The Girl Who Got Five Frames is the 6th episode of Cycle 21. It aired on September 22, 2014.
Plot[]
The models must produce the perfect hair whip during a wind-blown photo shoot -- but one model only receives five frames; the models receive a chance to be the face of Nick Cannon's new ad campaign.
Synopsis[]
The episode starts with Lenox, who was almost eliminated last week due to Romeo's disqualification but got to stay, but was given a penalty of only five frames by a wrathful Tyra. Given only five frames to get a good shot this week, she’s understandably nervous. It's revealed that her father passed away right before she came on the show and her firefighter mother is struggling with money. Lenox hopes that she'll win this week's challenge by a landslide or she's going home.
Mirjana and Denzel continue their tryst while Kari and Keith get closer and closer. So close that, in Romeo’s absence, his room is rearranged into some kind of “lovers’ suite.”
For the photoshoot this week, Yu Tsai greets the models for a rock ’n’ roll photoshoot that he describes as “avant-garde.” Saddled with torn jeans and Ricky’s reject weaves, the models must whip their hair in slow motion. Most of the models pull it off, but Yu Tsai insists that Denzel was the only one who looked natural.
Lenox struggles, though, and has a breakdown about only getting five frames to nail the shoot. Yu Tsai drops his "abusive-boyfriend act" for a hot second, delivering an impassioned speech about how crying doesn’t mean you’re weak. Lenox gets back up and nails every single frame.
Meanwhile, Keith keeps giving the same Blue Steel face in all his shots and keeps cramming football metaphors into his confessionals since he used to be in the NFL.
For the challenge this week, which features Nick Cannon selling some Beats by Dre rip-off headphones. The contestants must create an ad for the new audio equipment.
They’re split into three teams led by Adam, Ben and the newly self-actualized Lenox. Ben makes sure to recruit Will because “he has great fashion sense.” Lenox is stuck with Matthew and Kari, while Adam gets everyone else.
Ben takes a picture of people hanging out by a pool, and Adam takes a picture of people partying. But after being a tad indecisive Lenox actually does something interesting.
Unfortunately, the audio equipment's built-in camera is horrible and everyone’s photos look like they’re using the BlurryAsPhuck filter. Lenox wins the challenge.
Judging starts this week with the usual incoherent babble from the judges: Tyra tosses a mean word, critiquing Keith about “a wind-tunnel of weirdness in your mouth.” Kelly Cutrone gets right to the heart of it, telling Ben, “You look like a drag bar owner from The Flintstones.”
Adam and Ben interrupt judging to sing a song they wrote about their experience on Top Model. Tyra seems to eat it up, though, and forces the models to all dance.
Lenox gets the first call-out, while Keith and Ben wind up on the bottom two, with Ben being eliminated.
