By Potes | Season 17 | Episode 2 | Aired on 09.21.2011
Meanwhile, Angelea thinks she is more deserving of Sheena's "unexpected title. But Angelea doesn't defy positive stereotypes like Sheena does! Meanwhile, Kayla is going back to red in hopes that people will actually recognize her. She's fine with that. We see the results of Lisa's TY-Over, and I actually feel a little bad. It's the same crap that they gave her last time, and looks more like a wig than ever. How does she get her hair to do that? Miss J. tells her that she'd better rock it, or she'll face his size 11s in her anus. Shannon looks on in horror. Meanwhile, Bre goes from chill to whatever the opposite of chill is as her haircut progresses. She says that she's overwhelmed and wants to cry, because the worst is already done. Bre tells us that her chances of winning just went out the window, because she lost her confidence. Her hair does, in fact, look kind of whack. She heads into the ladies room and says that she's going to get her things, and would like someone to call her aunt to come get her. A producer asks why she wants to leave. I mean, really. Unless your word is "baby," buck up. Your hair looked like shit before, too. Bre says, "I was upset when they wanted to cut my hair...now I'm at rage." Not at close rage. At rage, full stop. Bre claims that she doesn't have any hair, which has no basis in fact. She just doesn't have hair where it would look good to have hair. Bre starts sobbing as we head to commercials.
When we return, Bre is still at rage. Dominique, who is dressed in full clown makeup in her interview bit, tells us that Bre needs to get a grip. No doubt! In this case, though, maybe the check actually doesn't look good enough. But Bre, as many people do in their times of worry and woe, harkens back to Martin's advice. No, for real. And Martin told the girls to always think about their brand, no matter what the circumstances. And then Bre says, "I think the only way that I can really own being a girlfriend is if I'm a girlfriend to myself." Bre is sort of an emotional onanist right now. She's a hero for the ages.
Just then, the Jays enter the room and announce that it's lunchtime. They have Pink's hot dogs. Pink's has been a legend in Hollywood since 1939, apparently, and Jay Manuel says that they serve hot dogs to the stars. They look rather foul, but that is true of most chili dogs if you think about it. For their photo challenge today, the girls are going to have to create their own Pink's hot dog, while keeping their brand in mind. So I guess the candid hot dog would have...onions? I mean, this makes absolutely no sense. The top person this week will have their photo on Pink's website to usher in a new menu item -- America's Next Top Model dog. We see a series of three hot dogs, upon which are written in mustard, "Pink's loves ANTM." It both makes me want a hot dog and makes me want to barf. I can't explain.
