For the episode's mini-challenge, the contestants "read" (playfully insult) each other. Brooke Lynn Hytes wins the mini-challenge.[5]

For the main challenge, the contestants pair up and perform in an improvised comedy police sketch for the TV series Los Angeles Drag Patrol (L.A.D.P.). Following are the teams:

The runway category is "Face-Kini Fantasy". Fortune Feimster, Cheyenne Jackson, and Natasha Lyonne are guest judges. A'keria C. Davenport, Brooke Lynn Hytes, and Silky Nutmeg Ganache receive positive critiques, and A'keria C. Davenport wins the challenge. Plastique Tiara, Shuga Cain, and Vanessa Vanjie Mateo receive negative critiques, and Shuga Cain is deemed safe. Plastique Tiara and Vanessa Vanjie Mateo place in the bottom and face off in a lip-sync to "Hood Boy" (2006) by Fantasia featuring Big Boi. Vanessa Vanjie Mateo wins the lip-sync and Plastique Tiara is eliminated from the competition.
