00:06Top 4 again!
00:08Yee-hoo!
00:10Deja vu.
00:11Carmen left the competition.
00:12I love Carmen, but darling, at this point, is you or me?
00:17Oh, there's the message.
00:19Goodbye again.
00:21Best of luck to everyone.
00:23Turn it out and don't be a sprepper.
00:25Don't be a sprepper.
00:25Sprepper is a combination of Sprite and Dr. Pepper.
00:28It's sweet, but it's not.
00:29It's not delicious.
00:30Raya, it's your turn.
00:32I've never done this before. You guys have all done this before.
00:34Oh, BGB, girl.
00:37Bye, girl, bye.
00:39See you later, Carmen.
00:40I'll give you a call.
00:42I lost my cherry to being the bottom two.
00:44Finally, people.
00:46Did you cry?
00:48I did a little bit, and I thought I was gonna go home
00:50because of some guy that I'd only known for two days.
00:52It was pretty close. It was almost me.
00:54My only game plan at this point is just to kick everyone's asses,
00:56and I'm so close.
01:01Ooh, girl, you got she mail.
01:04Hey, big spenders.
01:06Hey.
01:06I own everything.
01:08Or at least I act like I do.
01:11You gotta fake it till you make it, honey.
01:13Yes, ma'am.
01:14Get that coin, girl.
01:15Mm-hmm.
01:15Because if you don't, there ain't nothing going on but the rent.
01:19What?
01:20What?
01:21Prostitution.
01:23Hello, hello, hello, my ladies.
01:26Woo!
01:27You know, most drag performers make their money in tips.
01:30But to be America's next drag superstar, you need to make your moolah selling it to the masses.
01:35Now for today's mini challenge, you'll become host for the newest, hottest home shopping channel.
01:42Ruby C.
01:43Oh, really?
01:44Now you'll each have three minutes to pitch one product, an item you choose from your own drag.
01:50And the one queen who convinces me to order her product will win.
01:56You've got 20 minutes to put together a quick drag spokes queen look.
02:02And I'll see you on Ruby C.
02:05All right.
02:06Oh, my God.
02:07Ah!
02:10Everybody in the room, including me, look a mess.
02:15Raja looks like Rainbow Bride.
02:17Manella actually was pretty with less makeup.
02:20And Jada, I don't even have a clue.
02:25The first thing I thought of was, you know, my Tucker, it's fresh out of my own drag.
02:28It's something that I rely on most often.
02:30And why not sell it?
02:32I don't know if I look good in brown hair, but what are you wearing?
02:48Welcome to Ruby C.
02:49I want to tell you about a product today that has aromatherapeutic powers, healing powers.
02:54It can feminize you.
02:55It could increase your libido.
02:58Be right back.
03:00My Gaff.
03:03You take this part that would normally cover your genitals, and you stretch it over your face, and it has
03:08invigorating powers that immediately wakes you up.
03:10That's $6,934, 60 clams from a tribe in Africa, and four goats.
03:16And you, too, can own this.
03:18Raja's Gaff.
03:19Start ordering, everyone.
03:23Hi.
03:24My name is Manilla Luzon.
03:26You may have seen me on such shows as RuPaul's Drag Race or Cops.
03:30I'm here to tell you about this new product, Manilla.
03:33You can use it for hair, tabletop cleaner, makeup finisher, when you get these, like, horrible runs in your nylons.
03:42If you call right now, we'll send you this free travel cap that goes on top.
03:48Goodbye.
03:49Hi, America.
03:51I'm Yara Sofia.
03:52It's kind of hard to find the perfect hair.
03:54And you can wear a perfect puppeton.
03:58See how gorgeous it is?
04:00You can wear it like this, and you can put it like this.
04:03You can scrub yourself, your body.
04:07You know, we are drag queens.
04:08You can use the puppeton to clean your table.
04:12Only 100 payments of $1.
04:15You have to buy the puppeton.
04:17Now.
04:18Bye.
04:20My name is Alexis Mateo, and I have a secret that I want to share with you.
04:24The head pass.
04:26If you have always wanted the perfect body, but you cannot have it, I got the magic solution for you.
04:32They are handmade and hand painted just by me for only two paintings on $19.95.
04:37But wait.
04:38If you call right now in the last 10 seconds, I'm going to give you handmade pass for your ass.
04:44Alexis.
04:45The booty.
04:46The pat.
04:47Everything that you need to be a complete drag queen for only two paintings on $19.95.
04:52This is Alexis Mateo for Rue BC.
04:56Hi.
04:57Hi.
04:58Wow.
04:58Oh.
04:59What do we have here?
05:01Let's see what I ordered.
05:03This is always so exciting.
05:05Open it.
05:06Open it.
05:07Open it.
05:07Open it.
05:07Open it.
05:10Open it.
05:12It's a puppeton.
05:14It's a puppeton.
05:14It's a puppeton.
05:16It's a puppeton.
05:17The puppeton.
05:18Ah, it's a puppeton.
05:20Finally I win the mini challenge.
05:22Jara, your prize for winning the mini challenge is...
05:27One million dollars.
05:30What?
05:31Yay!
05:33Ooh!
05:34Well, actually darling, it's one million Rue dollars.
05:39Ooh.
05:39Yes.
05:41What happened?
05:41I win.
05:42Now the pit crew is up all night cooking up this dough at Cat Print.
05:47While these may not pay your bills, they could come in handy a little later.
05:51Because it is time for the most expensive challenge in Rue Paul's Drag Race Herstory.
05:58This week we are throwing a Make That Money Ball.
06:01And each of you will have to come up with a portfolio of three different looks that you could take
06:06to the bank, honey.
06:10First category, swimsuit body beautiful.
06:14You need to create a bathing suit hot enough to attract a billionaire.
06:20Second category, cocktail attire after five.
06:24You need to create a flirty short dress where all that glitters is gold.
06:29Third category, evening gown eleganza.
06:33Wow.
06:34Using two and a half million Rue paper dollars, you need to create a dress that literally screams money.
06:45Jara, because you won the mini challenge, you have an extra million dollars to play with.
06:52Gentlemen, start your engines and may the best woman win.
07:00We have three challenges in a row that have multiple looks for the runway.
07:04Like, are you exhausted? Because I'm exhausted.
07:06I feel like a glamorous sweatshop worker, if you will.
07:09That's just because you're Asian.
07:11Have you ever made a swimsuit before?
07:13No, I have. I've never made one.
07:15What are you going to do for a swimsuit?
07:17Like, all I hear from the judges all the time is that my body is not right.
07:22That my walk is not right. That my hair is not right.
07:25I cannot please all the judges, but that doesn't define who I am.
07:30I mean, it's nothing wrong with my body at all.
07:33Probably something wrong with Michelle's and Santino's body, but it's nothing wrong with my body.
07:38I'm just the girl that wears the pads and the titties in the show.
07:42Alexis, that's just her insecurity coming in, and it's all in her head, I think.
07:46But they're not, like, sleeping on you, Alexis.
07:48Like, they love you. You have a great personality, and...
07:50It's just bullshit. I don't know.
07:53It doesn't make any sense to me.
07:55Why are you saying that the judges are against you?
07:58You have winning three challenges, girl.
08:00Not because of that I'm gonna get out like that.
08:10Fuck, Lugong.
08:11Did you burn yourself?
08:12Fuck. Fuck.
08:13Ah!
08:15Today's main challenge is to make three distinct money looks.
08:18A swimsuit, a cocktail dress, and an evening gown.
08:21For Rue's make-that-money ball.
08:25Where's all the fucking Lugong?
08:27We're stressed out because it's gonna be a long day, honey.
08:31Some craziness.
08:32I know it's a lot of people that think that I'm gonna do wrong in this challenge.
08:36I don't have a clue that how this is gonna turn out.
08:40I have never worked with this kind of material,
08:42and every time I try hard, I get shit.
08:48Girl!
08:49Oh, maybe you wanna start over.
08:51Um, I hate it.
08:52I think we're all in a great panic at this point.
08:55There's very, very little time, and I can feel the stress in the room.
08:58Ugh, I hate starting over.
09:00I can't stand this anymore.
09:07Hello, hello, hello!
09:09Hi, Rue.
09:10Are you ready for the make-that-money ball?
09:13Yes.
09:14Not yet.
09:15Hi, Alexis.
09:16Hi, Rue.
09:17Does this challenge frighten you at all?
09:19Yeah, I am worried about it.
09:20Like, it's so difficult.
09:22I'm not a pro.
09:23I'm not a designer.
09:24Okay, all right.
09:25So, are you gonna do a whole gold storyline here?
09:28You know what, Rue?
09:28I had no clue what I wanted to show on the stage.
09:32I'm talking to Rue, and it was not going well.
09:35That scares me a lot.
09:37Who's your biggest competition?
09:39It is Jada.
09:40Jada have everything that I love in a drag queen.
09:43Her mind is very high fashion, and her personality is so, so big.
09:47Plus, she's Puerto Rican.
09:49Uh-huh.
09:49So, if I don't win this competition, another Puerto Rican should be proud.
09:54All right, get back to work.
09:55Thank you, Rue.
09:56All right.
09:58Jada Sofia.
09:59Hi.
10:00Tell me about money.
10:01Are you free spending, or are you very frugal?
10:03I'm very free spending.
10:05I'm broke, but I stay fabulous.
10:09If you win the $75,000, are you just gonna spend it?
10:13I'm gonna move, probably, to the States.
10:17Puerto Rico, it's hard to find a job.
10:19It's hard to find a job here, too.
10:20Yes, I know, but in Puerto Rico, it's more hard.
10:24Do you make a living making dresses?
10:26Yes.
10:26My inspiration is Bob Mackie.
10:28You could be the next Bob Mackie.
10:29We need another Bob Mackie.
10:30We need more wearable art.
10:32Mm-hmm.
10:32I want to raise the American dream.
10:34I want to make my own line of clothes.
10:37And that's why I'm here, because I love drag.
10:40I love to make dresses.
10:41This is my life.
10:46Ooh, look how delicious.
10:49All this money.
10:50You've been in the competition for a long time.
10:53Are you surprised that you've lasted so long?
10:56Well, no.
10:57I knew that, like, I was gonna be in for the long haul.
11:00Yeah.
11:00I just didn't know you're gonna bring all these girls
11:01and have all these extra challenges.
11:03So, it's safe to say you didn't come to the competition
11:05to make friends, you came to win?
11:07Well, both.
11:08I love meeting new people, so I'm gonna make a lot of friends,
11:11but if I have to stab them in the back, I mean, whatever.
11:17Well, hello, Raja.
11:18Hi, sexy lady.
11:19What are you working on now?
11:20Well, I'm basically making an armature
11:22for a top hat made out of coins and cash.
11:25Wow.
11:26Do you have enough time to do something like that?
11:28I think so.
11:30All right.
11:30Now, tell me something about this swimsuit.
11:33I want to show my skinny body and do just a bikini.
11:36How do you stay so skinny?
11:37I work out, I do Pilates and yoga,
11:39and with my $75,000 that I win,
11:41I'll finally get my gastric bypass.
11:45All right, ladies, gather round.
11:48All right, there's one more thing
11:49that will make this week's main challenge even richer.
11:54Ah, no.
11:56I want you to choreograph a group number
11:59that will kick off the Make That Money ball.
12:03On top of all this, oh, my God, I'm gonna die.
12:07Now, Jarrah, since you won the mini challenge,
12:11you're in charge.
12:12Oh, and you'll be shaking your money makers
12:15to the song, Just Wanna Dance by Miss Latoya Jackson.
12:20Because tomorrow on the main stage,
12:22back again at my personal request,
12:26we'll be joined by Miss Latoya herself.
12:28Yes?
12:30And our extra special guest judge will be
12:32the New York Times best-selling author,
12:34Gigi Lavonji Grazier.
12:37Come on.
12:38All right, ladies, time is money,
12:41so get to work.
12:42And remember, don't fuck it up.
12:48Oh, my God.
12:50You have to measure your size.
12:52And you have to make the mannequin for you
12:55because it will take your shape.
12:59Alexis, is your fit gonna be immaculate?
13:01You know what?
13:02I'm looking like the way I want it to look.
13:04If they like it, they like it.
13:06If they don't like it, all well.
13:12I'm completely freaking out right now.
13:14I was feeling stressed out,
13:16and I cannot do the challenge,
13:17and it's horrible.
13:18It gets to a point when you cannot control
13:20your feelings anymore.
13:22I just want this to be over.
13:26I just want to go home.
13:27One more time.
13:34When I see Alexis parking,
13:36I'm like,
13:36what the fuck are you doing?
13:38What are you doing, Alex?
13:39What are you doing, Alex?
13:39What's happening?
13:40I want to go home.
13:42Why?
13:42I want to go home.
13:43Yes, because you're stupid.
13:44If you were doing well.
13:46I know, but I don't want to be here.
13:49Bullshit.
13:50Do you know what I'm saying?
13:51But think about things?
14:00I am tired, I'm exhausted, and to see Alexis Paki makes me feel angry.
14:06What's going on with Alexis?
14:08She's trying to give up.
14:10I don't know.
14:11She's over it?
14:12She's trying to leave the competition.
14:20I'm helping.
14:31Alexis gave up and left this competition.
14:33It's a very, very dark moment.
14:36I don't know.
14:37Where is she?
14:37Where is she?
14:38I don't know.
14:39I have had, like, meltdowns and freakouts, and I'm trying to hold myself together because
14:44at any moment, it could happen.
14:46Like, the pressure is so intense right now.
14:49She told me, like, she gained weight, and sometimes it's so hard to make clothes for
14:53her.
14:54We have no time.
14:55No time.
14:55We have to do three outfits.
14:57It's frustrating for me because I don't want to be uncomfortable.
15:01Anyway, well, I guess I'm going to start putting shit on my dress.
15:11I decided to, like, whip out Sahara's picture because it's like seeing my boyfriend is, like,
15:16a really great reminder of, like, why I'm here.
15:20Girl, what's going on with that picture?
15:22Oh, it's Sahara Davenport.
15:24The most beautiful drag queen after RuPaul.
15:26Do you miss her?
15:28Fuck yeah, I miss the bitch.
15:30Cute.
15:31You know, I think I've tried sewing a dress before, like, with a slit in the side, and
15:35it didn't work out.
15:36So I don't know why I'm trying this again.
15:39Bitch man, this is not the tea.
15:47Oh, stress, stress, stress.
16:01Oi!
16:04You're scaring me.
16:06You're a soccer bitch.
16:07I was just, I don't know.
16:09I decided to stay in this competition all the way to the end.
16:12But I'm here, bitches.
16:13I am here.
16:14I didn't came here to just give up in the top four.
16:18I came here to be America's next drag superstar.
16:23Driver, girl.
16:25So, girls, let's get done.
16:30Come on.
16:31It's time to go to rehearsal.
16:33Just because RuPaul put you in charge.
16:35So listen, Dara.
16:35Welcome back.
16:36I decided to split the choreography between Alexis and me because we have a great connection
16:42and Alexis is a good dancer.
16:45Here we go.
16:48Woo!
16:49They're going!
16:50Get your coins, girls.
16:52Let's begin.
16:54What are we going to do?
16:55Manila seems a little bit terrified, but so am I, so we're in this together.
16:59First step.
17:00Step with the right.
17:02Shoulder.
17:03Out.
17:04Boom.
17:05Boom.
17:05Five, six, seven.
17:07And we do this in line.
17:09And we get out of the line.
17:11We go back in line.
17:12And we're going to repeat that again.
17:14Perfect.
17:15Woo!
17:16Okay.
17:17Good job, darling.
17:18As I told you, as I told you, she's good.
17:20Here we go.
17:21And step.
17:22Boom.
17:24Again, we got it.
17:25We got it.
17:25I lost.
17:26I'm so lost.
17:29Oh, what happened?
17:30Fuck.
17:30Oh, wait.
17:31What am I doing?
17:31I'm lost.
17:31Wait a minute.
17:33Come on.
17:34Wait, sorry.
17:35What am I doing?
17:36Am I following you?
17:37I'm doing the opposite of you now, right?
17:38Oh, I'm still doing that?
17:40I haven't done a choreographed routine in such a long time.
17:43I'm terrified.
17:44It's easy.
17:45Once I get this, you guys better watch out.
17:47Okay?
17:48Oh, girl, you're going to have to catch up because it's not that difficult to understand.
17:51So get it together, bitch.
17:53Hands up.
17:54Then we're going to the left, to the right, and go all the way to your ass.
17:59Shake it in my ass, and just shake your ass.
18:02Yay!
18:02Wait, I don't do that.
18:03Manila, Manila, just shake your bag.
18:07Yeah, we just shake the ass.
18:08How do you, how are you doing that?
18:09Moving, I'm moving.
18:10I don't know how to do this.
18:12The cha-cha is inside of it.
18:16Hey, I want to do this.
18:17Okay.
18:17It's like...
18:20We're supposed to be touching each other's back.
18:22Oh, hey, girls.
18:23Five, six, seven, eight.
18:25Boom.
18:26Don't leave the back.
18:27Don't leave the back.
18:28No, no, no, no.
18:29What are you doing, Manila?
18:31Can we do this?
18:32Well, can we just not put it in front of our faces?
18:34Because I don't want to block this mug.
18:35Hey, hey, watch out.
18:36I'm not really a dancer, and so picking up choreography is, like, not the easiest thing for me to do.
18:41We're down to the final four.
18:42I don't want to fuck this up.
18:44Awesome, guys.
18:45Go team.
18:46It's going to be a mess.
18:55Money, money!
18:59Oh, my God.
19:00I feel like I should have just had a bed here.
19:02I know.
19:03Like, what was the point of even going back home?
19:05We haven't sleep or nothing.
19:07There's a lot of pressure.
19:08It's really important for me to do a great job on this challenge because it's one of our last challenges.
19:12And if I don't do a good job, I'm going to be in the bottom, too.
19:15I'm going to do it again.
19:17All right.
19:18Do you guys, would you ever use every single glue stick there is?
19:21Yes.
19:22Yes, we did.
19:22See?
19:24Did I use the extra million dollars?
19:26Yes.
19:26Everything?
19:27Except for this one.
19:28Wow.
19:29Because I wanted the big one.
19:30It's a lot of dress honey.
19:32Jara's is way too complicated.
19:34And I understand avant-garde, but it's just really crazy.
19:36If she were to sit down in it, it would look like a pile of garbage.
19:39Jara, it's like a tropical garden.
19:41It's really huge.
19:42I don't care if the other girls don't like it.
19:45I'm focused on my stuff.
19:47Purple's going to love it.
19:50Who's top three?
19:51I would like it to be me, Jara, and Alexis.
19:54Manila, you think it's going to be easier for you to win the competition if Raja's gone?
19:58If all goes correctly, then I should be in the top three.
20:00If you don't make the top three, the decision is incorrect?
20:03Sure.
20:03I put so much energy into this competition from day one, and I feel like I've really worked
20:08my hands to the bone, and I need to be in the top three.
20:12It's just so close.
20:13The top three are going to be me, Raja, and Jara.
20:17Never, never, never in a million years.
20:19Where's Manila going?
20:21Home.
20:22After tonight.
20:23Okay.
20:23I deserve it.
20:24I want Alexis in the top three.
20:27And the other one, I don't know.
20:28Since Manila and I had a pretty close relationship throughout this competition, I would like to see
20:32her there.
20:33I deserve it, motherfuckers.
20:35I'm going to make the top three because I work very hard for this, and I'm going to
20:40let them have it.
20:55And what?
20:57Hey, guys.
20:58Welcome to the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race.
21:02Hey, Michelle, you like?
21:03I love.
21:05Mike Ruiz.
21:06You look like a million dollars.
21:08Oh, so do you.
21:09Well, you know, as Dolly says, it takes a lot of money to look this cheap.
21:14Gigi Lavangie Grazier.
21:15How does a Hollywood wife make her money?
21:18Well, we earn it the old-fashioned way, RuPaul, through divorce.
21:23L.A. Toya, you're back by my request.
21:26And I will do anything for you, Ru.
21:27You know that.
21:28Oh, honey, that's big money, LaToya, if you ask me.
21:33This week, our queens were challenged to create $3 million looks for the Make That Money
21:39Ball.
21:40To kick things off, they're going to make it rain to LaToya Jackson's Just Want to Dance.
21:46Gentlemen, start your engines, and may the best woman win.
21:51Category is swimsuit, body beautiful.
21:55And they will be performing to LaToya's song, Just Want to Dance.
22:03I'm getting dressed, dressed, to look my best tonight.
22:06It's Friday night, and I can't wait to party.
22:09Dance on the floor, rip and hit the guys, staring at me.
22:13But the women hate me, cause they wanna be me.
22:16Shaking my ears, with lots of plastic ties.
22:19But they don't know if I'm a heat or a sheet.
22:22Watching all my moves, breaking all the roofs.
22:25Seeing if I can get the burial or a leg tonight.
22:29I just wanna dance until the morning light.
22:35Let's dance, boys.
22:36Let's dance tonight and keep this party good.
22:40Tonight is over.
22:42All night, all night, all night.
22:45Wow.
22:47Woo!
22:48Amazing.
22:49The Gold Diggers of 2011.
22:52Category is Cocktail Attire After Five.
22:56Zahra Sophia.
22:57She's the Merry Widow, ready for her next husband.
23:00Yes.
23:01Looks like she's getting ready for Liberace's funeral.
23:04Uh-huh.
23:04My cocktail dress is inspired by Nina Ricci, like, very Evita Peron, very sophisticated, very dark.
23:13And I love the gloves on her.
23:14It's very film noir.
23:15The Widow wore gold.
23:17Up next, Alexis Mateo, Goldfinger.
23:21Ooh.
23:22With my cocktail dress, I think about myself.
23:25Alexis is always Chacha, that's what the dress is in.
23:27I'm not gonna change myself for nobody else.
23:29I'm just gonna walk the dress, and I know it's sickening on me.
23:32The Golden Globes.
23:33It's like two canned hams under a blanket fighting it out.
23:36Really?
23:36Yes.
23:37Ooh, I love ham.
23:38Manila.
23:39Hey, girl, hey.
23:39All right.
23:40Alexis Attitude.
23:41This reminds me of a disco.
23:42Well, I don't know about Rue, but I take my disco nap at 5 p.m.
23:45So this is going to be an after 5 a.m. look, yes.
23:47And, honey, I am still partying, and I'm about to go to the after party, honey.
23:50New Year's Eve, 1984.
23:52Oh, my God.
23:5380s in San Fernando Valley.
23:54For the love of money.
23:57Up next, Raja.
23:59Ooh, Raja and the Gold Rush.
24:01The look for my cocktail dress is a little bit heiress, and it's a little eccentric.
24:06I own everything, and I bought it on my American Express gold card.
24:10Gold card, darling.
24:11Category is Million Dollar Evening Gown Eleganza.
24:16Jada Sofia.
24:18She blew her cash wad.
24:19Yes.
24:20It's Marie Antoinette.
24:22Cha-ching.
24:23I'm doing my runway, and I feel like a queen, and it feels so great.
24:27I feel so powerful.
24:28The avant-garde for me is everything.
24:30She's got the credit cards in there, too.
24:32A whole safety deposit box.
24:34Susie Orman called.
24:36She wants her FICO scorecard.
24:39Up next, Alexis Mateo.
24:42Goddess of the sea.
24:43Yes.
24:44Yes, like scales.
24:44Like fish scales.
24:45Yes.
24:46I want it to look like a mermaid.
24:47I want it to look like tropical, flowers, colors.
24:51I want it to look very pageant, as well.
24:54It's like the little mermaid meets little Kim.
24:56Yes, it is.
24:58Mo' money, mo' problems.
25:00You can bet your bottom dollar, and I do mean bottom.
25:03Manila.
25:04They meld a markup.
25:05Yeah, meld a markup.
25:06That's right.
25:07Better than a markdown.
25:08For my evening gown made of money, the judges are really liking my look.
25:11I think my hair is just so big that they have to love it.
25:14I mean, come on.
25:15Who doesn't love a dry coupe with gigantic hair?
25:17She looks like a Texas tycoon's wife.
25:19Yes.
25:20Black gold.
25:21Texas tea.
25:23I think her economy just double dipped.
25:26Up next, Raja.
25:27Wow.
25:28Ow.
25:29Ultimately, I have this idea of this 1930s sort of starlet, and she is going on a train to
25:35the Hearst Castle to meet up with all of her fancy buddies, and I think it looks fantastic.
25:39I think I look like an exotic bird.
25:41She owns the world.
25:42If I had the dollars.
25:44Very Linda Evangelista.
25:45All the honey's making money.
25:51Welcome, ladies.
25:52It's time for the judges' critiques.
25:55Jara, Sophia.
25:56Yeah?
25:57Penny for your thoughts.
25:58This is my inspiration from Alexander McQueen.
26:02Ah.
26:03And the hair is my trademark.
26:05My pop-a-tones.
26:07Your pop-a-tones.
26:08But this time, cover in money.
26:10Jara, you are absolutely gorgeous.
26:13I do think that it's a bit busy.
26:17All the gold necklace and then the gold going into the bustier with the hair and the necklace.
26:22It's almost like that.
26:23The cocktail dress.
26:25Presentation was a little morose, and I would have hoped that you would have been a little
26:27more effervescent, you know, on every level.
26:31Up next, Alexis Mateo.
26:34I love what you've done to this dress.
26:37This is why I know you could have done something much better with the bathing suit than what I saw.
26:43And it's pretty much the same for your cocktail dress.
26:46I think it was just a little too simple for me.
26:49When you came out in the bathing suit, I thought, I'm so glad she got rid of Ike.
26:52Yeah, me too.
26:53That Tina Turner wig was fabulous.
26:56I loved it.
26:56The problem with the swimsuit for me was that it was too abuelita.
27:00It was too grandma.
27:01And because it was cut low, it made you look bulky.
27:05All right.
27:06Up next, Manila.
27:08Hi, judges.
27:09Now, tell us about this dress.
27:10It looks like Beverly Hills shrubbery.
27:12You know, at the end of the night, when you open your drag bag to see all your tips,
27:15they're all crumpled and sweaty.
27:17And so I thought that it would be kind of interesting to, like, tear up money and crumple them
27:21and then glue them on here.
27:23When I look at the pink flower in your hair, it's absolutely gorgeous.
27:27It enhances your color tones.
27:28I did feel and think your hair was a little bit too big.
27:32How dare you?
27:34How darkly!
27:37Well, I loved your swimsuit presentation.
27:40It was very Sancho Pei, French Riviera.
27:43It was very Samantha Jones, you know, goes to the Hamptons.
27:45I loved it.
27:46It all worked.
27:46It was thought out and it was executed beautifully.
27:49The cocktail attire, very mahogany, very Diana Ross.
27:53I want to go to that cocktail party.
27:56All right.
27:57Up next, Raja.
27:58Hi.
27:59When you walk out, you act as if you own the stage.
28:03And I want to focus on you because you give me, you demand that attention from me.
28:09And that's what I love about you.
28:11But your after five to me was so plain.
28:13It was so simple.
28:15It was so ordinary.
28:16The entire outfit, to be quite frank with you, reminded me of a pointer sister.
28:24All right, ladies.
28:26Here's the $75,000 question.
28:30Why do you deserve to be crowned America's next drag superstar?
28:35Let's start with Jara.
28:38I'm so broke.
28:41I don't have anything in my bank.
28:44My credit card is overdrawed.
28:47And I need money to move to the States.
28:49And I would like to live the American dream.
28:52I have charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent.
28:55I have everything.
28:55I'm in the full package.
28:58All right, Alexis.
28:59Same question.
29:00I think I deserve to be America's next drag superstar.
29:04Because inside of me, like every American and every real person, I am not perfect.
29:10But I have the desire to continue.
29:13And if I can move forward in the competition and become America's next drag superstar,
29:17I will do it with honor, respect, and proud.
29:24Manila, why do you deserve to be crowned America's next drag superstar?
29:29I came to this competition blessed.
29:31I feel like I represent the product of a loving and supportive family.
29:36I'm not a Cinderella story.
29:37My parents didn't kick me out.
29:39My parents have been very loving and very supportive.
29:41And I have a beautiful family.
29:43And I think that I carry a message to love and be really supportive of all your friends and your
29:49family.
29:49Because we all have like the power inside of us.
29:53We just need that extra push.
29:54And I'm here to speak that.
29:59Raja, same question.
30:01In winning this competition, I would love to leave a legacy for all those little boys.
30:09All the little boys who are teased, who are afraid, who don't know how to express themselves creatively yet.
30:16You know, and they don't even know that they're allowed to go against the grain.
30:18It's okay to say fuck you and do what you love to do and express yourself thoroughly.
30:24I want to be an example of someone who is proud, someone who is accomplished, and someone who loves, loves
30:30what they do.
30:31The power of fuck you.
30:35Well, girls, I think we've heard enough.
30:37Now, while you go and untuck in the interior illusions lounge, the judges and I will deliberate.
30:45All right, just between us gargoyles, what do you think?
30:48Let's start with Jara Sofia.
30:50To me, it looked like she got run over by a Brinks truck.
30:52It was a miss.
30:53It was too much.
30:54Her speech?
30:55I'm sorry, but I felt for it.
30:57You're a softie.
30:58Oh my God, this poor thing.
30:59She doesn't have any money.
31:00I really felt for her, but I don't think we can pick a drag superstar based on the fact that
31:04we feel sorry for them.
31:06Right.
31:06All right, let's move on to Alexis.
31:08She's not utilizing her body the way she should and could.
31:12Just the bathing suit alone.
31:13It was like a middle-aged woman trying to get laid at Jones Beach.
31:17If you're going to pick a proportion like an hourglass in that dress,
31:20why are you going to pull all of your hair back into this teeny tiny?
31:23She looked like Beetlejuice.
31:25All right, let's move on to Manila.
31:27The swimsuit was beautiful.
31:28It was feminine.
31:29It was elegant.
31:30Totally nailed the challenge as far as that goes.
31:33She has incredible stage presence.
31:34She's always on when she's up here.
31:36She's the queen of that koi kind of thing.
31:38You have to take that into consideration.
31:40Sure.
31:40When these people have your name attached to them as America's next drag superstar.
31:43Let's move on to Raja.
31:45Now, I've just got to start with that gown.
31:47Crazy good.
31:48Just wow.
31:48Crazy good.
31:49Which was just breathtaking.
31:50Two words about the cocktail dress, Ru?
31:52Mm-hmm.
31:53Boil, Ken.
31:54You're so nice.
31:55Boil.
31:56I'm probably going to lose it again, but listening to Raja's speech, I was one of those little boys.
32:00I was one of those little boys who wanted a beacon of hope, who wanted somebody to look up to,
32:04to say, you know what?
32:05It's going to be okay.
32:05Be yourself, and be creative, and be inspired, and think outside of the box, and don't let anyone ever tell
32:10you that you can't.
32:11You know, so to me, I don't even care what Raja was wearing tonight.
32:15Silence!
32:17I've made my decision.
32:20Bring back my girls.
32:25Welcome back, ladies.
32:27Now, based on your performance in the Make That Money Ball, I've made some decisions.
32:33Manila, this week, you looked like a high roller, but did you hit the jackpot?
32:41Raja, your evening gown eleganza was top dollar, but were you outspent on the runway?
32:58Manila, contractulations, you are the winner of this week's challenge.
33:00Oh, my gosh.
33:02You will receive a collection of fine jewelry from Kathy Ireland Jewelry.
33:07Thank you, guys.
33:08I won!
33:09I won!
33:10Two weeks in a row, bitches!
33:12Yeah.
33:18Raja, you're safe.
33:23Alexis Mateo, Jara Sofia, I'm sorry, my dears, but you are up for elimination.
33:30For me, being the bottom two is like losing.
33:33I feel horrible.
33:36Two queens stand before me.
33:38Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me and save yourself from elimination.
33:46The time has come for you to lip sync for your life.
33:54Jara is my sister, and I know what the competition means to Jara.
33:58She won this so bad, but I won it too.
34:01Good luck, and don't fuck it up.
34:20I think about you.
34:24I think about you.
34:32You, you, you, you, oh, I think about you, I think about you, you, you, you, you, oh, I think
34:44about you.
34:45I cannot even think.
34:46I cannot perform.
34:48I have to lip sync to convince the judges that I'm good.
34:52I don't know if I can.
34:53Oh, I think about you.
35:05I'm crying because there's a lot of emotions.
35:10I was thinking too much.
35:11I'm so angry, and I'm so disappointed.
35:15I'm a mess.
35:18I think about you.
35:19Jara, Jara, Jara, Jara.
35:48Jara, Jara, Jara, Jara.
35:54Jara, Jara, Jara, Jara.
35:55Alexis, Mateo, Shantae, you stay.
36:00I'll tell you that so much.
36:01No way though.
36:02You love me.
36:04I love you like I love whatever you call him.
36:07Let it go.
36:28Sorry, it's emotional.
36:30Don't go in there.
36:34Shara-Sofia, listen to me.
36:37The sparkle you have, the sparkle you brought to this competition, no one can wash off.
36:43It's there.
36:43It's yours.
36:46You are a star.
36:49Remember this, Aisha, Aisha, Aisha Palante.
36:55Now, sashay away.
37:01The lipstick was so awful for me, because I didn't expect to be in the bottom two, but
37:06it's not my decision.
37:07And this is for Puerto Rico.
37:09So I'm gonna shout it Palante, darling.
37:11I'm fine.
37:12I'm so happy.
37:13I'm D my best, and this is me.
37:16I don't know.
37:17I have the most to offer.
37:20All right, ladies.
37:21You're the top three.
37:23Let me tell you something.
37:24Everyone on this panel can attest that show business is a tough business.
37:29It can be very painful, but we go on.
37:32If you cannot love yourself, say it with me, how in the hell you're gonna love somebody
37:40else.
37:40Love somebody else.
37:41Does that make sense?
37:41Yes.
37:42Amen.
37:43Amen.
37:43All right.
37:44Now, let the music play.
37:45It's going to be very small.
37:45Let the music play.
37:45Stay.
