00:00:03Previously on RuPaul's Drag Race
00:00:05You need to use one of your eliminated sister's materials
00:00:09Whoa!
00:00:11To create festive fashions
00:00:12It had a lot of safety pins
00:00:13I wasn't expecting how many safety pins it was gonna have
00:00:15There are 800
00:00:16Bitch, safety pins was not in that goddamn suitcase
00:00:19That's some shenanigans
00:00:22Jane, don't
00:00:23You have done a miraculous job on it
00:00:26Can you please her?
00:00:27So technically well done
00:00:28I think this silhouette has perfect balance
00:00:31I'd like to say one of you is a winner, baby
00:00:34But first, I need to see your lip-sync
00:00:39Jane, don't
00:00:40You're a winner, baby
00:00:42Woo!
00:00:43Yes, Jane!
00:00:49Woo!
00:00:50Oh my God!
00:00:51100!
00:00:52Yes!
00:00:53We're back in the workroom and nobody was eliminated
00:00:56Even though everybody thought somebody should be eliminated
00:01:01Discord
00:01:03Oh my God!
00:01:05Oh!
00:01:06Half of 14 still
00:01:07Hey!
00:01:08Shit!
00:01:10Still
00:01:10Still seven
00:01:13Why is there still seven of us?
00:01:14That's annoying
00:01:15I was ready to get the numbers shorter
00:01:17Sorry, Discord
00:01:18Discord?
00:01:19Yes
00:01:20How do you feel post the who should go home question?
00:01:24Who should go home tonight?
00:01:26And why?
00:01:27I'm afraid I would have to say Discord
00:01:29Yes, the safety pins look great
00:01:31But it was not in the box
00:01:33I would say Discord
00:01:34Discord was not as resourceful
00:01:36I'll say Discord
00:01:37Discord could have pushed it further with using some other fabrics
00:01:43It does suck to have every single person say your name
00:01:46But it was like pretty safety pin based
00:01:49If you make it a part of your brand
00:01:51You can have as many exposed safety pins as you want
00:01:54She didn't care that she broke the rules of the challenge
00:01:56And she still stayed
00:01:57So
00:01:59Annoying
00:02:00All I heard was that Iman said I should be a designer
00:02:03I forgot that you guys want me to go home
00:02:06Because Iman wants me to be a designer
00:02:08My outfit is very clearly beautiful
00:02:11If all the girls would not have named me
00:02:13I could have been in the top
00:02:14Maybe I'll be in the top next week
00:02:18Now
00:02:18I think I need to be drinking whatever the fuck Miss Adams delusional ass is drinking
00:02:23Because bitch, it's working
00:02:25She does not give a fuck
00:02:27A flying fuck actually what we have to think
00:02:29Well, Jane, congrats
00:02:31Jane, extra congrats
00:02:33Yeah
00:02:34Congrats, Janey
00:02:36This was like the first time in this competition where I was sweating
00:02:39So I'm feeling shockingly confident
00:02:44Maybe I'm actually kind of good at this
00:02:46I am the first queen in the competition to get to three wins
00:02:51And I feel like this cements me as the front runner
00:02:55And I am just ready to take that energy and keep it moving
00:03:00Kenya, the very first week you were near the bottom for the design
00:03:04And now you're in the top for design
00:03:06To be in the top two for design challenge
00:03:09You better work
00:03:10Jesus! Oh! Lord! Patty! Lord!
00:03:14I need to buy a patty pie as soon as I get home
00:03:15Patty pie!
00:03:16I want a patty pie right now, bitch
00:03:18Jane, is this how it feels?
00:03:20It's nice, right?
00:03:21It's really good
00:03:22Honey, I've had a mid-season turnaround
00:03:24Thank you, Jesus!
00:03:26For the past two weeks, I feel like I've been killing these challenges
00:03:29But I'm getting edged and edged and edged
00:03:32And bitch, I need to bust
00:03:34Bitch, I want to win
00:03:35I came close
00:03:36She snatched out my bosom
00:03:38I'm Jane Duck
00:03:39I don't do anything bad
00:03:41Because I win everything!
00:03:44God damn it!
00:03:46I'm one of the few girls without a win
00:03:48And Jane has been in the top every single week
00:03:52And it would be so nice to see her at least safe
00:03:56Jane, Jane, Jane, Jane, Jane
00:03:58Kenya, you're gonna show girls Jane?
00:04:00Yeah, I'm gonna piss at her contact solutions
00:04:02I'm Nancy Kerrigan in those kneecaps
00:04:08The winner of RuPaul's Drag Race
00:04:11Will snatch an official makeup collaboration
00:04:13With Anastasia Beverly Hills Cosmetics
00:04:15And a cash prize of $200,000

00:04:29Drag queen win
00:04:35It's a new day
00:04:37It is a brand new day in the workroom
00:04:40And bitch, I feel good, honey
00:04:42I'm still relishing off of my top placement from last week
00:04:45It does feel good that we did a whole challenge
00:04:47And they were like, you all are too sickening
00:04:50So we gotta keep you all
00:04:51Do you think there could be a
00:04:52The judges could catch up and do a double elimination?
00:04:55Nene, let's nod

00:05:36Good morning.
00:05:38I want you to stop and take a moment
00:05:40to celebrate the sweet smell of success.
00:05:45Because for today's mini challenge,
00:05:47you need to say it and spray it

00:06:21The first step in this mini challenge
00:06:22is picking which fragrance we will be making our ad for.
00:06:26Whoa.
00:06:28I think I'm gonna choose this one.
00:06:29Now that we've chosen our fragrances,
00:06:31it's time to go make a commercial.
00:06:34Okay, queens.
00:06:35Let's take a look at your perfume videos.
00:06:38Jane, don't.
00:06:39You kiss your mother with that mouth?
00:06:42Bitch, please.
00:06:43By confessions of a rebel, I'm not delusional.
00:06:46You are!

00:07:14Oh, yes.
00:07:16By confessions of a rebel.
00:07:17For the gal who has everything.
00:07:20Except boundaries.
00:07:23Mikey Meeks.
00:07:25Men say I'm high maintenance.
00:07:26I prefer luxury model.
00:07:31I'm expensive.

00:08:26Catch feelings by Five Cents.
00:08:28I'm not angry.
00:08:29I'm just disappointed.
00:08:33Yeah.
00:08:34Lady Kings, you are all smell-o-quent.
00:08:38But one of you hit just the right top note.
00:08:42The winner of today's mini challenge is...
00:08:45Mikey Meeks.
00:08:49Another mini challenge win?
00:08:51I'm on a hot streak.
00:08:52This week.
00:08:53You've won a cash prize of $2,500.
00:08:56Yes.
00:08:56Oh my gosh.
00:08:57Courtesy of Scentbird.
00:08:58Thank you, Scentbird.
00:09:00My queens.
00:09:01In the Drag Race multiverse, there is one superstar who is truly out of her mind.
00:09:09Only one?
00:09:10For this week's maxi challenge, you'll be toasting and roasting the winner of RuPaul's Drag Race Global All-Stars.
00:09:17Oh my god.
00:09:19Alyssa Edwards.
00:09:23The one and only Miss Alyssa Edwards.
00:09:28You know, Division Season 5, Division All-Stars 2, and the winner of Global All-Stars.
00:09:34And remember, she don't get cute.
00:09:35Oh, she gets rock-dead gorgeous.
00:09:39Alyssa is known for her tongue pop, her floor work as Annie Oakley, fighting with Kokomon trees.
00:09:45God, look how orange you fucking look, girl.
00:09:48For her many, many catchphrases.
00:09:50Back rolls.
00:09:52Gila monster.
00:09:53Grigamorous, girl.
00:09:54You think you're clever, don't you?
00:09:57Now later today, you'll workshop your toast material with Michelle Visage.
00:10:02Ooh.
00:10:02And the shilarious, Atsuko Okatsuka.
00:10:09I love Rose.
00:10:10This is such an essential component of what being a drag queen is about.
00:10:15It's reading, it's comedy writing.
00:10:18So I'm extremely excited to do this.
00:10:21Now tomorrow on the main stage, you'll raise your glasses and asses as you give a toast to Alyssa Edwards.
00:10:29Okay.
00:10:32At this point in the competition, it's really important to get a win, but I don't really quite know how
00:10:39to roast.
00:10:40Now Mikey, as the winner of today's mini-challenge, you get to pick the toast order.
00:10:48Hoopie-koopie.
00:10:49Racers, start your engines, and may the best drag queen win.
00:10:53Yeah!
00:10:55Woo!
00:10:55For this roast, everybody's fair game, including the other queens.
00:10:59And the queens feel that I come in hot, so every time that I say anything, it's getting hit with,
00:11:05Ooh, woo, woo!
00:11:07And now I've got to roast these girls.
00:11:09Ugh.
00:11:13This week's maxi challenge, we are roasting and toasting the one and only Miss Alyssa Edwards.
00:11:19Oh, I can't say that.
00:11:20Oh, I can't say that.
00:11:21Oh, I can't say that.
00:11:21Oh, I can't say that.
00:11:22And girl, I'm excited.
00:11:24I feel like I'm a funny bitch.
00:11:26I've never roasted.
00:11:28I'm not a roaster.
00:11:29That's so strange.
00:11:30You are such a mean, despicable person.
00:11:33I would have figured this isn't your wheelhouse.
00:11:35I would think that...
00:11:40I'm sorry.
00:11:42That's where you go, you too.
00:11:45So for this roast, I'm just kind of coming up with words that I find funny.
00:11:50It's time for Alyssa Edwards to quit drag, full stop.
00:11:53Bitch, sit your ass down and shut the hell up, bitch.
00:11:58That's not a joke.
00:12:02Anyway, who do you think is going home this week?
00:12:05Well, with the flames coming off of this paper, it's not gonna be me, girl.
00:12:10I'm making myself laugh.
00:12:15So I'm hoping that that translates.
00:12:18Yeah, get those hands nice and warm because they keep coming out of here.
00:12:25Oh God, I don't know what to do with my first.
00:12:28I get to pick the order of the roast, which is a bit daunting.
00:12:32Are you trying to be shady or are you trying to make a good roast?
00:12:35Or both?
00:12:36Or both?
00:12:37Top seven.
00:12:38Yeah.
00:12:38I have to be strategic in some ways.
00:12:41If I was her, I'd be shady boots.
00:12:45But don't do that to me.
00:12:47Bitch, don't do that to me.
00:12:48Mikey, stop!
00:12:52Hi.
00:12:53Hi.
00:12:54Class is in session.
00:12:56It is time to meet up with our comedy coaches.
00:12:59I have set the order of the roast and we're doing a table read, so that means we're all hearing
00:13:04each other's critiques.
00:13:05Oh my gosh, with the notebooks.
00:13:07They're gonna need them.
00:13:08Yup.
00:13:09Say hello to Asko Okatsuka.
00:13:12Hello!
00:13:13Hi, hi.
00:13:14Oh my gosh, nice to meet you.
00:13:16She is a comedian, actress and writer and she's here to help with your toast jokes.
00:13:21I am so excited to be here and yeah, let's have fun.
00:13:25Starting with Discord.
00:13:26Hi.
00:13:27Now Discord, you're the first up.
00:13:29Mikey, you did the order.
00:13:31I did.
00:13:31Was that sabotage, putting Discord first?
00:13:34Last week, we all said that she should go home, so I do think it's a chance to push herself.
00:13:40All is fair in love and drag.
00:13:41How do you feel about that?
00:13:43Um, I've done roasts before and then they're like, wow, you actually are funny.
00:13:48Okay.
00:13:49So you're setting the bar kind of high, saying that this is kind of your wheelhouse.
00:13:54Yeah, you know, I go into everything delusionally confident, so.
00:13:57And I love that.
00:13:58So let's see what you're working with.
00:14:00When Alyssa takes off her makeup, the features are gone, honey.
00:14:02I've seen more chin on an earthworm.
00:14:05What else you got?
00:14:06The only thing getting older than RuPaul are jokes about RuPaul being old.
00:14:09Seriously, girls, the material's right in front of you.
00:14:12Test her memory.
00:14:13Quick, Ru, what's her name?
00:14:15I like it.
00:14:15You did do her a favor by putting her first.
00:14:19Yeah.
00:14:20Incredible start.
00:14:21This is one challenge that I feel I can really excel at.
00:14:25And if I can just beat Jane out this time, I could get a win here.
00:14:29Jane, don't.
00:14:30You come up right after Discord.
00:14:32Yeah.
00:14:32So what was your thinking with that?
00:14:34Don't be near Jane.
00:14:36Hey!
00:14:37Well, I decided to take a real left turn.
00:14:40Oh.
00:14:41And we're starting with Michelle as a whore jokes.
00:14:43Yeah, no, my favorite.
00:14:44My favorite.
00:14:44Yes, of course.
00:14:45Michelle has had so many men from New Jersey inside of her that when you hold her vagina
00:14:49up to your ear, you can hear Bon Jovi.
00:14:52Oh, my God.
00:14:54Don't tell me anymore.
00:14:55I want to laugh.
00:14:56Okay, okay, okay.
00:14:56You got it.
00:14:57I am following Jane, the funniest bitch in the room.
00:15:00Oh, shit.
00:15:01I have a tough act to follow.
00:15:02Don't I?
00:15:04Juicy Love Dion.
00:15:05Are you nervous?
00:15:06How are you feeling about this, Juicy?
00:15:07Um, I wouldn't necessarily consider myself a comedian.
00:15:10Okay, no.
00:15:10I know you're a dancing queen.
00:15:12I know I'm following Jane.
00:15:13I definitely have to keep the energy up.
00:15:17Not just energy.
00:15:18You need to have confidence.
00:15:19Yes.
00:15:19Here we go, Juice.
00:15:20My name is Juicy Love Dion, and I promise I'm not dumb.
00:15:24I just have bad luck thinking.
00:15:27But enough about me being born from the top of a ladder.
00:15:31Wait, I don't get it.
00:15:32Being born...
00:15:33Like, dropped from the top of...
00:15:35Dropped on her head as a baby.
00:15:36If you have to explain it.
00:15:38It's pretty funny, you know?
00:15:40You're born from the top of a ladder.
00:15:41Like, you're instantly dropped on your head.
00:15:44That's what...
00:15:44That's...
00:15:45Okay, I'm not getting any laughs in the room right now.
00:15:52If you're gonna lean into, like, I'm dumb...
00:15:55Yeah.
00:15:56Bring a character to it.
00:15:58Okay.
00:15:58Right?
00:15:59And that could be in your inflection, in your delivery.
00:16:01Think of people who have made it their thing.
00:16:04Goldie Hawn.
00:16:05Mm-hmm.
00:16:06Jessica Simpson.
00:16:07Yes.
00:16:07If you're gonna do it, then do it.
00:16:10Mm-hmm.
00:16:11If that's what you choose.
00:16:13Darlene Mitchell!
00:16:14Do you have, like, a joke that you might do?
00:16:17Yeah.
00:16:18Alyssa was stripped of her 2010 Miss Gay America title for conflicts of interest with the organization.
00:16:23The real conflict of interest that she should be concerned with is how those shoulders still don't match those hips.
00:16:29It's a long way to go for that punchline.
00:16:31You're gonna get through one girl.
00:16:32Okay.
00:16:33Alyssa was one of the most talented dancers this show has ever seen.
00:16:37But now, a jump split is more like a jump splat!
00:16:44Uh, Discord, you're writing a lot.
00:16:46Yeah.
00:16:46Are you writing jokes?
00:16:47Or are you copying jokes?
00:16:48Oh.
00:16:49Darlene's really, really bad joke that she just told.
00:16:52I promise you I'm not stealing that.
00:16:54Jump splat!
00:16:56Jump splat!
00:16:56That's a good one.
00:16:57Thunderline.
00:16:58The Arrietty over here.
00:17:00Yeah.
00:17:00You have a really twisted sense of humor.
00:17:03Yeah.
00:17:03So, it's just waiting to come out.
00:17:06But it's gotta be grand enough for us to see that.
00:17:09Otherwise, it'll be like, ooh.
00:17:10See?
00:17:11Yeah.
00:17:12Lean into the physical humor, too.
00:17:13Okay.
00:17:14Nene Coco!
00:17:15Hello!
00:17:16Hi!
00:17:16Should I try some of the Alyssa jokes?
00:17:18Sure!
00:17:18Jokes?
00:17:18Okay.
00:17:19There's a few things I know about Texas.
00:17:21Everything is bigger there.
00:17:22And by everything, I mean Alyssa's old overbite.
00:17:25Oh, okay.
00:17:26I feel like I look like Alyssa Edwards
00:17:28if Alyssa Edwards was good at makeup.
00:17:34The jokes that I wanna tell are not landing,
00:17:37and I'm trying to shrink myself
00:17:39because I don't want to...
00:17:41I don't know.
00:17:43I gotta figure this out.
00:17:44I feel like something I struggle with
00:17:46is the girls.
00:17:47They always say that I come in really hot
00:17:49with shade sometimes.
00:17:51Who says that about you?
00:17:52I think everybody.
00:17:54Everybody.
00:17:54The tough part for me is
00:17:55I do laugh along with it,
00:17:57but like, you know,
00:17:58sometimes I feel like now when I do speak up,
00:18:00they're always just like,
00:18:02whoa!
00:18:03No matter what I say,
00:18:04even if it's like,
00:18:05the girl next to me says the same thing.
00:18:07I'm trying to just make sure
00:18:08that I still show them love
00:18:10and not just like feel like
00:18:12I'm attacking them all the time.
00:18:13It sounds to me
00:18:15like this could potentially hold you back.
00:18:17I do not want you to do that.
00:18:19Maybe you're just not skilled at reading the room.
00:18:21I feel like I'm getting caught up
00:18:23in my own social anxiety about all of this,
00:18:25and I'm getting so stifled
00:18:27by what I can and cannot do,
00:18:29and it's causing me to spiral.
00:18:32Yeah.
00:18:34You've heard me say it a million times.
00:18:36There's a fine line between mean
00:18:38Right.
00:18:39and roasting somebody,
00:18:40or mean and shady.
00:18:41Shade is said with a wink, wink,
00:18:43nudge, nudge behind it.
00:18:44Yeah.
00:18:44You can do it, NeNe.
00:18:46Now, Kenya, you are funny.
00:18:48And you light up a room.
00:18:49You are filled with charisma,
00:18:52but are you filled with jokes?
00:18:53Michelle, I'm going to fucking try.
00:18:55Go on, Kenya.
00:18:56My time in this competition
00:18:57is a lot like my dating history,
00:18:59a lot of bottoming while a tall black man
00:19:01tells me to beat my inner saboteur.
00:19:03Speaking of inner saboteur,
00:19:05hi, Darlene.
00:19:06Can I borrow some of those lovely bricks
00:19:07that you call shoes?
00:19:09You have your perspective down,
00:19:11so you have, like, the hard part down.
00:19:13Yeah, it's really just then committing
00:19:15to that voice.
00:19:16Right.
00:19:16Mikey Meeks.
00:19:17Hi.
00:19:18Mikey, you put yourself last.
00:19:20I did.
00:19:20Wow!
00:19:21She wants to be the closer.
00:19:25All right, let's hear some of the stuff
00:19:26that you got.
00:19:27Okay.
00:19:28Last year, Alyssa was crowned
00:19:30queen of the mother tucking world.
00:19:33We're never getting out of this trade war.
00:19:35Okay.
00:19:35Alyssa's idea of foreign policy
00:19:37is ordering extra breadsticks at Olive Garden.
00:19:41Alyssa embodies everything about C-U-N-T.
00:19:45Charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and testosterone.
00:19:50I think it's good.
00:19:51Any questions for us?
00:19:53Do y'all validate parking?
00:19:57It's a little...
00:19:58Yeah, time's up.
00:19:59After meeting with the comedy coaches,
00:20:01part of me is like, is this good enough?
00:20:04Do I have what it takes to close out the roast?
00:20:08Can I live to the expectation?
00:20:10I don't know.
00:20:12I don't know.
00:20:12I don't know.
00:20:14I don't know.
00:20:16I don't know.
00:20:18I don't know.
00:20:20I don't know.
00:20:21I don't know.
00:20:21I don't know.
00:20:22I don't know.
00:20:22Today's the day we will be delivering a roast
00:20:23in front of Alyssa herself and the judges.
00:20:26And I am nervous.
00:20:29This is gonna be something.
00:20:33Here comes Darlene, dragging her little car.
00:20:36You look like you're selling Mary Kay.
00:20:41Can you please her?
00:20:43Mikey, how are you feeling?
00:20:45I woke up high on the wrong side of the bed this morning.
00:20:48I think the anxiety got to me a little bit.
00:20:50To be honest, I'm a little in my head right now.
00:20:53I am feeling the pressure of having to close the roast.
00:20:57So overnight, I rewrote the roast.
00:21:01After the rewrites and looking at the material,
00:21:04I think I found what I want to say.
00:21:07It's a little pressure.
00:21:08Closing it out.
00:21:09And I did that to myself.
00:21:10Girl, I'm going right before you.
00:21:11Yes, how do you feel?
00:21:12I feel very good.
00:21:14Yeah?
00:21:15She's feeling good from her head to her shoes.
00:21:17Let me add a suit, bitch.
00:21:18Right.
00:21:18Down.
00:21:19I feel like it's in a good place,
00:21:21but honey, I fucked up Snatch Game.
00:21:25I cannot fuck this up.
00:21:27It's showtime, folks.
00:21:29And I need to, I need to, I need to get up in this gig, girl.
00:21:33How are we feeling?
00:21:34I don't know.
00:21:35I feel like this whole process has really let me know
00:21:38that my brain works so differently than everyone else in the room.
00:21:43You know what I mean?
00:21:44Like, it's not the typical, like, set up, set up, punch line.
00:21:48Here's the knife.
00:21:49You know what I mean?
00:21:50It's not going to be how the other girls
00:21:52are technically putting together a roast joke,
00:21:54but I'm going to get some laughs, I hope.
00:21:57A different flavor is sometimes appreciated,
00:22:00but sometimes a different flavor can flop.
00:22:04It's a big swing, but at this point in the competition,
00:22:07without having a win, I need to swing big.
00:22:12How's yours going, NeNe?
00:22:13I think it's funny.
00:22:14Did you keep some of your signature NeNe sting?
00:22:17Ah, you know, we'll see.
00:22:20It's elimination day and I'm nervous.
00:22:21I feel that the table read was interesting.
00:22:24A lot of feelings were put out on the table.
00:22:27I'm still trying to connect all the dots.
00:22:29All right, I'm going to check in with NeNe.
00:22:31NeNe seems to be having a tough time getting her footing.
00:22:36NeNe, how are you feeling?
00:22:38I know yesterday you were feeling emotional.
00:22:42How are we with that today?
00:22:45I don't know.
00:22:46Like, this whole competition have been telling myself,
00:22:48like, I know who I am.
00:22:50I know what I can do, all this stuff,
00:22:51but then it's in those moments
00:22:53that these insecurities crack through,
00:22:55and I'm like, what the fuck is going on?
00:23:00I think Michelle was right.
00:23:02It was like, I sometimes don't know how to read the room,
00:23:03and I'm trying to figure out, like, I want to connect with y'all,
00:23:08and I, like, struggle to do that in moments.
00:23:11It's okay that sometimes you just, like, kind of come in hot.
00:23:13To my mind, what seems like it might be helpful is, like,
00:23:15I do think you just need to, like, own it a little bit.
00:23:18It's better to just own that and be like,
00:23:20that just is who you are, I think,
00:23:23than to get in your head about it,
00:23:24because in my experience,
00:23:25that's when those moments get, like, worse.
00:23:28And I think, you know, obviously it sounds like
00:23:30we could all probably stand to be a bit more, like, sensitive
00:23:32about not, like, going in quite so hard on it.
00:23:35I do just want to, like, keep with the girls.
00:23:37Right.
00:23:37I don't want to have to tiptoe around y'all.
00:23:38I don't want y'all have to tiptoe around me.
00:23:40I came into the competition knowing
00:23:41that I could handle a challenge,
00:23:44but I was not expecting to deal
00:23:46with all of the social interactions
00:23:49that came with this competition.
00:23:51All right, well, it's been good talking to you.
00:23:53Good talk.
00:23:53Winnie the Pooh.
00:23:54Can I give you a hug?
00:23:55Yeah.
00:23:57I think you're cool, Jane.
00:23:58No matter what.
00:23:59Anybody else.
00:24:00Fuck off!
00:24:01I know that I can be funny,
00:24:03and especially coming off the Snatch Game,
00:24:05I know that I can make this roast good.
00:24:07I've just got to really lean in
00:24:09to the material that I've got
00:24:11and hope that I can sell it
00:24:12without being a total bitch.
00:24:18Why you mad?
00:24:20Because my pussy pops more severely
00:24:22in your zone.
00:24:24Yeah.
00:24:25I love your laugh, Mikey.
00:24:26Yeah.
00:24:27Yeah.
00:24:28It kind of sounds like you're powering down.
00:24:30Honey, we all know when Mikey powers down,
00:24:32it's getting ridiculous.
00:24:33Mikey is crazy.
00:24:35She will literally be in the middle of talking.
00:24:37She'll be like, you know what?
00:24:38Mm-mm.
00:24:39I actually saw you power down during the table read.
00:24:42You were like...
00:24:45It was after the...
00:24:47Why did you put yourself last?
00:24:51Mikey, you put yourself last.
00:24:52I did.
00:24:53She wants to be the closer.
00:24:57Yeah, I don't know.
00:24:58I'm a weird person.
00:25:00Sometimes I'm talking to myself in my brain,
00:25:02and I genuinely power down.
00:25:05Yeah.
00:25:09See?
00:25:10What the fuck is wrong with this bitch?
00:25:13Ooh, I'm back.
00:25:15Where she goes, we do not know what's happening in that noggin.
00:25:19Mikey fully might be a robot at this point.
00:25:39How the girl, put the bass in your walk.
00:25:43Head to toe, let your whole body top.
00:25:47Wow.
00:25:47Yes!
00:25:49What?
00:25:49Welcome to the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race.
00:25:52Here's looking at you, kid.
00:25:54It's Michelle Visage.
00:25:56L'chaim.
00:25:59Cheers, my queers.
00:26:01It's Ross Matthews.
00:26:02Bottoms up.
00:26:06And the wonderful Oksko Okatsuka.
00:26:10Here's to the best bowl cut in the business.
00:26:13Move over, Beatles.
00:26:15I'm serving John and Yoko.
00:26:19This week, we challenge our queens to toast
00:26:22the incomparable Alyssa Edwards.
00:26:25Racers, start your engines,
00:26:27and may the best drag queen win.
00:26:32From beautiful downtown Pacoima,
00:26:36it's a toast to Alyssa Edwards.
00:26:40Now, here's Alyssa.
00:26:44Oh!
00:26:45Oh, my goodness!
00:26:50Jesus!
00:26:51Oh, mama!
00:26:52Oh, mama!
00:26:53Oh, mama!
00:26:53Welcome, darling.
00:26:55Thank you for the invitation
00:26:56to the annual family roast.
00:26:58But to you ladies,
00:27:00I want all of y'all to take a good look at this
00:27:03before you annihilate me.
00:27:05Cause it's never gonna get this good for you.
00:27:11Now, let's start this shindig.
00:27:12Come on.
00:27:15First up, it's Discord Adam.
00:27:17Yes!
00:27:19Good evening, good evening, good evening!
00:27:21And welcome to the toast of the dancing diva
00:27:24of Mesquite, Texas.
00:27:26A woman whose back rolls enter the room before she does.
00:27:29Ooh!
00:27:30The beautiful, the honorable,
00:27:32the unintelligible,
00:27:34Alyssa Edwards!
00:27:37So let's start with a toast, shall we?
00:27:39Uh-huh.
00:27:40Here is to honor.
00:27:42Hitting on her.
00:27:43Kissing on her.
00:27:45Loving on her.
00:27:46And if you can't come in her,
00:27:48come on her.
00:27:49Michelle knows what I'm talking about.
00:27:52Oh, yeah!
00:27:54We can't forget the queen of all queens, RuPaul!
00:28:00But, you know, uh-oh.
00:28:02She spilled her drink.
00:28:03Let's get real here.
00:28:05The only thing older than RuPaul
00:28:07are jokes about RuPaul being old.
00:28:10No, no.
00:28:11I'm joking, everyone.
00:28:12Without RuPaul and her legacy,
00:28:14I would not be standing here today
00:28:15waiting for these girls to bomb.
00:28:19But now it's time for the beast of the hour.
00:28:23Does anybody even know what Alyssa is saying?
00:28:25Chirpin' like a, squirpin' like a...
00:28:27Rig-a-Morris.
00:28:29Seriously, trying to figure you out
00:28:31is harder than Kenya
00:28:32reading the menu at the Cheesecake Factory.
00:28:36Cause I'm fat.
00:28:37When Alyssa takes her makeup off,
00:28:39the features are gone, honey.
00:28:41I have seen more features on an egg.
00:28:45There are jokes.
00:28:47It's just that they're not that funny.
00:28:48Maybe it's the Sith Lord hood.
00:28:51It just doesn't feel fun.
00:28:53And now it's time for the top.
00:28:54We are all dying to see bottom.
00:28:55Welcome, Jane Doan.
00:29:00Thank you, Lord Voldemort.
00:29:03It's an honor to be in a room full
00:29:05of such extraordinary queer artists
00:29:07and Nene Coco.
00:29:10RuPaul is here.
00:29:12RuPaul is so old,
00:29:13the first time she asked,
00:29:15why it gotta be black,
00:29:16she was talking about the plague.
00:29:19But enough about RuPaul.
00:29:21Let's talk about her dedicated team
00:29:23of elder care specialists.
00:29:25Hi, Michelle.
00:29:26Hi.
00:29:27Michelle famously placed seventh
00:29:29on Strictly Cum Dancing,
00:29:31but she always places first
00:29:33on Strictly Cum Guzzling.
00:29:39I cannot believe
00:29:40that I am in the presence
00:29:42of the Ross Matthews,
00:29:45or as he's known by most of America,
00:29:47that faggot on the Drew Barrymore show.
00:29:52I love that one.
00:29:54It's true.
00:29:56Mikey Meeks is here.
00:29:57Everybody give it up for Mikey.
00:29:58Yeah.
00:29:59Mikey has a BFA.
00:30:00That's right.
00:30:02A blown out fucking asshole.
00:30:05It's true.
00:30:07What?
00:30:08A BFA?
00:30:10But on to the woman of the hour,
00:30:13Alyssa Edwards.
00:30:14Alyssa, you are the pride of Texas.
00:30:17Oh, wait. I'm sorry.
00:30:17I read that wrong.
00:30:18Alyssa, your back is as wide as Texas.
00:30:21I'd love to make jokes about you losing crowns,
00:30:24but I don't want to bring up your teeth.
00:30:26And now, give it up for the one child
00:30:29George Bush left behind.
00:30:31It's Juicy Love Dion!
00:30:34That was good, bitch.
00:30:36Jane's too smart.
00:30:38She's really good at this.
00:30:39Now I got to follow her.
00:30:41Damn.
00:30:42We are gathered here today
00:30:43to celebrate the career of Alyssa Edwards.
00:30:47But first, Michelle Visage.
00:30:50Hi, Michelle.
00:30:51Hi.
00:30:52The only thing drier than Michelle's humor
00:30:54is Ross Matthews' vagina.
00:30:56That's true.
00:30:57I'm so glad you can take time off
00:31:00from being Drew Barrymore's new pet gay
00:31:03to come back to being RuPaul's Bichon Frise.
00:31:08We missed you.
00:31:12Girl, what is Juicy even talking about?
00:31:13I don't know.
00:31:14I can't even follow, but I know it's not funny.
00:31:16Ru, a few weeks ago you asked me a very tough question.
00:31:21Who are you?
00:31:21And I had to dig really deep for this answer.
00:31:26I'm Juicy Love Dion!
00:31:30Not Georges!
00:31:34And finally, our guest of honor, Alyssa Edwards.
00:31:39You know, watching you be such a great dance teacher
00:31:42and mentor on Dancing Queen,
00:31:44all I could think about is,
00:31:46wow.
00:31:49I can't believe I have nothing better to do
00:31:51than watch Dancing Queen.
00:31:52Oh!
00:31:52You really inspire me to be a better dancer,
00:31:55actor,
00:31:56and comedian.
00:31:58Because if not,
00:31:59then it's gonna take me three tries
00:32:00to win RuPaul's Drag Race.
00:32:03Well, bitch, at this rate,
00:32:04it's gonna take more than three.
00:32:07Oh, bless Juicy's heart.
00:32:09This is not her challenge.
00:32:12And now, a woman who brought to this competition
00:32:17her soft heart and hard fronts.
00:32:20It's Darlene Mitchell.
00:32:23You've heard of Carrot Top,
00:32:25but have you ever heard of Carrot Bottom?
00:32:30Hello RuPaul.
00:32:31Ru, this show is truly a unique,
00:32:33unmatched experience.
00:32:36A room full of queens struggling to top.
00:32:38Some of us top.
00:32:40One doesn't.
00:32:41Hi Discord!
00:32:46The room is honestly pretty quiet.
00:32:49I need to turn this around.
00:32:51I am just going for it.
00:32:53These girls have been calling me
00:32:55a prop queen all season,
00:32:57and I just don't see it.
00:33:01Oh look!
00:33:02A burger!
00:33:07Can you please-er?
00:33:09We told her we were having a roast tonight,
00:33:11and this bitch showed up
00:33:12with coleslaw and macaroni!
00:33:17And now, let's talk about the other big girl.
00:33:21And I'm talking about Alyssa Edwards.
00:33:25Ego.
00:33:27What, too harsh?
00:33:28How about I see it with a clown nose?
00:33:30Honk, honk!
00:33:32What?
00:33:35She looks so excited to be here.
00:33:37But that just must be all that illegal Botox.
00:33:42What?
00:33:49This is the most unhinged thing that I have ever seen in a roast,
00:33:53and I think I like it?
00:33:56Group haul!
00:33:58Getting to know you these past few weeks,
00:34:00I feel like I can confidently assume
00:34:03gerbils are not off the table for you, mama!
00:34:07Am I right?
00:34:12Bossy Rossy!
00:34:13Hi!
00:34:14Ross, you just make me so horny.
00:34:16I could reach under the desk right now
00:34:18to get a top placement tonight.
00:34:22Banana!
00:34:26That's it for me.
00:34:28And up next...
00:34:30Ninicoco!
00:34:32And one more thing, Michelle.
00:34:34What?
00:34:36Why you mad?
00:34:39Darlene!
00:34:40Darlene!
00:34:43Darlene's roast set will go down in history.
00:34:45It is so completely batshit insane.
00:34:49This is genius.
00:34:52Welcome back to a toast to Alyssa Edwards.
00:34:55Thank you, everyone.
00:34:57Let's give it up one more time for Darlene Mitchell!
00:35:01Yes, Darlene!
00:35:02You know, out of drag, she's kind of the trait of the season.
00:35:05Um, I would hook up with her,
00:35:07but I'd have to put a bag over her artistic choices
00:35:10to be able to do so.
00:35:13Before we get to the handsome woman of the hour,
00:35:16I would like to take a moment to celebrate the judges.
00:35:19For those that don't know,
00:35:21RuPaul is the first drag queen ever...
00:35:28Ru is so old, her new Covergirl remix goes from
00:35:32put that base in your walk
00:35:34to put tennis balls on the base of that walker.
00:35:39Also, Ross is here.
00:35:42Ross was on Celebrity Big Brother.
00:35:44Who looked at Ross and said,
00:35:45yeah, celebrity?
00:35:48Hair.
00:35:50Atsuko is here.
00:35:51It was an honor to meet you yesterday.
00:35:53My first thought was, wow, I'm really craving coconuts.
00:35:57My second thought, who does your hair?
00:35:59I'd like to avoid them.
00:36:01Oh, come on.
00:36:02On to the superstar herself.
00:36:05People constantly tell me that I look like Alyssa Edwards.
00:36:09Do you see it?
00:36:10Yes. I do see it a little bit.
00:36:12And it might be because we share the same foundation shade.
00:36:15White privilege.
00:36:19Back in the day, the phrase, everything is bigger in Texas,
00:36:22had exclusively applied to her overbite.
00:36:25But that is all for me.
00:36:27And up next, we have a bathroom queen.
00:36:29Which means, if you need to take a potty break,
00:36:31now's the time to do it.
00:36:33It's Kenya Pleaser!
00:36:35Thank you so much, Nene, for that.
00:36:40Honey, when I heard we were toasting,
00:36:42I got really excited,
00:36:43and I bought all the jelly I could find in a 30-mile radius.
00:36:46It must be jelly, cause jam, don't shake, girl.
00:36:49Yes, bitch.
00:36:50See, my time in this competition
00:36:51has been a lot like my dating history.
00:36:55Plenty of bottoming.
00:36:57While a black man tells me to beat the inner saboteur.
00:37:02Speaking of inner saboteur,
00:37:03hi, Darlene.
00:37:04Can I borrow some of those shoes that you call bricks?
00:37:07Or some of those bricks that you call shoes?
00:37:11The judges have been on Discard's walk all season long.
00:37:15Discard's walk is so stiff and uncomfortable to look at,
00:37:18it reminds me of Ross Matthews.
00:37:20It does, truly.
00:37:22Mm-hmm.
00:37:25Crickets.
00:37:27Crickets.
00:37:28That's the only thing I hear.
00:37:29There is not a single joke landing.
00:37:33Alyssa, I love and adore you so very much.
00:37:36Me and Alyssa have so much in common.
00:37:39We're both from the South.
00:37:40Mm-hmm.
00:37:41Mm-hmm.
00:37:42We both love sweet tea.
00:37:44We do.
00:37:45We do, yes.
00:37:46And we both have back rolls.
00:37:50Bitch, we both share back rolls, honey.
00:37:52And Alyssa, I totally understood you when you called Riga Morris, honey.
00:37:56But bitch, could you call us something else?
00:37:57I heard Riga and I got scared, bitch.
00:38:00I was like, what the fuck does she call us?
00:38:05Kenya, energy, ten.
00:38:07Jokes, two.
00:38:09And closing out our toast and our roast for this evening,
00:38:13a beast of a woman.
00:38:14I mean, my good sister, Mikey Meeks.
00:38:19Woo!
00:38:20Well, wasn't that terrible?
00:38:25Good evening, everyone.
00:38:27I am the drag ingenue, Mikey Meeks.
00:38:31We have some amazing queens who perform tonight.
00:38:34Discord Adams is here.
00:38:36Her place in the competition is like Jane Doan's hairline.
00:38:40Receding.
00:38:44Juicy is such a slut.
00:38:46When she says the juice is loose, she means it.
00:38:53Ross, so good to see you.
00:38:56And I'm happy Drew Barrymore let you out of her basement.
00:38:59Yeah.
00:39:00Rossi puts the lotion on his skin or else it gets the hose again.
00:39:07We are here today to celebrate a leader, a mentor, and a teacher.
00:39:13Which is why Texas may be last in education.
00:39:17Alyssa Edwards.
00:39:19Oh my fucking bitch!
00:39:21Last year, Alyssa was crowned queen of the mother-talking world.
00:39:26Really?
00:39:27What do you know about global issues?
00:39:30To her, a trade war is when her tricks find out she's a top.
00:39:40Bitch, Mikey, why are you so good?
00:39:43Oh, I'm living.
00:39:44We love you, queens.
00:39:46Woo!
00:39:48And now, let's give the last word to the star of the night, Alyssa Edwards.
00:39:56What a night to remember, Ru.
00:39:59Thank you so very much for inviting me.
00:40:01I have just one thing to say to these monsters.
00:40:06I don't get cute, I get drop-dead gorgeous.
00:40:08I don't get cute, I get drop-dead gorgeous.
00:40:10I don't get cute, drop-dead gorgeous.
00:40:12I don't get cute, drop-dead gorgeous.
00:40:14I don't get cute, drop-dead gorgeous.
00:40:14I'm feeling good, feeling gorgeous.
00:40:16I'm feeling good, feeling gorgeous.
00:40:23I don't get cute, I get drop-dead gorgeous.
00:40:37Follow this act, you bitches.
00:40:49The category is Swept Away, a first Discord Adams.
00:40:54Don't you just love riding a hog? My favorite.
00:40:58Swept Away, a runway outfit that blows in the wind.
00:41:02Bitch, I'm a motorcycle. I am metal head to toe.
00:41:07I have flames shooting off of my back.
00:41:10This is very punk. This is very metal.
00:41:13This look is very loudly Discord.
00:41:15And it's another look that was made from the minds of the House of Atoms.
00:41:24Michelle, can you handlebar this?
00:41:26I can.
00:41:27She's a motocross dresser.
00:41:31Jane, don't.
00:41:32Jane was born with a silver spoon on her head.
00:41:37My look is a gorgeous, Erte-inspired showgirl costume.
00:41:43So I wanted to give something that had that kind of art deco, 1910s, 1920s vibe.
00:41:50I have 20 pounds of sequined fringe hanging off both of my arms.
00:41:55I should have done reps before I wore this costume.
00:41:57But I'm keeping those arms extended.
00:42:00I love this look.
00:42:01Jane, can you go stage right? There's some dust over there.
00:42:05You got it. Thank you. Great work.
00:42:07Yes, sweep me up before you go-go.
00:42:11Juicy love Dion.
00:42:12Don't you hate folding a fitted sheet?
00:42:14This is obviously a queen-size fitted sheet.
00:42:18Mama, I'm serving drama on the runway.
00:42:21Supermodel that got stuck in the strings of a parachute.
00:42:24And that's what I'm giving with this Linda Evangelista type of hair.
00:42:28I know that that parachute is getting some life behind me and continues to move even when I stop.
00:42:34I feel like I'm shooting for Vogue right now.
00:42:36I think I'm eating this.
00:42:38Juicy, you ate that.
00:42:39Someone finally invented something to catch your farts in.
00:42:45Darlene Mitchell.
00:42:47Reporting from the hurricane zone.
00:42:48Forecast calls for a 69% chance that she's a whore.
00:42:54Is a storm coming?
00:42:56I sure hope not because this fabric umbrella covered in feathers ain't gonna do shit.
00:43:00I'm just your everyday girl trying to hold this pose fiercely.
00:43:04But this wind just won't let up, girl.
00:43:07And I am giving supermodel couture down.
00:43:11But it wouldn't be me if it wasn't tacky as heck.
00:43:15Well, they said there was a cold front moving in.
00:43:17Hey, you remember Mary Poppins?
00:43:18Yeah.
00:43:19Well, this is Mary Poopins.
00:43:20Ooh.
00:43:22Up next, Kenya Pleaser.
00:43:24Kenya Pleaser?
00:43:26More like Kenya Breezer.
00:43:28I am gone with the wind, fabulous baby.
00:43:32And I'm giving you black afro fairy down, honey.
00:43:35I have on my fairy wings in this gorgeous iridescent lavender color.
00:43:41I want little girls to see this and be like, mama, look at that little black fairy.
00:43:44I want to be her when I grow up.
00:43:45It is cutesy, it's body positive, and honey, most importantly, it's black.
00:43:50When Tinker Bell is looking good as hell.
00:43:53Mikey Meeks.
00:43:55Neely O'Hara, live at the Flamingo Vegas.
00:43:59Apparently she's the Gust of Honor.
00:44:01Oh, okay.
00:44:02I am covering the stage in 20 yards of orange chiffon, so you cannot miss me.
00:44:09The fan is blowing, my hair is up.
00:44:11I feel so beautiful in this moment.
00:44:14I wanted to pay tribute to the divas who raised me, who would perform with a spotlight, a fan, and
00:44:20some flowing fabric.
00:44:21And that is the act I'm giving.
00:44:24What an airhead.
00:44:26Oh, she just got her second win.
00:44:30NeNe Coco.
00:44:32This is a very earnest performance.
00:44:35I am a widow in mourning.
00:44:38I am headed to the seaside to scatter the ashes of my loved one.
00:44:42Oh no, my tissue.
00:44:44It's camp.
00:44:45It's sad.
00:44:45It's funny.
00:44:47I created this look, monochromatic black from head to toe, fit for a funeral, but the skirt is riding up
00:44:53a little bit high.
00:44:55Maybe she'll find her next man at the beach.
00:44:57What you gonna do with all that ash?
00:45:02Welcome, queens.
00:45:04It's time for the judges' critiques.
00:45:07First up, Discord Adams.
00:45:09This look tonight, I wouldn't really call it blowing in the wind in any way.
00:45:13There's a little bit.
00:45:14I think it's kind of stiff up here.
00:45:16However, you have a great sense of style.
00:45:18You're always edgy.
00:45:19Tonight you look like Suzanne Barsh.
00:45:21Oh, thank you.
00:45:22Opening the toast is a really tough position because you've got to set the tone.
00:45:27There was a little bit of a stumble.
00:45:28Your drink spilled.
00:45:30Uh-oh.
00:45:30And I don't know that you ever got back in front of it.
00:45:33Someone once told me in live TV to embrace the mistakes.
00:45:37So it would have been more fun if you just kept saying like,
00:45:39well, when is someone gonna refill my drink?
00:45:41But we've got to be stronger than any mistake that is thrown in our way.
00:45:44I loved the runs you did with Alyssa, the honor, the come on her, right?
00:45:49Very funny.
00:45:50Could it have been funnier?
00:45:51Yeah, it definitely could have been funnier.
00:45:53Up next, Jane Don't.
00:45:56This look is so beautiful.
00:45:57And his hat, it's just the right amount of long to make it great.
00:46:02A shape we don't usually see on our heads, right?
00:46:04Uh, excuse me.
00:46:05Is that not just four times my hair?
00:46:07Awkward.
00:46:08I'm so sorry.
00:46:09What am I, chopped liver?
00:46:11In the toast, you looked so glamorous in that red crystal gown.
00:46:16It was very Marilyn.
00:46:17I just loved it.
00:46:18And it is hard to be so beautiful and then go and be funny.
00:46:22I live that every day of my life.
00:46:24Mm-hmm.
00:46:25You do a very good job with the whole complimenting and then the dick.
00:46:29But I don't wanna bring up your teeth.
00:46:30You're so smart and naturally such a comedy queen.
00:46:34Just wonderful.
00:46:34This is what you do.
00:46:35And there was no doubt that you would deliver.
00:46:38Wonderful night for you.
00:46:40Up next, juicy love Dion.
00:46:42I love this outfit.
00:46:44Not only is it beautiful, but it allowed for a real moment on the runway with the fan.
00:46:50But the toast was a challenge for you.
00:46:53Wow.
00:46:54What you were lacking was the confidence.
00:46:57Your jokes were almost too nice.
00:47:00I needed you to take it a lot further.
00:47:03And if you weren't gonna take it further, then you needed to take the character further.
00:47:07Being a character is hard.
00:47:08It's about showing it instead of just saying it.
00:47:12You haven't quite found your voice yet, your point of view.
00:47:15And that's what was missing tonight.
00:47:17Up next, Darlene Mitchell.
00:47:21You gave us more than just a look on a runway.
00:47:23You gave us comedy.
00:47:25That makes it so much fun.
00:47:27In the toast, you swung so far.
00:47:30It wasn't about the punchline.
00:47:33It was about, what is she gonna do next?
00:47:35And then halfway through, you're like doing this weird Kristen Wiig thing where he's just like, eeeeee.
00:47:41And then you topped it off at the end with those hideous shoes.
00:47:47Whatever you do, do not throw away those shoes.
00:47:51You just let loose.
00:47:53That's what you wanna see.
00:47:55You will work for the rest of your life doing that act.
00:48:00Great night for you, Darlene.
00:48:03Up next, the widow Coco.
00:48:05This is so beautiful.
00:48:07Like, I wanna go to this funeral.
00:48:08And you had a moment throwing the ashes in the air.
00:48:11That's another clever way to think what I'm gonna do when there's a big fan pointed at me.
00:48:15At one point, your skirt hiked up a little bit and we could see the garters there, which are the
00:48:20moment of this whole outfit.
00:48:22Yeah.
00:48:24In the toast.
00:48:26Yeah.
00:48:27Celebrity.
00:48:28I understood what the kids were saying when they said that it could come across as mean.
00:48:34I think you're your biggest doubter because of this.
00:48:36Yeah.
00:48:37You need to find a way to put a little lube on it before you just stick it right in.
00:48:43Okay.
00:48:44Clocking the moments of when you are getting laughs is really important to finding the voice in comedy.
00:48:49There were really great jokes that were social commentary.
00:48:52We have the same shade of foundation.
00:48:55White privilege.
00:48:56Just about leaning into that.
00:48:58Kenya Pleaser.
00:48:59I love the color of this outfit.
00:49:01It's not as dramatic as some of the other looks when the wind machine is on.
00:49:05But the color perfection.
00:49:08Okay.
00:49:08Talk about the toast.
00:49:09The jam don't shake, girl.
00:49:11There's a quality in your voice.
00:49:12You command the stage.
00:49:14The problem was you didn't really have the jokes.
00:49:17There were some, Kenya, but we needed more laughs.
00:49:22You've gotten by with just how charismatic you are.
00:49:26You've already got everything it takes.
00:49:29You've already got everything it takes.
00:49:31You have already got everything it takes.
00:49:35But you need to invest in Kenya.
00:49:38You need to have a conversation with that little kid inside of you and understand you are a natural star.
00:49:46Coming from where I come from, I struggle with that on a daily basis.
00:49:51That little boy is just crying every day to be, I'm beautiful, I'm wanted.
00:49:58And for me to be on this stage is such a blessing and an honor.
00:50:03And I don't want to take it for granted at all.
00:50:07Tonight, hopefully, this is a big lesson for you.
00:50:10A big lesson for you.
00:50:14All right, up in my favorite color, Mikey Meeks.
00:50:18So you put yourself last.
00:50:20That is a big, big seat to fill.
00:50:23And I thought you did a great job.
00:50:26You've got a real skill for understanding a setup and a punchline.
00:50:31Terrible.
00:50:32You were also doing a character that was very funny.
00:50:35Every time you would, she means it, right?
00:50:36You were doing that too.
00:50:38It's a silliness in you that really comes out.
00:50:41It's really funny.
00:50:43You're another one.
00:50:44You've got a career in comedy.
00:50:46And this outfit is gorgeous.
00:50:49Whatever you thought we were going to see, when that fan hit that outfit, double it by 10.
00:50:55Is that math?
00:50:56I don't know.
00:50:57I don't know.
00:50:57Incorrect, but we'll go with that.
00:50:58Yeah.
00:50:59Carry the one.
00:51:00Okay.
00:51:01It was Lana Turner in The Prodigal Son.
00:51:04Absolutely gorgeous.
00:51:05Very, very good night for you.
00:51:08Thank you, Queens.
00:51:09I think we've heard enough.
00:51:10While you untuck backstage, the judges and I will deliberate.
00:51:16All right, now, just between us girlfriends, what do you think?
00:51:19Starting with Discord Adams.
00:51:21She was extremely confident.
00:51:23She just got thrown off her game.
00:51:25She did have jokes.
00:51:26She just didn't sell them.
00:51:27Just didn't super stand out as some of the other girls.
00:51:31All right, Jane Don't.
00:51:32Jane Don't we knew was going to be good and she absolutely delivered it.
00:51:37She's so good on stage.
00:51:38That skill, you have it or you don't, Jane has it.
00:51:42All right, Juicy.
00:51:43For comedy, yeah, I think she still has a way to go with finding her perspective.
00:51:49Watching Juicy try her best in the toast tonight reminded me of that one time I took a hip-hop
00:51:56dance class.
00:52:02Darlene Mitchell.
00:52:02So this was the surprise of the night.
00:52:04She was whack-a-doodle.
00:52:06It was hilarious.
00:52:07We witnessed in real time her understanding how she does this.
00:52:14Yeah.
00:52:14It was brilliant.
00:52:16I appreciate a banana.
00:52:17Banana.
00:52:19NeNe Coco.
00:52:20She had some funny jokes in there, but a lot of the stuff came across as mean.
00:52:23Who does your hair?
00:52:24And it's the delivery.
00:52:25Because the jokes were not any worse off than anybody else.
00:52:28I do think this will be a pivotal night for her in understanding how to move forward.
00:52:33There are ways she could have softened the blow.
00:52:36You just described Michelle, by the way.
00:52:37I know I did.
00:52:39All right, Kenya, please her.
00:52:40Oh, Kenya has so much presence on that stage.
00:52:43You want to talk about charisma?
00:52:45What she didn't have was funny jokes.
00:52:47But a lot of times people don't have the personality, so at least there's that, right?
00:52:52She has that.
00:52:53Mikey Meeks.
00:52:54She's got it all.
00:52:55Confidence.
00:52:56Looks.
00:52:57Capability.
00:52:58All of it.
00:52:59She blew it out of the water.
00:53:01She was so funny.
00:53:02Tonight was a great night for Mikey Meeks.
00:53:05Yeah.
00:53:06I have three words.
00:53:07She crushed it.
00:53:09Silence.
00:53:10I have made my decision.
00:53:13Bring back my girls.
00:53:15Welcome back, queens.
00:53:17I've made some decisions.
00:53:23Jane, don't.
00:53:25Darlene Mitchell.
00:53:27Mikey Meeks.
00:53:29Your toast and your runways blew us away.
00:53:33But one of you really popped our corks.
00:53:40Darlene Mitchell.
00:53:43Condragulations.
00:53:44You're the winner of this week's challenge.
00:53:46Thanks, Darlene.
00:53:48Oh, my God.
00:53:50You've won a cash tip of $5,000.
00:53:54I just won the roast.
00:54:00Banana!
00:54:04Jane, Mikey, you three may step to the back of the stage.
00:54:31I'm sorry, my dear, but you are up for elimination.
00:54:37I'm sorry.
00:54:38I'm sorry.
00:54:39I'm sorry.
00:54:39In the bottom two again.
00:54:43Discord.
00:54:44You're safe.
00:54:49Juicy Love Dion.
00:54:51On the runway, you had the material.
00:54:55And the toast, not so much.
00:54:58Nene Coco, on the runway, you were to die for, but your toast didn't kill.
00:55:10Nene Coco, you are safe.
00:55:16Fuck.
00:55:18Oh, I love both of these queens so much.
00:55:21You may join the other girls.
00:55:25Juicy, I'm sorry, my dear, but you are up for elimination.
00:55:30You know, me and Kenya are kind of in the same spot right now.
00:55:33This is our third time, like, lip-syncing each.
00:55:35But if I have to lip-sync against every single one of you to make it to the end, I
00:55:41sure will.
00:55:42Two queens stand before me.
00:55:44Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me and save yourself from elimination.
00:55:55The time has come for you to lip-sync for your life.
00:56:09No matter how good she is, I refuse to not go out with a motherfucking fight, girl.
00:56:16Good luck, and don't fuck it up.
00:56:28Turn around.
00:56:30Every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming around.
00:56:36Turn around.
00:56:38Every now and then I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears.
00:56:43Turn around.
00:56:45Turn around.
00:56:46Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by.
00:56:51Turn around.
00:56:53Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes.
00:56:59Turn around, bright eyes.
00:57:02Turn around.
00:57:03Every now and then I pull a floor and I need you all tonight.
00:57:08And I need you all forever.
00:57:12And if you hold me, hold me tight.
00:57:15Oh, my God.
00:57:16We'll be holding on forever.
00:57:19And we'll only be making it right.
00:57:23Cause we'll never be wrong.
00:57:25Together we can take it to the end of the life.
00:57:29Love is like a shadow on me all of the time.
00:57:32All of the time.
00:57:34I don't know what to do.
00:57:35I'm always in the dark.
00:57:37Living in a party can't give up.
00:57:42Yeah, she'll try.
00:57:43Oh, my God.
00:57:46Oh, my God.
00:57:48Oh, my God.
00:57:49Oh, my God.
00:57:51Oh, my God.
00:57:52Oh, my God.
00:57:53Let's go.
00:57:54Let's go.
00:57:55Now I'm only falling apart.
00:58:01Nothing I can do to an eclipse of the heart.
00:58:10Turn around, baby, let's turn around.
00:58:27Queens, I've made my decision.
00:58:36Juicy love, Dion, shantay you stay.
00:58:41You may join the other girls.
00:58:50Can you please her?
00:58:52The answer is yes, you can.
00:58:57Now, sashay away.
00:59:00Rue, from the bottom of my heart,
00:59:02I want to say thank you for allowing me to show
00:59:06this little black gay boy from South Carolina
00:59:10that he is beautiful, that he is loved.
00:59:14Thank you for allowing me to be that representation.
00:59:27The question still stands, RuPaul.
00:59:30Can you please her?
00:59:36Girl, child.
00:59:40I'm jumbled up in emotions.
00:59:41I don't know how to feel,
00:59:42because I thought I was going to slay this challenge.
00:59:43So I am shocked at that way.
00:59:46To all the little boys out there that I know
00:59:48is going to be watching this scared in their room, bitch,
00:59:51under the cover, trying to have that previous channel button
00:59:53on lock.
00:59:54You are fabulous.
00:59:55You are enough.
00:59:57And you can become whatever you want to.
00:59:59Chase your dreams.
01:00:00Because I chased mine.
01:00:02Bitch, I made it to Hollywood.
01:00:03It is not over.
01:00:04Honey, this is just the first taste.
01:00:06I love y'all.
01:00:08At least I'm going out cute, bitch.
01:00:12Tindragulations, queens.
01:00:13And remember, if you can't love yourself,
01:00:15how in the hell you going to love somebody else?
01:00:17Can I get an amen up in here?
01:00:19Yeah!
01:00:20Alright, now let the music play.
01:00:34Next time on RuPaul's Drag Race, you need to turn these dashing desperados into dazzling
01:00:41dolls.
01:00:42Damn!
01:00:43These are men!
01:00:44Oh!
01:00:45Lord Jesus.
01:00:46Girl, this ain't gonna work.
01:00:49I know that I can bring this together.
01:00:50You just wait until we get to the main stage.
01:00:56Literally when you walked out, I said, what episode of Parent Trap is this?
01:01:00It just didn't make any fucking sense and I hate it.
01:01:20Give yourself permission to take the script and flip it.
01:01:24Give yourself permission to take the script and flip it.
01:01:28Cause if you're not like other bitches, I should be something different.
01:01:32Bye.
01:01:33Bye.
01:01:33Bye.
