Canada's Drag Race (2020) s01e07 Episode Script
Miss Loose Jaw
RUPAUL: Previously,
on Canada's Drag Race
JEFFREY: You'll be
getting downright judicial
in your very own late night
law firm commercials.
ILONA: Call us to have
all your problems solved.
SCARLETT: Have you
ever gotten so litty
you've splitted your kitty?
LEMON: Ah!
SCARLETT: Sissy!
ILONA: Sissy!
ILONA: We might be
able to help you
SCARLETT: But we
can't help ourselves!
JIMBO: Yeah, what she said!
BROOKE LYNN: Con-drag-ulations,
Rita Baga.
You are the winner of
this week's challenge.
Which one of your sisters
should go home tonight?
BOA: I would say Lemon.
JIMBO: Lemon.
SCARLETT: Lemon.
ILONA: I would also say Lemon.
RITA: Ilona.
PRIYANKA: I think Ilona Verley.
LEMON: I would also have
to say Ilona Verley.
LEMON: I'm not here
to make friends anymore.
BROOKE LYNN: Ilona Verley
Chanté, you stay.
Bitch On Arrival
Sashay away.

ILONA: [laughs]
Boa!
I feel like she wrote it
and she went "Nice!"
And then rolled her eyes
a little bit or something.
"Nice!"
ILONA: I'm heartbroken.
Boa was my sister.
PRIYANKA: I'm proud of Boa,
you know?
Like, she really came up.
She really grew here.
ILONA: She surprised us all.
PRIYANKA: And I'm so excited
that the world's
gonna get to meet her
and love her.
ILONA: She's amazing, so
I don't want to take this off,
but I'm gonna do it
out of great respect.
Boa, we love you.
PRIYANKA: We love you, Boa!
ILONA: Boa had to go.
There's six of us left.
It's time to top being nice.
The nice era is over.
It's game on now,
and it's time to snap.
PRIYANKA: The judges
kind of took us
for a little bit
of a rigamarole.
ILONA: I know why
I should be here.
I know why I want to be here,
so I don't really care what
Priyanka thinks,
or that old one thinks.
That's fine.
At the end of the day,
Rita's still a senior citizen,
and I'm not, so
JIMBO: So Lemon, how are you
feeling in this moment now?
ILONA: Glad to see me
' lip synch.
She's livid.
She's like, "Karma, bitch!"
LEMON: The two girls who started
a fight with me in Untucked
had to lip synch, hopefully
that curse continues.
LEMON: Jimbo said he voted for
me because he was jealous of me.
Scarlett said she forgot
about everyone else's critiques
and I was last.
Ilona said she just doesn't
really think we're close.
And Boa said
she thinks I'm fake,
so none of those
really equate to
"Lemon's the worst,
she should go home," so
I'm not going anywhere, bitch.
ILONA: I think it really
comes down to the fact
that we are jealous of you.
I think that's where
a lot of that came from.
RITA: I think a lot of the girls
are basing their opinion
on a personal note,
more than what the judges
have to say about Lemon.
It's getting personal now.
PRIYANKA: Rita, are you
surprised you won today?
RITA: I think I won
because they told me
"We've never seen you
this beautiful on the runway.
"You're serving us
something different
"than what we have
seen from you before."
I feel like you want to talk.
SCARLETT: No.
RITA: I think BoBo is frustrated
because she really wanted
to win this maxi challenge.
SCARLETT: I don't know
what else I have left
to give at this point.
I've pushed myself so hard,
and it's just like nothing.
SCARLETT: I'm the only one,
other than Ilona,
who hasn't won anything.
That's so embarrassing.
SCARLETT: I just feel like
I'm not gonna get a win at all.
I just feel like shit.
LEMON: That's a lot of
emotions for safe, girl.
SCARLETT: And I come through,
and they're like,
"Oh, you're always safe,"
and I'm like,
"Well, then tell me
how to not be safe.
I don't know what to do.
I just feel defeated.
PRIYANKA: Scarlett
is not defeated.
She's pissed.
Look at that face.
When you can see the emotion
through all that filler,
that's how you know the girl's
pissed, and she is livid!
ILONA: Girl, don't listen.
SCARLETT: No, stop.
ILONA: I cannot believe
she's acting like this
because she hasn't won anything!
I just had to lip synch
for my life, sissy!
ILONA: Sorry, have your moment.
Love you.
♪
ILONA: I'm trying not to have
the sissy spat of a lifetime.
This is food in the library.
This is food in the library.
SCARLETT: [screams]
ILONA: Every man
for themselves now, sissy.

PRIYANKA: Hello, top 6!
LEMON: Hiee!
PRIYANKA: Top 6 in the house!
Holy shit.
SCARLETT: Oh my god, we've
cut out half the competition!
ILONA: Half the girls are gone.
PRIYANKA: It feels like
there's nobody here,
and we're looking
around at each other,
being like, "One of
these girls is gonna win."
PRIYANKA: Lemon, how are you
feeling going into this week?
LEMON: I'm feeling
like I'm about to
prove a lot of bitches wrong.
PRIYANKA: Wow, so likeable!
LEMON: [laughs]
[siren]
RITA: Ooh-hoo!
[all exclaiming]
ILONA: Oh, we have Ru Mail!
RUPAUL: O Canada!

BROOKE LYNN: Bow down, bitches.
PRIYANKA: Brooke!
SCARLETT: Looking cute!
BROOKE LYNN: My angels,
come closer.
Close enough.
PRIYANKA: Oh.
BROOKE LYNN: Ladies,
you can do drag,
but if you want to know drag,
really get to its core
and its essence,
you do a drag pageant.
For this week's
maxi challenge
PRIYANK: Whoa,
y'all skipping over the mini
and getting right
to the maxi today!
BROOKE LYNN: We have entered
the six of you in the very first
pageant in Drag Race her-story.
ILONA: Ooh!
[applause]
LEMON: Today's maxi
challenge is a pageant!
PRIYANKA: Yay!
BROOKE LYNN: You will be
competing for the crown
and coveted title of
"Miss Loose Jaw."
SCARLETT: Yes!
[laughter]
BROOKE LYNN:
#CanadasDrag Race.
ILONA: That is so iconic; I've
never done a pageant before!
BROOKE LYNN: This pageant
is all about small town girls
with big personalities.
[laughter]
BROOKE LYNN: You'll each
be assigned a unique
character to embody
in every category:
talent, swimsuit,
and the all-important
interview round.
And ladies, this pageant is
not about being best in show,
but about bringing
your character to life,
and making her funny.
JIMBO: I love improv challenges.
It is a stage with
a live audience,
and I am able to do what I love
to do, which is be a clown.
BROOKE LYNN: So you
better B-I-B
Bring it, bitch!
Rita Baga, as the winner of
last week's maxi challenge,
you get to decide which
Miss goes to each sis.
[queens oohing]
BROOKE LYNN: Now choose wisely.
I can tell you from experience,
things get pretty competitive
in the pageant world.
[chuckles]
I mean JK, LOL!
You're all sisters, right?

BROOKE LYNN: Gentlemen,
start your engines,
and may the best woman win.
Byee!
QUEENS: Byee!
ILONA: Ooh!
LEMON: A pageant!
RITA: So, you're all gonna
enjoy my thick accent.
[laughter]
RITA: Okay, the characters.
SCARLETT: We are playing
the most ridiculous characters
who have the most
ridiculous talents.
RITA: I'm gonna pick
the one I want first.
I'll go for the Miss Match'd.
She loves love.
She loves her man
and her dog and her life.
She's so #blessed.
RITA: The roles are
basically typical characters
from the pageant world.
We have the sad one,
the slut one.
RITA: Miss Behavin',
the town bicycle.
Sex positive--
oh, what's that word?
Horn
horndogess?
ILONA: Horndogess, yeah.
JIMBO: I want to be
the town bicycle.
SCARLETT: Me too.
SCARLETT: Jimbo says she
wants to be the town bicycle.
Surprise, surprise.
JIMBO: One of my
favourite sides of my drag
is my curves and my sexuality.
RITA: Miss Behavin',
the sex positive horndog.
Suggestion: I think you
should be Miss Informed.
The Know-It-Almost, she's
the authority on every topic
with an opinion
about everything.
You can do that.
SCARLETT: [sighs]
RITA: Don't give me
that attitude. [laughter]
PRIYANK: Miss Scarlett BoBo
is not happy
with who she gets,
and you can tell.
Zoom in on her face,
she's pissed.
RITA: Miss Fitts,
a bratty pageant princess.
LEMON: I love a bratty
pageant princess.
RITA: That's a fit.
[laughter]
LEMON: I love pageants.
RITA: Miss Erable.
SCARLETT: Miserable.
RITA: Oh, miserable.
ILONA: Oh, "miss-er-able!"
Oh, that's cute.
RITA: I just got it, you know?
A sad sack, she's a
ILONA: Eeyore.
RITA: Eeyore, what's that?
ILONA: It's a character.
RITA: I think you
should do Miss Erable.
ILONA: She's like
miserable and sad,
and I feel like that's
something I haven't done yet
is be toned down,
so I want to be her.
RITA: Miss Demeanor.
Hothead with a chip
on her shoulder.
Did you just look at her funny?
No.
She thinks you did and she's
itching for a fight about it.
PRIYANKA: Love it.
PRIYANKA: I feel like
I can really be her.
She's angry.
I have some anger inside of me
that I need to express.
RITA: Are you happy about it?
ILONA: Yes.
Happy with that.
LEMON: Yeah.
RITA: So I'm gonna change
everything, so I can win.
[laughter]
♪
♪
PRIYANKA: I feel like my
character would have gotten
her hair done like
four months ago,
and now it's all grown out,
but she still wants
to compete in the pageant
because she needs the money.
When you look at this wig, do
you get that, a grown-out root?
Or is that bad?
Should I cancel?
ILONA: I mean,
you've already started.
You can't cancel now!
ILONA: Oh, that's very this.
PRIYANKA: I hate that.
LEMON: Thank you.
ILONA: That literally looks
like it belongs on your head.
LEMON: Thank you.
So I'm going for very like
spoiled pageant princess,
who's like
ILONA: That's so bad.
LEMON: "I've never won a title,
but I'm gonna keep trying."
LEMON: Lemon is also
a spoiled princess,
so I feel like her
and Miss Fitts would get along.
ILONA: This one.
♪
ILONA: Miss Erable is just that
girl that you always see like
out back your school like
smoking on her lunch break,
and you never
really talk to her,
and she never
really talks to you,
and you know that she goes home
and like cries at night.
I'm like, "It's my party
and I'll cry if I want to."
I understand this girl.
I've been this girl.
This is gonna be a cakewalk.
ILONA: And then this is
still like a little me.
PRIYANKA: You're not playing
you, though, don't forget.
ILONA: Priyanka, don't
let me have it like that.
BROOKE LYNN: Did someone
say talent portion?
[laughter]
SCARLETT: Yes!
BROOKE LYNN: I'm here.
SCARLETT: Mama.
BROOKE LYNN: Hello, Lemon.
LEMON: Hi, Angel.
BROOKE LYNN: What
character did you get?
LEMON: So, I got Miss Fitts,
bratty pageant princess.
When things don't go exactly
my way, I'm very like, "No!"
BROOKE LYNN: Oh!
LEMON: So I'm very excited.
BROOKE LYNN: So, how are you
feeling after last week?
You kind of got thrown
under the bus a little bit.
LEMON: It started to unfold
that everyone who said my name
had a personal reason as to why
they thought I should go home,
and that hurt me like even more.
BROOKE LYNN: You could also
look at it like these bitches
want you to go home
'cause they're scared of you.
I went through
a little bit of that myself
when I was on the show.
LEMON: Brooke Lynn has
dealt with the same thing,
and look where she is.
Clearly, I just
need to focus on myself
because everyone
else already is.
BROOKE LYNN: Hi, Priyanka.
How are you feeling?
PRIYANKA: I'm excited to prove
myself in an improv challenge.
BROOKE LYNN: Yes, I'm excited
to see that too because it was
a little bit of a struggle
last time you did it, wasn't it?
PRIYANKA: Yeah, but I'm excited.
I'm playing Miss Demeanor.
BROOKE LYNN: Okay.
PRIYANKA: And she rude.
BROOKE LYNN: She rude.
PRIYANKA: And she angry.
She's been through some shit.
BROOKE LYNN: Just like you.
PRIYANKA: [laughs] Yes,
I've been through some shit.
BROOKE LYNN: You've been
through some shit the last
couple of weeks.
PRIYANKA: I have, yeah.
PRIYANKA: I thought I was gonna
be good on the improv challenge.
I got scared.
I bombed, and ended up
in the bottom two.
BROOKE LYNN: You think this
is gonna take you back up
to the top of this?
PRIYANKA: Yes.
Once I knew what it was
like to be in the bottom,
I was like, "I don't belong
here on the bottom,
"so I'm gonna show
the dolls how to do it."
PRIYANKA: I'm here
to just give full
Priyanka energy to everything.
It's that BP energy, okay?
Big Priyanka energy.
I can't be scared anymore
because there's
no time to be scared.
BROOKE LYNN: Bonjour, Rita.
RITA: Hello, handsome.
BROOKE LYNN: So, tell me
about your character.
RITA: I'm the one who's in love
with love, very positive,
optimistic, and it's
really a character for me
because I'm more
like down to earth.
BROOKE LYNN: In a pageant,
in general,
you have to be very
over the top and out there.
Is this gonna be something
you're gonna struggle with?
RITA: I don't think so because
I'll be playing a character.
I don't have any issues
with having a personality.
Just showing mine
is more difficult.
BROOKE LYNN: Why do
you think that is?
RITA: I like to maintain and to
be strong for my community
and for my family.
I'm also the mother
of the House of Baga,
so I have a lot of children.
I don't want them to see
me as vulnerable or weak.
RITA: I feel like I have this
pressure of representing
the French Canadian culture
because I'm the only one
left from Quebec now.
BROOKE LYNN: I pretty much
went through the exact same
kind of situation
when I was on Drag Race.
I was kind of
representing a country,
and you feel a lot of pressure.
You made it here
because of who you are.
We saw something in you,
and we want to see you.
I cannot wait to
see what you bring.
RITA: It's gonna be fun!
BROOKE LYNN: Au revoir.
BROOKE LYNN: Hi, BoBo.
How are you feeling?
SCARLETT: Obviously,
it sucks, you know.
We're on week seven,
and I haven't won anything.
I feel like these girls
look at me like
I'm not a threat, and I am.
BROOKE LYNN: You are doing
really well in this competition.
You haven't been in the bottom.
You've been safe at top,
which is good.
SCARLETT: Yeah.
BROOKE LYNN: And I think
it's just a matter of wrong
place, wrong time for you.
It's been a group circumstance,
or it's been something
that's kind of held you back
from winning something.
But remember that slow
and steady wins the race.
SCARLETT: Like,
we're on week seven,
and I haven't slipped up once.
I haven't had
to lip synch once.
I haven't won anything,
and I'm letting that not
bother me
because I'm still here.
BROOKE LYNN: Oh hi, Ilona.
ILONA: Hello!
BROOKE LYNN: So, who are
you playing in the pag?
ILONA: Miss Erable.
Miss Erable.
Miss
She's miserable.
Miss Erable.
BROOKE LYNN: How are you
planning on playing her?
ILONA: Like very just
kind of like [sighs]
Like over it.
Just very like
[sighs]
Like, mm like, moody.
BROOKE LYNN: You still need
to be funny and not one-note,
so I'm excited to
see you handle that.
I want to ask you,
how does it feel to be the first
First Nations two-spirited
person on here?
ILONA: It feels amazing.
Like, for me, like growing up,
I had no one to watch on TV.
BROOKE LYNN: Mm-hm.
ILONA: I had no one
to look up to,
and so for me it just feels good
to represent for indigenous kids
and for two-spirit kids.
Like, it's not always
my job to educate as it is
to be present, to represent.
BROOKE LYNN: To be visible.
ILONA: And say I'm here.
You can be here.
Because I never had that,
and I just want to be
that person I wish I had.
ILONA: I had no one
growing up to look up to,
and it's really important
and cool for me to just
be able to be someone,
and be proud of who I am,
and hopefully be able
to inspire other kids
to be proud of themselves,
and you know, inspire them
to just be themselves.
BROOKE LYNN: Jimbo!
Tell me about your
pageant character.
JIMBO: I am Miss Behavin',
the town pump.
BROOKE LYNN: Oh. [laughs]
I love it already.
JIMBO: It's something
close to my heart.
BROOKE LYNN: What is your
process for coming up
with these crazy
characters you do?
JIMBO: I think
the more I cover up Jimbo,
the more someone else
can come through.
JIMBO: I started performance
and drag in a vaudeville troupe
doing sketch comedy,
and then trained as a clown,
and then as a drag clown,
and so I have
a lot of experience
about being in front
of an audience.
I'm really looking forward
to the pageant tonight.
♪
BROOKE LYNN: Contestants
1 through 6,
Canada is about to
get royally tucked.
This is not your
average pageant,
and you are not
playing average girls,
so make strong
character choices.
Be bold.
Be consistent.
And for 's sake,
be a winner.

dark times in my life.

tattooed on me, actually.
"Never good enough."

SCARLETT: Oh my god.
LEMON: Scarlett and Ilona both
love to get the last word,

RITA: Just a reminder,
this is a Canadian edition.
Thank you.
SCARLETT: So, dolls, how cool
is it that Michelle DuBarry
was here yesterday?
LEMON: That was amazing.
SCARLETT: legend!
LEMON: Michelle DuBarry
is not only a Canadian icon,
but she is a drag legend.
She is the oldest working
drag queen in the world,
and she honestly is the coolest
person I've ever met.
LEMON: Michelle DuBarry has
been performing and doing drag
throughout so much
of like queer history.
I feel like she's lived through
so many major gay events,
and historical moments,
and she's been there like
right at the front,
fighting for us.
LEMON: Michelle DuBarry
has seen everything.
She's seen so much
discrimination
and so much hatred,
and she's combatted all of it.
ILONA: She's been doing
drag since like the '50s,
when you had to wear male
clothing under your drag.
SCARLETT: She used to go to like
little nowhere towns,
like in drag.
LEMON: Wow.
SCARLETT: She paved the way
for all of us, really.
ILONA: She's fought
for drag rights,
and without people like her,
this art form of drag
would not be
as acceptable as it is today.
LEMON: We owe so much to her,
and people like her,
and people that she
was standing beside.
RITA: I think our generation,
and the one after,
we have to take the time
to get to know our elders
because they are
the ones who paved the way,
and the real trailblazers.
It's not us.
It's them.
SCARLETT: They're the ones
that gave us the rights
and the freedom to be
our openly queer selves,
so we have to make sure
that we're always giving thanks
and a good nod to these queens,
because Michelle DuBarry,
she paved the way
for all of us.
We would not be here
if it wasn't for her.
ILONA: Does anyone have someone
who is a queer elder to them
that inspired them
with their drag?
RITA: When I first started,
it was Lady Bunny.
It was the first time that I
was able to see a larger queen,
so it was like, "Oh
"It's not only for,
you know, skinny bitches."
RITA: When I first started to
do drag, I was really bigger,
but I did embrace
the fact that I was bigger,
and I was performing in undies,
and the crowd loved it.
I think it's one of the main
reasons I became someone
in Montreal because
I was fearless.
It's all about
having confidence.
PRIYANKA: While we're
on the topic of body,
it did come up on
the runway last week, Lemon.
LEMON: It's always hard for me
to be the one to complain
about this because I know
that a lot of people would die
to have the body that I have.
PRIYANKA: But you have two
worlds combining to make you
feel like shit about your body.
You have the dance world
and the drag world.
LEMON: Yeah, truly, and like
the dance world is literally
just like you stand
staring at yourself in a mirror
that spans a full wall
for 12 hours a day,
and all you do
is correct what's wrong.
LEMON: I spent
my entire childhood
obsessed with
what I looked like,
and it felt sometimes that
everyone was obsessed with it.
It's always been, "You don't
have the body of a male dancer.
"You don't have
a raging six-pack.
"You don't have
big enough biceps.
"You don't have this.
You don't have that."
RITA: There's no right or wrong.
Bodies can be
as different as you are
because we're all different,
at the end of the day.
We should just embrace
our uniqueness.
LEMON: I've worked so hard
to love the skin that I'm in.
I think you can serve
101 different silhouettes,
and 101 different shapes,
and still be
beautiful and powerful.
RITA: No matter what size
you are, or what colour you are,
that's what makes you unique,
so you have to live with it
and be fearless.
LEMON: Wow, that is
the most pageant answer
we could all be giving.
SCARLETT: And world peace.

beautiful ladies.
Now it's time for
the judges' critiques.
STACEY: Jeffrey, darling,
you hosted
the Miss Loose Jaw Pageant.
What do you think
of Ilona Verley,
aka Miss Erable?
JEFFREY: That pretty
much says it all, Ilona.
So you were playing
the sad sack.
I don't know if
you gave us that.
I don't think that a sad sack
is necessarily a petulant child
who is scolding the audience.
BROOKE LYNN: I liked
where you started.
You were very like,
"My parents don't get me,"
and then it just
never got funny.
You just got angry, and it was
kind of uncomfortable to watch.
ALLIE X: I do love
this look, though.
I love the silhouette.
STACEY: I would have
loved to have seen the stones
all the way down,
but like clinging to your body.
I think that would
have been sick.
BROOKE LYNN: We completely
lose your neck with the choker.
You could have taken
the bottom off those earrings
and just worn
those little studs.
I'm also not a fan of the hair.
It's a little Dame Edna meets
George Washington for me.
STACEY: Jeffrey, what did you
think of the pageant princess?
JEFFREY: I love the character.
I love the accent.
You had me laughing.
Your improv, I don't
know where it comes from.
LEMON: Me neither.
BROOKE LYNN: Yeah, you were very
manic and very like robotic,
and scary, and psycho,
and I enjoyed it.
I loved your mime.
My favourite part was
actually you walking off stage
bumping into everything.
I saw you padded in the pageant
as well, and you corseted, so
LEMON: Yes, I will always
make sure my silhouette
is right for you guys.
ALLIE X: I thoroughly
enjoyed your runway, Lemon.
BROOKE LYNN: You came out
and I was like, "Oh, shit."
Well, we just said
"pageant perfection."
We didn't say
what kind of pageant.
You really took a risk,
and I think it paid off.
What a clever way for you
to make yourself stand out,
right down to that tiny
tiara hidden in your hair.
ALLIE X: I love a sockette.
Show me a sockette
and you've won me over already.
STACEY: You were funny.
You were cute.
You had everyone engaged.
Brilliant move.
LEMON: Thank you so much.
STACEY: Rita Baga,
aka Miss Match'd.
JEFFREY: Your character
was the optimistic,
hopeless romantic.
RITA: Yes!
JEFFREY: I didn't really
get that from you.
I got that you were
really hyped to be there.
BROOKE LYNN: I would have
liked to see a little bit
more diversity and not
just that "ha-ha-ha"!
ALLIE X: For me,
you weren't the most memorable.
I actually had to think
back to who you were
because I couldn't remember.
BROOKE LYNN: However, bitch,
I need this dress.
It's stunning.
STACEY: You came out,
and you owned the runway.
You took every chance you got
to make sure you were being seen
from all angles.
BROOKE LYNN: I love
the subtle makeup.
I don't think I've ever
seen you paint this soft.
RITA: Me neither.
ALLIE X: The hair, I love
what you were going for,
but I just felt like it could
have been a little more slick.
BROOKE LYNN: I would have loved
to have seen a black earring,
and not a navy, just to pick up
on the black in the dress.
STACEY: What did you
think of Miss Demeanor?
BROOKE LYNN: A little one-note.
It was the same
kind of thing as Ilona.
You just kind of did
one thing the entire time,
and just stomped around,
and were just like
staring at people.
Like you can be mean and angry
because we get that's kind of
part of the character,
but you also need to be funny
because it's
supposed to be funny.
JEFFREY: You played small.
It was reminiscent
of the Snatch Game,
just kind of was flat,
and I was disappointed
because I know that you
can do better than that.
STACEY: I know you're
a new mother and all,
but now you've gotta
work ten times harder.
BROOKE LYNN: This gown,
however, it's beautiful.
If I went to a drag pageant,
this is the dress
I would expect to
see from somebody.
And that colour on you,
that blue is like
ALLIE X: I just thought that
you could have held yourself
with a little bit
more confidence.
BROOKE LYNN: Even the way
you're standing right now,
you're kind of like
STACEY: Mm-hm.
PRIYANKA: Oh, okay.
BROOKE LYNN: Yeah, there we go.
That's a little better.
Remember, this competition
is a marathon.
It's not a sprint,
and you're so close to the end,
and none of you
can run out of steam.
JEFFREY: Miss Behavin'.
JIMBO: I sure was.
ALLIE X: You were my favourite
in the pageant, so unhinged,
and over the top,
but not to the point
where it irritated me at all.
I loved your tits.
They were amazing.
JEFFREY: I think I laughed
the hardest at what you brought
to the stage.
BROOKE LYNN: Now,
this runway look,
I like that you
bejizzled your face.
Everything else
I really don't care for.
It's my least favourite thing
you've worn on the runway.
It looks like we had
another design challenge
and you had to make this.
You've put all
this stuff up here,
and you've just completely
lost your silhouette.
I don't see a waist.
This just is not pageant for me.
STACEY: Like, to me,
this is ill-shaped,
and it just doesn't
do nothing for you.
I don't like the dress at all,
and I don't like your hair.
JEFFREY: It's not my favourite.
It's not glamourous
by any means.
It's campy, which is fun,
and it's very on brand
with Jimbo.
JIMBO: But not
glamourous in any way.
[laughter]
JIMBO: Okay.
JEFFREY: Miss Informed.
SCARLETT: Hiee.
STACEY: I thought you were
wicked in the pageant.
SCARLETT: Thank you.
STACEY: You were funny.
You played the character well.
JEFFREY: You really had me
laughing the whole time.
BROOKE LYNN: You
did have good moments.
The bongos
"Aaah!"
It was short
but it was sweet.
ALLIE X: This is my favourite
look of all the looks
on the runway.
This is the one that
I would like to wear.
I love the broad shoulder.
I love how you stripped it off
and then we saw your tattoos.
It was sexy.
JEFFREY: You look magnificent,
truly the best
that I have ever seen
Miss Scarlett BoBo look
on this runway, honey.
SCARLETT: Thank you.
BROOKE LYNN: You just look
very like old world,
1940s, 1950s glam.
I'm like,
"Yeah, it's still BoBo."
There's an edge to it still,
like if a rock star was forced
to go to the Oscars.
SCARLETT: [laughs]
STACEY: Thank you, ladies.
You may all head back
to the workroom to untuck
while we deliberate.

you feel stupid?
PRIYANKA: I'm in
the bottom again!
SCARLETT: Priyianka,
where's that spark?
PRIYANKA: You know
those girls at the club,
like delusional drag queens
that think they're the ticket?
Like, that's how
I felt tonight.
[laughs]
ILONA: Oh, no!
PRIYANKA: Did all those
years in TV not pay off?
Am I not as talented
as I think I am?
PRIYANKA: I'm disappointed
in myself, and I'm scared.
PRIYANKA: I want to represent
queer POC's out there.
I want to be here for my people.
I don't want to disappoint them.
PRIYANKA: There's
a lot riding on this.
I quit my kids TV job
to do this show.
Am I gonna be able
to make my rent?
Can I pay my phone bill?
Like holy shit, like,
I could actually go home today,
and if I go home,
did I make a mistake?
PRIYANKA: I don't see
anybody else in the bottom.
Based on judges' critiques,
it's gonna be Ilona and I.
JIMBO: Well,
I could be for sure.
They all hated this dress.
Jeffrey said I don't
look glamourous at all.
It's one thing to say I think
you should be more glamourous
or my version of glamour,
but to say that I'm not
glamourous at all,
that's like say always never.
I think he maybe needs
to look up the word "glamour."
You question my taste level.
I question your knowledge
of the English language.
PRIYANKA: Oh, shit.
[laughs]
LEMON: Jimbo
is furious at the judges
for their critiques, and that's
not how this game is played.
They're not critiquing you
to hurt your feelings, baby.
They're just saying like your
runway didn't match the theme.
RITA: Are you open if
we want to say something?
JIMBO: Oh no, I want to hear
from an outside point of view.
RITA: I think it's the first
time that you look older
than you are.
I didn't know if
it was on purpose.
JIMBO: No, I purposely
have taped my face back
to try and look
a bit younger, so
I guess I look like
an old, dumb bitch.
RITA: You didn't ask my opinion.
I'm just giving it.
JIMBO: Okay, bitch.
Well, you're wearing
some crusty-ass
Golden Girl bullshit
on your head,
and you're coming for me.
JIMBO: Your waistline
looks like barf.
Your hair is fried.
That wig should go
directly in the garbage.
ILONA: Aah!
All of the girls are fighting!
RITA: Baby,
I'm just trying to help.
JIMBO: I mean your hair
looks like a grandma just
dunked her head in the toilet.
RITA: This is how you react
when I'm trying to help you?
So maybe I'll keep my comment
for myself next time.
JIMBO: I mean, your
hair is disgusting.
ILONA: I mean, I call
her old all the time,
but I like this hair.
I'd wear this hair.
JIMBO: Look at it, like
the flyaways everywhere.
It's uneven.
PRIYANKA: I'm dead!
I'm dead!
I'm here wondering if I have
a job after this competition,
and these bitches
are like fighting like
two senior citizens that have
been in the home for too long.
JIMBO: I'm not trying to be a
bitch, but that hair is thirsty.
PRIYANKA: Like, pardon me.
Excuse me, ladies.
I'm going through
something here!
JIMBO: Oh, I am feeling
like the claws are out.
I'm like, "Okay,
cut your wig up!"
[ rawrsound effect]
STACEY: Well, just between
us first runners up
BROOKE LYNN: Wow!
STACEY: Let's start
with Ilona Verley.
JEFFREY: Ilona is just not
bringing it on the same level
that the other queens are,
and I don't know
if she has any more to give.
ALLIE X: I liked Ilona.
She really had an energy
that I gravitated towards,
but she didn't give
the most likeable performance
in the pageant.
STACEY: Next up, Lemon.
JEFFREY: I am so impressed
with Lemon this week.
Her performance
in the Miss Loose Jaw Pageant,
she was hilarious.
ALLIE X: Lemon, for me,
was the star of the runway.
I was so taken
by her immediately.
BROOKE LYNN: Her
runway was genius.
To take the theme
and completely conceptualize it
in a way that nobody
else thought of,
talk about a smart cookie,
a smart lemon cookie.
[laughter]
STACEY: So, what did you
all think about Rita Baga?
ALLIE X: Her performance
in the pageant wasn't
super memorable for me.
JEFFREY: Rita was just so
delicious on the runway tonight.
ALLIE X: I wish that her hair
had been a little better.
STACEY: She came out on that
runway and I was just like,
"Wow," just blown away.
She was just spectacular, how
she walked out, owned the stage.
BROOKE LYNN: You can
just tell when somebody likes
what they're wearing
because she was feeling herself.
ALLIE X: She was like
a glamazon Zamboni gracefully
smoothing out the whole stage.
BROOKE LYNN: Allie X's new
single, "Glamazon Zamboni."
[laughter]
STACEY: Priyanka.
I'm really disappointed
because Priyanka,
she could win this competition,
but lately the confidence level
has gone down.
BROOKE LYNN: Her in the pageant
was just very one-note.
ALLIE X: But what about
when she had the baby?
[all laugh]
ALLIE X: That was so good.
BROOKE LYNN: That was a towel.
That wasn't a real baby.
[laughter]
BROOKE LYNN: Shh.
ALLIE X: I actually really
liked her in the pageant.
BROOKE LYNN: Don't get me wrong.
She had some funny
moments where I laughed,
but we're down to the top six
here, and we've gotta nitpick.
STACEY: Miss Jimbo.
JEFFREY: That queen
can do comedy
like no one else on that stage.
Unfortunately, when it comes
to her fashion journey,
this week she just
pew turd city.
BROOKE LYNN: That was the worst
she's looked all season.
ALLIE X: Yes,
the outfit was horrendous,
but it was horrendously awesome.
BROOKE LYNN: Blech
Hated it.
Hated it!
STACEY: Scarlett BoBo.
ALLIE X: Scarlett BoBo
was very strong tonight.
JEFFREY: Just so glamourous,
and yet still so Scarlett BoBo.
She still had that edge.
In the Miss Loose Jaw pageant,
the bitch was funny.
BROOKE LYNN: I think
BoBo is, by far,
the most consistent person
we have in this competition.
She hasn't won anything.
She hasn't been
the worst at anything.
But she's just been
consistently good.
ALLIE X: Maybe it's
her moment to rise.
STACEY: Alright, have
we made some decisions?
BROOKE LYNN: I think so, yup.
JEFFREY: Yup.
STACEY: Bring back
our congenial misses.
ALLIE X: Welcome back, queens.
STACEY: Based
on your performance
in the maxi challenge,
and your runway presentation,
we have made some decisions.
Lemon, your Miss Fitt
packed pizzazz,
and your runway, Lemon,
squeezed the juice,
the go-go juice.

a spoiled princess,
so I feel like her
and Miss Fitts would get along.
ILONA: This one.

ILONA: Miss Erable is just that
girl that you always see like
out back your school like
smoking on her lunch break,
and you never
really talk to her,
and she never
really talks to you,
and you know that she goes home
and like cries at night.
I'm like, "It's my party
and I'll cry if I want to."
I understand this girl.
I've been this girl.
This is gonna be a cakewalk.
ILONA: And then this is
still like a little me.
PRIYANKA: You're not playing
you, though, don't forget.
ILONA: Priyanka, don't
let me have it like that.
BROOKE LYNN: Did someone
say talent portion?
[laughter]
SCARLETT: Yes!
BROOKE LYNN: I'm here.
SCARLETT: Mama.
BROOKE LYNN: Hello, Lemon.
LEMON: Hi, Angel.
BROOKE LYNN: What
character did you get?
LEMON: So, I got Miss Fitts,
bratty pageant princess.
When things don't go exactly
my way, I'm very like, "No!"
BROOKE LYNN: Oh!
LEMON: So I'm very excited.
BROOKE LYNN: So, how are you
feeling after last week?
You kind of got thrown
under the bus a little bit.
LEMON: It started to unfold
that everyone who said my name
had a personal reason as to why
they thought I should go home,
and that hurt me like even more.
BROOKE LYNN: You could also
look at it like these bitches
want you to go home
'cause they're scared of you.
I went through
a little bit of that myself
when I was on the show.
LEMON: Brooke Lynn has
dealt with the same thing,
and look where she is.
Clearly, I just
need to focus on myself
because everyone
else already is.
BROOKE LYNN: Hi, Priyanka.
How are you feeling?
PRIYANKA: I'm excited to prove
myself in an improv challenge.
BROOKE LYNN: Yes, I'm excited
to see that too because it was
a little bit of a struggle
last time you did it, wasn't it?
PRIYANKA: Yeah, but I'm excited.
I'm playing Miss Demeanor.
BROOKE LYNN: Okay.
PRIYANKA: And she rude.
BROOKE LYNN: She rude.
PRIYANKA: And she angry.
She's been through some shit.
BROOKE LYNN: Just like you.
PRIYANKA: [laughs] Yes,
I've been through some shit.
BROOKE LYNN: You've been
through some shit the last
couple of weeks.
PRIYANKA: I have, yeah.
PRIYANKA: I thought I was gonna
be good on the improv challenge.
I got scared.
I bombed, and ended up
in the bottom two.
BROOKE LYNN: You think this
is gonna take you back up
to the top of this?
PRIYANKA: Yes.
Once I knew what it was
like to be in the bottom,
I was like, "I don't belong
here on the bottom,
"so I'm gonna show
the dolls how to do it."
PRIYANKA: I'm here
to just give full
Priyanka energy to everything.
It's that BP energy, okay?
Big Priyanka energy.
I can't be scared anymore
because there's
no time to be scared.
BROOKE LYNN: Bonjour, Rita.
RITA: Hello, handsome.
BROOKE LYNN: So, tell me
about your character.
RITA: I'm the one who's in love
with love, very positive,
optimistic, and it's
really a character for me
because I'm more
like down to earth.
BROOKE LYNN: In a pageant,
in general,
you have to be very
over the top and out there.
Is this gonna be something
you're gonna struggle with?
RITA: I don't think so because
I'll be playing a character.
I don't have any issues
with having a personality.
Just showing mine
is more difficult.
BROOKE LYNN: Why do
you think that is?
RITA: I like to maintain and to
be strong for my community
and for my family.
I'm also the mother
of the House of Baga,
so I have a lot of children.
I don't want them to see
me as vulnerable or weak.
RITA: I feel like I have this
pressure of representing
the French Canadian culture
because I'm the only one
left from Quebec now.
BROOKE LYNN: I pretty much
went through the exact same
kind of situation
when I was on Drag Race.
I was kind of
representing a country,
and you feel a lot of pressure.
You made it here
because of who you are.
We saw something in you,
and we want to see you.
I cannot wait to
see what you bring.
RITA: It's gonna be fun!
BROOKE LYNN: Au revoir.
BROOKE LYNN: Hi, BoBo.
How are you feeling?
SCARLETT: Obviously,
it sucks, you know.
We're on week seven,
and I haven't won anything.
I feel like these girls
look at me like
I'm not a threat, and I am.
BROOKE LYNN: You are doing
really well in this competition.
You haven't been in the bottom.
You've been safe at top,
which is good.
SCARLETT: Yeah.
BROOKE LYNN: And I think
it's just a matter of wrong
place, wrong time for you.
It's been a group circumstance,
or it's been something
that's kind of held you back
from winning something.
But remember that slow
and steady wins the race.
SCARLETT: Like,
we're on week seven,
and I haven't slipped up once.
I haven't had
to lip synch once.
I haven't won anything,
and I'm letting that not
bother me
because I'm still here.
BROOKE LYNN: Oh hi, Ilona.
ILONA: Hello!
BROOKE LYNN: So, who are
you playing in the pag?
ILONA: Miss Erable.
Miss Erable.
Miss
She's miserable.
Miss Erable.
BROOKE LYNN: How are you
planning on playing her?
ILONA: Like very just
kind of like [sighs]
Like over it.
Just very like
[sighs]
Like, mm like, moody.
BROOKE LYNN: You still need
to be funny and not one-note,
so I'm excited to
see you handle that.
I want to ask you,
how does it feel to be the first
First Nations two-spirited
person on here?
ILONA: It feels amazing.
Like, for me, like growing up,
I had no one to watch on TV.
BROOKE LYNN: Mm-hm.
ILONA: I had no one
to look up to,
and so for me it just feels good
to represent for indigenous kids
and for two-spirit kids.
Like, it's not always
my job to educate as it is
to be present, to represent.
BROOKE LYNN: To be visible.
ILONA: And say I'm here.
You can be here.
Because I never had that,
and I just want to be
that person I wish I had.
ILONA: I had no one
growing up to look up to,
and it's really important
and cool for me to just
be able to be someone,
and be proud of who I am,
and hopefully be able
to inspire other kids
to be proud of themselves,
and you know, inspire them
to just be themselves.
BROOKE LYNN: Jimbo!
Tell me about your
pageant character.
JIMBO: I am Miss Behavin',
the town pump.
BROOKE LYNN: Oh. [laughs]
I love it already.
JIMBO: It's something
close to my heart.
BROOKE LYNN: What is your
process for coming up
with these crazy
characters you do?
JIMBO: I think
the more I cover up Jimbo,
the more someone else
can come through.
JIMBO: I started performance
and drag in a vaudeville troupe
doing sketch comedy,
and then trained as a clown,
and then as a drag clown,
and so I have
a lot of experience
about being in front
of an audience.
I'm really looking forward
to the pageant tonight.

as acceptable as it is today.
LEMON: We owe so much to her,
and people like her,
and people that she
was standing beside.
RITA: I think our generation,
and the one after,
we have to take the time
to get to know our elders
because they are
the ones who paved the way,
and the real trailblazers.
It's not us.
It's them.
SCARLETT: They're the ones
that gave us the rights
and the freedom to be
our openly queer selves,
so we have to make sure
that we're always giving thanks
and a good nod to these queens,
because Michelle DuBarry,
she paved the way
for all of us.
We would not be here
if it wasn't for her.
ILONA: Does anyone have someone
who is a queer elder to them
that inspired them
with their drag?
RITA: When I first started,
it was Lady Bunny.
It was the first time that I
was able to see a larger queen,
so it was like, "Oh
"It's not only for,
you know, skinny bitches."
RITA: When I first started to
do drag, I was really bigger,
but I did embrace
the fact that I was bigger,
and I was performing in undies,
and the crowd loved it.
I think it's one of the main
reasons I became someone
in Montreal because
I was fearless.
It's all about
having confidence.
PRIYANKA: While we're
on the topic of body,
it did come up on
the runway last week, Lemon.
LEMON: It's always hard for me
to be the one to complain
about this because I know
that a lot of people would die
to have the body that I have.
PRIYANKA: But you have two
worlds combining to make you
feel like shit about your body.
You have the dance world
and the drag world.
LEMON: Yeah, truly, and like
the dance world is literally
just like you stand
staring at yourself in a mirror
that spans a full wall
for 12 hours a day,
and all you do
is correct what's wrong.
LEMON: I spent
my entire childhood
obsessed with
what I looked like,
and it felt sometimes that
everyone was obsessed with it.
It's always been, "You don't
have the body of a male dancer.
"You don't have
a raging six-pack.
"You don't have
big enough biceps.
"You don't have this.
You don't have that."
RITA: There's no right or wrong.
Bodies can be
as different as you are
because we're all different,
at the end of the day.
We should just embrace
our uniqueness.
LEMON: I've worked so hard
to love the skin that I'm in.
I think you can serve
101 different silhouettes,
and 101 different shapes,
and still be
beautiful and powerful.
RITA: No matter what size
you are, or what colour you are,
that's what makes you unique,
so you have to live with it
and be fearless.
LEMON: Wow, that is
the most pageant answer
we could all be giving.
SCARLETT: And world peace.

I'm your extra special
guest host, Allie X,
and I'm gagged to be here.
Brooke Lynn Hytes,
long live the queen.
BROOKE LYNN: Ah, yes,
long and hard.
Wait, what are we

STACEY: And I refuse

ALLIE X: Don't I know it.
[laughter]
ALLIE X: This week,
the queens were challenged
to bring unique characters
to life as they competed
in a small-town beauty pageant.
Gentlemen, start your engines,
and may the best woman win.
♪
ALLIE X: Category is
"pageant perfection."
First up, Ilona Verley.
ILONA: I am serving the judges
"diamonds are
a girl's best friend."
I'm wearing a floor-length
mermaid ballgown,
very vintage inspired.
I've got an entire top
made out of jewelry,
putting Beyoncé to shame.
ALLIE X: There's my chandelier.
ILONA: You want this?
Well, you can't afford it,
and neither can I
because I'm still
making payments.
ALLIE X: Next is Lemon.
LEMON: I am serving you perfect
pageant 5-year old realness.
JEFFREY: Oh, it's
JonBenet Shablamsy.
LEMON: Lemon loves pageants,
arts and crafts,
and tap dancing.
When she grows up, she wants
to win Canada's Drag Race.
BROOKE LYNN: Favourite food?
Sketty.
ALLIE X: Pull that
ball change, bitch.
LEMON: I'm flip, flop,
flapping all around this stage.
I'm going to win
ultimate grand supreme.
I just know it!
And my mom said if I did,
she'd take me for a poutine.
ALLIE X: She's a cutie patootie.
Rita Baga.
STACEY: Ooh.
BROOKE LYNN: Oh!
RITA: The fantasy is glamour
and Glenn Close
wearing Thierry Mugler.
JEFFREY: I'm ready for
my closeup, Mr. DeMille,
and my wide shot.
RITA: She's beautiful.
She's glamourous.
She's gonna be
in every newspaper.
I want the judges to see
that I'm not always campy.
I can be femme as well,
and fabulous, as always.
ALLIE X: Next, Priyanka.
BROOKE LYNN: [gasps]
PRIYANKA: My pageant perfection
is a Bollywood dream.
I am giving you this gorgeous
Princess Jasmine blue gown,
with this chiffon
just to throw it around!
JEFFREY: She's living
in a whole new world.
BROOKE LYNN: She said "
you and your magic carpet."
PRIYANKA: This look is
inspired by my grandmother,
who passed away a few years ago.
Through drag, I'm able to show
the world how beautiful she is,
and how beautiful I am.
I feel so pretty.
ALLIE X: Jimbo.
BROOKE LYNN: [gasps]
JIMBO: I'm serving
old Hollywood glamour,
mixed with a bit of clown.
Choo-choo-choo,
I've got a long train
covered in ostrich feathers.
I'm taking a real risk
with my pageant perfection.
I feel like Marie Antoinette
and Barbie had a baby.
Out of my eyes are
crying tears of diamonds.
ALLIE X: It's so sad
being so rich.
JIMBO: My ears are
also pouring diamonds,
and I've got diamonds
dripping out of places
that the camera can't see.
BROOKE LYNN: Well, diamonds
were a girl's best friend.
ALLIE X: And Scarlett BoBo.
BROOKE LYNN: Ooh.
SCARLETT: I'm serving
pageant perfection
in the BoBo perfection way.
I feel like a fierce Russian spy
that's coming for blood.
I feel like I'm channelling
my inner Dita Von Teese.
I feel so glamourous.
I've never felt more
beautiful in my entire life.
STACEY: Cruella DeDrag Queen.
BROOKE LYNN: I adore
puppies and skunks.
SCARLETT: I'm giving them
a soft version of BoBo,
but I'm also still
keeping that bad-assery.
I feel like a superstar.
ALLIE X: Welcome back,
beautiful ladies.
Now it's time for
the judges' critiques.
STACEY: Jeffrey, darling,
you hosted
the Miss Loose Jaw Pageant.
What do you think
of Ilona Verley,
aka Miss Erable?
JEFFREY: That pretty
much says it all, Ilona.
So you were playing
the sad sack.
I don't know if
you gave us that.
I don't think that a sad sack
is necessarily a petulant child
who is scolding the audience.
BROOKE LYNN: I liked
where you started.
You were very like,
"My parents don't get me,"
and then it just
never got funny.
You just got angry, and it was
kind of uncomfortable to watch.
ALLIE X: I do love
this look, though.
I love the silhouette.
STACEY: I would have
loved to have seen the stones
all the way down,
but like clinging to your body.
I think that would
have been sick.
BROOKE LYNN: We completely
lose your neck with the choker.
You could have taken
the bottom off those earrings
and just worn
those little studs.
I'm also not a fan of the hair.
It's a little Dame Edna meets
George Washington for me.
STACEY: Jeffrey, what did you
think of the pageant princess?
JEFFREY: I love the character.
I love the accent.
You had me laughing.
Your improv, I don't
know where it comes from.
LEMON: Me neither.
BROOKE LYNN: Yeah, you were very
manic and very like robotic,
and scary, and psycho,
and I enjoyed it.
I loved your mime.
My favourite part was
actually you walking off stage
bumping into everything.
I saw you padded in the pageant
as well, and you corseted, so
LEMON: Yes, I will always
make sure my silhouette
is right for you guys.
ALLIE X: I thoroughly
enjoyed your runway, Lemon.
BROOKE LYNN: You came out
and I was like, "Oh, shit."
Well, we just said
"pageant perfection."
We didn't say
what kind of pageant.
You really took a risk,
and I think it paid off.
What a clever way for you
to make yourself stand out,
right down to that tiny
tiara hidden in your hair.
ALLIE X: I love a sockette.
Show me a sockette
and you've won me over already.
STACEY: You were funny.
You were cute.
You had everyone engaged.
Brilliant move.
LEMON: Thank you so much.
STACEY: Rita Baga,
aka Miss Match'd.
JEFFREY: Your character
was the optimistic,
hopeless romantic.
RITA: Yes!
JEFFREY: I didn't really
get that from you.
I got that you were
really hyped to be there.
BROOKE LYNN: I would have
liked to see a little bit
more diversity and not
just that "ha-ha-ha"!
ALLIE X: For me,
you weren't the most memorable.
I actually had to think
back to who you were
because I couldn't remember.
BROOKE LYNN: However, bitch,
I need this dress.
It's stunning.
STACEY: You came out,
and you owned the runway.
You took every chance you got
to make sure you were being seen
from all angles.
BROOKE LYNN: I love
the subtle makeup.
I don't think I've ever
seen you paint this soft.
RITA: Me neither.
ALLIE X: The hair, I love
what you were going for,
but I just felt like it could
have been a little more slick.
BROOKE LYNN: I would have loved
to have seen a black earring,
and not a navy, just to pick up
on the black in the dress.
STACEY: What did you
think of Miss Demeanor?
BROOKE LYNN: A little one-note.
It was the same
kind of thing as Ilona.
You just kind of did
one thing the entire time,
and just stomped around,
and were just like
staring at people.
Like you can be mean and angry
because we get that's kind of
part of the character,
but you also need to be funny
because it's
supposed to be funny.
JEFFREY: You played small.
It was reminiscent
of the Snatch Game,
just kind of was flat,
and I was disappointed
because I know that you
can do better than that.
STACEY: I know you're
a new mother and all,
but now you've gotta
work ten times harder.
BROOKE LYNN: This gown,
however, it's beautiful.
If I went to a drag pageant,
this is the dress
I would expect to
see from somebody.
And that colour on you,
that blue is like
ALLIE X: I just thought that
you could have held yourself
with a little bit
more confidence.
BROOKE LYNN: Even the way
you're standing right now,
you're kind of like
STACEY: Mm-hm.
PRIYANKA: Oh, okay.
BROOKE LYNN: Yeah, there we go.
That's a little better.
Remember, this competition
is a marathon.
It's not a sprint,
and you're so close to the end,
and none of you
can run out of steam.
JEFFREY: Miss Behavin'.
JIMBO: I sure was.
ALLIE X: You were my favourite
in the pageant, so unhinged,
and over the top,
but not to the point
where it irritated me at all.
I loved your tits.
They were amazing.
JEFFREY: I think I laughed
the hardest at what you brought
to the stage.
BROOKE LYNN: Now,
this runway look,
I like that you
bejizzled your face.
Everything else
I really don't care for.
It's my least favourite thing
you've worn on the runway.
It looks like we had
another design challenge
and you had to make this.
You've put all
this stuff up here,
and you've just completely
lost your silhouette.
I don't see a waist.
This just is not pageant for me.
STACEY: Like, to me,
this is ill-shaped,
and it just doesn't
do nothing for you.
I don't like the dress at all,
and I don't like your hair.
JEFFREY: It's not my favourite.
It's not glamourous
by any means.
It's campy, which is fun,
and it's very on brand
with Jimbo.
JIMBO: But not
glamourous in any way.
[laughter]
JIMBO: Okay.
JEFFREY: Miss Informed.
SCARLETT: Hiee.
STACEY: I thought you were
wicked in the pageant.
SCARLETT: Thank you.
STACEY: You were funny.
You played the character well.
JEFFREY: You really had me
laughing the whole time.
BROOKE LYNN: You
did have good moments.
The bongos
"Aaah!"
It was short
but it was sweet.
ALLIE X: This is my favourite
look of all the looks
on the runway.
This is the one that
I would like to wear.
I love the broad shoulder.
I love how you stripped it off
and then we saw your tattoos.
It was sexy.
JEFFREY: You look magnificent,
truly the best
that I have ever seen
Miss Scarlett BoBo look
on this runway, honey.
SCARLETT: Thank you.
BROOKE LYNN: You just look
very like old world,
1940s, 1950s glam.
I'm like,
"Yeah, it's still BoBo."
There's an edge to it still,
like if a rock star was forced
to go to the Oscars.
SCARLETT: [laughs]
STACEY: Thank you, ladies.
You may all head back
to the workroom to untuck
while we deliberate.
♪
LEMON: At this point
in the competition,
one rhinestone out of place
could put you in the bottom,
so it's tough to know
who's gonna be lip synching.
SCARLETT: This
competition it's hard.
It's really,
really, really hard,
and now I finally feel seen
and I feel important.
PRIYANKA: I feel so stupid.
SCARLETT: Why do
you feel stupid?
PRIYANKA: I'm in
the bottom again!
SCARLETT: Priyianka,
where's that spark?
PRIYANKA: You know
those girls at the club,
like delusional drag queens
that think they're the ticket?
Like, that's how
I felt tonight.
[laughs]
ILONA: Oh, no!
PRIYANKA: Did all those
years in TV not pay off?
Am I not as talented
as I think I am?
PRIYANKA: I'm disappointed
in myself, and I'm scared.
PRIYANKA: I want to represent
queer POC's out there.
I want to be here for my people.
I don't want to disappoint them.
PRIYANKA: There's
a lot riding on this.
I quit my kids TV job
to do this show.
Am I gonna be able
to make my rent?
Can I pay my phone bill?
Like holy shit, like,
I could actually go home today,
and if I go home,
did I make a mistake?
PRIYANKA: I don't see
anybody else in the bottom.
Based on judges' critiques,
it's gonna be Ilona and I.
JIMBO: Well,
I could be for sure.
They all hated this dress.
Jeffrey said I don't
look glamourous at all.
It's one thing to say I think
you should be more glamourous
or my version of glamour,
but to say that I'm not
glamourous at all,
that's like say always never.
I think he maybe needs
to look up the word "glamour."
You question my taste level.
I question your knowledge
of the English language.
PRIYANKA: Oh, shit.
[laughs]
LEMON: Jimbo
is furious at the judges
for their critiques, and that's
not how this game is played.
They're not critiquing you
to hurt your feelings, baby.
They're just saying like your
runway didn't match the theme.
RITA: Are you open if
we want to say something?
JIMBO: Oh no, I want to hear
from an outside point of view.
RITA: I think it's the first
time that you look older
than you are.
I didn't know if
it was on purpose.
JIMBO: No, I purposely
have taped my face back
to try and look
a bit younger, so
I guess I look like
an old, dumb bitch.
RITA: You didn't ask my opinion.
I'm just giving it.
JIMBO: Okay, bitch.
Well, you're wearing
some crusty-ass
Golden Girl bullshit
on your head,
and you're coming for me.
JIMBO: Your waistline
looks like barf.
Your hair is fried.
That wig should go
directly in the garbage.
ILONA: Aah!
All of the girls are fighting!
RITA: Baby,
I'm just trying to help.
JIMBO: I mean your hair
looks like a grandma just
dunked her head in the toilet.
RITA: This is how you react
when I'm trying to help you?
So maybe I'll keep my comment
for myself next time.
JIMBO: I mean, your
hair is disgusting.
ILONA: I mean, I call
her old all the time,
but I like this hair.
I'd wear this hair.
JIMBO: Look at it, like
the flyaways everywhere.
It's uneven.
PRIYANKA: I'm dead!
I'm dead!
I'm here wondering if I have
a job after this competition,
and these bitches
are like fighting like
two senior citizens that have
been in the home for too long.
JIMBO: I'm not trying to be a
bitch, but that hair is thirsty.
PRIYANKA: Like, pardon me.
Excuse me, ladies.
I'm going through
something here!
JIMBO: Oh, I am feeling
like the claws are out.
I'm like, "Okay,
cut your wig up!"
[ rawrsound effect]
STACEY: Well, just between
us first runners up
BROOKE LYNN: Wow!
STACEY: Let's start
with Ilona Verley.
JEFFREY: Ilona is just not
bringing it on the same level
that the other queens are,
and I don't know
if she has any more to give.
ALLIE X: I liked Ilona.
She really had an energy
that I gravitated towards,
but she didn't give
the most likeable performance
in the pageant.
STACEY: Next up, Lemon.
JEFFREY: I am so impressed
with Lemon this week.
Her performance
in the Miss Loose Jaw Pageant,
she was hilarious.
ALLIE X: Lemon, for me,
was the star of the runway.
I was so taken
by her immediately.
BROOKE LYNN: Her
runway was genius.
To take the theme
and completely conceptualize it
in a way that nobody
else thought of,
talk about a smart cookie,
a smart lemon cookie.
[laughter]
STACEY: So, what did you
all think about Rita Baga?
ALLIE X: Her performance
in the pageant wasn't
super memorable for me.
JEFFREY: Rita was just so
delicious on the runway tonight.
ALLIE X: I wish that her hair
had been a little better.
STACEY: She came out on that
runway and I was just like,
"Wow," just blown away.
She was just spectacular, how
she walked out, owned the stage.
BROOKE LYNN: You can
just tell when somebody likes
what they're wearing
because she was feeling herself.
ALLIE X: She was like
a glamazon Zamboni gracefully
smoothing out the whole stage.
BROOKE LYNN: Allie X's new
single, "Glamazon Zamboni."
[laughter]
STACEY: Priyanka.
I'm really disappointed
because Priyanka,
she could win this competition,
but lately the confidence level
has gone down.
BROOKE LYNN: Her in the pageant
was just very one-note.
ALLIE X: But what about
when she had the baby?
[all laugh]
ALLIE X: That was so good.
BROOKE LYNN: That was a towel.
That wasn't a real baby.
[laughter]
BROOKE LYNN: Shh.
ALLIE X: I actually really
liked her in the pageant.
BROOKE LYNN: Don't get me wrong.
She had some funny
moments where I laughed,
but we're down to the top six
here, and we've gotta nitpick.
STACEY: Miss Jimbo.
JEFFREY: That queen
can do comedy
like no one else on that stage.
Unfortunately, when it comes
to her fashion journey,
this week she just
pew turd city.
BROOKE LYNN: That was the worst
she's looked all season.
ALLIE X: Yes,
the outfit was horrendous,
but it was horrendously awesome.
BROOKE LYNN: Blech
Hated it.
Hated it!
STACEY: Scarlett BoBo.
ALLIE X: Scarlett BoBo
was very strong tonight.
JEFFREY: Just so glamourous,
and yet still so Scarlett BoBo.
She still had that edge.
In the Miss Loose Jaw pageant,
the bitch was funny.
BROOKE LYNN: I think
BoBo is, by far,
the most consistent person
we have in this competition.
She hasn't won anything.
She hasn't been
the worst at anything.
But she's just been
consistently good.
ALLIE X: Maybe it's
her moment to rise.
STACEY: Alright, have
we made some decisions?
BROOKE LYNN: I think so, yup.
JEFFREY: Yup.
STACEY: Bring back
our congenial misses.
ALLIE X: Welcome back, queens.
STACEY: Based
on your performance
in the maxi challenge,
and your runway presentation,
we have made some decisions.
Lemon, your Miss Fitt
packed pizzazz,
and your runway, Lemon,
squeezed the juice,

to be able to come on this show
and be open about being
who I am, as a two-spirit,
indigenous person,
and I hope that my story
and just me being here
and me being myself,
can inspire and empower
other people like me.
STACEY: We really do
love you, Ilona Verley.
Now, sashay away.
ILONA: Thank you.
I might be leaving,
but party girls never die!

ILONA: I want people
to remember me as loud,
obnoxious, all these things.
Like, I just want them
to remember who I am.
It took me forever to get here,
and to just be happy
with being me, even if
it pisses people off
or, you know,
makes people happy.
It doesn't matter because
at the end of the day,
if I'm living my life
and I feel good about myself,
that's what matters.
ILONA: So
[screams & laughs]

ALLIE X: Hi, baby girl.
ILONA: Hi!
ALLIE X: You were so good!
ILONA: Thank you!
Oh, that was such an honour.
I'm literally such a big fan.
ALLIE X: You really
caught my attention today,
just your whole spirit,
your whole being.
ILONA: Thank you
for everything you do,
and for being a part
of the queer community
and supporting drag artists.
ALLIE X: It's my honour.
You guys lift me up,
so I have to do what I can.
ILONA: Thank you.
Thank you.
That's better than a crown!
I don't need a crown.
I got to hug Allie X!
[blows kisses]
Oh!
ILONA: Bye, sissies.

RUPAUL: Next time
on Canada's Drag Race

paired with one of our
Rainbow Railroad newcomers,
and make them over
into the newest members
of your drag family.
SCARLETT: Let them have it.
Let them have it!
SCARLETT: He goes, "I've
never worn heels before."
It feels like you've
worn heels before.
PRIYANKA: So up here,
I'm gonna drop it low.
Stare at the judges.
Say if you put this bitch
in the bottom again,
you'll have some words.
JUDGE: The two of you
had amazing chemistry.
JEFFREY: You brought
the fun, honey.
STACEY: Your runway presentation
was quite underwhelming.
BROOKE LYNN: Are you in
pain yet from that tuck?
