Review

The episode definitely helped pushed the storyline forward, by developing the conflict or love affair between Jasper and Eleanor, while separating Ophelia and Liam. The separation was actually very beneficial for the show. Ophelia is likely one of the weakest characters and was actually more enjoyable going off on her own. The scheming around the fashion show was definitely fun, although a little predictable. Still, not a bad episode. A solid 7 out of 10 is suitable.
