Ep 4. RuPaulmark Channel

In RuPaul's Drag Race season 13 episode 4, titled "RuPaulmark Channel," the queens are tasked with acting in a series of Christmas movie parodies. It's a challenge that calls for creativity, comedic timing, and the ability to embody a character. The queens split into three teams to work on their movies, with each team being assigned a different holiday theme.

The first team, composed of Denali, Elliott with 2 Ts, Utica, and Olivia Lux, is given the task of creating a movie inspired by the classic holiday film It's a Wonderful Life. Each queen is tasked with playing a different character in the film, including the lead character George Bailey. The second team, consisting of Rosé, Gottmik, and Symone, is assigned the theme of A Christmas Carol. The queens work together to create a modern retelling of the story, with each queen bringing their own unique spin to their character.

The third team, made up of Kandy Muse, Tina Burner, and Tamisha Iman, is tasked with creating a parody inspired by the Hallmark channel's endless lineup of Christmas movies. The team has to come up with an original plot, characters, and setting to match the over-the-top sentimentality of Hallmark's signature Christmas movies.

As the queens work together on their respective movies, tensions begin to rise in the workroom. Kandy Muse, in particular, starts to feel like she's not getting the support she needs from her teammates. Tina Burner and Tamisha Iman are also struggling to find a way to make their movie stand out from the other teams.

On the day of the runway, the queens are given the added challenge of walking the runway in their own unique take on a fashionable Christmas look. There are some truly incredible looks on display, with queens like Symone and Gottmik delivering some of their strongest drag of the season. Michelle Visage, Ross Matthews, and Carson Kressley are all on hand to judge the queens on their acting, comedy, and runway presentation.

As the episode comes to a close, tensions are running high in the workroom as the queens prepare for the judges' critiques. The judges are honest with the queens about where they fell short, but there are also plenty of compliments to go around. In the end, one queen is declared the winner of the challenge, while another is sent home in a heartbreaking lip sync.

Overall, "RuPaulmark Channel" is a classic Drag Race challenge that allows the queens to flex their creative muscles and show off their acting chops. It's a high-stakes episode that forces the queens to work together and rely on each other's strengths, while also showing off their individual talents on the runway. It's another entertaining episode in what is shaping up to be an exciting season of the popular reality competition show.
