McKenzie greets the contestants (yes, they're all officially contestants now!) on New York Street at Universal Studios. But what's up with the big fish? And the bananas? And the toy truck? As Cig notes, this makes no sense!

McKenzie explains that they'll be creating their own, over-the-top crime boss inspired by one of the props next to her. The props, in turn, come from the nickname of a real-life, deceased gangster!

"Big Tuna" looks great! Cig's fat suit, the dorsal fin hair - it all comes together to earn them top looks, and Cig wins the challenge!

For Leonard "Needles" Gianola, Stella and Doc went pretty literal, a move that placed them in bottom looks.

The judges were thoroughly unimpressed with the rat concept for "Tick Tock" Tannenbaum. Since Barry was the author of that, he goes home this week.
