RuPaul's Drag Race: Untucked! (2010–…): Season 11, Episode 8 - Droop - full transcript
[Lashauwn] This is not
RuPaul's Best Friend Race!
[Laganja] I feel very attacked!
[Vanjie]
I was trying to be cordial with you!
[Silky] If I would have
lip synced for my life today, bitch,
I was ready to do so!
-[upbeat music playing]
-[RuPaul] This is Untucked...
backstage of the competition to become
America's next drag superstar.
Girl, if you're not watching Untucked,
you're only getting half the story.
[upbeat music playing]
[male crew member] Let's break
on the main stage! All cameras repo.
[RuPaul] Thank you, ladies.
While you untuck backstage,
the judges and I will deliberate.
You may leave the stage.
[intense music playing]
[Gigi] It was a weird feeling
getting negative critiques
for the very first time.
I haven't really been getting anything
but positive critiques up until now.
But...
I'm gonna use these critiques
to my advantage
and apply them to the next challenge.
And make sure that I'm coming out on top.
[Widow] I'm devastated.
I'm also defeated,
'cause somewhere in this competition,
I think I lost the spark of having fun.
I got into my head because I don't want
to be seen as someone who's safe,
someone who just coasts through,
and I haven't been the top
since the first week.
-[male crew member 1] And speeding.
-[male crew member 2] Marker.
Definitely need one of these.
It's gonna be somber in here today, honey.
[Jaida] Child.
Wooo, child!
Ru asked us who should go home today.
How did y'all feel
having to make that decision?
[intense music playing]
[sips]
Who should go home tonight?
I laughed the least at Widow's.
I would have to say Widow as well.
I would also have to say Widow.
I agree with my sisters.
I would have to say Widow.
She's one of my best friends here,
and it's tearing me up to say this.
I would have to say Widow.
I felt so great the first day here.
And then it just feels like it's just
going straight downhill from there.
Like, I hold myself so high
and everything that I've done
for the last 13 years...
in drag, and I've conquered every demon
that ever like, stepped in the way,
'cause I knew I was Widow Von'Du.
I don't know, it's something about
this beast called RuPaul's Drag Race
I can't seem to conquer it.
I can't grasp it.
This is a hard-ass experience, hun.
Ooh, child.
What are you thinking, Widow?
[Widow sighs]
[emotional music playing]
I wanted to meet Chaka Khan
and unfortunately it's under...
these circumstances, so...
[Jackie] If you have to lip sync this song
and Chaka Khan sees you
bring this song to life...
You got a fan.
You're also the biggest Chaka Khan fan
out of all of us.
So, I wish there was something
I could say to make this better for you.
[Widow] I'm frustrated.
I'm extremely frustrated.
'Cause... I don't like hearing
that I've done wrong, and...
I'm just so angry,
not at the judges for telling the truth,
I'm angry at myself.
I'm ashamed of what I've done.
And I feel like
I'm squandering this moment.
[Sherry] Gigi, how are you?
I'm, um...
kind of just like, mad at myself.
This is the first time I've gotten
negative feedback from the judges,
and it just kind of...
-brings you down a little bit, huh?
-[queens laugh]
-[queen] Yeah.
-[Heidi] It does.
[Gigi] But, I mean, honestly...
what's done is done.
I might be in the bottom,
I'm just gonna know my words, and...
that's the most I can do.
That's all you can do.
[Jaida] Bitch.
You had a really good week.
[Sherry] And they loved your fashion!
-[queens cheer]
-They loved this look.
I was pretty on the runway, ohh,
-she can sleep happy.
-[Jaida] How did you feel?
It felt like Heidi's arrived, you know?
Like, she's here, and it's like,
girl, you showed up a little late,
but as long as you showed up--
I think Heidi's been here,
I just don't think you realized it
-until you heard them say it.
-Totally.
Yeah, you deserve it.
[Gigi] And you definitely
use this as motivation
-for future challenges.
-[Jaida] Yeah.
It feels so good, and it's just...
fuelling the fire that I have inside
to really keep pushing.
For a long time in this competition
it was just a back and forth
with Gigi and Sherry winning everything,
so I'm really excited to be getting
such good feedback from the judges.
Bitch, [scoffs], it's about time.
You know, I'm feeling like...
I actually have a shot at this,
I could go all the way.
How do you feel, Jan?
I feel terrible.
[emotional music playing]
[breathes in] I've been trying
to show them like,
who I am, and show them what I can do...
It's just a manifestation of everything
that I've tried to do in this competition.
I've literally tried to throw
everything but the kitchen sink
at the judges, to hopefully impress
them and show them what I can do.
And that's how the video came across.
It was too over-the-top.
It wasn't refined, it wasn't detailed.
I think that I tried to just...
throw my personality out there
instead of focus on
the refinement of what the challenge
needed to be. [sniffles]
And like, in hindsight now...
of course I see it.
And I don't wanna cry... [sniffles]
but I definitely think that...
it's gonna be me and Widow in the bottom.
[intense music playing]
And having Chaka Khan here,
having Widow being
such a big Chaka Khan fan, like...
[stammers] I would be lying
if I didn't say that I was nervous.
I'm gonna go out there
and slay the house,
because I want to show them
that I want to be here,
but I don't want to lip sync against
you really loving this song
and just like, you being
a sickening entertainer.
You wanna be here too,
and I'm just like...
The Jantasy is not being felt right now.
If you look at my track record
so far in this competition,
I've been safe or top,
I have not had that moment
where I've done so poorly
that I've been in the bottom.
And it sucks,
but I am not going to let this
deter me from my goal.
Even if it's all odds against me.
[Gigi] So...
I know we all had to say on stage
who we thought should go home,
but I'm kinda interested in hearing
who you all think is like,
your biggest competition.
[intense music playing]
[Heidi] You bitch,
you done won 12 challenges.
[queens laugh]
I think Jaida's very stiff competition.
For sure.
I say Sherry and Gigi,
because they are both so different...
and although you've had a lot of wins,
and Sherry, you have not won
as many challenges,
or many challenges as she's won...
I still feel like there's a lot
more to you, but then like,
for the rest of us, I feel like,
we get in our head a lot,
and that's the one thing
that can like...
-[Sherry] Take you out of it.
-Yeah, like, so, it's like...
You can be a strong competitor,
but if that bitch slip up,
that week can get in her head,
bitch, and that's gonna be...
[Jackie] You know what, I think,
if I was gonna pick a top four...
other than myself, it would be...
Sherry, Gigi, and-- and you, Miss Jaida.
[intense music playing]
-Really?
-[Jan] I mean, I think,
everybody's really talented.
[Jan] Bitch,
just because I'm in the bottom,
it's not gonna change
my feelings in this competition.
I can see myself in
the top four very clearly.
I have such drive and passion for this.
I am not a quitter.
I deserve to be in that top four.
[Heidi] Widow...
Who do you think?
What was the question?
I wasn't paying attention.
Sorry, I'm not all here right now.
-[Crystal] It's okay.
-It's okay.
Oh, but you better--
-Oh, my God!
-[queens scream]
[Chaka] Hello, my ladies. Hi, sweetie.
[Widow] Baby.
I was so hoping
I was going to be in the top.
'Cause as much as I want
to meet Chaka Khan...
I didn't want to lip sync
a Chaka Khan song
in front of the judges on the main stage.
But, hey, it's Chaka Khan.
Like, you might just dump the dirt
over the coffin, 'cause a bitch is dead.
[sighs]
I can't sit next to the queen
without hair.
Fabulous.
[Jaida] Oh, my God, I feel like
we should've mopped the floor
if we knew she was coming over!
No, no, no, I'm no different than y'all.
[squeals]
[Chaka] I want to wish you all good luck.
-[Jaida] Thank you. Oh, my God.
-[Gigi] Thank you.
It's tough what you're doing.
I know a little bit of it.
Because I do a little drag, too, you know.
Girl, you got the heels on,
you got the sparkle,
-you got it all.
-Like, we're kindred spirits. [laughs]
So, I know how hard it is.
But it can be very rewarding.
Because you're following your calling.
That's what's important,
you're following what you love to do.
[Heidi] Yeah.
I always say like, anybody who...
does drag, in whatever form
of drag you do it, like,
"I'm Every Woman" is, to me, like,
one of those drag anthems,
-and no matter who you are...
-Yes.
-Amen.
-[Jaida] It will speak to you.
[Chaka] It does speak
to people in such a way.
I mean, everywhere I go.
All over the world.
-Everybody knows that song.
-Rightfully so.
I can't believe I'm sitting here
with Chaka Khan.
[Gigi] Yes, this is crazy.
I know I'm sitting here real quiet,
'cause I'm just...
I've talked about...
you all day, today
in the Werk Room, and...
[squeals]
-[queens laugh]
-Yeah, that's right.
This is like, it's been like this, like...
We were all just like,
having a conversation
about like, how this is so hard, but...
the hardest part about it is like,
making sure that we overcome
the demons in our minds
that tell us, like we are
not good enough
-to do it, or it's like--
-Amen.
[Chaka]
And there are lots of those around us.
[emotional music playing]
And there is as many good ones
as there is bad ones.
It sound's like I'm cuckoo...
-No.
-[queens disagree]
But I'm telling you, negative thoughts,
and feelings, and...
entities can enter you
when you're at your weakest.
When you feel like you're a loser.
But you are smarter than they are,
and you can whoop it all.
Anything negative, you can whoop its ass.
-[Jaida] All right.
-You have that power.
[Widow] I mean,
I do really want to thank you for
"Through the Fire", it's-- It's really
pulled me through a lot of...
difficult times.
And...
seeing you on stage, I was like,
"I hope I kill this challenge,
I don't wanna cry
in front of Chaka Khan..."
And I was crying, and just...
Thinking of your song, just,
is what's keeping me standing right now.
Good. Well, stand on it.
[Chaka] Stand on it.
Cause' I meant that song.
Every time I sing it, I mean it.
Okay?
Queens, sorry, I gotta take
Chaka Khan now...
-[queens exclaim]
-Good bye.
Bye, thank you. [blows kisses]
-Bye.
-[queens laugh]
God bless you all.
Be strong, stay beautiful in here.
-I love you.
-Thank you.
-All right. Bye-bye, see you.
-[queen] We love you.
-[queens] Bye.
-[Chaka] Bye.
[Heidi] Can't stop smiling, look at her.
[Jackie] I don't know, Widow,
what's going on?
[Heidi] Let it out, honey.
I need to go listen to my lip sync song,
I'm not--
-No, you gotta tell us what's goin' on.
-I will not.
I cannot disappoint
Chaka Khan on her song.
There is a new fire
that has been lit into my soul.
Deep in my spirit.
[intense music playing]
And... ladies, I bid you adieu,
I'm going over there. [laughs]
[Sherry] Go get it, go get it, girl!
[Heidi] Tear it up if you have to,
honey, tear it up.
[Sherry] I'm gonna listen to my tunes.
Me as well.
Chaka Khan is one of Widow's
biggest idols.
So, not only do I know
that I'm gonna be going up against
the best dancer
in this entire competition,
but she has
so much going for her right now.
I need a miracle to happen.
[sighs] What a life.
You're kind of where I was last week,
where it's like...
-[quietly] Yeah.
-I don't think--
I don't think you did bad
in this challenge.
[Jan] Mmm, I didn't do well, though.
I definitely think it's gonna be me.
And...
-I'm gonna turn it.
-I know you can turn it.
You're gonna be disappointing me mostly
if you don't fucking mop down the house.
-Gotta turn it.
-Yeah.
America's gonna see
what you can really do.
If that happens, then they'll get
this chance to see that like...
the force that you are
to be reckoned with.
If I have to lip sync,
I'm gonna go out there,
and do the thing
that I love to do the most,
which is entertain, and have fun,
and just...
-[sighs] living it.
-Good.
I can't lose another
New York girl this week.
It's not gonna happen.
She's gonna turn it.
Queens, five minutes to the runway.
[Jan] Thank you.
-Slay. Slay.
-[Jan] I'm gonna, girl.
-You're going to.
-She's gonna. Through the fire.
-Good. I love you.
-I love you. Thank you.
[intense music playing]
[Jan] I'm having fun in this competition
and I don't want it to end.
And...
if I'm in the bottom two next to Widow,
who is the biggest Chaka Khan fan,
and an amazing performer...
I know she's gonna turn it.
But, bitch...
I'm gonna turn it, too.
[Widow] I was in my head in the challenge,
and I knew that this is what was coming.
It's game time.
And...
I got my pep talks from my icon.
Chaka Khan.
Like...
I am not going the fuck home.
[male crew member] All right, queens.
-Runway time.
-Oh, my God, here we go.
If it's us...
-kill it out there. Make Chaka proud.
-For Chaka, bitch.
If it's us, bitch...
let's give them the reason
that they keep us both.
And let's prove to them that we can
come back from the fuck up that we did,
-and do this.
-[Jan] Let's go do this.
-Let's go give them a motherfuckin' show.
-I don't wanna cry no more tonight.
-I can't cry no more tonight, bitch.
-Come here.
-I can't cry no more tonight, bitch.
-No more tears.
Let's do this, bitch. Let's go.
Pray to the gay gods today.
[RuPaul] Welcome back, ladies.
I've made some decisions.
Widow Von'Du.
Jan.
The time has come...
for you to lip sync...
for...
your...
life!
Widow Von'Du.
Shantay, you stay.
-[emotional music playing]
-[RuPaul] Jan.
You are simply... fabulous.
And never forget that.
Now...
sashay away...
[Jan cries]
[Jan sobs]
[Jan] I put everything
into this competition.
[continues sobbing]
I don't know how I could have
done any better...
than what I did.
[continues sobbing]
I'm crushed.
Because this was my dream.
Oh, hello!
Oh, God!
All right, this one's from Widow.
Oh...
"I'm so sad that it came down
to you and me.
I love your soul and spirit,
always bringing joy to the Werk Room,
I'm gonna miss you so much."
[sniffles]
"You are a fierce queen,
keep on keepin' on."
Ohhh.
She was the one person I was like,
"I don't wanna go up against."
I'm leaving with a heavy heart,
just wanting more.
But...
I have big plans for the future,
I know that...
I want to do so much with drag, and...
You know, I might have lost the set.
I still have the whole match to play,
and that match is
the rest of my life, so...
I'm excited to see
where the future takes me.
[grunts] Okay.
[emotional music playing]
Oh, God. [sighs]
Here we go.
Bye, y'all.
[sniffles]
[sniffles]
[Jan] I gave Widow
the best fight that I could.
But it wasn't even about staying,
it was about proving
that I can hold my own.
I'm not just a singer,
I'm not just a pretty girl.
I'm a fierce entertainer.
And I proved that.
All right, everybody,
thank you so much for loving me,
I hope I made you feel the Jantasy,
everybody be kind to one another,
and believe in yourselves.
Never give up on your dreams,
and chase them fiercely. Mwah.
Bye.
Bye.
[louder] Bye!

Girl, you got the heels on,
you got the sparkle,
-you got it all.
-Like, we're kindred spirits. [laughs]
So, I know how hard it is.
But it can be very rewarding.
Because you're following your calling.
That's what's important,
you're following what you love to do.
[Heidi] Yeah.
I always say like, anybody who...
does drag, in whatever form
of drag you do it, like,
"I'm Every Woman" is, to me, like,
one of those drag anthems,
-and no matter who you are...
-Yes.
-Amen.
-[Jaida] It will speak to you.
[Chaka] It does speak
to people in such a way.
I mean, everywhere I go.
All over the world.
-Everybody knows that song.
-Rightfully so.
I can't believe I'm sitting here
with Chaka Khan.
[Gigi] Yes, this is crazy.
I know I'm sitting here real quiet,
'cause I'm just...
I've talked about...
you all day, today
in the Werk Room, and...
[squeals]
-[queens laugh]
-Yeah, that's right.
This is like, it's been like this, like...
We were all just like,
having a conversation
about like, how this is so hard, but...
the hardest part about it is like,
making sure that we overcome
the demons in our minds
that tell us, like we are
not good enough
-to do it, or it's like--
-Amen.
[Chaka]
And there are lots of those around us.
[emotional music playing]
And there is as many good ones
as there is bad ones.
It sound's like I'm cuckoo...
-No.
-[queens disagree]
But I'm telling you, negative thoughts,
and feelings, and...
entities can enter you
when you're at your weakest.
When you feel like you're a loser.
But you are smarter than they are,
and you can whoop it all.
Anything negative, you can whoop its ass.
-[Jaida] All right.
-You have that power.
[Widow] I mean,
I do really want to thank you for
"Through the Fire", it's-- It's really
pulled me through a lot of...
difficult times.
And...
seeing you on stage, I was like,
"I hope I kill this challenge,
I don't wanna cry
in front of Chaka Khan..."
And I was crying, and just...
Thinking of your song, just,
is what's keeping me standing right now.
Good. Well, stand on it.
[Chaka] Stand on it.
Cause' I meant that song.
Every time I sing it, I mean it.
Okay?
Queens, sorry, I gotta take
Chaka Khan now...
-[queens exclaim]
-Good bye.
Bye, thank you. [blows kisses]
-Bye.
-[queens laugh]
God bless you all.
Be strong, stay beautiful in here.
-I love you.
-Thank you.
-All right. Bye-bye, see you.
-[queen] We love you.
-[queens] Bye.
-[Chaka] Bye.
[Heidi] Can't stop smiling, look at her.
[Jackie] I don't know, Widow,
what's going on?
[Heidi] Let it out, honey.
I need to go listen to my lip sync song,
I'm not--
-No, you gotta tell us what's goin' on.
-I will not.
I cannot disappoint
Chaka Khan on her song.
There is a new fire
that has been lit into my soul.
Deep in my spirit.
[intense music playing]
And... ladies, I bid you adieu,
I'm going over there. [laughs]
[Sherry] Go get it, go get it, girl!
[Heidi] Tear it up if you have to,
honey, tear it up.
[Sherry] I'm gonna listen to my tunes.
Me as well.
Chaka Khan is one of Widow's
biggest idols.
So, not only do I know
that I'm gonna be going up against
the best dancer
in this entire competition,
but she has
so much going for her right now.
I need a miracle to happen.
[sighs] What a life.
You're kind of where I was last week,
where it's like...
-[quietly] Yeah.
-I don't think--
I don't think you did bad
in this challenge.
[Jan] Mmm, I didn't do well, though.
I definitely think it's gonna be me.
And...
-I'm gonna turn it.
-I know you can turn it.
You're gonna be disappointing me mostly
if you don't fucking mop down the house.
-Gotta turn it.
-Yeah.
America's gonna see
what you can really do.
If that happens, then they'll get
this chance to see that like...
the force that you are
to be reckoned with.
If I have to lip sync,
I'm gonna go out there,
and do the thing
that I love to do the most,
which is entertain, and have fun,
and just...
-[sighs] living it.
-Good.
I can't lose another
New York girl this week.
It's not gonna happen.
She's gonna turn it.
Queens, five minutes to the runway.
[Jan] Thank you.
-Slay. Slay.
-[Jan] I'm gonna, girl.
-You're going to.
-She's gonna. Through the fire.
-Good. I love you.
-I love you. Thank you.
[intense music playing]
[Jan] I'm having fun in this competition
and I don't want it to end.
And...
if I'm in the bottom two next to Widow,
who is the biggest Chaka Khan fan,
and an amazing performer...
I know she's gonna turn it.
But, bitch...
I'm gonna turn it, too.
[Widow] I was in my head in the challenge,
and I knew that this is what was coming.
It's game time.
And...
I got my pep talks from my icon.
Chaka Khan.
Like...
I am not going the fuck home.
[male crew member] All right, queens.
-Runway time.
-Oh, my God, here we go.
If it's us...
-kill it out there. Make Chaka proud.
-For Chaka, bitch.
If it's us, bitch...
let's give them the reason
that they keep us both.
And let's prove to them that we can
come back from the fuck up that we did,
-and do this.
-[Jan] Let's go do this.
-Let's go give them a motherfuckin' show.
-I don't wanna cry no more tonight.
-I can't cry no more tonight, bitch.
-Come here.
-I can't cry no more tonight, bitch.
-No more tears.
Let's do this, bitch. Let's go.
Pray to the gay gods today.
[RuPaul] Welcome back, ladies.
I've made some decisions.
Widow Von'Du.
Jan.
The time has come...
for you to lip sync...
for...
your...
life!
Widow Von'Du.
Shantay, you stay.
-[emotional music playing]
-[RuPaul] Jan.
You are simply... fabulous.
And never forget that.
Now...
sashay away...
[Jan cries]
[Jan sobs]
[Jan] I put everything
into this competition.
[continues sobbing]
I don't know how I could have
done any better...
than what I did.
[continues sobbing]
I'm crushed.
Because this was my dream.
Oh, hello!
Oh, God!
All right, this one's from Widow.
Oh...
"I'm so sad that it came down
to you and me.
I love your soul and spirit,
always bringing joy to the Werk Room,
I'm gonna miss you so much."
[sniffles]
"You are a fierce queen,
keep on keepin' on."
Ohhh.
She was the one person I was like,
"I don't wanna go up against."
I'm leaving with a heavy heart,
just wanting more.
But...
I have big plans for the future,
I know that...
I want to do so much with drag, and...
You know, I might have lost the set.
I still have the whole match to play,
and that match is
the rest of my life, so...
I'm excited to see
where the future takes me.
[grunts] Okay.
[emotional music playing]
Oh, God. [sighs]
Here we go.
Bye, y'all.
[sniffles]
[sniffles]
[Jan] I gave Widow
the best fight that I could.
But it wasn't even about staying,
it was about proving
that I can hold my own.
I'm not just a singer,
I'm not just a pretty girl.
I'm a fierce entertainer.
And I proved that.
All right, everybody,
thank you so much for loving me,
I hope I made you feel the Jantasy,
everybody be kind to one another,
and believe in yourselves.
Never give up on your dreams,
and chase them fiercely. Mwah.
Bye.
Bye.
[louder] Bye!
