Face Off - 01x07 Family Plot
Summary: Effects artists must be able to transform their models, but what do you do when your model is yourself? And what if you have to transform yourself so successfully that the person closest to you doesn't realize it's you? Those are the questions that the remaining five contestants will answer this week. They have to create a makeup of an alternate persona for themselves, one that's so convincing that it can fool a girlfriend, a husband or a mom.

Tate goes right for the thing that his girlfriend hates most, doughy goth guys, figuring that if she can't stand to look at him, she won't notice that he's, well, him. Gage and Sam have a harder time deciding, but choose radical routes: Gage transforms himself into a black woman, and Sam turns herself into a middle-aged man. Conor takes a safe route, thinking less is more, so he keeps his own basic facial structure while adding about 20 years and a scraggly beard. Megan takes a turn that might not have anything to do with the contest: She's modeling her persona on Diana, Conor's go-to model. Could she be trying to win his heart by changing her face? As Gage and Tate shave, they ruminate on what ulterior motives Megan may have.
