The girls arrive at this Samba dance hall where dancers are rehearsing and Paulina is there and tells them they will be learning Samba. Juliana the dance instructor teaches them the basic steps and then the girls have to dance and practice what their face looks like. Paulina criticizes Celia for her age and says she's too desperate and needs to let go.

Aminat does well and is very seductive. Allison is not confident enough and Paulina says it looks bleak for her. Teyona is not very graceful and has two left feet really. Paulina tells the girls to practice their steps tonight.

Celia is feeling sensitive about her age back at the house.

Tyra Mail 'Whatever you do, don't look down'

The girls think they are dancing so they practice their steps and arrive at the location the next day and Paulina is there and tells them they have to dance without looking down and the prize is jewellery. The girls get changed and have to dance for Paulina.

Allison is first and she's a bit stiff and looks down a few times.

Celia is a bit depressed and Paulina tells her to relax. 

Aminat does a good job and she has a good sense of the dance.

Teyona is really awkward and she looks down a lot.

Paulina critiques them all saying Allison did the worst, but Celia is the winner! Aminat looks really shocked and pissed off. Celia decides to take Allison with her, but Paulina makes a face like that is not a good idea. Celia and Allison go to pick out their pieces and they are really beautiful. 

Tyra Mail! 'At some point the mama bird has to push her babies out of the nest'

Aminat is complaining about how she didn't win the challenge. She's really disappointed.

Aminat and Teyona are up the next morning and the two make-up artists come in and jump on the bed where Celia and Allison are sleeping and get them up to do hair and make-up.

They then leave the house and drive out to a remote jungle location - as Aminat says 'not jungle for TV'. There is a broken down truck up ahead and Tyra is there faking that she needs help and she tells them that she's photographing them today.

Tyra tells them about this guy she just met at a go-see who really wowed her: he's actually really hot.

The girls find out they are going to be birds covered in feathers, coming out of the nest. The girls actually look crazy.

Allison is up first and she has to squat in the nest, but she is comfortable and does a good job. When she's leaving the set she says 'you're really pretty' to Tyra, it was so cute though.

Aminat is next and she does a good job as well, but Tyra says the light hitting her face is not that appealing. 

Celia is next and she knows she needs to relax. She does well with giving Tyra angles and Tyra says she's really creative. Celia is really happy and almost starts crying.

Teyona is last and she has to disrobe a bit because the light is fading. Tyra almost falls over at one point, but Teyona does a good job as well. 

Back at the house the girls get their last Tyra Mail before judging.

The girls arrive at judging and Allison is up first. The judges love her picture and thinks she really looks like a bird.

Teyona's picture is also really good but her top half is a bit boxy for Nigel. Tyra thinks she didn't push hard enough.

Celia is up next and Nigel loves her picture. Miss Jay says she looks a bit old. 

Aminat is last and the judges love her picture as well, except for Paulina who says that her legs don't look that great.

All of the girls seem to have the same critique and the judges all like them a lot.

The judges discuss who to send off; they think Teyona has given up a bit. They talk about how Celia looks a bit older than she should do. They like Allison a lot. They do like Aminat's body very much but not her face as much.

They have made their decision and the girls come back in.

This is the final three!

1. Allison

2. Teyona

Teyona starts to cry because she's so grateful to be there.

Aminat and Celia are left. Tyra says that both girls have strength from the neck down but both have issues with their faces.

Aminat stays!

Celia has to go home. She doesn't cry and Tyra has so many nice things to say, but she suggests that she should be a designer instead and not a model. 

Next week is the final show of Cycle 12 and the last three compete for the title of America's Next Top Model.
