The Ladder of Model Success

The contestants meet posing coach Benny Ninja and contortionist Bree Robertson for a lesson on extreme posing inside fabric tubes. The following day, the posing challenge features Tarina Tarantino jewelry and handbags. Many of the girls utilize awkward poses, but Sheena's inappropriately suggestive pose gets criticized. Elina wins the challenge, and receives a handbag full of the featured jewelry for being the best. At the house, Isis is shown injecting hormones to aid in her gender transition; they make her nauseous. Elina kisses Clark during a game of truth or dare. Tensions rise when Hannah pushes Isis in the jacuzzi, and later says seemingly racist remarks, and is confronted. The photo shoot has the models hanging from a rope ladder, the images are later digitally composited to photos of a hot air balloon. At judging, after first denying that she had surgery, Sheena admits she did have breast augmentation.
