Episode

For the episode's mini-challenge, the contestants "read" (playfully insult) each other. Gottmik wins the mini-challenge.

For the main challenge, the contestants team up and improvise in the new night-time talk show Bossy Rossy After Dark. Following are the segments and team members:

"I'm Pregnant with My Imaginary Boyfriend's Baby!" – Denali, LaLa Ri, and Rosé
"Breaking My Silence: Escape from the Cult of Mime-ology!" – Gottmik, Olivia Lux, and Utica Queen
"Former Teen Queens: Where Are They Now?" – Kandy Muse and Symone
"My Best Friend's 600 Pound Ass Is Killing our Friendship!" – Elliott with 2 Ts and Tina Burner

In the Werk Room, Symone talks about her brother's imprisonment and its impact on her. Elliott with 2 Ts shares with Tina Burner about a longtime struggle with depression. Other contestants talk about famous talk shows, with some of them portraying a scene from Maury.

On the main stage, RuPaul welcomes judges Michelle Visage and Ross Mathews, as well as guest judge Ts Madison. On the runway, the category is "Bead It". Denali's outfit resembles a chandelier. LaLa Ri's dress has the colors of Mardi Gras (gold, green, and purpl). Gottmik's dress is 1960s mod-inspired and has a headpiece resembling anal beads. Utica Queen wears a wedding dress, and Kandy Muse has a large hat. Symone's look is inspired by African warriors. Tina Burner also wears a Mardi Gras-inspired outfit, and Elliott with 2 Ts presents a flapper made from Mardi Gras throws.

Kandy Muse, Olivia Lux. and Symone receive positive critiques, and Olivia Lux wins the challenge. Elliott with 2 Ts, LaLa Ri, and Utica Queen receive negative critiques, and Utica Queen is deemed safe. Elliott with 2 Ts and LaLa Ri face off in a lip-sync to "Whole Lotta Woman" by Kelly Clarkson. LaLa Ri is eliminated from the competition.
