Exploring Greece is the 10th episode of Cycle 17 of America's Next Top Model. It aired on November 16, 2011.

Synopsis[]

The women find out they will be judged by each other during a challenge, where one of the All-Stars is confronted about her insecurities.

Plot[]

The week’s reward challenge required the girls to critique and assess each other’s modelling potential. When asked who had the least amount of potential to be America’s Next Top Model, Lisa, Laura and Allison all refused to name one person, as they felt no-one was the weakest. However, Dominique said that Angelea has the least amount of potential, owing to her lack of confidence in herself. Laura agreed with Dominique and emotionally shouted at Angelea for not knowing her worth. They got into a heated argument, causing the latter to storm out in frustration. However, when asked to statistically rate each other’s overall star-quality, Allison was ranked the weakest while Laura scored the strongest, winning the challenge. After the challenge, the girls were brought out for a day of yachting, swimming, clubbing and drinks. This week’s photo shoot required the girls to portray ancient Olympic sports. Angelea initially struggled, as did Allison, although the latter later managed to redeem herself later on in the photoshoot. Lisa was initially worried about portraying long jump, as the judges complained that her photos were getting repetitive, as she kept giving shots with her legs open, although she managed to perform well.

At panel, all of the girls managed to produce good shots, albeit all were met with mixed reactions from the judges. In the end, Angelea and Dominique landed in the bottom two. The judges felt that although Dominique had taken striking photos throughout the cycle, and stronger shots than Angelea overall, she was not as memorable, and whilst Angelea had a better personality, she tended to crack under pressure. However, Angelea was given yet another chance and Dominique was eliminated.
