11x11 - Bring Back My Queens!

[bunniefuu]

[RuPaul]
Previously on RuPaul's Drag Race...

You'll be performing
in your very own magic show.

[all cheering]

[screaming]

Wow.

I said ain't nothing...
no ketchup in here, baby.

[RuPaul] Shuga Cain.

You never quite landed those jokes.

-Oh.
-Vanjie.

You need to give us more
or else it's done.

[RuPaul] Nina West.

Your energy was so up,
it was great to watch.

Con-drag-ulations. You're the winner
of this week's challenge.

[applause]

Vanjie, shantay, you stay.

Shuga Cain, sashay away.

[Silky makes revving noise]

I'm a unicorn.

[A'keria] It's a rhino, mama.

Oh, wait a minute.
Did you call me a rhino?

[all laugh]

So Shuga's gone,

and I'm definitely saddened,
because Shuga's very talented

and she's a sweetheart
through and through.

"You all hold a very
special place in my heart.

Make Nana proud. Shuga."

We love you, Shug.

[Vanjie]
I'm still shook from the lip sync.

Child, I'm just... whoo.

Baby, when I tell you
all the words was speaking to me,

I was just making sure they knew
Miss Thing is out of the drama.

All right, you lip synced twice.

Uh... no more, Mary.

Wake up and smell the coffee.

You get a new opportunity.
Don't take it for granted.

[A'Keria]
So, Silk, how you feeling?

'Cause I know like
tonight was one of those nights

where they really added
some pressure on your back.

Like, you almost was gonna
have to lip sync.

[Silky] I guess that's what I have
to work on in this competition, right.

Did I do everything
I could have done in that moment?

But it's like I kinda accepted the defeat.

And that's what I'm kinda disappointed
in myself in right now.

Because, like, I'm a girl
that will fight to the very end.

After last week's roach critique

and this week's body critique,
I'm completely embarrassed,

my pride is bruised,
and it makes me feel like

I'm getting worse and worse
in this competition.

But, bitch, I cannot fold and crack
under this damn pressure.

I just can't give up.

-[Brooke Lynn] Nina, congrats.
-Oh, I feel f*cking great.

I feel so good.
And I had a lot of fun in this challenge.

I just want to soak up this win.
But I am not resting.

I have to bring everything
that's Nina and k*ll it.

Because everyone who is here right now
is absolutely gunning for top four.

And we've seen really
shocking things happen before.

No one is safe.

It's anybody's game at this point.

Oh, my God, ow.

b*tches better step our pussies up.

[RuPaul]
The winner of RuPaul's Drag Race

receives a one-year supply
of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics

and a cash prize of $100,000.

With extra-special guest judges
Lena Waithe and Wanda Sykes.

♪ RuPaul's Drag Race ♪

♪ May the best woman ♪

♪ Best woman win ♪

Y'all come on, b*tches.

Prance to the beat.

-Yeah.
-Come on.

-Walk faster, bitch. Damn.
-At this rate, it'll take forever.

Baby, it is a new day
and I'm feeling good.

Reset, reboot, and I'm leaving
behind the bottom two.

Mm.

So we at six.

How bad do y'all
want to be in that four?

-Desperately.
-Oh, my God.

I'm gonna show you how bad
I wanna be in the four.

-Uh-oh.
-Uh-oh.

[all laugh]

[alarm]

[RuPaul] Ooh, girl.

She done already done had herses.

My queens, as my play cousin
June Bug used to say,

"Sometimes the past can come back
and bite you in the ass."

So if you want to be
America's next drag superstar,

I sure hope you got
some extra padding, okurr?

[all exclaiming]

Wait a minute. They said
somebody from the past.

Hello, hello, hello.

Howdy, partner.

Ladies, if I could pass on
just one life lesson

to each and every single one of you,

when the going gets tough,
the tough gotta know

when it's time to fake
bitch-slap a mother tucker.

[all cheer]

So, for today's mini challenge,

I'm bringing back
a little game we call,

[imitates Cher]
"Slap Out Of It."

[all laugh]

But since I'm still in litigation

over allegedly slapping
a queen last season...

[all laugh]

You'll be fake-slapping each other.

-Oh.
-Oh.

[RuPaul] This is how it works.

You come up with some sassy lines
that inspires your fellow queens

to fake-slap the crap out of you.

And in the end, the queen with
the most compelling reaction wins.

-[cheers]
-All right, then.

I got this one.

First up, Nina West.
Assume the position.

All right, Dr. Ganache,
your patient is here.

[all laugh]

You big old chaperone-looking
grilled cheese m*therf*cker, you.

-I love grilled cheese.
-I bet.

[screams]

[all laugh]

You wanna hit people with trash cans?

You bot spiderville
beetle-looking, m*therf*cking...

[grunting]

[screams]

[all laugh]

Beep, beep, beep.

-I actually want you to do something.
-Oh... Yeah.

Get the hell out of Brooke's ass.
That's Vanjie's position now.

-Ahh!
-The shade.

[grunts]

Ooh!

This is fun.

[all laugh]

[Yvie]
I just know how easy this all is for you,

since you only got the same
f*cking character every time she--

So do you. You always play
an ugly Naomi Smalls.

Aah!

Wrong week, ho. Wrong week.

Can I get some baby powder?

Hold on.

I've been waiting to slap
your ass since week two.

-No!
-Aah!

-Oh, my goodness.

[groans]

It's so nice that you finally
gave Miss Celia her hair back.

I told you this bitch wouldn't say it.

You know, Ru, it's OK.
I'm gonna lead with love.

All right, all right.

Oh, you feel just like a water bed.

-[gasps]
-[all laugh]

[screams]

I think I speak for everybody

and really say that we all love
hearing your opinion.

Good, 'cause I've got plenty
where it came from.

[screams]

There's one you can take home.

I love your head.

It reminds me of my testicles
after two hours in the bath.

Oh, bitch.

Well, I'll give you a few hours
to soak into that.

[groans]

Your makeup looks like
a kindergarten art project.

[grunts]

[all laugh]

Are you skurred?

I wanted to talk about her toupee
and how she ain't got no edges to mesh.

-I ain't got no edges?
-Mm-mm.

-That's 'cause all of your--
-[screams]

-[laughs]
-Honey, oh, no.

-Oh, bitch, we taking something off--
-Oh, bitch, I ain't scared of you

or that little brillo pad
you got in your hand.

-You're still ugly as hell.
-Oh, shit.

You made your whole country proud
by completely terrorizing Celine Dion.

How's that make you feel?

[both laugh]

[groans]

Everything's a little easier in Canada.
That's what I'm feeling right now.

-Yeah.
-[laughs]

-What you got, bitch?
-I'm gonna show you a dancer's slap.

-[grunts]
-Ooh.

[all laugh]

Keep spinning, bitch,
right out of the competition.

I don't know a whole lot about
Canada or the people in it,

but judging by your
Snatch Game, neither do you.

-Ohh.
-[all laugh]

This feels wrong.
Am I allowed to slap a homeless person?

[gasps]

-I think it's OK.
-Thank you.

Oh!

She slapped the f*ck out of you.

I think you broke my jaw.

[laughs]

Game over.

All right.
Y'all some slap-happy queens.

[all laugh]

But one of you served
some major drama, mama.

Brooke Lynn Hytes.

Con-drag-ulations.

You've won nails and lashes
from Kiss USA.

Oh!

And a wig and styling package
from luxelab.

-Amazing.
-Glue not included.

[all laugh]

Ladies, you've all come so far.

But it's lonely at the top,
so I've arranged a playdate for you...

with some of my favorite queens.

[laughs]

Are you intrigued?

[all] Yes.

Hey, ladies!

[cheers and applause]

What the f*ck?

I really feel bamboozled.

Done brought all these old
stale-edge dry-ass b*tches back

with bad mugs and beards.

Like literally beards.

What are y'all doing here?

-Aah!
-Hey, cyst.

We're back, back, back.

Bitch, hold the f*ck up!

Why they brought these b*tches back?

I don't like games.

I don't play Uno, checkers,
f*cking Monopoly.

I don't know what's going on.

Last time they brought other girls
that were eliminated in,

it ended up scaring Vanjie.

I worry and I pray

that they're not gonna replace
some of us with some of them.

Ladies, welcome back
the eliminated queens:

Shuga Cain, Plastique Tiara,
Scarlet Envy, Ariel Versace.

Yes.

-Honey Davenport.
-What's good?

Oh.

-And Soju.
-This is crazy.

Now, for this week's maxi challenge,

you need to make over
one of the returning queens

and transform her into a member
of your own drag family.

#DragRace.

Now, to my top six queens,
let me be clear.

This is your challenge to win or lose.

The returning queens
are here for a makeover only.

They will not be returning
to the competition.

In fact, during crucial moments
of the makeover,

they'll have to wear
these stylish pink mittens

to assure all the work is yours.

May God help us.

[all laugh]

Now, Brooke Lynn,
you won the mini challenge,

so you get to pair up the queens.

So, first, who do you pick for yourself?

-I'm going to pick Plastique.
-Yay.

[A'Keria] I'm definitely not surprised
that Brooke picked Plastique,

because, I mean, it's an easy makeover.

Plastique's an easy canvas.

Which queen do you pick for Nina?

I'm gonna say Shuga Cain.

Wha!

[both laugh]

Which queen do you pick for Yvie?

I'm going to say Scarlet.

-Come ova.
-Hi.

My chemistry lady.

Which queen do you choose for A'Keria?

Honey.

-What's up?
-Hey, cousin.

That's right, Davenports...

It seems like Brooke Lynn
is trying to pair everybody up

with somebody that she thinks
would physically work out

or, you know, just have
a chemistry together.

And who do you pick for Silky?

Soju.

[A'Keria] But Silky and Soju?

Chicago queens.

Mm-mm. Mm-mm. Mm-mm.

Mama plays a very strategic game.

This might work out for you, Brooke.

[Brooke Lynn]
What is your face?

I'm smiling.

[all laugh]

[Soju]
You're not happy to see me?

I'm really happy to see you, girl.

Bitch, that quiet-ass,
shady-ass Brooke Lynn,

that bitch put me with Soju,
the bitch that went home first,

the bitch that came in week one
looking like Ronald McDonald.

You ain't gave me shit to work with.

Obviously, Brooke Lynn sees me
as a top competitor for her,

so that bitch trying
to get me out of here.

[RuPaul] That means Vanjie
will get Ariel Versace.

Just as I cyst-pected.

-Yay!
-[all laugh]

[RuPaul] Now, ladies, to help you create
a strong family resemblance,

you can use materials
from the F&S Fabrics wall,

Fierce! Drag Jewels, Rock Star Wigs,
and your own drags.

Ooh, this is gonna be fun.

Gentlemen, start your engines,
and may the best woman win.

Girl, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm happy I got you.

Well, yeah, hello.
How are you holding up?

Listen, the last few weeks
has been a fight.

It's getting down to the wire.
It's just a few of you.

Yeah. It's stressful.

If you have one stray hair
flying the wrong the way,

it could be the reason, you know--

Speaking of hair,
I hear some of my hair's gone.

-Right, what happened?
-Girl, I just left it by accident.

In the midst of things,
when I was eliminated,

I was like super, like,
emotional packing everything,

and I literally forgot
I had an entire rack of my wigs.

My wigs are like my babies.
And then when I got back home,

I realized, oh, my God,
I left a bunch of wigs.

They all thought you left hair
for real for them.

I left that red one for Silky,

and other than that,
those were all just by accident.

-Yeah.
-So, I'm sure that's going to be--

-There's been some drama about the hair.
-What happened with the hair?

-People were fighting over it.
-Are they all gone?

Yeah. I don't know where they are.

Yeah.

So, I guess some of these queens

thought that I left these wigs
behind for them.

I love that they all flock
to them like flies on shit,

but I want to know who the hell's
snatching up my damn wigs.

So, Lucy, they got some 'splaining to do.

It all... It's gonna be Bad Girls Club,
Season 11, hello.

Child, I need Ariel
to focus on the challenge,

'cause I need a win.

That's mine. That's definitely mine.

[Vanjie] She's looking
for her tumbleweeds

that done went into
somebody else's station,

and she's freaking the f*ck out.

Aah, Lord, can I catch a break?

Well, the Jersey will come out. Hello.

Oh, my God.

[Shuga]
Ariel, she's waiting to stir the pot.

Get ready, honey. It's about to blow up.

I love that.

This week's maxi challenge
is... makeover time.

We have to do one of these
eliminated girls in our drag style.

Who this man? Dammit!

-This is a full-on d*ck magnet, honey. Oh.
-[A'keria laughs]

So, I've got a really strong
concept for this.

-[Scarlet] OK.
-We're going to be actually

-from the same denim tribe.
-OK.

I like the idea of tribes and villages

more than I do
a traditional drag family.

It takes a village to raise a queen.

A lot of the other girls
are going to serve super-high glamour.

Uh-huh.

And even though I know you love
some super-high glamour--

I do love... glamour.

You're gonna have to tap
into the Odd-sizers.

Yeah, I can get weird.

These looks say the House of Oddly

in the way that they are
deconstructing a material.

[Scarlet] Gorg.

I love the beauty of things that look like
they're just falling off of you.

But the danger is I'm really just
going to have to fine-tune everything.

Yes, something magical.

-Yeah?
-Oh, ma'am, yeah.

That's the tee.

[contestant] Oh, my gosh.

Jesus.

She's back in the workroom.

-That's for sure.
-Hide your mirrors, girls.

What the f*ck is that?

-A winning look.
-[Shuga] Yes, bitch, you betta.

Yvie is, in her own odd way,
very high fashion.

I'm very confident in what Yvie and I
are going to bring as fashion girls.

Yvie and I are going to take this.

Somebody give her a mirror, darling.

Yeah, it ain't working for me.

But nice. E for effort.

I don't want you to look like half-assed.
I'd rather you look the prettiest.

I just need to excel, because I just came
fresh off the bottom again,

and haven't had this wow moment
since the talk show,

where the judges are like,
Miss Vanjie is here.

And I want that more than anything.

I have to take it in from
the bottom to bring it up.

[Ariel] Why don't you just put it
on the mannequin form?

[Vanjie] Because it's already darted,
but I need to bring it in more.

So, I'm tailoring it to her body.

I'm sewing it and making sure
I make this dress fit her like a glove.

I want to make sure I do good,
'cause I'm listening, believe it or not.

Oh, it fits you way better.

Oh, you brought my doughnuts.

Oh, yeah, I got them.

You know, I used these
to sit down when I had my cyst.

I was, like,
I could not sit on the hard...

so, I sat like this
because it was hurting so bad.

What's the first thing
this bitch wanna talk about?

Her g*dd*mn cyst.

I have a cyst.

I'm currently oozing.

Why did you bring it up on the runway?

Well, the judges were, like,
you're having a hard time.

And I was like, yeah, I kinda
am having a hard time.

Like, I'm literally leaking
as we're speaking.

Now, another thing
is I don't wear big shoes,

because I have tendonitis,
so, I can't wear high heels.

-What kind of heels you be wearing?
-I wear those, um, basic grandma heels.

But, you know, I just
call them sensible heels.

If my tendonitis are really,
really bad, then I wear flats.

Child, now she's talking about
she's got tendonitis.

The m*therf*cking challenge
is to put a drag queen,

excuse me, an experienced drag queen
in m*therf*cking drag.

Why do I feel like I'm about
to put somebody in drag

for the first m*therf*cking time
in their life?

I'm gonna see if we can get
a pair of shoes from this wall, honey.

I mean, I can try it.

You gonna learn today, honey,
because I ain't going home.

You're gonna learn
how to walk in heels today.

Oh, my God, I've never worn
heels like this high.

Oh, no.

Oh, my goodness.

Bitch, oh, hell--
Go back. Uh-uh.

You're walking like this, honey.

Girl, she had on jelly slippers
when she was on the runway.

Aah. Call me out.

Nobody could...
Nobody could see them.

I could not believe
you had on jelly slippers.

[laughs]
-[Soju] Oh, cyst.

She looks like a Teletubby
trying to strut for the first time.

I can't walk in heels like these.

[Vanjie] Wait, hold on. Wait, wait, wait.

What heels do you walk in, then?

I walk in, like, very small heels.

[Vanjie] Oh, my God.

There is no words
to describe the gag that I'm...

I'm at a state...
I've never been this gagged.

Girl! And I thought
it was going to be halfway easy

because we're making over drag
queens that already do this.

How you gonna come
on Drag Race and not--

and they weren't like...
they weren't like stilettos.

They were like
a regular six-inch heel.

Uh, uh, uh, uh.
[laughs]

-Oh.
-Yes.

Listen, that walk.

[laughs]

Can we be, like, you know, like street?

Bitch, get your baby shoes.
Let's see what you can do in those.

Yeah, girl, this is a setup.

Hey, twisted sisters.

-[all] Hey!
-It's a family reunion.

[cheers]

Question. Who brought
the potato salad?

-Oh.
-OK, good.

The Davenports are in the house.

How are you related?
You're Texas, you're New York.

Yes. Sahara Davenport
and Asia Davenport

both left and moved to New York City,
which is how I became a Davenport.

Well, how different
are the New York Davenports

from the Texas Davenports?

[Honey]
It's completely different.

It's definitely like more
of a pageant-y, pageant-y town.

New York, like,
while we have pageants,

it's more of a, like, fashion,
you know, kind of vibe.

She don't know nothing
about that Texas drag just yet.

I've gonna give her
a little A'Keria feel.

-Yeah.
-That Chanel La Bella feel.

OK. This is
another design challenge.

Your last design challenge
was not good for you.

[A'Keria] It was not.

Of course,
I've got to redeem myself.

I just want to make sure that I embody
what it is that I have to do this time,

because I want to make sure Honey
is a replica of A'Keria.

[RuPaul] Who do you think's
in trouble here?

Who do you think
is going to have a hard time

relaying their
family resemblance?

I'd probably have to say Silky.

I would say hers
would probably be a challenge,

because I know Soju
really doesn't walk in heels, number one.

And, also, I've never saw Silky
paint anybody else,

and, you know, mama kind of blind.

[all laugh]

Well, listen, I can't wait
to see the Davenports hit the runway.

Good luck,
and we'll see you out there.

-Thank you.
-All right.

Brooke Lynn and Plastique.

-Hi, Ru.
-Hi, Ru.

Why'd you pick Plastique?

Well, my walk on the runway
is something

that's very important to me
and my aesthetic.

And I knew she has a great walk,

and she's around my height
and around my build,

so, I knew costuming
would be a lot easier.

What is the family aesthetic?

We are pageant queens.

The walk, the look,
the elegance, the poise.

-Mm-hmm.
-That's a huge part

-of my family aesthetic.
-[RuPaul] Now, Brooke Lynn,

did you have a strategy
in pairing the other girls?

Not really. I was really looking
at the girls who had just come in

and the girls who were still here,

and kind of seeing
who would work well together.

Really, bitch?
I mean, Soju and Silky?

[laughs] Well...

What you mean to say is,
"Yeah, I'm a shady bitch."

[laughs] I'm not.

Honest, like,
Silky's a wonderful performer,

but I think in terms of looks,
I think putting her with anybody,

it would have been
a bit of a struggle for her.

-I'm a nice person.
-[RuPaul] All right.

Well, give one for Toronto.

-Thank you, Ru.
-Thanks.

Silky and Soju.

-Hi, Ru.
-Hey, baby.

[RuPaul] Both from Chicago.

Now, Silky, you won two challenges so far.
How are you going to make a third?

Ganache girls, we are a look queen
that moves around, honey.

OK.

So, I'm going to go to
what I love and enjoy, and that's disco.

-Ooh.
-We're gonna be two disco queens,

and give, like,
our personality, our charm.

I love that. Now, last week, you were read
because your padding was visible.

There were several many complaints
from the judges' table.

I know.

[Michelle]
Your jacket looked wrinkly.

You could see the outlines
of your hip pads.

Like, girl, we saw everything.

How you gonna avoid
that same mistake?

Um...

The first thing I did this morning
was went to my pads and I prayed.

And I said, "You're gonna work
for me this time, honey."

Well, the pads worked.

It was just that you didn't have enough
leggings on to covers up the ridges.

I, um, still got to figure
that out, honey.

-I've been doing it in--
-It's not rocket science, is it?

-I mean, everybody wears pads.
-[Silky] Right.

And we just wear enough tights
to smooth it out.

-OK.
-Uh, this--

I got more pads.

OK, so in hindsight,
the mistake was what?

My pads needed work,

and whether that's gonna be
to add more layers on

or to see if my pads inside
the thing was, like, just bumpy.

It's a lot of things--

Bitch, we could literally
see your pads on the runway.

I know!

And that was the first time
you have in this competition.

I...

You have no answer for me?
Really?

Girl, let me tell you.
This whole situation got me like frazzled.

Like, it just don't come to words.

In the great words
of a wonderful singer...

What singer?
Who are you gonna quote?

[Silky] Girl, I had the guy so frazzled,
I couldn't even get the lyrics out.

[all laugh]

In the fabulous words
of Bruno Mars,

"Don't believe me, just watch."

Huh.

Now, Brooke Lynn paired you with Soju.

Do you think she's being shady?
Do you think she was helping you out?

Um, you know what?

I am very glad
that she put me with Soju,

'cause I think
we both need redemption.

Redemption from week one,
redemption for my pads.

Yeah, yeah.

Y'all know I'm a church lady
and a pageant queen,

but, bitch, the true tee is,
Miss Brooke Lynn,

you done gave me m*therf*cking Soju,
the bitch that can't walk in heels,

still talking about
her m*therf*cking cyst,

when you know I'm gonna
struggle bust my damn self.

She done set me up.

All right. So I can't wait
to see you out there.

Strong family resemblance.

-Get it, girls.
-[Silky] Yeah.

-All right, see you later.
-[both] Thank you, Ru.

-Hi, Nina.
-Hi, Ru.

-Hi, Shuga.
-Hi, Ru.

-It seems like only yesterday...
-Right?

-...that you were here.
-I was saying the same thing.

-Nina, you won the challenge last week.
-I did.

How are you going
to keep that momentum going?

I'm just going
to continue to bring me,

and what a great challenge
to bring me to, right, as the House of.

Yeah. This is something
you do a lot of,

You have 17 children in your house?

-House of West, yeah.
-House of West.

My drag mother's Virginia West,
and I have a bunch of daughters.

What is the sort of creed
of the House of West

that we'll see on the main stage?

Yeah, our drag family
is really charitable,

and we're activists,
and that's the one thing

that I'm really holding true to
in this challenge.

So, I see a rainbow dress there.
Like, the rainbow flag.

The drag flag, and then the trans flag.

I really believe in lifting people up,

and I really believe in
celebrating all of us,

because the second
one of us is pulled down,

we're all pulled down.
-[RuPaul] Oh, I love it.

So can I see your outfit?
Let's see what you got there.

So mine is a corset, some shorts,
and some fabulous boot covers.

This is a little cute bodysuit
with the flag.

Let me see.
It's got the transgender flag.

And then it has
the boot covers as well.

And this is really reflective
of kind of who we are.

We're showgirls, and I'm
constantly inspired by theater.

This is like kind of a wink
to Kinky Boots,

but still something that's
very familiar to my world.

All right. Well, I can't wait
to see y'all on the runway.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

I love the message,

but do I feel like they look circus-y?

Mm.

Are they cute? Mm-mm.

[Soju] Your padding's
going to have to look right.

Oh, girl, trust me.
I'm gonna prove a point, honey.

That's one thing it will be,
right, honey.

[Soju] Is it true
that you paint with sharpies?

[Silky]
I do my eyebrows with a sharpie.

Are you going to do my eyebrows
with a sharpie?

[Silky] Yeah, sure.
Family resemblance, ho.

[all laugh]

You know, not every family
look the same.

[laughs]

Miss Soju, bitch,
now you ain't been here to know.

I done won a few challenges

and I got a lot of compliments
about my makeup.

So that's one thing that
you ain't got to worry about.

-I use my natural brows.
-I know.

You gonna get
a little sharpie on them.

-OK.
-[laughs]

[Vanjie] You better
count your blessings

and hope that Silky don't put
no sharpie on your lips, too,

'cause you know she do that, too.

[Soju]
You do not put sharpie on your lips.

[Vanjie]
Yes, girl, yes, ma'am, honey.

Wait. Does it erase
off your lips?

-Do I got it on my lips now?
-Do you do it every time?

Every time.

[laughs]
Every time.

And she's saying
like it ain't nothing.

Like, yes, girl, what you mean?

Like, girl,
you offended her, eh?

Good God.

How dare you, Miss Soju,
question my skills

because I use a permanent marker?

I can beat a mug.

Even when I'm at home, bitch,
I make some ho's beautiful.

I mean, like, ho's that look
like Wesley Snipes,

like John C. Reilly,

ho's that look like Lil Wayne,

and I make them ho's
look beautiful.

It's an honor that I put makeup
on your face any day.

[Vanjie] Girl, you're gonna have
a lot of cyst-tivity going on?

[all laugh]

All I'm gonna say is, bitch,
take care of you.

You come first, cyst.

[all laugh]

Question.
When you walked in the room,

is there anyone that you were
surprised was still here?

Silky.

-Really?
-Oh, yeah.

Her personality is good enough
to get on the show,

but I think that she's honestly
just in over her head.

[Nina] Anyone else
you were surprised by?

-Vanjie, kind of.
-Really?

I mean, when Michelle told her,

"I know what you're gonna
wear on this runway

before you even
come out on the runway,"

I don't know
how you come back from that.

So, Miss Scarlet has some
opinions about Vanjie and Silky.

Well, girl, what's the tee, Christine?

Yeah, those are the two.

And I honestly think that
those are the two to next go.

But y'all know me.
I'm gonna call her out.

-Go, go, go, go, go, go.
-Come on, cysts.

-Hold my mitten.
-Come on, cyst.

Guess what we're doing today?
Makeovers.

We gotta drag up the eliminated ho's
in our own drag styles.

-Are you excited?
-I am excited.

I can't wait to be a Hytes.

Not only do we have
to make over these girls,

but they can't touch themselves.

I'm so nervous.
Make me a woman.

I ain't no magician.

-[laugh]
-You can do it.

[Brooke Lynn]
They can't do their makeup.

They can't touch their hair.

Whatever we give them
is what they get.

My face is going to be
bruised up by the end of this.

All right, ladies and gents,
boys and girls.

I have a question.

[Yvie] Uh-oh.

Y'all know I'm the girl
that likes to clear the air.

What was said about
the whole wig situation?

[Ariel] Oh, God, the wigs.

Oh, it's about to be some shit.
And I'm not in it, thank God.

[Silky]
So what's that tee?

You guys took all of
Ariel's wigs after she left?

Now, bitch, you've been gone
from the very beginning.

How you know all the tee?

[all laugh]

-What were you told?
-[Soju] That Ariel left a lot of wigs.

-[A'keria] Uh-huh.
-[Soju] And it wasn't meant

-for everyone to take it.
-Am I clearing out the wig bullshit?

Sure, you might as well,
since it's your wigs, baby. Go ahead.

Well, all right. So, when I was packing,

I left those wigs
all on that shelf by accident.

And the only wig
that was actually left behind

was that big old red wig for Silky.

-Uh-huh.
-[Ariel] And that was it.

But I heard there was
a lot of shit, like--

-[Vanjie] Did you leave some for--
-Oh, this is for me.

[Vanjie] Did you leave some
for your best friend?

'Cause after we took the wigs,

Plastique said that
the wigs were left for her

because y'all were best friends.

She put all that hair at my station.

-[Silky] Did she write you a note?
-No.

But we were best friends.

So we were trying
to get to the bottom of that

and see what was actually the truth
with that whole situation.

We squashed this. I made a comment.

-Apparently, we didn't all squash it.
-Because I did not care.

But it was brought up yesterday again,

even though if it was squashed.
That was the thing.

So, that's why I'm clearing the air now

that the actual horses
are in the building.

But, guys, the wigs--

[A'Keria] So, Ariel,
are y'all best friends,

and did you leave the wigs for her?

I mean, obviously, I consider myself
closest here with Plastique.

-We bonded a lot.
-[A'keria] OK.

But the wigs were left behind
by accident.

But I just want to know
where the f*ck they all are,

because I don't see any of 'em.

OK, well, your black wig
and your purple wig

is right there at my station.

No, no, no. I don't care
about the purple wig.

I know that Miss Ra'Jah
left with a bunch of them.

Only wig I knew Ra'Jah had
was the big purple crinkly one.

[Ariel] That's what I'm pissed off about.

All of a sudden, it's OK.
She really just wants one wig,

and it just so happens
to be from the person

who is not in the workroom,
Miss Ra'Jah.

[Silky] But, Ariel, I make it known.

I did grab one or two more
because they was there.

Ariel's silent as a f*cking mouse.

So, all that huffing and puffing,

and now it's all,
like, a misunderstanding.

[Shuga] I did feel like, Ariel, you were
a little more mad about it yesterday

-than you are right now.
-[Soju] That's what I was

going to say, too. Ariel was pissed,
and now she's very calm.

[laughs]

Yeah, legit, you were saying like,
I'm getting in there and pop off,

and then you ain't really
pop off just now.

OK, well, it's not like
the wigs are $5.00,

so I f*cking want
the wigs back, obviously.

[A'Keria]
So, now as I'm addressing it,

she's backpedaling and p*ssy popping
all over the place.

Say what you mean, mama,
and mean what you say.

-I got another question.
-Oh, God.

I heard yesterday
that Scarlet was surprised

Vanjie and Silky were still here
in this competition. Is that true?

That is true.

And what were you surprised about?

Now, before I read your eyeballs out,
go ahead and tell me why.

Especially with Silky.
Come on, crew.

-Well, um...
-Well?

Why, Miss Scarlet, you got
my m*therf*cking name in your mouth?

The world wants to know
at this point.

Because you've had the most
assistance from the other girls.

You got to clear that up for me, honey.

Because in this competition,
as people have helped me,

I have helped
every bitch in here, too.

So what do you mean by that?

-It's the top six, and I feel like--
-But, girl, don't go around the issue.

What have I had assistance with?

Because I want to say
one thing to everybody.

I have been nice
to every bitch up in here.

And for y'all to run my name
through the mud,

I have done mostly everything
for myself, so clear the air.

Well, I do think that your runways
are held to a different standard.

Bitch, your runways look worse
than mine, so clear the air.

You guys act like if somebody has
a negative opinion about you,

it means they g*dd*mn hate you,
and that's not the tee.

Scarlet, I would never say this,

but, you know,
you came for me a little bit,

so I will say that
you should have went home

the first time you lip synced
in that six-way.

[Silky] You should have.

[Vanjie] Because I don't know
how you're gonna come to Drag Race

and think you're gonna survive a lip sync
without knowing how to move.

Yeah, I'm going tit fo' tat.

At this point in the competition,
the last thing I need

is for people to be kicking me
while I'm down.

So you gonna come for me,
I'm gonna come for you a little bit, too.

[Silky] This is my thing.

To come back here in this time
is a privilege and an honor.

Had I come back, I wouldn't have said
a damn thing negative to any of you all.

Bitch, you literally just talked about

how you thought Scarlet
should have been home

-after the first f*cking dance.
-That's my opinion.

-Exactly. Exactly.
-And that's her opinion.

You need to stop taking
everything so personally.

Well, I take that shit personal,

because when you say
everybody's helped me, how, Mary?

All my shit is right here.
None of this shit is borrowed.

Most of it I made.
So how did people help me?

Silky, you have been getting
a lot of help throughout the competition.

But how?

You and the rest of your dream girls
have all been there for each other's back.

So has Nina.
Nina's been getting help.

[Yvie] It's the truth.

Silky has had the help
of the dream girls all season.

And I'm not saying it's a bad thing
to have help from your sisters,

but Scarlet's not wrong in saying

that Silky hasn't done
all of this by herself.

This bitch can't even say what
anybody has ever done for me.

Bitch.

[Silky] Say what somebody
has done for me

in this competition other than them.

OK, your hair.

Your hair, for starters.

You went to half of the girls
for sewing this and sewing that.

That is not true.
I sew everything of my own.

Yeah, we have the dream girls.

But what they give me
more so than anything is emotional support

for b*tches like that
who say shit about me.

Shit.

[Shuga] Y'all are crazy. You'll be
fighting this to the death, honey.

It's just an opinion, girl.

You can't get so pressed about it.

And I just answered the question.

No, you just got super salty
'cause a bitch put your name out.

I did.

Look, everyone has opinions.
Scarlet had an opinion.

Why are you offended, and why
you jumping down her throat?

g*dd*mn.

Scarlet's just hating.

That's it, that's all.

Y'all look like some
salty Maltese up in here.

Well, I'm a salty malty today.

Well, I'll be a salty malty,
so you can be a pressed panini.

Opinions are like assholes,
you know.

Most of them are on my face.

[Vanjie laughs]

[RuPaul laughs]

♪ Cover girl
put the bass in your walk ♪

♪ Head to toe
let your whole body talk ♪

[RuPaul] And what?

Welcome to the main stage
of RuPaul's Drag Race.

Michelle Visage, six of
the eliminated queens are back.

Security.

[all laugh]

And the hilarious Ross Mathews.

Now, what's different about you today?

Oh, you noticed.
Michelle did my makeup.

[laughs]

Emmy-winning actress,
producer, and writer, Lena Waithe.

I hear you're a Drag Race superfan.

Oh, yes, honey,
and, bitch, I'm from Chicago.

[all laugh]

But, no, seriously,
I actually am from Chicago.

Emmy-award winning actress,
comedian, and writer, Wanda Sykes.

Girl, I have loved you
since Pootie Tang.

Well, I didn't know you smoked weed.

[all laugh]

Now, how is your
Oh, Well tour going?

-Oh, well.
-[laughs]

Now, this week,
we challenged our queens

to make over their twisted sisters.

And tonight on the runway,
category is Drag Family Values.

Gentlemen, start your engines,
and may the best woman win.

♪ We got a mighty love ♪

[RuPaul] First up,
Yvie Oddly and Scarlet Envy.

Oh, my God, this place
is crawling with drag queens.

[Ross] Clearly they're sisters.
They have the same jeans.

[all laugh]

[Lena]
Occidental fingernails.

[Wanda] I just remembered.
I gotta get my car washed.

[all laugh]

[Yvie]
The outfit Scarlet is wearing

is actually the first outfit
I've ever made.

And then I'm modeling
a more recent redo of it

because I want to show the judges
I can do some elevation.

And these wigs are literally

every pair of jeans I had, so...
[laughs]

Scarlet is really selling this fantasy.

She's got my denim back
like she's my real denim sister.

This is as odd as it gets.

[laughs]

[evil laugh]

[both laugh]

That was LOL.

[all laugh]

[Ross]
You know, this is the same designer

who made Justin Timberlake
and Britney Spears' outfit.

-Yes.
-Yeah.

[RuPaul laughs]

Up next,
Nina West and Shuga Cain.

[Michelle]
The Insane Drag Posse.

[all laugh]

-[Wanda] It's like Skittles and Chiclets.
-[all laugh]

[RuPaul] You know,
these outfits fit them to an LGBT.

[all laugh]

[Nina] I really wanted
to use this runway walk

as our very own pride parade.

These outfits are quintessential Nina.

They're inspired
by Kinky Boots from Broadway,

so they're very fun,
but there's also a message behind it.

And Shuga is making me so proud.

She's doing her best
Nina West impression,

which is really amazing.
She's serving and turning on the runway.

[Lena]
I love a gay superhero.

-[Michelle] Amen.
-[Lena] Come on, Kay.

[Wanda]
When the twins disappear.

[all laugh]

[RuPaul] Next, A'Keria C. Davenport
and her sis, Honey Davenport.

[Michelle]
Yellow and orange make fabulous.

[Ross] Gorg.

[Lena]
Melon-ated Marilyn Monroe.

[A'Keria] I'm giving you very
Davenport-style high fashion eleganza.

I'm wearing a keyhole with the jewels
that sit almost to my breast,

and my sister Honey, she has on
a little old piece of ruffle

covering up all those man muscles.

And of course, gotta have on
some Texas hair, baby.

This makeover is definitely a success
We know we the tee, baby.

[RuPaul] The Landers sisters
are still going strong.

[Wanda]
So slow, though.

Like The Real Housewives of Molasses.

[all laugh]

[RuPaul] Up next, Dr. Reverend
Silky Nutmeg Ganache,

and her sister Soju.

[Lena] Studio 69.

[all laugh]

[RuPaul] Remember when Nell Carter
was on The Cher Show?

-[Michelle] Yes.
-[all laugh]

My favorite episode.

[Silky] The Ganache family
is going to the disco.

I have my sister, Miss Soju,

wearing a full bodysuit
that shows all her curves.

Her bell bottoms are pointed
to show a little bit more character,

and so you can get a sneak peek

that that bitch is actually
wearing heels, baby.

[RuPaul]
All right, sister Soju.

[all laugh]

[Silky] And I'm wearing a jumpsuit

with my bell bottoms
on the sleeves, honey.

I got a little belt to give you
a little more shape,

a little bit more curve.

We on this runway showing shape
and eating grapes, honey.

And we're waiting on the after party.

The pads are messy again.

[Lena]
Cagney and Lacey.

[Ross] Gag-me and Lacey.

[all laugh]

[RuPaul] Vanessa Vanjie Mateo
and Ariel Versace.

-[Michelle] Ooh.
-[Lena] There's a reveal.

[RuPaul] Two little girls
from Glitter Rock.

[all laugh]

[Ross] I feel awful.
I can never remember.

Which one's Tia, which one's Tamera?

[all laugh]

[Vanjie] Tonight on the menu
is the Mateo Vanjie takeover.

Me and Ariel are pumping down
the runway Miss Vanjie style.

Looking disco extra-greasy shortening.

Blonde waved hair, bombshells down
with a good old breast sequin.

Very sparkle, bling, bling.

We got disco pants on me,
a beautiful gown on Ariel.

I'm looking sickening,
she's looking fierce,

and I'm living for it.

[both] Miss Vanjie.

-Miss Vanjie.
-Uh-huh.

[both] Miss Vanjie.

[all laugh]

[RuPaul] Brooke Lynn Hytes
and Plastique Tiara.

[Michelle] Whatever they have,
I think it's spreading.

[all laugh]

[Lena]
Somebody call the gardener.

[all laugh]

[Michelle]
Some bushes need to be whacked.

[all laugh]

[Brooke Lynn] This week,
the Hytes family legacy

is being carried on
with my new drag sister, Harlem Hytes.

We are serving you
classic Hytes pageant glamour,

with a lovely velvet gown
with sequin appliques,

1940s movie star hair, looking unbothered
sauntering down the runway.

The concept is very, like,
pageant-y evening gown walk

with floating and some dance.

I just wanted to be very
graceful and beautiful.

[laughs]

[Brooke Lynn] I taught Plastique a couple
Hytes evening gown moves:

kick the train,
you do a little rond de jambe

and the train kind of
flows in front of you.

I want her to take her time

to just really move her hips
and let the light bathe you.

Alyssa Edwards better watch out.
She might have a daughter jumping ship.

[Lena]
There she is, Miss America.

[Ross] I just feel bad
for the ugly sister.

[all laugh]

[RuPaul] Welcome, ladies.

It's time for the judges' critiques.

First up, Yvie Oddly.

I thought it was really fun
when you guys came out.

Obviously, you guys are rock stars.

I thought the look
was really great, you know,

feeling a bit of an Ursula denim
situation happening,

and I loved watching you guys.

What I'm struggling with
is the construction of this.

It's almost chic in
a futuristic almost kinda way,

but it just looks a little crafty.

[Wanda]
I mean, I buy that you're sisters,

except that it's like the little sister
trying to tag along.

And you're giving her
your scraps of your scraps.

This is the best that
my sisters have ever gotten.

-[all laugh]
-Right, right.

Up next, Nina West.

-Hi, Shuga.
-Hi, Ru.

Well, look, I know all about
wearing a rainbow, OK.

[laughs] Yes, Met Ball.

I wear my pride on my sleeve a lot,

so I appreciated
you guys did that tonight.

You know, we have the rainbow
and you have the trans flag,

but really we're sisters.
So, I got the message, and I loved it.

But I feel like Shuga's lost in this.

The hairdo, mm... mm.
And Shuga's makeup.

I just know
how beautiful Shuga is and...

-OK.
-You know.

And I can imagine how hard it was
for all of you queens

to have another queen do your face
when you can't do a thing.

Unfortunately, Shuga,
it's almost bordering on clowny.

And you're...
Fashion should say something,

and you're certainly saying something
on the runway tonight.

The issue is this.

These look like costumes
for a pride parade,

not fashiony for a runway.

There's just certain boxes
you have to check in this challenge.

Up next, A'Keria C. Davenport
and her sister, Honey.

-Hey.
-I buy that you're sisters.

It's very pageantry in
a Vanessa Williams kind of way.

[laughing]

The hair's the same color,
styled similarly, but different.

You painted her beautifully,
and I like what you did with the keyhole.

I have an affinity for it.

There's just a lot that's simple
but effective here.

And I love this kind of pageant drag.

You're not reinventing the wheel
with this,

but sometimes the wheel's
just fine as it is.

Up next, the Dr. Reverend
Silky Nutmeg Ganache and Soju.

-Hi, Soju.
-Hi.

I missed you.

I have to ask you, how is the cyst?

Haven't had any complaint, Ross.

-Haven't had any complaints.
-[all laugh]

I thought you guys were a lot of fun.
I really liked the '70s of it all.

That's my favorite era.

But I do think there's
something about the costuming

that felt a little bit too Halloween.

[Wanda] I agree with Lena.

I mean, it was more of a theme
instead of sisters.

It's like somebody threw
Sonny and Cher in a blender

and threw in a Jackson Five,
and this is what, you know, what we have.

I made all of this.

Probably the only queen
that made both looks.

I just wanted to showcase Soju.

Soju was the first one to go home,

and I wanted her to come out
in a different light

and to be beautiful.

But I'm going to call you out again,
Silky,

'cause your makeup is gorgeous,
Soju's a little rough.

That cheek is very heavy.

Looks like it was blended with a Dremel.

And I see issues with your padding again
in the back.

Also, I didn't feel like
I was looking at the Silky

I've come to know and love.

It felt like you kept,
like, looking over at Soju

and being like, "Oh, that's right,
I'm supposed to go like this now."

You felt a little lost to me.

I know that I can go like at a thousand

-and leave my partner behind.
-Uh-huh.

And so tonight I wanted to bring it down
a few notches.

But, unfortunately,
I guess I brought it down too much.

Up next, Miss Vanjie
and her sister, Ariel Versace.

You made me so proud tonight.

-Ariel...
-Hi.

She absolutely looks like your sister.

She looks better than me.
I was, like...

[laughs] She took a lot of time
to, like, really

tailor this dress in to,
like, perfectly fit me

and put a lot of detail into everything.

I didn't pay her to say that, either.

Y'all came out and dropped those coats,
and it was just stunning.

Truly. It was very
Beyoncé-esque. It was good.

And what I love about this
is how well ex*cuted it is.

It's so smart to put
one of you in a dress

and one of you in pants.

It's so good.

I just really wanted
to make you guys proud.

It was getting frustrating.

Congrats, Vanjie.

Up next, it's Brooke Lynn Hytes
and her sister, Plastique.

Silky, this is a great example.

So, we have an Asian sister,
and though we're not twins,

you can tell there's
a family resemblance.

And what I also liked
about the performance tonight,

you told a story out there.

When Plastique
stepped in front of you

and there was a look...
No, no, no.

It was so funny.

[Lena] It was so classic.

It was so beautifully done.
It was fantastic.

You took my breath away
when you guys walked out.

[Brooke Lynn] Sorry.

I'm just really happy
the story came across,

'cause this was kind of
a love letter to my drag mother,

because she taught me
everything I know,

and she's the reason I'm here today.

So it just really means
a lot to me that you got it.

So, thank you.

Whoo.

All right, ladies.
One more question.

Who should go home tonight...

and why?

Start with Yvie Oddly.

Silky is the one girl who's gotten
the same critiques a few times,

and hasn't ever polished out the things
that you want to see from her.

Scarlet Envy.

Well, it came out
in the workroom today,

so Silky knows, I guess, already.

Nina West.

Based on her critique tonight,
I'm going to have to say Yvie Oddly.

-Shuga.
-Unfortunately, Silky.

Just because the critiques
that you've given her

you've given her before,
and today was an opportunity

for her to really pay attention
to those and execute,

and it didn't happen.

-A'Keria.
-I'm gonna have to say Yvie,

and that's based on overall growth.

At this point
it should be only elevation.

Honey Davenport.

Silky's outfit was the least
polished on the runway tonight.

-Silky.
-I would choose Yvie.

As America's next drag superstar,
you have to be kind to people,

and she has not been
the most kind or the most nice.

-Soju.
-I would also have to Yvie,

because I don't think her drag

is on the level
of everyone else in the top six.

Vanjie.

Based on tonight,
I would say Yvie.

Just because I feel like she kind of
left her sister a little behind.

-Ariel.
-I would also have to say Silky,

just based off the critiques.

-Brooke Lynn.
-I would have to say Silky.

I just didn't think
the look was finished,

and I just don't think there
was a great family resemblance.

Plastique.

I agree.
Silky just fell short.

Thank you
for your honesty, ladies.

Now, while you untuck backstage,
the judges and I will deliberate.

All right, now just between
us squirrel friends,

what do you think?

Let's start with Yvie Oddly.

Yvie is an original.

That is the toughest thing
to do in show business.

-Don't I know it.
-[laughs]

And when I look at this outfit
from way back here,

I go, yeah,
that's an Yvie Oddly look.

The problem is
when you get a little close.

[laughs]

It looks like she put
a lot of time in her outfit,

well, I mean, the scraps.

But she put some time into 'em.

But it's just like some
hand-me-down for her sister

and told her to just
bring a pair of shoes.

[Michelle]
Crystal shoes with that

was not as good
as the denim shoe with that,

which seems like little,
but at this point, it's not.

[RuPaul] Up next, Nina West.

I love a rainbow look,
but it can be hit or miss.

[Michelle] I mean,
she was wearing bike shorts.

[chuckles]

That she used her time
on this runway

to make that kind of statement
is gorgeous.

Unfortunately, the outfits weren't.

And whilst I appreciate so greatly

the rainbow flag and the trans flag
coming together as a statement,

at the end of the day,

this is a drag family
resemblance challenge,

and there was no resemblance.

[RuPaul]
A'Keria C. Davenport.

Those two sold it,
and they looked beautiful.

I think it kept true to a Davenport.

They got it right.

[RuPaul] The color scheme was beautiful.

They looked like
they were from the same house.

In fact, I think Honey
has never looked better.

That's really not Honey's style.

She's a New York sort of edgy queen.

I told them
they didn't reinvent the wheel,

but there's nothing wrong
with the wheel.

You know, it's round, it works.

You know,
if it ain't broke--

-Put a wig on it.
-Exactly.

[all laugh]

The Dr. Reverend
Silky Nutmeg Ganache.

I think we should call Issa Rae,

because that whole thing
was a little insecure for me.

[all laugh]

I didn't like that she tried
to use Soju as an excuse.

She said, well, I had to
bring it down to help Soju out.

She didn't need to do that.
Soju's red hot.

Nope, sorry, that's her cyst.
[laughs]

Tonight, Silky had some issues.

She was looking a bit lumpy.

The outfits were a bit tattered,

and I felt like there was
no family resemblance.

These were two girlfriends
going out to a disco.

I love Silky. I think she has what
it takes to get to the finish line.

I just hope she's not running out of gas,
'cause it kind of feels that way.

[RuPaul] Miss Vanjie.

I think they just came out
with such confidence and swag

that we were immediately won over.

[Wanda] They were
just gorgeous, stunning.

I bought the whole thing.

Loved the whole
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes look

that Marilyn and Jane Russell had.

[Michelle]
Everything was on point.

The way they were walking.

The way that she did Ariel
was beautiful.

[Ross]
I warned all the queens

use every tool in your toolbelt
before it's too late,

and Vanjie this week,

she pulled out a hammer
and a wrench and a screwdriver,

and that's all the tools I know.

-So proud of you.
-Yes, thank you.

[all laugh]

But she did it.

[RuPaul] Brooke Lynn Hytes.

Listen, what they did tonight
was classic Brooke Lynn,

and it worked.

There's no edge
to what she's bringing,

which is the one thing

that I'm sort of missing
from Brooke Lynn.

But what she does
is so well done.

You can't deny it.

And I really liked
the story behind it.

There was meaning to it.

She didn't just pull something
out of her ass.

She really wanted
to tell a story.

Well, I mean, she really is
pulling something out of her ass.

Oh, that's true.

-[all laugh]
-Hey-oh.

All right. Silence.

I've made my decision.

Bring back my girls.

[Michelle laughs]

[RuPaul] Welcome back, ladies.

I've made some decisions.

A'Keria, tonight you did
the Davenport family proud.

You're safe.

Thank you.

-Yay.
-You're my winner, boo.

[RuPaul] Miss Vanjie.

Welcome back to the competition.

Thank you.

You're safe.

[gasps]

-I thought she was gonna win.
-Me, too.

I thought
she was gonna win, too.

[RuPaul] Brooke Lynn Hytes.

Tonight, you gave us
two sophisticated ladies.

Yes.

Con-drag-ulations. You're the winner
of this week's challenge.

Yes, bitch, work.

You've won a trip to Aruba,
including airfare and a five-night stay

at the Aruba Marriott Resort
and Stellaris Casino.

Come on, Aruba.
We're going to Aruba.

Ah-ah-ah.

-Vanjie, we're going on vacation.
-Oh, yes.

And Plastique receives
a $2,000 gift card

from Klein, Epstein & Parker.

-Yes!
-[cheers and applause]

Suits made to measure.

Come on, new suits.

[applause]

Silky, we love your soul sister,

but this week,
you dropped the disco ball.

Nina, you wear your pride
on your sleeve,

but the judges weren't feeling
your rainbow connection.

[sighs]

Yvie, being odd is in your jeans,

but your denim drag gave us the blues.

Yvie Oddly...

You're safe.

-Yes!
-[cheers]

-You may join the other girls.
-Thank you.

[RuPaul] Nina, Silky,
I'm sorry, my dears,

but you are both up for elimination.

I'm fighting. I want to be here.
I want to make the five.

I will not give up on this.

-Has Nina lip synced yet?
-No.

-Neither one of them have.
-And Silky hasn't lip synced, either.

-First time for both of them.
-Neither of them.

[RuPaul]
Two queens stand before me.

Ladies, this is your last chance
to impress me

and save yourself from elimination.

The time has come...
[thunder]

for you to lip sync...

for your life!

This big body can get really high,
it can get really low,

it can split, deal,
so I ain't worried for me.

The bitch might as well pack
before I even get started.

Good luck, and don't f*ck it up.

-[contestant] Ooh.
-[Shuga] Yes, Miss Nina.

-Yes, Silky.
-[Vanjie] Come on, girl.

Ladies, I've made my decision.

Meh.

Silky Nutmeg Ganache...

shantay, you stay.

I'm not a mess and I'm not a roach.

This is just who I am,
and I'm gonna improve this.

And I promise you, you will know it.

I promise you that.
God knows my destiny.

Thank you.

[RuPaul] Nina West.

You, my dear,

Now, sashay away.

Thank you.

[applause]

[Vanjie] We love you.

Adventure is out there.

Go big. Be kind.

f*cking go West.

Thank you so very much.

[applause]

I'm disappointed that I'm going home,

but I totally understand the critiques.

I think they understood my message.

It just wasn't fashion,
and I totally get that.

I might not have the perfect makeup,

and I might not have
the most fashion-ready runways,

but I definitely showed me,
and I'm so proud of that.

I'm really so excited
for the adventure that awaits me.

Con-drag-ulations, my top five queens.

And remember, if you can't love yourself,

how in the hell
you gonna love somebody else?

Can I get an amen up in here?

-Amen.
-All right. Now let the music play.
