Maybe there's a wall, you know, with nine blocks that spell out "competition."

Toccara, I knew from day one that you wanted this and was f-a-b-o.
I am fabulous and I want this.
I'm proud of myself. I'm the largest girl to get here and I made it this far. Someone has to start to break the barrier, so hopefully the next plus size girl that comes along, she makes it a little bit further. It's gonna take time, it doesn't happen over night. But I'm just grateful that maybe I made a path for someone else.
Yaya, it was like you were on this pedestal and this hat smelt like dookie!
[to Yaya] Why did you choose the cowboy hat?
[to Tyra] It's more on the simple side compared to the other hats, so I can go crazy with accessories and express myself without being cliché.
[to Yaya] Yaya, I think you look beautiful. I think everyone probably pegged you as going for the typical African hat.
[to Yaya] You're I feel... half African, half cowgirl. Looks like you're about to ride a giraffe. I think... I'm not feeling it.
[to Yaya] You have this intensity to prove your, sort of, African-ness. And I think that sometimes it's overbearing. It's just too much, it's sort of a layer on top of a layer.
[to the judges] In response to trying to prove myself as an African, that's just where I come from. It's very natural to me... and [points at the African hat on the judges' panel] I did not chose that hat for the very specific reason that it's very cliché. The fabric that it's made from is very artificial, very cheap fake kente!
[to Yaya] Yaya.
[to Nigel] I didn't have the time–I know I'm running on.
[to Yaya] There's a different way of explaining yourself and being defensive. And you're being very defensive, and it's not attractive.
[to Tyra] Just because we had a talk about, you know, Afro-centricity before, and it's kind of... misunderstood.
[to Yaya] I'm all about, like, expressing yourself and your culture, but it's still done in a fashion way. You want your outfit to be, "Look at me!" and this outfit is, "Look over there!"
I was petrified of this spider.
Try posing on a live crocodile honey.
Who's the most annoying girl in the group?
Everyone's equally annoying!
