Oh no, does she have the flesh eating bacteria?
In episode 5, Michelle develops an awful facial rash that just won’t go away. While on the phone with her mom, Noelle tells her mom about it, and before you know it, the rumor is that Michelle has a flesh eating bacteria on her face. The girls start getting paranoid, especially those that shared makeup with Michelle. At the photo shoot, Mr. Jay tells Michelle she needs to go to the doctor to see what is causing this. They are going to be working with children, and she can’t be around a child if she is contagious. When she comes back, it turns out she has impetigo, which is a common skin infection that can be cured with antibiotic treatments. Still, when it comes time for her photo shoot, they have her pose with a doll, rather than a live child, just to be sure.
