I don't feel like I'm getting everyone's true face.

- This week we are shifting into hyperdrive

for our science fiction horror challenge.

- Evah, this is a season of "Titans".

It is the best of the best.

And you are wearing a mail-order bodysuit.

- HoSo, congratulations, darling,

you have won the challenge.

- Yay!!!

- Victoria, congratulations,

you have also won the challenge.

(contestants exclaiming)

- Yeah, bitch!

- Work! - Yes!

- I really hate saying this,

but I just think that your sense of ego

is like is what is doing you right now.

- I'm fucking pissed.

Fucking cunts.

You'd better hope I fall through that trap door then.

- [Melissa] I'm done, I'm not gonna, whatever.

Don't stay here and fucking tell me that shit, the fuck.

- Kendra.

(dramatic music)

- Another day, we made it.

- Another week. - Still here.

- Week four in purgatory.

- Last week was insane, but I'm very excited

to have won the challenge with HoSo.

- So last week, Abhora and Kendra were in the bottom

and I'm so glad that Abhora's gonna go home.

- So who out of Kendra and Abhora do you think went home?

- I'm really torn, I don't know.

- So, Kendra's look I was getting sci-fi

but like from just the look alone,

I wasn't getting the horror part of it.

- She was doing a whore-or.

- But it's clear that Kendra like

just like for this challenge specifically,

like just was not prepared on the same level

as everybody else was.

And you know what, she never lost hope.

She never got a bad attitude.

She was like, I'm gonna go out there

even though I don't have anything to wear

for this challenge. - And that's the difference.

- And I'm gonna make it work, I'm gonna go out there.

- And that, with that being said,

that's why I think Kendra should stay over Abhora.

- She sounds and acts like a person

who should be going forward.

- Yeah. - Same.

- But I feel like they're gonna keep Abhora here.

- Yeah, oh my God.

- Kendra's such a fun time to be around

and right now Abhora's not a fun time to be around.

- Last week while we were stepping out of the Cauldron,

this bitch was like,

"you better hope I go down those trap doors"

like threaten me, threaten whoever called out her name.

- All of us.

- I was thrown the fuck off, you know?

- And you know what pissed me

like the fuck off afterwards too?

She comes back to me being like,

"oh my God, why did I do that?

Oh, I'm probably going home now.

Like what the is wrong with me?"

Self-deprecating, and I'm like, shut the fuck up.

- That speech about how she thought she had mastered drag,

fuck off, no one is a master of drag ever.

- Because I got really tired of drag for a very long time

because I thought that I had mastered it.

- It's an ego thing.

She is so inside her own head in the worst and best ways

and she takes that out on every single other person in--

- We know, we've experienced it.

But y'all love and protect that though.

So I don't want to hear anymore about it,

y'all, that's y'all's issue.

- It's not--

- Y'all subject y'all selves to her.

- And I'm done defending her.

- Right now, I'm feeling like the toxicity

is so much and it's affecting everyone

in the competition and including me.

- I feel like we would have her back

if she didn't act like that.

- Exactly.

- No, I know that if she walks through that door right now,

she's gonna walk in here and say the same thing

as she did last time.

She's gonna say, "I prepared an apology for each

and every one of you and I'm just gonna change from here".

- And then it goes-- - And then it goes right back.

- [HoSo] And it has happened a couple times now.

- It feels like it was pretty much the same

as our season on season two.

It just hasn't changed much

even though she seems like she's acting genuine.

I don't know, I see right through it.

- So what do you think is gonna happen this week?

- There are just literally like curve balls

being thrown at us left and right.

- Like the curve ball is the default setting

in this competition, you know what I'm saying?

- It's just--

- 'Sup, cookies!

- Hello.

- Oh, okay.

- It's me.

What? What?

No one's happy to see me? That I'm back?

- No, we're actually a little annoyed by you, girl.

- Very.

- Yeah, I am really embarrassed by how I reacted.

I hope we can move past this.

- It's more of like a put up and shut up type of moment.

We just, nobody wants you around anymore

because you are putting yourself in this place.

- I can deal with sadness.

What I can't deal with is the maliciousness.

- I'm ready to just focus on this competition

and have fun again, I don't want to be sad anymore.

- Imma say this, I don't hate you,

but I can't help but notice this pattern here

and I'm not here for it, like--

- [Abhora] Well all I'm gonna say to that is

that I had a heavy pattern of drinking and I broke that.

So I am trying, I am working on it.

- Proud of you. I understand everyone's healing journey,

but that should not distract and or complicate

or take away from mine--

- Actions speak much louder than words.

This has been the every single, I think verbatim,

every single time you give the same answer

and you can say it,

but none of these faces are gonna change

unless actions are being shown.

- I agree.

Let me get a chance to show it.

- We gave you last week. - Go ahead.

- And the week before that.

- As Kendra said to me,

every new day is a blank slate.

I'm gonna take that to heart.

It's the fairest thing I can do for her.

Since she's not allowed to continue on

with this sisterhood and have fun.

I have fun in me.

- [Koco] Can you, without bringing down someone else?

- I am absolutely prepared to do that?

- Are you prepared or are you going to go?

Girl, I don't even think Abhora believed that apology

so why in the hell would I?

- Just keep in mind that trust has been broken.

- Yes.

- And for me, I know many other people here that trust

can be very, very difficult to rebuild

and it's gonna take-- - It's not impossible.

- More and more and more and more and more work from you.

- I know.

I don't think it's fair that I'm the only one

who has to work on my attitude, but I'll do it.

- Y'all might start a clean slate every day,

but I remember the last week and the week before that.

Every time she finds herself in this situation,

she has somebody to back her, period.

- I'm not here to back her.

- I think we know who Koco's talking about.

- Yeah, no, it's me.

- It's not even just you.

- I feel like you're talking about me as well.

But let me just tell you if you think that

I wouldn't do the shit same for you, Koco,

you have another thing coming.

- Honestly, Abhora, I could give two shits

about your apology.

You said what you said at the cauldron,

that was fucked up.

I want Abhora to go home.

I'm already at this point I am so over her.

I want that bitch to go home

like it's time to pack up.

I'm here to win my 100,000 fucking dollars

and that's on period.

- Well, it's gonna be a fun new week.

We're all gonna have fun, fun, fun, fun all the time.

(dramatic music) (Abhora screams)

- Here we go again. - Speaking of fun.

- [Swanthula] Attention competitors.

Attention competitors.

Please make your way to the main stage at this time.

(thunder cracking)

(dramatic music)

(thunder clapping)

(contestants cheering and clapping)

- Attention all thrill seeking orcs,

goblins, elves, and gnomes.

It's time to raise your swords, prepare your spells,

and answer the call to adventure

for this week's "Dungeons and Drag Queens

Level Two: The Underdark" challenge.

(contestants squealing)

- For this floorshow,

we're going to teleport your drag characters

to a realm of sword and sorcery.

And you must create a fantasy look inspired by wizards,

barbarians, warlocks, and elves.

And then model your looks live

on location at the renaissance faire village.

(contestants cheering)

- Yes.

- As a second part to your challenge,

you'll be split up into two teams

and will to memorize

and act out a live action role playing adventure

in our underdark maze.

- The what?

(Swanthula laughing)

- Since you failed your saving throws,

you will not be able to choose your own class

or race for this adventure.

(dramatic music)

Instead as your dungeon masters,

we will be rolling our own 20 sided die

and will determine

which race and class your characters will be.

And you must base your look

on whatever fate chooses for you.

Now let's begin.

- Abhora: dark elf druid.

- Druid?

- Victoria: elf priestess.

Koco: elf barbarian.

Erika: gnome rogue.

Astrud:

human bard.

(contestants jeering)

- Why?

- Evah: human paladin.

- ...okay.

- HoSo: dark elf ranger.

- Dark elf! Fuck yeah!

- Melissa: human barbarian.

- Bitch! Yeah!

- How exciting.

Now, before you begin smithing your armor

and memorizing your incantations,

there is still the detail of what you have to do

for this week's Fright Feat.

- For this Fright Feat,

you will be engaging in a good old-fashioned

"tug of gore" competition.

You'll be split into two teams,

taken to a special location,

and be placed on either side of a gigantic pit of gore.

Your teams will then be handed either end of a rope

and your group must use their strength

to pull the other group forward and into the pit of gore.

Whichever team pulls the other in,

will win the Fright Feat

and will have the ability to choose which script

their team will have to act out in the role-playing segment.

And believe us, these scripts were not created equal.

- Your dungeon masters have chosen teams

based on what we felt would be the most unfair and dramatic.

(Swanthula laughs)

So what are you waiting for?

Fly you fools and make haste for the pit of gore

where your adventure awaits.

But remember, if you prove to be a noob and wipe your team,

you'll be yanked, face melted

and corpse camped from all of eternity.

- Good luck my little goblins.

(Swanthula and Dracmorda cackling)

(dramatic music)

(ominous music)

(thunder clapping)

(dramatic music)

- The Fright Feat this week is not "Tug of War"

but "Tug of Gore"

where we have to pull the other team into a moat of blood.

- The pit is fuckin' nasty.

It's just the dirtiest, murky mud water,

I think there's flies flying around it.

Girl, I don't know what the fuck they put in this water,

but it's not gonna be me gettin' in it.

- We've got Evah, Koco...

Hoso...

We're pretty balanced.

I'm feeling confident,

especially with Melissa being as butch as she is.

I think we're safe in this.

- I see a bunch of wenches over there.

- Oh fuck off.

- Look how hot our team is.

- I'm looking over

and Astrud has this shit-eating grin on her face

and I literally just want to drag her in that water

and wipe it right off her face.

You guys are going fucking down.

- Hope you brought your swimsuit, bitch.

- I didn't but I brought your casket.

- Astrud already has a punchable face

but I've never wanted to punch

that bitch's face more than right now.

- You know what?

Best of luck, best of luck to you.

- Perfect.

- Yeah, you're gonna be great.

(dramatic music)

(horn blaring)

(dramatic music)

- [Abhora] Ah!

- Yes!

- [Koco] Come on, bitches!

- Abhora's in.

Abhora's in.

Come on.

- Yes, bitches, come on.

(dramatic music)

- Hold on.

- [Erika] Yes, bitches, come on.

(dramatic music)

- Come on!

(dramatic music crescendos)

(water splashing) (horn blaring)

(contestants cheering)

(water splashing)

- What did I tell you, bitches?

- [Evah] Fuck you.

- Yes!

It's all in the boots.

(dramatic music)

(whimsical music)

- [Erika] Woo!

- [Melissa] All right, y'all, we fucking did it!

- [Erika] We are so sickening.

- It feels so good to be dry.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, shut up, shut up.

So the other team won,

Melissa, Victoria, Erika, and Assturd

and they get the lovely power to be able

to decide who gets which script for this acting challenge.

- So we have the "quest" script and the "cursed" script.

The quest script is regular

and then the cursed script is cursed and backwards.

- I will say I think that the cursed script

is actually more interesting.

- [Erika] It is interesting.

- I'm down to go with whatever you guys want

because we're a team here and I'm a team player.

- [Erika] Victoria, what do you think darling?

- I'm thinking the quest script as well.

Mostly 'cause -- - It's safe.

- I feel like we'll trip up less.

- Okay, is that a concern for you?

- Yes, more so 'cause the tongue twisting and just--

- Yeah. - Yeah, cool.

- The quest script seems a lot easier

and I think we could pull it off a lot easier.

- The same thing too, my English is my second language

so I think I'm gonna have a hard time getting those words.

- Yeah, it's complicated.

- Then I think this, I think the better strategy

is for us is to pick the quest script.

- Yeah.

- Oh no.

- Oh darn.

- We didn't get the quest script, y'all.

- I actually wanted the cursed script

'cause I find in situations like these

the more challenging dialogue has a lot more energy.

- In the end we chose the quest script

because we really just wanted

to make the best strategic choice for our team.

- Does anybody actually know how to play D&D?

- I've never played Dungeons and Dragons,

but I know Astrud is gonna be the one

to be like "I know, I know about that game",

I already see it coming.

- So the basic setup is you've got a dungeon master

and you've got a party, right?

So everybody has to build a character sheet.

And you so many classes that choose from

and each of those classes has different specializations.

Like for example,

the rogue can go into either

like an assassin style archetype

or they can be an arcane trickster.

So you have these dice, right?

You've got a D20, you've got D12.

I'm a bard for example and I fuckin' love bards.

I feel like everybody gets a lot of opportunity

to take their character where they want.

Like say I'm walking into a tavern

and I want to woo the bar staff

so they give me a free drink, right?

D&D is the originator, it is the like...

I just think it's such a wonderful way

to bond with your friends.

Here's the hard thing about D&D.

So I've been in multiple D&D campaigns.

It's really difficult to get people to commit to a campaign.

It gives me everything that I want

out of a social experience.

10 year long campaign, that's the dream.

And that is why I love D&D.

- Just shut the fuck up!!!

See this is what I'm talkin' about.

- Well I might not know everything there is to know

about Dungeons and Dragons,

but what I do know is how to act.

And I feel like before we go into an acting challenge,

we should probably get a little warmed up.

- It's a performance competition.

- As a trained thespian,

since I won my acting challenge on my season,

I feel like it is my professional duty to warm everyone up.

- What the fuck is a thespian? Theatre lesbian?

I don't fucking know.

- Keep those plates balanced.

Just like that, fierce, fun, and fresh

good way to stay in shape.

- My balls will pop out, bitch.

- There, yes.

- Okay and this is for diction.

You want to be able to understand

what your partners are saying in the scene.

- I love big dicks.

- Astrud knows a lot about Dungeons and Dragons.

- Evah's really like, she's trying to lead,

she wants to be the dungeon master so bad

and I'm just gonna give it to her.

It's a hard role to play the dungeon master,

a lot of pressure.

- I'm going to be throwing you a ball of a certain weight.

So if I toss Koco a bowling ball.

(Evah grunts)

(Koco falling)

(Koco grunts)

Exactly, you have to pretend that's what you're catching.

- [Astrud] Hey, girl, your ball's out.

- Bitch, that bowling ball was heavy.

That was a lot, my arms.

(Abhora exclaims)

(Evah laughing)

- Genius.

- All right.

(Abhora gargling)

(contestants grunting)

(contestants humming)

- This is the most fun I've had all day.

- I think now I know the reason why theater gays

are hated across the universe.

- Just follow, yeah, just follow what I'm doing.

Round here.

(contestants whooping)

(Astrud laughing)

- [Melissa] I can't stand you.

- I was gonna go for it, girl.

- Ka, ka, ka, kack.

Ka, ka, ka, ka kack.

Ka, ka, ka, ka, kack.

(contestants laughing)

- Now that we are warmed up, it is time to rehearse.

- [Melissa] Oh let's get to it.

- And scene.

I mean at the end of the day I know for a fact

that as best as they tried,

they're not like, they're not that well experienced

at some of this stuff.

- [Abhora] But let's not get too sure of ourselves.

- I'm not being too sure of myself.

It's just I understand that like

this is like an acting challenge.

But I also know that some of us are taking this

a little more seriously than others.

- And then she learns later in her life

that she actually is part of royalty.

So she gets taken back into the royal family

but is still like a swash-buckling like, fucking slut.

- I know that we've got a fuckin' badass group

regardless if we won the Fright Feat or not.

- The first readthrough with my team was great.

Like we were finding our pace

and we were gettin' it together.

I'm super excited to continue with this challenge.

- Honestly I zoned them out

so I really don't know how they did it.

- Hello? Hi.

- Doing you are what?

Yeah, I like that, very that.

- The other team's read through went fine.

Yeah, they're working their way around all that text.

So good for them.

- Evah, HoSo, Koco, Me.

- Hi, Abhora. - Hey.

- You wanna step aside and--

- Actually, actually I'd love to if you want to

I'll be right back you guys.

- [Evah] All right.

- Wow, okay, so Melissa's gonna take me out back

and beat the crap outta me.

- All right Miss Abhora.

So I'm gonna be quite honest with you.

I feel like everyone's on you and like

really over you 'cause of the way you've been acting.

You can't blame them.

But also too, I feel bad

because like I feel like you're standing by yourself.

I know I said in the boudoir

that I didn't give two shits about your apology.

But I mean I do 'cause I care about you.

I think I'm very respectful to you

but I think what you said to me was kind of

like hurtful to me in a way

because that kind of brought me a lot of flashbacks.

You know growing up in a very homophobic high school.

Like I will always hear straight people telling me,

"Oh I hope I don't see you when you when we're outta school

'cause I'm gonna fuck you up 'cause you're a faggot".

- Oh shit. - You know what I mean?

So when you said that,

I was like what the fuck, kind of got me off guard.

- I really didn't mean it to sound

as much of a threat as it actually came out.

I just wanted to kind of show you specifically

that I have the fire to do absolutely everything

that it takes to stay.

- I want you to keep your head in the game

and like I know that you're sober.

You know I'm sober, I recently got sober too.

Yeah, and it's because I was choosing the wrong decisions.

Sometimes I didn't even know myself,

you know. - It's scary.

I was actually dreading talking to you

'cause I just felt like I had said such awful things

that I wouldn't blame you in the least

if you never wanted to talk to me again.

So this is a huge relief.

So you're way more awesome than I already thought you were.

- You are too, bitch.

- I don't know how to make it up to everyone.

I just, I don't, I don't know what to do.

- Trust is, it's not given, it's earned.

So I think little by little

you're gonna have to get that trust from everyone.

- I can't keep saying sorry.

I need to show them that I am sorry and change.

- Everyone in the group fucking admires you.

Like we just have to understand

that, bitch, we're in a fucking competition for $100,000.

- Yeah, the stakes are high.

- I'm here and if you need someone to stand behind you

and catch you when you fall,

I'm gonna be there in your corner to help you out

whatever you need me to help you with, we good?

- Yeah, yeah.

(Melissa chuckling)

- Come here, bitch. - Thank you.

- I know I may come across as a bitch

or as a strong person

but if someone needs my help

I'm definitely gonna be there for them.

- [Abhora] Come on. You fucking suck, bitch.

(Abhora laughing)

I fucking hate you.

(Melissa and Abhora laughing)

(dramatic music)

- So my race and class is gnome rogue

and I'm going for a deep gnome

because my character is a mining thief,

I thought that it would be cool to use a pickax

to sort of like turn what's a, you know,

a useful tool into something

that can be really murderous and dark.

So I'm just basically accentuating the blood stains

on the pickax here with some red stones

just to give that little bit of sparkle.

- My race and class is black and questionable.

I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

My race and class is barbarian elf.

I am using bamboo skewers to create a edgy stabby pointy

"fuck around and find out" kind of look.

My character is based off of a lot of

the stronger, badder bitches of the video game realm.

Some people like to kill,

I like to overkill so every inch of this can hurt me

and probably somebody else too.

That's the goal.

Making things outta scraps is important to me

because it keeps you on your toes, it keeps you guessing.

A person that can find scrap on the street and make it art

is a person that can take what life throws at them

and roll with the punches and make the best of it.

- So my race and class is dark elf ranger.

I think dark elf is such like

a mystical and interesting race.

So I am personally really fucking glad with this choice.

I currently am painting this armor piece that I made.

To make the texture on top really gross and stone-like,

I used liquid latex and these magical incantations

that I'm carving into are written in Korean, actually

I always like to incorporate Korean into like

such western themes like D&D,

I think it's gonna turn out really interesting.

- So for D&D, I was assigned human paladin.

My paladin in particular

is based around a lot of the knights

that you see whether they're in video games

or any sort of like pop culture.

And I'm going for a very clean,

gorgeous silhouette that's big, bulky but very like me.

I am currently sculpting foam clay.

Right now, I'm working on this jewel setting

on one of my shoulder pieces and yeah,

I'm just like carving into it so I can paint it later.

- All right everybody,

let's bust out our D20s

because we need to roll for initiative

and also roll the hell outta here

because we have some rehearsals.

- Yes, ma'am. - Let's out roll out.

- [Erika] Let's get out.

- [Astrud] I think my script is gone.

(Astrud laughing)

(dramatic music)

(clock ticking)

(mechanism whirring)

(liquid bubbling)

(Boulet Brothers laughing)

- [Melissa] Bitch!

- [Abhora] Dungeons and dragons, dungeons--

- It's D&D day, y'all!

- [Koco] Huzzah!

- It is a new day in ye, thine,

girl, that's Astrud's shit, let her do that.

- It is a new day.

I have my adventuring supplies ready and at hand

and tonight we will delve into the underdark

and face our greatest demons.

Huzzah!

- I'm feeling pretty good.

I'm excited for what our team's gonna do.

We've been practicing

and I think it's gonna come together lovely.

And we look very cohesive just by chance, I didn't--

- [Abhora] Oh so you're the pussycat doll.

- Wait, now go.

(contestants laughing)

- The only person I am really worried about is Victoria.

That bitch is fucking up her lines

and I think she's like holding us back a lot.

- Everyone, if you look right out those windows,

you'll see the exact place that Maddelynn Hatter

had her famous tantrum.

"Fuck the picture, Clint!"

- "You're gonna make me look like an idiot!"

Are you fucking kidding me?

Kidding me, kidding me.

(upbeat techno music)

(bell chiming)

- [Abhora] Oh shit!

(contestants groaning and talking over one another)

- [Swanthula] Attention competitors.

Attention competitors.

Please make your way to the main stage at this time.

- Shit.

- [Swanthula] Once again.

- God dammit.

- [Swanthula] Competitors, please make your way

to the main stage at this time.

- [Astrud] What am I supposed to do?

(thunder clapping)

(dramatic music)

(dramatic music intensifies)

♪ "Boulet Brothers Entrance Theme" ♪

(music screeching)

- Welcome my little goblins to tonight's quest.

- This week we've challenged our heroes to transform

themselves into warriors of might and magic

in our Dungeons and Drag Queens adventure campaign:

"Into the Underdark".

- Once transformed,

our champions must use their acting skills to perform

scripted scenes of treachery and triumph

in a directed cinematic short on location

in our underdark labyrinth.

Whichever band of adventurers delivers

the best onscreen performance

will be awarded all the treasure

and will win the challenge.

- Here to help us judge tonight's campaign is actor,

activist, and returning judge the magical, Misha Osherovich.

Misha, my little morsel, you have returned

and the Gods shine upon us.

Thank you for being here.

- Well I don't know about God, I'm pretty demonic,

but (clicks tongue) you're welcome.

(Swanthula laughs)

- And our next judge is the star of

Netflix's "Locke and Key", "The Tomorrow War"

and "Queer As Folk", the noble, Mr. Eric Graise.

Eric, welcome to our dungeon

and thank you so much for being here.

- I just rolled a nat 20 on insight

so these queens better be ready for this critique.

- Huzzah, the drums of adventure have begun to sound.

- That means it's time to peer into our magic mirror,

- Roll for initiative,

- And let the campaign begin!

- Where are we?

What is this unholy place?

- It seems both strange yet... familiar.

- No, you not know what this is?

This is the land of darkness.

- Okay, but how?

What wicked enchantment brought us here?

Certainly we didn't drink that much at the tavern.

- What's that?

(dramatic music)

(paper rustling)

- "In this maze of shadows where the dead crave living flesh

survival is afforded to the most clever, cunning best.

But should you reach the daylight, do not assume you thrive.

Returning to the land of the living

does not mean you'll stay alive."

- [Astrud] What the hell does that mean?

- The scroll mentions daylight.

So it means there's the way out of here.

- Yes but what dangers lurk between us and the outside.

(monsters screeching)

- Okay, well I don't like the sound of that

and I certainly don't wanna walk towards it.

- If this means we escape this hell

we must try and we must try together.

- Then I suggest we wait no longer.

(monsters groaning)

(door creaking)

(monsters groaning)

(chains clanking)

- Stay close, we know not what terrors wait in the dark.

- Or amongst each other.

- What do you mean by that?

- We woke up in this place with no recollection

of how we arrived.

How do I know that it is not one of you

that brought us here?

- What could one of us have to gain

from all of us being down here?

- Now is not the time to be making accusations.

(monster groaning)

- Do you hear that? Something approaches we must make haste.

- I say we go nowhere until we know the truth!

- Are you mad?

Death could be approaching us this instant!

- Death is already amongst us.

(sword scrapes)

- Let us pass.

- Think carefully.

Do not start something you're not prepared to finish.

- What's about to happen already started

by whoever brought us here.

- How do you not know we weren't

merely brought here by a curse?

- Betrayal is a curse,

one of us brought the rest of us here to die!

- And you expect that person to reveal themselves to us now?

- No, that's why we should fend for ourselves.

(Erika groans)

(flesh tearing) (Erika gasps)

(flesh tearing)

(blood squelching) (Erika groans)

- (panting) What have you done?

- What I had to! In the quest of glory,

Even our companions could be our worst competition.

(monsters groaning)

(Astrud and Victoria groaning)

(Melissa screaming)

(Melissa's screams intensify)

- Shall we carry on?

- How do we know we can trust each other?

(muffled screams from Melissa)

- We don't.

(Melissa's screams continue)

(monster groans)

(dramatic music)

(chain rattling) (feet pounding)

- Stay close, everyone.

The scent of inhuman beast is thick in the air

and we don't know what dangers lurk within this labyrinth.

- Or what unholy evils.

We best not touch anything.

Such an unholy place could be full of traps

or worse, bewitchments.

- And who gave you two the right to be barking orders?

I don't recall electing a leader.

- Let's not make any hasty decisions.

Yes there might be traps, but there also might be riches.

- Don't touch that.

- I say let them do it.

If there are treasures to be had in the underdark,

I doubt anything down here will miss it.

- It's not wise to steal from the houses of the dead.

- There's something in here, it's just stuck.

I've almost have it.

(dramatic music)

- That the hell was what?

- That way talking you are why?

- Speech of curse of box is it.

Fault yours is this!

- Doing you are what?

- Curse the release and box the open you.

(HoSo hissing)

(Koco speaking gibberish)

- Ah, weapons back up words (speaking gibberish)

(Koco grunting)

(air rushing)

- That was what?

- Tunnels, these aren't alone, aren't we?

- Truce...

Survive together work must we.

(floorboard creaking)

(weapon bangs)

- Truce.

(monster groaning)

- Draws near beast whatever outrun we are to

if movement get to need we!

- Strengthful what are we?

Head our curses are we?

- Best we are not in right they are.

(feet pounding)

(door clicking)

(HoSo groaning)

(HoSo's body thuds)

I knew you could not be trusted!

- You killed your friend, why?

- Do you not hear yourselves?

You no longer speak in twisted tongue.

(monster groaning)

- It's true. - But how?

- Sometimes to lift a curse

you gotta end the one who brought it.

- Oh, okay.

How do we know that you won't turn around

and stab us in the back?

- You don't.

But for now we have a meal for the beast

rapidly approaching on our heels.

(monster groaning)

- Come let us linger here no longer.

(Abhora roaring)

(dramatic music)

(HoSo coughing)

(blood squelching) (HoSo groaning)

- Sorry, girl.

(beast groaning)

- [Crew Member] Let's cut, we need to get Evah outside.

(Evah breathing heavily)

- [Evah] I'm feeling so fucking overwhelmed

right now, this is so hard for me to like catch up,

even with myself.

- [Crew Member] It gets easier.

- I totally believe that too. - It does.

- I totally believe that. - This is the hardest episode.

- 1000%.

(Evah groaning)

So during the acting challenge

I started to feel how hot it was.

I just started becoming super overwhelmed.

I got really anxious and I started to panic.

- [Abhora] Evah's having a moment.

- [HoSo] Like what kind of moment?

- [Abhora] She's frustrated with herself.

- There's just a number of things

like just claustrophobia, heat, like the costume.

- [HoSo] Damn, they're filming Evah,

this is gonna be a thing.

- [Abhora] You good, diva? Yeah?

- It was just a lot all at once. That's that's all.

I'm not having a moment.

- Totally understand Evah's situation with the heat.

I was right there with her.

Unfortunately, we both handled the stress

a little bit differently.

- It was just a lot all at once, that's all.

- C'mon, Evah.

(paper rustling)

God damn, they're filming it.

- I think Evah just got into her head.

She made this a very important challenge for herself

and she forgot to have fun.

- I'm not talking--

I got hit in the head.

I fucking bled.

I kept going, the scene must go on.

Fuck!

- [Crew Member] You okay?

- I am bleeding.

I just got scratched a little bit, I'm fine.

- I think you were too hard on yourself

and I think that's why you were choking up so much.

- But that's like, but that's what I do.

There are moments where my perfectionism kicks in,

my inner saboteur kicks in, you know and all that bullshit.

But at the time--

- You just gotta let go and let the scene flow.

- That is very easier said than done, girl.

That's very easier said than done.

(eerie music)

(air rushing)

(eerie music continues)

(dramatic music)

- So the adventure has come to an end.

Some of our characters have very few hit points left

but it's time to pass out the treasures.

- Oh my God.

- Why don't we start with the team

who got the cursed script?

- Who did better, ironically.

- Absolutely. This would be HoSo, Koco, Abhora, and Evah.

- I thought they played very well off of each other.

- I thought Evah's floorshow and her look were great.

I thought it got overshadowed negatively by her attitude

during the acting challenge.

And of all the monsters in the castle,

it was Abhora who was trying to bring Evah's morale up,

which was nice to see.

- Part of being on "Dragula"

is to do these crazy things, right?

That's what we're testing them on.

We put them in these crazy circumstances

outside in the heat, under a waterfall,

roll 'em down the beach, through the desert,

whatever and we want to see if they can still perform.

That's part of the competition.

So to me it seems strange to go on location like that

and complain the whole time.

- HoSo took that ax to the head

and was bleeding from the eye

and did the last couple of takes without one complaint.

And that says a lot.

- I thought HoSo nailed the challenge.

She didn't give us standard HoSo.

- [Swanthula] That's true.

- [Dracmorda] She gave us a full character.

- And I thought Koco was phenomenal.

Her look was spot on and the acting was fantastic.

- They really embodied a barbarian.

- A really body ody ody barbarian.

- But they didn't go like classic kind of barbarian

like I felt like it was more like Amazonian barbarian.

- Which was fun.

- Yeah.

- So let's talk about the team that chose the quest script.

- Unfortunately they kind of felt flat.

They were all forgetting their lines.

Victoria being the worst of them all.

- Every take, Victoria missed the line.

- Well waiting here would only...wait... I'm so sorry, line?

As well, I completely flipped that... line?

Can I do that one more time?

- [Crew Member] Yeah sure.

- My god, I'm so sorry.

- I don't think Victoria could remember any of the lines.

I will say I think Melissa did a good job.

- She looked incredible.

She was giving us Melissa Befierce

times a thousand and it was great.

I think if Melissa had gotten on a team

in a different group,

she could have really excelled

and placed very high in this challenge.

- Yeah, unfortunately she was with that group

and I think that is going to probably

land her in the bottom.

- So let's move over to Astrud.

I think the look was clearly a bard

but we weren't breaking any new grounds here.

And the director told me something kind of interesting too

that Astrud would sort of

be a little bit difficult to work with

and try to give direction to the director.

No one likes that on set.

- We are watching everything while you're here.

We're looking to crown a winner

who is not only a great drag artist

but someone that can go on set

and perform in front of a camera

and not whine about it.

Let's talk about Erika.

Erika is not having fun.

Erica seems very angry

and off-centered the whole season to me.

- I agree, and you know what?

That could translate to some looks

but you can't be a pissed off gnome.

- Just walking around the ren faire,

grumping around like a grumpy gnome.

- I feel like they're so focused on winning

and so focused on the competition

that they're losing sight of the fun

and the experience and the now.

- It's not the Erika that I remember from season two,

Erika in season two was very fun.

This time she just seems pissed.

- I thought Erika gave energy during the acting challenge,

however it was the look that was her undoing.

- The truth is I love everyone that we cast

and I don't wanna give any of them negative critiques.

It's very hard.

It'd be different if we didn't know them

but you know, gonna see 'em again after this, so.

(Dracmorda giggles)

- Well Drac, I think our council is over.

It's time we bring in the other dungeon masters

and let judgment begin.

(eerie music)

(bell tolling)

(dramatic techno music)

- Welcome back to the safety of the castle

and congratulations on surviving

our dungeons and drag queens challenge.

- As always, I wanna remind you

that we are not here to judge your character sheets.

Role playing is art and art is subjective.

What we are judging you on is your drag

as it relates to a six-sided die

and the challenges that we have put before you.

- Now you were given a group acting challenge on location.

Of course we will take

your individual looks into consideration,

but tonight you will first be judged as a group.

The band of adventurers who performed the best

in our dungeons and drag queens campaign is...

Abhora, Evah, HoSo, and Koco.

(contestants screaming)

- I'm so fucking gagged right now, honestly.

- Despite the circumstances, our team made it work.

We communicated with each other,

we supported each other

through like a really tough environment

and I thought we deserved it.

- This week, I really did my best

to uplift everyone's spirits

and I really hope that that's what brought us

through to the victory.

- Abhora and Evah... you made your saving throws

and you are safe.

And the two heroes of the group are HoSo and Koco.

And we'd like to talk about why.

- Let's start with HoSo.

- I am absolutely obsessed with this look.

- Hey.

- It's honestly beyond drag for me.

I could see you in a movie,

I could see you in so many different spaces.

So kudos to you.

- Thank you so much.

- I too have been sliced on the forehead

during the shooting of a horror film.

- Oh my God.

- But I committed,

I played the scene that is exactly the take they used

and you did the same and that is very impressive to me.

- You knocked it out the park with this look.

I'm especially in love with this little top knot hairdo.

- Oh it's so good, I love it too.

- I was really impressed with you

in the acting challenge as well.

You became a different person completely

and it was fantastic.

- I'm really glad you liked my top knot

because last time I wore a top knot on "Dragula",

I was in the bottom for it, so.

- Well, it was a little smaller.

(HoSo chuckling)

- You were the deadliest dark elf in the woods.

I really appreciated a lot of the runic details

that you brought to the armor 'cause it wasn't just dark

but there was also some magic kind of imbued into it.

It set my imagination aflame and it impressed me.

- Thank you so much.

- Moving on to Koco.

- Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

The way that I screamed when I saw this look,

I cannot even tell you.

Even the weaponry is probably something

you could use in real life

and actually maim somebody with.

- Oh, it did, I bled. - It did.

Sorry, girl.

- And honestly, if we were in a D&D campaign,

you would more than likely be one of my favorite characters.

- I genuinely appreciated that you went for the comedy.

That's not the obvious choice in a horror fantasy world.

So bravo for making that choice and taking that risk.

- Koco, I love the look.

The savage barbarian brought to life with proportions

that we've grown to expect only from Koco Caine.

All of the details of the look

combined with that risk on the performance, for me sold it.

I thought you were incredible.

- Thank you.

- Koco the barbarian.

I could see a movie.

(Dracmorda and Koko chuckling)

I mean, what can I say?

I think your look is fantastic.

Your acting challenge was great.

Your individual floorshow was also great, so job well done.

- Thank you. (speaking in gibberish)

(contestants laughing)

- Koco's look is insane.

That axe alone puts her in really,

really, really good standing.

- Only one of you can win

our dungeons and drag queens campaign.

And the adventurer who landed the killing blow

and will receive all of the treasures is...

(dramatic music)

Koco Caine.

- [HoSo] Yes!

(contestants cheering) - Work, bitch, work!

- I am so fucking excited I finally won a challenge

and I hope the girls take this as a warning

'cause I'm not here to play.

- Koco, darling, congratulations to you and your whole team.

Your party may leave the stage

and head of the tavern where mead and merriment await.

- Thank you.

Astrud's team might have taken the tug of gore,

but look whose team won the acting challenge.

- Now, let's talk about our not so fortunate

band of adventurers, Melissa.

- This is a drag competition.

We're not expecting you to take to an acting challenge

and deliver lines like an award-winning actor.

However, you were spirited and you were excited to be there.

There was a vitality and your energy

and attitude was correct.

- Melissa, I think your floorshow

was really strong this week.

You jumped in that creek, you were ferocious.

I think it was great.

Also in the acting challenge, you memorized the script

and you delivered it with passion.

You did a great job.

- Thank you, thank you.

- When you're doing a line of dialogue or a physical action,

especially something violent,

you have to commit all the way through.

You had such good energy,

I wanted to see that carry through to the end of the line,

the end of the sword swing.

And you were so goddamn close

and honestly so enjoyable to watch

that I honestly didn't even care, but things to think about.

- Gotcha, thank you. - Yeah.

- Should we do a line of dialogue after the show?

- I mean if you want, I'm sober now though.

(judges laughing)

- Had it not been for my team, I would've been on the top.

- Moving on to Victoria.

- I didn't really understand who this character was.

Is she regal? Is she enslaved?

Inbuing a little bit more of that characterization,

would that taken you over the edge.

- Fair enough, thank you so much.

- Victoria, this look is definitely giving

high elf realness, you did a great job with it.

You're showing us a lot of variety this season,

which I appreciate.

Obviously you fumbled your line,

that was a problem but the look was great.

- Thank you so much.

- I'm the actor so I'm always gonna be this bitch

but like I saw you thinking

as opposed to just trusting and diving in.

Bringing that sort of confidence back is kind of important,

especially in a fantasy horror like this.

- This may sound harsh but I do believe it fully,

you were a liability to your team

because almost every take you didn't have your line.

- Wait, I'm so sorry, line?

- It became frustrating for me watching

and I'm sure it was frustrating for the rest of the team.

- Yeah, understandable.

- Our team definitely did struggle

but not as much as Victoria

struggled with the lines.

- Line?

- Let's talk about Erika.

- Honestly, I was just really conflicted

because I really do love a playful character

but I think some of the costume elements

kind of took me out of the fantasy.

So when I see the boots that remind me of hot topic boots

and the glove that remind me of biker gloves,

those sort of things take me out of it

I think a little bit.

- I didn't actually quite mind

that maybe it wasn't like a perfect like rendering

of a fantasy character

because you had a point of view and an opinion.

I do wish you kind of brought that point of view

more to life in your performance.

I felt a little bit like you were limiting yourself.

- Thank you.

- I feel like the look just wasn't up to the standard

that the other competitors are bringing tonight.

Some of the imperfections

in the makeup and stuff behind your ear

were showing up on camera,

which is something you have to look out for

when you're filming.

But I think you had a lot of fun details in it.

- Outside of judging, just between me and you

as people right now,

I want you to take a deep breath in and a deep breath out

because I feel like you have been hard at work

and hard on yourself.

Like smile, have fun.

You're a fucking gnome with gems all over you.

I hope you can find the joy in this experience

'cause when you look back you won't say,

"uw I wish I stressed more".

I hope I can impart that onto you

because I've looked back on myself in previous seasons

and said those exact same things to me five years ago.

- Yeah I could be having more fun

but then what if that causes me to be complacent?

What would be fun for me is to win a challenge

or to like do well and actually feel like

this experience was a little different.

- I just feel like Erika's being too laser-focused

I want her to snap out of it to be honest.

I want her to have fun.

- And last but not least, Astrud.

- I'm a little biased, when I play D&D I play the bard.

- Oh.

- I think as far as character wise goes,

your character was the one

I was most wanting to get invested in.

I think that you held the group down in a lot of great ways.

- Thank you so much,

that's wonderful to hear, appreciate you.

- I can unashamedly say

that this is probably my favorite look of the bunch.

I buy it, I just do.

Your attitude sits well in what you're wearing, so bravo.

- Thank you, wow, thank you.

- I also can appreciate the authenticity of the fabrics,

the shape, the antiquity that this instrument.

I mean what is that?

- So this is a dulcimer,

it's from the lute family of instruments,

but I actually re-tuned it

to sound a little bit more medieval

because traditionally it's from the Appalachian region.

So it has that sort of like folk sound to it.

But I changed it to like a dark,

like almost like a Phrygian mode.

(relaxing dulcimer music)

- I knew I heard Phrygian mode.

(Astrud laughs)

I know that when I hear it.

Were we breaking ground when it comes to bards?

In my mind, probably not, but I think overall it was solid.

- Thank you.

I feel like I really nailed this challenge.

Like I even played a real fucking lute.

I think the only reason I'm not in the top right now

is because of my team, probably, possibly.

- I did get some info from the director

that he felt you were sort of pushing back on him at time.

- Oh.

- The words were trying to direct the director.

- [Astrud] Oh no.

- [Swanthula] Which is never really a good thing.

- Yeah, I have a little bit of

an abrasive personality sometimes on accident,

but I definitely never met to take control

in any kind of way.

I never meant to come off as argumentative

but we know my personality, so oops.

- Most definitely I'd mad at Astrud.

Like her mouth is gonna fuckin'

take us down the motherfuckin' drain.

- Melissa, you rose to the challenge

and had it not been for your team,

your floorshow would've landed you among the top.

You are safe and may leave the stage.

- Thank you.

- Erika, the judges felt your look lacked polish

and craftsmanship this week

and you are up for elimination.

Victoria, your difficulty with the script

in the acting challenge landed you in the bottom

but your individual floorshow wasn't enough to save you.

You are also up for elimination.

- I never thought I'd be in the bottom,

I'm genuinely concerned.

- Astrud, your bard looks sang and we enjoyed the tune.

You are safe and may leave the stage.

- Thank you so much.

- Victoria and Erika,

we're going to release you to the Cauldron,

and we'll call you back to the stage

once we have reached our final determination.

(dramatic music)

(Abhora cheering)

- Our team won.

I'm not surprised but it's really, it feels good.

It feels good.

It just, it feels right.

- Victoria, Erika, how are you guys feeling?

- I just feel disappointed in myself

for not pulling through for the team.

- I don't believe that Victoria let her team down.

Acting's not her strong suit

because... acting is believing.

Line? Line?

- I just feel like I didn't go as hard as I could have.

- This is one challenge

'cause there's so many wonderful things

that you are incredible at.

- Right.

- So you have all these things that so many people

like would die to have?

- Budget's one of them.

(contestants laughing)

- This might be our only chance to get Victoria

out of the competition and that very evil,

horrible person inside of me very deep down

kind of wants it to happen and don't kill me.

- I've been just playing this game

as hard as I fucking possibly can.

- Don't be hard on yourself, girl.

And whatever the outcome is, you are on "Titans", bitch,

this is the best of the fucking best.

Take this opportunity and like, bitch, go with it.

- I haven't reached the goal that I came here to reach.

This experience has been amazing,

but I just spent so much time focusing

that I just wasn't being as present

as maybe I could have been.

And that's just a lesson learned.

Sucks, it just sucks.

- I feel like Erika needs to kind of chill.

She's taking everything way too seriously

and I literally just wanna shake her and say, have fun.

Let me talk to you over here.

- But, but, you're next week--

- I know I'm gonna stay

because between my track record and knowing what I could do,

I just feel like I can really blow this shit out the water

if I just keep going.

Being in the bottom has really put a fire under my ass.

So when I'm back, I'm gonna be here to kill.

This is gonna push me way farther than ever before.

So you all really need to watch out for Victoria.

Like she's gonna kill them.

- I can only hope Victoria don't come back with a vengeance

'cause that's the last thing

we need in this damn competition.

- [Astrud] Absolutely. 100%.

And you have come back and proven that with 10,000 times.

- [Victoria] I love you so much.

- I don't want Victoria to get down on herself.

I mean we all can't be thespians, but I mean girl,

you did kind of suck in the acting challenge, but it's okay.

Some challenges just aren't for everybody.

I mean, look at Astrud, she has yet to win any.

- If this was my last day with all of you,

I just want all of you to know

I love you all so fucking much.

I just feel so genuine with each and every one of you

with our friendships.

- Victoria, you are good at acting.

- I'm not acting.

(contestants laughing)

- If today is my last day with you all,

just know that I did have fun with you all.

Like I was just so wanting to do my best.

It's so hard for me because I'm such a logical person.

I'm giving it my best, but my best is not good enough.

I want to to be here, but if I'm not here next week,

it's been amazing.

And you, we are never gonna waste any ounce of time

that we can be friends

because I let my own fear of disappointment,

my own fear of maybe they're doing so much better than me

that they don't even care.

I never want to do that with you again.

And we're gonna be friends after this regardless.

You know we're gonna be sitting down in hell, fucking--

(Erika and Abhora laughing)

- She knows you're going home too.

(contestants laughing)

- [Abhora] Love you, bitch.

- Oh, and also if I'm not here next week,

just lose the Fright Feat.

(contestants laughing)

(dramatic music)

(film clicking)

(dramatic music)

- Victoria and Erika, we have made our final determination.

Please ascend the Staircase of Souls

behind you to the Ghostly Gallery

where your final fate will be decided.

- There's no other words except horrifying.

I'm just thinking I might be going home.

I didn't think this could happen.

I should stay because I have way more to show

and I'm not stopping now.

- Walking the Staircase of Souls is truly dreadful.

I can feel the heat coming up from hell

and it's like waiting for you.

I feel like I know what's gonna happen

and I'm just trying to focus on all that I have done

and like all that I have to celebrate still.

- Erika... we've given your gnome

something to be happy about.

(dramatic music)

- You have been banished back to the underworld.

(dramatic music)

- Victoria, you have been spared.

For you and the rest of your fellow competitors,

the battle of the titans continues.

- Pleasant dreams, darling.

(Boulet Brothers laughing)

(dramatic music) (thunder roaring)
