‘Ink Master: Rivals’ season 5, episode 7 preview: Emily Elegado’s illness, and little sympathy

Ink MasterLast week on “Ink Master: Rivals” Emily Elegado was given a straight up reality check: Both of her tattoos landed her in the bottom and Chris Nunez told her to her face that if he had his way that he would’ve sent her home over Robbie Scott (we will miss you Robbie!). Is the stress of the competition going to start to break Emily down?

In the preview for next week’s all new episode we saw Emily dealing with some sort of medical problem. She was outside of the loft, by herself, doubled over in pain. We already saw last week when Aaron Is had a tooth infection and the pain was so intense that it caused him to  check out of doing one of his tattoos in fear of not being able to give the canvas a good tattoo while in that much pain. Is this going to happen this week with Emily?

Some of the other artists will call her out and say that she’s not being 100% truthful about the situation and with the house basically being divided with Emily on one side and everyone else on the other, she probably wouldn’t have expected much sympathy from anyone.

As much pain as she was in, it isn’t going to stop Emily from lashing out at the other artists for talking about a situation that they don’t know enough about, and will say that they weren’t there with her in the bathroom and therefore really don’t know what they are talking about.
