Round and round we go on this week's Americas Next Top Model! The challenges are becoming more difficult as we get further into the competition. First, we saw the models walk down a vertical runway and now we see them walk in circles on a huge moving turntable!

Nina had twisted her ankle weeks back during casting while hula hooping and since then, she has been staying off of it as much as possible. Once she heard what the challenge was, the tears started flowing and she was worried she physically wouldn't be able to go through with it. Chris and Nina have became close friends in the house and his words of encouragement helped her... along with a good ol' ankle wrap from the medic on duty.

Lately, it seems that Chris has yet to click with everybody in the house and it didn't help when Mike told him to "Shut the F^*# up!" when Chris was talking over him, explaining their phone time in the morning. Ouch! Some guys would shrug that comment off and talk back but for Chris it became more of a deeper issue given that his childhood background wasn't all rainbows and kittens. It was about time he explained to his fellow roommates why he is the way he is by a sit down house meeting. Once he expressed how his mother wasn't the best of showing TLC, and was verbally and physically abusive, they understood his actions and some could relate.

Mike never really took the opportunity to apologize and that opportunity is long gone since he was sent home after his trailer park photo shoot! Does that mean back to the food truck scooping ice cream?! The two least experienced models, Mike and Jeremy, were bottom two this week. I guess their inner trailer park boy never came out to play. Looks like the girls killed it this week with Jourdan coming out on top. GO GIRL!
