The girls travel to Morocco and Molly blames her everpresent stinkface on being adopted. Brittani talks about killing snakes in the trailer park. Alexandria is freaked out by a monkey that jumps on her back... she must have seen that episode with Annie getting bitten by one. ALT meets them at Noureddine Amir's studio and the girls have to walk in some of Amir's sculptural creations. Kasia has to go through the entire store before they can find a dress that will fit a plus-size figure. It's something that every curvy girl has fought with at one point or another. Molly's dress is too long and she complains. They finally find the plainest dress in the world for Kasia, but she gets credit for remembering her heels, while Alexandria gets called out for runway walking with her socks showing. Then ALT packs them in a van, and takes them to tea on a rooftop desk so they can all have a little chat. Then they get to see their new house, which is stunning, but a bunch of them have to share a bed... which Molly gripes about incessantly.
Their first photo shoot is taking place on the back of a camel. Jay tells them that they are totally grumpy creatures. I hope these super pale white girls brought sunscreen, because they look like they could melt in the sun. I was kind of hoping this would be the episode where they made them look like different races. Do they not do that anymore? Brittani does some contortions and then stands on the back of the camel. It looks remarkably hard. Molly does great, Kasia looks like she's going to fall off and the photographer says it is painful to shoot her. Alexandria talks to the photographer and sounds like an idiot, and then pisses off him off by not listening. Hannah plays with the camel and pretends she's at a bar riding a mechanical bull.
Franca Sozzani, the EIC of Vogue Italia is the guest judge tonight, and man, I would not want to upset her. Molly's standing shot gets mostly good critiques, and Nigel likes that it is androgynous. Alexandria is just standing still and uncomfortable on the camel, and she looks pissed off. Tyra calls Alexandria out for being difficult on set. Kasia's shot is good, but it's missing energy. Tyra said her film looked self-conscious. Molly's looks natural and they give her props. They don't pick one of the bucking bronco pics for Hannah, they've got her kneeling on a camel and Tyra says her film was fantastic. Best picture goes to Molly. She almost smiles. Go figure. Alexandria and Kasia land in the bottom two. Fiercely real Kasia ends up getting ousted. -- Angel Cohn

Previously on ANTM: The girls learned that they were going to Morocco and squealing ensued. The excitement was short-lived as they set out on go-sees with no GPS. Some of the casting agents felt that Molly needed to be friendlier, and Nigel agreed even though her complaining during a shot in a trash heap seemed to be warranted. Brittani apologized for her ill-timed reaming of Alexandria, and sweet Jaclyn was sent home and denied a trip abroad. Five bitches remain!
With that, we are in Marrakech, Morocco! A camel poses in profile, and I'm sure that soon someone will tell him that he needs to prove his ability to give full-on face if he expects to last in the competition. The girls land, and Brittani is thrilled to have come all the way from a trailer park in Pennsylvania to an exotic locale. Alexandria tells us that she feels very positive, especially after getting best picture (and winning the go-see challenge) last week. She's moved ahead of the pack, after a difficult beginning in which she was "misunderstood." What the other girls don't know about her, Alexandria says, is that she can change. She's a chameleon, and even has a gecko at home. She adds, "He doesn't change colors, but I sure do." What the two have in common is their cold, cold blood, and love of reasonably-priced insurance.
The girls see a camel and Alexandria shrieks with excitement. Molly crankily tells her not to scream in her ear. She tells us that she was pissed to be in the bottom two last week. She didn't think she deserved to be there but apparently, she says, everyone thinks that she looks like she wants to kill everyone. It doesn't help that as she says this she looks exactly like she wants to kill someone. We flash back to Tyra telling Molly to fake it when she feels like crap. I think the problem is that Molly always feels like crap. Molly tells us that there are a few places where her anger comes from. She's had a lot of sadness and hurt in her life, and since she was adopted she thinks she has abandonment issues. That's why she's mad all the time. To add to the fury, Molly says that she's obviously going to have to act like a completely different person and be fake, a la Alexandria. She thinks it's bullshit, but I guess she's ready to do what she has to do. Hannah makes a cameltoe joke that makes Molly laugh, and her face cracks from the unusual pressure of smiling.
A guy with a monkey on his shoulder welcomes the cameraman to Marrakech as the girls walk through a giant marketplace. There's a whole bunch of people, and a guy with a cobra, and someone playing some sort of horn. Kasia says it's unbelievable that she has this opportunity, and tells us that she's going to work so much harder than anybody else because she has to as a plus-sized model. IMG doesn't even have a plus-sized division, but they do have something called "superstars," and Kasia hopes that's where she'll be. Brittani checks out the snake charmers with a high quantity of trepidation. She says that in her country hick town, if you see a snake you kill it, skin it, and eat it. And at the bar she works at, they hang the skin on the wall. Delicious snake nuggets. Barbeque sauce or honey mustard?
The Jays appear to tell the girls that they're in front of a guy whose name they do not caption and which is way too hard to try to figure out. But apparently he's the premiere snake worker in Morocco. Jay Manuel says that designers have been inspired by Morocco, and major models like Kate Moss are always having photo shoots and shopping sprees there. Yves St. Laurent also considered Marrakech his second home. Jay says that it's time for the girls to be inspired by the amazing culture in Marrakech, and have an amazing day ahead. They'll have a traditional Moroccan lunch and a fashion tour of Marrakech featuring all the sites that a top model should see. But first they'll be attacked by monkeys. No one seems to be in danger of going full-on My Monkey Baby, and Alexandria is in fact merely hoping that she doesn't get ringworm. Those monkeys look almost as mean as Molly.
The girls walk through the marketplace and the first Aladdin reference is made. Hannah tells us that in the middle of the competition she fell through the cracks a little bit and was accused of not being memorable. Nigel said that exactly one time. I don't recall ever hearing it at panel. Apparently, though, the words of Nigel make a big impression. Hannah says that she has to remember where she comes from. That is apparently a place with horses and parents dressed in '80s cowboy gear. It's possible that Hannah grew up on a dude ranch, or in a Devo video. She is an only child, and her parents taught her that what she has to work with is enough. Now it's time for her to believe that herself. And you know, I could really get behind the crisis of confidence plotline when it was coming from seven-foot-tall bullied Ann, but from someone as naturally gorgeous as Hannah it's just not as compelling.
The girls are led into a lovely restaurant where they get a fabulous looking meal. Kasia says that she has a feeling that other people didn't see her as competition since she's the fiercely real lady of the house, but beauty comes in more forms than skin and bones. We then hear from Brittani, who says that she definitely feels like she's stronger than Kasia as far as high fashion modeling goes. She has a stronger picture, a stronger walk, and a stronger chance of fitting into a size two sample dress. However, the whole Alexandria incident has left Brittani feeling a bit vulnerable during the last two eliminations. We flash back to Tyra reaming Brittani out, and then Brittani tells us that since she made amends with Alexandria and apologized to Tyra, the weight of a waist-length weave has been lifted from her shoulders. Coming from a less fortunate family, she says, modeling is a really risky thing. She has no trust fund that will enable her to take off to New York and get an apartment, and so this competition feels like her first and last hope. She's going to fight until she gets it, and then burn the trailer park in her wake.
The girls show up at a place called Villa Amir, where a fabulous show room has been set up. ALT is there, and tells the girls that he hopes these are their travel clothes. It turns out that they're in the showroom of Marrakeshi fashion designer Noureddine Amir. He started off as a sculptor, and now makes sculptor-esque clothes. ALT and Noureddine have selected some outfits for the ladies and would like to see them walk. Kasia reminds us that ALT is not only a judge but one of the biggest people in fashion, and it's important to make a good impression. Brittani is taken aback by the level of couture in Marrakech, and knows that she's going to have to work it if she wants to outshine the bold and lovely dress that she's wearing. She walks, and Alexandria tells us that Brittani is a very strong competitor and, like Alexandria herself, has a natural ability to walk well. However, Alexandria says, you have to have something more. Alexandria thinks that she, herself, has that. No word on whether Brittani does or not.
Meanwhile, none of Kasia's dresses fit her. Now that sucks. She says that she knows a lot of European designers use plus-sized models, but in this case everyone was looking like, "Why the fuck is she here?" Kasia cries as she tells us that it sucked to have the people go through half the store in an attempt to find something that would fit her. As we ruminate on what is either an attempt to create drama or a spectacular failure to call ahead, we go to commercials.
When we return, Kasia tells us that she put herself out there to be scrutinized, but it still hurts to feel like a giant fatty. It chips away at her confidence a little, she says. In the actual store she's holding up amazingly well, and also is seriously like a size eight. We've all been there, girl. Stay strong! Molly, meanwhile, complains that the dress that she's wearing is hard to walk in and very heavy. ALT is pretty complimentary of her, but in an interview she complains that her walk wasn't the best because she's wearing a ridiculously long dress. Brittani tells us that Molly does have a lot of potential to be a strong competitor, but she gets angry and complains a lot. In front of clients, Brittani says, you have to put on your fake face and act happy, just as you have to keep your opinions to yourself. They're all learning things about how to coexist in a completely contrived, artificial situation. Hooray?
Hannah walks, and ALT says that he likes her control. Hannah tells us that she doesn't have the most experience, but she's fresh and new and is ready for the challenge. Kasia, meanwhile, has finally been outfitted in a skirt that fits. She says that she was just holding it together, and doesn't think that anyone really noticed how upset she actually was. Kasia is the only one of the girls who brought a pair of heels with her, which she explains is one of the ABCs of going out as a model. I wondered why everyone else was barefoot. ALT tells Kasia that she's got control of her body, and he loves it. Alexandria is , and walks in socks. ALT laughs at her and tells her to go back and take them off. To her credit, she seems to realize that she's a dumb-ass. ALT likes that Alexandria has control of her walk. Kasia tells us that she never thought she'd have to look out for Alexandria, but apparently people actually like her. It's a mystery for our time.
ALT gives the girls a little critique. He points out that nobody had heels except for Kasia, and tells everyone to take a pair of decent shoes in their handbags. Brittani is the closest to having a high-fashion walk, and the great thing about her is that she didn't put her hands on her hips once. Brittani can feel the hate emanating through Alexandria's eyes as he says this. She does an evil laugh in the confessional and winds up with a, "Bitch, you're going down!" See, the confessional is totally the appropriate place for that! Well done, friend.
The girls suspect that they might be heading out on another go-see, and Molly says that she'd really rather go to sleep, dammit. Instead, they wind up on some sort of a fancy rooftop where ALT awaits them with a cup of tea. He tells them how wonderful it is that this opportunity has taken them so far, even after having gone through rough things like Tyra yelling at your sorry ass then giving you a vote of no confidence. Brittani knows it. ALT asks Alexandria how she feels at this point in the competition, and Alexandria says that she feels very, very unique. What? That makes no sense. For the record, Molly still thinks that Alexandria is a fake piece of shit. She acknowledges that she still has an anger problem, but says that she still sees right through Alexandria's act, and it's obnoxious. There is indeed a certain tone that Alexandria gets in her voice when she's laying it on thick that does make you want to kick her in the vagina. To wit she says that she's taking it all in as a great experience, and it's her first country. Her first country? Say words that mean something, you nit!
ALT tells the girls that they're on this particular rooftop because it's attached to their home! The place is really cool, except for all the pictures of Tyra that are littered throughout. Alexandria says that she was about to have a panic attack, in a good way I think, and that the whole place is "so not America." There's a pool and an outdoor shower, and much excitement. Brittani tells us that it's still all a bit surreal, and that she's so happy. There's one triple-wide bed, which Alexandria studiously avoids. Molly gets stuck with it and, per usual, is not happy at the prospect of sharing a bed with Brittani and Alexandria. She's pissed off and mopes about looking -- it must be said -- like she's going to kill everyone, while Brittani says that it's cool. Hannah tells us that Molly was the first person in the house, so really should have been on top of calling dibs on a single bed. You snooze, you lose, and then you lose while you snooze. It's a simple formula. Molly complains that she can't even sleep with her boyfriend half the time. That poor guy must have the patience of Job. Kasia tells us that Molly complains all the time, and needs anger management. And really, you're the one who signed up for this bullshit show. No need to be mad about the totally expected crap that they throw at you. Molly's anger, Kasia says, will get her sent home. She adds a "fingers crossed!" as we head to commercials.
When we return, there is Tyra Mail. "You've made it this far, but you're not over the hump yet. Love, Tyra." Everyone assumes that camels will be involved. Kasia tells us that she has to kill this shoot, and it's do or die. Let's hope that her animal allergies somehow cease when it comes to things with humps. The girls arrive in the lovely Marrakech desert, which Brittani says reminds her of animals and hay. This feels like home, because apparently the trailer park she lives in is also a petting zoo. Jay Manuel greets the girls and tells them that this is the location for their first photo shoot, which will take place on top of a camel. He assures them, from atop a camel himself, that chilling between two humps is not as easy as it looks. To wit, he tries to get down off of the camel, which doth protest a lot. The camel is so grumpy, in fact, that it seems to be Molly's animal soul mate. Camels are not the friendliest of creatures, Jay says, but today he's looking out to see which of them is engineered to be a top model and work through the mishaps to rock the shoot. British photographer Michael Woolley has been flown out especially to do this shoot with the girls, and tells them that they'll be outfitted in a crazy mix of traditional Berber garb and European sophistication. He wants to see the horizon in their eyes, and for them to show him why they are top models.
Hair and makeup happens, and Brittani tells us that she's more than ready to ride the camel. The camel totally needs White Strips, FYI. Brittani is first up, and climbs atop Mrs. Grumpypants Humpypants. She says that it was a lot harder than expected, and that she has to really work those inner thigh muscles so she doesn't fall off. Jay points out that she looks like she's clamping onto the camel for dear life, and asks her to relax. She does, and her pictures get much better. Jay loves her body language, and Michael asks if she's been taking contortion lessons. Is that something you can find at your local Learning Connection? Brittani then decides to stand on the camel, and miraculously does not end up with a mouthful of sand. Jay tells us that Brittani has gotten her mojo back. Furthermore, he believes her journey, and says that she's found renewed confidence. It does seem like she had a very great shoot.
Molly, as you may imagine, is complaining about how hot it is. She interviews that she knows she's always had to deal with her anger and impatience, but given how much she wants this, she has to pretend not to be such a bitch. Michael introduces himself to Molly, and then tells her she looks like a Molly, and she just giggles instead of telling him to fuck off. I guess she's learning. Molly does an impression of herself being a kiss-ass, which is pretty dead-on. She tells us that not only does she have to get a good shot, but she has to be careful not to anger the cranky camel. Vice versa, I would imagine. Molly looks completely fierce, and Jay tells us that she nailed the shoot from the get-go. She feels a soul connection with the camel and moves with it very well, and Jay says that she also brought tension to the shot. And she doesn't complain once! Brittani tells us that Molly's shoot accidentally fell into place. That characterization certainly does not seem very generous. Brittani says that anybody could have done it. Michael notes that Molly's shoot was amazing, and adds that some people say it's luck and some people say it's being prepared. Molly prefers the latter.
Kasia is up , looking oddly like a flapper. She tells us that her strategy is to bring a lot of emotion in the face, but also have great body shapes. This is of course not exactly easy on a camel. Poor Kasia looks very awkward, and Michael tells her that he's sure she can find something more understated to do. She's getting posey and catalogue-ish, and Jay notes that she's looking stuck. The camel walks around a bit, and Kasia looks like she's going to fall right off. Michael tells us that it's important for a photographer to feel like he's in control, and with Kasia he felt out of control. He adds that it was painful to shoot her. When Kasia's done she tells Jay that she's frustrated, and that when something's not working she gets self-conscious. He asks what she's self-conscious about, and Kasia admits that she's self-conscious about how her body looks. That is sad times. Kasia says that she's there because she wants to do high fashion, but she knows it doesn't all work for her. Jay tells her that he personally believes that there's a huge place in the business for plus-sized models, and if she's concerned about what her body looks like it means that she's not present or engaged. He's got a point there. Kasia walks off set looking defeated.
Alexandria is , and is thrilled to once again be working with an animal. She tries to pet the camel, who in turn tries to bite off her hand. It really is like the spirit of Molly! Jay tells Michael that Alexandria is going to try to hold on so hard that a gale force wind wouldn't knock her off, and tells him to push her. Alexandria tells Michael that she wants to hit this out of the park, and Michael tells her that this isn't baseball, and she's using the wrong analogy. Alexandria, being an idiot, tells us that she said the stupidest thing to a Brit, who doesn't even know what baseball is. She thinks she should have talked about cricket or polo. Maybe tea with the queen or Posh Spice, even? Alexandria continues her local tour of dumb-assery, and says that she feels really connected to this and wants to be a part of it. Michael tells her that, unfortunately, being a model is something more than that. He is clearly sick of talking to her. Alexandria conjectures that Michael thinks she's stupid, which is absolutely true. Alexandria has a hard time getting up on the camel, and subsequently has a hard time posing on top of the camel. Jay tells us that she was a huge struggle, and would not let go of being controlled and contrived. He says that you have to let go of the reins and truly come alive. Jay tells Alexandria that there was an awkwardness in her shoot, and wants something fresh and new. He asks what she thinks she can do to get there, and she says, "Direct myself." Michael pipes in with, "That's the problem." He thinks she's overdirecting herself. And then the real Alexandria pops out in an interview, whining that that wasn't what she was doing. She was feeling the moment and, she adds, "They're so fucking dumb." She gets back on the camel and stands up, and Molly tells us that she was doing the same posey shit as always. Molly doesn't think that Alexandria looks like a model, and doubts that she'll make it to the very end. If she does, it will likely be solely to irritate Molly or see if they might come to fisticuffs.
Hannah is , and in a drunken interview says that she wants to prove wrong the people who said she was unmemorable. She gets off to a good start with the camel by giving him a cheek scratch. She manages to ride him like a bucking bronco, which Jay and Michael both enjoy. Jay loves the tension in her body, and Michael says that she gave him the feeling that he wanted at the beginning of the shoot, which is that she and the camel are alone in the desert. The shot was full of atmosphere and he adds, "Bravo, girl." Hannah thinks that she got a good photo, and that in terms of her personality she started doing something that was missing before. What that is, I have no idea, but it may involve bull-riding skills.
Back at home, the girls get their first Moroccan Tyra Mail of Doom. Kasia tells us that this is the first time that she's nervous about being in the bottom two. She's hoping for a great shot. Brittani tells us that she's sad to see everybody go, but someone has to be on top. Alexandria tells the others that she guesses she made the photographer lose his temper, because her shoot wasn't working. Brittani tells us that if Alexandria is saying that she didn't do too great, it must mean that she sucked royally, given her penchant for always thinking that her turds are made of sapphires. Alexandria tells us that she's nervous and disappointed in herself, and doesn't want to be the first to go home.
Backstage pre-panel, Tyra announces that she smells like a camel. Hot? She was on the same flight with guest judge Franca Sozzani, who apparently has a beautiful way of two-finger typing. Fascinating, right? The girls appear in their lovely judging room, and Tyra tells them that Morocco was one of her favorite locations when she was actively modeling. There are prizes, there are judges. Guest judge Franca Sozzani is, of course, editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia.
Brittani is up first, and says that she loved shooting with the camel. Nigel loves the androgyny of her standing-on-camel photograph, and adds that the whole thing has a very Lawrence of Arabia feel to it. Franca says that Brittani is not natural enough. She's beautiful, but she's very concerned about what's happening around her. ALT says that it's a narrative out of 1960's Vogue, and that she looks like she's on a caravan and has suddenly seen the mirage of an oasis. He thinks it's very dramatic, and very high fashion. Tyra also loves the photo and says that it could be an ad campaign. She thinks that Brittani is taking a chance and a risk, and just has to make sure that she doesn't actually hurt herself. I guess the moral of this critique is: Franca Sozzani is wrong. But Franca Sozzani at her most wrong could never come close to the continuous wrongness that was Ann Shoket. Can you hear Franca Sozzani greeting the room with a slithery, "Heyyyy laaaaadiiiiiieeeees?" Methinks not.
Alexandria is up , and Tyra thinks that she looks much more modelesque with her hair pulled back. Alexandria's best photo also involves standing on top of the camel, and Nigel says that he loves her upper body, but wishes her legs were a little different. ALT says that all of the girls need to work on relaxing the tension in their mouths. He would have loved the photo, but Alexandria looks angry. He wonders if it's indigestion or constipation. Franca thinks that Alexandria's arm is a bit stiff, but overall she likes the picture. Wrong again! Tyra tells Alexandria that she struggled a bit in her film and was inconsistent. Additionally, the photographer said that Alexandria was talking back and instructing him. Alexandria says that she didn't say anything of the sort, which is a little bit true, although she did have that whole thing about wanting to direct herself and just generally annoyed the life out of him. Nigel tells Alexandria that how she's perceived is important, and that she's quite often been "misread" and doesn't feel it's fair. He tells her that she needs to be more aware. Tyra adds that the photographer has a lot of power on a shoot, so if he feels like the model is giving any attitude, he might give the magazine a not-so-great shot. Rarely do people say the photography is bad; more often they think that the model looks like crap. Alexandria looks quite sad about all of this.
Kasia is , and admits that she had trouble posing and making her body look good even though she loved the camel. Nigel likes her shot, and says that he'd love to see just a little bit more light and a softer look in her eyes. He asks what she means about having trouble making her body look good, and Kasia says that what she was trying in her posing wasn't working. Tyra adds that Kasia seemed self-conscious in her film. Her mouth was tight in every shot, and there was the not-good kind of tension. Franca says that there's a lack of energy, and ALT agrees. He adds that the photograph is problematic, and he's not feeling the nomadic narrative. Tyra tells Kasia that photographers always mark what they like, and on this shoot the photographer only chose one shot of her. She thinks that Kasia's better than having one usable shot. She needs to push her inner critic aside and rise to her experience level.
Molly is up , looking extra smiley. Her shot is great. Franca says that her body is nice and natural and the photo is good. ALT says that in a magazine, it's most important to see the message of the clothes. In this case, he sees the message of the high fashion princess on her own caravan. It's anchored, but she can still fly away. Tyra says that you can feel the model in the moment, and that Molly is very aware but not self-consciously so.
Last up is Hannah, who tells the judging panel that the camel was an awful lot like an electric bull. Nigel looks puzzled yet intrigued. He likes that her picture looks very current. ALT says that the photograph is wonderful, and he likes her hair and the scarf that she's wearing. The only weakness that he sees is her hand positioning, but it doesn't distract from the great romantic story. The photograph is edgy and, most importantly, he can see the clothes. Franca agrees, and says that the picture is natural and very good. She's not sure about the expression of the face, and says that it's not strong enough. Tyra tells Hannah that she looked through all of her film, and that she was amazing. She was creating the kind of wonderful momentum that made it seem like the picture was doing something different.
With that, it's time for the judges to deliberate. Nigel thinks that Brittani's shot is great, and unusual. ALT likes it and thinks it's dramatic. Franca says that Brittani is pretty, but this picture is made by the photographer and the stylist and not Brittani's face or body. Tyra likes the over-the-top-ness of the photo, even if it's not necessarily something that's so amazing that she'd hang it in her salon. Alexandria's picture is flat, according to ALT, who adds that she looks angry. Nigel adds that the picture is weird, unusual, and seems out of place. He's also not pleased to hear that she's having problems on set again. Even though she pretends and can be quite nice, Nigel says that it feels fake. Tyra thinks that Alexandria has a bit of Veruca Salt in her. Kasia comes off to ALT like a mad tourist. However, Franca says that it's a great picture, but she wouldn't put the photo or Kasia herself in Vogue Italia. Nigel thinks that the picture is great, but notes that there weren't very many great shots. Molly looks very elegant in her photo, and Franca says that she has real model attitude. This could be a picture for Vogue. ALT says that the photo is dramatic and has a narrative, and fashion has to have a narrative. Tyra agrees that Molly is on an international, nomadic voyage. Hannah's shot is very interesting, according to Nigel, though he's not sure if Hannah actually understands the narrative. ALT says that some of the great models don't think but still make fabulous photos. Isn't this counter to everything we've been told about the need to think about something when you're posing? Wait until Dominique hears this! Franca says that there's a lack of energy in Hannah's photo, and that even if you don't think you have to have attitude. Tyra says that Hannah looks beautiful. And with that, the judges have reached a decision.
Five beautiful ladies stand before Tyra, but she only has four photos in her hands. And those photos represent the four young ladies who are still in the running towards becoming America's Top Model. The first to be called is Molly, who has the best photo of the week. All that fake smiling works! Brittani is called , followed by Hannah. This of course leaves Kasia and Alexandria in the bottom two, which is no surprise. Alexandria's pictures are beautiful, fantastic and strong, but not as strong as the ladies who have already been called. Her talent is spotty, and the judges aren't sure if they can trust her demeanor on set. And then there's Kasia, whose film Tyra loves to edit...sometimes. Some weeks it's amazing, and then some week's it's not. She has a gorgeous body, and stands for a positive message, but she doesn't have the consistent confidence to match up with her gorgeous body. So who stays? Alexandria. Kasia totally does not even want to hug her. Tyra tells Alexandria that her pictures are stronger and more consistent than Kasia's, but she still has work to do.
Tyra asks what's up with the girl who has already taken gorgeous photos for V magazine going back and forth with the quality of her shots. Kasia says that she doesn't know, and that she's really disappointed in herself. Tyra tells Kasia that when she gets on set, she wants to be sure that nobody thinks they made a mistake in hiring her. Consistency is even more important than being the best. Kasia tells us that she knew she'd be in the bottom two, but didn't think she'd go home. It's a huge accomplishment to get into the top five, but she knows that she can do better and it's killing her. Kasia says that she has a lot of big dreams, and this is just a bump in the road. A big, Alexandria-sized bump.
week: Final four! And belly dancing with head trays.
