Toni Gonzaga: As it turns out, the top 10 in order would be Paulene, Renee, Edmund, Patrict, Bryan, Steven, Shelley, Trixi, Kenneth and Khrys.

Vice Ganda: Interesting, madami akong type jan! Good job sa lahat ng mga nag-sponsor kela Edmund, Patrict, Bryan, Steven at Khrys. Si Kenneth di ko masyado type, pero hindi ako bias na host.

Toni Gonzaga: The lowest tribute in this is Leezel.

Vice Ganda: Nako nako, magagalit si Petra! Raratratin kayo ni Praybeyt Benjamin, nadidisappoint ako, ang ganda pa naman niya pagkatapos ng makeovers.

Toni Gonzaga: Second lowest si Joram, then Fredrick, then Chricia, then Lheamir, then Mark, then Philip, then Kath V, then Rea, then Janella.

Vice Ganda: Wow di ko inexpect si Janella, pero when you're clothes or dress falls out in front of a million people, nako iba na ang iisipin nila.

1st Floor (Mrs. Israel)

The tributes woke up early with some to dismay while others heard good news, brought out by their mentors. As Mrs. Israel woke up early, she delivered the news to her tributes.

Mrs. Israel: Okay, eto na ang mga nakalap kong balita tungkol sa sponsors, may isang nakapasok sa Top 10, at may dalawa sa bottom 10...

Steven: Sabihin niyo na kasi... andame pang suspense eh napaka-obvious naman.

Steven: (solo) C'mon! Lahat ng mga tambay sa Capitol kanino ba kakampi, sa akin? May sumigaw ba kay Joram? Wala!

Mrs. Israel: Okay ang top 10 natin ay si Cheska!

Steven: ... Ha?

Cheska: YEHEY!

Mrs. Israel: Joke lang! Naniwala naman kayo.

Cheska: ... wag niyo akong niloloko ma'am

Cheska: (solo) GUSTO KO TALAGANG JOMBAGIN eh! Puro kalokohan, di siya nakakatuwa, buhay ang nakasalalay!

Mrs. Israel: Ayon sa totoong impormasyon na nakalap ng tunay na diyosang nagngangalang Edna, ang nasa #6 ay si STE-BEN at ang #38 si Rea... and #45 si Joram halos kulelat na. Maawa naman kayo sa pangalan ko, ang diyosa ay dapat laging wagi.

Joram wasn't exactly devastated by it, he took it lightly and hope things change. Rea is the one who took it so hard because it's like she ain't gonna see the sun without any sponsors.

Rea: (solo) How did I end up sa bandang bottom 10? *cries* I mean masaket sa akin, the odds aren't in my favor and ayoko namang yun yung maging basehan kung baket ako mamamatay. I wanna have to do things and I want to survive probably along with my best friend Dawn.

Cheska: Rea, tumahan ka na! Wala ding mangyayari kung ganyan ka ng ganyan.

Rea: Walang mangyayari? Anung gagawin ko Cheska? Mag celebrate. MALAMANG! Akala mo ba madali. Madali yung nandito sa baba. I don't know how Joram can't even cry.
