Ep 3. Draggily Ever After

In RuPaul's Drag Race season 9 episode 3, titled "Draggily Ever After," the queens are challenged to bring fairy tale princesses to life on the runway. They must create an original princess character and design a fantasy look that embodies their story.

The episode starts with a mini-challenge where the queens have to lip sync for their lives in a quick drag makeover challenge. They have to transform three hunky carpenters into glamorous drag queens in just 20 minutes.

After the mini-challenge, the main challenge is announced. The queens have to create a princess character and design a unique outfit using materials found in a craft store. They have to be creative and resourceful to make their princess come alive.

The queens are given time to sketch out their ideas and then head to the craft store to gather their materials. There are some struggles and tensions as the queens jostle for the best materials, but eventually, they all manage to leave the store with what they need.

Back in the workroom, the queens start creating their looks. Some are confident and focused, while others struggle to bring their ideas to life. There are some creative concepts, including a spooky zombie princess, a sassy Diva princess, and a princess mermaid.

As the episode progresses, the queens start to get nervous about their outfits. They worry that they won't be able to finish in time or that their looks won't be good enough. Finally, they make their way to the runway, where guest judges Shay Mitchell and Chris Colfer await.

On the runway, the queens showcase their princess creations, and some are more successful than others. Some designs are simply stunning, while others fall short. The judges offer critiques, both positive and negative, and the queens get to hear what they did well and what they need to work on.

After the runway, the bottom two queens are picked, and they have to lip-sync for their lives to avoid elimination. The winner of the lip-sync stays, while the other queen is forced to "sashay away" from the competition.

Overall, "Draggily Ever After" is a fun and creative episode that showcases the queens' talents and personalities. With plenty of drama, fashion, and humor, it's a must-watch for fans of the show.
