Make (it Work) Over Madness! - 
by EdHIll
Well it was a traumatic episode for us all last week on Project Runway. Watching Andrae run offstage was tough for all of us. I mean sure we all laughed because he ran like a 6 year old girl with arms flailing, but still, below the laughter was pain. And it’s not because we will miss his over the top gay facial expressions. No we still have Nick for that. It hurts because Andrae was actually pretty talented, and Santino and Kara suck, yet they are both still here. But that’s OK, we have two episodes left to get rid of them so that when they finally get to Olympus Fashion week (Which took place this morning), it will be the three most worthy left. Namely Chloe, Daniel and Nick.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. We still have 3 episodes left until then. And tonight’s challenge is even more fun that sticking a bunch of models in shrubs. It’s time for a makeover!
The episode opens with the fallout form the loss of Andrae. Santino is beside himself now that his “Tim Gunn dates Andrae� impression must now be retired. But that’s not as important as winning. Santino still thinks he’s one of the most talented people remaining. He reminds us he’s won two challenges. What he doesn’t remind us is that Daniels won 4, and that Santino has almost been eliminated for more weeks than you can count.
The next day they all come back to the runway where Heidi, who looks like she is about to explode with that huge belly, is there to tell them about their next challenge. It’s a head to toe makeover. And this is when the loss of Andrae hits me the hardest. We all know that the camera would have shown Andrae doing his famous bug eyed open mouthed “Oh my gaaawd!� expression. I mean sure, Kara did her best with her own bugeyed expression, but it wasn't the same. But now there is just an empty hole in my heart where Andrae would have been. It’s like that first Thursday after they canceled Friends. You turn on the TV expecting to see the crazy comedy stylings of David Schwimmer, and all you get is a Will and Grace rerun.
Anyways, Heidi says that she will draw the names randomly from a bag. Santino gets to do Kara. Kara gets to do Santino. Nick gets Daniel, Chloe gets Nick and Daniel gets Chloe. Once they all get their picks done its time for one last bit of business. Time to boot a model. We have the winning and losing models from last week. Danyelle, Andrae’s model, and Rebecca, Daniels model from the beginning. It’s no surprise what happens as everyone but Zulema has been loyal to their models. Even Danyelle knows as she starts to tear up before Daniel even says anything. But its ok, he’s not telling Danyelle to leave, he’s simply telling her that he’s sending her off to do “bigger and better things�. And since the last thing Danyelle did was wear a big green tank, you can’t argue with him. Backstage Danyelle gets a big group hug from all the other models as she is sent on her way. One day I am hoping this will dissolve into a pillow fight, from there it will turn into a tickle fight, and then…. well the skies the limit.
With that Heidi gives her patented “Byyye� which I find gets cuter every week, but then again what isn’t cute about pregnant supermodels? From there it’s onto the work room where Tim is there to fill them in on the details of the challenge. There will be no models used this week because they will be the models. Yet another painful moment as I think of what Andrae could have given us on the runway, arms flailing. Tim tells them they have a 200 dollar budget and two days to get it done. They have one hour to come up with an idea.
