Week Summaries
Week 1: Tatjana's Quest For The Missing Camera

Following the drama during the semi-finals, including Elf's racist comments, the final 16 arrived in New York City and moved in to their new model mansion, excited to begin the competition and vie for the coveted title of Winner of The Industry II. Tatjana nearly had a nervous breakdown when her camera went missing and Jessica and Rubi kept on taunting her about its location. It was Eloise who helped her find her camera, and later Tatjana returned the favor when Eloise's scrapbook went missing and she went on a rampage around the house. Constance Jacquard dropped in to visit the girls and get filled in on any drama that may be going on, but the ever-so-sly Rubi lied and painted the house as being the perfect haven. As soon as Constance had given each girl a gift bag and left the model mansion, drama ensued. Whilst trying to make breakfast for the girls, Tatjana was reprimanded by Sirena for being too nagging and too overly-sweet whilst Pia called Tatjana a racist. The fight then escalated in a showdown between Sirena and Pia, in which doodoo wrapped in a towel was thrown at Sirena's face and placed on Pia's delicacy, chocolate-covered chicken. Meanwhile, Octavia was giving the producers a hard time, what with her confusing the show for Octavia's Next Top Girlfriend and demanding that photoshoots, call-out orders, and eliminations be rigged in order to get ratings for her show and get her some action in the process. Jessica, seemingly the quietest girl in the house, instigated a fight between Rubi and Pia by placing Pia's toothpaste and deodorant in Rubi's luggage. After Natasha finished playing a session of WoW, the girls were taken to their next photoshoot, where they had to pose in the snow whilst only wearing extreme body paint and avant-garde make-up. Oleysia was no show and was thus eliminated. At panel, Eloise, Pia and Chosz shined and delivered knock-out photographs. Front-runner Eloise was called first, and after Constance announced that two girls would be going home, it was Penn, Anxhela, and Mercury who landed in the bottom three for not being comfortable enough in their skin to embrace the natural feel of the shoot. In the end, ice queen Anxhela was given another chance to prove herself, and Penn and Mercury had to say goodbye to their fellow competitors and the dream of being The Industry's newest winner.

Week 2: Octavia's Quest For A Pair Of Tatas

This week, the girls were taken to Primera Salon where Constance Jacquard made another appearance that sent the girls riling and clapping. She then announced that they would be receiving makeovers to improve their bookability, upon which the girls ceased their celebration and quieted down. However, they were again sent into overjoy mode when all the makeovers turned out perfectly fine and improved each girl's looks. Dildos mysteriously showed up on each girl's bed, and Anxhela mistook hers for an egg beater and later a massager after Sirena suggested so since she used to give her grandparents massages with them. Alysha and Tatjana bonded after Alysha revealed her troubled past and Tatjana showed genuine compassion towards her. Octavia yet again harassed the producer when she applauded the makeovers production gave the girls, thinking they were given to improve their look and make them better potential girlfriends for her. Eloise expressed her concern for Octavia's frequent hungry looks at the girls. Baja made cookies laced with weed to...well drug the girls and she had as her accomplice none other than Pia, who earlier poured hot grease in Eloise's bad for stealing her FCO. After the ever-so-naive Nenden had eaten one of the cookies and passed out, Baja and Pia profited of the situation to write on her forehead. After Tatjana had given Rubi tips on her angles and Natasha completed yet another session of WoW, the girls were taken to Times Square where they had to do a beauty shoot whilst wearing fur and showcasing their new looks. Baja, Sirena, and Nenden impressed while Pia and Alysha were applauded for taking a risk. At panel, Sirena received the FCO and it ended up been a battle between Chosz and Anxhela in the bottom two. Chosz was reprimanded for making such a huge regression while Anxhela was equally reprimanded for not making any progress. In the end, Anxhela ran out of chances and Chosz was saved.
