Americas Next Top Model, As the girls return home, it seems that Lisa is back at it again in a cycle of 5: getting very drunk. Take a couple of bottles of wine and as it appears that she will soon be talking to Cousin Itt again, the former “alcoholic bit*h” reveals that she does not fall into the good ole drink.

Just as the other girls are making a toast (presumably at home Isis), Lisa decides to sit this one out. We are all very happy to have overcome her addiction to Lisa, as long as the promise of being even as crazy as you sober as you are drunk. Please urinate more adult-sized diapers.
Along with drinks waiting for the girls back home, many of them are happy to find packages from home. While most of the girls open the boxes to find clothes and other goodies diverse Camille box is only a reminder of her 33 years old: the bills. In a confessional, the cycle of 2 All Star cranky about how an adult and can not afford to be as carefree as some of the other girls. Hopefully the judges do not learn that she is 33, because the last time you heard that someone cut off was 25 just before the end.
It turns out that Kayla is also not feeling so great after the last elimination. Like, really. As she begins to vomit, all the girls start going crazy and eventually even an ambulance ride. She returned around 2 am with Laura (Laura is a sweet heart. I want her by my bed if ever in a hospital) and while all your hugs for her return, you know that everyone is hoping that she was home because she is a lesbian fierce competition. Also, congratulations to Camille, not even to put down her fork with food on it to embrace Kayla when she enters the kitchen.

Challenge the girls of the week is to memorize a scene from “CSI:. Crime Scene Investigation” According to Laura who is “the most important role as an eternity.” Almost all the girls pretty horrendous, sans Angelee and Bre. The best reading through humor goes to Dominique, however. In her confession, he says, “God forbid if I hear her [the pseudo-famous producer or director who was facilitating the challenge] e-mail because he would be sending all my videos of hearing.” Dominique, I sent her videos of hearing. I bet you’re very funny. Brasilia!

Bre wins the challenge, but honorable mention goes to Angelee. Who knew that Little Miss Buffalo could provide a little talent for interpretation. And I love the fact that Tyra perplexed young again with medical terms in a performance challenge, as it did in cycle 3. Seen this trick before Tyty, but I still love it.

For the photo shoot, the girls are Express, the label the winner gets a campaign. They are each assigned to the bride, dating, society or cool girl to embody. Male models are also involved, with what some testosterone for all estrogen-driven.

Most of the photos were pretty forgettable or memorable for the wrong reasons. It looked like the picture of Bre containing the flirting going to give one of the male models work together. Bianca and it looked like the Cheshire cat when trying to communicate to flirt with the eyes and mouth.

Best hand photo below was Angelee, who brought the 716 area code, both the challenge and photo shoot. He describes himself as a character of society “716 humble, but moved to New York and became a real rich btch.” Of course it was worth it, as it was called first in the panel.

Below, two were Camille and Lisa, that was expected of her editions of this episode. Camille was criticized for not being able to convey the same model in the photos as it does in person, while cousin Lisa, excuse the monster came out to play this week. In the end, Lisa was saved and Camille, 33 years old, was sent home to take her signature walk back home, where she will have to pay those bills more and more adults.
