Get it all the way off, queen.
-What? -Oh, yeah.

MAKAYLA: [Gasping] Oh my god!
Hey, dad!
MAKAYLA: Uma out of drag, my nipples went...
SFX: [Boing] [Laughing] They did.
MAKAYLA: You're my white man dream. [Laughing]
UMA: I'm already taken, but... MAKAYLA: Me too.
-It can be a- -Sharing is caring.
MAKAYLA: There you go. TARA: You're beautiful.
UMA: Oh my gosh, thank you.
UMA: What? What's happening?
Do I need to move to Toronto? Am I like a Toronto 10?
Listen, I don't know what's in the water.
HELENA: Is Uma trade of the season?
MINHI: I didn't see it. Uma out of drag...
kind of looks like Mr. Potato Head and
Kasha Davis had a baby.
[Laughing]
Oh my god, look at my, my three trans babies.
SANJINA: Ah!
MAKAYLA: I love you guys. JAYLENE: I love you too.
JAYLENE: For me to be able to be here and to
have this opportunity on Canada's Drag Race,
it truly is a dream come true.
I've applied every season.
JAYLENE: When I saw the Girlfriend Experience and
when I saw Kitten, I was like okay, trans people,
okay, there's, there's generations of drag,
I'm like I put my quarter back in that machine and,
you know, here I am.
JAYLENE: The fact that I'm here,
it's iconic because I think about what my presence means
to not only myself, but also a lot of young,
two-spirit people that are looking
to see where they fit in the world.
HELENA: Everyone really, really brought it today.
UMA: I really wish that not so many people had.
[Laughing] HELENA: Right?
SANJINA: Honestly, I'm not gonna lie to you.
I felt like I delivered.
I popped the motherfucking fuck off,
but thing is when I popped off,
everything else popped with me.
My fucking hair was running to Scarborough.
Go off, queen. I sure motherfucking did.
PERLA: I'm actually like really gagged after like
listening to everyone's verses.
When I was fucking writing that thing,
I was like oh yeah, I think I know what I'm doing.
I didn't do that bad.
Heard everyone else's, and I was like oh, fuck.
PERLA: What I was able to put together for a verse...
was a verse.
But, I am in a competition with a lot of talented
rappers and singers,
and I didn't expect that.
I'm scared. [Laughing]
SFX: [Roaring engine]
-Ah! -Hello, hello, hello!
MINHI: It's elimination day.
[Laughing] Woo!
MINHI: It's our first elimination...
and I have a funny feeling in my tummy,
and I don't know if that's gas or excitement.
VIRGO: This is a really strong cast.
I think that this is probably one of the
strongest casts I've seen.
TARA: Obviously, there's gonna be people that land
in the bottom, there'll be people in the top,
but I think collectively, as a group,
we did really, really well.
HELENA: Truly.
MINHI: I think like that's what's hard is that like
everyone did well, so then who's thorny?
-Exactly! -Exactly.
SANJINA: Nobody's been answering that.
MINHI: Who's Thornisha? SANJINA: I've been asking that.
XANA: Frankly, Miss Ma'am,
I feel like you got a thorn for your entrance.
I think our good sister, Sanjina,
might be in trouble.
Her look wasn't...
good.
XANA: Yes, it represented you but was it your best drag?
SANJINA: Yeah, that's my entrance.
That's who I am, that's truly my aesthetic, right?
It's Bollyhood.
SANJINA: Xana do, Xana don't.
Xana better not motherfucking try me, bitch.
She needs to stay in her motherfucking lane.
I think I came true to...
who I am, so yeah.
XANA: Yeah. SANJINA: Yeah.
XANA: That's, that's fierce for you.
SANJINA: Girl, like shut up.
There's only one plain Jane...
And that's not you, girl.
MAKAYLA: Well, on that note.
It's time to get that rosebud...
-Or...that thorn. -What?

HELENA: Two chances have passed us by to get a rose

My runway is like game over.
HELENA: I'm so excited to get ready with other people.

HELENA: I always get ready alone.
UMA: I used to take around 2 hours.
And then I really started to think about it,

How can you spend more time...
MINHI: Than you are performing?
UMA: Exactly.

we're each only paid 37.50.
UMA: Wait, wait. What? TIFFANY: Shut the fuck up!
TARA: 37.50.
HELENA: 37...
It's the 50 cents.
What are you doing with that 50 cents?
It almost feels like a...
fuck you.
TARA: Being a seamstress and always paying for
a new look every single weekend,
I don't always see the payoff,
but the thing is that I love drag so fucking much.
XANA: The payoff is here, bitch.
TARA: Exactly! You're here.
XANA: My rate for my performers is like flat out
$200, no matter what gig, where it is.
TARA: What?
I don't think that Newfoundland bar is owned by
a drag performer. They don't know what you're going through.
TARA: No, it's a straight man.
XANA: I know what you're going through.
I'm gonna pay you for what you're worth.
Drag is so magical.
We fill bars, we sell alcohol.
We are entertainment. We're promoters.
We're doing all of these things.
To get paid $30 to do
all of that work to fill your space and
make you money tells us that you don't care about us.
Do better.

Makayla and like Jaylene, I felt so ugly.
It's just I realized yesterday that it was one of
my weaknesses that I was just going through.
I don't know, it's just really been fucking me up.
TARA: You are beautiful. SANJINA: Thank you.
Like there's no one way of being trans, you know.
All three of us here, we're all different.
You don't need to look like me
to be trans.
You don't need to look like another trans girl
just to feel your cunt.
JAYLENE: You know, I have to say too,

MAKAYLA: Yeah, yeah. JAYLENE: We're being seen.
MAKAYLA: We're taking over. JAYLENE: We're being seen.

if it didn't include the trans women.
It took me a long time to get to the space to

It's now time for the judges' critiques.
First up, Jaylene Tyme.
JAYLENE: Hi, Brooke.
BROOKE LYNN: Right in the nick of time, here you are.
It's so wonderful to have you here and
what a great start to the competition for you.
Your entrance look was beautiful.
It was a wonderful combination of all those
things that kind of encompass you and your drag.
BRAD: The second you walked into the werkroom,
I was like, damn, so well put together,
but there was also a very...
personal, really important message behind it as well.
JAYLENE: I think it's really important for myself as
an Indigenous, two-spirit, transgender human being
to really rise up and bring along my culture,
and also remember the missing murdered Indigenous women,
two-spirits and girls that we've lost.
And for myself, I'm a 60s Scoop adoptee,
so I'm in a reconciliation, a personal one for myself.
TRACI: The way you combined both your cultural identity
and who you are as a performer,
it was powerful and it was glamourous.
LU KALA: I loved your video.
Your video shared that 70s realness.
I loved your song as well.
It was different than everybody else's song.
Everybody else more so rapped, but you sang.
BROOKE LYNN: And on the runway tonight,
you look absolutely sensational.
JAYLENE: Oh, thank you. It's my pretty girl era.
[Laughing]
BROOKE LYNN: Next up, Tara Nova.
Good day, b'y.
TARA: [Laughing] What are y'at?
[Laughing]
BRAD: I have to say I think your makeup is beautiful.
The entrance makeup, stunning.
Right now, just sensational.
TARA: 10 years, baby, 10 years of makeup.
BRAD: Well, it shows, it's beautiful.
Your entrance look, for me, was a little...
messy.
There were just so many parts happening
for such a small dress, so it was a little
hard for me to kind of go like, oh, that's who she is.
BROOKE LYNN: You have such a wonderful,
easy, fun energy about you.
But to me, the drag I've seen so far
has looked a little bit hodgepodge-y.
That's kind of what I got with the entrance look.
It looked like something you would wear after
your number to walk around the bar,
not to walk into the main stage of
Canada's Drag Race with.
BRAD: I thought your music video was good.
It was also my favourite look of your three.
TRACI: I saw pop star potential.
All the ingredients were there.
I just would have liked to have seen it baked longer.
LU KALA: I think sometimes when you're filming a
music video, you're trying to focus on like,
do I know the words and what am I wearing,
am I comfortable?
So sometimes it takes a little bit away
from who you are.
You see this face card right here?
I really wish I saw a little more of that in the video.
TARA: Thank you.
BROOKE LYNN: Next up, Makayla Couture.
MAKAYLA: Hi.
BROOKE LYNN: Well, the prom queen is all grown up.
BRAD: It's so great to have you back.
MAKAYLA: With titties. [Laughing]
BRAD: Congratulations. MAKAYLA: Thank you.
TRACI: Your music video, oh, ate.
Capital A-T-E.
Ate it up. You fed the children.
BRAD: It was like watching a pop star.
The part about gasp, gasp, gasp, asthma,
that's like Nicki Minaj stuff.
LU KALA: You are such a diva.
You are such a star.
I'm obsessed.
I'm sorry, I want the song right now.
I want the song right now because the way you ate
down on that song, you're in a league of your own.
MAKAYLA: Thank you, baby.
TRACI: This look, as somebody who's seen way too many
Diana Ross concerts, you are embodying every diva
that we've idolized over the years.
BROOKE LYNN: Yellow is absolutely your colour,
and you know how to work a stage.
So, keep up the good work.
MAKAYLA: Thank you.
BROOKE LYNN: Next up, the Virgo Queen.
VIRGO: Hey, girl, hey.
BROOKE LYNN: You may be an earth sign,
but tonight you are straight fire.
TRACI: So I was the Virgo Queen before you entered.
[Laughing]
BRAD: This look is just, for me, drag dreams.
It's sequins, it's feathers.
It's an interesting silhouette.
I LOVE the hair.
And your presentation was to die for.
I love that you are able to bring in a sense of humour
and fun into all of this beautiful package.
TRACI: From the time you hit us with your entrance look,
giving us all kinds of Y2K princess,
you're really shining and showing us
different sides of you.
BROOKE LYNN: I loved your verse.
You were so dynamic.
LU KALA: I love that you switched up your flow.
You went from like singing a little bit to rapping.
BROOKE LYNN: You're right at home on stage.
You were just having a good time and
we're having a good time with you.
VIRGO: Thank you so much.
BROOKE LYNN: Next up, Perla.
PERLA: Sup?
For your verse, you had some really good lines.
PERLA: You don't have to say it was good.
BRAD: I'm about to switch, don't worry.
PERLA: Beautiful, I'm ready.
BRAD: You had some good lines,
but you didn't bring them to life.
It fell flat for me.
TRACI: You said, "whip my hair while I cash my cheque."
PERLA: And it was a... TRACI: Yeah!
I personally was a massive fan of the cowboy glam,
but I felt like some of your personality was missing.
TRACI: Let's talk your entrance look.
As soon as I saw you, I said,
"Oh, yeah, she a fashion queen."
And I like this look also because it is serving a
different colour story than the first two looks.
BRAD: Is this an homage to Alexander McQueen?
PERLA: This is, but then mixing a little bit of that
Richard Quinn kind of vibe, minus the Latex
'cause I would like to breathe.
BRAD: Well, it all works. It looks great on you.
PERLA: Thank you.
BROOKE LYNN: I think it's really interesting that
we're getting more personality from you
right now than we have in the last three rounds.
I feel like I'm getting to know you as a person,
but I want to get to know you through your drag as well.
This is the place, and this is the time,
so let it all hang out.
BROOKE LYNN: Tiffany Ann Co.
I thought your entrance look was so cute.
It was the perfect introduction to you.
I kind of got who you were immediately.
TRACI: Your music video, I mean, it's Tiffany, bitch.
I didn't come to play.
And I felt like it had that energy
when I was watching you perform.
LU KALA: I really liked your song.
And the flow and the lyrics I thought were good.
Are you trying to give me a run for my money?
Like what's going on right now?
I've been walking around backstage, going,
"Who the fuck is this gorgeous whore?"
TIFFANY: It's Tiffany, bitch.
BROOKE LYNN: Like, it's very memorable.
The whole pop princess thing suits you really, really well.
I think the problem is this look gives me
pop princess onstage, not pop princess best drag.
I could have seen you wear this in the music video,
not here on the main stage.
BRAD: This is your opportunity to show us,
and also show the audience, who they're dealing with,
and right now, we're dealing with a lot of bodysuits.

I honestly think I needed this.
I need to not be afraid
to show what's behind the curtain.
TIFFANY: Honestly, like I didn't fully agree
that I should be in the bottom,
but I also understand, because I think,
looking around when I saw everyone getting ready,
I was like...
"Fuck!"
Overall, the judges had very good critiques about me.
The only thing, which I knew was gonna bite me in the ass
a little bit, was that it was another bodysuit.
TARA: I think that after my critiques, like...
I'm sorry, guys, I don't mean to be that girl.
I really don't.
I am feeling so defeated right now
because this is my art.
I made these things that are on my body.
To hear that something that I worked so hard for
and on is hodgepodge, that...
just struck a chord.
In Newfoundland, we have no other choice
but to work with what we have.
In order to feed myself, maybe some of my stuff
may be a little bit crafty,
but I can tell you that I put
so much heart into that.
For a long time, I just have never been able to
feel adequate in my life in anything that I've done,
and coming from a rural community and
these places where I was constantly...
ridiculed for being the only queer person there,
and then finally, I'm on a queer show
where I can showcase what I can do
and the talents that I do have,
that I was made fun of for in the past...
but I guess it's still not good enough.
MAKAYLA: You are enough. TARA: Thank you.
-You are enough. -You're fucking here.
-Yeah, girl. -Exactly.
PERLA: That part. TARA: Am I Nearah Nuff?
No! [Laughing]
