They went back at the model house, and its Jam's attitude who is being hate by the circle of friends Karyle, Rio, Nicole and Shaina.

"You know, she is very proud. I don't even know if she's washing dishes. Most of the time, me, Shaina, Karyle and Rio do the washing of dishes." Nicole.

"I don't think I'm being mean to anyone." Jam.

Photoshoot

I calls Jam, Ana and Rio, who won the challenge. I told them this week's photoshoot is a group shot, and the three winners for last challenge will have a chance to choose their own group mates, two each.

Rio chooses Shaina and Karyle, Jam chooses Lady and Hana, while Ana chooses Ria and Patricia. The four girls who are not chosen separate a group.

First group to have their photoshoot includes Lady, Jam and Hana. Lady and Jam did well, but Hana still plays safe. Next group includes Ana, Patricia and Ria. Ana's photoshoot are not that bad, not that good at the same time. Patricia did well, but not like last week. Ria failed to portray as a korean singer. Third group are Shaina, Rio and Karyle. Shaina portrays as a korean singer. Rio didn't do well like yesterday. Karyle is constent for impressing Mike. Last group are Nicole, Elijah, Mickey and Bea. Bea is playing too safe. Mickey did an okay photoshoot. Nicole improves a lot and Elijah suddenly changes into new person.

"Looks like the Elijah I pictured last week is very different from this week." Mike.

At the model house, the girls prepares for the pamel of judging. Then, they got an Amanda Mail that another one girl will gp home today.

Panel of Judging

"Hello, Ladies. Another panel of Judging awaits you. To start, let me introduce you to our panel of judges. You model mentor, Melissa. Resident photographer, Mike. Asia's next top model cycle 3 winner, Gani."

First to evaluate is group one, Lady, Jam and Hana. They praises for working well as a group. But Hana is noted for being consistent in playing too safe. Next is group two, Ana, Patricia and Ria. Ana critics for playing too safe, while Ana is being praised by being a consistent one.

"But you don't have to be just consistent, but also to be the best of the best." Added Gani.

It's time for Shaina, Karyle and Rio. At last, Shaina got a good feedback. I told her that it's good to see her improves, but it's not enough if she really wanted to stay longer in the competition. Rio, again, failed to impress the judges. She's a korean, but still failed to look like a korean singer.

"I'm sorry, I'm just a newbie on here. I'm just 17, no experience to modeling, and I'm here to learn."

"But you don't need to excuse being young." Added Gani.

Rio cried, so I goes to her and hugs her. I whispers, it's okay, we experienced the same situation.

Karyle praises for being consistent. Last group includes Nicole, Elijah, Mickey and Bea. Nicole praises fir looking like a real korean singer. Elijah is being praised for transforming into another girl than last week. Mickey is praises for having an okay poses, but critics for playing safe. Bea's also on safe, but too safe.
