The zombie models have overrun Bryant Park's Fashion Week! Can Carly and Jake stop them before the world's fashionistas become dinner? And what would Tim Gunn say about all this? Tune in tomorrow at 9 AM EST to tweet with us!

Here's the line-by-line breakdown of today's storytelling  (Read from the bottom up)

  1. RT @JenniferLJacobs: She heard the din of the audience and the loud music, then a huge gasp arose from the runway. Showtime.
  2. RT @wotv: Joyce's voice came through her earphone, "Just wait for it...."
  3. RT @csyusten: "Jake! Joyce! It didn't work! Nothing happened!" Carly whispered violently.
  4. RT @susiebj: The music suddenly blasted. 121 pivoted and headed down the runway. Baffled, Carly had to follow as models pushed from behind.
  5. RT @susiebj: The model sniffed again. Carly licked her finger and wiped the model's lip. "Uh, your liner's smeared."
  6. RT @WotV: "Oh, nice to meet you..." Carly wondered vaguely what would happen if she spit in her hand and shook with model 121.
  7. RT @ange1ina: "Hi, I'm new here. What's your name?" Carly babled. "Name?" the girl gazed blankly through glazed eyes. "I'm model 121."
  8. RT @susiebj: The model's head turned. She sniffed and then her glazed eyes locked onto Carly
  9. RT @csyusten: Carly felt blood rushing to her face but the sight of Jake giving her two thumbs up made her feel a little less queasy.
  10. RT @rmooreowlpower: Just then, the pervasive scent of decay got a little closer as the limo-model shoved her way in line in front of Carly.
  11. RT @Fluffybookfae: From somewhere nearby, Carly heard the sound of a high-pitched man's voice shout "Five minutes!" She took a deep breath.
  12. RT @csyusten: "You can do it," Joyce piped up. "Just keep your head up, shoulders back, and look hungry!"
  13. RT @rmooreowlpower: "The CEO won't come backstage," Jake said. "But he'll be in the front row for the show. So you have to go on the runway.
  14. RT @non_conformistz:"Wait, the runway?" Carly demanded, a little too loudly, "I thought the model disguise was just to get me in!"
  15. RT @Taragel "Nice underwear by the way." She gasped. How did he...?! Her head darted around to find him standing near the runway, winking.
  16. RT @Fluffybookfae: "While you're on the runway," said Jake, "I'm going to search the premises. Once I find him, I'll signal you.
  17. RT @Taragel Suddenly her earpiece crackled again, Jake's sultry voice rumbled over the line.
  18. RT @CrystalMariaS: With Carly's luck she would trip and a cameraman would be aimed and ready hoping she pulled a Britney
  19. RT @rmooreowlpower: Still, she really, really wished she hadn't gone for the SpongeBob SquarePants underwear this morning.
  20. RT @csyusten: Carly eyed the minidress and let out an exhale, Here goes nothing, she thought.
  21. RT @WotV: Then a strong hand grabbed Carly by the arm and shoved an impossibly small minidress at her. "Go put this on. NOW!"
  22. RT @JenniferLJacobs The model turned down a corner & Carly followed. But the hallway was so crammed with people, she couldn't find the girl
  23. RT @rmooreowlpower: She looked like 'Weight Loss Barbie.'
  24. RT @melannielove: As soon as the stylist finished doing her make up, she jumped off the chair and started to follow the model
  25. RT @barbarathome: She didn't see him, but she saw one of the models that had gotten out of the limo with him earlier
  26. RT @SaireeElizabeth Carly used the mirror to slyly survey the room for any sign of the man she'd glanced earlier, the CEO.
  27. RT @terencewest: "Keep your eyes open," said Joyce through the Carly's earpiece.
  28. RT @JenniferLJacobs: "You've got great bone structure," said the stylist. "And nice tone." From the lack of flesh in my diet, thought Carly.
  29. RT @CrystalMariaS: "Yeah, I'm just trying something new" Carly replied with a weak smile that didn't reach her eyes
  30. RT @Taragel Hey! Carly thought. She moisturized every morning!
  31. RT @terencewest: "Looks like your skin is sloughing off here," the stylist noted. "I can fix that."
  32. RT @CrystalMariaS: "You're a new face" said the stylist currently working on her, a worried line crossing her brow
  33. RT @JenniferLJacobs: Carly was torn from her romantic haze and sat in the chair as stylists painted, brushed, and plucked away.
  34. RT @susiebj: "You. New girl," said a guy standing by a long counter, snapping his fingers. "Get over here and get your make up on."
  35. RT @NatiVi: Carly stood standing for a moment, feeling her cheek burn where Jake had kissed.
  36. RT @JenniferLJacobs: Jake kissed her on the cheek. "I have faith in you," he whispered. And then he was gone.
  37. RT @NatiVi: "Oh, yeah! Now I'm much more calm," said Carly
  38. RT @CahLac: "Besides, at least you can just kiss someone if they come too close."
  39. RT @rmooreowlpower: "Don't worry," said Jake. "They're not allowed to eat anything before a show, anyway."
  40. RT @susiebj: "Don't go far," hissed Carly. "I don't want either of us to end up as lunch."
  41. RT @JenniferLJacobs: "You go change," said Jake. "I'm going to try and get some information out of some people around here."
  42. RT @juliamenna: "Good work honeys." Carly heard Joyce saying "Now try to find that serum!"
  43. RT @rmooreowlpower"What now?" hissed Carly, doing her best to look dead and hungry. Which she really, really wasn't at the moment.
  44. RT @susiebj:  "Allright. We're in," Jake muttered alerting the ZTF members listening in.
  45. RT @susiebj: As Jake and Carly entered the tent, all eyes turned toward them. Several models licked their lips.
  46. RT @wotv: Carly stifled a snorting laugh at "yummy" and followed Jake into the tent.
  47. RT @barbarathome: "Hum", shiny-clothes took a long look at Jake. "He does look yummy...Ok, bring him in".
  48. RT @marissajeanine: Jake thought quickly. "My cologne! It neutralizes the decay."
  49. RT @marissajeanine: Shiny raised an eyebrow. "Oh really?" he asked. He sniffed Jake. "Doesn't smell like one of us."
  50. RT @WotV: "I can't... he has to... " Carly stumbled over her words before assuming an eerie monotone. "He is one of us. He is mine."
  51. RT @escapetheworld: Shiny-clothes turned to Jake. "Oh no, dear. Models only." Carly clutched Jake's arm.
  52. RT @juliamenna: Shiny-clothes rolled his eyes. "Whatever. Come with me." As they were walking, Jake whispered to Carly "See? Piece of cake."
  53. RT @CrystalMariaS: "She accidentally had lunch yesterday. Believe me she's perfect." Jake replied smoothly
  54. RT @susiebj: Shiny-clothes narrowed his eyes. "She's not as skinny as the rest."
  55. RT @wotv: "She's the one!" Jake said just a little too brightly.
  56. RT @escapetheworld: They were suddenly stopped by a man. He wore the most shiny clothes in the room. "Is she the new model?!"
  57. RT @simon_staffans: Swallowing nervously she tried her best to look glazed and hungry as she followed Jake through the throng.
  58. RT @wheems01: Carly and Jake begin to meander their way through the crowd to the models' dressing area.
  59. RT @CrystalMariaS: "Come on" urge Jake in Carly' s ear, "we need to go"
  60. RT @Taragel So....glazed, hungry, smelly, Carly thought. Check. She rolled her eyes. Glamorous work.
  61. RT @susiebj: "It's usually the skinniest ones," said Jake. "Those that manage to look both glazed and horribly hungry.
  62. RT @Kiwialabama: "Well," Jake said, "I've heard they have a strange odor but it's difficult to get that close without risk."
  63. RT @terencewest: Carly wasn't sure if she was expecting rotting flesh, but all the models were absolutely beautiful.
  64. RT @wotv: "Is there an obvious way to tell which models are... infected?" Carly asked.
  65. RT @barbarathome: "It sure can", Carly thought, as she saw dozens of models walking around. Those fixed glazes made her shiver a bit.
  66. RT @terencewest: "Brace yourself," Jake said placing his hand on Carly's arm, "this could get ugly."
  67. RT @glenbw: "Oh my gosh!" Carly couldn't help squealing like a little girl. "There's Valentino Garavani & Domenico Dolce & Steffano Gabbana"
  68. RT @glenbw: Upon reaching the tents, they could see everything as seen on TV: fashion designers, models, reporters, etc...
  69. RT @susiebj: Jake found a spot and parked, jumping out of the car & opened her door. She took his arm & they headed for the tents.
  70. RT @susiebj: @BBCAA #bbcawdio "And here we go," said Jake. He looked Carly straight in the eye. "I'm with you all the way. Remember that."
  71. RT @Angela_Hunter: The vial! If she wanted to get hold of it, she would have to get close to that chest.
  72. RT @barbarathome: A tall bulky man got out of the limo. He was wearing a dark suit and Carly thought she saw something shine on his chest.
  73. RT @susiebj Expensive cars lined the road. Gorgeous people were everywhere but all eyes were on the limo pulling up to the valet.
  74. RT @susiebj: Jake smiled back and Carly's heart flipped. She looked quickly away and out the window. Bryant Park was just ahead.
  75. RT @mackenzie_finch: For a brief horrible moment she thought she'd gone too far, but then he laughed, quietly. "Thank you."
  76. RT @Taragel "Even if I have to kiss a hundred zombies." She joked, grinning.
  77. RT @glenbw: Jake smiled briefly. "Promise?" he asked.
  78. RT @barbarathome: "It won't", Carly finally said. "I'll help you make sure of it".
  79. RT @Angela_Hunter: "Since then I've done everything I can to make sure that doesn't happen to anyone else," Jake went on.
  80. RT @hazeltwilight: Now Carly really didn't know what to say. How to you comfort someone who's brother was killed by zombies?
  81. RT@mackenzie_finch"The zombies cornered him in an alleyway. Ripped him to pieces." He paused."I got there five minutes too late. Just five."
  82. RT @hazeltwilight: "Oh," Carly managed stupidly, "sorry."
  83. RT @mackenzie_finch: Jake's face set, his voice growing harder-edged. "My younger brother was a hunter. Was."
  84. RT @hazeltwilight: "Well," Carly paused, "how did you get involved with this stuff. The ZTF I mean."
  85. RT @jbsheehan: @BBCAA "Ask away," Jake said as he made a sharp left turn.
  86. RT @glenbw: @BBCAA "Jake, I'd like to ask you something," Carly finally opened her mouth after a long silence.
  87. RT @NatiVi: @BBCAA especially when it involved brand new clothes and attention of the hottest guy in the firm.
  88. RT @simon_staffans: Somehow she kind of liked her transformation from office drone to one of the most important people in the world.
  89. RT @mackenzie_finch: It was strange, Carly thought, how much someone's life could change in the space of a few hours.
