Alright Mary: All Things RuPaul's Drag Race

It's been a stampede of queens this season, but only five remain to deliver white elephant eleganza--and of course, produce their own verses for a music video. But luckily, that means we get studio time with p'Gene and some vogueing 101 with p'Debbie! Frontrunner and Alright Mary favorite Angele Anang veers into Silky territory in the final lip sync, but is still the queen to beat against superstar returning contestants Kana and Kandy. We then catch up with the entire cast (except M Stranger Fox) at the reunion, where Katy Killer likely breaks her knee and we remember who Maya B'Haro was.

This week, we get to know the queens through their loved ones eyes! We celebrate the relationship between Bandit and his mom, Kandy and hers, and Kana and his little sister. Johnny gets emotional over the lip-sync song and Colin connects mostly with those elders in the mini-challenge. Also- Art is double booked this week on the runway so we're left with the Pangina as the baby-sitter home from college for the summer. This was a good one. Only one more challenge before the reunion, Mary!

There are few moments in reality TV that can compare to the moments at the end of this Drag Race Thailand episode. There's what life is like before this episode and then there's what life is like after this episode. Music!

The top five are serving us the courage to be someone else in the main challenge: Snatch Game of Love! Deja Vu, right Mary? Vanda gives us a horny Cardi B, Srimala slays us with her quirky old lady drag, Bandit is perfection in yellow, and Tormai wins our hearts with a helicopter and a water gun. The real drama happens on the runway when Angele shows us the creation of her body and Vanda struggles to reveal herself and the judges are left... Hungry. The real gag is when Johnny finds out his favorite sent home queen returns to the competition! We go on many tangents, Mary... including a joyful Catherine O'Hara-gent as well as stories of Johnny's mom Flapush Debbie. Enjoy Mary!

*Spoiler Warning: this interview may contain spoilers for Drag Race Thailand Season 2* Make a wish, Mary! This week, we get to talk with DRTs2 queen Genie who graciously offers up her journey to the Drag Race Thailand stage, behind-the-scenes logistics, and some wonderful perspectives on drag. She delights us with her humor, her music choices, and her insights. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Did we miss any questions you might have had? Do you have a wish? Reach out to Genie!

It's dinner and a show this week with the Top 6 whipping up delicious designs inspired by classic Thai cuisine. We also get a pretty extensive crash course in cooking from the dreamy Chef Fang, which sends us on a long tangent about desirability politics and sexual preferences. Angele Anang serves up an amazing green curry (and interesting makeup choices), Bandit breaks her yolk but not her safe streak, Smirala is a good egg, Vanda should have ordered out, Genie's an acquired taste, and while Tormai isn't everyone's favorite dish, we'd certainly have seconds. Who will be served their just desserts in a three way lip sync? Our lips are sealed! (Well, not really. We talk about it in the episode.)

Ironically, on the "power of speech" episode, we had a slight technical difficulty and Colin's mic crapped out 22 minutes in, but that didn't stop us from queening out on the Top 8's talk show circuit, Bandit's mature wisdom in the workroom, and Genie, Tormai and Vanda's powerful speeches on the runway. But of course, the biggest goop of the episode was the rigor morris called out at the 11th hour by Mocha. Pangina came painted to read this week and delivered the toughest love we've seen from her yet (babe!), teaching Mocha a powerful lesson in handling things maturely. (Gimhuay certainly got the hint and sashayed away with grace and dignity.)

This week, we discuss the acting challenge on Drag Race Thailand Season 2 where the queens split up into teams and act in a horror soap opera called The Haunting Dolls. We discuss the standouts during the mini challenge, the rigor morris on the runway, and why Pangina has carved her own reality TV show character. Also, Johnny is super delirious this episode-- so the giggles will happen Mary!

Drag Race Thailand has a makeover challenge and we're here for it, Mary. We get straight men asking queer questions, Pangina as stained glass windows to Art's Madonna, and many mother-of-the-bride concepts. We highlight our favorite moments in the work room with the special guest daughters and go crazy for a lip-sync song that has us writing letters. Enjoy, Mary!

This week we get a recycled mini challenge, a Rigor Morris suspicious Maxi Challenge outcome (rare for DR Thailand), and Pagina Heals as Mariah Carey! On the runway, the queens have to serve two looks (again!) and we can't help but chant along with a past Pangina: don't be pretty, don't be pretty, don't be pretty, don't be pretty! The lip sync is a master class lead by (Queen's name redacted) and we were left fully gagged and fully in love.
