The models pose with comedian Ross Mathews and have five frames to create a seductive photo, but will the funny man make it difficult for the girls to keep a straight face? Then it's a visit New York's garment district, where the models pile on all things fake and have to pose through the craziness. Former supermodel Pat Cleveland acts as guest judge.

The girls visit Ann Shoket at the Seventeen Magazine headquarters, and Alasia’s insistence on taking a shower beforehand causes them to be late. Ann teaches them about how to dress in order to flatter all kinds of body types. They are then given 5 minutes to dress themselves up, and as a surprise, all of them get to keep the outfits they chose. The next night, the girls are invited to Tinsley Mortimer’s launch party of her new line of handbags, and are given the opportunity to mingle with the guests as well as to have some one-on-one time with Tinsley. Jessica’s sunny personality and cute outfit impresses Tinsley the most and she wins a photo shoot in Seventeen Magazine, which she shares with Brenda and Raina. The photo shoot takes place on a subway, which is also their first CoverGirl assignment. The girls have to portray different facets of New York women.
