Design students compete for a six-month placement at Philippe Starck's design agency. The eight remaining students are disgraced. After the previous week's failure to interpret the brief correctly, Starck wanted to eliminate them all - instead he is making them repeat the brief again. Failure to reach his exacting standards will result in blood on the studio walls.
Despondent and fed up, the students struggle yet again to grasp just what Starck is after but they come back with a renewed determination to prove to Starck that they are truly great designers. Polly Firth hopes to regain her status as top of the class but she finds herself more and more on the periphery of the group, which culminates in a confrontation when Ana and Ilsa accuse her of breaking the rules and getting outside help with her design.
When the students finally pitch their ideas to Starck, he is ruthless and sends four of the eight students home, their dreams of working with one of the greatest designers in the world shattered.
