The Road to the Final Four - 
by J-Unit
After learning the dance, they discover that they are going to have to perform in front of an audience from the township, and they would be judged. Presiding over the ceremonies would be Miss J, who placed himself in the audience and stretched out his legs, and god damn did you see those legs? He had a dress on that was slit up to there, and we could see the assets that probably got him the job of runway consultant. That being said, I never want to see them again.
The girls do their thing, but everybody did fairly well. Brittany goes into everything like she has nothing to lose, and that demeanor at least lets her look like she is having fun at everything. Kahlen's attitude is completely different. When something is too difficult, she tends to give up easily. She was more than nervous, she was upset that she had to go on. When it came time to deliver, she actually did fairly well. It has become her modus operandi; complain something is too hard and then over perform. Although Keenya felt like she was moving well, we all knew that nobody would be a match for Naima (who I learned has a twin sister as well - almost too much for my dirty mind to comprehend). Miss J lets the audience decide the winner by their applause, and Naima gets the prize.
The township was emotional in many ways, but things were just getting started. They got their mail from Bankable, and it simply had 46664 on it. Nobody knew what it meant, but they were soon going to find out the next day. The second trip of the week took them to Robben Island, the main political prison of South Africa's apartheid era. A former prisoner was their guide, and told them about the torture and poor treatment people would receive if they were incarcerated there. We learned that 46664 was Nelson Mandela's number when he stayed there for 18 years during his fight against apartheid. The guide became emotional talking about Mandela's importance to his people, and by the look on their faces, all of the girls were really taking in the message.
The highlight of the trip was another emotional moment. One of the girls got to use the key to open the actual cell that belonged to Nelson Mandela. Naima took the chance right away, and it looked like Keenya was upset, and the whole thing was wearing thin on Brittany. She really got sick of hearing Keenya say how much it meant to her, and more accurately, how nobody else could understand what it meant to her. Brittany also was suspicious when Keenya started crying when Keenya was in Nelson Mandela's cell, not because she is a heartless bitch, but because she wondered why Keenya had so much emotion for somebody she knew nothing about. Only minutes earlier, she had asked Brittany if Mandela was dead or alive, prompting Brittany to wonder if she knew much about him. Well, I am going to go out on a limb on this one, but if you don't know if somebody is alive or not, you most likely haven't been following them too closely. (Speaking of which, would it be too morbid if TVgasm started a Death Pool?) For Brittany, it was a further example of how fake Keenya had become and she believed her emotions were all for show.
So, learning everything about the inequalities of apartheid, I was wondering what kind of photo shoot there would be. Imagine my surprise when I learned that the girls would be playing 40s aristocrats on vacation in Africa. Ahh, yes, bring back those heady days of the colonial era South Africa! I'm sure I am being too sensitive, but couldn't they have thought of something better to sell the Caress Sensational Soothing Bodywash? How about another alligator?
