  2. The girls had a photoshoot done by Holly Randall and the judges chose Allie Eve Knox as the winner. Veronica Vain revealed she had been given an offer she couldn't refuse and wanted to leave the competition, so no contestant was eliminated. The judges invited David Caspian to join the guys in a strip club in this episode and learn how to dance as a male stripper.
