As the girls get outfitted and styled, Fatima takes a cab back to meet with the consulate. She's afraid that her appointment will take all day, and that by the time she gets back the shoot will be over. Cut back to the shoot. The girls have the cutest sort of '60s inspired clothes, hats, and luggage. Bill Heuberger will be the photographer for the day. Jay tells the girls to be energized and look like they're having fun, despite the fact that it's freezing. Whitney plans to stick out and make the other girls look bad.
Lauren is first in the spotlight position, and has to be reminded to hide her bum thumb. She reminds us that she was in the bottom two last week, and admits that her picture sucked. Jay thinks she did okay at the shoot, particularly since she was dealing with her throbbing wound. Stacy-Ann is next in the spotlight. Turns out her eyes are very sensitive to wind, and are tearing all over the place and running her makeup. She also tells us that this is the coldest she's been in her whole life, but she still had to look beautiful. Jay says that Stacy-Ann was posing again, and didn't sell. Meanwhile, Fatima rushes to the consulate's office at 8:59.
Whitney is very dramatic during the shoot, because she wants to bring attention to herself. Usually the plus-sized models get cut, she says, and she doesn't want that to be her. Jay thinks she is posing a bit like Miss Plus-Sized America. It's the first week that Whitney slid back as opposed to moving forward. Anya is next to be featured and tears it up. She was trying to be creative and think outside the box, she tells us. With Anya, I think a little boxing wouldn't necessarily hurt. Meanwhile, at 12:45 p.m., Fatima has her travel document! She hopes that she can make it back to the shoot. I feel like Tyra will facilitate a traffic jam just to prevent such a happy ending from occurring.
Back at the shoot, Dominique is giving Jay Remedial Posing 101. It's something that you'd expect a model to do, but never really want a model to do, he says. Everything that Dominique does is something that we expect but don't want, isn't it? At 2:06, meanwhile, Fatima is in the limo on the way back to the airport. She halfheartedly asks the driver to speed up. Fatima needs to watch more of The Amazing Race. Katarzyna is the last girl to be featured in the shoot. As Fatima rolls in at 2:55, she sees the wardrobe people leaving. She interviews that the judges base your performance on the photo shoot, so if you don't have a photo, you go home. Unless you love Jesus or are having some sort of meth withdrawal or something. Then you usually get a pass.
