Asia's Next Top Model Cycle 4 Episode 2

The Girl Who Bounced Back

Back to the house, the models were relieved that none of them were eliminated, especially Gwen. Mai Ngo took the opportunity to apologize to the other girls about her attitude earlier that week, although Tuti doubted the sincerity of her apology. They received Cindy Mail metioning "bouncing", and were later brought to the AMPED Park , Singapore's first indoor trampoline park. They were greeted by Kelly and a personal trainer for a lesson about composure and elegance while jumping on the trampoline. Jessica sprained her ankle while on the trampoline and had to be taken to the hospital. Many of the girls thought Jessica injured herself on purpose so that she would not have to partake in the lesson.

Kelly revealed that their challenge for the week would take place in the stadium itself. The girls had to pose while jumping from the trampoline. Tuti, Tugs and Patricia struggled. Jessica didn't participate in the challenge because she was still in hospital. Angie won the challenge and was rewarded a $1,000 shopping spree from Zalora.

While reviewing their challenge scores for that week, Jessica returned from the hospital and noticed that she was given a 0 for not participating. Tension brewed between Jessica and the other girls when Gwen said that Jessica had told her she was "happy" to have gotten injured because she would not have to participate in the lesson. This lead to the girls, particularly Gwen and Alaiza, talking behind Jessica's back all week.

At the photo shoot the bouncing theme continued, and the girls had to pose gracefully in mid-air while jumping on a trampoline at the top of SCAPE Singapore. Mai Ngo and her extensive dancing background impressed Kelly immensely, with Angie, May and Julian also impressing. Patricia struggled with timing and was told by Kelly that her performance was very weak. Jessica, who was still on crutches, was allowed to pose at the edge of the trampoline with either a wheelchair or her crutches, much to the dismay of the other girls.

Before judging, Jessica told the girls that she knew they had been talking about her behind her back, and that she wouldn't demand an apology from them because she was only there for the competition. The girls dismissed this, with Julian openly admitting that she hoped Jessica would be sent home. At panel, the judges applauded Angie's improvement and also praised Mai Ngo and Julian, while criticizing Tugs, Aldilla, Patricia and Tawan for their weak photographs. Tugs' photo reminded the judges of a "squashed frog". Jessica's photograph impressed the judges, but she was reprimanded for not participating in the challenge. Ultimately, Tugs and Jessica wound up in the bottom two. Although Tugs had been 4 points ahead of Jessica in the challenge, Jessica's score from the judges put her ahead of Tugs, who was subsequently sent home.

The Girl Who Had No Bad

The top fourteen models arrived at the Singapore Sports Hub and were greeted by editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar Singapore Kenneth Goh and model Kelly Tandiono, who revealed that she will be a permanent judge for the remainder of the competition. The girls were then introduced to the host, model Cindy Bishop who walked down an uneven runway with multiple edges. The girls were set their first challenge - in which they had to walk down the same runway and pose at each edge. Patricia, Tawan and Tuti impressed the judges, while Maya was castigated for not looking like a model.

The girls moved into their new house in the South Beach Hotel. Sang-in was left without a bed, as there were only thirteen beds available. The girls then received their first Cindy Mail. Cindy told the girls about a major change in the show format: a scoring system, with each girl receiving a score of 1 to 10 based on their performance at challenges and photo shoots. Cindy then announced that the girl with the lowest score for the challenge that took place earlier would be immediately eliminated. The challenge scores were revealed, with Patricia getting the highest score at 9.5, and therefore winning the challenge, and Maya the lowest at 3.3, meaning she was out of the competition.

The next day, the girls participated in their first photo shoot, the theme of which was "Fashion Transcends Time"; they were styled in 60's fashion in a giant bubble suspended high up. Patricia's shoot entertained the judges, while Tuti and Aldilla impressed as well. Mai Ngo was praised for her creativity, while Angie was criticised for posing in an inappropriate way for her skirt. Tugs, Tawan and Gwen all failed to impress. Back at the house, Alaiza noticed that Mai Ngo was taking all the house's food supply for herself and didn't share with the others. She told the rest of the girls about this and they considered talking to Mai Ngo about her behaviour.


At judging panel, Tuti, Alaiza, Aldilla and Patricia were all lauded for their performances, while Angie was reprimanded for her inappropriate posing. Backstage, while waiting for the judges to calculate their scores, Alaiza, Angie and Tuti confronted Mai Ngo about her behavior. Tuti received the highest score of the week, while Angie and Gwen landed in the bottom two. Cindy handed the last photograph to Angie, eliminating Gwen. However, in a twist Cindy revealed that Gwen was saved from elimination, because Maya already eliminated on that week
