The competition heats up as "America's Next Top Model" returns, featuring male and female aspiring models competing for a career-launching prize package. The contestants participate in their first runway show and, during a photo shoot on the streets of Hollywood, the semi-finalists have to pose while the public votes on them. One model struggles with the decision of whether or not to stay in the competition, while judges Kelly Cutrone, Rob Evans and Tyra Banks use the social media scores from the photo shoot to aid them in choosing the competition's top sixteen finalists.
