Many of the girls broke down in tears after seeing their mothers. After the photo shoot, Jonathan takes the girls and their mothers to Kirketon hotel for drinks and followed by to Summit Restaurant for a dinner.
At the judging panel, the elimination challenge was the photos taken at the boxing match. None of the girls did exceptionally well in the photo shoot. Paloma was told her mother was better than her. In the end the judges couldn't decide who to send home, Danica or Paloma, resulting in a unanimous vote. Danica was sent home because she hadn't improved enough.
The episode starts with Paloma stating that Steph should have been in the bottom two during the last elimination, which leads to an argument between the two. The girls taken to Sydney Cafe and they meet up with Jodhi, and learn that the theme for this week is movement and dance. They are taken to Dance Studio for a dance lesson where they meet dance teacher Ramon Doringo who teaches them dance moves. For the challenge in the following day, the girls have to do a photo shoot in a small box while creating a unique pose that filled the entire box.

Jordan shone in the photo shoot and was rewarded by participating in a fashion show for Bonds underwear, she chose Steph to do it with her. The others had to work behind the scenes at the show.
For the photo shoot the girls were put into harnesses and were suspended above the ground. They were given a parasol and were swung across the room. Alice was stiff, Paloma and Jordan however did the best. For judging the girls had to do a runway walk while dancing. The girls were evaluated on both their box and flying shoots. Most of the girls excelled in one but flopped in the other. In the end Paloma and Steph H were in the bottom two. Steph H marked her first appearance in bottom two. Paloma was deemed the weakest and was sent home but in true Paloma fashion, she stated that she was eliminated for being too good.
The four remaining girls are given an acting lesson by Paul Goddard
, who taught them various lessons about emotion and acting. Jonathan continues coaching the girls' illustrating them how to present themselves. They had to convince others that they were Australia's Next Top Model and hold up a conversation with "Marc Jacobs
" (Jonathan) at a pretend cocktail party.
The girls had to meet top fashion experts and had to talk about themselves in less than a minute, essentially a speed go-see. They meet Sara Mulcahy, editor of Sunday Magazine, Inez Garcia, fashion director of Sunday Magazine, Grant Pearce, publisher of Vogue Australia, and Bruno Schiavari, leading Australia fashion designer. Alice was shy, trying to ask the editors about them more than telling about herself; Steph H managed to ramble on with interjections of "like" everywhere"; Anika kept the dialogue going in a friendly manner but was somewhat nervous; Jordan couldn't muster enough conversation between the fashion experts, especially with Inez Garcia where most of the minute was spent in silence.
Ultimately, the four fashion experts awarded the prize, Steph H and Anika have a photoshoot with Sunday Magazine. Jordan and Alice were punished by working out in the pool with trainer, and Jordan struggled as usual.
The photo shoot of the week was for Bonds Men's Underwear with Ian Thorpe
as the client. The models got assigned to an emotion in a boyfriend scenario with a male model. Anika struggled with "contentment", whilst others all excelled in nailing the emotion for the photo shoot.
In the judging challenge, the girls had to convey emotions with another male actor James Mitchell
, and change their expression immediately when the judges called out an emotion. Alice excelled, to the judges' surprise, while Anika was less than convincing. She and Jordan stepped in bottom two for their second time in a row. Anika was sent home for a poor performance during the week.
The three remaining girls are finally told they were heading off to Los Angeles
, and there will be no lessons, only challenges. They had three main challenges. Once they were off the plane, they were sent to LA's Napoleon Perdis store to act as live mannequins. They are dressed by stylist Mandi Line.
At first the girls disappoint Napoleon and Mandi, however after being criticised halfway through, they pick up their game, attracting crowds of passersby, even stopping traffic. In the end both Napoleon and Mandi were impressed with all the girls and found it hard to choose a favourite.
The next day, Jodhi came to tell the girls that they had go-sees with LA's 2 top model agencies, Nous Models and LA Models. First they met Kenya Knight from Nous Models, who Jordan thought was "nice". Next they went to LA Models' Crista Klayman, who seemed to take account of their presence and walk. Alice seemed to the agents as too high fashion and tall for L.A., and stated she could only work in cities such as Paris
or Milan
. Steph was criticized for her hip measurements by Kenya, but made it up with her portfolio. Jordan got a good response because she was described by Kenya and Krista as perfect for the L.A. market. Later that day, they had a series of three go-sees to some LA designers. Ashley Paige booked Jordan for a show and Dom Deluca stated that the America's Next Top Model girls were "Mall Rats" compared to the Australian girls.
The following day, they were off to their first international photo shoot where Napoleon Perdis greeted and showed them around his beautiful Hollywood hills house. Napoleon introduced them to Darren Tieste, their photographer, and Charlie Altuna, their stylist. Charlie briefed them on the theme of the day's photo shoot, which was Modern Hollywood glamour, with clothes straight off the catwalk of international labels with the likes of Gucci and Chanel.
During their hair and makeup session, Napoleon asked Jordan about who she thinks should go home. Alice, being nearby, gradually builds up anger from the remarks. Steph H. also adds her opinion about Alice and who should go home, and it escalates into a verbal fight for the final Top Model position as Alice retaliates and defends herself stating that Jordan wasn't competition and Steph H. was dumb because she says stupid things and she didn't know if Chile was a country or not. During the photo shoot, Jordan was reminded to be careful in some of her poses, Steph H being told she looked like a "sex kitten" and relied on established looks while Alice excelled. Charlie strongly favored Alice, except commenting she would be more suitable in Paris or New York markets.
The next day, the three models were flown back to Australia for their judging panel. All the judges were impressed by the photos, especially Alice's and Jordan's. Alex Perry especially liked the way the pose elongates Jordan's body length. Their judging challenge was the question "Why should you be Australia's Next Top Model?"
During deliberation, the judges felt torn between the unique contrasting styles of the three models in front of them. They felt that Alice excelled in the photo and the collected, calm, thoughtful speech she gave won her impression points. The judges agreed that Jordan's photo is her strongest in the competition, but judges felt that the hair and outfit didn't do justice to Steph H.
Alice was chosen first for the final two. After a hard deliberation the judges finally decided to keep Steph, and Jordan was eliminated. For one more final twist, it is revealed that viewer votes will be combined with the judges scores to decide Australia's Next Top Model.
The show began with the girls going to auditions for Australia's fashion week, the Alex Perry and Fashion Assassin shows. The first go-see was at Fashion Assassin, where both the girls got the job. They next went to Alex Perry and were both chosen again although there were questions about Steph's height and age for the shoot. At the Alex Perry show Alice excelled but Steph had a harder time due to a broken shoe. At the Fashion Assassin show Steph excelled and even Alice pulled through as Alex said bringing expensive to the cheap. Then, the live show began. Alex and Jez had a fight over the issue of Steph's height and age for the catwalk of haute couture in Europe and in Australia.
Then, the introduced the original line-up of girls, interviewed them for a while and after that introduced all the eliminated contestants, except Kara, but they were joined by Jaimi. They were all asked who they thought should win and the majority said Steph. Then they took a look at some clips of the tantrums and drama in the house. They took one last look at the girls' modeling portfolios then asked Napoleon Perdis, Priscilla and Kirstie Clements to cast their votes, and all three said Alice. Jonathan, Jez & Jodhi all gave their votes to Steph and Alex & Charlotte gave theirs to Alice.
The two girls then had to summarize why they thought they should win, Steph burst into tears. Jodhi announced that the judges' votes and the viewers' votes will be added together and the winner would appear upon the screen. After a moment Alice's picture appeared upon the screen as Australia's Next Top Model.

They meet Sara Mulcahy, editor of Sunday Magazine, Inez Garcia, fashion director of Sunday Magazine, Grant Pearce, publisher of Vogue Australia, and Bruno Schiavari, leading Australia fashion designer. Alice was shy, trying to ask the editors about them more than telling about herself; Steph H managed to ramble on with interjections of "like" everywhere"; Anika kept the dialogue going in a friendly manner but was somewhat nervous; Jordan couldn't muster enough conversation between the fashion experts, especially with Inez Garcia where most of the minute was spent in silence.
Ultimately, the four fashion experts awarded the prize, Steph H and Anika have a photoshoot with Sunday Magazine. Jordan and Alice were punished by working out in the pool with trainer, and Jordan struggled as usual.

, and there will be no lessons, only challenges. They had three main challenges. Once they were off the plane, they were sent to LA's Napoleon Perdis store to act as live mannequins. They are dressed by stylist Mandi Line.
At first the girls disappoint Napoleon and Mandi, however after being criticised halfway through, they pick up their game, attracting crowds of passersby, even stopping traffic. In the end both Napoleon and Mandi were impressed with all the girls and found it hard to choose a favourite.
The next day, Jodhi came to tell the girls that they had go-sees with LA's 2 top model agencies, Nous Models and LA Models. First they met Kenya Knight from Nous Models, who Jordan thought was "nice". Next they went to LA Models' Crista Klayman, who seemed to take account of their presence and walk. Alice seemed to the agents as too high fashion and tall for L.A., and stated she could only work in cities such as Paris

. Steph was criticized for her hip measurements by Kenya, but made it up with her portfolio. Jordan got a good response because she was described by Kenya and Krista as perfect for the L.A. market. Later that day, they had a series of three go-sees to some LA designers. Ashley Paige booked Jordan for a show and Dom Deluca stated that the America's Next Top Model girls were "Mall Rats" compared to the Australian girls.
The following day, they were off to their first international photo shoot where Napoleon Perdis greeted and showed them around his beautiful Hollywood hills house. Napoleon introduced them to Darren Tieste, their photographer, and Charlie Altuna, their stylist. Charlie briefed them on the theme of the day's photo shoot, which was Modern Hollywood glamour, with clothes straight off the catwalk of international labels with the likes of Gucci and Chanel.
During their hair and makeup session, Napoleon asked Jordan about who she thinks should go home. Alice, being nearby, gradually builds up anger from the remarks. Steph H. also adds her opinion about Alice and who should go home, and it escalates into a verbal fight for the final Top Model position as Alice retaliates and defends herself stating that Jordan wasn't competition and Steph H. was dumb because she says stupid things and she didn't know if Chile was a country or not. During the photo shoot, Jordan was reminded to be careful in some of her poses, Steph H being told she looked like a "sex kitten" and relied on established looks while Alice excelled. Charlie strongly favored Alice, except commenting she would be more suitable in Paris or New York markets.
The next day, the three models were flown back to Australia for their judging panel. All the judges were impressed by the photos, especially Alice's and Jordan's. Alex Perry especially liked the way the pose elongates Jordan's body length. Their judging challenge was the question "Why should you be Australia's Next Top Model?"
During deliberation, the judges felt torn between the unique contrasting styles of the three models in front of them. They felt that Alice excelled in the photo and the collected, calm, thoughtful speech she gave won her impression points. The judges agreed that Jordan's photo is her strongest in the competition, but judges felt that the hair and outfit didn't do justice to Steph H.
Alice was chosen first for the final two. After a hard deliberation the judges finally decided to keep Steph, and Jordan was eliminated. For one more final twist, it is revealed that viewer votes will be combined with the judges scores to decide Australia's Next Top Model.
