Oh, Project Runway, I was considering divorcing you after this lackluster season.

But just when I'm ready file for legal separation, you lure me back in with an interesting, fast-paced episode. So I guess for now, we'll renew our vows.

Perhaps I'm feeling all romantical -- I learned this "word" on Flavor of Love. Everyone, read more books! -- because Runway charged designers with not one, but two challenges to determine which three would show at Fashion Week. We'll give you a hint: The competitions had to do with weddings.

Since the show moved along in short segments -- the designers all got home visits from Tim while they worked on collections -- it seemed like a perfect reason to write this recap in short snippets.

That's right, friends. It's haiku time!

Designers got an
eight thousand dollar budget
to make ten fierce looks.

The catch: One had to
be a wedding dress. Boo hoo!
No one wants this.

Kenley complained: The
others sabotaged her at
the last runway show.

Someone get me a
tissue. She's an innocent
flower! Poor, poor thing.

Korto: Arkansas.
Collection looks gorgeous, bright.
Yellows and greens.

One dress looks like a
vagina, Tim warns. Reptile-
print slit gives him pause.

Korto does African
drumming for Tim, shows off her
family and friends.

Leanne in Portland:
Collection inspired by
waterfront and waves.

Leanne and Tim
rode a tandem bike. Bike has
two baskets and bell.

Worse, Tim was wearing
a bicycle helmet and made
whimpering noises.

"Whooooa. Whooooa." Doesn't he
take taxis in New York? That
seems much scarier.

Rewind. "Whooooa. Whoooa. Whoooa."
I can't help it. It's funny
as hell. (Love you, Tim.)

Jerell in L.A.
He's grown a goatee, but is
wearing normal clothes.

Wow. His garments are
super gaudy. Flashback to
Olympic challenge.

Kenley in Brooklyn.
Tim calls her "sweetheart." Did Tim
have lobotomy?

Her fabrics are hand-
painted, pretty. She's humble.
(No, not a typo.)

Everybody meets
back in New York. Nobody
wants to see Kenley.

She arrives, says "sorry
for being a bitch." Water
under the bridge. Hugs!

New challenge: Make a
bridesmaid dress to match wedding
gown. Loser gets auf'd!

On the runway, it's
ball and chain time. Wedding gowns,
bridesmaid dresses shown.

Oh Jerell, what went
wrong since last time? He made a
Bridezilla set.

Bride dress has boob flaps,
jewels, gray netting. She has a
bouquet on her head.

Maid's dress: A drab, blue,
wrinkly mess. She'll never meet
a boy wearing that!

Leanne's dreamy frocks
impress judges. Nina too!
"Romantic, modern."

(I used to think L
was boring, but she might
have this thing sewn up.)

Korto's dresses are
the same, exact color. Why?
Also, overworked.

Heidi: "I would not
want to be the bride." (Amen,
sister!) "It never ends!"

Kenley dazzles with
feathered wedding gown and short,
cute, blue bridesmaid dress.

Judges dub Leanne
and Kenley the best. Korto
and Jerell wait, scared.

Sorry, Jerell. Your
gharish showgirl gowns will go
back in garment bags.

It's three ladies in
the finals. Next week: Season ends!
(Rewind to bike scene.)
