            - Older?            
              - Oh!

       and we're breathing      

26
00:01:09,969 --> 00:01:12,205
      a sigh of relief that     
   we weren't the first to go.  

27
00:01:12,305 --> 00:01:14,908
   And at the same time, like,  
     Hershii was my friend.     

28
00:01:15,008 --> 00:01:17,310
      - It says, whiplash.      

29
00:01:17,410 --> 00:01:19,145
         Love, Hershii.         

30
00:01:19,245 --> 00:01:21,114
      - Whiplash, whiplash.     

31
00:01:21,214 --> 00:01:23,316
   - There's a lot of emotions  
     going through my head,     

32
00:01:23,416 --> 00:01:26,686
  because Hershii's one of the  
  persons that I got close to.  

33
00:01:26,786 --> 00:01:29,322
       But you know, I did      
        what I got to do.       

34
00:01:29,422 --> 00:01:32,225
      I definitely did not      
  deserve to be in the bottom.  

35
00:01:32,325 --> 00:01:34,627
    I mean, the outfit speaks   
           for itself.          

36
00:01:34,727 --> 00:01:37,831
      I think these queens      
     are shady because they     

37
00:01:37,931 --> 00:01:40,433
    saved Mirage when Mirage    
 should have been in the bottom.

38
00:01:40,533 --> 00:01:43,002
    And I can see how they're   
  gonna start playing the game. 

39
00:01:43,103 --> 00:01:45,839
     And that's OK, because     
     I can play a game too.     

40
00:01:45,939 --> 00:01:49,375
           - Nymphia,           
   condragulations, miss diva.

        how does it feel?       

44
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,684
  - It feels crazy to actually, 
 like, win something of $5,000.

00:02:00,887 --> 00:02:02,355
        - A little bummed       
         by the results,        

48
00:02:02,455 --> 00:02:07,660
 honestly, because my outfit was
  all unconventional materials  

49
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,930
      and also I got, like,     
        perfect critiques       

50
00:02:11,030 --> 00:02:14,834
       and I don't think,       
       like, Nymphia did.

         won once again.

     - Always a bridesmaid.     

54
00:02:21,908 --> 00:02:23,143
   - It's like the second time  
           in the top.          

55
00:02:23,243 --> 00:02:26,312
     It stings not winning,     
      but RuPaul, it's OK.      

56
00:02:26,412 --> 00:02:27,380
  You made the wrong decision.  

57
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:28,481
         I forgive you.         

58
00:02:28,581 --> 00:02:30,850

  new sister and my old sister.

00:02:40,326 --> 00:02:41,227

63
00:02:41,327 --> 00:02:42,695
           [laughter]           
              - OK.             

64
00:02:42,795 --> 00:02:45,031
    - I gave a little bit of    
    an unsolicited, you know,   

65
00:02:45,131 --> 00:02:47,467
     opinion slash critique     
        on Amanda's look.       

66
00:02:47,567 --> 00:02:49,636
   - The way I remember it is   
  that Plane came up to Amanda  

67
00:02:49,736 --> 00:02:51,004
    and said, "Quite frankly,   
          I don't like

          - What's up?          

72
00:02:57,877 --> 00:02:59,045
       - As we get to know      
           each other,          

73
00:02:59,145 --> 00:03:01,080
       I hope you're able       
   to sort of sway my opinion

     Adrenaline was flowing.

              And--

00:03:15,862 --> 00:03:17,363

    the edit and the alcohol.

        [all exclaiming]        

83
00:03:19,465 --> 00:03:20,500
        - No, no, no, no.       

84
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,901
    I don't need to blame it    
          on anything.          

85
00:03:22,001 --> 00:03:23,670
    I'll take responsibility    
     for what I said, baby.

 giving my unsolicited feedback

  to you when it wasn't needed.

      to the conversation.      

89

             - Sure.            

90
00:03:32,478 --> 00:03:34,714

         my fucking ass.        

91
00:03:34,814 --> 00:03:36,549
      - It was the way that     
       you came up to her       

92

         and not having

      that we do with her.      

94
00:03:39,586 --> 00:03:40,687
            - Right.            
          - You did say         

95
00:03:40,787 --> 00:03:42,355
         the same thing         
    that we have said to her.

           To be fair.          

98
00:03:45,658 --> 00:03:47,160
     It didn't feel the same    
       because you didn't       

99

  have that same relationship.

           a bit more,          

101
00:03:49,796 --> 00:03:51,831
     maybe I can, you know,     
     shade you in a bit more

103

    You can't unring a bell.

   Now it's just a matter of,   
    how can we move forward?    

109
00:04:05,745 --> 00:04:07,981
       Are we each other's      
      favorite people now?      

110
00:04:08,081 --> 00:04:09,582
    No. Does it matter to me?   

111
00:04:09,682 --> 00:04:10,750
               No.              

112
00:04:10,850 --> 00:04:12,185
      Let the shade begin.

139
00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:14,914
        I think it's safe       
         to say I'm here        

140
00:05:15,014 --> 00:05:18,518
     to shine like the big,     
     bright star that I am.     

141
00:05:18,618 --> 00:05:20,086
              So...             
 - Stars are full of gas, baby. 

142
00:05:20,186 --> 00:05:22,522
           [laughter]           

143
00:05:25,258 --> 00:05:26,826
     - Hello, hello, hello.     

144
00:05:26,926 --> 00:05:30,897
         [all cheering]         

145
00:05:30,997 --> 00:05:32,465
           My queens.           

146
00:05:32,565 --> 00:05:33,900
             - Hey.             
              - Hi.             

147
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,403
 - America's next drag superstar
          can't rely on         

148
00:05:37,503 --> 00:05:39,439
      her good looks alone.     

149
00:05:39,539 --> 00:05:42,675
      She's got to develop      
         her character.         

150
00:05:44,310 --> 00:05:48,915
   So back by popular demand,   
 for this week's maxi challenge,

151
00:05:49,015 --> 00:05:53,986
    you'll be starring in the   
 sketch comedy show "RDR Live." 

152
00:05:54,087 --> 00:05:57,290
         [all cheering]         

153
00:05:57,390 --> 00:06:00,193
         Today you need         
      to choose your parts      

154
00:06:00,293 --> 00:06:03,930
          and rehearse          
     your padded asses off.     

155
00:06:04,030 --> 00:06:08,501
   Because tomorrow you'll be   
  performing your sketches live 

156
00:06:08,601 --> 00:06:10,803
          in one take.          

157
00:06:10,903 --> 00:06:12,772
           - Let's go.          
          - All right.          

158
00:06:12,872 --> 00:06:15,575
 - It's literally "SNL," honey. 

159
00:06:15,675 --> 00:06:17,343
         I'm a little--         
      I'm goosebumps, mama.     

160
00:06:17,443 --> 00:06:18,945
    Like, if you fuck it up,    
           that's it.           

161
00:06:19,045 --> 00:06:20,380
           It's over.           

162
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,015
 - Now remember, this challenge 
      is all about creating     

163
00:06:23,116 --> 00:06:24,550
      a breakout character.     

164
00:06:24,650 --> 00:06:26,919
   Racers, start your engines,  

165
00:06:27,019 --> 00:06:29,155
        and may the best        
         drag queen win.        

166
00:06:29,255 --> 00:06:30,156
          - All right.          

167
00:06:30,256 --> 00:06:32,058
         [all cheering]         

168
00:06:32,158 --> 00:06:34,227
          - "RDR Live."         

169
00:06:34,327 --> 00:06:36,295
    There are five sketches.    

170
00:06:36,396 --> 00:06:38,364
     - Why don't we just go     
   down the list of characters  

171
00:06:38,464 --> 00:06:40,466
  and we can raise our hands if 
  we're interested in the role. 

172
00:06:40,566 --> 00:06:41,968
 - Who wants Branderson Cooper? 

173
00:06:42,068 --> 00:06:43,836
 I would love to have that role.

174
00:06:43,936 --> 00:06:45,705
   - And you're the only one.   
          - Thank you.          

175
00:06:45,805 --> 00:06:46,706
          So it's mine.         

176
00:06:46,806 --> 00:06:48,040
            [laughs]            

177
00:06:48,141 --> 00:06:49,642
 - Who wants to be Donna Lemon? 

178
00:06:49,742 --> 00:06:51,310
      And that's just you.      

179
00:06:51,411 --> 00:06:53,346
     - I'm really interested    
        in News Anchor 1.       

180
00:06:53,446 --> 00:06:54,614
 - I'd love to be News Anchor 2.

181
00:06:54,714 --> 00:06:56,749
    I see the newsroom sketch   

182
00:06:56,849 --> 00:06:58,584
  with the late night anchors.  

183
00:06:58,684 --> 00:07:01,788
    This is the Seth Meyers,    
       Amy Poehler moment       

184
00:07:01,888 --> 00:07:03,823
    I have been waiting for.    

185
00:07:03,923 --> 00:07:06,492
      - I'm also interested     
        in News Anchor 2.       

186
00:07:06,592 --> 00:07:08,494
       - And then we have       
      brick from Stonewall,     

187
00:07:08,594 --> 00:07:10,363
      which is all of you.      

188
00:07:10,463 --> 00:07:11,531
        - How many people       
         want the brick?        

189
00:07:11,631 --> 00:07:13,399
     - I'll take the brick.     

190
00:07:13,499 --> 00:07:16,469
     The role of the brick,     
     I see so much potential    

191
00:07:16,569 --> 00:07:20,273
   for, like, physical comedy   
     and I see myself in it     

192
00:07:20,373 --> 00:07:23,109
 accepting the Oscar as a brick.

193
00:07:23,209 --> 00:07:24,911
    - There's really only one   
     thing that I want to do    

194
00:07:25,011 --> 00:07:26,546
     and that's Candy Long.     

195
00:07:26,646 --> 00:07:28,614
    So I'm gonna take Candy,    
   and I'm gonna let you girls  

196
00:07:28,714 --> 00:07:30,416
    fight it out for Connie.    

197
00:07:30,516 --> 00:07:31,417
    - Who wants to be Connie?   

198
00:07:31,517 --> 00:07:32,652
    - Connie's slutty, right?   

199
00:07:32,752 --> 00:07:34,821
       - Yeah, Connie's--       
     - She's flirty and fun.    

200
00:07:34,921 --> 00:07:36,689
     - I'm a little nervous     
     about you doing Connie.    

201
00:07:36,789 --> 00:07:37,924
          [tense music]         

202
00:07:38,024 --> 00:07:39,091
     - Why are you nervous?     

203
00:07:39,192 --> 00:07:40,426
    - You want the tea, sis?    

204
00:07:40,526 --> 00:07:42,128
 I think that I'm going to excel
         in this role...        

205
00:07:42,228 --> 00:07:43,229
            - Uh-huh.           

206
00:07:43,329 --> 00:07:44,597
        - And I want you        

207
00:07:44,697 --> 00:07:46,132
      to excel in your role     
        as well, sister.        

208
00:07:46,232 --> 00:07:48,100
   - So you think you're gonna  
  outshine me from the get go?  

209
00:07:48,201 --> 00:07:50,470
         Because that's         
       what you're saying.      

210
00:07:50,570 --> 00:07:51,471
   - I wasn't--I'm not saying   
            anything.           

211
00:07:51,571 --> 00:07:52,672
  - That's what you're saying.  

212
00:07:52,772 --> 00:07:54,006
        - I know, I know,       
      but I just want her--     

213
00:07:54,106 --> 00:07:55,007
      - Stop making drama.      

214
00:07:55,107 --> 00:07:57,109
  - I just want her reasoning.  

215
00:07:57,210 --> 00:07:58,778
  - I would love to do Connie.  

216
00:07:58,878 --> 00:08:00,179
  And we're both stupid sluts.  

217
00:08:00,279 --> 00:08:01,214
      - We can slut it up.      

218
00:08:01,314 --> 00:08:02,915
             - Yeah.            

219
00:08:03,015 --> 00:08:05,418
  - I think she was scared that 
    I was gonna outshine her.   

220
00:08:05,518 --> 00:08:07,286
  I didn't even want that role. 

221
00:08:07,386 --> 00:08:08,287
       And you know what?       

222
00:08:08,387 --> 00:08:10,523
          She's a cunt.         

223
00:08:10,623 --> 00:08:12,258
       - And then the host      
          will be TBD.          

224
00:08:12,358 --> 00:08:13,593
     - So who wants to host?    
              - Me.             

225
00:08:13,693 --> 00:08:14,827
        - I want to host.       

226
00:08:14,927 --> 00:08:16,796
      I really, really want     
       to do the hosting,       

227
00:08:16,896 --> 00:08:19,465
  because it's not a character  
       and I can just put       

228
00:08:19,565 --> 00:08:21,133
   my own personality into it.  

229
00:08:21,234 --> 00:08:23,870
   - That honestly is the most  
   important role, I believe.   

230
00:08:23,970 --> 00:08:26,005
        It sets the tone        
         and this person        

231
00:08:26,105 --> 00:08:28,140
  has to absolutely destroy it. 

232
00:08:28,241 --> 00:08:29,509
          - I feel like         
     I would do really well.    

233
00:08:29,609 --> 00:08:32,578
     - I see Sapphira doing     
    really great in that too.   

234
00:08:32,678 --> 00:08:34,514
      - I think it would be     
     very interesting to see    

235
00:08:34,614 --> 00:08:36,015
     you in a host position.    

236
00:08:36,115 --> 00:08:38,784
   - Sapphira, are you willing  
     to bow down and give--     

237
00:08:38,885 --> 00:08:40,319
       - I'm never willing      
          to bow down.          

238
00:08:40,419 --> 00:08:44,257
  - We could either do it rock, 
   paper, scissors, or votes.   

239
00:08:44,357 --> 00:08:46,559
  I think that's the most fair. 

240
00:08:46,659 --> 00:08:47,927
   - I'm gonna do Lowenstein.   

241
00:08:48,027 --> 00:08:50,263
              - Oh.             
              - Oh.             

242
00:08:50,363 --> 00:08:52,798
 - I really know that I'm gonna 
     turn out anything I do.    

243
00:08:52,899 --> 00:08:54,467
       So she can have it.      

244
00:08:54,567 --> 00:08:55,868
     - You sure about that?     
      You're locking it in?     

245
00:08:55,968 --> 00:08:57,270
      - Mother has spoken.      
             - Yep.             

246
00:08:57,370 --> 00:08:58,571
          - All right.          

247
00:08:58,671 --> 00:09:00,072
     - I guess I'm hosting.     

248
00:09:00,172 --> 00:09:01,207
        - Not "I guess."        

249
00:09:01,307 --> 00:09:02,208
        - Not "I guess."        
         - I'm reading.         

250
00:09:02,308 --> 00:09:03,809
     Yes, I guess I'll host.    

251
00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:07,280
   - It seems like the second   
   that Sapphira gives Mirage   

252
00:09:07,380 --> 00:09:11,484
        the role of host,       
       she's like, oh, OK.      

253
00:09:11,584 --> 00:09:12,919
    I thought you wanted it.    

254
00:09:13,019 --> 00:09:14,887
           - You good?          

255
00:09:14,987 --> 00:09:16,522
             - Yeah.            

256
00:09:16,622 --> 00:09:18,724
   It's making me second guess  
          if I want it,         

257
00:09:18,824 --> 00:09:20,893
       because now I think      
      she's playing a game.     

258
00:09:20,993 --> 00:09:23,262
   But at the end of the day,   
      I got what I wanted.      

259
00:09:23,362 --> 00:09:25,731
 So can I really be mad at her? 

260
00:09:25,831 --> 00:09:27,366
 - And then we have sketch five.

261
00:09:27,466 --> 00:09:29,368
     I think we should make     
 the singing girls do this one. 

262
00:09:29,468 --> 00:09:31,137
       - This is literally      
        a preschool song.       

263
00:09:31,237 --> 00:09:33,439
      This sketch is about      
        Barbra Streisand.       

264
00:09:33,539 --> 00:09:35,741
         But I'm reading        
    the sketch and thinking,    

265
00:09:35,841 --> 00:09:37,109
     you don't have to sing.    

266
00:09:37,209 --> 00:09:38,444
  It's fucking "Jingle Bells."  

267
00:09:38,544 --> 00:09:40,379
      You don't have to be      
        a choir director        

268
00:09:40,479 --> 00:09:41,914
     to sing "Jingle Bells."    

269
00:09:42,014 --> 00:09:43,583
        I'm sticking with       
         News Anchor 2.         

270
00:09:43,683 --> 00:09:45,084
 - You would eat it up, Plasma. 

271
00:09:45,184 --> 00:09:46,519
  - I feel like we could all do 
  great in a number of places.  

272
00:09:46,619 --> 00:09:48,254
        I'd like to stick       
       with News Anchor 2.      

273
00:09:48,354 --> 00:09:50,890
      - I think personally      
       that me and Amanda       

274
00:09:50,990 --> 00:09:52,391
      have a great rapport.     

275
00:09:52,491 --> 00:09:54,293
  We are becoming good friends. 

276
00:09:54,393 --> 00:09:57,930
    And I think that we would   
 eat up Anchor 1 and 2 together.

277
00:09:58,030 --> 00:10:01,067
    I'm sorry, Plasma, but I    
  also think that Barbra Shop,  

278
00:10:01,167 --> 00:10:03,970
   it's written for you, girl.  
  - It's written for you, babe. 

279
00:10:04,070 --> 00:10:06,672
       - Me, Amanda, and Q      
        are all friends,        

280
00:10:06,772 --> 00:10:09,041
        and we want to do       
       this scene together      

281
00:10:09,141 --> 00:10:10,776
    and Plasma wants my role.   

282
00:10:10,876 --> 00:10:12,979
       Like, can't you see      
        what's happening?       

283
00:10:13,079 --> 00:10:14,447
   We've decided this already.  

284
00:10:14,547 --> 00:10:16,415
       I'm so sorry, diva,      
       but like, you will       

285
00:10:16,515 --> 00:10:18,184
    eat up Barbra Streisand.    
          I know this.          

286
00:10:18,284 --> 00:10:19,185
         Can you do it?         

287
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:20,186
             Thanks.            

288
00:10:20,286 --> 00:10:21,721
     Mwah, thank you, baby.     

289
00:10:21,821 --> 00:10:23,289
 - I just feel like I was kicked
  out of the news anchor group  

290
00:10:23,389 --> 00:10:24,490
          without my--          
  - No, no, no, no, no, no, no. 

291
00:10:24,590 --> 00:10:26,192
   It's just an opinion, girl.  

292
00:10:26,292 --> 00:10:28,160
  - That a lot of people share. 

293
00:10:28,260 --> 00:10:30,129
           [laughter]           

294
00:10:30,229 --> 00:10:32,565
      - It feels very much      
         like I'm being         

295
00:10:32,665 --> 00:10:34,967
       assigned a role by       
       someone who's never      

296
00:10:35,067 --> 00:10:37,536
   cast a comedy show before.   

297
00:10:37,637 --> 00:10:39,038
              Fine.             

298
00:10:39,138 --> 00:10:40,773
 Well, at least give me the part
      with the highest note     

299
00:10:40,873 --> 00:10:44,076
         so I can belt.         
        I'll take Bryce.        

300
00:10:44,176 --> 00:10:46,078
         - Anchor 1, 2,         
        and brick, right?       

301
00:10:46,178 --> 00:10:47,947
    - I think that's settled.   
           - OK, cool.          

302
00:10:48,047 --> 00:10:49,415
  Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. 

303
00:10:49,515 --> 00:10:50,816
   - Y'all better turn it out.  
    - Girl, you'll eat it up.   

304
00:10:50,916 --> 00:10:51,984
         You'll be fine.        
           - You will.          

305
00:10:52,084 --> 00:10:53,252
     - Girl, you know what?     
         You know what?         

306
00:10:53,352 --> 00:10:54,520
     It would be convenient     
      for you to remind me      

307
00:10:54,620 --> 00:10:56,155
      how good I am at what     
        you assign me to.       

308
00:10:56,255 --> 00:10:58,357
     - All right, all right,    
      all right, all right.     

309
00:10:58,457 --> 00:11:00,326
      - Gaslight, gatekeep,     
           girl boss.           

310
00:11:00,426 --> 00:11:02,194
   Yes, Dawn, you better work.  

311
00:11:02,294 --> 00:11:03,396
  - Let's make a show, ladies.  

312
00:11:03,496 --> 00:11:07,533
        [all chattering]        

313
00:11:07,633 --> 00:11:10,202
 - Candy Long and Connie Thick. 

314
00:11:10,302 --> 00:11:11,570
   - We are the first sketch.   

315
00:11:11,671 --> 00:11:13,305
 So it's, like, really up to us 

316
00:11:13,406 --> 00:11:14,974
     to, like, set the tone.    

317
00:11:15,074 --> 00:11:18,711
 For this week's maxi challenge,
     we're doing "RDR Live."    

318
00:11:18,811 --> 00:11:21,180
       And we're gonna be       
    performing these catches    

319
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,816
        in one take live.       

320
00:11:23,916 --> 00:11:25,051
             Like...            

321
00:11:25,151 --> 00:11:26,619
            [laughs]            

322
00:11:26,719 --> 00:11:29,355
         - First of all,        
      I can sense some, um,     

323
00:11:29,455 --> 00:11:31,424
 stern and unhappiness from you.

324
00:11:31,524 --> 00:11:36,529
  - I don't have a lot of warm, 
  fuzzy feelings about the way  

325
00:11:36,629 --> 00:11:38,564
    the news anchor situation   
         was approached.        

326
00:11:38,664 --> 00:11:41,801
 I just don't really appreciate 
 the card being played up like, 

327
00:11:41,901 --> 00:11:43,436
     well, Amanda and I are     
     already close, so like,    

328
00:11:43,536 --> 00:11:44,570
        it should be us.        

329
00:11:44,670 --> 00:11:46,338
      I'm like, so are you      
         a package deal?        

330
00:11:46,439 --> 00:11:47,473
    Like, is this dodgeball?    

331
00:11:47,573 --> 00:11:48,641
           - [laughs]           
             - Yeah.            

332
00:11:48,741 --> 00:11:50,609
         - Can I sit at         
     the lunch table, girls?    

333
00:11:50,710 --> 00:11:52,878
      I'm not someone who,      
   like, impersonates Barbra.   

334
00:11:52,978 --> 00:11:55,147
 It's one of the impersonations 
  that I try to stay away from. 

335
00:11:55,247 --> 00:11:57,950
   She is one of those people   
 that I hold in such high regard

336
00:11:58,050 --> 00:12:00,186
        that I don't want       
   to make fun of in any way.   

337
00:12:00,286 --> 00:12:01,620
         - First of all,        
       thinking about not       

338
00:12:01,721 --> 00:12:03,222
      disrespecting people      
   and all that kind of stuff,  

339
00:12:03,322 --> 00:12:04,523
         this is comedy.        
             - Yeah.            

340
00:12:04,623 --> 00:12:05,524
      - First and foremost.     

341
00:12:05,624 --> 00:12:08,527
    So like, hello gorgeous.    

342
00:12:08,627 --> 00:12:10,763
  - I do know so much about her 
      and I do love Barbra.     

343
00:12:10,863 --> 00:12:12,398
     When I saw "Funny Girl"    
       for the first time,      

344
00:12:12,498 --> 00:12:15,201
      I remember thinking,      
      this is a performance     

345
00:12:15,301 --> 00:12:16,569
  like I've never seen before.  

346
00:12:16,669 --> 00:12:18,471
    When she was 19 she made    
      her Broadway debut in     

347
00:12:18,571 --> 00:12:19,972
      "I Can Get It For You     
           Wholesale."          

348
00:12:20,072 --> 00:12:21,640
      She was actually one      
      of the first artists      

349
00:12:21,741 --> 00:12:22,842
        I owned on vinyl.       

350
00:12:22,942 --> 00:12:26,679
      Directed and starred      
           in "Yentl."          

351
00:12:26,779 --> 00:12:28,080
        "Funny Girl" was        
         her first movie        

352
00:12:28,180 --> 00:12:29,281
  and her second Broadway show  

353
00:12:29,381 --> 00:12:30,750
       and then she, like,      
       moved to Hollywood.      

354
00:12:30,850 --> 00:12:32,418
 They told her to get a nose job
     and she didn't and then    

355
00:12:32,518 --> 00:12:34,954
        she won the Oscar       
       her first time out.      

356
00:12:35,054 --> 00:12:37,623
   It intimidates me to, like,  
       try--you know what?      

357
00:12:37,723 --> 00:12:39,158
     Fuck the intimidation.     

358
00:12:39,258 --> 00:12:41,293
    I'm gonna feel this fear    
   and I'm gonna do it anyway.  

359
00:12:41,393 --> 00:12:44,663
      The spirit of Barbra      
    has never led me astray.    

360
00:12:44,764 --> 00:12:45,965
        I'm gonna be OK.        

361
00:12:46,065 --> 00:12:49,068
     So fuck you, fuck you,     
     fuck you, and fuck you.    

362
00:12:49,168 --> 00:12:51,670
  I'm gonna worry about Barbra. 

363
00:12:51,771 --> 00:12:54,273
 - I'll say Thick, you say Long,
   and you say Deck Services.   

364
00:12:54,373 --> 00:12:55,307
         - Call us at...        

365
00:12:55,407 --> 00:12:56,408
           - Thick...           

366
00:12:56,509 --> 00:12:58,911
          - And Long...         
      both: Deck services.      

367
00:12:59,011 --> 00:13:00,846
   - OK, I kind of like that.   

368
00:13:00,946 --> 00:13:02,782
   I kind of like that a lot,   
            actually.           

369
00:13:02,882 --> 00:13:04,517
   - As someone from New York,  
              like,             

370
00:13:04,617 --> 00:13:07,820
 "SNL" is a part of our culture.

371
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,624
 And I'm a cosplayer and I love 
       playing characters.      

372
00:13:11,724 --> 00:13:14,960
      So getting the chance     
     to do a weird character    

373
00:13:15,060 --> 00:13:18,063
       and make it funny,       
   this is what I'm made for.   

374
00:13:18,164 --> 00:13:20,065
    If there's anyone in this   
    that I'd want to be doing   

375
00:13:20,166 --> 00:13:21,500
    this role with, it's you.   

376
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,103
           I feel like          
      our sense of humor is     

377
00:13:24,203 --> 00:13:27,573
 very similar in the, like, oh, 

378
00:13:27,673 --> 00:13:30,409
       I'm such a slutty,       
        beautiful woman.        

379
00:13:30,509 --> 00:13:31,710
             - Sure.            
     Well, we're yet to see     

380
00:13:31,811 --> 00:13:34,914
     your sort of full sense    
        of humor emerge.        

381
00:13:35,014 --> 00:13:36,148
            - Truly.            

382
00:13:36,248 --> 00:13:38,450
         - But hopefully        
    it will with this, diva.    

383
00:13:38,551 --> 00:13:41,287
 I wanted to work with somebody 
 who was a little bit different.

384
00:13:41,387 --> 00:13:44,023
    And I feel like I kind of   
      got that with Megami      

385
00:13:44,123 --> 00:13:45,925
    more so than I would have   
         with Morphine.         

386
00:13:46,025 --> 00:13:47,493
      We're playing a game,     
         bitch, and I'm         

387
00:13:47,593 --> 00:13:49,128
     trying to be strategic.    

388
00:13:53,065 --> 00:13:57,503
   - Over here on Team Mirage,  
 we are struggling a little bit.

389
00:13:57,603 --> 00:13:59,438
     Initially I was excited    
       to work by myself.       

390
00:13:59,538 --> 00:14:01,907
  But then upon realizing that  
    everyone else has someone   

391
00:14:02,007 --> 00:14:04,210
      to run their ideas by     
    and bounce things off of    

392
00:14:04,310 --> 00:14:08,681
  and now I'm like, if you drop 
   the ball, it's all on you.   

393
00:14:08,781 --> 00:14:13,385
     So I don't have anybody    
    to blame besides myself.    

394
00:14:13,485 --> 00:14:16,689
      - I'm hearing we have     
  a GOP leader joining us live  

395
00:14:16,789 --> 00:14:18,557
      from South Carolina.      

396
00:14:18,657 --> 00:14:19,992
     Senator Lindsey Graham.    

397
00:14:20,092 --> 00:14:21,327
         - Hey, queens.         

398
00:14:21,427 --> 00:14:25,865
  Call me Lady G or La Lindsey. 

399
00:14:25,965 --> 00:14:29,034
      Now that I've gotten      
        to read my lines,       

400
00:14:29,134 --> 00:14:30,903
   I am completely panicking.   

401
00:14:31,003 --> 00:14:34,707
    After all these years of    
  hiding, I'm feeling my oats.  

402
00:14:34,807 --> 00:14:36,375
          I don't have          
       a Southern accent,       

403
00:14:36,475 --> 00:14:39,545
        and I don't know        
     who this character is.     

404
00:14:39,645 --> 00:14:41,180
  - It bothered me a little bit 
         that Plane Jane        

405
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,415
          was like, oh,         
  I'm a little worried for you  

406
00:14:43,515 --> 00:14:44,750
    to do this role with me.    

407
00:14:44,850 --> 00:14:45,918
   And I'm like, why the fuck   
      would you be worried?     

408
00:14:46,018 --> 00:14:46,919
   - But look, I have to say--  

409
00:14:47,019 --> 00:14:47,987
  - Because she thought she was 

410
00:14:48,087 --> 00:14:49,121
       gonna eat me alive       
          or something.         

411
00:14:49,221 --> 00:14:50,122
      - Yeah, it gave very      
          that energy.          

412
00:14:50,222 --> 00:14:51,156
        - She did, right?       

413
00:14:51,257 --> 00:14:52,258
       I didn't like that.      

414
00:14:52,358 --> 00:14:53,259
           - Sisters.           

415
00:14:53,359 --> 00:14:54,426
              - Hi.             
              - Hi.             

416
00:14:54,526 --> 00:14:55,828
  - Hi. How are y'all feeling?  

417
00:14:55,928 --> 00:14:57,396
      - Absolutely amazing.     
            - Ready.            

418
00:14:57,496 --> 00:14:58,564
           - Amazing.           

419
00:14:58,664 --> 00:14:59,899
      I wanted to make sure     
         you have a part        

420
00:14:59,999 --> 00:15:02,234
   where you can truly shine.   
              - Mm.             

421
00:15:02,334 --> 00:15:03,903
    - Do you think that maybe   
    Plane just wanted to have   

422
00:15:04,003 --> 00:15:06,038
 a clearer road to, like, excel?

423
00:15:06,138 --> 00:15:07,873
   - Yeah, I think she wanted   
    to clearer road to excel.   

424
00:15:07,973 --> 00:15:09,441
    - Fuck my drag, I guess.    

425
00:15:09,541 --> 00:15:10,542
           [laughter]           

426
00:15:10,643 --> 00:15:11,543
          - That's what         
       I'm saying, bitch.       

427
00:15:11,644 --> 00:15:13,078
     You better eat her up.     

428
00:15:13,178 --> 00:15:15,547
       - My biggest worry       
      is being overshadowed     

429
00:15:15,648 --> 00:15:18,450
   by Plane, because I already  
      know she can do this.     

430
00:15:18,550 --> 00:15:21,921
   So I kind of have to bring   
     my game up to her level    

431
00:15:22,021 --> 00:15:23,322
  or else I'll look like crap.  

432
00:15:23,422 --> 00:15:25,157
      - Good luck, bitches.     
          - Good luck.          

433
00:15:25,257 --> 00:15:26,158
    - On to the next corner.    

434
00:15:26,258 --> 00:15:27,393
      - We're like RuPaul.      

435
00:15:27,493 --> 00:15:28,560
       We're doing our own      
      little walk through.      

436
00:15:28,661 --> 00:15:29,728
         - Ooh. [laughs]        

437
00:15:29,828 --> 00:15:31,830
          - What a fake         
       fucking cunt bitch.      

438
00:15:31,931 --> 00:15:33,732
           - [laughs]           
        - Y'all horrible.       

439
00:15:33,832 --> 00:15:36,168
       I love being a part      
         of this group.         

440
00:15:36,268 --> 00:15:37,970
  - We're disgusting and shady. 

441
00:15:38,070 --> 00:15:40,105
     Now back to "RDR Live."    

442
00:15:41,573 --> 00:15:45,477
    both: Live from Tuckahoe,   
        it's "RDR Live."        

443
00:15:45,577 --> 00:15:46,946
           [laughter]           

444
00:15:47,046 --> 00:15:50,916
  - This week's maxi challenge  
  is "RDR Live" sketch comedy.  

445
00:15:51,016 --> 00:15:55,654
       This is a one take,      
  no mistakes, so no pressure.  

446
00:15:55,754 --> 00:15:57,122
             [moans]            

447
00:15:57,222 --> 00:15:58,557
        - Hey, ladykins.        

448
00:15:58,657 --> 00:16:00,092
         [all cheering]         

449
00:16:00,192 --> 00:16:03,162
     Now, we've got company.    

450
00:16:03,262 --> 00:16:05,464
            - Hello.            

451
00:16:05,564 --> 00:16:07,833
  - Say hello to Ross Mathews.  

452
00:16:07,933 --> 00:16:09,268
            all: Hi.            

453
00:16:09,368 --> 00:16:10,402
   - All right, come on down.   

454
00:16:10,502 --> 00:16:12,004
    - Ladies, oh, thank you.    

455
00:16:12,104 --> 00:16:16,208
     - OK, Morphine, Xunami,    
       Mhi'ya, and Geneva.      

456
00:16:16,308 --> 00:16:20,612
 Now, raise your hand if you've 
   done sketch comedy before.   

457
00:16:20,713 --> 00:16:22,047
              - Oh.             
            - Oh, OK.           

458
00:16:22,147 --> 00:16:23,048
       - This will be fun.      

459
00:16:23,148 --> 00:16:24,116
 - This ought to be really fun. 

460
00:16:24,216 --> 00:16:25,651
   - Any OnlyFans or anything?  

461
00:16:25,751 --> 00:16:27,019
              - No.             

462
00:16:27,119 --> 00:16:28,921
 - You're a little shy, I think.

463
00:16:29,021 --> 00:16:30,456
          Is this a big         
       challenge for you?       

464
00:16:30,556 --> 00:16:31,523
              - No.             
              - No.             

465
00:16:31,623 --> 00:16:33,792
        One word answer.        

466
00:16:33,892 --> 00:16:35,728
  - Getting in front of you two 
   is definitely intimidating.  

467
00:16:35,828 --> 00:16:37,396
             - Yeah.            

468
00:16:37,496 --> 00:16:39,698
 - I kind of like, I'm like this
  when I'm in front of you two. 

469
00:16:39,798 --> 00:16:40,899
       - Do you perform in      
        the clubs, right?       

470
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,267
             - Yes.             

471
00:16:42,368 --> 00:16:43,535
   - OK, so when you're in the  
       clubs, you can't be      

472
00:16:43,635 --> 00:16:44,737
          timid, right?         
              - No.             

473
00:16:44,837 --> 00:16:46,939
         - It's when you        
       are able to express      

474
00:16:47,039 --> 00:16:48,841
       yourself openly is       
        when the audience       

475
00:16:48,941 --> 00:16:50,242
   can fall in love with you.   

476
00:16:50,342 --> 00:16:53,312
     They will root for you     
  because they feel a kinship.  

477
00:16:53,412 --> 00:16:55,914
   But if you have a wall up,   
       they can't get in.       

478
00:16:56,015 --> 00:16:57,516
   So you want to let them in.  

479
00:16:57,616 --> 00:17:00,352
      - Ru's just said that     
       I'm reserved again.      

480
00:17:00,452 --> 00:17:02,755
         But back home,         
   I'm the life of the party.   

481
00:17:02,855 --> 00:17:04,990
  So I have to show the judges  
       that I'm having fun      

482
00:17:05,090 --> 00:17:07,993
       and show them that       
    I can be very stupid too.   

483
00:17:08,093 --> 00:17:11,397
       - Geneva, last week      
   you were in the bottom two.  

484
00:17:11,497 --> 00:17:13,932
  There will be a teleprompter, 
  you know, to read the stuff.  

485
00:17:14,033 --> 00:17:15,134
   Are you nervous about that?  

486
00:17:15,234 --> 00:17:16,435
    - I used to be a cashier,   
            so I know           

487
00:17:16,535 --> 00:17:18,237
         a lot of, like,        
      memorizing things is      

488
00:17:18,337 --> 00:17:19,438
  something I used to do, like, 

489
00:17:19,538 --> 00:17:20,639
         with the fruits        
    and vegetables and stuff.   

490
00:17:20,739 --> 00:17:22,141
              - Oh.             

491
00:17:22,241 --> 00:17:24,510
    - It'll be interesting to   
 speak to you after you do this.

492
00:17:24,610 --> 00:17:25,577
           [laughter]           

493
00:17:25,677 --> 00:17:26,812
    - They're not buying it.    

494
00:17:26,912 --> 00:17:28,247
         - I'm not, no.         

495
00:17:28,347 --> 00:17:30,215
      We've sat on this end     
          of the table          

496
00:17:30,315 --> 00:17:32,151
         and heard this         
        exact same spiel.       

497
00:17:32,251 --> 00:17:33,285
  Oh, no, we're gonna be fine.  

498
00:17:33,385 --> 00:17:35,020
         Oh, she crazy.         
      We're gonna be cute.      

499
00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:36,288
       Oh, girl, you know.      

500
00:17:36,388 --> 00:17:37,456
      - I used to work with     
      fruit and vegetables.     

501
00:17:37,556 --> 00:17:39,124
          I'll be fine.         
           [laughter]           

502
00:17:39,224 --> 00:17:41,160
   - All right, well, go back,  
      rehearse your lines,      

503
00:17:41,260 --> 00:17:42,528
       and make us laugh.       

504
00:17:42,628 --> 00:17:44,096
           - Gracias.           
          - Thank you.          

505
00:17:44,196 --> 00:17:47,900
      - All right, Nymphia,     
  Mirage, Sapphira, and Plasma. 

506
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,268
          - Hi, hi, hi.         

507
00:17:49,368 --> 00:17:53,105
    - You are the Barbra Shop   
      Quartet, which means      

508
00:17:53,205 --> 00:17:54,273
    that Mirage is the host.    

509
00:17:54,373 --> 00:17:55,274
             - Yes.             
             - Yes.             

510
00:17:55,374 --> 00:17:57,409
   - OK. Are you Barbra fans?   

511
00:17:57,509 --> 00:17:58,477
             - Yeah.            
             - Yeah.            

512
00:17:58,577 --> 00:18:00,612
           - You are?           
    - I am a huge Barbra fan.   

513
00:18:00,712 --> 00:18:02,781
  "Don't Rain On My Parade" was 
      like my first, like,      

514
00:18:02,881 --> 00:18:04,116
   singing in the shower song.  

515
00:18:04,216 --> 00:18:06,585
        - And did you all       
       choose these roles?      

516
00:18:09,254 --> 00:18:10,756
  - What's--what's this about?  

517
00:18:10,856 --> 00:18:15,194
  - I was really, really hoping 
 for a role in a different skit 

518
00:18:15,294 --> 00:18:16,762
  being one of the news people. 

519
00:18:16,862 --> 00:18:19,465
   The mid-century safety zone  
           that I have          

520
00:18:19,565 --> 00:18:23,268
 is not something I'd like to be
 doing the whole time I'm here. 

521
00:18:23,368 --> 00:18:24,770
      - Don't overthink it.     

522
00:18:24,870 --> 00:18:27,506
    If you do a great Barbra    
 and it's a chance to do Barbra,

523
00:18:27,606 --> 00:18:29,074
           do Barbra.           

524
00:18:29,174 --> 00:18:32,344
    - I can't help but wonder   
       if Dawn feels like       

525
00:18:32,444 --> 00:18:35,414
     she has royally screwed    
      herself by giving me      

526
00:18:35,514 --> 00:18:37,883
   something I am perfect for.  

527
00:18:37,983 --> 00:18:39,952
 - And Mirage, you're the host. 

528
00:18:40,052 --> 00:18:41,220
 Now, how did you get that role?

529
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:42,654
  Did you have to fight for it? 

530
00:18:42,754 --> 00:18:47,493
   - It wasn't really a fight,  
     necessarily, but, um...    

531
00:18:47,593 --> 00:18:49,194
    - So what happened was...   
        - What happened?        

532
00:18:49,294 --> 00:18:50,429
        Yeah, thank you.        
       - Give me the tea.       

533
00:18:50,529 --> 00:18:52,731
    - I wanted to be the host   
    and I thought to myself,    

534
00:18:52,831 --> 00:18:53,866
  no, I want to be in a group.  

535
00:18:53,966 --> 00:18:55,167
  I want to work with somebody. 
            - Uh-huh.           

536
00:18:55,267 --> 00:18:57,603
       - And so I decided,      
     I'm gonna be Lowenstein    

537
00:18:57,703 --> 00:18:58,871
     and you're gonna host.     

538
00:18:58,971 --> 00:19:01,173
             - Huh.             
        - OK. All right.        

539
00:19:01,273 --> 00:19:04,443
     - Sapphira saying that     
      she gave me this role     

540
00:19:04,543 --> 00:19:07,346
     is putting in Ru's head    
     that it's not something    

541
00:19:07,446 --> 00:19:09,414
   that I felt confident about  
        and that I picked       

542
00:19:09,515 --> 00:19:10,482
      and that I stand by.      

543
00:19:10,582 --> 00:19:12,885
         - I sense some         
        hocus pocus here.       

544
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:14,086
            - Right?            
             - Yes.             

545
00:19:14,186 --> 00:19:15,220
           [laughter]           

546
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,588
         I certainly do.        

547
00:19:16,688 --> 00:19:17,689
  - Is there any truth to that? 

548
00:19:17,789 --> 00:19:19,324
            - No, no.           

549
00:19:19,424 --> 00:19:21,727
  - Oh, girl, come on, please.  
        - Really? Really?       

550
00:19:21,827 --> 00:19:24,163
  - No, you know, if she wants  
    to do it, she can do it.    

551
00:19:24,263 --> 00:19:26,932
 I realized that being the host,
       I could shine a lot      

552
00:19:27,032 --> 00:19:29,635
   or it could be a disaster.   

553
00:19:29,735 --> 00:19:32,571
   I don't think it'll ever be  
  a disaster when I'm involved. 

554
00:19:32,671 --> 00:19:34,773
     However, I want to see     
     what magic can be made     

555
00:19:34,873 --> 00:19:36,208
      with another person.      

556
00:19:36,308 --> 00:19:38,043
        - OK. All right.        

557
00:19:38,143 --> 00:19:39,545
       - Mirage is having       
        second thoughts?        

558
00:19:39,645 --> 00:19:41,113
     That's not my problem.     

559
00:19:41,213 --> 00:19:42,114
 - All right, thank you ladies. 

560
00:19:42,214 --> 00:19:44,116
          - Thank you.          
          - Thank you.          

561
00:19:44,216 --> 00:19:45,517
      - Ladies, listen up.      

562
00:19:45,617 --> 00:19:47,052
       Listen up, queens.       

563
00:19:47,152 --> 00:19:51,223
   Now, we can't wait to watch  
      "RDR Live" tomorrow.      

564
00:19:51,323 --> 00:19:54,359
       And on the runway,       
         category is...         

565
00:19:54,459 --> 00:19:56,728
      Night of 1,000 Chers.     

566
00:19:56,828 --> 00:19:59,064
              Whoa!             
         [all cheering]         

567
00:19:59,164 --> 00:20:00,832
     - "Wagon Wheel Watusi."    

568
00:20:00,933 --> 00:20:02,868
      - So snap out of it!      

569
00:20:02,968 --> 00:20:04,736
  - And don't fuck it up, man!  

570
00:20:04,836 --> 00:20:06,438
         [all cheering]         

571
00:20:06,538 --> 00:20:07,873
          - Yes, bitch.         

572
00:20:07,973 --> 00:20:09,975
         [upbeat music]         

573
00:20:10,075 --> 00:20:11,343
       - Hello, gorgeous.       

574
00:20:11,443 --> 00:20:12,477
       - Hello, gorgeous.       

575
00:20:12,578 --> 00:20:13,812
       - Yellow, gorgeous.      

576
00:20:13,912 --> 00:20:15,581
 - It's another elimination day.

577
00:20:15,681 --> 00:20:17,516
  Another bitch got to go home. 

578
00:20:17,616 --> 00:20:18,850
    But it's not gonna be me.   

579
00:20:18,951 --> 00:20:22,321
   - [singing] It's a new day   
        in the Werk Room        

580
00:20:22,421 --> 00:20:24,556
           - I'm ready          
      for my Oscar moment.      

581
00:20:24,656 --> 00:20:29,061
    I am starting to feel the   
  brickness flowing through me. 

582
00:20:29,161 --> 00:20:30,596
   I'm thinking like a brick.   

583
00:20:30,696 --> 00:20:32,931
   I'm painting like a brick.   

584
00:20:33,031 --> 00:20:36,768
  Or you could say I was, like, 
      painting like Amanda.     

585
00:20:36,868 --> 00:20:38,570
        It's essentially        
         the same thing.        

586
00:20:38,670 --> 00:20:40,739
            [laughs]            

587
00:20:40,839 --> 00:20:42,374
   - How are you feeling about  
     your little hosting gig    

588
00:20:42,474 --> 00:20:43,942
            tonight?            
         - I'm excited.         

589
00:20:44,042 --> 00:20:45,277
             - Yeah?            
  Do you host a lot back home?  

590
00:20:45,377 --> 00:20:46,378
             - Yeah.            

591
00:20:46,478 --> 00:20:47,713
        Bar gigs and that       
         kind of thing,         

592
00:20:47,813 --> 00:20:49,381
    just like a little show,    
   quick little intro, outro.   

593
00:20:49,481 --> 00:20:51,116
     - What have you hosted     
      outside of bar stuff?     

594
00:20:51,216 --> 00:20:53,785
     - We had our very first    
   Indigenous Pride in Vegas.   

595
00:20:53,885 --> 00:20:54,820
              - Oh.             
             - Work.            

596
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,021
      - Are you Indigenous?     
             - Yeah.            

597
00:20:56,121 --> 00:20:57,222
           - Oh, cool.          

598
00:20:57,322 --> 00:20:59,057
     - I'm Mexican American     
           and Apache.          

599
00:20:59,157 --> 00:21:02,294
           And hosting          
  Indigenous Pride in Las Vegas 

600
00:21:02,394 --> 00:21:03,996
      was a big deal for me     
    because drag is something   

601
00:21:04,096 --> 00:21:05,330
        that's very, very       
        important to me,        

602
00:21:05,430 --> 00:21:07,332
  and so is where I come from.  

603
00:21:07,432 --> 00:21:10,669
   That's the first time I've   
 ever mixed drag and my culture.

604
00:21:10,769 --> 00:21:11,770
             - Yeah.            
         - Those worlds         

605
00:21:11,870 --> 00:21:13,572
    had never even connected    
          in my brain.          

606
00:21:13,672 --> 00:21:16,842
 It was special for me to bring 
   these two pieces of myself   

607
00:21:16,942 --> 00:21:20,012
   together in a way that was   
    celebrated and respected.   

608
00:21:20,112 --> 00:21:21,747
       And it means a lot.      

609
00:21:25,484 --> 00:21:28,153
   - Geneva, when did you come  
        here to America?        

610
00:21:28,253 --> 00:21:32,291
   - So my parents brought me   
    over to the United States   

611
00:21:32,391 --> 00:21:35,193
        when I was around       
        seven years old.        

612
00:21:35,294 --> 00:21:37,729
 So that's when they decided to 
  come over here to give myself 

613
00:21:37,829 --> 00:21:39,731
     and my brother that was    
      just born at the time     

614
00:21:39,831 --> 00:21:41,667
      better opportunities      
 and better life, and you know, 

615
00:21:41,767 --> 00:21:43,001
       the American dream.      

616
00:21:43,101 --> 00:21:44,536
    But you know, I got legal   
       status to be here.       

617
00:21:44,636 --> 00:21:46,104
      - Are you a DREAMer?      
            - Uh-huh.           

618
00:21:46,204 --> 00:21:47,472
            - Me too!           
            - Really?           

619
00:21:47,572 --> 00:21:48,573
             - Yes.             
             - Yes.             

620
00:21:48,674 --> 00:21:49,975
          - Oh, my God.         

621
00:21:50,075 --> 00:21:51,910
   Yeah, I really didn't know,  
    like, what I was gonna do   

622
00:21:52,010 --> 00:21:53,278
  if that hadn't gone through.  

623
00:21:53,378 --> 00:21:55,347
          It was during         
    the Obama administration.   

624
00:21:55,447 --> 00:21:57,149
     We literally would not     
       be able to be here       

625
00:21:57,249 --> 00:21:58,250
     if it wasn't for that.     
           - Exactly.           

626
00:21:58,350 --> 00:21:59,251
         Yeah, honestly.        

627
00:21:59,351 --> 00:22:00,686
     - So thank you, Obama.     

628
00:22:00,786 --> 00:22:02,621
           [laughter]           

629
00:22:02,721 --> 00:22:06,825
    DACA stands for Deferred    
 Action for Childhood Arrivals. 

630
00:22:06,925 --> 00:22:10,395
    And it is a law that came   
     to effect to grant kids    

631
00:22:10,495 --> 00:22:13,198
  with no papers a work permit  
         and, you know,         

632
00:22:13,298 --> 00:22:14,733
    a Social Security number    
             so that            

633
00:22:14,833 --> 00:22:18,270
   they can be another member   
        of this society.        

634
00:22:18,370 --> 00:22:22,040
      DACA is why I'm able      
     to, like, legally work     

635
00:22:22,140 --> 00:22:24,476
   and also be on "Drag Race."  

636
00:22:24,576 --> 00:22:25,677
  We're not citizens, you know. 

637
00:22:25,777 --> 00:22:27,045
  We're kind of like in limbo.  

638
00:22:27,145 --> 00:22:30,182
       We're legally here       
  because we were already here, 

639
00:22:30,282 --> 00:22:35,787
        but we don't have       
  the full rights of a citizen. 

640
00:22:35,887 --> 00:22:38,657
   - So when it comes to DACA,  
   we're kind of always, like,  

641
00:22:38,757 --> 00:22:41,360
   not 100% I guess feel safe,  
       because at any time      

642
00:22:41,460 --> 00:22:42,561
     they can just be like,     
         you know what?         

643
00:22:42,661 --> 00:22:43,795
      We're gonna take this     
         away from you.         

644
00:22:43,895 --> 00:22:45,731
       And it's very scary      
          to think that         

645
00:22:45,831 --> 00:22:47,099
  that could be a possibility.  

646
00:22:47,199 --> 00:22:49,634
      - When I got the call     
     for this, I literally,     

647
00:22:49,735 --> 00:22:53,638
       I was like bawling,      
      because I was like--      

648
00:22:53,739 --> 00:22:56,141
    I was like, I'm finally,    
       like, having a shot      

649
00:22:56,241 --> 00:22:57,642
    to, like, live my dreams,   
            you know?           

650
00:22:57,743 --> 00:22:59,411
       Like, I don't know.      

651
00:22:59,511 --> 00:23:00,645
         Sorry. [laughs]        

652
00:23:00,746 --> 00:23:02,280
        - This is, like,        
  something big for us because  

653
00:23:02,381 --> 00:23:05,350
    I believe we're the first   
    DACA queens on the show.    

654
00:23:05,450 --> 00:23:07,452
       And you know, like,      
   we kind of have this moment  

655
00:23:07,552 --> 00:23:09,621
  where we kind of get a little 
            teared up           

656
00:23:09,721 --> 00:23:11,022
       because everything       
       we've been through       

657
00:23:11,123 --> 00:23:13,024
         and everything         
     we have to go through.     

658
00:23:13,125 --> 00:23:14,960
        I don't know why        
    it gets me so emotional.    

659
00:23:15,060 --> 00:23:17,829
   I guess because we grew up   
       not really showing       

660
00:23:17,929 --> 00:23:19,798
     that much of affection,    
      because we had to be      

661
00:23:19,898 --> 00:23:23,502
 strong, you know, living in the
  United States, you know, so.  

662
00:23:28,774 --> 00:23:31,042
      - Do any of you girls     
        have an OnlyFans?       

663
00:23:31,143 --> 00:23:33,078
        - Well, I don't.        

664
00:23:33,178 --> 00:23:34,980
             But...             
   - It seems like you might.   

665
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,482
  - So this is kind of random,  
         but my day job         

666
00:23:37,582 --> 00:23:39,251
  is ghostwriting on OnlyFans.  

667
00:23:39,351 --> 00:23:40,952
             - What?            
              - No.             

668
00:23:41,052 --> 00:23:42,421
          - Yeah, girl.         

669
00:23:42,521 --> 00:23:45,357
   I work for this agency that  
   manages OnlyFans creators.   

670
00:23:45,457 --> 00:23:48,894
      So I respond to their     
        messages for them       

671
00:23:48,994 --> 00:23:52,197
    as them while they're on    
 vacation in fucking Bora Bora. 

672
00:23:52,297 --> 00:23:54,599
      It's like all these,      
      like, straight girls.     

673
00:23:54,699 --> 00:23:55,934
         And I just sit         
        in their account.       

674
00:23:56,034 --> 00:23:57,602
    - Oh, you do it for--it's

00:30:27,725 --> 00:30:31,329
   And that means everyone is   
  looking forward to one thing. 

823
00:30:31,429 --> 00:30:35,700
      - Sitting on a nice,      
      big, beautiful deck.      

824
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,068
         - That's right.

        to long and wide

          to the side.          

832
00:30:56,955 --> 00:30:58,823
     - All that can be tough    
       to handle for some       

833
00:30:58,923 --> 00:31:01,359
     deck service companies,    
           but not us.          

834
00:31:01,459 --> 00:31:03,328
       - Every one of our

          I'm Richard.          

840
00:31:16,908 --> 00:31:19,577
    Now, I was satisfied with   
  what I had going on up front. 

841
00:31:19,677 --> 00:31:23,314
  So Connie and Candy suggested 
    I try a deck in the rear.   

842
00:31:23,414 --> 00:31:26,517
      Now, I never thought      
    I'd be that kind of guy,    

843
00:31:26,618 --> 00:31:29,921
       but now I know that      
     when it comes to decks,    

844
00:31:30,021 --> 00:31:33,391
        Thick and Long is       
    definitely the way to go.   

845
00:31:33,491 --> 00:31:35,026
           [laughter]           

846

        My name is Barbra

968
00:37:25,409 --> 00:37:30,114
        Not an onion roll       

969

 Hey, Doc, what's up with that? 

978
00:37:51,936 --> 00:37:54,538
     It just seems so unfair    

979
00:37:54,639 --> 00:37:56,540

 - Wow, this dress is so tight. 

1021
00:39:46,083 --> 00:39:48,486
      I wonder if she could     
        "snap out of it."       

1022
00:39:48,586 --> 00:39:51,522
    - If she does, maybe her

1037
00:40:28,259 --> 00:40:29,794

        I think. [laughs]       

1050
00:40:59,356 --> 00:41:00,791

         all around me.         

1060
00:41:21,111 --> 00:41:22,646
  - If I could turn back time,  

1061
00:41:22,746 --> 00:41:24,148
           I'd just go

    - There is nothing plain    
           about her.           

1065
00:41:32,389 --> 00:41:35,860
   - It's the sheer mesh gown   

1066
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,062
     overlaid with crystals     

1067

    and stones and appliques.   

1068
00:41:40,297 --> 00:41:44,134

  a stunning Bob Mackie piece.  

1069
00:41:44,235 --> 00:41:48,472
     And who else to do that    
      piece justice but me?     

1070
00:41:48,572 --> 00:41:50,307
    - No burger finger there.

        Cher doll, 2001.        

1073
00:41:57,948 --> 00:41:59,016
       - When she's done,       
         she can just go        

1074
00:41:59,116 --> 00:42:00,317
 take a shower with the loofah. 

1075
00:42:00,417 --> 00:42:01,385

       with this beautiful      

1080
00:42:12,363 --> 00:42:15,566
      flowing gown element      
         on the bottom.         

1081
00:42:15,666 --> 00:42:17,268
       Lap it up, kittens.      

1082
00:42:17,368 --> 00:42:20,571
       - Life in plastic,       
         it's fantastic.        

1083
00:42:20,671 --> 00:42:24,909
    - Dawn as mod Cher, 1966.   

1084
00:42:25,009 --> 00:42:27,711
  - How many Muppets had to die 
        for that jacket?        

1085
00:42:27,811 --> 00:42:29,747
      - I'm giving you some     
        classic '60s Cher       

1086
00:42:29,847 --> 00:42:32,283
  with some classic 2020s Dawn. 

1087
00:42:32,383 --> 00:42:33,817
           I took this          
     black and white picture    

1088
00:42:33,918 --> 00:42:35,719
        and we don't know       
   what color the fur coat is,  

1089
00:42:35,819 --> 00:42:38,389
     so I went with a little    
   orange and blue color story  

1090
00:42:38,489 --> 00:42:40,824
         because I think        
    it's really fun and '60s.   

1091
00:42:40,925 --> 00:42:43,227
         And then boom,         
        slut waist, mama.       

1092
00:42:43,327 --> 00:42:45,062
           Always. OK?          

1093
00:42:45,162 --> 00:42:46,697
            - This is           
     the sunny side of Cher.    

1094
00:42:46,797 --> 00:42:48,065
          - Yes it is.          
           - Oh, wow.           

1095
00:42:48,165 --> 00:42:49,733
         She's giving me        
        a "Sunny Boner."        

1096
00:42:49,833 --> 00:42:52,403
           - [laughs]           

1097
00:42:52,503 --> 00:42:57,608
    Q from the Sonny and Cher   
       Comedy Hour, 1973.       

1098
00:42:57,708 --> 00:43:00,611
        - Black and white       
       and Cher all over.       

1099
00:43:00,711 --> 00:43:02,613
  - Cher is go big or go home,  

1100
00:43:02,713 --> 00:43:04,248
          and you know          
   I like to make a statement   

1101
00:43:04,348 --> 00:43:05,482
    when I walk in the room.    

1102
00:43:05,583 --> 00:43:08,619
    I am feeling very poised    
           and elegant          

1103
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:10,220
         because I know         
       the body is right,       

1104
00:43:10,321 --> 00:43:12,089
  and I know the face is right. 

1105
00:43:12,189 --> 00:43:14,858
    I'm Cher, bitch. [laughs]   

1106
00:43:14,959 --> 00:43:18,128
       - I wonder if she's      
        wearing a ze-bra.       

1107
00:43:18,228 --> 00:43:21,565
    - Plasma, Met Gala 1985.    

1108
00:43:21,665 --> 00:43:24,868
       - She is doing more      
      than her fair share.      

1109
00:43:24,969 --> 00:43:28,172
        - I'm giving you        
       dark lady eleganza.      

1110
00:43:28,272 --> 00:43:31,909
    It's a Bob Mackie dress,    
   but it's not over the top.   

1111
00:43:32,009 --> 00:43:34,378
     It's just pure glamour.    

1112
00:43:34,478 --> 00:43:37,982
    I just feel like a glass    
   of champagne came to life.   

1113
00:43:38,082 --> 00:43:39,717
  - It's not easy being a diva. 

1114
00:43:39,817 --> 00:43:42,219
       - Tell me about it.      

1115
00:43:42,319 --> 00:43:43,754
         - Nymphia Wind.        

1116
00:43:43,854 --> 00:43:48,325
  Cher Egyptian goddess, 1979.  

1117
00:43:48,425 --> 00:43:50,127
     Ankh if you love Cher.     

1118
00:43:50,227 --> 00:43:51,395
          - Ankh, ankh.         

1119
00:43:51,495 --> 00:43:53,731
        - I'm very naked,       
       but I'm giving you       

1120
00:43:53,831 --> 00:43:58,002
    mysterious Egyptian lady    
    with fierce cutting eyes,   

1121
00:43:58,102 --> 00:44:01,038
       spreading her wings      
    and letting the world see   

1122
00:44:01,138 --> 00:44:04,675
   her glorious Egyptian body.  

1123
00:44:04,775 --> 00:44:06,710
 - I can see her Nefer-titties. 

1124
00:44:06,810 --> 00:44:08,412
           - [laughs]           

1125
00:44:08,512 --> 00:44:13,651
       Sapphira as Cher in      
   the Vegas residency, 2017.   

1126
00:44:13,751 --> 00:44:15,319
             - Wow.             

1127
00:44:15,419 --> 00:44:16,687
            - Mm-hmm.           
     That's a Vegas buffet.     

1128
00:44:16,787 --> 00:44:18,022
           [laughter]           

1129
00:44:18,122 --> 00:44:19,923
 - Cher is the queen of excess, 

1130
00:44:20,024 --> 00:44:21,558
     and I'm the drag queen     
           of excess.           

1131
00:44:21,659 --> 00:44:23,694
       So this is a match       
         made in heaven.        

1132
00:44:23,794 --> 00:44:25,362
      I'm wearing this blue     
       shoulder piece that      

1133
00:44:25,462 --> 00:44:27,665
   has 100 pheasant feathers.   

1134
00:44:27,765 --> 00:44:28,999
         It is gorgeous.        

1135
00:44:29,099 --> 00:44:31,835
    This is a woman's world,    
        and I am a woman.       

1136
00:44:31,935 --> 00:44:32,836
 - You know what color this is? 

1137
00:44:32,936 --> 00:44:33,837
          - What color?         

1138
00:44:33,937 --> 00:44:34,905
         - Elijah Blue.         

1139
00:44:35,005 --> 00:44:37,675
             - Yes.             

1140
00:44:38,542 --> 00:44:39,643
       - Welcome, queens.       

1141
00:44:39,743 --> 00:44:41,278
    I've made some decisions.   

1142
00:44:41,378 --> 00:44:42,613
        [dramatic music]        

1143
00:44:42,713 --> 00:44:45,315
    But first I need to ask.    

1144
00:44:45,416 --> 00:44:50,688
  Sapphira, do you wish to use  
 your immunity potion this week?

1145
00:44:54,525 --> 00:44:56,894
   - I think I'm gonna say no.  

1146
00:44:56,994 --> 00:44:58,662
          - Very well.          

1147
00:44:58,762 --> 00:45:03,801
     Plane Jane, do you wish    
  to use your immunity potion?  

1148
00:45:03,901 --> 00:45:05,936
      - Not this week, Ru.      

1149
00:45:06,036 --> 00:45:07,471
          - Very well.          

1150
00:45:07,571 --> 00:45:10,941
 Queens, when I call your name, 
      please step forward.      

1151
00:45:11,041 --> 00:45:12,910
          Xunami Muse.          

1152
00:45:13,010 --> 00:45:14,978
            Morphine.           

1153
00:45:15,079 --> 00:45:16,747
             Megami.            

1154
00:45:16,847 --> 00:45:18,482
             Amanda.            

1155
00:45:18,582 --> 00:45:19,983
              Dawn.             

1156
00:45:20,084 --> 00:45:21,752
            Nymphia.            

1157
00:45:21,852 --> 00:45:24,455
            Sapphira.           

1158
00:45:24,555 --> 00:45:26,724
    Ladies, you are all safe.   

1159
00:45:28,459 --> 00:45:30,394
    You may leave the stage.    

1160
00:45:36,100 --> 00:45:39,970
 Ladies, you represent the tops 
  and the bottoms of the week.  

1161
00:45:40,070 --> 00:45:43,040
          Now it's time         
   for the judges' critiques.   

1162
00:45:43,140 --> 00:45:44,708
        Up first, Mhi'ya.       

1163
00:45:44,808 --> 00:45:46,910
      - I was a little bit      
       worried about you.       

1164
00:45:47,010 --> 00:45:50,647
    When I saw you swing for    
 the fences, I was so thrilled. 

1165
00:45:50,748 --> 00:45:52,616
  - I just wanted to let loose  
        and show you guys       

1166
00:45:52,716 --> 00:45:54,518
      that I can let loose      
          and have fun.         

1167
00:45:54,618 --> 00:45:55,652
      - You were committed.     

1168
00:45:55,753 --> 00:45:57,121
        And to me, that's       
    the most important part,    

1169
00:45:57,221 --> 00:45:59,623
     especially on any kind     
     of sketch comedy show,     

1170
00:45:59,723 --> 00:46:00,891
    because things go wrong.    

1171
00:46:00,991 --> 00:46:04,328
    - My real issue had to do   
        with just levels.       

1172
00:46:04,428 --> 00:46:05,963
      I wanted more nuance.     

1173
00:46:06,063 --> 00:46:08,031
  I wanted more of a story arc. 

1174
00:46:08,132 --> 00:46:10,734
       - Your Cher look is      
       not really the look      

1175
00:46:10,834 --> 00:46:12,669
      that you were trying      
           to achieve.          

1176
00:46:12,770 --> 00:46:16,206
 Cher no matter what, even when 
   she does her natural hair,   

1177
00:46:16,306 --> 00:46:18,142
       she will make sure       
        it is drag hair.        

1178
00:46:18,242 --> 00:46:19,977
            And this,           
     it needs to be dragged.    

1179
00:46:20,077 --> 00:46:21,879
          - Can you do          
      a Cher impersonation?     

1180
00:46:21,979 --> 00:46:23,814
         Let me see it.         

1181
00:46:23,914 --> 00:46:25,549
          - I'm great.          

1182
00:46:25,649 --> 00:46:28,051
           [laughter]           

1183
00:46:28,152 --> 00:46:30,220
      - Cher meets Kermit.      

1184
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:31,555
         - Do it again.         
          Do it again.          

1185
00:46:31,655 --> 00:46:32,890
          Do it again.          

1186
00:46:32,990 --> 00:46:36,126
    - Yeah, do it this time,    
    but flick your hair back.   

1187
00:46:36,226 --> 00:46:37,194
          - I'm great.          

1188
00:46:37,294 --> 00:46:41,398
           [laughter]           

1189
00:46:43,634 --> 00:46:45,269
     - Oh, my God, that meme    
       will live forever.       

1190
00:46:45,369 --> 00:46:47,271
      It's gonna haunt you      
   for the rest of your life!   

1191
00:46:47,371 --> 00:46:48,872
           [laughter]           

1192
00:46:48,972 --> 00:46:50,474
            Amazing.            

1193
00:46:50,574 --> 00:46:53,076
      Up next, Geneva Karr.     

1194
00:46:53,177 --> 00:46:54,645
      - So my question is,      

1195
00:46:54,745 --> 00:46:56,547
           do you know          
     who Lindsey Graham is?     

1196
00:46:56,647 --> 00:46:58,348
              - No.             
              - OK.             

1197
00:46:58,448 --> 00:47:00,117
    That was obvious and that   
    was part of the problem.    

1198
00:47:00,217 --> 00:47:01,985
          - Excuse me.          

1199
00:47:02,085 --> 00:47:04,121
           - There was          
      a missed opportunity.     

1200
00:47:04,221 --> 00:47:07,191
    Because if you had really   
    hit the nail on the head,   

1201
00:47:07,291 --> 00:47:09,459
    it would have been great.   

1202
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:10,794
      - I love the outfit.      

1203
00:47:10,894 --> 00:47:12,763
      I said it's like Cher     
      meets Britney Spears.     

1204
00:47:12,863 --> 00:47:14,665
     It has a little, like,     
            "Circus."           

1205
00:47:14,765 --> 00:47:17,501
 - But you know, I would just be
    careful with proportions,   

1206
00:47:17,601 --> 00:47:19,503
     because you have a long    
      torso, and you don't      

1207
00:47:19,603 --> 00:47:21,872
   want to really cut in half.  

1208
00:47:21,972 --> 00:47:23,707
        Up next, Mirage.        

1209
00:47:23,807 --> 00:47:25,042
      - You were the host.      

1210
00:47:25,142 --> 00:47:26,543
       There were moments       
    when I saw that you were    

1211
00:47:26,643 --> 00:47:29,613
  comfortable with it and there 
    were just a couple times    

1212
00:47:29,713 --> 00:47:31,315
       when the jokes got       
         away from you.         

1213
00:47:31,415 --> 00:47:34,718
     - You were telegraphing    
    that the joke was coming.   

1214
00:47:34,818 --> 00:47:37,120
    And the key is to let it    
       come out naturally       

1215
00:47:37,221 --> 00:47:40,524
     so that we don't know,     
  oh, here's where the joke is. 

1216
00:47:40,624 --> 00:47:43,260
   - Now, Sarah, you've hosted  
      "SNL" how many times?     

1217
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:45,629
          - I've hosted         
       three solo and I've      

1218
00:47:45,729 --> 00:47:47,164
   guest starred a few times.   

1219
00:47:47,264 --> 00:47:49,566
        Not enough to get       
  the five time jacket though.  

1220
00:47:49,666 --> 00:47:50,968
           - [laughs]           

1221
00:47:51,068 --> 00:47:52,803
   - This look is really fun.   

1222
00:47:52,903 --> 00:47:54,171
    You look beautiful in it.   

1223
00:47:54,271 --> 00:47:55,539
       - I love this look.      

1224
00:47:55,639 --> 00:47:56,907
      I don't love the hair     
    with it, because the hair   

1225
00:47:57,007 --> 00:48:00,377
         says '60s Cher         
   and the dress is late '70s.  

1226
00:48:00,477 --> 00:48:02,279
     It's interesting to see    
     you young kids sort of,    

1227
00:48:02,379 --> 00:48:04,748
            you know,           
   mix things up a little bit.  

1228
00:48:04,848 --> 00:48:07,851
       I'm like wait, no,       
   no, not that hair with it.   

1229
00:48:07,951 --> 00:48:10,153
   Up next, not so Plane Jane.  

1230
00:48:10,254 --> 00:48:12,589
       - You were so funny      
        in the challenge.       

1231
00:48:12,689 --> 00:48:14,091
        - I'm Candy Long.       

1232
00:48:14,191 --> 00:48:16,693
    - From the first line you   
  uttered, the way you said it, 

1233
00:48:16,793 --> 00:48:18,462
      I knew who you were.      

1234
00:48:18,562 --> 00:48:19,963
    - You didn't overplay it.   

1235
00:48:20,063 --> 00:48:23,433
  You underplayed it, which is  
    really the key to comedy,   

1236
00:48:23,533 --> 00:48:24,801
 because that makes it funnier. 

1237
00:48:24,902 --> 00:48:26,069
          - Thank you.          

1238
00:48:26,169 --> 00:48:29,239
        - This outfit is        
    bat-Cher crazy beautiful.   

1239
00:48:29,339 --> 00:48:31,375
       - You delivered one      
  of the strongest Mackie looks 

1240
00:48:31,475 --> 00:48:32,876
    I think Cher's ever worn.   

1241
00:48:32,976 --> 00:48:34,411
    It's one of my favorites.   

1242
00:48:34,511 --> 00:48:38,148
    And I thought tonight was   
      a slam dunk for you.      

1243
00:48:38,248 --> 00:48:39,983
          - Up next, Q.         

1244
00:48:40,083 --> 00:48:42,519
       - In the challenge,      
    you had to play a brick.    

1245
00:48:42,619 --> 00:48:44,021
       That's hard to do.       

1246
00:48:44,121 --> 00:48:47,124
 You managed to take this object
   and give it a personality.   

1247
00:48:47,224 --> 00:48:48,258
       You know, there was      
     one line I wrote down.     

1248
00:48:48,358 --> 00:48:49,259
           It says...           

1249
00:48:49,359 --> 00:48:50,460
        - Does it matter?       

1250
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,362
  - I wrote down the same line. 
             - Yeah.            

1251
00:48:52,462 --> 00:48:53,630
  - Stop stealing all my lines, 
          Ross Mathews.         

1252
00:48:53,730 --> 00:48:55,232
        - I copied it off       
 Sarah Michelle Gellar's paper. 

1253
00:48:55,332 --> 00:48:57,000
          - "Does it--"         
      I mean, it was just--     

1254
00:48:57,100 --> 00:48:59,970
  it was comedian level funny.  

1255
00:49:00,070 --> 00:49:02,072
      And you can't really      
           teach that.          

1256
00:49:02,172 --> 00:49:04,541
      - And listen, this is     
   another one of my all time   

1257
00:49:04,641 --> 00:49:05,542
      favorite Cher looks.      

1258
00:49:05,642 --> 00:49:07,177
 I'm so glad you did this look. 

1259
00:49:07,277 --> 00:49:11,281
   - You know, this runway is   
    as much a homage to Cher    

1260
00:49:11,381 --> 00:49:12,816
     as it is to Bob Mackie.    

1261
00:49:12,916 --> 00:49:17,254
     And this is one of his     
     most beautiful outfits.    

1262
00:49:17,354 --> 00:49:18,889
    And you wear it so well.    

1263
00:49:18,989 --> 00:49:20,424
      - Thank you so much.      

1264
00:49:20,524 --> 00:49:23,760
           - Up next,           
     Plasma-rich platelets.     

1265
00:49:23,860 --> 00:49:27,864
     - I loved watching you     
          embody Babs.          

1266
00:49:27,965 --> 00:49:30,801
   And I knew that you had it.  

1267
00:49:30,901 --> 00:49:33,737
    - I had to keep reminding   
 myself to watch the other two, 

1268
00:49:33,837 --> 00:49:36,306
      because my eyes just      
        kept going to you       

1269
00:49:36,406 --> 00:49:37,774
    and I wanted to see more.   

1270
00:49:37,874 --> 00:49:39,343
     - I remember yesterday     
        in the Werk Room,       

1271
00:49:39,443 --> 00:49:41,645
        you said this was       
    a part you didn't really    

1272
00:49:41,745 --> 00:49:43,313
          want to take          
    because you were worried    

1273
00:49:43,413 --> 00:49:45,382
  about being sort of typecast. 
            - Mm-hmm.           

1274
00:49:45,482 --> 00:49:48,518
       - I cannot imagine       
    your sketch without you,    

1275
00:49:48,618 --> 00:49:51,254
    because you doing Barbra    
          in that scene         

1276
00:49:51,355 --> 00:49:52,789
      was just perfection.      

1277
00:49:52,889 --> 00:49:54,992
        - And I love that       
      you chose this dress.     

1278
00:49:55,092 --> 00:49:56,960
    What's your favorite part   
         of this outfit?        

1279
00:49:57,060 --> 00:50:00,364
 - Immediately I liked the idea 
   of a sinister side of Cher.  

1280
00:50:00,464 --> 00:50:01,565
              - Ah.             

1281
00:50:01,665 --> 00:50:03,333
 Part of Cher's brand is morbid 

1282
00:50:03,433 --> 00:50:05,836
      and dark and morose.      

1283
00:50:05,936 --> 00:50:09,272
 In fact, that's why rebel kids 
  loved her in the first place. 

1284
00:50:09,373 --> 00:50:10,307
       Thank you so much.       

1285
00:50:10,407 --> 00:50:11,541
          - Thank you.          

1286
00:50:11,641 --> 00:50:12,642
      - Thank you, queens.      

1287
00:50:12,743 --> 00:50:13,810
   I think we've heard enough.  

1288
00:50:13,910 --> 00:50:16,380
         While you relax        
    in the "Untucked" lounge,   

1289
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,181
        the judges and I        
        will deliberate.        

1290
00:50:19,850 --> 00:50:22,219
     All right, just between    
      us squirrel friends,      

1291
00:50:22,319 --> 00:50:23,720
       what do you think?       

1292
00:50:23,820 --> 00:50:25,288
    Let's start with Mhi'ya.    

1293
00:50:25,389 --> 00:50:28,458
 - In the acting challenge, she 
 at least swung for the fences. 

1294
00:50:28,558 --> 00:50:30,027
          - I'm living!         

1295
00:50:30,127 --> 00:50:31,561
 - She just swung a little hard.

1296
00:50:31,661 --> 00:50:34,865
        It was one note,        
     at this level nonstop.     

1297
00:50:34,965 --> 00:50:36,400
        - In the runway,        
     it fell a little flat.     

1298
00:50:36,500 --> 00:50:38,935
     And for me, the biggest    
      issue is confidence.      

1299
00:50:39,036 --> 00:50:40,737
  I think to be a great queen,  

1300
00:50:40,837 --> 00:50:42,305
       you have to fake it      
        till you make it.       

1301
00:50:42,406 --> 00:50:44,207
        - But I will say,       
    you know who should win?    

1302
00:50:44,307 --> 00:50:45,776
             - Who?             
        - Her impression.       

1303
00:50:45,876 --> 00:50:47,778
           [laughter]           

1304
00:50:47,878 --> 00:50:50,347
      That's the best thing     
       I've seen all week.      

1305
00:50:50,447 --> 00:50:52,482
     [imitating impression]     
     That's the best thing.     

1306
00:50:52,582 --> 00:50:53,583
           [laughter]           

1307
00:50:53,683 --> 00:50:55,052
         - Geneva Karr.         

1308
00:50:55,152 --> 00:50:57,287
      - It could have been      
       the funniest thing       

1309
00:50:57,387 --> 00:50:58,722
    if she could have nailed    

1310
00:50:58,822 --> 00:51:00,991
 a Lindsey Graham impersonation 
            in drag.            

1311
00:51:01,091 --> 00:51:03,260
  - As an actor, you have to be 
     able to ask questions.     

1312
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,429
     And if you get the role    
       and you don't know       

1313
00:51:05,529 --> 00:51:08,165
     who Lindsey Graham is,     
       just ask somebody.       

1314
00:51:08,265 --> 00:51:09,633
             - I do             
 do a Lindsey Graham impression.

1315
00:51:09,733 --> 00:51:11,034
      - Oh, can I hear it?      
             - Yeah.            

1316
00:51:11,134 --> 00:51:12,803
   [imitating Cher impression]  
    Hey, I'm Lindsey Graham.    

1317
00:51:12,903 --> 00:51:14,004
           - [laughs]           

1318
00:51:14,104 --> 00:51:16,740
      - Now, the Cher look      
         was beautiful.         

1319
00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,009
        - But like Cher,        
       if she had cut just      

1320
00:51:19,109 --> 00:51:21,044
      on the inside of the      
    outfit a little bit too,    

1321
00:51:21,144 --> 00:51:22,813
     it would have been more    
   flattering like Cher does.   

1322
00:51:22,913 --> 00:51:24,748
   It's more of like it comes   
    up high and then cuts in.   

1323
00:51:24,848 --> 00:51:26,383
           - Yes, yes.          

1324
00:51:26,483 --> 00:51:27,951
           All right,           
    let's talk about Mirage.    

1325
00:51:28,051 --> 00:51:30,620
  - In terms of the challenge,  
  I think she sped through it.  

1326
00:51:30,720 --> 00:51:32,522
  She moved a little too much.  

1327
00:51:32,622 --> 00:51:35,092
        I think you need        
   to sort of claim the stage.  

1328
00:51:35,192 --> 00:51:36,660
      - I know none of you      
       all agree with me,       

1329
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,428
   but I liked that '60s hair   
           even though          

1330
00:51:38,528 --> 00:51:39,930
    that's a late '70s look.    

1331
00:51:40,030 --> 00:51:44,000
   - But because we've watched  
   Cher's life in every phase,  

1332
00:51:44,101 --> 00:51:48,038
   to mix and match like that,  
   it's so distracting to me.   

1333
00:51:48,138 --> 00:51:49,606
           Plane Jane.          

1334
00:51:49,706 --> 00:51:52,342
 - Just in three weeks, she has 
  shown us that she can perform 

1335
00:51:52,442 --> 00:51:54,177
     at a really high level.    

1336
00:51:54,277 --> 00:51:56,279
      Her Cher is stunning.     

1337
00:51:56,379 --> 00:51:57,347
    Would you change a thing?   
             Anyone?            

1338
00:51:57,447 --> 00:51:58,849
            - No. No.           
           - OK. Good.          

1339
00:51:58,949 --> 00:52:00,650
         What about her         
        in the challenge?       

1340
00:52:00,750 --> 00:52:01,751
    Would you change a thing?   
              - No.             

1341
00:52:01,852 --> 00:52:02,886
              - No.             

1342
00:52:02,986 --> 00:52:04,287
         - But that's an        
       actor's job, right?      

1343
00:52:04,387 --> 00:52:06,690
  It's to take someone's words  
     and make them your own.    

1344
00:52:06,790 --> 00:52:08,558
 And she did it so effortlessly.

1345
00:52:08,658 --> 00:52:10,961
     It was as if you would     
  think she wrote that script.  

1346
00:52:11,061 --> 00:52:12,295
     - Uh-huh. All right. Q.    

1347
00:52:12,395 --> 00:52:13,997
      - This is another one     
           that hasn't          

1348
00:52:14,097 --> 00:52:15,298
  faltered from the beginning.  

1349
00:52:15,398 --> 00:52:17,000
      - She took that scene     
     from the other queens.     

1350
00:52:17,100 --> 00:52:18,301
             - Yeah.            
      - The news was good.      

1351
00:52:18,401 --> 00:52:19,302
          It was cute.          

1352
00:52:19,402 --> 00:52:20,604
     It was chugging along.     

1353
00:52:20,704 --> 00:52:22,339
    And then she just came in   
      and I was like, who?      

1354
00:52:22,439 --> 00:52:23,507
              What?             

1355
00:52:23,607 --> 00:52:24,774
      I just need to focus      
          on the brick.         

1356
00:52:24,875 --> 00:52:27,677
      - And then tonight on     
     the runway, oh, brava.     

1357
00:52:27,777 --> 00:52:30,580
      - The way the stripes     
      widened out in, like,     

1358
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,049
 what we would call our problem 
    section, ladies, and then   

1359
00:52:33,150 --> 00:52:34,384
   thinned out on the bottom.   

1360
00:52:34,484 --> 00:52:36,520
    It was just every aspect    
   of it was real perfection.

    without even knowing her    

1363
00:52:40,056 --> 00:52:41,691
        if you just turn        
     the TV on and saw her,

00:52:41,791 --> 00:52:43,660
       you knew right away      
      she was a Barbra fan.     

1365
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,830
  You have to be able to embody 
      Barbra to do Barbra.      

1366
00:52:46,930 --> 00:52:48,265

        with her choice,

    and pull myself together    

1417

     in her black limousine     

1432
00:55:50,580 --> 00:55:53,717
         I followed her         
      to some darkened room     

1433
00:55:53,817 --> 00:55:55,151
        She took my money

     I can watch is Mirage,     

1442
00:56:25,482 --> 00:56:27,784

     doesn't know the words.    

1450

          like the end,         

1478

  It just feels like you really

            you know?

       I'm mad at myself.

       I'm not mad at Ru.       

1493

 I just feel like I didn't leave
    a good impression on her,   

1494
00:58:59,269 --> 00:59:00,637
    and that's embarrassing.    

1495
00:59:00,737 --> 00:59:04,140
   And I, like, really put all  
    of my eggs in one basket.   

1496
