The Final Four! Seriously, this cycle just flew by. Only one more episode after this. I’m excited.

Sam excited over her “digital art” at home. She hopes that she’ll win. The girls note that Marj has finallly faced the bottom two and McKey has not. Marjorie is trying to calm down and be less twitchy. Good.

Tyra Mail! it is actually Tyra Post now apparently. “A model who knows how to sell makes the most sense. Love, Tyra”. Heh, clever. Analeigh and Marjorie kind of cue the challenge with a quiet discussion about hiding Marjorie’s twitchiness. She needs to be interesting, but not boring. Analeigh tells her it is just acting. Speaking of acting, the challenge! They meet with Paulina, who is in a room of curiously stocked tables of raw fish, toilet paper, and other random items. Paulina will teach them how to incorporate senses into selling things wordlessly. First they have to smell the nasty raw fish and pretend to be invigorated by the scent. Analeigh does it quickly. ” I hate fish.” Ha. McKey tells her that it smells like the beach. The girls look pretty hilarious smelling the fish. Next is the toilet paper table. They pose with it and generally look weird. They go to a table with a phone. Paulina says that McKey portrayed the senses in a modelesque way, where every movement was a pose. Marjorie’s emotions were very accessible, Analeigh was a very natural actress, but didn’t really make it modelly. Sam was just a clown, and did well with happy poses.

Tyra Mail! I mean Tyra Post! “Your delivery better be on the Mark. Love, Tyra” The girls all interview and confess about how they want to do well. They go to a building, where they meet Paulina at Amsterdam Worldwide, an ad agency, The creative director, Richard Gorodecky, explains the idea of the commercial that they are “auditioning” for. By the way, does it bother anyone else that names are never capitalized when they introduce people? Proper nouns people! Anyways, the idea for the commercial is that they are exercising and running on a sidewalk when they notice a cute guy in a taxi beside them. They have to silently flirt with gestures to the man. The taxi stops, and the guy gets out. The girls have to run up and plant a big fat kiss on the guy and then get in the taxi and drive away. All of this is done without speaking. The guy that they are kissing is supermodel Mark Vanderloo. Sam is weirded out by the idea of kissing a supermodel. The winner of the challenge gets a $10,000 shopping spree at G-Star, which is famous for its denim. Sweet.

Sam is up first. She wonders to the girls whether she’s supposed to kiss with tongue or without. Analeigh just kind of wags her head around in excitement. The girls do the “running” on a treadmill. Sam’s was nice and bubbly, but was a little bit too exaggerated and over the top. She kisses him extremely enthusiastically. They ask Mark how she did. “Very convincing”. Ha. Mark is both fairly attractive and has a sense of humor. Cool points! Sam tells the girls that she loved it. Ha.

Analeigh is up next. She does a cute double take at the beginning, and then looks really cute on the treadmill. She does very well. The judges like it. “His lips were quite soft and voluptuous and I enjoyed it rather a lot.” She tells the girls that he is an excellent kisser. Sam agrees.

McKey looks really weird on the treadmill. I just noticed how tiny that treadmill was. Her acting wasn’t as good. Hers was ok.

Marjorie looks so awkward flirting with him, its really funny. She gets off the treadmill and seriously lunges at this guy like he’s food and she’s starving. She twitches and nervously giggles afterwards. It’s actually kind of cute and endearing. Usually her twitchiness can be a bit irritating. Marjorie is happy.

Paulina says that Sam was a little bit over the top and hammy, Analeigh did very well and is a good actress, McKey looked like she was acting, and Marjorie was scary sometimes but was very original. Marjorie wins! Wow, I expected Analeigh to win. Marjorie shares her prize with Analeigh anyways. They go to G-Star and split the money evenly. Aw that’s really nice. Marjorie and Analeigh seem to be winning all of the lucrative challenges. Extremely expensive Diamond necklaces, $16,000 worth of designer clothing which I’m sure got shared between the two, and now this shopping spree. They must have one heck of a new wardrobe. Marjorie tells us that she and Analeigh are best buds. Aw, I love Marjaleigh.

Tyra Post! “Tomorrow, you’ll be going Dutch but you’ll have to give 100%.” Marjorie decides to call some boys over. She calls the boys that brought them around in boats to go-sees and asks them to come over. “I need Pinot Noir!” For being only 19 or 20, I don’t think Marjorie should be so into alcohol. The guys come over with food and a lot of alcohol. McKey notes that she, Sam. and Analeigh all do not drink. Marjorie is getting drunk. The girls start off the evening with charades. How exciting. Analeigh tells us that she and Marjorie were putting heels on one of the drunk boys and making him do runway, McKey was full out wrestling with one of the guys (headlocks and all), and Sam was doing magic tricks. Wow. Then, they started drinking. They play truth or dare, and Marjorie has to kiss a guy for 10 seconds. They keep going. Analeigh interviews that the boys and Marjorie start drinking more. Analeigh takes her eyes off of Marjorie for 2 seconds and turns around only to find that Marjorie is now in the bathtub fully clothed with one of the guys. Good lord. The guy, whose name is Bernard, tells Marjorie “C’mon, lets get married.” Whoa, this is getting really weird. Analeigh tries to help out Marj, but then the other two guys try convincing her that it’s not a big deal. Analeigh tells one of the guys that tries pulling her away that Marjorie is not making good choices and that Analeigh is trying to keep Marj from making an ass out of herself. The guy tries to tell her that it’s not her responsibility, but Analeigh assertively yet kindly tells him that it kind of is. Analeigh confesses that she’s looking out for her best friend even though it’s a competition. Analeigh is truly an angel. I wish she was my best friend. Marjorie is still in the tub with the half-naked Bernard. She quite hilariously does a campy sigh, rolls her eyes, and says “Alright alright…embrace me.” HA! I feel like this is the watered down version of Shandi’s “YOU HAD SEX?!?!” ala Cycle two. This time, Analeigh is April with the whole “Ding! Hold on Shandi, you have a boyfriend!” thing. With a little bit of prodding, Analeigh gets Sam and McKey to help kick out the boys. The situation starts getting sloppy. McKey threatens to pull the guys out by his trousers. Eventually they all stumble out of the house and the girls help Marjorie dry off.

The next morning, Marjorie admits that she knew she could depend on the girls when she got drunk because they were sober. They head off to the countryside, where they have a photoshoot with a windmill in the background. Highlights-

Analeigh does very well. She has a rake for a prop. Jay says that she tried a lot and was dynamic. At the end, Analeigh asks if she’s aloud to jump. Jay loves it.

Marjorie doesn’t get any props, which is not fair. Jay says that she looked drunk. She kind of titters and laughs. Jay is not impressed with her.

Sam is wearing a clear plastic jacket. It’s really weird. Sam also doesn’t really get any props until the end. Sam’s clogs were hurting her feet and the pain showed on her face. she does not do well. She cries to Sutan that she didn’t do well. I love Sutan. They need to have more of him on the show.

McKey gets a windmill, a chain, and a ton of other props to work with. That is not fair. She gets to hang off of the windmill, swing the chain, and hang off of walls. She does well and uses her unfair prop advantage to her benefit.

Sam and Marjorie both interview about how nervous they are. Marjorie drinks wine.

Judging. Prizes, judges. Ann Shoket of 17 Magazine is the guest judges.

McKey- McKey looks kind of like Elvis in person. Her photo gets raves.

Marjorie- Her photo has a very alienesque, haunting, editorial photo. It’s a bit creepy, and the judges think that she’s being boring this week because she’s not being twitchy. She totally called it earlier in the episode.

Sam- Her photo has the whole broken down doll look. Her film was ok and Tyra loves her down turned mouth.

Analeigh- She’s wearing suspenders, which I love. Analeigh’s photo is one her jumping photos. The judges love it a lot. Ann Shoket clearly loves Analeigh.

During panel, the judges love Analeigh. However, Miss Jay doesn’t think that she’s taken too many good pictures. This next part confuses me. Tyra has seemed to dislike Analeigh since the start, and yet she tells Miss Jay that she takes great pictures. That’s not weird, but the way she, Paulina and Nigel stand up for her looks incredibly incredibly fake, like they are acting. I think that because Ann Shoket likes her, they like her.Sam has consistently done well, but her film wasn’t good. Marjorie has a special something, but has lost her charm. Ann says that Marjorie is condescending. What?! That’s like calling Analeigh a slut. They like McKey, and Tyra notes that McKey has Joker lips. YES.

Call out order-

Analeigh

McKey

Sam

Marjorie

This was definitely one of the saddest eliminations ever. Marjaleigh was broken apart, and seeing Analeigh sob is so upsetting. It was nice that McKey and Sam gave them a little moment to mourn their separation. As they show all of Marjorie’s pictures, it’s nice to see how stunning her photos were.

So now we’re left with Analeigh, McKey, and Sam. What do you guys think about our final three? Personally, I’m pretty satisfied with this finale. It’s been a great cycle and I think the final 3 are all pretty deserving. Analeigh for the win!
