It's the moment you've been waiting for: the Top Model charity flag football challenge! Awww yeah, bitches. The girls head to Long Beach where they meet apparently still living Brittny Gastineau and "fiercely real" model Julie Henderson, who tell them the rules of engagement. They break into two teams, and are joined by both the previously eliminated contestants and four NLF players who divide themselves up to make things fair. The Red Team includes Shannon, Kayla, Alexandria and Lisa, while the Blue Team includes Bre, Laura, Angelea, and Bianca. Angelea can barely concentrate, because the presence of testosterone has made her so randy. The winning team will get $5,000 to be split across the charities represented by the two NFL players who are with them. There's also a modeling element: when a flag is thrown and a girl's name is called, she'll have to strike a pose (with an NFL player) for a nearby photographer. The winner of the individual challenge will get some tacky Gastineau bling, along with a campaign on Tyra's "Type (WT)F" website. I know, people, I know.

The girls get VERY rough during the game, with Bianca blaming Lisa at least three times (once "just because"). Still, Lisa scores the first touchdown for the Red Team. Bre throws a touchdown pass for Blue, tying things up, and then with seconds left the Blue Team scores another touchdown and wins the game. Kayla wins the individual challenge and the title of Most Valuable Model, much to her delight. To our non-delight, we then see Kayla participate in an infomercial for Type(WT)F.com, also starring Andre Leon Talley, who you think would be above this ****. Maybe this is why he's not coming back next year?

For the week's photo shoot, the girls are going to have to display some bitchitude and aggression with each other, and with famous supermodel co-star Coco Rocha! It turns out that Coco also teaches posing classes, and she tells the girls to try mouthing vowels when they can't think of anything else to do. Shannon and Bianca are paired up first, and clearly have some Crying Christian beef to draw on. They're a little too timid at first, and their photographer tells them to scream. They do, and things seem to get better. And everyone is friendly in the end, hooray. Kayla and Allison are paired, much to Kayla's chagrin. They can't get in a rhythm, and look very amateur compared to Coco, though Kayla turns it out in the end. Angelea is paired with Laura, and winds up being intimidated and devoid of energy. She starts crying, and Jay gives her a little pep talk about self-worth. After that, she kills it. Alexandria and Bre are paired, and Bre is so intense that she even scares Coco. Lisa and Dominique are last, and Jay deems them the perfect trio. At panel, Dominique and Lisa get the most love of all, and Dominique is called first. Bre and Alexandria land in the bottom two, and the spirit-devoid Bre gets the axe. Aw, crap, there goes my top spot in the Top Model pool. And then Bre leaves before Tyra can even give her a talking to! Way to do it, lady.
