Next Top Model Review: Asia's Next Top Model Cycle 4 Episode 7

The Girl With The Diamond Smile

Back home, Tuti, Tawan and Patricia were all saddened by the departure of Aldilla, especially Tuti, who felt like she had lost a sister. At the challenge, the models were brought to the offices of Fox International Channel and Star World, the home network of Asia's Next Top Model. There they were greeted by Cindy, who later introduced them to Filipino actor Tom Rodriguez. After a brief workshop about different kinds of smiles, they were subjected to their challenge for the week, which involved the girls acting out scenarios emphasizing their attraction with Tom as their co-lead.

Models	Act
Angie	A visit to the dentist
Julian	Pulled over by a cop for speeding
May	Picking up a guy at a club
Patricia	Model hitting on the photographer
Sang-in	Picking up a guy on the train
Tawan	Romeo and Juliet
Tuti	Forgot her purse and can't pay for coffee

The challenge caused much entertainment between the girls, and in the end everyone but Sang-in and Tuti managed to make him smile. Tom then revealed that Patricia had been chosen as the winner of the challenge, and had earned a dinner date with him.

The week's photo shoot was for Close-up. The models were introduced to Indonesian model and actor Mike Lewis, who would be their partner for the shoot. Patricia was stiff at the beginning, but after doing salsa dancing she managed to loosen up and impress everyone. Tawan and Angie were also praised, the former for her believable connection with Tom and the latter for showing improvement in taking direction from Yu Tsai. Tuti struggled, as she wasn't confident with her smile and admitted that she wasn't used to doing smiling shoots. At the end of her session Tuti broke down in tears in front of Kelly, Mike and Yu Tsai, irritating the latter, who deemed her behavior unprofessional. The rest of the girls received mixed responses from the mentors.

At panel, Angie, Patricia and Tawan were all lauded for their photographs. Disagreement erupted between the judges when it came to Julian's photo, which was loved by Kelly and Cindy but panned by Yu Tsai. May broke down in front of the judges after receiving a lukewarm response for her photo, while Tuti was castigated by Yu Tsai for her unprofessional behavior on set. During elimination, Patricia received her first best photo and was chosen as the face of Close-up for 2016. She also received a pair diamond earrings from Close-up. May and Tuti ended wound up in the bottom two. Tuti was spared, and a very emotional May was sent home.
