Riddle Me This

So I finally get around to flipping through the official Lifetime photos for Episode 9 like I do every week (usually much earlier than Saturday night) when I run across this little number.

Stop. Double take. Is that Season 7 winner Seth Aaron Henderson chatting with the Elite Eight? And could that possibly be Irina Shabayeva sitting right next to him?

Did we see this? And if not, why not? Surely there was opportunity to be found in those 90 minutes of air time for a visit with the two former Project Runway champs. Swatch got more face time than these two. I guess we are stuck with imagining what that conversation was about. Any thoughts?
