What is this,The Bachelor???
Its a twin-storm of an episode.
Claire immediately gets to work and has a nearly finished look in 15 minutes.

After bursting into tears, she asks for Tim.
Then Claire starts crying, too.
The three of them trek down to the runway to tell the judges the twins decision.

ThenTimstarts crying, too.
He lets the judges know what theyve decided.
(Its a sobfest, but I have pretty dry eyes over here am I a monster?)

You know, Dixie?
A reputable name in fashion and also those little paper cups your grandma kept in the bathroom.
Oh, and $25,000, which the designers seem much more thrilled about.

The challenge is to design a print and use it in a look for a woman on the go.
After getting matched up, the women-on-the-go describe their styles and tastes.
Claire could have the biggest issue because her client Cecelia hates prints.

Once they all get to work, Claire is clearly at a loss.
She keeps talking to everyone around her, and they dont give her feedback like her twin Shawn would.
Margarita tries to stay calm, but shes spiraling out.

Batani decides to chop hers up and use pieces, and Margarita dyes hers.
Couple of real make-it-work moments!
Tim comes for critiques along with the clients, and he gives primarily positive feedback.

Hes concerned Batanis dress doesnt have as much print as it should and its essentially a gray shroud.
He wants her to oomph it up.
They love each other so much.
She says shes not proud of this weeks design and shes so glad she has immunity.
Sabrina says she identifies with the hippy-dippy dress, not the polished hair and makeup.
And Nina doesnt appreciate how the placement of the print is like an afterthought.
Michael tried to use his model Halonas Native American roots, and she is happy with the final result.
Zac says she did a great job walking the runway, but the look is disappointing.
Kenya introduces her new mom Michelle by saying shes a grandmother who doesnt want to look like a grandmother.
She picked a small print that could reproduce well on a Dixie cup (smart).
Yolanda says she typically hates prints, but loves the smallness of this one.
And Heidi says she doesnt like the peplum at all.
Kentaro used bright colors for the first time ever for his model, Kekina.
The judges think hes exaggerating he is not.
Zac says its sublime, and Nina is nodding in approval.
Heidi thinks the model is swallowed up with fabric, but Nina says its 360-degree elegance.
Claire explains how her model, Cecelia, didnt want prints and how they made that work together.
Heidi says losing Shawn must have been a good thing because Cecelia looks perfect head to toe.
Zac says the print was effective and ready to buy, but Claire has more creativity in her.
Margarita already told the judges she didnt like her look, so theres not much saving it now.
Zac says he likes the print and thats it.
When the designers get back on the runway after judges deliberations, Heidi announces Claire as winner.
Next thing you know, Michael is walking off the runway.
He tells a crew member backstage, I came to play fair and theres no fairness in this game.
Tim comes over completely baffled and Michael reiterates, cryptically, that this winning look lacks fairness.
But, guys,this is getting good.
See you back here next week, when Pants-in-the-Bathroom-Gate resumes.
