♪ MTV ♪
I've been nice to everybody in this competition,
and today I will stand my ground.
No fucking class or decorum, honey.
- Are you serious? - Ooh, ooh, ooh.
- I'm fucking pissed. - Say their names!
This is "Untucked," backstage at the competition
to become America's next drag superstar.
Girl, if you're not watching "Untucked,"
you're only getting half the story.
Five minutes to the main stage.
Queens walking.
Press "Untucked" cameras on the main stage.
Rolling, rolling.
Welcome, queens.
I've made some decisions.
But first, Sapphira,
do you want to use your immunity potion this week?
Yep.
[dramatic music]
You are safe to slay another day.
♪ ♪
I was a little miffed at myself
for drinking my potion, honestly.
I did not like it the second I said "yes."
My brain said "no," but my body said "yes."
And so I need some space, I need some grace,
and I need some me time.
Cameras rolling.
Sending Sapphira in three, two, one.
Whew.
Oh, yes, Lord.
With this challenge,
initially, I was very stressed out.
Clearly, last week really made things super real for me.
Ladies, you are all up for elimination.
And because of that, I was just shook.
And then, quite honestly, the energy from the other girls
definitely got in my way this week.
Some of them cutting with their eyes,
some of them cutting with their words.
Do you know who I think should maybe consider using
their immunity potion today?
Sapphira.
I thought, I'm in the bottom.
I'm in the bottom. I'm in the bottom.
But life is not about regrets.
We are where we are now, and so I'm good.
Ooh, peach bath bombs.
Oh.
Oh, my God.
Hey, girls.
Welcome to afters, darling.
Now, you were at Sapphira's afters, honey.
Sapphira afters?
We have some things to talk about.
I've been talking to myself this whole time.
She's having a full-ass conversation.
Hell, yeah, I'm having a conversation.
Honey, I'm an only child.
I can talk to myself all day long.
First of all, why did you drink your immunity?
- Yeah, let's talk about it. - I'll be honest.
My opinion wasn't asked, but can I give it?
Oh, this sounds like a Dawn moment.
It sounds like a Dawn moment.
- "Can I be honest?" - "Can I be honest?"
All right, go ahead.
You made it perfectly, but I'm thinking,
oh, she probably used her potion
because she probably thought that Michelle was going to say
it was off the rack or something,
because it looked so good that it does look like something
I would get at Macy's or Nordstrom.
Maybe Nordstrom's. [laughter]
Maybe Saks Fifth Avenue.
I didn't feel as confident as I normally do.
You don't want to be in the bottom, period.
Did you feel like you would have been in the bottom?
I looked at Michelle, and I tried to read them,
and they are good.
Ts Madison is a statue of stone.
- Yes. - She was looking at me,
and I said, oh, no, I'm going to take it.
Well, there's still a little bit left. I mean--
I'm not drinking that shit.
- How does it taste? - It tastes like bad jizz.
Xunami, you seem a little-- [laughter]
Were you a little-- - Listen, no.
Oh, yeah.
She thinks I was pissed because I thought
I was going to be in the top. - You did?
- No, no, it's not that. - Oh.
I'm pissed because I wanted to talk to Law Roach, okay?
[laughter] - Oh, my God.
Every time I would walk out,
I would make eye contact with Law Roach,
and he would always giving me, like, a smile.
I felt very warm energy from him.
That's why I was like, I just want to talk to him.
'Cause you're so handsome. [laughter]
You know what? I'll take it.
So, Nymphia, how do you feel?
'Cause I thought you were going to be in the top.
You're the fashion girl.
Like, that is your specialty, right?
- Yeah. - Yeah.
You look sickening.
Amanda left you that wig, right?
Yeah. You ask, and you shall receive.
Yeah.
And that's why you're safe today.
I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.
- Do you think it's the curse? - I'm joking.
Damn, maybe I should take my shit out of her spot.
Oh, no.
Do y'all want this wig?
Let's pass this wig. I don't want it anymore.
I want to take it off.
Is this why I'm here?
- You think it's a curse? - Ah!
Aah! [laughter]
I think my problem was,
I didn't really, like, do the branding stuff.
Like, writing is just not my thing.
She's such a little fake bitch.
Mama.
Miss Banana cried wolf.
'Cause she loves to lie, and I never believe anything
she says.
I don't lie. I just don't tell you.
That doesn't mean I'm lying.
As you're running around the Werk Room all yesterday,
being like, I don't know what I'm doing.
It's the whining.
- I'm so stressed out. - Girl.
Nobody believes you, Nymphia.
Look, she's over here taking a nap on the floor,
acting like she's having a fit, I swear to God.
I'm stressed out!
Oh.
No, I literally did go through where I'm, like,
thinking in my head, I don't know what I'm doing.
But, like, I was figuring it out.
I mean, the fact that you came up
with this bullshit right here, girl, that is fierce.
You know, stressing myself out is part of my own process.
I know people--you know, there she goes again,
insecure and not confident, but she ends up doing well.
That's, like, my whole process,
but I do still feel those things.
- I love touching Amanda. - I miss Amanda, too.
Who do you think's in the top?
Well, we know who's in the top.
Q, Dawn. - Plane.
Plane and Dawn.
Oh, right, Plane. Yes, Plane's was really good.
Speaking of, do you think Plane has changed?
Same lead. What the fuck are you talking about?
But I had, like, a really good conversation about--
Like, I understand being yourself.
- She scolded her. - I wasn't scolding her.
From the outside looking in,
I feel like you're misspeaking a lot.
Yeah.
I was wondering, like, if maybe there is a way
to stop that from happening for you.
At some point, people are going to get fed up with it.
Right. I get that, Mother.
Put me in my place.
I don't have a problem with her.
I have a problem with some of the things that she's done
and some of the things that she's said.
And she's not ostracising everybody,
but I think the way that she was--
You don't want her to go down that road.
You don't want to go down the road
because it goes beyond this. - That is true.
Do you think it's part of, like, a master plan of hers?
No.
It's about knowing, like, how to straddle
the line of being kind of shady but also having a punch line,
'cause if you just say a mean thing, that's not a joke,
that's just a mean comment.
Unfortunately, when it comes out of her mouth,
it's kind of like, what?
Can't tell if it's serious or not.
Yeah, but now that you've used your immunity,
Plane Jane is the only one with immunity.
So what are we selling to get hers, though?
Well, I actually feel like it would be the biggest gag
if she actually uses it on somebody else,
and I feel like she would do that.
She's such a perplexing character to me right now
in this competition.
That's the point of the game, baby.
Yeah. Listen, I was going to trade you
the trip to Spain for the immunity,
but you drank it, so...
- Oh. - [laughs]
Ru, I still got half of the immunity right here.
[laughs]
Oh!
Wait, let me get my drink. Hold on.
Grab those Long Islands. They're very strong.
I see happy faces.
Oh, yeah. I'm going to sit here.
- And it's a lot of colada. - Wait, wait.
- Cheers. - Cheers, baby.
Cheers.
So what is the tea?
What happened onstage while we were over here?
What did they say?
Well, first of all, Michelle loves my makeup now.
Mm-hmm.
No, but my gown was very simple,
and three of us on the runway used the same turquoise
stretched velvet,
and they were irritated
that I kept messing with the headscarf,
'cause in my walk, my headscarf fell twice,
and I put it back on both times.
Law Roach was like,
girl, a diva knows how to use a bobby pin.
[laughter] - Geneva.
Obviously, of course, as per usual, they love the makeup.
They love the hair. They love my energy.
It's just they were expecting the whole car fantasy.
The branding was confusing.
Had you sold me the Geneva Car Doll
with a great slogan like "Geneva Car, drive one,"
that's what this is about.
Bad decision, but it's okay.
But I feel like I'm going to be lip-synching again.
I am, like, in awe of your energy...
- Yeah. - Even though you are
in that position. - She's a pro at this point.
[laughter]
Nymphia, you are an evil little witch.
Rotten banana. all: Rotten banana.
- Miss Mhi'ya... - Mhi'ya.
How are you feeling, baby?
Basically, the judges-- they liked my look,
but I felt like I should have hemmed this,
which I did forget.
And then for my challenge, my branding off Queen of Lips,
I should have at least gave a flip for the runway.
But, most likely, I'm in the bottom.
- Miss Plane, how do you feel? - Yep.
Yes, what did they say about y'all, the top girls?
Honestly, they said my shirt was immaculate,
which, fierce, but Dawn and Q--
there were nothing but positive critiques,
so I'd be interested to see who, between you two, wins.
- She's finally in the top. - [laughs]
The highlight for me was Law Roach saying,
it's giving Balenciaga.
It's giving Paris Fashion Week.
Dawn, I will say your look was my favourite tonight.
'Cause Q is just, you know, second place.
[all scream]
So, Q, my winner, what did they say about you?
Can I be honest?
- Oh, everybody, take a drink. - Here's the Dawn-esty.
Aah! We're going to call it that--the Dawn-esty.
Cheers to the Dawn-esty!
all: Can I be honest? [laughter]
I want you to win because you deserve it so much,
but I want me to win more. [laughter]
I want Dawn to win just for the drama of it.
[all scream]
Honestly, you both did a fucking good job,
so whoever wins, you fucking deserve it.
It's pretty clear to me that I'm not the winner,
but it gives me the most joy to hear the judges say,
these other girls tried to use the same fabric as you,
but they could not achieve this effect.
- They said that? - Yes.
- Not in so many words. - That's not what they said.
Hold on. No, no, no. Roll that back.
Climb down that mountain, baby.
They said to one of you, if I saw her doing that
with my fabric,
I would have slapped the dog shit out of her.
They said that to me, but what she didn't know
is that Plane came over to my station
and took that fabric from me.
But you know what? I'm happy that I could give you this.
- Ooh! - Okay.
Can I ask a question? - What is it?
Plasma, how does it feel to know
that the judges are all rooting for you
to improve your makeup?
Here we go. [all shouting indistinctly]
This the other side of the leaf, kids,
the other side of the leaf!
I can't wait for you to crash and fucking burn, Plane.
[all scream]
Baby, you won't be here to see it.
You won't be here to see it. - Oh, my God.
What were you going to say, baby?
I was saying, how do you feel that the judges
are rooting for you to improve your makeup?
Your makeup looks gorgeous.
It's a little far from the Rita Hayworth
or the Barbra that I'm a little used to, Ru.
Yeah, no, it looks great.
I can't tell you how happy I am
to see your face and how it's progressing.
Honestly, Plasma, it looks so beautiful.
Do you feel that it was a big enough adjustment?
I do, because Michelle
has talked about how wonderful my makeup looks,
and Ru said how wonderful my makeup looks...
- Ru did say you look gorgeous. - Two weeks in a row.
You sound defensive. I'm not--
There's nothing that I'm saying
to cause you to be on the defensive, sister.
Plane, when your body language states
that you get up and you make a spectacle of yourself
right here in the center of the room and you point at my ass--
I want my body language to say that I'm having fun
and that you're my sister. - It doesn't.
- So, in the future... - Law Roach is here!
If you don't want-- [all scream]
[screaming continues]
- Let me get closer. Hold on. - Okay.
Let us all get closer.
Oh, my God, I'm getting my wish.
I'm meeting Law Roach.
[laughing]
- Y'all are pretty. - Aah!
- Oh, stop it. - No, I'm serious,
because I was expecting, like, you know, a little--
[laughter]
She was expecting before the all-stars lips come in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - You keep it real.
Yeah. I come from a place of tough love, right?
- Yeah. - I have a question.
Sure, baby.
Can you--for us who didn't get to hear it...
- Sure. - Do it on me first.
You know what I mean? Do the honours.
She's been dying to get critiqued by you.
Yeah, yeah.
She's the walker out of the group.
She gonna clock me for the belt.
Yeah.
I'm gonna clock you for the belt.
I'm gonna clock you for the safety pin I can see.
- Aah! - I knew it! I was like, damn!
But you know what saved you?
Your doll saved you,
because your doll was so identical,
and it actually made your look look cute.
- Ah! - Yeah.
- Thank you. - Yeah.
I'm next. I mean, I'm not a seamstress.
This is hodgepodge, like...
From when you came out,
I was like, oh, okay, I get this girl.
She's a very Miami... - That's it!
Slightly ratchet. You know what I mean?
"Slightly"?
[laughter]
So your drag told me
right away when you hit the stage who you were,
and that's what it is.
I respect the bitch that knows who she is.
My turn, please.
Yeah, I think you look sickening.
Thank you.
Like, for me, you are giving me a real woman.
Like, I wanted to critique you.
I don't love the fabric. - Mm-hmm.
But I do love the way that you styled it
and you put the accessories and even your demeanour.
What's been your favourite part
about this whole experience?
I've been watching this--
Ooh, Ru took a long time to call me.
I been watching-- [laughter]
I've been watching this show since she was blurry
on season one. [laughter]
And so, finally, I got a chance to be here
and see it in person and be a part of her legacy
and your legacy as well.
Ru--I think she's such a special person,
and the way she's changed
the way that the world looks at you girls--
because I'm old enough to know and to remember
when girls didn't go out in the daytime.
And now you have-- - The brunches.
The brunches, DragCon.
And you always out, and you always done,
and you giving people hope
that anything is fucking possible.
So, when I got here, my eyes kept watering.
I'm just like, oh, I can't believe I'm finally here.
The one thing that's so important about Ru
is that her message of love has never changed.
No.
She's been preaching the same thing for 40 years.
- If from the core. - That's who she is.
That's her spirit, and I'm not an emotional girl at all,
but when I got here, I was just like, shit,
I'm looking at somebody who really changed the world.
- Yes. - Yeah.
Especially now with, like, everything
going on with, like, the drag bans...
Drag bans, yeah.
We're honoured to be judged by you.
You know what the fuck you're saying.
You know what the fuck you're doing.
And it's an honour to just be in your presence.
Thank you. Me being who I am in fashion,
I would be doing you girls a disservice to come
and not give you the good, the bad, and little tips, right?
Like, when we talked about-- - I'm throwing it away.
[laughter]
- Good choice. - Damn, bitch. Hold on.
Everybody knows I'm a shady queen.
Sorry, queens.
I got to take Law back to the main stage.
[all shouting] - This was such a pleasure.
- Five minutes. - Such a pleasure.
[all shouting indistinctly]
And, you know, on that note, Miss Plane,
just to wrap things up,
Plane, I do not take your question
as something offensive.
And as my sister, I know where you're coming from,
and I know you, and I trust you, and I believe you.
I love you. - I hate you.
Okay. [laughter]
I love how you say the nastiest shit to someone
and say, just kidding, I love you.
- Of course. - I do it, too.
I'm going to listen to a track.
- And on that note... - Anyways...
