Head of Household Competition*the girls enter the judging room to see their motion editorials and pray that they will get a guaranteed spot in the final three*
Carolyn: Hi ladies. I can't believe we are already down to the final four. In just two short weeks, we will have the first ever winner of Mother Model. As you know, you shot motion editorials this week and I gave you complete directorial powers and creative vision. You also know that Kenya Knight, the head of Nous Model Management, the agency the winner will be signed with, was on set observing and as you have noticed, she's here with us today.
Kenya: Hello again ladies.
Carolyn: Okay, let's get started with last week's Head of Household, Ginta.

Kenya: I loved that you took that inspiration because when I saw you, I thought of Marilyn's complexion. I really liked this. I loved how it was very commercially friendly, but it still had the fashion elements. As an agency, we aren't like IMG or NEXT where there is a lot of super high fashion girls. We have more all-arounders who can do different industries of modeling.
Carolyn: I don't think I could have said it any better. You fit in with Nous very well. My one critique of this is that your mouth was either open or parted 95% of the editorial and I really wish you closed it. I feel like that's your go-to look and it would have been nice to see a little variation.
Kenya: And your eyes. I felt like you were squinting a lot. I know it was super bright when you were shooting, but it would have been nice to see your eyes more because they're gorgeous.
Carolyn: Thanks, Ginta. Next is Bregje.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=twcXPHcESY8Carolyn: WOOOOOOOOOOW, Bregje. That wasn't only stunning, but it was moving. I couldn't keep my eyes off of you and the emotion read through so well. It was almost like you were this high society woman whose husband worked on Wall Street but lost his job to the Great Depression and you were wondering what was going to happen next. The fact that I just came up with that entire story is exactly what your job was to do this week.
Kenya: Yeah, this was kind of brilliant and I'm kind of obsessed with it. When I first saw you, I saw a really commercial girl with an interesting face, but I would put you in Victoria's Secret right away and you kind of fell into that at first because you were doing more cataloggy and commercial stuff at the beginning. But then you pulled this out at the end and I was blown away. That close up of you when you slowly blink was just powerful. I felt what you were giving. You were staring into the camera in such despair throughout the thing and I was blown away.
Carolyn: And I didn't see a commercial girl at all.
Kenya: Oh, me neither. This really showed off your interesting features and put you in the high fashion district.
Carolyn: Thanks, Bregje. Next is Kendra.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9J58hTlTS4Kenya: When the four of you walked onto set and I got my first glimpses, you were my immediate favorite because there is something just so fresh about you and you really played that up in this editorial.
Carolyn: Yeah I love how natural and clean the makeup was because it really played on the youthful look and fresh face that you have. I thought this was beautiful. The opening scenes of your face were stunning and I couldn't stop looking at your eyes.
Kenya: I agree. And I also like you how told a story like Bregje. It was like you and the other girl were great friends and you both wanted this guy. When you were looking at her and we saw your reflection in the mirror, I thought you were going to jump on her and kill her which would have been really dramatic and I'm glad you didn't because that would have been too cliche.
Carolyn: The subtleties really made this better.
Kenya: Exactly.
Carolyn: Thank you, Kendra. And finally, we have Karmen.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hv_nMzoyo8Carolyn: I feel like you really struggled, Karmen. This is really beautiful, but it just doesn't leave that impact that the other girls left.
Kenya: I do give you an A for effort though because you tried to do a lot of different things, but they just weren't working out. You do look gorgeous though. I love how glam this was because it was different from the other three, especially Bregje and Kendra's that were more solemn.
Carolyn: I agree. I love how someone was doing your nails as someone else was putting on your lipstick. It really felt like the life of a top model which was great. Thanks, Karmen.
Carolyn: Okay. We have all of your scores and it's time ti figure out who will win the Head of Household competition and secure a guaranteed spot in the final 3. Congratulations...
Bregje! You really brought something extra to the shoot and exceeded expectations. Congratulations! You're the new Head of Household. As HOH, you do need to nominate two girls for eviction, however. I will give you some time and the order of how everyone performed this week and then you will need to make your decision.
1. Bregje
2. Kendra
3. Ginta
4. Karmen
