26
00:00:41,767 --> 00:00:43,533
Willam, it has come to my

27
00:00:43,533 --> 00:00:45,267

There's nothing more punk rock

93

than being kicked off.

94
00:02:48,067 --> 00:02:49,267
>> No, bitch, no, no, no.

95
00:02:49,267 --> 00:02:50,133
Not off "RuPaul's Drag Race,"

96
00:02:50,133 --> 00:02:51,067

97
00:02:51,067 --> 00:02:51,900
That was the walk of shame,

98
00:02:51,900 --> 00:02:52,767

For once in my life, I'm

104
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:58,833
speechless.

105
00:02:58,900 --> 00:02:59,900
No one's ever been kicked off in

I'm gagged.

109
00:03:03,733 --> 00:03:04,933
>> When RuPaul came out, it

110
00:03:04,933 --> 00:03:05,967
was like this.

111
00:03:05,967 --> 00:03:06,733
>> Hold on, hold on, we can do

112
00:03:06,733 --> 00:03:07,533
this.

113
00:03:07,533 --> 00:03:08,500
I'll be Willam, you be Ru.

114
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:09,533
All right, I'll be Willam.

115
00:03:09,533 --> 00:03:11,400
>> Ha ha!

116
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,300

136
00:03:40,067 --> 00:03:41,500
According to a recent stripper

138
00:03:43,700 --> 00:03:46,300
superstar needs to pull herself

139
00:03:46,300 --> 00:03:50,067
up by her bra straps, stand tall

140
00:03:50,067 --> 00:03:51,733
in her platforms, and be the

life of every party 'cause,

142
00:03:54,267 --> 00:03:56,933

00:03:57,867 --> 00:03:58,767

00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:30,767
>> Jiggly, quit complaining over

193
00:05:30,767 --> 00:05:32,367
there.

194
00:05:32,367 --> 00:05:33,300
>> CHAD: Needles?

195
00:05:33,300 --> 00:05:33,967
>> What?

196
00:05:33,967 --> 00:05:34,767
>> What are you doing?

197
00:05:34,767 --> 00:05:35,567
>> What the fuck does it look

198
00:05:35,567 --> 00:05:36,400
like I'm doing?

199
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,233
>> CHAD: I'm pulling for you.

200
00:05:37,233 --> 00:05:38,333
>> Oh, fine.

201
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:39,800
I had all the accessories I

202
00:05:39,867 --> 00:05:41,300
needed to convey the plight of

203
00:05:41,300 --> 00:05:43,133
the American Indian, though I

204
00:05:43,133 --> 00:05:45,067
wish I had some poker chips.

205
00:05:45,067 --> 00:05:48,633
>> Ow!

206
00:05:48,633 --> 00:05:52,133
>> All right, ladies, time's up.

207
00:05:52,133 --> 00:05:55,133
Let's see your platforms.

208
00:05:55,133 --> 00:05:57,300
First up, Dida Ritz.

209
00:05:57,300 --> 00:05:58,333
>> DIDA: I was inspired by the

210
00:05:58,333 --> 00:06:00,533
Victorian age, so I took from

211
00:06:00,533 --> 00:06:02,067
Marie Antoinette, and she's a

212
00:06:02,067 --> 00:06:04,067
big woman on shopping and shoes,

213
00:06:04,067 --> 00:06:04,900
and she'd want a pair of shoes

214
00:06:04,900 --> 00:06:06,200
like this.

215
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,133
>> RUPAUL: Sort of if Marie

216
00:06:07,133 --> 00:06:09,200
Antoinette were a stripper.

217
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,167
>> She would wear these.

218
00:06:10,167 --> 00:06:12,333
I know she would.

219
00:06:12,333 --> 00:06:14,633
>> Latrice Royale.

220
00:06:14,633 --> 00:06:17,400
Absolut Punch platforms.

221
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,400
>> LATRICE: Well, my shoes are

222
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:20,467
inspired by the nightclub

223
00:06:20,467 --> 00:06:21,467
because that's where everybody's

224
00:06:21,467 --> 00:06:22,300
getting their party on and their

225
00:06:22,300 --> 00:06:24,067
drink on, and you might see a

226
00:06:24,067 --> 00:06:26,233
girl hanging from the ceiling

227
00:06:26,233 --> 00:06:27,267
wearing these shoes.

228
00:06:27,267 --> 00:06:29,533
>> Oh.

229
00:06:29,533 --> 00:06:31,967
Next up, Phi Phi O'Hara,

230
00:06:31,967 --> 00:06:34,900
Absolut Grapevine platforms.

231
00:06:34,900 --> 00:06:35,700
>> You know I'm designing for

232
00:06:35,700 --> 00:06:36,867
your new Iron Fist line.

233
00:06:36,867 --> 00:06:38,067
>> Oh, wonderful.

234
00:06:38,067 --> 00:06:38,933
>> Yeah, I really wanted to take

235
00:06:38,933 --> 00:06:40,567
it to, like, an exotic vacation

236
00:06:40,567 --> 00:06:41,667
hot spot,

237
00:06:41,667 --> 00:06:42,600
like for all those women

238
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:43,567
that are at home, they can just

239
00:06:43,567 --> 00:06:44,833
put on their shoes and have a

240
00:06:44,833 --> 00:06:46,433
cocktail and bam, they're on

241
00:06:46,433 --> 00:06:47,233
vacation.

242
00:06:47,233 --> 00:06:48,400
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

243
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:49,467
All right, next up, Sharon

244
00:06:49,467 --> 00:06:50,733
Needles.

245
00:06:50,733 --> 00:06:51,900
>> SHARON: My Berri Sour

246
00:06:51,900 --> 00:06:54,433
platforms are inspired by red

247
00:06:54,433 --> 00:06:56,267
rocks of the southwestern

248
00:06:56,267 --> 00:06:58,133
America, and I'm serving you

249
00:06:58,133 --> 00:07:00,167
some Navajo realness, and we

250
00:07:00,167 --> 00:07:01,833
have these dream catchers in the

251
00:07:01,833 --> 00:07:02,833
back.

252
00:07:02,833 --> 00:07:05,067
I prefer nightmare catchers.

253
00:07:05,067 --> 00:07:06,233
Do you see the trick?

254
00:07:06,233 --> 00:07:07,433
>> These are platform shoes for

255
00:07:07,433 --> 00:07:09,067
the real Navajo.

256
00:07:09,067 --> 00:07:10,700
>> Ha ha!

257
00:07:10,700 --> 00:07:11,600
>> PHI PHI: I thought we were

258
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:12,567
supposed to design a shoe and

259
00:07:12,567 --> 00:07:14,633
not just slab on a piece of fur.

260
00:07:14,633 --> 00:07:16,067
>> Chad Michaels.

261
00:07:16,067 --> 00:07:17,200
>> CHAD: This is for the girl on

262
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,333
the go on New Year's eve to

263
00:07:18,333 --> 00:07:19,367
wear, and she's got her

264
00:07:19,367 --> 00:07:21,700
greyhound in the foot to go.

265
00:07:21,700 --> 00:07:22,633
>> On, now what makes that

266
00:07:22,633 --> 00:07:24,067
greyhound in the foot?

267
00:07:24,067 --> 00:07:24,733
>> CHAD: That's grapefruit

268
00:07:24,733 --> 00:07:25,733
juice.

269
00:07:25,733 --> 00:07:26,700
>> RUPAUL: Of course.

270
00:07:26,700 --> 00:07:27,700
>> CHAD: Absolutely.

271
00:07:27,700 --> 00:07:28,567
You need a little vitamin C.

272
00:07:28,567 --> 00:07:29,667
You don't want scurvy, you know.

273
00:07:29,667 --> 00:07:31,167
>> RUPAUL: No, no, not again.

274
00:07:31,167 --> 00:07:32,067
I'll never go through that

275
00:07:32,067 --> 00:07:33,600
again.

276
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,967
Ladies, you all stepped it up,

277
00:07:36,967 --> 00:07:39,567
but one of you really walked all

278
00:07:39,567 --> 00:07:41,500
over the competition.

279
00:07:41,500 --> 00:07:42,633
The winner of today's

280
00:07:42,633 --> 00:07:47,700
mini-challenge is...

281
00:07:47,700 --> 00:07:49,333
Phi Phi O'Hara.

282
00:07:49,333 --> 00:07:52,567
>> Yeah! Hot dog!

283
00:07:52,567 --> 00:07:53,533
>> RUPAUL: Condragulations,

284
00:07:53,533 --> 00:07:54,633
Phi Phi.

285
00:07:54,633 --> 00:07:56,767
I am head over heels for those

286
00:07:56,767 --> 00:07:58,933
shoes right there.

287
00:07:58,933 --> 00:08:00,733
And thank you, Jeffrey Moran.

288
00:08:00,733 --> 00:08:01,933
>> Anytime.

289
00:08:01,933 --> 00:08:03,100
>> We will see you tomorrow on

290
00:08:03,100 --> 00:08:03,800
the main stage.

291
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:04,767
>> Look forward to it.

292
00:08:04,767 --> 00:08:05,700
Good luck.

293
00:08:05,700 --> 00:08:06,567
>> Bye.

294
00:08:06,567 --> 00:08:07,700
>> Thank you.

295
00:08:07,700 --> 00:08:09,333
>> Speaking of platforms, I want

296
00:08:09,333 --> 00:08:11,133
to find out what America's next

297
00:08:11,133 --> 00:08:12,833
drag superstar

298
00:08:12,833 --> 00:08:14,700
really stands for.

299
00:08:14,700 --> 00:08:16,567
And this being an election year,

300
00:08:16,567 --> 00:08:20,667
it's time to make some herstory.

301
00:08:20,667 --> 00:08:22,933
I, RuPaul, would like to

302
00:08:22,933 --> 00:08:26,833
announce the candidacy of Phi

303
00:08:26,833 --> 00:08:29,400
Phi O'Hara, Dida Ritz, Sharon

304
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,700
Needles, Latrice Royale, and

305
00:08:32,700 --> 00:08:35,600
Chad Michaels to become the

306
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,067
first drag president of the

307
00:08:38,067 --> 00:08:41,500
United States of America.

308
00:08:41,500 --> 00:08:43,100
For this week's main challenge,

309
00:08:43,100 --> 00:08:44,800
you'll face the nation in a

310
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,400
frock the vote presidential

311
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:47,733
debate.

312
00:08:47,733 --> 00:08:49,600
This is your chance to prove

313
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,100
that you have the kind of

314
00:08:51,100 --> 00:08:53,100
charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and

315
00:08:53,100 --> 00:08:56,200
talent it takes to be the leader

316
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,367
of the free world.

317
00:08:58,367 --> 00:09:02,100
Gentlemen, start your engines.

318
00:09:02,100 --> 00:09:07,133
And may the best woman win.

319
00:09:07,133 --> 00:09:07,833
>> PHI PHI: To prepare for the

320
00:09:07,833 --> 00:09:09,100
debate, we have to do an opening

321
00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:10,600
statement, a closing statement,

322
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:11,867
we have to get in drag, we have

323
00:09:11,867 --> 00:09:12,900
to come up with slogans, so

324
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:13,933
there's a lot involved in this

325
00:09:13,933 --> 00:09:15,567
challenge.

326
00:09:18,433 --> 00:09:19,133
>> CHAD: I'm gonna get in

327
00:09:19,133 --> 00:09:20,900
trouble.

328
00:09:20,900 --> 00:09:22,233
>> Put her away.

329
00:09:22,233 --> 00:09:23,500
>> What?

330
00:09:23,500 --> 00:09:24,600
>> No way.

331
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:25,900
>> Why would I?

332
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:26,933
>> SHARON: Why would you?

333
00:09:26,933 --> 00:09:27,900
>> I'm bringing back the fun to

334
00:09:27,900 --> 00:09:31,067
America, honey.

335
00:09:31,067 --> 00:09:31,900
I decided to do a

336
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:33,300
non-traditional character and do

337
00:09:33,300 --> 00:09:35,267
something a little bit edgier, a

338
00:09:35,267 --> 00:09:36,767
little bit more dangerous, take

339
00:09:36,767 --> 00:09:37,933
a risk.

340
00:09:37,933 --> 00:09:39,867
How are you doing?

341
00:09:39,867 --> 00:09:40,967
>> PHI PHI: Two pink afros on a

342
00:09:40,967 --> 00:09:42,067
brown wig.

343
00:09:42,067 --> 00:09:42,933
For him to pull that piece of

344
00:09:42,933 --> 00:09:44,067
crap out and put it on his head,

345
00:09:44,067 --> 00:09:45,200
like, for a presidential

346
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,400
debate...

347
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,567
>> I'm gonna give you Lady Pimp.

348
00:09:49,633 --> 00:09:50,900
>> RUPAUL: Coming up, what's

349
00:09:50,900 --> 00:09:51,900
your slogan?

350
00:09:51,900 --> 00:09:52,767
>> You can always kiki with your

351
00:09:52,767 --> 00:09:53,900
girl Phi Phi.

352
00:09:53,900 --> 00:09:55,067
>> You're offering to have sex

353
00:09:55,067 --> 00:09:57,100
with all Americans?

354
00:09:57,100 --> 00:09:58,500
>> I want to talk to the people.

355
00:09:58,500 --> 00:09:59,367
>> But everybody says that 'til

356
00:09:59,367 --> 00:10:00,567
they're down in the polls.

357
00:10:00,567 --> 00:10:01,433
>> Well, I enjoy being down on a

358
00:10:01,433 --> 00:10:02,567
pole.

359
00:10:02,567 --> 00:10:03,833
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

360
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,967
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

361
00:10:10,967 --> 00:10:12,767
>> For today's main challenge,

362
00:10:12,833 --> 00:10:14,867
we're running for president in

363
00:10:14,867 --> 00:10:16,133
drag.

364
00:10:16,133 --> 00:10:16,967
>> It's like we're back in

365
00:10:16,967 --> 00:10:20,200
school.

366
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,100

367
00:10:24,100 --> 00:10:25,767
So...

* Ba ba ba ba ba

369
00:10:28,100 --> 00:10:30,433
The workroom is insanely quiet

370
00:10:30,433 --> 00:10:31,667
right now, and, like, everybody

371
00:10:31,733 --> 00:10:33,100
is just thinking so hard about

372
00:10:33,100 --> 00:10:34,533
their stuff, and I'm just having

373
00:10:34,533 --> 00:10:35,867
a good time.

374
00:10:35,867 --> 00:10:40,767
[burping]

375
00:10:40,767 --> 00:10:42,767
Whew.

376
00:10:42,767 --> 00:10:43,800
>> I'm having the worst brain

377
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,067
fart right now.

378
00:10:45,067 --> 00:10:48,333
>> PHI PHI: [burping]

379
00:10:48,333 --> 00:10:49,933
Excuse me.

380
00:10:49,933 --> 00:10:52,000
>> I'm so confused.

381
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,600
This challenge is so tough.

382
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:54,533
I'm just struggling with coming

383
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,267
up with ideas.

384
00:10:56,333 --> 00:10:58,033
Politics is not my comfort zone.

385
00:10:58,033 --> 00:11:00,300
>> I get it.

386
00:11:00,300 --> 00:11:01,600
>> PHI PHI: I'm done.

387
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:02,767
>> Work.

388
00:11:02,767 --> 00:11:05,067
>> Girl, whew.

389
00:11:05,067 --> 00:11:05,933
>> You better come for it,

390
00:11:05,933 --> 00:11:07,233
Miss Phi Phi.

391
00:11:07,233 --> 00:11:08,200
>> PHI PHI: I feel confident in

392
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:09,567
this challenge because I always

393
00:11:09,567 --> 00:11:10,667
like to argue.

394
00:11:10,667 --> 00:11:11,567
Y'all didn't take debate classes

395
00:11:11,567 --> 00:11:12,467
in school?

396
00:11:12,467 --> 00:11:13,200
>> Uh-uh.

397
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:13,867
>> PHI PHI: I did.

398
00:11:13,867 --> 00:11:14,567
I wanted to be a lawyer when I

399
00:11:14,567 --> 00:11:15,367
was younger.

400
00:11:15,367 --> 00:11:16,267
>> That's why you're so

401
00:11:16,267 --> 00:11:17,100
confrontational all the time.

402
00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:18,300
>> I just have to be right.

403
00:11:18,300 --> 00:11:19,667
>> Even when you're wrong.

404
00:11:19,667 --> 00:11:20,933
>> Bitch, I'm never wrong.

405
00:11:20,933 --> 00:11:22,067
>> You're wrong right now.

406
00:11:22,067 --> 00:11:23,733
>> Learn it.

407
00:11:23,733 --> 00:11:24,433
>> Are you writing the answers

408
00:11:24,433 --> 00:11:25,933
to your questions already?

409
00:11:25,933 --> 00:11:27,533
>> Yeah. Aren't you done?

410
00:11:27,533 --> 00:11:29,333
I mean, I took debate, like,

411
00:11:29,333 --> 00:11:30,533
seven, eight years.

412
00:11:30,533 --> 00:11:31,867
>> Ha ha!

413
00:11:31,867 --> 00:11:33,767
>> And I'm a lawyer, so hurry up

414
00:11:33,767 --> 00:11:37,233
and get it done.

415
00:11:37,233 --> 00:11:38,733
>> Hello, hello, hello.

416
00:11:38,733 --> 00:11:39,500
>> Hi, Ru.

417
00:11:39,500 --> 00:11:40,267
>> Hi, Ru.

418
00:11:40,267 --> 00:11:41,500
>> Ladies, I hope you're decent

419
00:11:41,500 --> 00:11:43,133
because we have company.

420
00:11:43,133 --> 00:11:45,667
Journalist, political pundit,

421
00:11:45,667 --> 00:11:47,167
and founder of the "It Gets

422
00:11:47,233 --> 00:11:49,700
Better Project" Dan Savage.

423
00:11:49,700 --> 00:11:52,233
>> LATRICE: Hey!

424
00:11:52,233 --> 00:11:53,133
>> PHI PHI: Author!

425
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:54,833
>> Hello, candidates.

426
00:11:54,833 --> 00:11:55,800
>> RUPAUL: Now, Dan's here to

427
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,067
help you prep for the big debate

428
00:11:58,067 --> 00:11:59,467
and serve up some political

429
00:11:59,467 --> 00:12:01,400
realness.

430
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,467
Hey, Latrice.

431
00:12:02,467 --> 00:12:03,400
>> Hey, Ru, how are you?

432
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:04,400
>> Have you come up with a

433
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:05,333
campaign slogan?

434
00:12:05,333 --> 00:12:06,467
>> LATRICE: Of course.

435
00:12:06,467 --> 00:12:07,433
"Everyone needs a piece of

436
00:12:07,433 --> 00:12:08,467
Latrice."

437
00:12:08,467 --> 00:12:09,200
>> What about "Peace With

438
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,200
Latrice"?

439
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,833
>> Oh, that's very good.

440
00:12:12,833 --> 00:12:14,333
So what is your platform?

441
00:12:14,333 --> 00:12:16,533
>> Well, I want more funding for

442
00:12:16,533 --> 00:12:18,400
HIV and AIDS patients who are on

443
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:19,467
disability.

444
00:12:19,467 --> 00:12:20,267
>> But voters right now are

445
00:12:20,267 --> 00:12:21,167
gonna ask you, ok, "If you're

446
00:12:21,167 --> 00:12:22,133
gonna make more money available

447
00:12:22,133 --> 00:12:23,067
for that, what are you gonna

448
00:12:23,067 --> 00:12:24,567
cut?"

449
00:12:24,567 --> 00:12:25,567
>> Right.

450
00:12:25,567 --> 00:12:26,500
>> Something got to go?

451
00:12:26,500 --> 00:12:27,533
>> RUPAUL: Mmm.

452
00:12:27,533 --> 00:12:28,433
>> DAN: Yeah.

453
00:12:28,433 --> 00:12:29,267
Like the wars.

454
00:12:29,267 --> 00:12:30,233
>> The war, yeah.

455
00:12:30,233 --> 00:12:31,967
Politics, for real, for real.

456
00:12:32,067 --> 00:12:33,533
This is not easy.

457
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,300
>> Now it's important that you

458
00:12:35,300 --> 00:12:36,767
get your message across and that

459
00:12:36,767 --> 00:12:37,900
you're not fake.

460
00:12:37,900 --> 00:12:38,767
It has to be direct.

461
00:12:38,767 --> 00:12:39,633
>> Right.

462
00:12:39,633 --> 00:12:40,367
>> RUPAUL: All right, Latrice,

463
00:12:40,367 --> 00:12:41,167
we're gonna let you get back to

464
00:12:41,167 --> 00:12:41,967
your campaign.

465
00:12:41,967 --> 00:12:42,900
>> Thank you.

466
00:12:42,900 --> 00:12:43,800
>> Break a lash.

467
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,333
>> I will.

468
00:12:46,333 --> 00:12:47,300
>> RUPAUL: Hi, Phi Phi.

469
00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:48,333
>> Hi, Ru.

470
00:12:48,333 --> 00:12:49,167
>> You're running for president.

471
00:12:49,167 --> 00:12:49,967
>> I am.

472
00:12:49,967 --> 00:12:51,333
>> What's your slogan?

473
00:12:51,333 --> 00:12:52,333
>> You can always kiki with your

474
00:12:52,333 --> 00:12:53,633
girl Phi Phi.

475
00:12:53,633 --> 00:12:54,567
>> You're offering to have sex

476
00:12:54,567 --> 00:12:56,200
with all Americans?

477
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,833
>> Ha ha!

478
00:12:57,833 --> 00:12:58,900
>> Not kyky.

479
00:12:58,900 --> 00:13:00,100
>> Oh, ok. I'm confused.

480
00:13:00,100 --> 00:13:01,233
>> Kiki, yeah.

481
00:13:01,233 --> 00:13:02,200
Kyky is a different story.

482
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:02,967
>> Like we got something with

483
00:13:02,967 --> 00:13:03,700
each other, so...

484
00:13:03,700 --> 00:13:04,800
>> Oh, ok.

485
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:05,767
>> It rhymes with my name, and

486
00:13:05,767 --> 00:13:06,667
it's easy to remember.

487
00:13:06,667 --> 00:13:07,567
>> But it's easy to

488
00:13:07,567 --> 00:13:09,233
misunderstand, like I did.

489
00:13:09,233 --> 00:13:10,067
So you might want to have a

490
00:13:10,067 --> 00:13:12,567
couple of alternates.

491
00:13:12,567 --> 00:13:14,067
>> So what is your platform?

492
00:13:14,067 --> 00:13:15,133
>> Make America pretty.

493
00:13:15,133 --> 00:13:16,600
You know, build warehouses, so

494
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:17,633
that way a bunch of drag queens

495
00:13:17,633 --> 00:13:18,833
can make designer human-hair

496
00:13:18,833 --> 00:13:19,733
wigs.

497
00:13:19,733 --> 00:13:20,767
>> So are you providing jobs or

498
00:13:20,767 --> 00:13:21,700
are you providing wigs?

499
00:13:21,700 --> 00:13:22,633
>> Both.

500
00:13:22,633 --> 00:13:23,533
>> Ok, so it's socialism for

501
00:13:23,533 --> 00:13:24,667
drag queens, then.

502
00:13:24,667 --> 00:13:25,367
The government will give you

503
00:13:25,367 --> 00:13:26,067
your wig.

504
00:13:26,067 --> 00:13:27,367
>> Yeah.

505
00:13:27,367 --> 00:13:28,500
I'm gonna be the drag president,

506
00:13:28,500 --> 00:13:29,833
so...

507
00:13:29,833 --> 00:13:30,600
>> RUPAUL: Listen, you have to

508
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:31,767
make it something that really

509
00:13:31,767 --> 00:13:33,533
speaks to every American, so you

510
00:13:33,533 --> 00:13:34,733
have to be really direct.

511
00:13:34,733 --> 00:13:35,567
I'm gonna let you get back to

512
00:13:35,567 --> 00:13:36,633
work, ok?

513
00:13:36,633 --> 00:13:39,567
All right, thanks, Phi Phi.

514
00:13:39,567 --> 00:13:40,967
Hi, Dida.

515
00:13:40,967 --> 00:13:41,800
>> Hi, Ru.

516
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:42,867
>> You doing your homework?

517
00:13:42,867 --> 00:13:44,133
>> I'm trying.

518
00:13:44,133 --> 00:13:45,500
>> Now, it's important to know

519
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:47,100
what you stand for.

520
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:48,067
What is your platform?

521
00:13:48,067 --> 00:13:49,300
>> My platform is really about

522
00:13:49,300 --> 00:13:50,067
for like queens are kind of

523
00:13:50,067 --> 00:13:51,067
underpaid.

524
00:13:51,067 --> 00:13:52,400
We are stars, too, and this is a

525
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,367
job, and it deserves the same

526
00:13:54,367 --> 00:13:56,233
exact respect as any normal

527
00:13:56,233 --> 00:13:57,433
performer.

528
00:13:57,433 --> 00:13:58,333
>> Why should someone who's not

529
00:13:58,333 --> 00:13:59,233
a drag queen vote for you for

530
00:13:59,233 --> 00:14:03,067
president?

531
00:14:03,067 --> 00:14:03,967
>> That I haven't come up with.

532
00:14:03,967 --> 00:14:04,867
I still have some thinking to

533
00:14:04,867 --> 00:14:05,833
do.

534
00:14:05,833 --> 00:14:06,633
>> Do you vote personally?

535
00:14:06,633 --> 00:14:07,767
>> I do, I do, I vote.

536
00:14:07,767 --> 00:14:08,900
I just--Politics is kind of

537
00:14:08,900 --> 00:14:09,833
something that's hard for me to

538
00:14:09,833 --> 00:14:11,067
discuss because it can get

539
00:14:11,067 --> 00:14:12,433
personal, it can get very ugly,

540
00:14:12,433 --> 00:14:13,533
and I hate that, so--

541
00:14:13,533 --> 00:14:14,433
>> Which is why it's important

542
00:14:14,433 --> 00:14:15,600
for us to pay attention, because

543
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,100
politicians are gonna demonize

544
00:14:17,100 --> 00:14:18,767
sexual minorities, and if they

545
00:14:18,767 --> 00:14:20,333
can count on us checking out,

546
00:14:20,333 --> 00:14:21,600
they're likelier to win and then

547
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:22,467
get into office where they can

548
00:14:22,467 --> 00:14:23,333
really do us harm.

549
00:14:23,333 --> 00:14:24,433
>> Right.

550
00:14:24,433 --> 00:14:25,100
Well, you just read me,

551
00:14:25,100 --> 00:14:27,967
so I'm not gonna lie.

552
00:14:27,967 --> 00:14:29,567
>> Just make sure that it really

553
00:14:29,567 --> 00:14:30,567
comes from the heart.

554
00:14:30,567 --> 00:14:31,400
>> Yeah.

555
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:32,467
>> Good luck.

556
00:14:32,467 --> 00:14:33,600
>> DIDA: He lit my complete

557
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:34,267
campaign on fire.

558
00:14:34,267 --> 00:14:35,333
That's what Dan Savage did.

559
00:14:35,333 --> 00:14:37,267
I feel fucked.

560
00:14:37,267 --> 00:14:38,967
>> RUPAUL: Candidate Chad

561
00:14:38,967 --> 00:14:39,833
Michaels.

562
00:14:39,833 --> 00:14:40,633
>> Hey, RuPaul.

563
00:14:40,633 --> 00:14:41,467
>> I want to hear all about the

564
00:14:41,467 --> 00:14:42,233
campaign.

565
00:14:42,233 --> 00:14:43,067
>> Well, I'm just gonna have

566
00:14:43,067 --> 00:14:43,867
some fun, Ru.

567
00:14:43,867 --> 00:14:45,267
I'm creating a crazy lady...

568
00:14:45,267 --> 00:14:46,100
>> Oh, boy.

569
00:14:46,100 --> 00:14:46,967
>> ...for my campaign, and her

570
00:14:46,967 --> 00:14:50,167
name is Lady Pimp Michaels.

571
00:14:50,167 --> 00:14:51,200
>> So what are your campaign

572
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:52,067
slogans?

573
00:14:52,067 --> 00:14:53,133
>> Well, my issues are mandatory

574
00:14:53,133 --> 00:14:54,433
rhythm and funk lessons for all

575
00:14:54,433 --> 00:14:55,700
school kids because we've really

576
00:14:55,700 --> 00:14:57,667
lost the beat in this country.

577
00:14:57,667 --> 00:14:58,433
>> Are there any real issues you

578
00:14:58,433 --> 00:14:59,700
want to inject?

579
00:14:59,700 --> 00:15:00,533
Do you have a real issue?

580
00:15:00,533 --> 00:15:01,667
>> I haven't really put any real

581
00:15:01,667 --> 00:15:03,500
issues into this.

582
00:15:03,500 --> 00:15:05,667
I want to make this fun.

583
00:15:05,667 --> 00:15:07,567
>> Make sure the constituency

584
00:15:07,567 --> 00:15:08,733
can relate to you.

585
00:15:08,733 --> 00:15:09,600
>> Got you.

586
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:10,433
>> Which is gonna be a problem

587
00:15:10,433 --> 00:15:11,367
if that's your outfit.

588
00:15:11,367 --> 00:15:12,167
>> That's a pants suit.

589
00:15:12,167 --> 00:15:13,133
What are you talking about?

590
00:15:13,133 --> 00:15:14,333
>> Ha ha!

591
00:15:14,333 --> 00:15:15,400
>> All right, thanks, Chad.

592
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:16,567
>> Bye, guys.

593
00:15:16,567 --> 00:15:18,167
>> Sharon Needles, the first

594
00:15:18,167 --> 00:15:19,767
drag president.

595
00:15:19,767 --> 00:15:21,433
What campaign slogans have you

596
00:15:21,433 --> 00:15:22,700
written?

597
00:15:22,700 --> 00:15:24,567
>> Some of my campaign slogans

598
00:15:24,567 --> 00:15:26,267
are "America, Government Needs a

599
00:15:26,267 --> 00:15:27,500
Sex Change."

600
00:15:27,500 --> 00:15:28,600
>> And what does that mean?

601
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:29,833
>> It mean, you know, that it's

602
00:15:29,833 --> 00:15:31,267
time that, you know, not just a

603
00:15:31,267 --> 00:15:32,833
man or a woman is in office, but

604
00:15:32,833 --> 00:15:34,667
a man/woman, you know, is in the

605
00:15:34,667 --> 00:15:35,867
office, someone who can play

606
00:15:35,867 --> 00:15:36,667
both fields.

607
00:15:36,667 --> 00:15:37,867
>> Yeah, are you planning any

608
00:15:37,867 --> 00:15:39,533
negative campaigning?

609
00:15:39,533 --> 00:15:41,067
>> I'm not going to create

610
00:15:41,067 --> 00:15:43,267
negative attack ad campaigns

611
00:15:43,267 --> 00:15:45,067
because I was bullied my entire

612
00:15:45,067 --> 00:15:46,133
childhood, and that's just not

613
00:15:46,133 --> 00:15:47,133
the platform I'm going to be

614
00:15:47,133 --> 00:15:48,733
working with.

615
00:15:48,733 --> 00:15:50,067
I want to talk to the people.

616
00:15:50,067 --> 00:15:51,067
>> But everybody says that 'til

617
00:15:51,067 --> 00:15:52,100
they're down in the polls.

618
00:15:52,100 --> 00:15:52,967
>> Well, I enjoy being down on a

619
00:15:52,967 --> 00:15:54,900
pole, so...

620
00:15:54,900 --> 00:15:55,800
I mean, that's just something I

621
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,067
can handle.

622
00:15:57,067 --> 00:15:58,367
>> DAN: Ok, good for you.

623
00:15:58,367 --> 00:15:59,333
>> I know you have a lot of work

624
00:15:59,333 --> 00:16:00,400
to do, so I'm gonna let you get

625
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:01,600
back to it.

626
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:02,400
See you at the debate.

627
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:03,200
>> Un-huh.

628
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:04,433
>> RUPAUL: All right.

629
00:16:04,433 --> 00:16:06,767
All right, ladies, remember,

630
00:16:06,767 --> 00:16:09,067
these are tough times, and the

631
00:16:09,067 --> 00:16:11,167
future of this great nation

632
00:16:11,167 --> 00:16:12,967
depends on you.

633
00:16:12,967 --> 00:16:14,867
So don't fuck it up.

634
00:16:14,867 --> 00:16:17,200
Let's go.

635
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,400
Coming up...

636
00:16:18,467 --> 00:16:19,733
>> How you doing?

637
00:16:19,733 --> 00:16:20,733
>> Your time is up, Miss

638
00:16:20,733 --> 00:16:21,667
Michaels.

639
00:16:21,667 --> 00:16:22,467
>> Shoes.

640
00:16:22,467 --> 00:16:23,200
>> We need to play "Spot that

641
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:24,233
Russian!"

642
00:16:24,233 --> 00:16:26,200
>> Oh...I'm scared of her.

643
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,233
>> Dida!

644
00:16:27,233 --> 00:16:28,267
Ha ha!

645
00:16:30,767 --> 00:16:34,700
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

646
00:16:34,700 --> 00:16:36,233
Good evening and welcome to

647
00:16:36,233 --> 00:16:38,833
"Frock the Vote, 2012."

648
00:16:38,833 --> 00:16:40,633
Give us 22 minutes, and we'll

649
00:16:40,633 --> 00:16:42,133
give you an erection for the

650
00:16:42,133 --> 00:16:43,733
election.

651
00:16:43,733 --> 00:16:46,233
I am your moderator, RuPaul.

652
00:16:46,233 --> 00:16:47,800
And I'm here with my esteemed

653
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,567
colleagues, Michelle Visage and

654
00:16:50,567 --> 00:16:52,533
Dan Savage.

655
00:16:52,533 --> 00:16:54,267
Welcome, candidates.

656
00:16:54,267 --> 00:16:55,733
Tonight your answers will be

657
00:16:55,733 --> 00:16:57,133
timed.

658
00:16:57,133 --> 00:16:59,133
The yellow light is a ten-second

659
00:16:59,133 --> 00:17:00,567
warning.

660
00:17:00,567 --> 00:17:02,200
The red light means your time is

661
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:03,333
up.

662
00:17:03,333 --> 00:17:04,800
If you go over, the Secret

663
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,833
Service is here to escort you

664
00:17:06,833 --> 00:17:08,967
from the building.

665
00:17:08,967 --> 00:17:10,067
Let's kick things off with

666
00:17:10,067 --> 00:17:12,133
opening statements.

667
00:17:12,133 --> 00:17:13,500
Chad Michaels.

668
00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:14,433
>> Good evening, ladies

669
00:17:14,433 --> 00:17:15,333
and gentlemen.

670
00:17:15,333 --> 00:17:16,500
My name is Chad "The Lady Pimp"

671
00:17:16,500 --> 00:17:17,533
Michaels, and I am from

672
00:17:17,533 --> 00:17:18,933
California, more specifically

673
00:17:18,933 --> 00:17:20,333
the Shady Acres Trailer Park on

674
00:17:20,333 --> 00:17:22,467
Doheny between Weho and Beverly

675
00:17:22,467 --> 00:17:23,500
Hills.

676
00:17:23,500 --> 00:17:24,533
You might also remember me as

677
00:17:24,533 --> 00:17:25,567
one of the first transgender

678
00:17:25,567 --> 00:17:27,133
dancers on the "Soul Train."

679
00:17:27,133 --> 00:17:28,367
How you doing?

680
00:17:28,367 --> 00:17:29,533
>> Your time is up,

681
00:17:29,533 --> 00:17:30,500
Miss Michaels.

682
00:17:30,500 --> 00:17:31,367
>> That's the red light?

683
00:17:31,367 --> 00:17:32,733
Shoes.

684
00:17:32,733 --> 00:17:35,133
>> Dida Ritz, same question.

685
00:17:35,133 --> 00:17:35,967
>> I am here, and my name is

686
00:17:35,967 --> 00:17:37,067
Dida Ritz.

687
00:17:37,067 --> 00:17:38,300
I'm here representing or running

688
00:17:38,300 --> 00:17:40,067
for Wig Party candidate, and I'm

689
00:17:40,067 --> 00:17:41,400
here to talk about the big C

690
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,567
word today--change.

691
00:17:43,567 --> 00:17:45,333
Change for the Ritz.

692
00:17:45,333 --> 00:17:47,167
>> RUPAUL: Phi Phi O'Hara.

693
00:17:47,167 --> 00:17:48,533
>> Howdy, y'all.

694
00:17:48,533 --> 00:17:50,067
I'm just a small southern girl

695
00:17:50,067 --> 00:17:51,133
from Texas.

696
00:17:51,133 --> 00:17:52,067
You can see me on the

697
00:17:52,067 --> 00:17:53,300
best-sellers list.

698
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:55,067
"Vote for Phi Phi."

699
00:17:55,067 --> 00:17:56,400
I just want everybody to know

700
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,867
that you can always kiki

701
00:17:58,867 --> 00:18:01,967
with your girl Phi Phi.

702
00:18:01,967 --> 00:18:03,267
>> Sharon Needles.

703
00:18:03,267 --> 00:18:04,167
>> Ladies and gentlemen and

704
00:18:04,167 --> 00:18:05,367
everyone in between, my name is

705
00:18:05,367 --> 00:18:06,700
Sharon Needles.

706
00:18:06,700 --> 00:18:07,867
For a long time, this government

707
00:18:07,867 --> 00:18:09,067
has been in dire need of a sex

708
00:18:09,067 --> 00:18:10,267
change, and I'm just the drag

709
00:18:10,267 --> 00:18:12,200
queen to perform that operation.

710
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:13,700
I'm Sharon Needles for sharing

711
00:18:13,700 --> 00:18:15,533
responsibility.

712
00:18:15,533 --> 00:18:16,833
>> Latrice Royale.

713
00:18:16,833 --> 00:18:17,767
>> Good evening, I'm Latrice

714
00:18:17,767 --> 00:18:19,633
Royale, large and in charge,

715
00:18:19,633 --> 00:18:20,967
chunky yet funky.

716
00:18:20,967 --> 00:18:22,267
My fellow Americans,

717
00:18:22,267 --> 00:18:24,067
everyone needs peace with

718
00:18:24,067 --> 00:18:25,400
Latrice.

719
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:26,567
>> All right, candidates, the

720
00:18:26,567 --> 00:18:28,933
first question of the evening

721
00:18:28,933 --> 00:18:30,667
from Dan Savage.

722
00:18:30,667 --> 00:18:32,067
>> Miss O'Hara, what experiences

723
00:18:32,067 --> 00:18:33,633
from your past make you the best

724
00:18:33,633 --> 00:18:35,133
candidate to be America's first

725
00:18:35,133 --> 00:18:36,700
drag president?

726
00:18:36,700 --> 00:18:38,067
>> Well, I have lots of friends

727
00:18:38,067 --> 00:18:39,467
already, like, in the government

728
00:18:39,467 --> 00:18:41,333
thing, oh, like Sarah Palin and

729
00:18:41,333 --> 00:18:42,767
like when we used to play

730
00:18:42,767 --> 00:18:44,967
"Spot That Russian" across from,

731
00:18:44,967 --> 00:18:46,567
like, my back yard, or when I

732
00:18:46,567 --> 00:18:47,800
was in Texas we used to go cow

733
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,133
tipping in drag.

734
00:18:50,133 --> 00:18:52,467
>> Oh...I'm scared for her.

735
00:18:52,467 --> 00:18:53,600
>> Yeah.

736
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:54,733
>> Miss Royale.

737
00:18:54,733 --> 00:18:55,500
>> Coming from humble

738
00:18:55,500 --> 00:18:57,567
beginnings, I was raised as a

739
00:18:57,567 --> 00:18:59,400
poor black child in Compton.

740
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:00,833
I know what hard work,

741
00:19:00,833 --> 00:19:03,967
dedication, and perseverance

742
00:19:03,967 --> 00:19:06,667
means.

743
00:19:06,667 --> 00:19:09,067
>> All right, our next question

744
00:19:09,067 --> 00:19:10,567
from Michelle Visage.

745
00:19:10,567 --> 00:19:12,067
>> Miss Michaels, as the first

746
00:19:12,067 --> 00:19:13,533
drag president, how would you

747
00:19:13,533 --> 00:19:15,333
redecorate the White House?

748
00:19:15,333 --> 00:19:16,667
>> I'm gonna paint that bitch

749
00:19:16,667 --> 00:19:17,633
pink and I'm gonna fit the

750
00:19:17,633 --> 00:19:22,700
Capitol with an up-do, up-do.

751
00:19:22,700 --> 00:19:24,067
The green light, look.

752
00:19:24,067 --> 00:19:27,533
Yellow, bam, red!

753
00:19:27,533 --> 00:19:28,800
>> Chad has this, like, master

754
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,333
pimp thing going on.

755
00:19:30,333 --> 00:19:31,300
I don't understand, like, his

756
00:19:31,300 --> 00:19:32,400
storyline.

757
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:33,233
I mean, in a debate, what is he

758
00:19:33,233 --> 00:19:35,400
debating about?

759
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,167
>> Dida Ritz.

760
00:19:37,167 --> 00:19:39,067
>> Well, first I see everything

761
00:19:39,067 --> 00:19:39,867
being Ralph Lauren.

762
00:19:39,867 --> 00:19:41,067
I'm a big fan of Ralph Lauren

763
00:19:41,067 --> 00:19:42,533
furniture, Ralph Lauren paint,

764
00:19:42,533 --> 00:19:43,933
Ralph Lauren rugs.

765
00:19:43,933 --> 00:19:45,367
The drapery--Ralph Lauren.

766
00:19:45,367 --> 00:19:47,433
>> Girl, really?

767
00:19:47,433 --> 00:19:48,433
>> I would love Ralph Lauren

768
00:19:48,433 --> 00:19:49,633
everything.

769
00:19:49,633 --> 00:19:50,900
Thank you.

770
00:19:50,900 --> 00:19:51,833
>> Miss O'Hara.

771
00:19:51,833 --> 00:19:52,667
>> Hi.

772
00:19:52,667 --> 00:19:53,500
>> If you won the Wig party

773
00:19:53,500 --> 00:19:55,500
nomination, which one of these

774
00:19:55,500 --> 00:19:56,967
queens would you choose as your

775
00:19:56,967 --> 00:19:58,933
running mate and why?

776
00:19:58,933 --> 00:20:00,133
>> Well, being in this time

777
00:20:00,133 --> 00:20:01,967
period, I think it's so great

778
00:20:01,967 --> 00:20:04,033
that the help can sit there and

779
00:20:04,033 --> 00:20:05,800
compete alongside with me, so

780
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,067
I'd definitely like to say my

781
00:20:07,067 --> 00:20:09,400
help, Dida Ritz and the other

782
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,267
help I had, Latrice Royale.

783
00:20:13,267 --> 00:20:14,333
Ha ha!

784
00:20:14,333 --> 00:20:16,233
Yee-haw!

785
00:20:16,233 --> 00:20:17,233
>> DIDA: Did she just call me

786
00:20:17,233 --> 00:20:18,500
the help?

787
00:20:18,500 --> 00:20:20,167
I don't even do windows.

788
00:20:20,167 --> 00:20:21,033
>> LATRICE: I'm from Compton,

789
00:20:21,033 --> 00:20:21,933
bitch.

790
00:20:21,933 --> 00:20:24,033
I'll whup your ass.

791
00:20:24,033 --> 00:20:25,533
>> DAN: Miss Ritz, should drag

792
00:20:25,533 --> 00:20:27,867
queens be allowed to marry?

793
00:20:27,867 --> 00:20:29,000
>> I truly believe drag queens

794
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,033
should be allowed to get married

795
00:20:30,033 --> 00:20:31,000
whether a drag queen wants to

796
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,533
marry a drag queen or a drag

797
00:20:32,533 --> 00:20:36,167
queen wants to marry a dog.

798
00:20:36,167 --> 00:20:38,700
Change for the Ritz.

799
00:20:38,700 --> 00:20:40,000
>> Sharon Needles.

800
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,033
>> Drag queens should most

801
00:20:41,033 --> 00:20:42,067
definitely be able to get

802
00:20:42,067 --> 00:20:43,033
married.

803
00:20:43,033 --> 00:20:43,933
They should also have the right

804
00:20:43,933 --> 00:20:45,900
to get divorced.

805
00:20:45,900 --> 00:20:47,200
I, too, would like to be an

806
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,333
unhappy married woman and then

807
00:20:49,333 --> 00:20:51,700
receive my alimony checks to

808
00:20:51,700 --> 00:20:53,200
pay for my young lovers and

809
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,267
vacations.

810
00:20:54,267 --> 00:20:56,100
Thank you, Dan.

811
00:20:56,100 --> 00:20:57,467
>> Miss Royale, politics can get

812
00:20:57,467 --> 00:20:58,933
so ugly.

813
00:20:58,933 --> 00:21:00,067
Can you give us an example of a

814
00:21:00,067 --> 00:21:01,967
time when you made peace with

815
00:21:01,967 --> 00:21:03,067
someone you didn't see eye to

816
00:21:03,067 --> 00:21:04,167
eye with?

817
00:21:04,167 --> 00:21:06,633
>> About five minutes ago, I

818
00:21:06,633 --> 00:21:08,967
looked across at Miss O'Hara and

819
00:21:08,967 --> 00:21:10,633
realized that she was ugly.

820
00:21:10,633 --> 00:21:11,733
>> Oh!

821
00:21:11,733 --> 00:21:13,300
>> And I'm at peace with that.

822
00:21:13,300 --> 00:21:16,967
>> [laughter]

823
00:21:16,967 --> 00:21:18,067
>> RUPAUL: All right, it's time

824
00:21:18,067 --> 00:21:19,200
to hear the candidates' closing

825
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:20,867
statements.

826
00:21:20,867 --> 00:21:22,867
Let's begin with Miss Chad

827
00:21:22,867 --> 00:21:24,333
Michaels.

828
00:21:24,333 --> 00:21:25,867
>> At the end of the day, I just

829
00:21:25,867 --> 00:21:27,333
want, you know, to put someone

830
00:21:27,333 --> 00:21:28,600
down in my chair, give them a

831
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,067
good, good scalp massage, send

832
00:21:31,067 --> 00:21:32,600
them out and make them feel like

833
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,067
an American citizen.

834
00:21:34,067 --> 00:21:36,933
Look, yellow, one more time,

835
00:21:36,933 --> 00:21:38,933
red.

836
00:21:38,933 --> 00:21:40,700
Those frigging lights.

837
00:21:40,700 --> 00:21:42,967
Yellow, red.

838
00:21:42,967 --> 00:21:44,567
>> Miss Dida Ritz.

839
00:21:44,567 --> 00:21:49,533
>> I must say that I have a lot.

840
00:21:49,533 --> 00:21:50,867
I have a lot that I want to

841
00:21:50,867 --> 00:21:51,800
change.

842
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:52,733
"Change for Ritz."

843
00:21:52,733 --> 00:21:53,867
That's my slogan.

844
00:21:53,867 --> 00:21:55,200
Thank you.

845
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,400
>> LATRICE: Dida is coming off

846
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:57,933
like her answers are very who

847
00:21:57,933 --> 00:21:59,367
cares.

848
00:21:59,367 --> 00:22:00,833
There's no passion, no fire,

849
00:22:00,833 --> 00:22:02,333
no nothing.

850
00:22:02,333 --> 00:22:03,733
>> Latrice Royale.

851
00:22:03,733 --> 00:22:05,867
>> With my plans in effect, we

852
00:22:05,867 --> 00:22:08,067
can look forward to a fun-loving

853
00:22:08,067 --> 00:22:09,833
America, and America where

854
00:22:09,833 --> 00:22:11,967
everyone can be queen for a day.

855
00:22:11,967 --> 00:22:13,900
Thank you.

856
00:22:13,900 --> 00:22:15,967
>> Candidate Sharon Needles.

857
00:22:15,967 --> 00:22:18,067
>> Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not

858
00:22:18,067 --> 00:22:21,600
an Ivy League good ol' ladyboy.

859
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,067
I'm just a girl of the streets,

860
00:22:24,067 --> 00:22:25,433
and that's where I learned the

861
00:22:25,433 --> 00:22:27,600
American people,

862
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,633
from the dark black soil of Iowa

863
00:22:30,633 --> 00:22:33,267
to the punk rockers of Colorado,

864
00:22:33,267 --> 00:22:34,233
to the hippies of Southern

865
00:22:34,233 --> 00:22:36,433
California to the blue-collar

866
00:22:36,433 --> 00:22:38,767
boys of Pittsburgh, I've walked

867
00:22:38,767 --> 00:22:40,600
in every single one of their

868
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:41,633
shoes.

869
00:22:41,633 --> 00:22:43,467
I am of the people and for the

870
00:22:43,467 --> 00:22:44,933
people.

871
00:22:44,933 --> 00:22:46,800
I'm Sharon Needles sharing

872
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,733
responsibility for a better

873
00:22:49,733 --> 00:22:51,533
world.

874
00:22:51,533 --> 00:22:52,733
>> Miss Phi Phi O'Hara.

875
00:22:52,733 --> 00:22:53,767
This evening you get the last

876
00:22:53,767 --> 00:22:55,133
word.

877
00:22:55,133 --> 00:22:56,333
>> I want to live in a world

878
00:22:56,333 --> 00:22:57,533
that--vote for Phi Phi--

879
00:22:57,533 --> 00:22:58,833
that, you know, ho's can be

880
00:22:58,833 --> 00:23:01,067
pimps finally, and--vote for Phi

881
00:23:01,067 --> 00:23:02,167
Phi--and so I just want to say

882
00:23:02,167 --> 00:23:04,067
vote for Phi Phi where, you

883
00:23:04,067 --> 00:23:06,567
know, Jesus love you, and I

884
00:23:06,567 --> 00:23:07,833
didn't have a big enough heart

885
00:23:07,833 --> 00:23:09,600
to cover you, but I just want to

886
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:13,167
say, America, don't be a drag.

887
00:23:13,167 --> 00:23:14,500
Oh, I mean, be a drag.

888
00:23:14,500 --> 00:23:15,400
Ha ha ha!

889
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,600
Howdy!

890
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:18,833
I won.

891
00:23:18,833 --> 00:23:20,333
>> I did find Phi Phi annoying

892
00:23:20,333 --> 00:23:21,567
tonight.

893
00:23:21,567 --> 00:23:23,733
You got to know when to quit.

894
00:23:23,733 --> 00:23:25,500
[inhaling loudly]

895
00:23:25,500 --> 00:23:27,100
>> Oh.

896
00:23:27,100 --> 00:23:28,833
>> Thank you, candidates.

897
00:23:28,833 --> 00:23:30,833
That concludes our Frock the

898
00:23:30,833 --> 00:23:32,367
Vote debate.

899
00:23:32,367 --> 00:23:34,133
Remember to come early on

900
00:23:34,133 --> 00:23:35,467
election day.

901
00:23:35,467 --> 00:23:37,767
Oh, and don't forget to vote.

902
00:23:37,767 --> 00:23:39,333
Good night, everybody.

903
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:43,733
Coming up.

904
00:23:43,733 --> 00:23:45,367
>> Being a black woman, I got a

905
00:23:45,367 --> 00:23:46,700
little offended.

906
00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:48,533
>> It wasn't Tina Fey hilarious.

907
00:23:48,533 --> 00:23:50,867
It was just a little mystifying.

908
00:23:50,867 --> 00:23:52,433
>> JEFFREY: You exude beauty,

909
00:23:52,433 --> 00:23:53,600
but we also want to know that

910
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,200
you're smart.

911
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:56,333
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

912
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,433
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

913
00:24:03,500 --> 00:24:04,533
>> CHAD: Walk this way.

914
00:24:04,533 --> 00:24:05,567
>> Woo!

915
00:24:05,567 --> 00:24:06,500
>> Another day, another dead

916
00:24:06,500 --> 00:24:07,900
diva, honey.

917
00:24:07,900 --> 00:24:09,100
>> Yesterday, we had our

918
00:24:09,167 --> 00:24:10,800
presidential debate, and today

919
00:24:10,867 --> 00:24:11,600
we have to get ready for the

920
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,900
inaugural ball.

921
00:24:13,900 --> 00:24:15,267
>> Don't politics seem like a

922
00:24:15,267 --> 00:24:16,300
drag queen dressing room

923
00:24:16,300 --> 00:24:17,333
nowadays?

924
00:24:17,333 --> 00:24:18,233
>> LATRICE: Basically.

925
00:24:18,233 --> 00:24:19,067
It's mud slinging.

926
00:24:19,067 --> 00:24:20,200
It's not cute.

927
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:21,400
>> I mean, I know yesterday was

928
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,067
a drag competition, but I kind

929
00:24:23,067 --> 00:24:24,500
of wish we could have used it a

930
00:24:24,500 --> 00:24:25,600
little more as a platform to

931
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:26,767
talk about things that, you

932
00:24:26,767 --> 00:24:27,800
know, we really wish we could

933
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,233
see changed.

934
00:24:30,233 --> 00:24:30,967
>> CHAD: It's always been my

935
00:24:30,967 --> 00:24:32,100
policy, especially, like, when

936
00:24:32,100 --> 00:24:33,333
I'm working at shows, you don't

937
00:24:33,333 --> 00:24:35,433
mix drag and politics.

938
00:24:35,433 --> 00:24:36,500
I'm out to entertain people and

939
00:24:36,500 --> 00:24:37,967
make them feel good and not to

940
00:24:38,067 --> 00:24:39,367
spread my political beliefs at

941
00:24:39,367 --> 00:24:40,667
the gay bar.

942
00:24:40,733 --> 00:24:42,933
>> Dan Savage, and all he does

943
00:24:42,933 --> 00:24:44,233
as an advocate and all that,

944
00:24:44,233 --> 00:24:45,200
it's great.

945
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,433
That's not me; that's Dan.

946
00:24:46,433 --> 00:24:47,933
>> We are given an opportunity

947
00:24:47,933 --> 00:24:49,533
that no other drag queen is

948
00:24:49,533 --> 00:24:51,100
given, and that's a platform to

949
00:24:51,100 --> 00:24:53,067
actually talk about things that

950
00:24:53,067 --> 00:24:54,800
we deal with every day.

951
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:55,833
When I was a kid, I didn't have

952
00:24:55,833 --> 00:24:56,933
a Dan Savage.

953
00:24:56,933 --> 00:24:57,900
>> DIDA: I felt like he trashed

954
00:24:57,900 --> 00:24:58,900
it.

955
00:24:58,900 --> 00:25:00,300
Coming in here that serious

956
00:25:00,300 --> 00:25:01,333
about something that was

957
00:25:01,333 --> 00:25:02,233
supposed to be drag-oriented and

958
00:25:02,233 --> 00:25:03,300
fun at the same time.

959
00:25:03,300 --> 00:25:04,467
Mixing views and important

960
00:25:04,467 --> 00:25:05,267
issues that are going on in the

961
00:25:05,267 --> 00:25:06,167
world...

962
00:25:06,167 --> 00:25:06,867
>> Right.

963
00:25:06,867 --> 00:25:09,200
>> Calm down.

964
00:25:09,267 --> 00:25:10,333
I'm not a really big fan of

965
00:25:10,333 --> 00:25:13,367
politics because of how ugly it

966
00:25:13,433 --> 00:25:14,367
could get.

967
00:25:14,367 --> 00:25:15,300
It doesn't take all that

968
00:25:15,300 --> 00:25:16,200
screaming and hollering to

969
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,067
change the world.

970
00:25:18,067 --> 00:25:18,767
>> Did you guys ever run for

971
00:25:18,767 --> 00:25:20,233
anything in school?

972
00:25:20,233 --> 00:25:21,633
>> LATRICE: No, I didn't.

973
00:25:21,633 --> 00:25:23,167
I ran for student council.

974
00:25:23,167 --> 00:25:24,233
>> I never did because I didn't

975
00:25:24,233 --> 00:25:25,133
want to really draw any

976
00:25:25,133 --> 00:25:26,133
attention to myself.

977
00:25:26,133 --> 00:25:27,367
I just thought that I would get,

978
00:25:27,367 --> 00:25:28,700
like, harassed more.

979
00:25:28,700 --> 00:25:29,667
>> I was the only kid in my

980
00:25:29,667 --> 00:25:31,067
school that, you know, would say

981
00:25:31,067 --> 00:25:33,067
that I was gay, so and like I

982
00:25:33,067 --> 00:25:34,100
wasn't just gay; I was, like,

983
00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:36,533
gay-weird, and I got bullied

984
00:25:36,533 --> 00:25:38,367
bad, and I never told my parents

985
00:25:38,367 --> 00:25:39,967
about it.

986
00:25:39,967 --> 00:25:40,700
>> I would always tell the

987
00:25:40,700 --> 00:25:42,067
school, and, like, they would

988
00:25:42,067 --> 00:25:43,233
all say, you know, "Ignore it,

989
00:25:43,233 --> 00:25:44,367
ignore it."

990
00:25:44,367 --> 00:25:45,300
>> SHARON: Kids bully out of

991
00:25:45,300 --> 00:25:46,767
insecurities, but teachers have

992
00:25:46,767 --> 00:25:48,600
the responsibility to stand in

993
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,067
and help kids that are getting

994
00:25:50,067 --> 00:25:51,100
it.

995
00:25:51,100 --> 00:25:52,067
I don't know how things have

996
00:25:52,133 --> 00:25:54,400
changed since I was in high

997
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,233
school, but teachers never

998
00:25:56,300 --> 00:25:58,600
really stepped up to halt

999
00:25:58,600 --> 00:25:59,767
anything.

1000
00:25:59,767 --> 00:26:01,400
Well, as self-serving as being

1001
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,200
a drag queen is, it does feel

1002
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,300
nice to know that just having

1003
00:26:04,300 --> 00:26:05,733
this exposure that we're having

1004
00:26:05,733 --> 00:26:07,633
right now, not to sound

1005
00:26:07,633 --> 00:26:09,367
cliché, but if I can just help

1006
00:26:09,367 --> 00:26:14,367
one child, just one, one child,

1007
00:26:14,367 --> 00:26:16,267
I've done my part.

1008
00:26:22,233 --> 00:26:23,967
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

1009
00:26:27,067 --> 00:26:28,667
* Cover girl

1010
00:26:28,667 --> 00:26:30,767
Put some bass in your walk

1011
00:26:30,767 --> 00:26:32,100
Head to toe

1012
00:26:32,100 --> 00:26:35,567
let your whole body talk *

1013
00:26:35,567 --> 00:26:37,633
And what?

1014
00:26:37,633 --> 00:26:38,700
Hey, guys.

1015
00:26:38,700 --> 00:26:39,400
>> SANTINO: Hey, Ru.

1016
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,333
>> Hey.

1017
00:26:40,333 --> 00:26:41,800
>> Welcome to the main stage of

1018
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,067
"RuPaul's Drag Race."

1019
00:26:44,067 --> 00:26:45,867
My commander-in-queef, Michelle

1020
00:26:45,867 --> 00:26:47,067
Visage.

1021
00:26:47,067 --> 00:26:48,633
>> Yes, we can, Palm Beach

1022
00:26:48,633 --> 00:26:49,533
princess.

1023
00:26:49,533 --> 00:26:50,700
>> Ha ha!

1024
00:26:50,700 --> 00:26:52,933
And Santino Rice, how are you?

1025
00:26:52,933 --> 00:26:54,500
>> I'm good, Ru.

1026
00:26:54,500 --> 00:26:56,067
>> And our super delegate from

1027
00:26:56,067 --> 00:26:58,067
Absolut, Jeffrey Moran.

1028
00:26:58,067 --> 00:26:59,333
>> Hello, darling.

1029
00:26:59,333 --> 00:27:00,933
>> Always good to have you here.

1030
00:27:00,933 --> 00:27:02,233
Dan Savage.

1031
00:27:02,233 --> 00:27:04,300
Now, is this election totally

1032
00:27:04,300 --> 00:27:05,733
leotarded or what?

1033
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:06,900
>> Ha! There are some total

1034
00:27:06,900 --> 00:27:07,800
leotards running in this

1035
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:08,767
election, but I think we're

1036
00:27:08,767 --> 00:27:10,100
gonna be all right.

1037
00:27:10,100 --> 00:27:11,633
>> This week our queens frocked

1038
00:27:11,633 --> 00:27:13,200
the vote in a heated

1039
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:14,933
presidential debate.

1040
00:27:14,933 --> 00:27:16,700
Tonight, they're ready to rock

1041
00:27:16,700 --> 00:27:18,733
the runway dressed for the

1042
00:27:18,733 --> 00:27:20,400
inaugural ball.

1043
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,700
Gentlemen, start your engines,

1044
00:27:22,700 --> 00:27:25,700
and may the best woman win.

1045
00:27:25,700 --> 00:27:29,267
* Welcome to the jungle

1046
00:27:29,333 --> 00:27:31,433
Phi Phi O'Hara, call her

1047
00:27:31,433 --> 00:27:33,067
Miss Ross.

1048
00:27:33,067 --> 00:27:35,867
Her ballot box is stuffed.

1049
00:27:35,867 --> 00:27:36,967
>> MICHELLE: Ha ha!

1050
00:27:36,967 --> 00:27:38,433
>> DAN: It's bedazzled is what

1051
00:27:38,433 --> 00:27:39,200
it is.

1052
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,200
>> RUPAUL: It sure is.

1053
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:40,933
>> PHI PHI: I want all eyes on

1054
00:27:40,933 --> 00:27:41,800
me.

1055
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,367
I'm serving them fresh, young

1056
00:27:43,367 --> 00:27:45,167
inn augural realness.

1057
00:27:45,167 --> 00:27:45,967
>> RUPAUL: She's got this

1058
00:27:45,967 --> 00:27:47,700
election all tied up.

1059
00:27:47,700 --> 00:27:49,300
>> SANTINO: Ha ha!

1060
00:27:49,367 --> 00:27:51,167
>> RUPAUL: Dida Ritz...

1061
00:27:51,167 --> 00:27:52,467
in all black.

1062
00:27:52,533 --> 00:27:54,100
She's courting the black vote.

1063
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:55,267
>> MICHELLE: Ha ha!

1064
00:27:55,267 --> 00:27:56,167
>> DIDA: I'm serving "Breakfast

1065
00:27:56,167 --> 00:27:58,067
at Tiffany's" realness, and I

1066
00:27:58,067 --> 00:27:59,067
feel confident.

1067
00:27:59,067 --> 00:28:00,200
I feel so beautiful, and I love

1068
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:01,933
my hair and I love the color

1069
00:28:01,933 --> 00:28:03,567
that I went with.

1070
00:28:03,567 --> 00:28:05,533
I feel like it is just right.

1071
00:28:05,533 --> 00:28:07,900
>> DAN: Frozen Morticia Addams.

1072
00:28:07,900 --> 00:28:10,267
>> Ooh, is that a weave, Dan?

1073
00:28:10,333 --> 00:28:12,067
Chad Michaels.

1074
00:28:12,067 --> 00:28:12,967
>> MICHELLE: Don't you mean Lady

1075
00:28:12,967 --> 00:28:14,233
Bird Michaels?

1076
00:28:14,300 --> 00:28:15,267
>> JEFFREY: Very Marcus

1077
00:28:15,267 --> 00:28:16,533
Bachmann...

1078
00:28:16,533 --> 00:28:17,800
in his dreams.

1079
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:19,267
>> RUPAUL: Yes, in his dreams.

1080
00:28:19,267 --> 00:28:21,467
>> CHAD: I feel like a

1081
00:28:21,467 --> 00:28:22,867
republican lady that the

1082
00:28:22,867 --> 00:28:23,767
politician can take

1083
00:28:23,767 --> 00:28:24,633
to the ball, but then

1084
00:28:24,633 --> 00:28:25,533
take her back home and she's a

1085
00:28:25,533 --> 00:28:26,900
whore in bed.

1086
00:28:26,900 --> 00:28:28,767
>> RUPAUL: Very republican lady.

1087
00:28:28,767 --> 00:28:29,900
Gorge bush.

1088
00:28:29,900 --> 00:28:31,200
>> DAN: Gorge bush, that's it.

1089
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,900
>> [laughter]

1090
00:28:33,967 --> 00:28:36,200
>> RUPAUL: Latrice Royale!

1091
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,167
Working the beltway.

1092
00:28:38,167 --> 00:28:39,733
>> MICHELLE: Hey.

1093
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,167
>> LATRICE: You ain't ever seen

1094
00:28:41,167 --> 00:28:43,067
a president look this sexy in

1095
00:28:43,067 --> 00:28:44,433
your life.

1096
00:28:44,433 --> 00:28:46,733
I am throwing it, baby.

1097
00:28:46,733 --> 00:28:49,067
I want you to see all this shape

1098
00:28:49,067 --> 00:28:51,067
in its fully glory.

1099
00:28:51,067 --> 00:28:51,967
>> RUPAUL: Now that's what I

1100
00:28:51,967 --> 00:28:53,533
call a war chest.

1101
00:28:53,533 --> 00:28:56,733
She went that-a-way.

1102
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,767
President Sharon Needles.

1103
00:28:58,767 --> 00:28:59,467
>> SANTINO: Take me to your

1104
00:28:59,467 --> 00:29:00,300
leader.

1105
00:29:00,367 --> 00:29:01,667
>> RUPAUL: Yes.

1106
00:29:01,667 --> 00:29:02,600
>> DAN: That's what the Bush

1107
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:03,433
twins wanted to wear to the

1108
00:29:03,433 --> 00:29:05,067
inaugural ball.

1109
00:29:05,067 --> 00:29:06,300
>> SHARON: I am serving

1110
00:29:06,300 --> 00:29:08,600
transparency realness with a

1111
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,733
gown made out of pantyhose and

1112
00:29:11,733 --> 00:29:14,367
hair that hits the debt ceiling.

1113
00:29:14,367 --> 00:29:15,233
>> JEFFREY: But I can see right

1114
00:29:15,233 --> 00:29:16,833
through her candidacy.

1115
00:29:16,833 --> 00:29:18,100
>> RUPAUL: Yes.

1116
00:29:18,100 --> 00:29:19,267
That dress shows off her

1117
00:29:19,267 --> 00:29:22,900
stimulus package.

1118
00:29:22,967 --> 00:29:23,900
Coming up.

1119
00:29:23,900 --> 00:29:24,800
>> SANTINO: It looks more like

1120
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,900
you're going to an awards show

1121
00:29:26,900 --> 00:29:29,167
rather than an inauguration.

1122
00:29:29,167 --> 00:29:29,967
>> MICHELLE: This is top five,

1123
00:29:29,967 --> 00:29:30,833
people.

1124
00:29:30,833 --> 00:29:31,633
>> Yep.

1125
00:29:31,633 --> 00:29:32,567
>> They shouldn't be making

1126
00:29:32,567 --> 00:29:34,067
these mistakes at this point.

1127
00:29:34,067 --> 00:29:35,367
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

1128
00:29:37,900 --> 00:29:40,167
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

1129
00:29:40,233 --> 00:29:42,300
Welcome, ladies.

1130
00:29:42,300 --> 00:29:44,967
We've all watched your debate.

1131
00:29:44,967 --> 00:29:47,067
Now it's time for some political

1132
00:29:47,067 --> 00:29:49,533
analysis from our judges.

1133
00:29:49,533 --> 00:29:52,367
Let's start with Phi Phi O'Hara.

1134
00:29:52,367 --> 00:29:53,933
Tell us about your inaugural

1135
00:29:53,933 --> 00:29:54,800
gown.

1136
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:55,533
>> Well, I decided to wear

1137
00:29:55,533 --> 00:29:56,533
white.

1138
00:29:56,533 --> 00:29:57,633
It's fun, it's elegant.

1139
00:29:57,633 --> 00:29:58,567
>> Or was it just trying to

1140
00:29:58,567 --> 00:30:01,033
court the white people?

1141
00:30:01,033 --> 00:30:02,533
>> Ha ha!

1142
00:30:02,533 --> 00:30:03,800
>> Or the help?

1143
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:04,833
>> Oh.

1144
00:30:04,833 --> 00:30:05,933
>> I think it's so great that

1145
00:30:05,933 --> 00:30:07,200
the help can sit there and

1146
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,700
compete alongside with me.

1147
00:30:10,767 --> 00:30:12,733
>> I am clearly all about

1148
00:30:12,733 --> 00:30:14,700
political incorrectness, but in

1149
00:30:14,767 --> 00:30:17,533
order to land an off-color joke,

1150
00:30:17,533 --> 00:30:19,033
it has to be funny, and that

1151
00:30:19,033 --> 00:30:22,467
joke came across as offensive.

1152
00:30:22,467 --> 00:30:24,400
And being a black woman, I got a

1153
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,067
little offended.

1154
00:30:27,067 --> 00:30:28,000
>> People shouldn't get upset.

1155
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,033
It's a joke 'cause it's not me.

1156
00:30:31,100 --> 00:30:32,433
>> I thought your conservative,

1157
00:30:32,433 --> 00:30:34,333
Palin-esque character was really

1158
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:35,867
funny, and I thought you did a

1159
00:30:35,867 --> 00:30:37,100
really great job.

1160
00:30:37,100 --> 00:30:38,067
You could have even taken it

1161
00:30:38,067 --> 00:30:39,800
further for my liking.

1162
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:40,733
>> JEFFREY: But we all have to

1163
00:30:40,733 --> 00:30:41,633
be in on the joke.

1164
00:30:41,700 --> 00:30:42,933
It's the fart in church.

1165
00:30:42,933 --> 00:30:43,767
Not everyone thinks that's

1166
00:30:43,767 --> 00:30:44,667
funny.

1167
00:30:44,667 --> 00:30:46,267
It sometimes stinks.

1168
00:30:46,267 --> 00:30:47,333
>> All right, next up, Dida

1169
00:30:47,333 --> 00:30:48,667
Ritz.

1170
00:30:48,667 --> 00:30:49,500
>> I thought you were the

1171
00:30:49,500 --> 00:30:50,767
weakest debater.

1172
00:30:50,767 --> 00:30:52,067
There was a lot of word salad

1173
00:30:52,133 --> 00:30:52,833
going on.

1174
00:30:52,833 --> 00:30:54,067
Just a bunch of words tossed up

1175
00:30:54,067 --> 00:30:55,367
in the air that wasn't Tina

1176
00:30:55,367 --> 00:30:57,333
Fey/Sarah Palin hilarious.

1177
00:30:57,333 --> 00:30:58,233
It was a just a little

1178
00:30:58,233 --> 00:30:59,500
mystifying.

1179
00:30:59,500 --> 00:31:00,300
>> Well, I tried as hard as I

1180
00:31:00,300 --> 00:31:01,200
could.

1181
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,067
But when questions were being

1182
00:31:02,067 --> 00:31:03,067
asked of me, it was just kind of

1183
00:31:03,067 --> 00:31:03,867
like a deer in headlights

1184
00:31:03,867 --> 00:31:04,767
moment.

1185
00:31:04,767 --> 00:31:05,700
It kind of makes me

1186
00:31:05,700 --> 00:31:06,433
uncomfortable, to be honest with

1187
00:31:06,433 --> 00:31:07,233
you.

1188
00:31:07,233 --> 00:31:08,067
>> It may be uncomfortable to

1189
00:31:08,067 --> 00:31:09,067
talk politics, certainly.

1190
00:31:09,067 --> 00:31:10,700
Remember, you're in the running

1191
00:31:10,700 --> 00:31:11,500
for America's next drag

1192
00:31:11,500 --> 00:31:12,467
superstar.

1193
00:31:12,467 --> 00:31:14,367
You exude beauty, but we also

1194
00:31:14,367 --> 00:31:17,067
want to know that you're smart.

1195
00:31:17,067 --> 00:31:18,400
>> Next up, Chad Michaels.

1196
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:19,100
Hi, Chad.

1197
00:31:19,100 --> 00:31:20,067
>> Hey, RuPaul.

1198
00:31:20,067 --> 00:31:21,433
>> Tell me about the debate.

1199
00:31:21,433 --> 00:31:22,400
>> This challenge was

1200
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:23,567
intimidating to me.

1201
00:31:23,567 --> 00:31:24,433
Heavy debate and politics

1202
00:31:24,433 --> 00:31:25,600
are not my forté,

1203
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:26,633
but I didn't come here

1204
00:31:26,633 --> 00:31:28,133
not to rise to the occasion, so

1205
00:31:28,133 --> 00:31:29,867
I created the Lady Pimp

1206
00:31:29,867 --> 00:31:31,067
character.

1207
00:31:31,067 --> 00:31:32,567
>> I loved you in the debate,

1208
00:31:32,567 --> 00:31:34,133
and I loved your character.

1209
00:31:34,133 --> 00:31:36,567
Every four years, there are joke

1210
00:31:36,567 --> 00:31:37,500
candidates.

1211
00:31:37,500 --> 00:31:40,300
Newt Gingrich, Michelle Bachman,

1212
00:31:40,300 --> 00:31:41,867
and you were sending those guys

1213
00:31:41,867 --> 00:31:42,900
up.

1214
00:31:42,900 --> 00:31:44,300
You were just stellar.

1215
00:31:44,300 --> 00:31:46,200
>> You're the only queen tonight

1216
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:47,400
that really looks like you're

1217
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,933
going to the inauguration.

1218
00:31:50,933 --> 00:31:52,600
>> I see Mamie Eisenhower,

1219
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:53,833
mm-hmm, up there, and it harkens

1220
00:31:53,833 --> 00:31:54,933
back to a time when the economy

1221
00:31:54,933 --> 00:31:56,200
wasn't in the fucking toilet.

1222
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:57,600
>> Ha ha!

1223
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,400
All right, let's move on to Miss

1224
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,367
Latrice Royale.

1225
00:32:01,367 --> 00:32:02,467
>> Hi, Ru.

1226
00:32:02,467 --> 00:32:03,500
>> What was your platform and

1227
00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:04,900
slogan?

1228
00:32:04,900 --> 00:32:06,733
>> My slogan was, "Every one

1229
00:32:06,733 --> 00:32:08,067
needs peace with Latrice."

1230
00:32:08,067 --> 00:32:10,433
And I had a couple of issues

1231
00:32:10,433 --> 00:32:12,667
such as medication and more

1232
00:32:12,667 --> 00:32:15,233
funding for HIV and AIDS

1233
00:32:15,233 --> 00:32:16,367
patients.

1234
00:32:16,367 --> 00:32:17,300
>> Did you say that in the

1235
00:32:17,300 --> 00:32:18,067
debate?

1236
00:32:18,067 --> 00:32:18,900
>> I didn't get a chance to

1237
00:32:18,900 --> 00:32:19,867
bring it up.

1238
00:32:19,867 --> 00:32:20,733
>> DAN: You say you didn't get a

1239
00:32:20,733 --> 00:32:21,567
chance to bring it up, and there

1240
00:32:21,567 --> 00:32:22,567
were actually several

1241
00:32:22,567 --> 00:32:23,767
opportunities where the light

1242
00:32:23,767 --> 00:32:25,167
hadn't gone off yet, so you had

1243
00:32:25,167 --> 00:32:26,600
chances but they slipped through

1244
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:27,700
your fingers somehow.

1245
00:32:27,700 --> 00:32:29,433
>> Right.

1246
00:32:29,433 --> 00:32:30,833
>> Right now, it looks more like

1247
00:32:30,833 --> 00:32:33,333
you're going to an awards show

1248
00:32:33,333 --> 00:32:35,533
rather than an inauguration.

1249
00:32:35,533 --> 00:32:37,600
It doesn't look expensive or

1250
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:41,067
luxurious, and is that your bra

1251
00:32:41,067 --> 00:32:43,267
strap coming up on this side?

1252
00:32:43,267 --> 00:32:44,100
>> Right here?

1253
00:32:44,100 --> 00:32:44,833
It make my titty look funny if I

1254
00:32:44,833 --> 00:32:45,933
pushed it out.

1255
00:32:45,933 --> 00:32:47,333
I can put it away for you.

1256
00:32:47,333 --> 00:32:48,967
>> Girl, do not wear your bra

1257
00:32:48,967 --> 00:32:51,067
sticking out of a gown.

1258
00:32:51,067 --> 00:32:52,233
>> Ok.

1259
00:32:52,233 --> 00:32:54,067
>> It's better.

1260
00:32:54,067 --> 00:32:55,467
>> All right, up next, Sharon

1261
00:32:55,467 --> 00:32:56,467
Needles.

1262
00:32:56,467 --> 00:32:57,867
So tell me about your inaugural

1263
00:32:57,867 --> 00:32:59,300
gown.

1264
00:32:59,300 --> 00:33:01,067
>> It's a little futuristic

1265
00:33:01,067 --> 00:33:02,900
because, let's be honest, a drag

1266
00:33:02,900 --> 00:33:04,067
queen's not gonna be president

1267
00:33:04,067 --> 00:33:05,067
for a hundred years, so I had to

1268
00:33:05,067 --> 00:33:06,633
think ahead.

1269
00:33:06,633 --> 00:33:08,200
>> It works, it all works.

1270
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:09,867
The proportions work, and the

1271
00:33:09,867 --> 00:33:10,867
nude and the black and

1272
00:33:10,867 --> 00:33:12,433
especially with the hair you

1273
00:33:12,433 --> 00:33:14,133
have tonight, you hit the nail

1274
00:33:14,133 --> 00:33:16,100
on the head.

1275
00:33:16,100 --> 00:33:17,633
>> As far as your debate goes, I

1276
00:33:17,633 --> 00:33:19,233
just got that you were a woman

1277
00:33:19,233 --> 00:33:21,067
there who had business and you

1278
00:33:21,067 --> 00:33:22,067
wanted to be heard.

1279
00:33:22,067 --> 00:33:22,833
I thought you got the message

1280
00:33:22,833 --> 00:33:25,500
across hilariously.

1281
00:33:25,500 --> 00:33:26,867
>> I'll be honest, I got scared

1282
00:33:26,867 --> 00:33:28,500
as hell when you came out on the

1283
00:33:28,500 --> 00:33:29,533
runway tonight.

1284
00:33:29,533 --> 00:33:30,700
It was good and bad for me.

1285
00:33:30,700 --> 00:33:31,600
>> Sharon Needles, is there

1286
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,200
anything you'd like to say?

1287
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,900
>> I love vodka, and I have

1288
00:33:35,900 --> 00:33:38,567
responsibly enjoyed your company

1289
00:33:38,567 --> 00:33:40,133
many a night.

1290
00:33:40,133 --> 00:33:42,200
>> [laughter]

1291
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:43,167
>> RUPAUL: Thank you, ladies.

1292
00:33:43,167 --> 00:33:44,633
I think we've heard enough.

1293
00:33:44,633 --> 00:33:46,300
While you enjoy an Absolut

1294
00:33:46,300 --> 00:33:47,767
cocktail in the Interior

1295
00:33:47,767 --> 00:33:50,100
Illusions Lounge, the judges and

1296
00:33:50,100 --> 00:33:52,967
I will deliberate.

1297
00:33:52,967 --> 00:33:54,833
All right, just between us

1298
00:33:54,833 --> 00:33:57,967
girls, let's caucus starting

1299
00:33:57,967 --> 00:34:00,200
with Phi Phi O'Hara.

1300
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:01,700
>> Phi Phi committed to that

1301
00:34:01,700 --> 00:34:03,133
Palin-esque character.

1302
00:34:03,133 --> 00:34:04,533
Even if one or two of her jokes

1303
00:34:04,533 --> 00:34:06,333
fell flat, I still thought it

1304
00:34:06,333 --> 00:34:07,700
was believable.

1305
00:34:07,700 --> 00:34:08,867
>> I have respect for people who

1306
00:34:08,867 --> 00:34:10,333
should be committed and are

1307
00:34:10,333 --> 00:34:12,300
committed, but it kind of

1308
00:34:12,300 --> 00:34:13,133
flopped.

1309
00:34:13,133 --> 00:34:14,267
It didn't really hit the joke,

1310
00:34:14,267 --> 00:34:16,267
so for me, it misses the mark.

1311
00:34:16,267 --> 00:34:17,833
>> All right, Dida Ritz, well,

1312
00:34:17,833 --> 00:34:18,700
she said she was intimidated by

1313
00:34:18,700 --> 00:34:19,733
this challenge.

1314
00:34:19,733 --> 00:34:20,633
>> JEFFREY: But you have to go

1315
00:34:20,633 --> 00:34:21,800
out on a limb sometimes and you

1316
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:22,567
have to step out of your comfort

1317
00:34:22,567 --> 00:34:23,433
zone.

1318
00:34:23,433 --> 00:34:24,667
I mean, this is a competition.

1319
00:34:24,667 --> 00:34:25,567
>> MICHELLE: She's a beautiful

1320
00:34:25,567 --> 00:34:27,100
queen, but there's always

1321
00:34:27,100 --> 00:34:28,467
something off about Dida.

1322
00:34:28,467 --> 00:34:29,267
She'll get the hair right and

1323
00:34:29,267 --> 00:34:30,100
the make-up right, and then the

1324
00:34:30,100 --> 00:34:30,933
body's off.

1325
00:34:30,933 --> 00:34:31,767
She'll get the body right, and

1326
00:34:31,767 --> 00:34:33,600
then the hair is like, what?

1327
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,067
>> Now, Michelle, any cons?

1328
00:34:36,067 --> 00:34:37,733
>> [laughter]

1329
00:34:37,733 --> 00:34:39,400
>> I think she's fierce!

1330
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:40,433
>> No, she is absolute--

1331
00:34:40,433 --> 00:34:41,467
That's why she's here.

1332
00:34:41,467 --> 00:34:42,300
>> Is she taking advantage of

1333
00:34:42,300 --> 00:34:43,200
being here?

1334
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:44,100
Like, is she gonna take some

1335
00:34:44,100 --> 00:34:45,133
feedback and make some changes

1336
00:34:45,133 --> 00:34:46,700
or just react defensively?

1337
00:34:46,700 --> 00:34:47,867
>> Let's move on down the line

1338
00:34:47,867 --> 00:34:50,067
to Chad Michaels.

1339
00:34:50,067 --> 00:34:50,900
>> I loved Chad during the

1340
00:34:50,900 --> 00:34:51,833
debate.

1341
00:34:51,833 --> 00:34:52,967
It wasn't just this one-note

1342
00:34:52,967 --> 00:34:54,100
character kind of like Phi Phi

1343
00:34:54,100 --> 00:34:54,967
had.

1344
00:34:54,967 --> 00:34:56,067
Chad had a fully realized human

1345
00:34:56,067 --> 00:34:56,933
being.

1346
00:34:56,933 --> 00:34:58,633
>> And she was going for yet

1347
00:34:58,633 --> 00:34:59,900
another character.

1348
00:34:59,900 --> 00:35:01,567
I love a chameleon, but we've

1349
00:35:01,567 --> 00:35:03,233
seen a lot already, and I'd love

1350
00:35:03,233 --> 00:35:05,567
just a glimpse of who the real

1351
00:35:05,567 --> 00:35:06,867
Chad Michaels is.

1352
00:35:06,867 --> 00:35:09,333
>> All right, Latrice Royale.

1353
00:35:09,333 --> 00:35:10,733
>> She didn't have a character.

1354
00:35:10,733 --> 00:35:11,967
She started strong, and I was

1355
00:35:11,967 --> 00:35:13,300
really in it with her, and then

1356
00:35:13,300 --> 00:35:14,767
I think she lost her way.

1357
00:35:14,767 --> 00:35:16,067
>> And why do we have to tell

1358
00:35:16,067 --> 00:35:17,467
somebody to tuck their bra in?

1359
00:35:17,467 --> 00:35:19,633
Like, this is top five, people,

1360
00:35:19,633 --> 00:35:20,700
but they shouldn't be making

1361
00:35:20,700 --> 00:35:21,800
these mistakes at this point.

1362
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:22,800
>> RUPAUL: That's true.

1363
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:23,867
>> But in the debate, she has

1364
00:35:23,867 --> 00:35:25,933
imposing presence, and people

1365
00:35:25,933 --> 00:35:26,967
look for that in a president.

1366
00:35:26,967 --> 00:35:28,133
She had gravitas.

1367
00:35:28,133 --> 00:35:29,067
>> There's an ointment that will

1368
00:35:29,067 --> 00:35:30,800
clear that up.

1369
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,300
Sharon Needles.

1370
00:35:32,300 --> 00:35:33,867
>> I love her aesthetic, and I

1371
00:35:33,867 --> 00:35:35,600
love her sense of humor, and I

1372
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,133
thought it was really effective.

1373
00:35:37,133 --> 00:35:38,167
We're all here pretending that a

1374
00:35:38,167 --> 00:35:39,633
drag queen could get elected

1375
00:35:39,633 --> 00:35:40,600
president, and she walked out

1376
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:41,867
there and said, "Not for a

1377
00:35:41,867 --> 00:35:43,933
hundred years," and she's right.

1378
00:35:43,933 --> 00:35:44,833
>> But you have to remember, if

1379
00:35:44,833 --> 00:35:45,700
you're gonna be America's next

1380
00:35:45,700 --> 00:35:47,200
drag superstar, you don't want

1381
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:48,933
to do shock value all the time.

1382
00:35:48,933 --> 00:35:52,367
>> All right, silence!

1383
00:35:52,367 --> 00:35:56,433
Bring back my girls.

1384
00:35:56,433 --> 00:35:57,800
Ha ha!

1385
00:36:00,933 --> 00:36:02,900
>> RUPAUL: Ha ha!

1386
00:36:02,933 --> 00:36:05,633
Welcome back, ladies.

1387
00:36:05,633 --> 00:36:10,133
The votes have been tallied.

1388
00:36:10,133 --> 00:36:13,067
Chad Michaels, you created a

1389
00:36:13,067 --> 00:36:15,467
candidate with character, and

1390
00:36:15,467 --> 00:36:17,533
you took the Wig Party back to

1391
00:36:17,533 --> 00:36:19,400
its roots.

1392
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:20,600
You're safe.

1393
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,300
>> Thanks a lot.

1394
00:36:27,933 --> 00:36:29,700
>> RUPAUL: Sharon Needles, you

1395
00:36:29,700 --> 00:36:31,867
took your campaign to hell and

1396
00:36:31,867 --> 00:36:34,600
back and gave us much more than

1397
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:38,467
politics as usual.

1398
00:36:38,467 --> 00:36:39,633
Condragulations, you are the

1399
00:36:39,633 --> 00:36:43,200
winner of this challenge.

1400
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,867
And you've won a $5,000 gift

1401
00:36:45,867 --> 00:36:46,867
certificate from

1402
00:36:46,867 --> 00:36:49,900
InteriorIllusionshome.com.

1403
00:36:49,900 --> 00:36:51,267
>> Thank you so much, and I'll

1404
00:36:51,267 --> 00:36:56,800
see you at the Iowa primary.

1405
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,067
>> Dida Ritz, during the

1406
00:36:59,067 --> 00:37:02,367
debates, you cracked.

1407
00:37:02,367 --> 00:37:03,767
I'm sorry, my dear, but you are

1408
00:37:03,767 --> 00:37:06,633
up for elimination.

1409
00:37:06,633 --> 00:37:08,133
>> DIDA: Oh, my god, I'm

1410
00:37:08,133 --> 00:37:09,367
gagging.

1411
00:37:09,367 --> 00:37:10,600
The last thing I want is for me

1412
00:37:10,667 --> 00:37:14,467
to be in the bottom two.

1413
00:37:14,533 --> 00:37:15,967
>> Phi Phi O'Hara, your

1414
00:37:15,967 --> 00:37:18,733
politically incorrect politician

1415
00:37:18,733 --> 00:37:22,333
was polarizing.

1416
00:37:22,333 --> 00:37:24,800
Latrice Royale, your debating

1417
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:29,600
skills were debatable.

1418
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,767
Phi Phi O'Hara...

1419
00:37:32,767 --> 00:37:36,333
you are safe.

1420
00:37:36,333 --> 00:37:38,867
You may join the other girls.

1421
00:37:44,667 --> 00:37:47,067
Latrice Royale, I'm sorry, my

1422
00:37:47,067 --> 00:37:47,900
dear, but you are up for

1423
00:37:47,900 --> 00:37:51,100
elimination.

1424
00:37:51,100 --> 00:37:52,633
>> LATRICE: I'm devastated, but

1425
00:37:52,700 --> 00:37:54,400
I'm not ready to go.

1426
00:37:54,467 --> 00:37:56,733
>> Two queens stand before me.

1427
00:37:56,733 --> 00:37:59,067
Ladies, this is your last chance

1428
00:37:59,067 --> 00:38:01,700
to impress me and save yourself

1429
00:38:01,700 --> 00:38:04,233
from elimination.

1430
00:38:04,233 --> 00:38:05,967
The time has come for you to lip

1431
00:38:05,967 --> 00:38:12,633
sync for your life.

1432
00:38:12,633 --> 00:38:16,900
Good luck and don't fuck it up.

1433
00:38:16,967 --> 00:38:21,867
>> [music playing]

1434
00:38:21,933 --> 00:38:23,200
>> GLADYS KNIGHT: * I've really

1435
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,733
got to use

1436
00:38:25,733 --> 00:38:29,767
my imagination

1437
00:38:29,767 --> 00:38:33,633
To think of the reasons

1438
00:38:33,633 --> 00:38:35,933
to keep on keeping on

1439
00:38:35,933 --> 00:38:37,767
>> Keep on keeping on *

1441
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,733
I am channeling a superstar.

1442
00:38:43,733 --> 00:38:44,600
Honey, I feel like I'm

1443
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,267
performing to an arena of 20,000

1444
00:38:46,267 --> 00:38:48,400
people.

1445
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:49,200
>> GLADYS KNIGHT: * Darkness

1446
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,133
all around me *

1447
00:38:51,133 --> 00:38:52,500
>> LATRICE: This is old school.

1448
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:53,200
>> KNIGHT: * Blocking out

1449
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:53,967
the sun *

1450
00:38:53,967 --> 00:38:54,833
>> LATRICE: You need to

1451
00:38:54,833 --> 00:38:56,367
understand where these words are

1452
00:38:56,367 --> 00:38:57,900
coming from

1453
00:38:57,900 --> 00:39:00,067
and get the emotion out, and

1454
00:39:00,067 --> 00:39:01,200
that's what I did.

1455
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:02,067
>> GLADYS KNIGHT: * ...a sad,

1456
00:39:02,067 --> 00:39:02,933
sad season

1457
00:39:02,933 --> 00:39:05,067

>> When a good love dies

00:39:12,667 --> 00:39:14,067
that you were gone

I mean, my skin started smoking.

1468
00:39:20,067 --> 00:39:21,100
It was good.

decision.

Latrice Royale, shanté, you

1480
00:39:49,100 --> 00:39:52,100
stay.

1481
00:39:52,100 --> 00:39:54,733
You may join the other girls.

1482
00:39:54,733 --> 00:39:56,100
>> Thank you, thank you.

1483
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,067
>> DIDA: I love you.

1484
00:40:03,633 --> 00:40:05,967
>> Dida Ritz, you are a young

1485
00:40:05,967 --> 00:40:10,033
queen with a lot of imagination.

1486
00:40:10,033 --> 00:40:12,867
So keep on keeping on.

1487
00:40:12,867 --> 00:40:16,700
Now sashay away.

1488
00:40:16,700 --> 00:40:20,967
>> Thank you.

1489
00:40:20,967 --> 00:40:23,867
See you later.

1490
00:40:23,867 --> 00:40:24,967
I'm not upset.

1491
00:40:24,967 --> 00:40:27,333
I have no regrets at all.

1492
00:40:27,333 --> 00:40:28,900
This is only the beginning.

1493
00:40:28,900 --> 00:40:29,867
I've made it all the way to the

1494
00:40:29,867 --> 00:40:31,900
top five, and I'm drag race

1495
00:40:31,900 --> 00:40:35,033
royalty now.

1496
00:40:35,033 --> 00:40:38,833
>> RUPAUL: Ladies, as you know,

1497
00:40:38,833 --> 00:40:40,300
each week I consult with the

1498
00:40:40,300 --> 00:40:43,700
judges, but the final decision

1499
00:40:43,700 --> 00:40:45,767
is mine to make.

1500
00:40:45,767 --> 00:40:48,300
Once again, I've been criticized

1501
00:40:48,300 --> 00:40:50,167
for sending some of my queens

1502
00:40:50,167 --> 00:40:53,867
home too soon.

1503
00:40:53,867 --> 00:40:57,167
