Were having a sleepover!
It begins with a tribute to classic sitcom theme songs and dubbing the season 12 queens The Shady Bunch.
Its funny, its cute, and we even get a throwaway reference to Sherry Pie that I wasnotexpecting.
Its a tasty, socially distant snack that leaves us hungry for the highly anticipated finale episode next week.
Much like a Nicky Doll read, reunions are non-linear, and they shift focus frequently.
So lets talk about the highlights!
Heidi remains Heidi N. ClosetWere celebrating, Closet Cases!
Heidi remains proudly closeted, and Im so thrilled to see it.
Also, Ru, where was this energy for Kalorie Karbdashian Williams?
Britas apology tourOh, Brita.
Brita went through it this season.
Theres an emotionally empty reconciliation with Aiden, featuring the favoriteDrag Racebromide: Were likesisters, and sometimes sistersfight.
Nicky DollOne of my surprising favorites of this reunion is none other than Nicky Doll.
God bless this Parisian queen!
Dont be surprised if you see her pop up onAll Starsin a year or two.
Its quite clear thatDrag Raceis leaning into the self-made, charismatic, viral legend.
Im sure we can expect to see her popping up in many seasons to come.
Reading is nothing if not an essential service, and our queens are happy to provide it.
This is what we call a two-for-one read.
Brita had time tonight.
Brita
I repeat: WOW.
I was not prepared for this ruthless read.
Brita and Aiden havebarelyreconciled, and yet Brita comes through with this gut punch.
Aiden really could not catch a break this season and tonight is no exception.
(If you havent seenPatricia Quinns official statement on Aiden Zhane, its a must read.)
Dont worry, you guys, I put everything into Google translate, and it came out funny!
Crystal Methyd, you are the prettiest girl on the planet… of the apes.
Widow VonDu
Like Brita, Widow did not come to play for this challenge.
She did not hold back with these girls.
Gigi Goode, I bet R. Kelly wouldnt even piss on you.
Widow VonDu
I have… no words.
Only one way to find out.
See you next week!
