"Oh, that was the nude shoot?"

As in the last few years, definitely Heidi Klum's self-promotional intro, which runs at the beginning of each episode. As in the last two years, it was very important to her again this season to show that she is still totally youthful. Wrapped in towels, she jumps around and spins around so often that she must have been dizzy afterwards. But at least no rigidly rehearsed dance choreo and no song by Tokio Hotel. Tom Kaulitz aka "her husband" was not even mentioned in the whole episode. But they're still a couple, aren't they?

The nude shooting is usually a drama guarantee. And this year it even coincides with one of the most important shoots of each season: The models shoot their comp cards – topless. "The sedcard is a model's business card," Heidi's always sounds the same lyre from the off. It would be stupid if someone had a problem with their outfit today, which, by the way, only consists of a black thong. The opposite is the case. Although the 16 remaining candidates get the "Germany's Next Top Model" bathrobes while screaming, some can't tear the squeaky pink part off their bodies fast enough. "Finally" breathes Anya as she pulls off her coat. No one complains about being uncomfortable. No one threatens to leave only to stay in the end. Everyone just pulls blank. When Heidi Anya asks about the nude shoot, she is confused: "Oh, that was the nude shoot?" She asks. Well she was naked. What did she think that was?

The decision walk: Conceptless clothes paired with a walk that you can be sure that no professional model in the world has ever had to do. This time, to Heidi's amusement, the models have to solve a quiz while running to stay on the show. They wear huge bed sheets, each with a letter on it. They get a question backstage. With the letters on their clothes they have to form the answer and run down the catwalk in the right order. Since there are several questions, some models even have to walk four times, so the poses get more unusual each time.

In the end, the correctness of the answers has no influence on the evaluation, only the walk is important. Apart from Heidi and guest juror Rebecca Mir, nobody would have needed this quiz.

When does this fake incredulity end when someone is kicked out? Every time a contestant has to leave the show, the first thing to do is convince the whole group that you're "really, really out." Has anyone ever cracked a lousy joke or where does this distrust come from? Imagine, you have to leave the show, dream burst, everything is over and over and the reaction comes: "Never, then you would really cry!"

Selma. She bears a striking resemblance to actress Margot Robbie, despite her cotton candy pink hair. Guest judge Rebecca Mir also notices this. Since Robbie is sort of THE heartthrob of the younger generations, her doppelganger could also snag some online admirers. Provided they like pink hair.

This episode does not come from Heidi, but from photographer Vicky Lawton. During the sedcard shooting, there is a so-called “shoot out” between the six worst candidates of the past week. Whoever is least convincing at the photo shoot has to pack their bags in the middle of the episode and head home. Heidi and Vicky Lawton confer. "I'm not sure about Elsa, Jülide and Coco," says Heidi. "I mean, do you have to keep all three?" asks Vicky Lawton with a smug laugh. The answer is: no. Julide is out.

What do they inject into your lips in Russia? "Try to relax your mouth a little. It looks very tense at the moment,” is the photographer's instruction at Elsa's photo shoot. She's not wrong, something's wrong. Elsa promptly helped out: “I had my lips done and the material comes from Russia and is very strong. I don't do anything with my lips, but when you touch it you can tell it's pretty hard," she explains while pinching her upper lip. Heidi rightly looks a bit irritated. Unfortunately, Google does not bring any light into the darkness either.

"The lady with what last name invented the little black dress?" is a question in the quiz decision walk. The answer: Coco Chanel. Alongside the on-screen question is an iconic image of Audrey Hepburn in a little black dress, confusing all the models. The fact that the girls are about to answer the question incorrectly - namely with the last name of the lady in the picture - is irrelevant at first. It is much more shocking that apparently only two out of 16 candidates even know Audrey Hepburn. "What's the name? Headburn?”, people wonder loudly. Ouch, your head is actually pounding.

Curvy model Vivien has delivered, you would already treat her to victory! She was the best in the shoot, was shortlisted in the casting, and Rebecca Mir chose her as her favorite in the decision-making process. That in the end not one of the 08/15 slim girls wins is of course not certain.

Elsa is flashy, direct and therefore entertaining. After her exit in this episode, she can now plan her further TV career. If she makes a stopover in the RTL format "Kampf der Realitystars" and not only survives the challenges there, but also her fellow combatants, she is guaranteed a place in the jungle camp.
