Last week, 10 Americans who thought they
were the most beautiful people in the world came together in a
contest to prove it, not knowing that they would be judged on their
inner beauty as well. Only upon their demise would they be informed
of the little twist to this competition, a lesson that Hadiyyah-lah
learned the hard way. Nine beauties remain.
Chelsea emerges from the Hall of Beauty
never wanting to go back there again. The other contestants will be
surprised to see her come back. Actually, they'll be smiling through
torn and bleeding hearts. No one... NO ONE... likes her.
Meanwhile, we have a case in the
house. Julia is missing a pair of jeans. Julia manages to find them
in Chelsea's bag, an allegation that Chelsea denies. Chelsea... just
lets her have the jeans. Not worth getting into a tussle over.
Billy gets his vitamin smoothie on,
and tries to get the house in on it as well. Success. This is what
happens when you're the manager of a Vitamin World.
TODAY'S CHALLENGE: The Million Dollar
Look
The nine remaining contestants are
sent shopping on Melrose. They think they're going to be judged on
their fashion sense... but we know better. We're testing on charity,
honesty, and concern for others.
Teams are...
Team #1: Laura, Billy, Julia
Team #2: Ashley, CJ, Chelsea
Team #3: Joel, Ray, Monique (with a wig on)
For three people, each team will get
$100 to spend on three outfits. The bottom two will be sent to the
Hall of Beauty, where one person will be sent home.
Team #1 decide to head to a smaller
boutique. Team #3 decides to go with charm. Team #2 says "Shop as if
you're ugly." That... and faking its own charity... may stretch that
money. Chelsea says that she would not go with that plan.
Meanwhile, the judges are in the Spy
Room monitoring their actions when faced with a hired actor
representing a fake charity, A Lifted Spirit Children's Cancer
Foundation. Not only that, what lengths are they willing to go to to
get what they need? All of this will be considered as the teams make
their way from store to store.
Team 1 lets Billy do all the talking,
saying that they need clothes... for free. He says that they just
want to BORROW these clothes. The store manager agrees. But Laura
needs shoes, and she's willing to whore herself out for money... Not
in THAT way, but to flash the moneymakers as she call it. They
approach the plant... and empty their pockets. PASS!
Meanwhile, Team 2 represents a fake
charity. Chelsea thought it was wrong and wants none of it. Ashley
and CJ manage to bilk some cash out of passing strangers. The judges
say that Ashley's not as cute for it inside. CJ says that he might
stop once he realizes that he's doing something that he knows in his
heart is wrong. Ashley, on the other hand... not so much. As for the
plant, CJ is the only one from this group to PASS.
Team 3... uses their beauty to
further their own cause, both inside the store and out. Meanwhile,
Ray & Monique give nothing to the plant outside. Joel PASSES this
one.
Okay, time to go to a party. BUT
FIRST... Ashley turns an ugly dress that Chelsea bought into a
balloon dress. Billy goes with the whole "simple is best" approach,
considering what Nole might think about the outfit. 1) Sport coat.
2) Collared shirt. 3) Tuck in. The tuck is back.
One by one, the hotties are brought
out for display and judgment. CJ decides to forego the metal stairs
that everyone else uses for something that helps out bare feet a
little more.
So who has the million dollar look?
The winner of this challenge will take a $5000 shopping spree. The
two losers will head to the Hall of Beauty, where one of them will
have go home.
Julia... $500,000
Laura... $100,000
Joel... $750,000
Billy... The Million Dollar Look! (WINNER)
Monique... $10,000
Ray... $1000
That leaves three... Two of them have
$10 looks and will head to the Hall of Beauty...
CJ... $10 (LOSER)
Chelsea... $75
Ashley... $10 (LOSER)
So CJ and Ashley are headed to the
Hall of Beauty. Though Ashley, who helped Chelsea out with her look,
gets a hard lesson: no good deed goes unpunished. Ironic, isn't it?
Chelsea says she created the look, but Ashley only helped "a little
bit".
CJ, on the other hand, packs nothing.
That'll be rather awkward if he's eliminated.
Back in the Spy Room, the judges are
disappointed by BOTH condemned players' actions. They're both
beautiful, but they're both morally lacking. Ashley, more so,
because CJ stopped. And she took an AIDS bracelet from someone else.
But there is one more chance ahead...
A stunt biker posing as a messenger is going to take a spill. Which
one of them will be the first to help? Will either of them help?
Welcome to... THE FINAL STRAW.
CJ looks average... but at least he
asks if he can help... and does... PASS.
Ashley looks like a Grecian
goddess... but does she stop and help out? We'll find out soon
enough.
THE HALL OF BEAUTY
Ashley says she has the whole
package. CJ says that a beautiful person can only be felt on the
inside. A person shouldn't live from the outside in. Nole mentions
that in the Hall of Beauty, he really should've thought about how he
was going to present himself.
But the player leaving tonight is...
ASHLEY. CJ will return to the house.
But what happens when Ashley is given
the news of the twist and the evidence of Ashley's lack of true
beauty, including the failure with the bike messenger? Ashley...
defend your actions... "They didn't see my overall package." Sure,
they didn't.
Okay, let's get her picture out of
here, as we prepare for our next challenge.
