- Previously on

Rupaul's Drag Race...

You'll be creating kidster

television shows.

- I am ready

to toss your salad.

- I like a cheesy salad.

- Vivienne, if you can bring

your energy up to meet Roxxxy...

- You're gettin' lost.

- It was pure hell.

Fuck you, Alyssa.

- Coco is always the victim.

- You committed

the number-one crime.

You bored me.

- Detox, condragulations,

you are the winner

of this week's challenge.

Coco Montrese, shante, you stay.

Monica, sashay away.

- Monica Beverly Hillz.

- We're back in the workroom,

and Monica got sent home.

- I would have been incredibly

sad if Coco would have left.

I mean, she is my most closest

friend here.

I'm not going to be a yin yang

without my yin.

- So what was it like, girl?

- It taught me a big lesson

that, you know,

in this competition,

you have to focus

and concentrate

on what you're doing.

- Right.

- I haven't been focused.

In the whole competition,

Alyssa has been

a distraction for me.

I've got to shake this off

and move on.

- Vivienne, were you scared?

'Cause when you turned around,

Vivienne's face was like...

- I wanted to fucking throw up.

Are you kidding me?

I thought I was going to pull

a Willam.

I was so fucking scared.

You don't even know.

- Vivienne's critique

was basically

that she played little,

and I overshadowed her

in our scene.

She knows that she didn't shine

last week,

so she's got to shine

this week and pull through.

- At first, we were working

really well together,

and our script

was really good,

but once you get there...

At this point, I'm pissed.

I really felt like Roxxxy

overpowered me.

I think that she's

an attention whore.

- Oh, oh, my...ah!

Oh, my god.

- I personally think

that she's annoying.

I'm going to be honest.

I'd like to see Roxxxy go home.

[siren wailing]

- Ooh.

[cheers and applause]

What's happenin'?

[cheers and applause]

For today's mini challenge,

I want to turn back time

and find out

who are the best dancers

at Rupaul's Drag Race.

all: Oh.

- It is time to bust some

classic moves with

a good, old-fashioned Soul Train

dance-off.

[cheers and applause]

Ready, set, wig out.

- Oh.

- [laughs]

- This is going to be too much

fish for your nerves.

- Ooh, y'all don't want it.

- [laughs]

- All right, D.J., hit it.

[Rupaul's Jealous of my Boogie]

Coco Montrese.

- * Hey, D.J. *

- Yeah.

- * Love the way I lose *

* My inhibitions *

* When you stare *

- Ooh.

Lineysha Sparx.

Burn, baby, burn.

Jade Jolie.

Hey.

- Whoo!

- Get it, girl.

Yeah.

Alaska.

Ooh, you a stone gas, honey.

- I'm featuring

the Flailing Chicken...

not really a Funky Chicken,

more like a chicken

that smells funky.

- Roxxxy Andrews.

[laughs]

- Ooh.

- Yeah.

[laughs]

Honey Mahogany.

Get it, girl, yeah.

- Ow!

- That's right.

Show them what you

are working with.

- Honey dances like

a white chick.

[laughs]

- Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.

- Whoo!

- That was interesting.

- Detox.

That's right.

- Oh.

- Ooh.

[laughs]

She's a super freak.

Ooh!

Vivienne Pinay.

- Go, Viv.

Go, Viv.

- Hey, that's right.

Ivy Winters.

Make that money.

- Ivy doesn't have one stitch

of rhythm in that body.

This is not for you.

- Jinkx Monsoon.

Oh, my fur.

Hey.

Oh, get it, girl.

Whoo-hoo!

[laughs]

No parking on the dance floor.

Alyssa Edwards.

Yeah, shake your groove thing.

- Get it.

- Whoo.

Yeah, turn it up.

Ooh, you're giving those

Andrew Christian undies

a workout.

- Come on.

Ooh!

- Look at those

matching outfits.

- Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

[cheers and applause]

- All right, ladies.

The late, great Don Cornelius

would be proud,

but two of you

really brought the funk.

The winners are...

Jinkx Monsoon...

[cheers and applause]

And Coco Montrese.

[cheers and applause]

All right, ladies, for this

week's main challenge,

you'll be debuting

an original

American drag ballet.

- Yeah.

- It's called No Rupaulogies.

[laughter]

- Oh, my god.

- And it tracks the highs and

lows of my illustrious career.

Think of it as the black

Swan Lake.

Why it gotta be black?

[laughter]

- Hallelujah, thank the Ru gods

for sending a challenge my way

that I could excel in.

This is what I do.

I'm a dancer.

- Now, Jinkx and Coco,

you won the mini challenge,

so you're team captains.

All right, Coco, you pick first.

- Alyssa Edwards.

[record scratches]

- What the fuck?

- Well, well, well, I would

have never expected that.

- I'm not no dummy, y'all.

Alyssa is the best dancer,

and she's going to be

on my team.

- Hi, Jinkx.

You go next.

- Ivy Winters.

- [laughing]

- Detox.

- [laughs]

- Lineysha.

- Lineysha.

- Honey Mahogany.

- Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

- A-loose-ka.

- [laughs]

- Oh, wow.

All right, Coco.

- God, Jade is never going to

forgive me for this.

Roxxxy Andrews.

- Whoo.

- In the back of my mind,

I kind of felt that I would be

one of the first people

that she would choose.

It kind of was like a slap

to my face,

because we have been so close.

- All right, now, Vivienne

and Jade remain.

Jinkx, who do you pick?

- Jade Jolie.

- Jade Jolie goes to

Jinkx's team,

which leaves

Vivienne Pinay to Coco's team.

- Great.

I find myself again in a team

with a bunch of loudmouths.

- Now, remember, this week...

actions speak louder than words.

Gentlemen, start your engines,

and may the best woman win.

- All right, I would like to

read through the script

before we assign any parts.

I feel a ton of pressure being

team captain,

but I kind of

built myself up last week,

and I don't want to take

a step backwards.

All right, I'm thinking young Ru

and Diana Ross.

Then we have Lady Bunny

and gender fuck drag Ru.

- Yeah.

- Does everyone feel good

about this?

- I feel awesome about it.

- Okay.

- I've worked with

Lady Bunny before.

I've made a couple costumes

for her,

and I've gotten to know her

pretty well.

- Ru's mom, you're going to be

the comic relief

right from the get-go.

- I'm the first impression

in this ballet,

and I can't dance.

- Have you had

any formal dance training?

- [mumbles]

- [laughs]

- Can you krump dance, though?

- No, what is that?

- You know, the...

I know you can do that.

- This is...that's my

only dance move.

It's going to be a problem.

- Coming up...

- We'll make you big.

- But we can't make her

outshine Ru though, right?

- Trust me.

She ain't gonna outshine me.

- Oh. Oh.

- Fuck.

- [laughs]

- [laughs]

- Today, our main challenge

is No Rupaulogies, the ballet,

which is the story

of Rupaul's life.

I picked Alyssa for my team.

This could go

really, really good,

or this could go way south.

- In the first scene, there's

a good Ru and a bad Ru,

so there are two Ru's.

- I think it will be good

if we played the good Ru

and the bad Ru.

Ru versus Ru.

- Oh.

Oh, I see where this is going.

- Scene three is

"All my legendary children,

Ru and

America's next drag."

You gonna do Ru?

- I guess.

That's fine.

I think Vivienne should be

America's next drag superstar.

- Okay, that's fine.

- Once again, I'm in a team

with Roxxxy Andrews.

I don't like being

paired with her.

I just don't.

I don't like her energy.

- We'll put big earrings

on you.

Jewels, jewels, jewels,

and just the dress

and the shoes and the...

we'll make you big.

- But we can't make her

outshine Ru, though, right?

- Trust me.

She ain't gonna outshine me.

- Oh. Oh.

- I feel like the team today is

really underestimating me.

I'm kind of just waiting for it

to blow.

- Hello, hello, hello, hello,

my private dancers.

all: Hello.

- Is everything beautiful

at the drag ballet?

all: yeah.

- Of course.

- I don't believe you.

[all laughing]

Team Jinkx, who have you

assigned the roles to?

- Well, we have Ivy

as the Lady Bunny.

We have Alaska

as Mama Ernestine.

- [laughs]

- I'm your mama.

- Yes, you are.

- And we have Jade

as little Ru.

I am playing gender fuck

21-year-old Ru.

- Oh, dear.

- Yes.

- And who is playing

'60s Diana Ross?

- That would be Miss Lineysha

here.

- Are you familiar with

Diana Ross and the Supremes?

- Um, not really, no.

- All right.

Now, Ivy, you have

history with Lady Bunny.

- I do.

- I've always wanted to know.

I know you make costumes

for her.

- Uh-huh.

- What is Lady Bunny's

real waist size?

- She's a 28.

[laughs]

- Ooh, you mean her thigh

is a 28.

[all laughing]

- Now, Ernestine is Alaska.

Where are you drawing

inspiration?

- Well, in the voiceover,

it's going to say that she had

a mouth like a sailor, so...

- Yes, she did.

Her favorite saying was...

"You pussy-mouthed

motherfucker.”

- [laughs]

- I'm going to attempt to

convey

with my flailing limbs

Ernestine's strictness,

her strength,

and a face that's like this.

- All right, kids.

I'm going to let you get back

to rehearsal.

Good luck.

all: Thank you.

- Hey, team Coco.

- Hi, Ru.

- How you doing?

Now, which Rupaul

are you playing?

- I am the good Ru,

and alyssa's the bad Ru.

- [laughs]

Now, is this a case

of life imitating art?

- Yeah.

- How did that come about?

'Cause I was pretty gobsmacked

when you chose Alyssa.

I thought that you guys

had a little thing.

- Well, this is a competition,

and like I said,

I'm playing to win.

- Now, who's playing

'90s supermodel Ru?

- Me.

- The glamazon.

I love it, and you're working

with '90s Diana Ross.

Have you ever done

Diana Ross before?

- I've been asked

and actually haven't...

I wasn't able to the one time

they asked me to do it, so...

- Yeah, yeah.

- Yeah.

- Now, Roxxxy,

you are today's Rupaul,

and you're working with

America's next drag superstar,

which would be Vivienne Pinay.

- She's just playing her

for the sketch.

She's not America's

next drag superstar.

[laughs]

- Yeah.

- Now, Vivienne,

you have been criticized

for playing it safe,

playing it small.

- Yes.

- How are you going to

overcome that?

- I, again, have a lot of

big personalities

in my...in my group.

- You absolutely do.

- After last week, I just have

to, fuck it, just be myself.

If people don't like it,

they don't like it.

- Vivienne has to step it up.

- Break a leg.

- I mean, Ru gave her

a warning last week.

I don't think he'll give her

another one.

- Gather around,

my sugar plum fairies.

Now, in a moment,

you'll be working

with two red hot

choreographers.

From Shaping Sound, Travis Wall

and Nick Lazzarini.

[clapping]

And tomorrow on the main stage,

you'll be making

your dance debut

in front of Travis and our

other extra special guest judge,

Chaz Bono.

all: Oh.

[cheering]

- Chaz.

I live for Chaz Bono.

Chaz Bono came out of

Cher's vagina.

- And opera ballet.

Come dressed in your most

diva-licious outfit.

Ladies, this production of

No Rupaulogies

could change the face of

contemporary dance forever.

So don't fuck it up.

- All right.

[classical piano music]

* *

- Wow.

We don't have to do that, do we?

- Hey, ladies.

- Hi.

- I'm Travis.

- I'm Nick.

- Both the choreographers

are very dreamy,

and we're in

solitary confinement right now,

and all the girls

are like cats in heat,

to be quite honest.

- We kind of want to see

what we're working with here,

so if you could, one at a time,

show me your best move.

- So I have a little bit of

this in me.

- Okay.

- Oh, gorgeous.

- So...and these.

- [laughs]

- Oh, we love a split.

- That was beautiful.

- Wow, fouettes

are very advanced.

- [laughs]

- Oh, black swan.

- Fuck.

- This one.

[scatting Macarena]

- Macarena.

- So you're going to

take your legs out,

and you're going to go

jump that way.

- Um...

- Jump off the right foot.

Right foot.

Almost.

And chaine out and turn around

and kiss her.

- Ah.

- A little bit more grander.

Remember, you're playing

Diana Ross.

- I'm playing the role

of Diana Ross,

and I know how to do it.

- You know who Diana Ross is?

- Lineysha's going to bomb

at this.

- All right, take your foot...

you ready for floor?

You're going to jump right,

left, right, right, back.

Back, back, back.

- That's tricky.

- Nick and Travis,

they were, like,

shooting this choreography

on me super fast.

I'm just trying to remember it.

It was so overwhelming.

- This one's really important

for timing,

so you guys have

a lot of work to do.

- If we miss a beat,

it throws off

the whole rest of the piece.

It's going to be a nightmare

if we can't get this perfect.

- Coming up...

- And jump, go.

- They're, like, hesitant.

They're just not willing to

trust each other.

- [squeals]

- Honey kind of sucks.

Watching her

was so uncomfortable.

Fuck my life.

- [laughs]

[laughs]

- Stretch and extend

all the way over.

Stretch that side.

Today's main challenge is,

we have to tell Rupaul's story

through the art of dance.

This is a very important

challenge to me,

because I own

and operate a dance studio.

Good, and straighten.

And fingers crossed

that everything

just falls into place.

Oh, here we go.

Here we go, they're coming.

One, two, three, four, second,

five, down, seven, up, eight,

back, one, two, three, four.

- The looks on their faces

were, like, "uh-oh."

- Oh, that's real fancy, girls.

And I about shit my pants.

- Bye, kids.

- Bye, guys.

- Psych!

And it worked.

all: Hi.

- Hey, ladies.

How are you guys?

- Good, how are you?

- Are you guys ready

to dance today?

- For sure.

- All right, so let's start

with scene number one.

- Ooh, good Ru, evil Ru.

This one's going to be good.

- After not speaking to Coco

for two years,

and the blow up last week,

and then being picked

for his team today,

I'm hoping that our chemistry

can be there

and we can really deliver.

- I think you should definitely

do the lift.

This is about

trusting each other.

Can you just take her around

this way?

And turn me and go, lift,

like, that way?

- Oof.

- Slide and jump, go.

Jump.

- Ah.

[squeals]

Owie.

- Wait, wait, wait.

- Owie.

- Wait.

I feel like they're,

like, hesitant

'cause they're just not

willing to trust each other yet.

They definitely have the most

work cut out for them.

You'd run around her,

you grab her by the throat,

and then you

just let her go.

Go around, go around, go around,

go around, go around.

And then grab him by the throat.

You grab.

Mm, shake, shake, shake, shake.

- It felt so good.

- Grab her hands.

So you'll do six of these.

One, two, three, four, five,

six, passe, and right, left,

right, left, right, left, passe,

and...

- Travis decides to give us

some choreography

that's actually

a little complicated.

- Go.

Right, left.

- Down, down.

- Wait, you're holding wrong.

It's just six steps,

so as much as you can,

try to retain the choreography

just a little faster.

- Okay.

- Honey kind of sucks.

Watching her was

so uncomfortable.

Fuck my life.

- Next.

- What do you want, like...

- [laughs]

- Ooh.

- Wow.

- That's what I do.

- Roxxxy wants all the eyes

on her,

and I'm really waiting

for the moment

where she kind of

messes up,

even though she's

still in my group.

- Cue music.

Jump, jump.

Turn around, and jump.

- Shit.

- Jump.

Go over and around.

Turn, turn.

All right, cool, thank you.

- It's...yeah, it's getting...

yeah.

Roxxxy and Vivienne,

they're probably the weakest

dancers in that group,

so to have them

at the end

makes me a little bit nervous.

Remember, this is about

Ru's life.

Don't fuck it up.

[hip-hop music]

* *

- Ro.

- 'Laska.

- Tox.

- Rolaskatox, darling.

- So tonight,

the first time we have

a major performance

right on stage

in front of Rupaul

and the judges.

- Show me one of your steps,

Alaska.

I've been waiting to see.

- Um, it's like this.

It goes...

[trills]

- That's beautiful.

- We're all shitting our pants

a little bit.

Or a lot, in my case.

- You know, when I came back

from college,

my parents actually found

a picture of me in drag.

- Oh, my...oh.

- Like, that's

how they found out.

They basically sent me out of

the country,

'cause they were like,

"You need to get away

from your negative influences.”

- Oh, my God.

- They sent you away basically.

- They sent me to Africa.

Yeah.

I think being a gay person...

we go through things

that I think enable us

to grow in a way

that straight people

don't get to have

that experience.

- I just wish my dad

would have been

a little bit more supportive

of the whole dancing.

When you do something

that makes you so happy,

and other people

try to take your happiness,

it's sad.

We just didn't have

that father-son relationship.

It was very hard for him

to understand me.

I found myself

getting lost in music,

and that's when it sparked me

to become a choreographer.

- I think everything

that we've all gone through

has made us...

- Oh, every road.

- Absolutely.

- And for me to give back

what was given to me,

the gift of

dance and art...it's my world.

- I feel really bad about Jade.

Not picking her right away.

Oh, she didn't even...

she just walked by me

like I wasn't even here.

She's really funny with me

right now.

I got to talk to Jade.

I've been trying to talk to you

all day,

and you've just been

avoiding me.

- Girl, I'm just focused on

my challenge and being here,

just like you're focused

on being here.

My feelings were hurt that Coco

didn't pick me.

Maybe she thought that I wasn't

a strong enough player

as the other girls.

I'm very happy that you picked

the team that you wanted,

and I'm very happy with the team

that I got.

So everything worked out.

Being in the bottom two

every week

just seems to work out for me.

- Oh, girl, I don't need

this today.

I need to get ready.

- Alyssa's most known

for her faces that she makes

in the mirror.

- The weird faces,

that's my favorite part.

- Playing

the ugliest face game?

- Yeah.

- So that's what you do on

the runway, Alyssa?

all: Ooh!

- [laughs]

Just pull it all in.

- [laughs]

[Rupaul's Cover Girl

(Put the Bass in Your Walk)

* Cover girl *

* Put the bass in your walk *

* Head to toe *

* Let your whole body talk *

* And what *

- Ooh.

- Welcome to the main stage of

Rupaul's Drag Race.

Michelle Visage,

may I have this dance?

- For the rest of your life.

- [laughs]

Santino Rice, how about some

dirty dancin'?

- Nobody puts baby Ru

in a corner.

- Ever!

- [laughs]

- And now, a man

with all the right moves,

Travis Wall.

How did my dolls do?

- They were absolutely fabulous

this week.

- Chaz Bono, welcome.

- Thank you, Ru.

- Tonight, we are dancing with

the drag stars.

- Can't wait.

- [laughs]

This week, our queens

were challenged

to dance their padded asses off

in an original drag ballet,

No Rupaulogies:

An American Dance Odyssey,

based on my life.

Or, as I like to call it,

the greatest story ever told.

[laughter]

Gentlemen, start your engines,

and may the best woman win.

Coming up...

- Talk about not delivering.

- I just feel like

it's forgettable.

- The "it" thing

that you've got,

I didn't see up on the stage.

- [laughs]

[laughs]

[triumphant classical music]

- Act one of No Rupaulogies,

starring team Jinkx Monsoon.

[Vivaldi's spring]

I was born a poor black child.

[baby crying]

My mama, Ernestine,

swore like a truck driver.

"His name is

Rupaul Andre Charles,

and he's gonna be a star,

'cause ain't another

motherfucker alive

with a name like that."

And damn it, maybe, just maybe,

mama was right.

I loved playing dress up

as a kid.

Then, one day,

I saw The Supremes on

The Ed Sullivan Show.

My eye went straight to

the girl in the middle.

I couldn't stop watching her.

She was my idol,

and I've been singing

Diana Ross songs

in the mirror ever since.

[William Tell Overture playing]

At 21, my pal,

Lady Bunny, and I

ran away to New York City.

With a pussycat wig,

a pair of cha- cha heels,

and a dream,

we became the toast

of the town.

Well, at least

the lower east side.

And we partied

like there was no tomorrow,

and there almost wasn't.

- [laughs]

- [laughs]

[laughter and applause]

- The next team better not

slip on

all that pee on the stage,

because we pissed

all over this competition.

[Tchaikovsky's Swan Theme]

- Act two of No Rupaulogies,

starring team Coco Montrese.

I can't wait to see

how this turns out.

[Beethoven's Symphony #5]

* *

Super stardom was so close

I could taste it,

but there was a war raging,

a battle between me and myself.

I hit rock bottom.

I had two choices,

to die or die trying.

Ah.

[all applauding]

Brava.

[Mozart's overture to

The Marriage of Figaro]

Flash forward.

The '90s.

You better work.

Supermodel, TV, films,

and then my forever came today.

My idol, Diana Ross,

invited me to work with her.

It took me a lifetime

to get here,

and, honey,

I wasn't going anywhere.

[applause]

- Honey was just kind of dead,

and I was carrying around

some extra blubber.

- All my dreams have come true,

so I've decided to spread

the love,

and to find America's

next drag superstar.

The charisma,

uniqueness, nerve,

and talent is overflowing.

[Beethoven's Ode to Joy]

[all applauding]

[Handel's Hallelujah Chorus]

- * Hallelujah *

- As I watch over

my legendary children,

mama is watching over me...

- [laughs]

- Whispering in my ear,

"Good luck, baby,

and don't fuck it up.”

- * Hallelujah *

- Brava.

Brava!

Coming up...

Who do you think deserves

to go home tonight and why?

Roxxxy Andrews.

Honey Mahogany.

The rest of you are safe.

You may leave the stage.

Ladies, it's time for

the judges' critiques.

First up, Jinkx Monsoon.

- I'm not crazy about the hair

and makeup.

It's not my favorite.

What's on your head?

- It is just a little, um,

head piece.

- I know you are filled

with lots of characters,

but I want to see some glamour.

I want to know if you've got

that in you.

- I believed in

all the debauchery

that you were creating up there

on stage

as young 21-year-old Ru.

- You were so entertaining,

and it was so much fun.

I really had a great time

watching you dance.

- All right, next up,

Ivy Winters.

- I love this outfit.

I'm a big Victor/Victoria fan,

so I think that this is great.

- You make everything

that you wear.

- I do, yeah.

- You're mind-blowingly

talented.

- Thank you.

- And your Lady Bunny

was so much fun.

- If anything,

your Lady Bunny was maybe

a little too skinny

and too pretty.

all: Ooh.

- That's a read!

- [laughs]

- Ooh!

- All right, next up,

Roxxxy Andrews.

- This look tonight...

there is something

not quite right

in the waist and hips area.

I don't think it's as flattering

as it could be.

You're not as curvy this week.

- I certainly know

what it's like

to not be the lightest

on one's feet.

You have to kind of

make up for it

with attitude and everything,

and I thought that's where

you could have elevated

your performance.

- Next up, Vivienne Pinay.

- Hi, Ru.

- Tonight, you faded into

the woodwork again.

It's a tad pedestrian.

- Look around

at your competition

and what they're wearing.

This is really low-key.

- I think you're actually one

of the most

beautiful queens

I've ever seen in person.

I think...

- Hey, wait, hold up a minute.

[laughter]

- I go back to thinking about

your performance

and, just, I feel like

it's forgettable.

- Next up, Honey Mahogany.

- You look like you must have

a lovely body.

This is just covering it up

and not doing anything for you.

- What is with you

and the kaftan collection?

Why don't we get to see

your figure?

And we need to talk about

your Diana Ross.

- I...you know, I've never done

Diana before.

- Clearly.

- [laughs]

- Alyssa Edwards.

- Tonight is ri-donk-culous,

and I've not seen a queen grand

jete across the stage before.

Fierce.

- You embodied everything

of the evil Ru,

and I don't think

the evil Ru lost.

- No.

And it didn't lose.

- Hello.

- If you walk into every

challenge this confident

as you were with this challenge,

I think you'll go a very long

way in this competition.

- Ladies, one last question

before you go.

At this point, you're all

getting to know each other.

Who do you think deserves to go

home tonight and why?

[thunder]

Jinkx Monsoon.

- Vivienne,

only because it seems like

she's repeating the same notes

that you guys are giving her.

- Ivy, what about you?

- I would have to say Honey.

- Roxxxy?

- Vivienne.

- Vivienne?

- I would say Honey.

- Honey?

- I would say Vivienne.

- Alyssa?

- The one that I would want

to send home

is not in this lineup.

- Who is not in the lineup

that you want to send home?

- Charisma, uniqueness, nerve,

and talent...

um, I don't see Jade

at the same level.

She's kind of a little

hokey pokey.

This is a drag queen

competition.

- Well, my queens,

I think we have heard enough.

While you untuck in

the Interior Illusions lounge,

the judges and I

will deliberate.

All righty.

Just between us dancers...

[laughter]

Let's talk.

What do you think?

Starting with Jinkx Monsoon.

- I do want to see other sides

to Jinkx

that I don't think

we've gotten to yet.

- If she can pull off

the glamazon,

we've got a real contender

on our hands.

- Her dancing wasn't

phenomenal,

but I think she

really made up for that

with committing

to her character.

- Ivy Winters.

- Nobody's more in on the joke

than Bunny,

and Ivy really

played that well.

- Did Lady Bunny ever lift you

up like that, Ru?

- Usually I saw her going down.

[laughter]

Roxxxy Andrews.

- She's out there playing you.

Honest to God, it's been so long

since I've seen you go out

in a leotard.

- She had a tall order

to play you now,

and the "it" thing

that you've got,

I didn't see up on the stage.

- All right, up next

is Honey Mahogany.

Now, here she is, playing

my idol, Diana Ross.

- I found myself watching

Detox the whole time.

- Tonight,

she comes up here again

with a sequin kaftan,

and this, you know, hodge podge.

It was all just whatever.

- Alyssa Edwards,

who is a trained dancer.

Regardless of her technique

and her background as a dancer,

she had the story in her head,

and we could see that.

- I mean,

she just looked so hot,

and I love her walk.

- She danced from head to toe,

between her hands and her toes.

Everything, she articulated

through her entire body,

and it was amazing.

- All right, moving on to

Vivienne Pinay.

- Talk about not delivering.

Even being the crowned drag

superstar...

No, you weren't.

- Yeah.

Yeah.

- You were just a regular girl

putting a crown on at the mall.

- Silence!

I've made my decision.

Bring back my girls.

[laughs]

[laughs]

- Welcome back, ladies.

This week,

you were all dance troupers,

but one of you stood out

as the prima drag ballerina.

The winner of this week's

main challenge is...

Alyssa Edwards.

[all applauding]

You've won a custom feather

piece from Mother Plucker,

and you'll receive immunity

from elimination next week.

- I'm at a loss for words,

and that doesn't happen much.

I'm just very thankful.

- Ivy Winters...

you're safe.

- Thank you all.

- Jinkx Monsoon.

You're safe.

- Thank you.

- Honey Mahogany,

as Diana Ross,

we were not swept away.

I'm sorry, my dear,

but you're up for elimination.

Roxxxy Andrews, we challenged

you to step it up,

and you fell short.

Vivienne Pinay,

you are making progress,

but this week,

it was not measured

in leaps and bounds.

Roxxxy Andrews...

you are safe.

- Thank you.

I'm so sorry.

- You may join the other girls.

- Vivienne Pinay,

I'm sorry, my dear,

but you are up for elimination.

Two queens stand before me.

Ladies, this is your last chance

to impress me

and save yourself

from elimination.

The time has come.

You need to lip sync

for your life.

- The anger that I have

is preventing me

from being nervous.

Fuck it.

I'm going to do it

to the best of my ability,

because I owe it to myself.

- Good luck,

and don't fuck it up.

- * Yeah yeah yeah *

* Yeah yeah yeah *

* I think I did it again *

* I made you believe *

* We're more than

just friends *

* Oh, baby *

* It might seem like a crush *

* But it doesn't mean *

- I can sing live,

and I'm really able

to deliver a lip sync.

This competition is mine.

- * 'Cause to lose *

* All my senses *

- I'm really trying to look

the judges right in the eye,

and give them a reason

to keep me here.

- * Oops, I did it again *

* I played with your heart *

* Got lost in the game *

* Oh, baby, baby *

* Oops, you think I'm in love *

* That I'm sent from above *

* I'm not that innocent *

* You see, my problem is this *

* I'm dreaming away *

- They're both lacking energy.

It's Britney Spears.

Bring it.

- * Oops, I did it again *

* To your heart *

* Got lost *

* I'm not that innocent *

[clapping]

- Ladies,

I've made my decision.

Honey Mahogany.

Vivienne Pinay.

I'm sending you both home.

I'm sorry, my dears.

Neither one of you showed me

the fire it takes to stay.

- In the history

of Rupaul's Drag Race,

there has never been

a double elimination.

- Double elimination?

Of course, it is.

Why wouldn't it be?

- Now, ladies, sashay away.

- I do have talent,

and I do have,

I think, what it takes

to be a performer.

If I could do something

differently,

I would have not worn

this kaftan.

Maybe I just need to

hire a stylist.

- I'm upset, obviously,

because I want to be here

to the end,

but I am beautiful,

and nobody can

take that away from me.

I will always be

the fishiest queen.

Today, tomorrow, next month,

the past seasons,

and the next seasons to come.

- Ladies, from here on out,

I will not tolerate

no half stepping.

Bring me your best.

Now, remember,

if you can't love yourself,

how in the hell you gonna

love somebody else?

Can I get a amen up in here?

all: Amen.

- [laughs]

Now, let the music play.
