'America's Next Top Model' Recap - "Daniella Issa Helayel"

The girls return back to their house and Molly was excited that she was top two. Brittani knew that she had to continue to raise her own personal bar to stay in it, while Alexandria hoped that she could prove herself and she talked to the other girls about the competition. Hannah was just excited to be part of the final four and talked positively about all the remaining girls.

The girls received a visit from Miss J. He explained that the girls would have a client meeting with Franca Sozzani, the Editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia. The girls served each other tea and got tips from Franca about being a model; she suggested turning negatives into positives. Each girl had some their photos analyzed by Franca, but Brittani spent the most time asking questions and tried to make the most out of the situation.

Miss J introduced Noor Talbi, a professional tea tray balancer. The girls received a lesson in balancing their tea trays. Brittani and Hannah had the most trouble balancing, but Molly and Alexandria did better. Then it was announced that the girls would be performing in front of a live audience. The girls got into their outfits and they headed to the restaurant. Miss J gave the girls a twist: professionals will be performing with them and they would have lit candles on the trays. Miss J announced the prize was a one-on-one teach with Miss J. Alexandria spoke confidently about the challenge before they even started.

The challenge began and first they had to head down the stairs. Molly tripped on her skirt on the way down and she got angry. For the rest of the challenge Molly couldn't shake the anger. Even after she was done Molly was sulking, and showing her upset in the background. Brittani did her best and not only moved, but didn't drop her tray. Hannah struggled a bit with the hip motions but her tray never fell off. Alexandria was last and she tried to put power in her walk. Her overconfidence got to her and she dropped her tea tray.

After the challenge, Miss J gave his critiques. Molly was upset because of the trip. Alexandria tried too hard. Brittani did a decent job and Hannah was a bit too Hawaiian. Miss J announced the winner was Brittani; she let Hannah join her in the challenge. Molly continued to be upset after the announcement. Brittani and Hannah both got time with Miss J. Miss J hinted that the final challenge would be intimate and the girls should know how to do half-turns. The girls decided to sit down and have some traditional Moroccan food: brains. Brittani was too grossed out and spat out the brain almost immediately.

The Tyra Mail announced the phrase "Soukces." Brittani felt sick after "eating" brain so she didn't eat dinner and just hoped that she would throw up. In the morning, Brittani was still sick, but the girls still had to get ready for a photo shoot. Jay announced the shoot would be in the outdoor market and it would continue the theme of the fashion caravan from last week. Friedemann Hauss was the photographer and he wanted to make sure the girls would get acclimated with the culture. The girls got their hair and makeup fixed and Brittani continued to sulk in the background.

As the girls started their photoshoots Hannah lacked a bit of natural walking and had a glaze in her eyes; Friedemann said that she was posing too much. Molly was told not to do a profile for this shoot and did a better job. It was likely because she didn't have to move. Jay talked to Alexandria about letting go during the photoshoot. She felt beautiful in the shoot, but her lips weren't relaxed. She was unnatural with her lips, she lost her neck. With the rain coming down, Brittani was still feeling weak but she did her best to pose with the combination of the rain and the door.

At the apartment, the girls got the elimination message and worried about who was going home. Molly was confident, but Alexandria wasn't sure about being eliminated. Brittani felt confident but she knew that her best may not be the judges’ favorite. Hannah wanted to do her best, but was in tears because she didn't bring her personality.

The girls arrived at judging and after Tyra announced the prizes she introduced Nigel Barker, Andre Leon Talley, and guest judge Daniella Issa Helayel. Alexandria was first, her face looked weird for Andre, and Nigel didn't understand the pose. The photo wasn't edgy enough. Brittani got reprimanded for wearing a scarf, but Brittani's photo got some positives. She was missing her other arm in the shot. Tyra still didn't see high fashion magazine. Hannah's photo was unusual and interesting to Nigel. Her face was "off." Andre pointed out that there wasn't a wow moment. Tyra explained that she wasn't round or angular. Molly followed and she got great overall critiques from all the judges. She showed off all the clothes really well.

After the judges’ deliberation, Tyra announced the top photo was Molly. The bottom two was Alexandria and Hannah. Tyra first talked about how blondes were all the same, but she though both girls were interesting. Alexandria had too much control and wasn't high fashion. Hannah lacked control. Tyra announced that Hannah was safe and Alexandria was eliminated.
