In the previous episode of Rock of Love Charm School, two cast members were eliminated: Kristy Jo and Jessica. These two Charm School cast members were sent home by Sharon Osbourne on the grounds that they are both already charming, and neither was showing a marked improvement.
The elimination of Kristy Jo and Jessica leaves just four girls in the running for the $100,000 prize that goes to the winner of Charm School. The final four girls are Lacey, Destiney, Heather and Brandi M.
In the eighth episode of Charm School, Lacey found herself in a vulnerable position with allies Brandi C. and Megan Hauserman both eliminated. Lacey clearly felt a bit hunted as was the target of the other Charm School cast members' venting about her malicious and manipulative behavior - after all, the episode theme was "Thou Shalt Express Thyself."
Lacey did put the backstabbing on hold as she attempted to make amends, but the other girls were clearly suspicious of Lacey's intentions. Going into episode nine, Lacey appears to be the most vulnerable cast member on account of her emotional state - and due to Sharon Osbourne's apparent ability to see right through Lacey's antics.
A Summary of Episode Nine of Rock of Love Charm School
The ninth episode begins with a lesson on the Charm School commandment that's the focus of this episode: "Thou Shalt Know Who Thou Art." The cast first meets with a branding specialist, who helps each girl explore how they're perceived by others. During this self exploration, Heather sets the tone for the rest of the episode when she calls out Destiney and Brandi M., whom she feels are not being truthful, thereby making them less deserving of the $100,000 prize that goes to the Charm School winner.
As a result, Heather alienates Brandi M., Destiney and Lacey, and she's left with a feeling of "they're all out to get me."
The primary challenge of episode nine is this: each girl is assigned to work with a graphic designer to create a unique T-shirts for the Smet clothing line, with the winning shirt to be sold in stores nationwide. The shirts are intended to symbolize each Charm School cast member's "brand" - a practical application in packaging and presenting a particular image to the world.
Judging the challenge is designer Christian Audigier and Elvis-esque musician Johnny Hallyday. Destiney wins the challenge with her bright blue T-shirt, sending Lacey, Heather and Brandi M. down to the carpet for possible elimination from Charm School.
Who Gets Sent Home on Episode Nine of Charm School'?
In the hours leading up to the elimination, Heather goes on a rapid downhill spiral, her emotions getting the best of her as she goes into the Charm School expulsion ceremony.
During the expulsion ceremony, Heather begins by pointing the finger at the other girls' faults, but eventually, a tearful Heather admits that she's been numbing her emotions with a daily dose of marijuana for the past decade. And now that she's in Charm School and away from the drugs, all of those suppressed emotions are bubbling to the surface, creating a violent overflow.
With apparent regret, Sharon Osbourne shows a bit of tough love to Heather. Heather is sent home and eliminated from Charm School, but Sharon vows to get Heather the help she so clearly needs to get her life in order.
With Heather sent home from Charm School, this leaves the final three: Lacey, Destiney and Brandi M.
