Brittany tells Tyra that the girls all saw that Tiffany had given up. Keenyah interviews that Tiffany's heart wasn't in it, and that the girls really have to be aggressive and make opportunities for themselves. Tyra tells the girls that they need to give their all and fight until the end. Kahlen interviews that being on a hokey reality show is something that she's only going to do once in her life (yeah, tell it to Rob and Amber), and that she wants to prove that even though she's not as pretty as some of the other girls are, she can succeed. Tyra initiates a group hug, and when they link to one another "Hands Across America"-style, the girls can almost fit their collective arms around her. Almost. And I must admit that I am in a huge state of shock that Mama Banks did not appear in this segment in some capacity.
Michelle says that she feels a lot better, and that even if she's eliminated, she'll feel good about herself. Keenyah jokingly doubts this, given Michelle's bent towards being extremely hard on herself. Michelle says that she's been working on that, and confessionalizes that she's trying to stop beating herself up over things that she can't change. Acceptance of the she-nis is the first step, after all, in the 12-step "XXY Anonymous" group she's been attending. We get flashbacks of some of Michelle's breakdowns. She says that her self-confidence has increased over the course of the competition, and that she hopes the judges recognize this. She then says, "I feel beautiful now," all the while resembling an albino Lou Ferrigno.
Brittany tells us that she, Keenyah, and Christina are now going to move into the otherwise empty Bel-Air room with Tatiana, and this is doubtlessly a production move to create more drama. As they carry great piles of clothes into the room, Tatiana lies on her bed with a look of displeasure. She interviews that the other girls are really close and have lots of fun together, but that they've instituted a "teeth only" policy that excludes her from the group. She says that she is bummed.
