Canada's Drag Race 2x2

1. Previously on Canada's Drag Race.

2. We want you to create a haut check couture look

3. that screams premier party eleganza.

4. It was not as confident as I want you to be.

5. You didn't understand the assignment.

6. You just elevated the shit out of this challenge.

7. Icesis Couture, condragulations.

8. Gia Metric, shantay you stay.

9. Beth, sashay away.

10. We did it!

11. Oh, my God.

12. I am very sad to see Beth go,

13. but I'm so happy that everyone got to see

14. how amazing she actually is,

15. even if it was only for a short time.

16. She definitely wants you to do the cleaning, girl.

17. Oh, she wrote "bye."

18. Love you, Beth.

19. Does anyone have any last words.

20. It was the Beth of times, it was the worst of times.

21. Sorry I had to send you home,

22. but, bitch, this is where I belong. So...

23. And now, let the games begin, ladies.

24. The pressure is on, Miss Gia,

25. and you better step it up,

26. or you're going to end up in the bottom again.

27. I honestly feel so lucky to still be here.

28. Mm, you deserve it.

29. When you dance,

30. that's when people connect with you.

31. Body language, mama,

32. and we all got to see that tonight.

33. It was absolutely terrifying being in the bottom,

34. and that will never happen again.

35. Speaking of congratulations.

36. The first Maxi Challenge I won,

37. and now they know who their competing with.

38. So, so good.

39. Well-deserved.

40. So, I'm safe this week on a design challenge,

41. which I didn't expect.

42. Design and sewing is what I do,

43. so I really have to step my game up.

44. Girl, let's get this shit off and let's go.

45. That's what I wanted to hear!

46. This pinata needs to come off.

47. Looking around this room,

48. the competition is fierce.

49. Season two is on, bitches.

50. But I'm still the one to beat.

51. The winner of Canada's Drag Race receives a sickening

52. supply of beauty products from Shopper's Drug Mart,

53. and a cash prize of $100,000.

54. With Traci Melchor,

55. Brad Gorescki,

56. and Brooke Lynn Hytes.

57. With tonight's extra special guest judge,

58. Hollywood Jade.

59. She's aloof.

60. It's a new day in the Werk Room

61. and I'm so excited.

62. I can't wait to see what's coming.

63. - Eve, my darling. - Yes.

64. We were, uh...

65. We were shedding some tears on the runway.

66. Was I? I don't know.

67. Yeah! Just a little bit.

68. More than a little.

69. Literally, you were like—

70. I'm like, bitch, shut up!

71. I love me some Eve,

72. it just was not her moment to cry like that.

73. In my mind, I was in the bottom.

74. So, the amount of relief, like, the emotion was just so intense.

75. You still got to perform though, babe.

76. That was a performance.

77. - Yes.

78. Oh, Canada.

79. She done already done had herses.

80. Lady kings and gentlemen,

81. children of all ages,

82. Canada's next drag superstar

83. needs to put the tramp in trampoline,

84. juggle a whole lot of balls,

85. and jump through several many hoops.

86. The time has come to let your freak show show.

87. - Bonjour! Hello! Hey!

88. It's just your nosey neighbours.

89. Come on in, hon.

90. Yoo-hoo!

91. Oh, Traci's here!

92. Oh, my God. She looks beautiful!

93. You know her, you love her,

94. and you better treat her nice,

95. because this year she's judging you.

96. It's Traci Melchor!

97. Canada's girlfriend is now a judge!

98. Now, would you say it's a beautiful day

99. in the gay-bourhood?

100. Always.

101. This week's Mini Challenge is brought to you by Door Dash.

102. Ooh.

103. You're going to need to show us all that's good in your hood.

104. We want to see what makes your community special

105. in the first ever

106. Queen of My Neighbourhood Pageant.

107. Ooh!

108. You'll have just 20 minutes to get into your finest

109. neighborhood repping quick drag.

110. Ooh.

111. Ready to get regional?

112. This drag dash starts now!

113. I'm actually starving. Let's order lunch.

114. Are you buying?

115. Sure.

116. Girl, yes.

117. Ooh. What am I going to get?

118. Something fried.

119. Oh, my God. I don't know what to do with myself.

120. Child, do you know what it's like stuffing a couch

121. in 2.5 seconds?

122. Oh, my God. I feel disgusting.

123. It's not full coverage foundation anymore, hun.

124. Classic beauty.

125. Thank you.

126. Welcome, Adriana from Vieux-Québec, Quebec City.

127. A queen from her neighbourhood is a queen who knows how to

128. wear a skirt during winter,

129. because she has to keep her sugar shack fresh.

130. Ooh, her fleurs-de-lis are showing.

131. Next is Eve 6000.

132. Hey.

133. From Church Street in Toronto.

134. She's wearing the only dress left in her closet,

135. because the rest of them have been puked on.

136. If she were home right now, you'd likely find her blackout

137. drunk at her local gay bar.

138. Oh!

139. Here comes Océane Aqua-Black

140. from Vieux-Québec, Quebec City.

141. Oh!

142. She's wearing poutine with cheese and fries.

143. It's obvious she's the gravy,

144. because she's full of cholesterol.

145. Her words, not mine.

146. If she could describe her neighbourhood in one word,

147. it would be "historical"

148. because of the history of the place

149. where there is a lot of history.

150. Here's Icesis Couture from Downtown Ottawa.

151. She's wearing Royal Guard attire,

152. because the only way to a crown

153. is to put in the work.

154. Here comes Gia Metric from

155. Sunset Beach, Vancouver.

156. I'll have what she's having.

157. If there's one thing she wants the world to know about

158. her neighbourhood is that it might be beautiful BC,

159. but it's not as beautiful as she.

160. Next is Kimora Amour from Scarborough.

161. She's wearing her Sunday best on her way to church.

162. A queen from her neighbourhood is a queen who knows

163. how to slay the spirit.

164. Introducing Kendall Gender,

165. from Davie Village, Vancouver.

166. If she could sum up her neighbourhood in three words,

167. she would describe it as

168. "sassy, flashy, and gassy."

169. Phew!

170. Next up is Suki Doll

171. from Downtown Montreal.

172. Her look is dedicated to the iconic orange

173. construction cones that are found in her neighbourhood.

174. This is Synthia Kiss

175. from West End, Vancouver.

176. A perfect date in her neighbourhood would be

177. fresh ocean air, fresh sushi,

178. and maybe some fresh dick.

179. Next up is Pythia from Villa Maria, Montreal.

180. She's wearing orange because she stops traffic, honey.

181. Girl, there's a lot of construction in Montreal.

182. Welcome Stephanie Prince from Downtown Calgary.

183. What people would be surprised to know about her neighbourhood,

184. is cowboys have bigger dicks than horses.

185. Ow!

186. I'm fine.

187. Oh! Another one!

188. Did she leave with anything on?

189. No, it's all here.

190. You all look amazing,

191. but one of you is the supreme of your scene.

192. The winner of the Queen of My Neighbourhood Pageant is...

193. Océane Aqua-Black!

194. I've never felt so beautiful!

195. You've won a $1000 Door Dash gift card.

196. For all the poutine you want, girl.

197. And Door Dash is giving you $5000 to donate

198. to a queer safe space of your choice

199. in your neighbourhood.

200. Thank you so much, guys.

201. I am so honoured to be able to help the community

202. and make a difference.

203. As drag takes over the world,

204. audiences far and wide are falling in love with it.

205. But the magic of drag was not always understood.

206. Early performers were considered freaks and clowns

207. of the entertainment scene.

208. Today, some of the world's biggest drag superstars

209. wear those labels as badges of honour,

210. and in this week's Maxi Challenge,

211. you will, too.

212. You'll all star in the original

213. Canada's Drag Race Rusical,

214. Under the Big Top.

215. A Rusical! I'm so excited.

216. And tomorrow, you'll perform it

217. on the main stage.

218. Yes!

219. Live.

220. No!

221. Live? Li— live? Who?

222. Huh? Live?

223. That's right. Live.

224. Singing live? Are you crazy?

225. Can you not hear my voice right now?

226. But don't worry. To get you stage ready,

227. you're going to be rehearsing

228. with Broadway baby Tom Allison

229. and resident choreographer

230. Hollywood Jade.

231. Yes!

232. We'll leave it to you to divvy up the roles.

233. Brad, shall we?

234. Racers, start your engines,

235. and may the best drag queen win!

236. Bye!

237. Welcome to the theatre darling.

238. Under the Big Top is a Rusical about

239. a young ingenue clown

240. and she's trying to find her way

241. in the clowning world.

242. A clown Rusical!

243. Are you kidding me?

244. I was literally born to be part of this.

245. So, should we start dividing up the roles?

246. I know who I want..

247. My drag is really, like, underground and spooky.

248. So, I really, really, really want Hennywise.

249. I can see that.

250. Hennywise is a very spooky-ooky clown that loves to

251. freak people out and that is very much my drag.

252. I feel comfortable with singing and dancing.

253. So, I'm kind of feeling Corsette.

254. Oh!

255. Come on, ingenue.

256. My first and actually my only choice is Himbo.

257. Himbo closes the show,

258. and who better to close the show than me, baby?

259. We have Ring Mistress is the next role.

260. So, I think I could comedically sing it.

261. Okay.

262. I'm not the strongest singer,

263. but I can sell things.

264. Kimora, what were you thinking?

265. I'm looking for roles that require no singing.

266. Baby we can hum as tune,

267. but that's as far as it goes

268. It would be good doing a Bianca.

269. You would be great.

270. Bianca is a sassy comedy clown

271. that will read your ass down.

272. Okay, let's go for it, let's go for it.

273. I can sing, and I feel like I would like to do Revealiana.

274. Revealiana is not a singing role, though.

275. Yeah, but I'll make it a singing role,

276. because I'm going to sing it.

277. You got your own flair to it.

278. Who wants Bing, Bang, and Bong?

279. I'm comfortable doing characters.

280. I'll take Bong. I like Bong.

281. Who doesn't have a character?

282. I'm a great dancer.

283. Okay, so we have Lace and Leather,

284. which are dancing roles.

285. - Yes. - It's quite a few bars,

286. so it's going to be ka-kata-ka-kata-ka.

287. I'll only do Lace and Leather with the right person, though.

288. I would like to do that part.

289. I want it. It's my only choice.

290. I actually like Lace and Leather, also.

291. I'm not a trained dancer, but I can vogue, too.

292. Well, I'm not giving it up.

293. I think we need a ball.

294. - We need a ball. - I think we need—

295. A ball!

296. I am a dancer, so this is going to be a breeze.

297. Can I see? Just for me.

298. That Leather and Lace.

299. Everybody is living for this ball, honey.

300. It's chaotic, but bitch this feels like home.

301. That Lace and Leather.

302. It's pretty obvious that

303. Suki is not winning this dance-off.

304. Sorry, Suki.

305. Take whatever's left.

306. Bing is the leftover, and I ain't no leftover.

307. If it's going to be like that,

308. I'll take Bing and I'll snatch it.

309. Perfect.

310. We got our cast.

311. I feel good about this.

312. Yeah. I feel really good.

313. This week's Maxi Challenge is a Rusical

314. and we have to sing live on stage.

315. Not pre-recorded.

316. So, this is going to be a wild ride.

317. These are the leading roles which have the most lines

318. and the most lyrics, and since it's live—

319. If they fuck up one word, they're done.

320. Yeah.

321. Icesis and I are the mean girls,

322. and, bitch, we are method actors.

323. Who are you most concerned about

324. in terms of groups or characters?

325. Bing, Bang, Bong.

326. Suki is not a comedy queen.

327. Hey, Corsette, it's nice to meet ya.

328. Hey, there!

329. Oops, did I— Oops, did I electrocute ya?

330. Good luck being a clown, bitch.

331. Well, hello, my darlings.

332. - Hi. - Hello.

333. Hey.

334. It is time for vocal coaching with Tom Allison.

335. First thing I want to say is this,

336. it's not about the singing,

337. it's about serving it up, right?

338. That's it. It's all about being the character.

339. - So, Pythia. - It's Hennywise.

340. Come on, baby.

341. Broadway royalty coaching me.

342. My little theatre gay Greek heart is freaking out.

343. Oh, I love stunt casting. Let's see what your take is.

344. I know that Hennywise is more of, like,

345. a physical comedy role.

346. So, my biggest challenge is really nailing

347. the character's voice and mannerisms.

348. There it is.

349. Okay!

350. That's it. It's the grotesque.

351. Yes.

352. But you know, the beauty and the glamour.

353. It's Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard.

354. - Explore the weirdness of it.

355. I may not be able to sing,

356. but I know that I can turn the freak on.

357. That's fantastic.

358. Miss Corsette, do you want to hit us with it? Let's hear it.

359. - Absolutely, let's do this. - Alright.

360. Oh! That bitch can sing!

361. Okay, alright.

362. So, you sing.

363. Yes.

364. Did you get that?

365. I love me some musical theatre growing up.

366. So, this is definitely dusting off some old skills.

367. That's gold. Go with that, you're good to go.

368. One and done.

369. Oh, my God. She said songstress!

370. So, Ring Mistress.

371. Yes.

372. Let's hear it.

373. Hold there. Hold. Thank you.

374. She was just a little off key.

375. A little higher?

376. Too bad there's no Autotune with live singing.

377. Good luck.

378. ♪ There's a whole world

379. ♪ There's

380. I am searching for this note, honey.

381. I have my GPS out.

382. Alright, thank you.

383. But I'm not finding it.

384. So, you're Bing, Bang, Bong, huh?

385. Yes.

386. Can you sing, sang, song? That's what we want to know.

387. I never sand in front of people before, live.

388. I don't know how it's going to come out.

389. This is cringey.

390. A little worried.

391. A little worried about the group.

392. Maybe it's not time to be clowning around, ladies.

393. We'll get there, we'll get there.

394. I promise you.

395. Let's see some gold.

396. Himbo is the most challenging

397. singing part of the whole Rusical,

398. and this is my week to take a challenge and prove myself.

399. Mm-hm, that's right, girls. Take it in.

400. Well, I feel like someone's done that before.

401. Hello, it's all about Eve.

402. I am really excited about vocal coaching,

403. because I know I can pull it off.

404. You're a singer, I believe.

405. I can— I mean— you know—

406. Oh, I don't want to get the expectations too high!

407. You better sing.

408. Oh, my gosh. ♪ Sleeve

409. She claims to be a singer, darling.

410. Is she a singer, though?

411. ♪ I got a

412. That first note is just completely throwing me off.

413. It's about using the character voice to get into it.

414. The script described this as comedy,

415. that would be the way to play it, if you ask me,

416. and you are, as I'm in an interview room.

417. I'm clearly being asked.

418. I really need to sell this performance

419. in order to turn around my trajectory in this competition.

420. Okay.

421. Thank you, thank you.

422. Eve, you said you were a singer, honey.

423. Mm-mm.

424. You're not.

425. - Bonsoir. - Hello.

426. Hi!

427. It's time for choreography

428. with Hollywood Jade.

429. Jesus help us.

430. We're going to get right into this,

431. because you two are our dancing divas.

432. Mm-hm.

433. So, the Leather and Lace role

434. requires a lot of dancing.

435. Your turn is one, jump out, two.

436. Okay. Turn.

437. And I don't know who can dance like me in this competition.

438. You're going to almost, like, grab your head and whip to down.

439. No, honey. It's whoop, down.

440. Come on, dancing queens.

441. Hollywood is giving Leather and Lace

442. a run for their money.

443. Bigger breath.

444. You think I'm joking, but I'm so serious.

445. Leather and Lace, to me, they're the it girls.

446. Back it up.

447. I know at some point I'm going to get it,

448. but I'm not sure about Icesis.

449. Cross your face.

450. - Holy fuck. Yeah. - Yes?

451. Right now I'm thinking maybe I bit off more than I can chew.

452. Let's see that. From the top.

453. This is not a bar performance,

454. and she's worried.

455. Up two, three, whip, four.

456. Shit.

457. Uh-huh.

458. You guys casted yourself?

459. Yes, they did.

460. And you saw that it said "dancers?"

461. - Mm-hm. - Yeah.

462. One more time.

463. - Ooh!

464. Miss Bianca, so, you're giving us,

465. sort of, like, stand-up comedy.

466. Although it's a speaking role, you have to be in count,

467. and there are musical cues to where you're supposed to

468. deliver and land your lines.

469. Well, how about being a bitch.

470. Well, how about being a bitch! You know what I mean?

471. Well, how about being a bitch!

472. Uh-huh.

473. I'm Bianca, nice to meet ya.

474. - Not really. - Work.

475. Hey, you want to be a clown?

476. Honey, the spirit has taken over.

477. I'm letting you have it, but guess what?

478. I'm just going to be keeping on moving all the way back here.

479. - I can go.

480. And, you know what? I'm about to be done.

481. I love the energy, the attitude.

482. This hand-wave, walking back, baby.

483. Yes, and ladies,

484. this is an example of committing completely.

485. She doesn't know all of her words,

486. but you know what?

487. She came out here and she performed it.

488. Bring on the clowns.

489. And right away. Like, you don't have to wait.

490. And then shimmy.

491. Okay, um...

492. That's a choice.

493. I'm generally a good dancer when it's my move.

494. To learn choreography from someone that is in the business,

495. it's kind of intimidating.

496. Keep 'em rolling on the floor. Turn, down.

497. Bing, Bang, and Bong.

498. Oh, there's some clowns in this circus.

499. The narrative is more important than the step.

500. If you commit to your character,

501. whatever you do, we will accept.

502. I'm in a state of panic right now.

503. One, two, three. Wrong side.

504. One more time. Here we go.

505. This is chaos.

506. How are we going to do this?

507. I want to cry.

508. Toronto!

509. It's elimination day!

510. Who's going home, ladies?

511. Because it's not me.

512. You look like you're stressed.

513. - I am. - You're rushing.

514. I'm always stressed.

515. I'm trying to rush so we have enough time to practice.

516. For self-proclaimed dance queen,

517. I really need to nail this performance.

518. We are rapping, and I barely speak English.

519. I am from Colombia,

520. but I moved to Quebec City 13 years ago.

521. You eat a lot of shit going to a new country, I think.

522. Of course.

523. The first months are so hard.

524. You have to get used to

525. a completely different culture,

526. another language, trying to make friends.

527. Moving here to Canada, you would think your life—

528. Gets better.

529. —gets better right away, but actually it didn't.

530. No, it's really the reality.

531. Like, we grew up in subsidized housing, like,

532. with other immigrant kids. We're, like, first generation.

533. And then facing all the racism.

534. Oh, and homophobia.

535. People think that this is not a reality in Canada.

536. It doesn't help that I'm gay,

537. a closeted gay,

538. I was a fat kid,

539. - and I'm Asian. - Oh, were you?

540. Yeah, I used to be over 300 pounds.

541. It's 'cause I was a depressed kid.

542. I was not happy at all.

543. Um, you know, growing up in the Philippines is really hard.

544. When I was a kid, I was bullied and teased

545. by my friends and my family,

546. and, like, I feel like nobody is on my team.

547. That's rough.

548. Hearing Stephanie's story,

549. it just shook me, 'cause as drag queens

550. we always present this strong character,

551. and sometimes you don't know what the person

552. next to you has experienced.

553. I was like you, 'cause, like, I was adopted,

554. so I never, like, really struggled

555. with the culture shock. My parents, like,

556. abandoned me in the forest back in Haiti.

557. - What? - Oh, no!

558. Yeah, yeah. They found me in a forest.

559. I was 11 months.

560. - What the fuck? - What?

561. Yeah, I've been put into an orphanage,

562. and then my parents adopted me.

563. For me, being abandoned as a baby is not a sad story,

564. because if that didn't happen,

565. I don't think that I could have been doing

566. drag if I'd stayed in Haiti,

567. and I wouldn't have been adopted

568. by this incredible family.

569. Well, thank God they did.

570. I'm so lucky.

571. Thank God they did.

572. And you were fed well.

573. Yes!

574. That's what we want to see.

575. Welcome to the Main Stage of Canada's Drag Race.

576. He's been a Brad, Brad boy.

577. It's the dashing Brad Goreski.

578. Hey, Brad. Am I sickening?

579. Honey, I think you've got leopard-cy.

580. And looky here. It's my queen supreme.

581. Traci Melchor.

582. Thank you. Having me here is such a kind jester.

583. And our good friend, choreographer extraordinaire,

584. Hollywood Jade.

585. You know how I can tell you're a dancer?

586. How, Brooke?

587. You got a little boogie.

588. This week, we challenged the queens to

589. clown the house down in the original Rusical,

590. Under the Big Top.

591. Racers, start your engines.

592. And may the best drag queen win.

593. And now, it's time for the world premier of

594. Under the Big Top Live.

595. Oh, look. Another basic clown,

596. and this one seems hopeless.

597. Well, I'd better get to work.

598. Hey, lady!

599. Who the honk are you?

600. This is a dream sequence, stupid.

601. I'm your Fairy Clownmother.

602. I'm here to show you all that you can be under the big top.

603. Under the what?

604. Oh, honey. Under the big top!

605. So, do you know any jokes?

606. There once was a clown from Nantucket—

607. Oh, God. You're worse off than I thought.

608. Let's leave it to the comedy pros.

609. Send in the clowns!

610. That exploded right in my hand!

611. That's what your boyfriend said last night!

612. Why I oughta!

613. You wouldn't dare. You would. Knock, knock!

614. Who's there?

615. Or, as the French say, les blagues.

616. Remix!

617. Excuse me.

618. Jokes?

619. Well, the audience wasn't laughing.

620. Ooh. Those are the fashion clowns.

621. So beautiful, but no sense of humour.

622. Leather?

623. Lace?

624. Let's walk.

625. You need to find your shtick.

626. You are putting on a show after all.

627. Make them want more!

628. If a shtick is what you seek,

629. how about becoming a freak?

630. That's disgusting.

631. Too far?

632. Okay, well, back to Brooke Lynn's basement I go.

633. Hm, I'm starting to think having

634. a shtick isn't for me.

635. Well, how about being a bitch.

636. I'm Bianca, nice to meet you.

637. Not really. I've been booked in a lot of

638. shit gigs in Canada before,

639. but a teenage clown's acid trip, huh?

640. That's a real career high.

641. So, Corsette, is it?

642. You want to be a clown?

643. Well, don't ask me girl, ask Traci's make-up.

644. Or better yet, ask Brad's wardrobe.

645. Now, there's one thing about me,

646. you always gotta keep the audience on their toes,

647. but when it comes to being on your knees,

648. you better ask Hollywood Jade.

649. Now, anyways, though, girl.

650. It ain't easy being mean, so find your own shtick.

651. Now, beat it, queen.

652. Now I'm more confused than ever.

653. Do I even want to be a clown anymore?

654. Alright, kid. I've got one more to show you,

655. and this clown's going to be the Himbo of your dreams.

656. Your wet dreams.

657. Only $3.99 if you subscribe right now.

658. Well, you've seen them all.

659. What kind of clown are you?

660. Why do I have to choose?

661. Well, to be honest,

662. none of this really matters.

663. All that matters is that you go on stage and be yourself.

664. Ugh, kid. Just make them fucking laugh.

665. Category is Circus Berzerkus.

666. First up, Icesis Couture.

667. I am serving head to toe mime clown fantasy.

668. She's silent, but deadly.

669. It's always the quiet ones.

670. Mm-hm.

671. This outfit is everything.

672. I want the judges to see confidence in my runway look,

673. I want them to love it so much that

674. they can't put me in the bottom.

675. Next, Gia Metric.

676. It's a bird, it's a plane.

677. No, it's just Gia Metric, baby.

678. The Canadian human cannonball!

679. Ah!

680. She's a not so straight shooter.

681. My collar is popped, my waist is cinched,

682. and I am feeling aerodynamic, honey.

683. Watch me soar.

684. Who doesn't love a big bang?

685. Kendall Gender.

686. What is this hybrid?

687. She is half human, half horse.

688. Hey, girl, hey.

689. - I'd ride her.

690. I am galloping down this runway,

691. giving you showgirl show pony.

692. She done already had horses.

693. Eve 6000.

694. I am serving insane clown pussy on the runway.

695. I mean, is she kitten us with this look?

696. I am giving Lucille Ball as a circus clown

697. being swallowed by a lion.

698. Cat got your tongue?

699. This look is campy, it's sexy, it's funny.

700. This is the cat's meow.

701. Océane Aqua-Black.

702. Is the circus in town or are you just happy to see me?

703. I am serving circus tent realness.

704. This is the whole circus itself.

705. Ooh, she is giving me big top energy.

706. Tents, tents, tents across the board.

707. Get your tickets early, honey,

708. 'cause this is a show you don't want to miss.

709. Synthia Kiss.

710. I'm serving you Corsette all grown up.

711. I'm wearing huge hair and a colourful poncho.

712. So, baby, watch me twirl.

713. She's a baller.

714. This look is all legs. I'm walking down this runway

715. feeling fabulous, flirty, and fun.

716. This look's got balls, baby.

717. And now, Pythia.

718. We are walking down the runway.

719. Oh, wow.

720. And I'm feeling so beautiful and so stunning.

721. I'm giving sensuality, but also eeriness,

722. and I'm just letting them take every single inch of me,

723. and her.

724. Two girls, one tuck.

725. I am ready to read all these bitches fortunes to filth.

726. The other girls say she's a two-faced bitch.

727. Kimora Amour.

728. My dress is everything you find

729. at the end of the circus.

730. I got all the popcorn bags, I got all the cans of soda.

731. Bitch, I am wearing trash.

732. Reduce, reuse, re-circus.

733. She may be the trashiest clown out there,

734. but she is sweeping up the bitches with that broom.

735. Do I make you corny, baby? Do I?

736. Suki Doll.

737. I'm walking down the runway giving you tent,

738. giving you money, giving you the full storyline.

739. She said, "I'm going to pull you out of my hat."

740. What's behind that tent?

741. Oh, 10 inches.

742. Something tells me this isn't her first time

743. under a big top.

744. Adriana.

745. I'm giving the judges bizarro freak aerial artist.

746. She's walking a fine line.

747. This is a well-balanced look.

748. I am walking this tight rope,

749. and I am showing you more than

750. 8000 stones on my body-ody-ody.

751. I've never been so shiny.

752. I hear she's got a tight rope.

753. And finally, Stephanie Prince.

754. I'm serving you circus burlesque showgirl,

755. and then, boom, she's a bearded lady.

756. And her beard goes all the way down to her vagina, bitch.

757. She's my hairy godmother.

758. I am giving you circus freak chic.

759. Look at my tassels. So shiny.

760. Bitch, she might be hairy, but my tits are fucking smooth.

761. We shaved the best for last.

762. Welcome, queens.

763. When I call your name, please step forward.

764. Icesis Couture.

765. Kendall Gender.

766. Suki Doll.

767. Océane Aqua-Black.

768. Gia Metric.

769. Pythia.

770. Eve 6000.

771. You all represent the tops and bottoms this week.

772. The rest of you are safe.

773. You may go untuck in the Werk Room.

774. It is time for the judges' critiques.

775. First up, Suki Doll.

776. I love this kind of fun club kid take on the circus theme.

777. I adore your attention to detail,

778. but I really wish you had brought more of that

779. to the challenge.

780. There was some messiness happening.

781. I couldn't quite figure out what had been directed to you,

782. and what was just kind of being made up in the moment.

783. Your group has the hardest part,

784. because you had the most group work,

785. and there was a lot of chaos going on,

786. and chaos is great for clowns,

787. but there needs to be organized chaos.

788. Gia Metric.

789. I have to say. Your performance as Himbo,

790. you were just, for me, Gia Mesmerizing.

791. You gave me all my 80s fantasies.

792. You're electric,

793. you had your rock star poses down.

794. I loved how much you brought of your own self to it,

795. and this look? Tens, baby. Tens.

796. Yes! Woo-hoo!

797. Well, this week, I think it's safe to say you most definitely

798. understood the assignment.

799. Thank you so much.

800. Kendall Gender.

801. Correct me if I'm wrong that perhaps you might not

802. be a singing queen.

803. No.

804. But you took this challenge,

805. and you made it work for you,

806. and you killed it.

807. It's commitment that I love.

808. A singer you may not be, but a professional

809. you most certainly are.

810. Tell me about this look,

811. 'cause I love a showgirls moment.

812. It's kind of a blend of a showgirl and a show pony.

813. I like that duality, you know?

814. Because you were animalistic,

815. but yet you were also very fabulous and glamorous.

816. Can I get a neigh-men?

817. - Neigh!

818. Next, Icesis Couture.

819. Hello.

820. I'm going to ask you the age-old question.

821. How's your head?

822. It's fine, thanks for asking.

823. 'Cause it didn't see fine in that challenge.

824. You seemed very in your head.

825. I did feel like Stephanie was maybe

826. carrying you a little bit in parts,

827. instead of you being a duo together.

828. Unfortunately for me, it's a no,

829. especially since you battled for this role.

830. I thought I was a dancer.

831. - Like, a dancing queen coming

832. into this competition, and then I met Hollywood.

833. Listen, I understand. His choreography is not easy.

834. I mean, I don't even like walking behind him on a runway,

835. you know? Hollywood Jade is perfection.

836. Your runways and your presentations are so polished,

837. just remember to also carry it into the challenges.

838. When you're doing something live and you mess up,

839. don't let us see it.

840. I watched you mess up and then just go, whoo.

841. It was like you gave up, and you're too good for that.

842. Thank you.

843. Eve 6000.

844. Your runway look, I'm going to say it's perfect.

845. Incredible. So fun.

846. Your presentation of it was great.

847. Thank you.

848. But when it comes to the challenge,

849. it was just very, very flat for me.

850. Okay.

851. I was feeling like you were a little bit hesitant.

852. A little unsure of yourself.

853. I've never sang live on stage before.

854. So, I was really, really, really trying to get that first note,

855. and set myself up for a good vocal performance.

856. Obviously, y'all are not singers.

857. I can't even imagine having to sing live.

858. So, I'm not sitting here trying to critique your singing.

859. It was the performance for me.

860. It was supposed to be super campy, super fun,

861. and it just didn't hit the mark.

862. I want to see more.

863. I want to see even more.

864. You're fired.

865. Océane Aqua-Black.

866. Hi!

867. What was it like working in a trio during the performance?

868. Um, we struggled.

869. I felt that Suki and Adriana,

870. they had their little group going on

871. and you were off by yourself.

872. I think that what happened is that I lost my focus completely.

873. So, it took me out of the number.

874. Inner saboteur, honey.

875. Yeah.

876. I agree with what the judges are saying,

877. but you are a joy to watch, and I think you did a really

878. good job of interpreting this runway challenge.

879. Thank you so much.

880. Pythia.

881. This look has me seeing double.

882. Flawless.

883. It looks so much like you.

884. You go the paint exact.

885. It's sensational.

886. When they say "the art of drag,"

887. this is what they mean.

888. This is art, head to toe.

889. Loved your performance, I thought it was great.

890. You came onto the stage ready to play.

891. You were selling it with your facial expressions,

892. with your body, everything.

893. You were that character.

894. You scared the shit out of me.

895. Good.

896. And it was just really easy to get lost in your character,

897. and I really, really enjoyed it.

898. That means the world.

899. I mean it, thank you so much.

900. Thank you, queens. We have some very,

901. very tough decisions to make.

902. While you untuck in the Werk Room,

903. the judges will make balloon animals.

904. Hi!

905. Hi, ladies.

906. Come on in, tops and bottoms.

907. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my God.

908. So, how's everyone doing?

909. I'm really, really upset.

910. Like, slightly embarrassed.

911. I mean, I won last week

912. and now I'm probably going to be lip syncing.

913. I'm really nervous after what the judges have said.

914. I'm really scared that today's the day

915. that I'm going to go home.

916. So, based on people's faces when they walked in,

917. I'm assuming you're winning, you're winning, you're winning.

918. Pythia, Kendall, and Gia.

919. I think that's the top three that

920. I sort of felt from the judges.

921. Really? Is that the impression you got?

922. I thought it was the opposite.

923. Oh!

924. Well, you do— you do love delusion.

925. My reveals didn't exactly go as planned.

926. However, I think that does work for the character.

927. So, I do feel like I did a really great job.

928. The way that they're critiquing it,

929. they didn't judge you for your singing.

930. If I knew that it was okay to just sing badly...

931. Eve, girl? Really? We're doing this again?

932. - No offence, but if I knew... - Okay, you're in your feelings.

933. - If you want to lash out. - ... that it was okay to, like—

934. No, I'm not doing that.

935. I thought that they would have been judging the singing more.

936. They weren't judging Kendall on her singing

937. because she took the role, she made it her own,

938. and she got on that stage,

939. and just because she couldn't sing,

940. that didn't stop her from shining bright like a star.

941. - No, I know. I'm not— - So, don't—

942. No, no, no, but don't— don't—

943. don't be throwing, like, shade at Kendall just because, like,

944. you're in your feelings right now.

945. I don't need you guys to gang up on me.

946. What?

947. Eve, no one is ganging up on you.

948. Gia is my fiery sister, and she will always defend me,

949. and I'm really not here to be your punching bag.

950. I do have something to say to you actually,

951. and I was going to say this anyway.

952. Eve, Eve.

953. Eve! No, girl! No!

954. I came into this and I was so happy to see you,

955. but I feel like since I've been here

956. I just kind of feel like you ignore me,

957. and I just feel like you're kind of, like,

958. in your own world with, like, Gia and Synthia.

959. Yeah, no shit. Obviously, Kendall, Synthia,

960. and I are going to be kikiing,

961. be having conversations together,

962. doing our make-up together, because we're family.

963. I just kind of feel like every time I try to talk to you,

964. you kind of just don't pay attention to me.

965. I don't know where exactly this is coming from.

966. Well, I'm really sorry that you feel like that.

967. I genuinely am not that person.

968. But that's just my opinion,

969. and I've been wrong many times, so...

970. Nobody in here hates you.

971. Well, I didn't say everybody hates me,

972. but now that you guys are saying it.

973. - Bitch, we hate you!

974. Just between us Debbie Clowners, what do we think?

975. Starting with Suki.

976. It wasn't the role that she wanted,

977. and I think she struggled with that,

978. but I think that she really, really tried.

979. Her runway look was spectacular.

980. Also, to be able to walk the runway in, like,

981. 10 inch platform boots like that,

982. you gotta take that into consideration.

983. David Bowie would be proud.

984. Now, let's talk Gia Metric.

985. Performance? Perfection.

986. Himbo was the star of that performance.

987. She committed whole-heartedly,

988. and I bought all of it.

989. I wanted to subscribe.

990. The runway was really good, too.

991. My only issue is I've seen it all before.

992. Mm-hm.

993. Up next we have Icesis Couture.

994. Icesis' performance as Lace was lackluster for me.

995. I really wanted to see that mean girl, sarcastic,

996. almost bitchy energy, and you can't give that

997. if you're not confident in your dance moves.

998. Once the train was off the track,

999. it never got back on.

1000. She won last week and she was incredible,

1001. and tonight on the runway she looked incredible,

1002. but to see her perform the first time, I was like,

1003. "Oh, are you just a look queen?"

1004. Up next we have Kendall Gender.

1005. She really overcame that obstacle of

1006. not being able to sing.

1007. She made it her own, and she brought us along

1008. on the journey with her.

1009. She was a show pony and I give her props.

1010. Yeah. It was a really great week for her.

1011. Up next, Eve 6000.

1012. I felt like she was hesitant and I really wanted to see her

1013. command her performance.

1014. The character's name was Revealiana.

1015. Mm-hm.

1016. And yet, the reveals weren't executed.

1017. Yeah, but then she came out here in this look,

1018. and I'm just like there's the humour.

1019. That's what we needed in the challenge.

1020. Océane Aqua-Black, from the house of the ocean.

1021. Océane as Bong, I felt like Océane was

1022. on the outside looking in.

1023. I was so excited when I saw her walk out in that little

1024. crop top and her wig, and she looked so silly,

1025. and I was like, "Oh, this is going to be good."

1026. And then it just kept falling flat.

1027. She didn't get any of the choreography,

1028. and it was just really disappointing

1029. because there's something about her.

1030. Every time she laughs, I just can't help but laugh.

1031. It just felt to me like Océane hit an iceberg.

1032. Her look, though, did not sink,

1033. but I'm not sure it's enough to save her.

1034. And last, but certainly not least, Pythia.

1035. Pythia understood what Hennywise was supposed to do

1036. on that stage.

1037. The look, the energy, the dance.

1038. We put her with the dancing queens,

1039. and she basically out-danced the queens.

1040. And then that runway look.

1041. Are you fucking kidding me?

1042. How dare she come out in that runway look?

1043. - The gumption. - The gumption.

1044. The gall!

1045. Oh, my goodness.

1046. A two-headed star is born.

1047. If that is any indication of what Pythia can do—

1048. Mm-hm.

1049. —she's definitely someone to keep an eye on

1050. in this competition.

1051. Season two, week two,

1052. and if this is the calibre of talent,

1053. good luck, kids. Okay? Good luck.

1054. We have a very big decision to make.

1055. Bring back our bearded ladies.

1056. Welcome back, queens.

1057. We have made some very tough decisions.

1058. Kendall Gender.

1059. You are safe.

1060. Thank you.

1061. You may move to the back of the stage.

1062. Eve 6000.

1063. You are safe.

1064. I am completely gagged.

1065. Thank you.

1066. Thank that runway look.

1067. Gia Metric.

1068. Your performance in the Rusical paid the rent,

1069. and your look on the runway made us pitch a tent.

1070. Pythia, in the Rusical, your scary clown left us dead,

1071. and on the runway, you gave us amazing heads.

1072. Condragulations, my dear.

1073. You are the winner of this week's Maxi Challenge.

1074. I won! Ha!

1075. I am so excited.

1076. You have won a $5000 gift certificate

1077. courtesy of People's Jewelers.

1078. Oh, my God. I get diamonds? Diamonds!

1079. Bling bling.

1080. You may join your sisters at the back of the stage.

1081. Both of you.

1082. Gia, you are safe.

1083. Thank you, judges.

1084. Océane.

1085. Your personality really floats our boat,

1086. but in the Rusical,

1087. you sink, sank, sunk.

1088. Océane, I'm so sorry, my dear,

1089. but you are up for elimination.

1090. Suki Doll, on the runway,

1091. you always strike a fierce pose,

1092. but tonight, in the Rusical, you just froze.

1093. Icesis Couture, we always see your spark,

1094. but in the Rusical, you really missed the mark.

1095. Suki Doll, you are safe.

1096. Woo!

1097. You may join the other queens.

1098. Thank you.

1099. Icesis, I'm sorry,

1100. but that means you are up for elimination.

1101. No!

1102. To go, like, straight to the bottom

1103. is just really hard.

1104. Two queens stand before us.

1105. Prior to tonight, you were asked to prepare

1106. a lip sync performance of

1107. "Stupid Shit" by Girlicious.

1108. This is your last chance to impress the judges

1109. and save yourself from elimination.

1110. The time has come...

1111. for you to lip sync

1112. for your life.

1113. Even if I have stumbled a little bit,

1114. I am a force to be reckoned with.

1115. I am going to give them a show.

1116. I need to shake off these emotions that I'm having,

1117. and fight for my place to stay here.

1118. Good luck, and don't fuck it up.

1119. Ooh, okay!

1120. Come on.

1121. I am giving you everything I've got right now.

1122. There is no way I'm going home.

1123. I'm on this stage

1124. and I'm not even focusing on Océane.

1125. I am here to show that I actually am a dancer.

1126. Remember when I said I had bad knees?

1127. I lied, bitch.

1128. I'm ready.

1129. Whoo!

1130. Good job!

1131. We've made our decision.

1132. Icesis Couture.

1133. Shantay you stay.

1134. Thank you.

1135. You may join the other queens.

1136. I love you.

1137. I love you, too.

1138. My sea-sickening queen.

1139. Océane levels are rising, and so is your star.

1140. Thank you for the extraordinary opportunity.

1141. Now, sashay away.

1142. Thank you to my sisters. I love you guys.

1143. So, now I get to go home and eat some cheeseburger.

1144. We love you!

1145. Love you!

1146. I'm not going to lie, I feel a little bit defeated,

1147. but it was just not my challenge.

1148. The Océane is rising,

1149. and she's coming to a city near you.

1150. You're going to be swallowed.

1151. Condragulations, queens. You live to slay another day.

1152. Remember, stay true north, strong and fierce.

1153. Now, let the music play.

1154. Next time on Canada's Drag Race.

1155. You will each unleash your inner scream queen,

1156. as you overact in a slasher film that we're calling Screech!

1157. It's the cut-off. I'm so sorry.

1158. I can see Synthia's in her head.

1159. Okay.

1160. Get out of there, girl!

1161. It's so pretty and fun and gross to look at

1162. at the same time.

1163. It takes a lot of courage to go on stage

1164. and just show yourself and be vulnerable.
