By lsburton, Mar 26, 2008 Report Abuse

i thought his was a very touching episode because I have a small child and i was recently seperated from him for four months due to a military deployment. I know what its like to miss your child so my heart went out to the moms on this show. I was happy that Dionne and Renee both were able to see there families because they had won the challenge but i was sad for Natasha, but hey, she didn't win so...I definitly like the photo challenge today because we got to see guest from previous episodes. I was a sad to see Whitley go because she was one of my favorites.moreless

'Nene' and 'Brown' get to see their families and 'Nata' gets upset that she can't see her baby too. This was really annoying as she sobbed on the phone and moped all night and then complained to that Sutan guy (who did drag Tyra last year) about how someone "must have decided that she didn''t miss her baby as much as the other girls". Apparently 'Nata' hasn't figured out that's not how it works. She didn't win, she doesn't get the prize. If you haven't figured it out, her whining really annoyed me this episode, but then she totally rocked her photo shoot. "Whitelle" was the one to leave this week.moreless

Whittney was a really, pretty girl, dont get me wrong, and she seemed nice, but she defintly wasnt one of my favorites. I wasn't totaly depressed about her leaving. My favourite part of the epp was when they got the stupid shirts for winning the challenge and they came to find there families! Defiently very cute.

"Perfect"

this episode was very special, i really like how renee is changing and her picking dione as her friend was totally sweet
i think that might change her mind of not trusting her no more, and it was soo funny how renee got excited over a t-shirt
but it was awesome when their famalies came
it gave renee more hope, i just feel sorry for natasha but she did good in her photoshoot
i was kinda expecting whitney to go becuz shes been in the bottom two for the past two weeks and i think its harder for her now that diana isnt heremoreless

An average episode. I was not shocked at all that they eliminated Whitney it was definately her time after being in the bottom two, 3 weeks in a row. I really thought she was going to be eliminated the week before actually when they eliminated Sarah instead. I am looking forward to next week because I think all the weaker girls have now been eliminated and it should make for more entertaining television now that the competition will be more fierce. I think that Jael is in trouble especially because of her poor performance in this episode. Jaslene is also in trouble after early strong performances.moreless

I think you are an awesome, friendly, loving person and I hope you can accept my apology. You don't have to talk to me or be my friend, just know that I am truly sorry and from this point on, I don't have a single negative thing to say. Maybe I was just jealous of your good time. Truly sorry, Renee Edit
