00:03Wow, Kenya has just left us and I think every single one of us is feeling the loss of her.
00:11Oh, Kenya.
00:11Baby, I'm really, really gonna miss that lady.
00:15Love, all of you.
00:17Good luck.
00:18Kenya, take it.
00:19Kenya, please her.
00:22I really loved Kenya.
00:24Having Kenya's energy in the room was just something special.
00:27She is charisma to the core and I'm absolutely gonna miss her.
00:32The question still remains.
00:34Kenya, please her.
00:35And the question also remains.
00:37Can you wipe that off the mirror so we can sit down?
00:39Yup, yup, yup, yup, yup, yup, yup.
00:41You're good at this.
00:41So talented.
00:42I mean, you had sort of a talent at the beginning, but now we've really honed it.
00:46You know what I'm saying?
00:47Yeah, okay.
00:49It's my third time, like, lip syncing.
00:51It's not a good thing.
00:52The judges are still not getting who I am.
00:55It breaks my heart.
00:56I'm someone that's very resilient.
00:59And I'm gonna keep fighting for myself every chance I get.
01:04Congratulations to our winners!
01:06Thank you!
01:07I am on the board!
01:08On the board!
01:09On the board!
01:10I feel galvanized.
01:14My first win and it's the rush.
01:16That is a big one.
01:17I won, like, a drag race staple.
01:21I do feel like the eyes are a little different.
01:22And the other girls are seeing me in the finale.
01:24And that's a really good feeling.
01:26Darlene winning proves that you do not have to spend money on any waves.
01:30That is so she wanted a $7 win.
01:32Don't!
01:32You don't need it!
01:33A hard front and a soft heart.
01:35NeNe, where was your head at when the judges were talking to you?
01:38I feel like a lot of emotions were safe.
01:41But I was in the bottom three.
01:43And in the moment, I was really internalizing what it would mean to go home.
01:49And it felt, like, so scary.
01:51And I don't want to lose this.
01:52This was my first time landing in the bottom three.
01:56It doesn't feel good.
01:57I got some harsher critiques than I have before.
02:00I turned down the shade just a little bit, but the judges were like,
02:04there's still a little work on the delivery.
02:05A little work on the demineifying it.
02:07So, I'm a work in progress, divas.
02:10Maybe the next time you'd read Smile through it.
02:13Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:13You guys are just like, you're fucking ugly.
02:15Right.
02:16You know, something like that.
02:16You should smile more.
02:17Okay, try it.
02:18Darlene, honestly, I don't remember a single one of your jokes,
02:21besides all the props.
02:23Ding.
02:24Ding!
02:25Yeah!
02:27I'm like, bitch.
02:28There's no more room for error.
02:29There are less and less seats at this table.
02:31So, whatever I need to do in this game of musical chairs to get in the seat,
02:36I'm gonna do.
02:41Ah!
02:42Banana!
02:43Teethburger!
02:46Oh, yeah, a pose.
02:47Yes.
02:48Oh!
02:49Banana!
02:51It is the top six of season 18.
02:54Bitch, we are here!
02:55This feels like a milestone.
02:57Sure.
02:57Kinda feels like a kidney stone.
02:59Okay, comedy queen.
03:00Oh my god, yeah, sorry.
03:01Snatched game winner.
03:02Me and Darlene are kind of the comedy queens of the season, I fear.
03:06Wow!
03:06Speaking of Darlene, I just wanna put this out there,
03:09that Darlene has a degree in fashion design.
03:13Yes.
03:14And professionally is a hair stylist.
03:17Yeah.
03:17And has been looking like that.
03:21Like that.
03:21You got on the wig and you move that bang for 20 minutes.
03:25They've been wanting countries, and baby, I'm not here.
03:30Oh!
03:31Oh!
03:32She's not ready to hand her.
03:34Let's go!
03:36Roo Roo number 19.

10:32So excited to have you here so greg tell me about you
10:36Well, I am from a reservation in arizona
10:39Navajo
10:41Yeah, and i've been doing rodeo since i was a little kid that's awesome
10:44How long have you been uh in the rodeo world so i've been in the gay rodeo world for 32
10:49years
10:50That's incredible the gay rodeo itself has been going on for almost 50 years really believe that rodeo is generally
10:56a hetero
10:58Sexual right driven sport, but we welcome everybody. It's a welcome open safe space. All are welcome to participate
11:03I'm obsessed the gay rodeo
11:05I'm going to the next one in my giant belt buckle and 10 gallon hat
11:08How has it been um being queer in the in the rodeo scene?
11:12Well in the gay rodeo it's fine, but in the regular rodeo it was
11:16The i'd say the country is like the country think people are like 50 years behind and then having a
11:20high-pitched voice like this
11:22Come after me left and right
11:23Don't worry mama handled it
11:26Have you ever been in drag before no so basically the looks that i have in mind is two trashy
11:31bitches in vegas
11:33Been there done that. Yes
11:35When i say trashy bitches
11:37I mean
11:40I'm gonna look like my mother
11:42I'm not exactly the glamour queen you know and i'm like do i need to apologize like is he expecting
11:47a pageant gown?
11:48And he comes like just straight out with he's also a trashy bitch and i'm like oh this is going
11:53to be fantastic
11:56All the girls two weeks ago said that i should go home
12:00So now we have to win yeah
12:01Now we extra have why did they want you to go home
12:03They're mad that i get rude's attention they're mad that i'm pretty and they're mad that my makeup is
12:07In my opinion also the best of all the girls like i would want me to go home too
12:11I do makeup every day back home as a makeup artist
12:14So i've put plenty of people in drag and i can make them look exactly like me
12:19I'm very competitive and i love competing against my friends but i also enjoy it more when i beat these
12:25people
12:26I truly got the perfect canvas and the perfect person for me
12:29He has my facial features so we are going to slay this challenge
12:35You seem galvanized and and ready to ready to do it i'm ready to tackle it
12:40Are you down to shave your beard?
12:41Yeah
12:41Okay
12:41Only thing i will not let you do is shave my eyebrows
12:43Okay
12:44You have nice hair too you have a lot of hair
12:45Do you have a mullet?
12:46Yeah
12:47Same
12:49Same
12:50Okay that's terry we're on the same page
12:53We do have matching mullets and i know i can connect to anybody who has a mullet
12:57What is it like being a gay cowboy?
13:00It's my happy place
13:01Yeah
13:03When i came out that was one of the issues i had coming out was
13:08I was giving up a way of life
13:11And when i found out there was a gay rodeo i fell in love
13:14I am really sort of struck by just how nice of a guy he is
13:20Which is like making me feel kind of emotional
13:22This guy has led this life that is so wildly different from mine
13:27But he's also part of the reason that i can do what i am doing right now
13:32And i just really want to make sure that like he has a good time doing this
13:36As i mentioned this is a little bit painful
13:39No pain no going
13:40Exactly
13:41Exactly
13:42I will also probably tell you this is not the first time i've put on a dress
13:44What's your drag experience then?
13:46I actually was a host of drag queen bingo in denver
13:52Mikey's cowboy is a former drag queen which like i'm sorry referee like
13:58Can we get a ruling on this is this allowed?
14:01Oh
14:03She's dick bitch
14:04Coming here and i will tell you i'm terrified of my own femininity
14:08I'm not scared of being gay i'm open and all that but
14:11You know people i present like this it's very difficult to be you know to embrace that feminine part
14:16Was it just from like childhood it was always kind of like
14:19There was that separation
14:20Men were men and girls were girls
14:22Yeah
14:22My cowboy jason is somebody who for their entire life has had to hide parts of themselves for safety
14:30I'm learning that he was never afforded this space to express his queerness or his femininity
14:37I hope that through this experience we can reconnect with some of that femininity and
14:41That's the beautiful part about drag is you do get to explore
14:45Those parts of yourself
14:46I think there is a lot of fear in this moment
14:49But jason is so ready to learn what this workroom has to offer
14:53And i think jason is ready to
14:55Pull the mask down just a little bit
14:58I have some sickening looks prepared for us
15:00It's like an homage to my culture
15:03You know i want to give us like a carmen miranda type of vibe
15:06So it's going to be very big sleeves
15:08It's a huge train
15:09So my idea for this runway is this like two-piece moment
15:13Arm
15:16Sorry it's twisted
15:17Yes
15:19What am I going to wear underneath?
15:22I don't think Juicy did the calculation
15:25That her makeover partner probably would not be Juicy sized
15:31I definitely need to cover you up some more
15:35I want to see how
15:36It's a big body
15:36I got you baby
15:37I gotta adjust because i've never dressed somebody this size
15:41I've never dressed a man before
15:43So i got some work to do
15:45Baby
15:47Can we see can we see how this headpiece looks
15:49I'll join you let me see hold on one sec
15:55Oh my god
15:58See that could have been you
16:01Wow nini
16:02That's horrible looking
16:04Anyways how are you going to be able to swim in that swimming cap
16:09Nini's giving bugs life
16:10What are you all wearing?
16:11Are you jealous?
16:12No i'm just confused
16:14Discord get your daughter together
16:17Mind your business bitches
16:18You just wait until we get to the main stage
16:20I know that I can bring this together
16:22And can make it work
16:25Let me see if I can get this
16:26Oh lord jesus
16:28Girl this ain't gonna work
16:31This week's challenge is a drag makeover
16:33Oh honey honey
16:35You can't clock me
16:36You can't clock it
16:37We gotta transform these gay cowboys into our drag daughters
16:41Pretty honestly pretty good
16:42Just keep those steps kind of nice and long
16:44To be fair to my cowboy
16:45For a six-year-old man who has never walked in heels
16:49He's not doing bad
16:51He's also not doing great
16:54Ladies of the night
16:55It's it's really stiff
16:56Yeah i'm not buying
16:58That's okay nobody was asking you too babe
17:00So let's just without even trying anything
17:05Bitch yes yes yes yes yes
17:08You got it girl
17:09The hips are moving the right way
17:11She doesn't look like discord
17:13It's amazing
17:14Oh there we go
17:15Oh my god see you already got this
17:16I think my cowboy might be better at walking than I am
17:20It's so obnoxious
17:27Darlene and Chris come on over
17:31Now you had a great week last week
17:33The judges all commented on the shift
17:36What did it feel like from your perspective
17:37It was just like really kind of like making that decision in my mind
17:41To just have fun and if I'm having fun
17:43It is an invitation for for you and the rest of the panel to kind of just join me
17:47Wherever it was I was going
17:49Truer words have never been spoken
17:51You got to remember that too for you Chris because that's what drag is all about
17:55Have you ever walked in high heels?
17:57Yes
17:57You have
17:57I clean my house in them
17:59You clean your house in them
18:00How high are your heels?
18:02Like stripper heels
18:03Really?
18:03Big ones yes
18:04Oh so you're one step ahead of the competition
18:06I'm a step ahead of all these bitches
18:09Now Chris what events do you compete in?
18:12So steer deco
18:13Is that like art deco?
18:15So they let a steer out
18:17Is that a cow?
18:17With no nuts
18:20A steer is a cow with no nuts
18:22Yes
18:22I think I've got the title for my next book
18:25I'm excited for you Chris
18:27Thank you
18:27All right kids get back to work
18:29Thank you
18:29All right Juicy and Greg come on over
18:32How's it going?
18:33Terrific
18:33Lovely
18:34You have a lot of fancy outfits like country western star like fringes and all that kind of stuff
18:38I think I accessorize Molly with that stuff
18:42Uh-huh
18:43I can't really use fringe because when I'm roping it might get tangled in a rope and
18:46Who cares?
18:47You look fabulous
18:49Now you were in the bottom last week
18:51Yes I was
18:51Yeah
18:52What did you learn about yourself?
18:53That I was a bit too nice and I could have brought more of a character to the roast
18:59Yeah you know it just felt like you hadn't found your voice yet
19:02Yeah I have to stand more in my power and my bad bitch energy and just bring it out
19:08Like when the music comes on like it comes out of me in that way
19:11But my voice is something that I am going to harness and ride into the sunset
19:16It's just something that you find after a while a certain style that becomes your own
19:21I can't wait I always love it when the kids get into drag
19:24It'll be interesting to see what emerges from your personality
19:28I can serve some looks
19:30Okay we're gonna hold you to that
19:32I'm ready
19:32All right Miss Ropey Doe
19:34You're getting ready for her walk baby
19:35Okay
19:35You're getting ready for the walk baby
19:37Discord and Colton come on over
19:39Hello
19:41Now what events do you participate in at the rodeo?
19:44Calf roping, I do the barrel racing, pole bending
19:47Pole bending?
19:49On the horse
19:49On the horse, pole bending
19:51Yes
19:51What does that look like?
19:52We get out of the gates, I feel her heart beat through my butthole before we take down
19:57And she books it and then we turn the end pole as fast as we can
20:01And you just bob and weave, bob and weave, bob and weave
20:03Then you just haul ass home
20:05Okay
20:07So I see you got these little purses there
20:09Have you chosen a name yet?
20:11I'm gonna be Harmony
20:12Discord and Harmony
20:13Discord and Harmony
20:13Discord and Harmony
20:15Like I wanted to be like the mean like
20:17Bitchy like punk girl at school
20:18And he's gonna be like the mean preppy girl at school
20:21I want to do a nod to Clueless to Legally Blonde to Mean Girls
20:24To all the gay movies we all grew up watching
20:26All right now, you know Michelle's gonna be looking for a family resemblance
20:29She doesn't really take to these highfalutin concepts too much
20:34I think what's good is that the preppy girls are mean
20:36The punk girls are mean
20:38So it's like we have the same face but like the opposite aesthetic
20:41And it but it'll look
20:42Listen listen if you can make it work
20:44But if you have to explain it
20:46Just be prepared
20:47Rue's not picking up the vibe and what I'm laying down
20:50Thank you Rue
20:51But once she sees it I think she'll get it
20:53We are so deep into the competition
20:55And I have yet to win anything other than mini challenges
20:59I am dying for a win
21:04All right, Jason and NeNe, come on down
21:08What does that sash say?
21:09What's up, Mr. Colorado Gay Rodeo Association
21:12First runner up
21:13So who won?
21:14I'm not saying his name
21:15There was collusion
21:17Oh, there was collusion
21:19Okay, so you got Miss NeNe Coco
21:22And Miss NeNe Coco has won
21:24Two challenges
21:25Two challenges
21:26You gonna make it three with Miss Jason?
21:28Absolutely
21:30She is a diva
21:31And it is ready to explode
21:33I can feel it
21:34Okay, Jason, have you ever done drag before?
21:37No
21:37You have a cute little nose
21:39That's gonna be whittled down really nicely
21:41Oh yeah
21:42I see some cats with plumes coming out of them
21:45Yes
21:45I was hoping to illustrate the mother-daughter experience
21:49And I was gonna be a beautiful butterfly
21:51And this is gonna be my baby caterpillar
21:54Now, you know Michelle's gonna bring up the family resemblance thing
21:57Yes
21:57That's her thing
21:58Yeah
21:58You know, everybody has their thing
21:59Yeah
21:59Michelle's thing is what?
22:01Family resemblance
22:02That's right
22:03And being a whore
22:06All right, kids
22:06We'll get back to work
22:07Can't wait to see you
22:08All right
22:09Thank you, Drew
22:10All right, Mikey and Michael
22:12Oh, what pretty hair you've got there
22:15Thank you, Drew
22:16We're going old Hollywood red carpets
22:18Oh, wow, that's really pretty
22:20And what's gonna push you over the top this week?
22:23We are gonna walk it like it is the red carpet
22:25And we have paparazzi around us
22:27And we're the shits
22:28That's what it's all about
22:28I'm sure
22:29Well, that's what you gotta do
22:30Have you done drag before?
22:32Honestly, I have to say yes or I have
22:34You have?
22:35There's a royalty in the gay rodeo
22:36And I was Miss International Gay Rodeo in 2000
22:39Oh my gosh
22:41Did you have your fingers crossed that you would get Michael?
22:43I feel like fate did put us together
22:44Getting to know Michael a little bit more
22:46I think this is a really great match
22:48This is a title holder
22:49All right, well, have fun and I can't wait
22:52Thanks, Drew
22:52Thank you
22:53Jane and Terry, come on over
22:57Are those turkey feathers?
22:58They're, I think they're cock feathers
23:00Cock feathers, beautiful
23:02Hi, Terry
23:03How old were you when you participated in your first rodeo?
23:07High school
23:07And what event did you participate in?
23:09Laws and steers
23:10Where you rope them?
23:11No, rode them
23:12You rode the bull and the steer
23:14Yes
23:14Okay, have you figured out the connection between drag and rodeo yet?
23:18You know, Terry is discovering how physically demanding drag is
23:21Well, you've got the heels on already
23:22And he has been very adamant that we are training in these heels
23:26Yeah
23:26And I think Terry will probably regret wearing closed toes
23:30Do you have a name yet?
23:32Yeah, we settled on Maybe Don't
23:33Ooh, Maybe Don't
23:34Maybe Don't
23:35Maybe Don't, honey
23:36I love that name
23:37Well, you love them cock feathers, don't you?
23:40Yeah, covered in cock feathers
23:42I can't get enough of them
23:44I'm going to have to place this home
23:45Oh, there's cock feather in your mouth, Terry
23:48Behave
23:49Never
23:51Well, I'm so excited to see Terry stomping that runway with those heels
23:56Thank you, Rue
23:56Thank you
23:57All right, listen up, Buffalo girls
23:59Ooh
23:59Listen up
24:00Now, I know this ain't your first rodeo
24:03But tomorrow, you will be making your drag family debuts on the main stage
24:09So good luck, and don't buck it up
24:12Hey
24:17Juicy, they have your size
24:19Thank you, Darlene
24:20You always think of me, sister
24:22Ladies, it's time for a roping lesson
24:24No way
24:26So the cowboys decide to give us queens a little lesson in roping and riding
24:31Now just follow through with your arm
24:33I am first thinking that I'm about to nail this
24:35Okay
24:38Oh, that was good
24:42It's not my gig, ladies and gentlemen
24:45There you go
24:46Oh
24:48Yes, miss
24:49Yes
24:52Oh
24:53Close
24:53This is really classic me into competition
24:56I'm always hitting the target but never quite lassoing it
24:58So safe again
24:59I did tell you I was going to teach you how to steer wrestle
25:02Yeah, yeah, yeah
25:02Okay, come on down
25:03Oh my god, wait
25:04Okay
25:06NeNe wastes no time getting on all fours
25:08All right, come up from behind
25:10Here
25:11What?
25:12Here
25:13And then roll
25:16You can tell it's been a minute since that lady's been wrestled
25:19Jane's got a good swing
25:22High five
25:23Yay
25:24I think there's a total crossover here between this gay rodeo world and the drag world
25:30Like first of all, the gay cowboys are shady as fuck
25:32Which immediately makes me feel at home
25:34If we are going to have anything to wear on the runway tomorrow, we have to get to work
25:37We're ready
25:38We're ready
25:38But there's also this theme of people who are outsiders kind of banding together
25:42To create these little networks where they can be themselves
25:45It has that same kind of in-group like community vibe
25:49It's really amazing
25:50You want to touch them?
25:51Get off me
25:55Let's go y'all
25:57Hello
25:58It's runway day and it's time to get these cowboys into drag
26:03This is your spot right here
26:07All right
26:08Are you excited to be the prettiest lady in the room?
26:10Yes
26:10Well, not prettier than you
26:12I've not had this gone in 15 years
26:14It's not a lot
26:14But it's because I have a booty chin
26:16I love my booty chin
26:19See, that's how I knew we were meant to be
26:21There you go
26:21It's a booty chin
26:22Say goodbye
26:22Any last words?
26:24Goodbye salt and pepper
26:26Here comes the booty
26:28Now
26:29Today is special
26:30You said it's been about five years
26:32It's been about five years
26:33Since you last in drag
26:34Yeah
26:35What was that last time in drag like?
26:39It was hard
26:42I did it five years ago
26:43And it had been like a three year break in between then
26:45So to shave this off and kind of lose that
26:49A little bit of masculinity
26:50Yeah
26:51Is hard
26:53Because I just found myself again
26:54My cowboy Michael is sharing with me that he gave up his passion for drag because he didn't feel secure
27:03with the masculinity underneath it all
27:06And I get it
27:09There's Mikey the glamour and then there's like genuine Mikey underneath it all
27:13Right
27:13When I'm in it so often I feel like I lose that true sense of self
27:16Because they're loving the character
27:18They're loving the persona
27:19But they're not knowing who I am underneath it
27:21And so you know it's important to make sure you're taking care of both
27:24Absolutely
27:24Yeah
27:25I think today is a day to let go of any opinions of what others may have about you
27:32Today is about empowering your inner diva
27:35Absolutely
27:35Right
27:36And yes this will be you know it's going to take a moment to get used to this again
27:40But it is going to grow back
27:41I hope that this makeover will help my new drag daughter
27:44Find the power that I know she has within her
27:47And feel even more comfortable with both sides of her gender expression
27:52I adore you
27:53I know uh I don't want to call discord fade but fate put us together for sure
27:57It's true
27:57A lot of hair
28:00He's wearing sleeves he's not showing under the outfit
28:03Very womanly
28:04But what a real drag queen does is shave her armpits and shave her chest
28:08Unless you're Nini Coco
28:10Oh goodbye
28:12How are we feeling?
28:13Nervous
28:13First time since high school
28:16The end of an era
28:17I'm good
28:18Okay
28:19All right let's do it
28:20Let's do it
28:22As I'm getting my cowboy ready I honestly
28:26I'm so stressed
28:28I have thus far in the competition never once even been lower than high
28:34I've won three challenges
28:35So there is an expectation that I'm going to deliver something really amazing
28:41Oh lord
28:42Oh my gosh
28:43You look so good
28:46You are so handsome
28:47Oh my god
28:49Terry
28:49You're so cute
28:51Honestly
28:51Terry looks cute
28:52And my hope is that at the end of this he feels beautiful
28:59How do you think your fiancee is going to react?
29:01He's going to laugh
29:02He's going to laugh?
29:03Mm-hmm
29:04I haven't been clean shaven since I left the army
29:06Joining the military it was easy to fake the masculinity because it's part of the uniform so to speak
29:12And it was required
29:13Absolutely
29:14You had no choice
29:15Yeah you can't go flouncing around the barracks
29:17You know Barry Winchell was a really good friend of mine
29:21We worked under the same command for a while and so
29:24You know we became friends and sort of confided in each other and he was dating a trans woman
29:29And some of our other people around him told him you can't bring a drag queen to the company picnic
29:34And he didn't listen
29:38And it cost him his life
29:40Some of his fellow soldiers found out and they beat him to death with a baseball bat
29:43Oh my god
29:45I was encouraged not to sort of have any kind of feeling emotion or opinion about it to keep myself
29:50safe
29:51I said and did nothing
29:52It was heartbreaking because you can't mourn your friend for fear of you being next and
29:58Oh my god
29:59Yeah
30:01And it it's I was like that's going to be me if I don't figure out how to
30:07Fake this a little bit better, so
30:09I'm so sorry
30:11Can I give you a hug?
30:12Oh my god
30:13I know that I don't know you fully yet
30:15Oh don't cry
30:16But I do love you
30:17Because oh the things that you have gone through like I have so much love for you
30:21The things he's been through are really heavy
30:27This is about celebrating his courage and his bravery and him finding this piece of his femininity that he
30:33Has neglected before
30:35I don't always have the words to say
30:38The fact that you want the words is enough
30:45Listen I have one win and since then I've been pretty close to almost winning each challenge after that
30:53I don't know what is preventing me from getting that
30:55Win
30:57But I want this one
30:58Wow we need the second one
30:59We need this one
30:59We need this one
31:00Ladies
31:01Uh oh
31:02The library is open
31:04Oh no
31:06Which victim do I want to eat first?
31:08Looks like you already ate
31:12I would have never in my life been like I have a bunch in common with like gay cowboys
31:16But we're hanging out with them and I'm like girl
31:19Y'all are catty bitches
31:20We're gonna cover up your shame
31:22Anybody got a face mask?
31:24I thought a caterpillar was supposed to turn into a beautiful butterfly
31:27This bitch looks like she hit a fucking windshield going 90 miles an hour
31:32Is this how y'all talk every day?
31:34It's usually a little uh less pg
31:41Welcome to the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race
31:44She puts the sass in sarsaparilla
31:47Michelle Visage

32:47Are those antennae in your pocket or you're just happy to see me?
32:51Is that a bee?
32:53Uh sure
32:53We are floating down the runway in our insect couture
32:56From antennae to wings to thorax it is all hand stitched
33:00My drag daughter is wearing this gorgeous neon yellow gown covered in black sequin
33:06We both share the same antennas and lashes
33:08I've got one hungry little caterpillar here and she is ready for that win
33:12She's the caterpillar of society
33:14Oh it's a caterpillar?
33:15Yeah just realized it now
33:16Thank you
33:18Mikey Meeks and Morgan Meeks
33:20From the Michelle Visage collection
33:23Mikey Meeks stars in a Meeks family affair featuring her drag daughter Morgan Meeks
33:31You cannot deny the family resemblance here
33:34We have the same wig going different ways
33:36The makeup is identical
33:38I gave her the cocktail because daughter wants to show off her legs
33:41Yes
33:42Those aren't easy heels either
33:43No
33:44The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree darling
33:46Ain't nothing meek about these two
33:48It's Big Ange and Little Ange
33:53Juicy Love Dion and Lucy Love Dion
33:56Ooh Lucy and Juicy sounds like a good night out
34:00The Love Dion girls are pumping down this runway like two Afro-Cuban goddesses
34:06I had to make a body suit to cover up my cowboy
34:09So thankfully I learned how to sew in this competition
34:11Lucy Love Dion eats up the rodeo circuit every time and now she's eating up this drag race runway stage
34:17Should I quit my job because she's about to take over
34:20It's Chiquita and Boquita
34:22Havana she better don't
34:24Lucy you got some explaining to do
34:29Jane don't and maybe don't
34:31Ladies and gentlemen the Judds
34:33The don't sisters are known for their boa jobs
34:38The concept that I'm serving is this vaudeville sister act
34:42This is old school glamour
34:44There's vintage hair
34:46We both have our cock feather boas
34:49Maybe is feeling it
34:51It's important to take care of her and make sure that she has a good time going down this runway
34:54And I'm just really glad that he seems like he's having a good time
34:59Oh brothel
35:01See you at the chicken ranch ladies
35:03Discord Adams and Harmony Adams
35:07She's clueless
35:08As if
35:10Harmony and I are sisters at the same school but we sit at different lunch tables
35:14Because she's preppy and I hate that
35:16And I'm punk and she hates that even more
35:19Kind of want to steal her boyfriend
35:22We are both wearing tweed
35:24We have the same hairstyle
35:25We are just an opposite color scheme
35:27We look so stinking cute
35:29She's pushing me
35:30I'm pushing her
35:31I am so proud of my baby trap daughter
35:34She is killing it
35:35Look it's Tuesday and Wednesday Adams
35:40Darlene Mitchell
35:42And Bonnie Mitchell
35:43Girls trip
35:44You know what happens in Reno
35:46Usually requires a penicillin shot
35:50My sister and I cashed in our vacation days
35:53And we are headed to Reno baby
35:54We love a thrift store
35:56So we are rolling the dice on this look
35:58We've got our margaritas in hand
36:00We've got our matching little purses
36:02And we may be sisters from another mister
36:04But mama taught us how to paint
36:05We've got the tacky blue eyeshadow
36:07And a bold red lip to match
36:09We are ready to win
36:11And bike shorts of course
36:12Because you never know when you're gonna have to hightail it out of there
36:15Just a couple of slots
36:16Yes those slots are loose
36:18Mm-hmm I've heard
36:19These girls are definitely getting lucky
36:24Welcome y'all
36:27Now it's time for the judges critique
36:30First up Nene Coco
36:33And this is Patsy Coco
36:36Oooh
36:38I don't know if you know how particular I am in this challenge
36:42And even though they are gorgeous
36:44And you both look amazing
36:45You did a beautiful time delivering it
36:46It's not a family resemblance to me
36:50This is a costume with the same antennas and eyelashes
36:52But not a family resemblance
36:54I also didn't know what the fuck Jason was
36:57Michelle had to tell me it was a caterpillar
36:59I thought it was a bee at first
37:00I thought the costumes were cute
37:01But there's no family resemblance at all
37:04Where I'm from it's an old saying that says
37:07Mama's baby papa's maybe
37:12Listen black people got family everywhere okay
37:14And you could be my cousin
37:17From one curvy girl to the next
37:19I think you look absolutely beautiful
37:21This outfit is hitting you in all the right places
37:23You are just snatched
37:26So Patsy what do you think the people at the rodeo
37:29Would think of this get up
37:31Um I'm so terrified of my own femininity
37:33That I present myself very gruff very aggressive
37:36I wrestle steer so for anyone to see me this soft
37:40Sort of goofing around
37:41I think it'll be like hey there's another part of you
37:43And we love it
37:44Wow
37:44You know I always feel more butch in drag than I do
37:47Thank you very much
37:51Up next Mikey Meeks
37:54And this is Morgan Meeks
37:57Y'all are giving opulent
38:00Truly I was thinking
38:01Y'all look like y'all could have been in the
38:03Viennetta ice cream commercials
38:04Like y'all just look rich you know
38:06I'm from Jersey I'm like this is everything I grew up with
38:09It's literally like looking at season three of me
38:12And season 14 of me
38:15There is no question you two are related
38:20To me but yes you're related to each other
38:22I renamed you Nichelle and Rochelle Visage
38:27We'll take it
38:29Michael you really really held your arm against the queen
38:32And your feet look so tiny in those shoes
38:35Morgan this is not your first rodeo
38:37Yes yes
38:38In heels
38:39No ma'am no it's
38:40No well it showed
38:41How different is Morgan from the drag you've done before
38:45It's a rebirth
38:46To come out here and stomp the runway again and just get that adrenaline rush
38:50Was everything
38:51Why did you give it up?
38:53I lost my masculinity and I thought giving up drag would help me find it again
38:57I was wrong
38:59I'm more powerful now I stand in power today
39:01Praise him
39:02Right won't he do it?
39:03Yes you will
39:04Welcome back
39:05Thank you
39:07Up next juicy love dion and this is lucy love dion
39:14You two make complete sense the hair choices the makeup choices the jewelry choices
39:21It's not always about matchy match but it's about understanding there's a cohesion
39:26One thing I hate to do is agree with Michelle
39:29But everything she said about you guys is correct
39:33You are a mother and daughter and you've been able to turn greg into cilia cruz
39:38Yes
39:38That's all I saw when I looked at her
39:40Greg what have you learned about yourself in this process?
39:42I'm so used to being on top in the rodeo
39:47And juicy just made me into a beautiful woman
39:51It's it's empowering because I couldn't have done this myself
39:55I really love you thank you
39:58Up next jane don't and this is maybe don't
40:03Jane maybe is extremely glamorous
40:06With that said
40:08You know I'm gonna tell you I'm not getting family resemblance
40:11The style of the dress is different the jewelry is different you have to give us something
40:17That would make us believe that you're related apart from the same hair color
40:20Finally I disagree
40:23I totally see a family resemblance I see that you tried to beat the face and make the bone structure
40:28similar
40:28You definitely are related
40:30I have to agree with law y'all are giving twins
40:32Literally when you walked out I said what episode of parent trap is this
40:36Lindsay Lohan would be proud
40:37I have a soft spot for redheads my hubby is a redhead and y'all truly are the deis of
40:43caucasians
40:45Perry did you have fun
40:46I had an amazing time jane has just been over the top to make sure everything I needed wanted happened
40:54I was very stressed during this process because I just really wanted to
40:58Take care of terry and make sure that he was having fun
41:01I commend you for that and you had so much patience and so much grace and that kind of warms
41:06my bitter cold
41:07Broken heart
41:09Thank you for having me i've had the best time looking this glamorous
41:12I'd never dream I would look as good or better than you ripoff
41:20The cowboys are shady
41:23Up next discord adams and this is harmony adams this is season 1347
41:33Drag race and we know what the judges are expecting and it just didn't make any sense and I hate
41:37it
41:38I hate it like I hate my father and I really hate my father
41:41You all look like small business owners who are scammers
41:45And I kind of was feeling it but I don't really see siblings or mother daughter
41:50You two are best friends
41:52Even the updos are different different color different style again this is drag family resemblance
41:58So I expect you to look alike
42:00However, you had such a cute little act
42:02You're the cutesy one and she's tripping you and I enjoyed the performance
42:06Never thought you saw the day that I was the nice judge
42:09Sorry
42:10Harmony what category do you think discord would excel at in the rodeo goat dressing
42:21Is that a real category
42:22Yes, ma'am
42:24That's where we have our underwear on our hands and you just run down pick the goat up somebody and
42:28the other one shoves the underwear on
42:30You run back across the line
42:32They look like these
42:34Come on rodeo
42:35I hate you
42:36Oh my gosh rodeo
42:39Up next Darlene Mitchell
42:41And now this is Miss Bonnie Mitchell
42:45You guys were actually my favorite
42:48Yes, you are giving me two happy hookers
42:51Who are walking down the street saying it's sweater weather
42:55These are my kind of girls, okay
42:58I'm ready to go to all-inclusive holiday in with y'all
43:01Have our long island iced teas
43:02And take them dites on your head and play craps with them
43:05I'm obsessed
43:06It's such a storytelling moment
43:08And I do believe that y'all are siblings
43:10And I do believe that there is also generational trauma there
43:13And I am for it
43:15And I am into it
43:17When the two of you came out, I instantly went
43:19Mm-mm, nope, your best friend's at a casino
43:21No, but the more I got into the storyline
43:24Yeah, it's a family resemblance with therapy in the future
43:28Two pills a day
43:30There is definitely a family dynamic here
43:33That we probably don't want to know about
43:35You know, where like a sister will tell the daughter that
43:39Actually, I'm not your sister, I'm your mother
43:44We kind of expected this from you, Darlene
43:47We did not expect for Bonnie to also take on the family aesthetic
43:52I've never looked so fucking pretty in my life
43:54Oh, really?
43:55Yes, this is beautiful
43:57Do you look like someone in your family?
43:59No, no one looks as pretty in my family
44:03Thank you, queens and cowboys
44:06I think we've heard enough
44:07While you untuck backstage, the judges and I will deliberate
44:12Now, just between us cowpokes
44:15What do you think?
44:16Starting with Nini and Patsy Coco
44:18I loved the story about transformation
44:21However, they were cued in a school play type of way
44:25I prefer Jason out of drag, to be quite honest
44:27Nini Coco has slayed every single challenge
44:31That kid is so smart
44:33But the family resemblance just wasn't there
44:35Mikey and Morgan Meeks
44:36Truly giving generational wealth
44:38And I love that
44:40Absolutely, they were family
44:42They were sister sledge
44:44Stevie Wonder could see these two are related
44:48Juicy and Lucy love Dionne
44:50I'm Jamaican and so they would fit so well in carnival
44:53The colors were just so bright and ornate
44:55And the performance was entertaining
44:57I just love those two
44:59I love the two and I even love the names Juicy and Lucy
45:01Yes
45:01Jane and maybe don't
45:03I thought the family resemblance was definitely there
45:05It was like Patsy Cline and Calvin Cline
45:10Jane has not made any missteps up till now
45:13I don't know why she chose to be so different with the outfits
45:16She could have done a little red on her blue
45:18And a little blue on her red just to tie it together
45:20Because the silhouette was different
45:22One was a gown, was an asymmetrical short dress
45:24The entire panel disagrees
45:25But for me, the same hair color does not a family resemblance make
45:29Discord and Harmony Adams
45:31I did see the Clueless reference
45:33But it just was not giving family at all
45:35Listen, I had this discussion with Discord in the workroom
45:38I said, I get the concept, but it's not going to fly
45:41We know Michelle is going to breed you for filth
45:44If there is no family resemblance
45:45And you took your tough ass out there anyway
45:48At the end of the day, this is a drag family resemblance
45:51Yeah
45:51You get the opportunity to look like your partner
45:54So make it happen, it's in the title
45:56I don't get it
45:57She did it to piss you off, Michelle
45:58Yes, she did, girl
45:59She frickin' did
46:01Darlene and Bonnie Mitchell
46:02I mean, they just look like they pay in traveler's checks still
46:05I mean
46:06They also love to dine and dash
46:08Yes
46:09These are my type of girls
46:11Now, family resemblance
46:12Okay, there were similarities
46:14Distant cousins, mother-daughter, sisters
46:17Whatever it was, I bought it
46:19They were fully, not only related, but connected
46:21All right
46:22Silence
46:23I have made my decision
46:24Bring back my girls
46:27Welcome back, queens
46:28I've made some decisions
46:30Oh, I meant to say, I've made some incisions
46:33Oh, yikes
46:34Doctor
46:36Juicy
46:37When it comes to drag family resemblance
46:41Tonight, you served Wacky
46:45Darlene
46:46You served Tacky
46:48And Mikey
46:50You served Jackie
46:54As in Jackie Stallone
46:56Oh, yes, ma'am
46:58Fucker
47:02Mikey Meeks
47:04Condragulations, you're the winner of this week's challenge
47:06What's up, baby? Good job, good job, good job
47:09Oh, my God

47:15Ooh, my nipples hard
47:17You've won a cash tip of $5,000
47:20Plus a tip of $2,500 for your partner
47:24Yes, oh, my God
47:26And you got $2,500
47:28Oh, we're going to the rodeo, baby
47:30And to all our cowboys
47:33As a token of our appreciation
47:35Each of you will receive an extra special gift bag
47:39From Anastasia Beverly Hills
47:42To help you as you continue on your drag journey
47:46I'm going to look this gorgeous all the time
47:49And remember, casting for season 19 is now open
47:54Juicy Love Dion, Darlene Mitchell, you are safe
47:57And you three may step to the back of the stage
48:00Thank you
48:00Thank you
48:02Oh, this is the first time Jade's been in the bottom, isn't it?
48:06Jane, don't
48:07Your family resemblance was a big maybe
48:11Uh-oh
48:12Discord Adams
48:14Your mismatched pairing left the judges clueless
48:19Nene Coco
48:21Butterflies may be free
48:22But this look could cost you
48:31Jane, don't
48:33You are safe
48:35Yes
48:39Discord
48:40Nene
48:42I'm sorry, my dears
48:43But you are both up for elimination
48:45I got a lot of negative critiques
48:47And I'm not delusional
48:49I heard them this time
48:50But I don't agree with them
48:51I know that Nene is a fierce performer
48:54But luckily, this is a ballad
48:56And while I'm not known for dancing
48:58I do know I can serve a ballad
49:01Two queens stand before me
49:03Ladies, this is your last chance
49:06To impress me
49:07And save yourself
49:09From elimination
49:12This is my first time in the bottom two
49:14And I am terrified
49:15I've worked so hard to be here
49:17And I am not leaving this competition
49:20Discord, there's the door
49:22Sorry, girl
49:23The time has come
49:25For you to lip sync
49:27For
49:29Your
49:30Life
49:35I'm shaking
49:36I know, my hands are like sweating
49:38Good luck
49:39And don't
49:41Fuck it up
49:44I didn't think you'd understand me
49:50How could you ever even try
49:56I don't wanna tip-toe
49:58But I don't wanna hide
50:00But I don't wanna feed this monstrous fire
50:04Just wanna let this story die
50:08And I'll be alright
50:10And I'll be alright
50:11We can't be friends
50:14But I'd like to just pretend
50:17You cling to your papers and pens
50:21Wait until you like me again
50:25Wait for your love
50:29I'll wait for your love
50:31Come on, girls
50:33Come on, girls
50:34Me and my truth
50:36We sit in silence
50:41We can't be friends
50:45We can't be friends
50:45But I'd like to just pretend
50:48You cling to your papers and pens
50:52Wait until you like me again
50:56Wait for your love
50:59I'll wait for your love
51:03I know that you're made
51:05I don't like how you paint me
51:10Yet I'm still here hanging
51:11I know what you're made
51:15It's something like a daydream
51:17But it feels so seen in the night
51:21Something now it's only me
51:24And maybe that's all I need
51:28We can't be friends
51:31But I'd like to just pretend
51:34You cling to your papers and pens
51:38Wait until you like me again
51:42Wait for your love
51:43Come on, girls
51:45I'll wait for your love
51:48I'll wait for your love
51:53I'll wait for your love

52:21Thank you
52:23I love you so much
52:24You deserve it, baby

52:53But I'm gonna do it how I used to
52:59Now y'all get to see it
53:02Well, see you on All Stars
53:09I'm feeling incredibly proud of my partner, Harmony
53:12He looked so beautiful
53:14In Discord land, I fucking nailed it
53:16I am a punk rock motherfucker
53:18Who is going to change the way that you see drag
53:22Eat the rich
53:23Fuck the patriarchy
53:24This is everything
53:26You are everything
53:27Discord's out
53:32Conjaculations, queens
53:33And remember
53:34If you can't love yourself
53:35How in the hell are you gonna love somebody else?
53:37Can I get an amen up in here?
53:39Amen
53:39Alright, now let the music play
53:41Next time on RuPaul's Drag Race
53:43You need to use your improv skills
