And This Is
Where Your Ego Goes... Last time, a science fair decided that Angela and Daniel would have an edge going into the Callback Challenge, which would have them coating... literally... some dorks. That's where Jesse, after week after week of warnings, finally got his walking papers. Now nine remain. Andre says that it sucks having eight crazy people share the same house. Two of said crazy people, VJ and Blonde Rachel, end up cuddling. The others wake up to the note du jour, attached to an anatomy book. Point Angela, who got her degree in animal sciences. "Today's Edge Challenge is all about anatomy, but not the kind that VJ and Rachel have been studying late at night." Mary Alice isn't going to tell them what the challenge is... but she swears that she's not going to be anywhere near that room when it happens. Must be something oogy. Of course, since they all have to study the book inside and out, what does VJ do? Run off with it. Andre gets his own study took, a model of a woman's womb. Then he goes off and complains that this reminds him of his relationship, wherein the woman is suffocating the man. "You're free now, brother." Angela is pretty much the know it all on this challenge. The smarties arrive at a high school science lab, where they meet Ben and Jim Morrison, the AP biology teacher there. Ben says that knowledge of the human anatomy is essential, and the best way to learn that... Edge Challenge: Pig Dissection Each model is given a fetal pig, that is a pig that was never alive. Simple really, just identify body parts in 30 minutes: heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, intestines, tongue, stomach, gall bladder, and testicles. VJ says he will win this one because he worked at a butcher. Brett says he'll win because he was an anatomy major. Angela thinks that she has the edge. The winners will win the edge for tomorrow's challenge, a script to the callback challenge, a 30-second commercial in the shower. Not only that, only the winner... or winners... will shoot the scene in warm water. Thirty minutes to dissect a whole pig. Go! Moment of the challenge comes from when Andre asks.... "Where the hell are these balls!" Three... two... one... Put it down. Walk away. Final grades... Aussie Rachael: B So Daniel beats the others to win the pig dissection, winning warm water and the script. Back to Lisa. Turns out that her pig... DID have balls. Andre, hearing of this, again wants justice. Andre says he's going to challenge it. Sure enough, Andre and Angela go to the teacher to challenge it. He takes a look and... "I wish I could call you a liar, but you're not." REVISED GRADE. Lisa: C Hopefully we can work past this. Daniel works on his script. A lot of lines for 30 seconds. He didn't feel comfortable with it. Meanwhile Andre works on his presence... with cold water. Callback Challenge: 30-second Commercial The challenge is to shoot a commercial for Lather Body Wash with Matte Heinze and Zosimo Maximo. Matte will pick the person to get the callback. He's looking for performance. Daniel will get warm water and a day to remember his script. The others will have 20 minutes to learn their script and then perform it... in ice cold water. One of the other models will decide which take to show Matte... And sure enough, everyone has a partner... except Andre. There's not one person he trusts. He's left to trust Pickel with his fate. Oh, and by the way, the best takes do not stop. Daniel is first, but he isn't at all confident about his presence. VJ goes around and hears the script from other teams. He's cheating. Brett thinks that it's unfair. VJ thinks he's not doing anything wrong, so if you think that it's wrong, then say something about it. First team is Daniel and Aussie Rachael. Daniel takes the first take... some edge that was, eh? Rachael, meanwhile, is experienced in commercial work. She had better nail this. One thing she's not experienced in... cold showers. Seems like she's not the only one. Now... the greatest hits... - Blonde Rachel...
brain-freezing. VJ turns out to be the most natural. Of course it helps that he had technically more than 20 minutes with the script. Final grades: Daniel: B Andre opens up about VJ cheating his way through the commercial. Mary Alice says that he didn't cheat. He was "paying attention to what was going on around him." VJ wins this one, which means that he'll return next week. Rachel, though, didn't realize that this competition was going to be as hard as it is. Elimination Reminder: VJ is immune. He thinks that he's the only person who understands the competition. Mary Alice decides that she's only calling down TWO people. And she doesn't even need to state who's coming down, because Blonde Rachel and not-as-blonde Lisa take the stroll. Lisa says that she's not up to par. She lacks in intellect, but makes up for it in confidence. Rachel says that she's there because she's not beautiful just on the outside, but on the inside. Rachel out-paced Lisa in the Edge challenge, and Lisa out-paced Rachel in the Callback challenge, so this one is going to come down to... a smart-off. 1) In what country is the
region known as Darfur? 2) Who wrote "Tom Sawyer"? 3) If you bet $5 on a 3-1
bet and you win, what do you get? 4) In what century was the
American Civil War? 5) Who did George W. Bush
run for president against in 2004? Lisa thinks she has amazing street smarts. 6) What's Mary Alice's last
name? Eight are left in the hunt for a modeling deal and $100,000. Rachel needs to step it up, because she dodged a bullet. We're down to half, and the competition is going to get tougher. See what happens next week as the models get their geometry on. |
