confessional* *finds Lee and glares at her* Yo, what the hell bitch?! Lee: Excuse me? Tara: You heard me! What makes you think you can get away with stealing my first call-outs?! Lee: Hey, I earned that fair and square, and the decision isn't up to me anyway, it's all about what Lara thinks of us. Tara: Oh yeah? Well, here's what I think of you, bitch! Matt: Lee:

Judging You had a great film to edit this week Ali, I was beginning to worry you were losing your spark but you really picked it up this week. This pose may not look the most creative but I see you in them tippy toes and I know how hard that must have been to hold. You totally captured this pissed off, high fashion biker chick look. It's strong, commanding and so is your facial expression. You have the ability to warp your face into the most interesting expressions and it doesn't always work, but this week it sure as hell did. Throughout your film I kept waiting for that one stellar photo but I never came across it. That being said you still did a great job Lee, again you surprised me by going the more glamorous route. I love the outfit and like always you know how to sell it, your body looks great and I love that you added a story to your facial expression because it helps to make it editorial. It just doesn't blow me away. I think this shot is great Matt...but my god was it hard to get to it. This was the only usable photo in your film and this late in the competition that's not something you want to hear. I do love that you did an almost profile for your face, you photograph amazingly from any angle really and I adore that styling on you. I wan't that jacket, I dont care if its for men. However I also feel its too clean cut, I gave you the choice of being really edgy or sexy and this isn't either. Replace the styling and you totally lose the edgyness of the photo. You also had trouble like Matt in the way that I consistantly felt you were too clean cut. You didn't push the edgyness of the photo, even though I really like your pose and your face is emotional and telling a story, it's not the right type of story. You see how Lee did that but still kept it fairly edgy, your's looks more romantic which wasn't the way I wanted this shoot to go. You didn't push the envelope like you should have. You and Ali were honestly the stands outs this week. This is a fantastic shot Tara. I love how its like you just parked the bike and someone honked at you and you looked over like "What the fuck!" And while you were looking over you also posed like an expert model and made your legs look amazing. It's such an intense shot but its also effortless at the same time, your film was quite good too.

Expulsion Ceremony
Lara: Hello everyone and welcome to this weeks Expulsion ceremony. You all had your first photoshoot in Japan as you posed in the middle of the street with some bad-ass motorcycles. The first call out really came down to two of you.
Ali! Lately it felt like your performances were losing their spark but this really shot you right back up! Congratulations Ali. 5+5=10 Photo: A, Couture: A
Tara! 5+5=10 Photo: A Couture: A You as well as Ali exceeded my expectations for this shoot. Well done.
Lee! 3.5+5=8.5 Photo: C+, Glamour: C+
Will Matt and Montana please step forward? This is a surprising bottom two for me. If someone asked me last week who I saw in the finale your names would have been the first. You both had similar problems this week, Matt you had the weakest film though your end photo was great, but still not edgy enough. Montana, your film was slightly better but your final photo was the weakest in the bunch. You both struggled with the theme basically and its disappointing because your photo's are really strong if you don't take the theme into account. The GPA's have been calculated.
Montana! (3.1) 4+2=6 Photo: C+, Couture: D+
Congratulations Montana. It was literally head to head with you two, this is the 2nd "bad" performance in your otherwise really strong portfolio. Now is not the time to mess it up.
Matt, (3.1) 4+3=7 Matt *hugs him* As you can see your GPA is the same as Montana's. You both were in the same position of being very consistent strong contenders, however I felt that Montana has had slightly stronger performances, along with your struggle with your film this week and the fact that somebody needs to go every week I came to this decision. And it's one of the toughest ive ever made, I see so much talent in you and I know the fashion world is not hormonally prepared for what you are offering. *laughs then hugs him, wiping off a tear* I am sorry Matt, but you have been expelled.

*A day or two after the shocking elimination the final four are all in the house waiting for the next mail, when in her typical fashion Lara bursts through the front door*
Lara: Hello final four! It must be amazing to be so close to the finale ladies. And boy do we have one hell of a day planned for you all. So first you girls will all be driven up to a photography studio, where you will be doing beauty shots with traditional Japanese origami as your styling. You can go any way you want with this shoot, though I recommend something quirky and editorial, but not too edgy. Draw inspiration from the origami styling.
Then later at night you will be taking a trip to the city of Osaka, we have set up a beautiful background of lit candles in a traditional Japanese setting (i'e, basically a candlelight vigil) and you will be wearing haute couture gowns and dresses for a very editorial, ethereal photoshoot. Goodluck girls!
