Next is the casting for Siki Im, who tells the girls that he used to live in Oxford. That's where Sophie is from, and she smiles and giggles and chats about the whole thing, as you do. We then cut to Alisha confessionalizing that there's a bit of fakery going on, which she doesn't appreciate. This isn't acting class, she says, so there's no need to overact. I kind of doubt that she's actually talking about Sophie in that clip, but who knows. The effort to build up a rivalry between those two leads me to believe that they may be the final contenders, which is an exciting prospect. Siki explains that he'll be presenting a menswear collection, so it's important for the models to feel the vibe of his clothes. When Seymone walks, Siki asks her not to move her hands from side to side so much, and then Sophie does a really fantastic impression of hand-bobbing, lick-lipping, crazy-looking, catwalking Seymone. You know who is not thrilled about anyone today? Cutrone. She says that all the girls need to step it up, and there was not one "slayer" amongst the bunch. She didn't see a "Bam!," and as she expresses her frustration in a raspberry-esque fashion, we head to commercials.
When we return, Cutrone spends the ten minutes before the opening girls are announced engaging in a critique of the castings. She tells Eboni that her face was fierce when she walked, and not in a good way. She needs to keep her face relaxed, and drop the trout pout. Catherine went where only one in 1,000 models has gone and tripped. This will not do. If she has a problem with her shoe or something, says Cutrone, she should let the designer know before she goes out and stumbles in front of the entire city of L.A. Seymone's walk is simply not happening, and Cutrone tells her to stop swinging her arms so much. As expected, Seymone does not take this news too well and instantly transitions to a stank mood. After Cutrone leaves, Seymone says in a rather defensive manner that she's new to modeling so of course her walk isn't on point and that's why she's working on it. Oh! And it turns out Cutrone is actually skulking about around the corner, as she is wont to do, and taking it all in. All of the other girls seem to be in agreement that Seymone is a pain in the ass, and Laura points out that if influential people see your damn stank mood on display, they're not going to want to work with you. Annaliese tells Seymone that her mood now is reminiscent of her mood in Toronto, which was also stank. She interviews that Seymone is hard work, big sign.
