The girls all gush about there being a 7-way tie for top photo.
Some of the girls start shit-talking Rio. Sandra brought up the drama a few weeks ago, and Kyla told the girls that Rio said she was stupid. Kyla then talked about how she had a brain injury from playing volleyball in high school. Jeana overhears the girls talking about Rio and tells Rio about it because she thinks that Rio would never say someone was stupid like that (hmmmm let's count how many times Rio calls Kyla stupid in this episode).
The Tyra Mail is about social media, and Tyra comes to the house to teach the girls how to do a mirror selfie right. Then, Jourdan Dunn comes into the house, and Tyra announces that the challenge will be to take mirror selfies to be used in Jourdan's business, Londunn's, ads. The winner will of course be posted on Jourdan's social media. While Kyla is doing hers, Rio has a talking head saying "Kyla doesn't really know how to take selfies. Kind of stupid" (1). Khrystyana, who has a ton of followers, tries to help Erin, who said she doesn't get social media, but Erin doesn't appreciate the help and says it's just annoying. (we don't deserve Khrystyana tbh) During the discussion about the photos, we got another Rio talking head saying that Kyla was doing a bunch of stupid stuff in her photo that everyone knows better than to do (2). The winner of the challenge was Jeana.
Kyla pulls Rio aside to confront her about being called stupid. Rio says it was a simple misunderstanding and that she didn't mean to be offensive. Rio ofc think she's overreacting and being too sensitive, but pretends to be understanding to Kyla's face.
They get another Tyra Mail that implies they'll be shooting with men. Sandra said she doesn't want to because it's disrespectful to her fiancee. Since the video referred to models being expected to have six-packs until now, Rio says "we're going to be posing w/ fatass dudes!" to which Khrystyana replied, "no, they're just normal dudes! Normal men are hot too!" Rio then said "just kidding everyone, I'm not that insensitive of a bitch." Kyla says that it proves that she wasn't really sincere in their previous conversation.
For the photo shoot, they bring out Zach Miko, who is the first brawny supermodel. Jeana gets to shoot with Zach because she won the challenge, and it will be his first shirtless shoot ever. The girls get to find their own brawny men to shoot with in a casting call, and Tyra is going to be shooting them again. During the casting, Rio says she's not into overweight guys, "they're not cute, let's work out, let's get healthy, but hey you do you boo boo."
Khrystyana expresses that she's nervous shooting with a male model because of her previous experience being molested, and she struggles during the shoot as she's worried about the man being too touchy. Sandra again talks about how worried she is about shooting with a man because of her fiancee and her religion, and she too struggles. Rio also struggles during the shoot for an unnamed reason (prob fatphobia tbh). While Kyla is shooting, Tyra tells them to start yelling movies, and Kyla yells "When's Life Size 2 coming out?!" which made Tyra crack up.
Law wasn't at panel, but they had Jourdan Dunn in as a guest judge.

I can't believe Tyra said they were neck and neck and that she was starting to wonder if Khrystyana was inconsistent...she's been consistently at/near the top EVERY WEEK. smh at least she stayed
