Ep 4. Spoof! (There It Is)

In RuPaul's Drag Race season 7 episode 4 titled Spoof! (There It Is), the remaining queens are tasked with creating parody music videos of popular songs. The episode starts with the aftermath of last week's elimination and tension starts to brew between the queens. As they sit down to discuss who should have gone home, their personalities clash and drama ensues.

RuPaul then enters the workroom and introduces the mini-challenge - a game of "Conjoined Twins" where the queens are paired up and have to walk the runway while wearing a two-headed outfit. The pairs are chosen by the previous challenge winner, who gets to pick the order they walk in for the main challenge too. The winning pair is Katya and Mrs. Kasha Davis, who each get to choose their team captain for the main challenge.

RuPaul reveals the main challenge to the queens, asking them to create their own parody music videos to famous songs, with themes ranging from a roast of RuPaul herself, to a spoof of Hollywood's biggest blockbusters. The queens quickly get to work, coming up with their concepts and rehearsing their lip syncs.

On the main stage, the judges are impressed with most of the performances. Pearl and Trixie Mattel's parody of a Taylor Swift video is particularly well-received, with their comedic timing and excellent lip-syncing skills leaving the judges in stitches. Jaidynn Diore Fierce and Ginger Minj also impress with their spoof of a popular '90s boy band.

However, not all the queens' performances hit the mark. Fame's parody of David Bowie's "Fashion" falls short, with the judges criticising her for not bringing enough energy to the performance. Kennedy Davenport and Jasmine Masters also face criticism for their uninspired rap parody of Salt-N-Pepa's "Whatta Man", with the judges noting that they didn't take enough risks with their concept.

After the judges' critiques, it's time for the queens to face the runway in their best "Bearded and Beautiful" looks. Once again, the queens' creativity shines through, with standout looks from Trixie Mattel, who channels a lumberjack-chic vibe, and Violet Chachki, who stuns in a red-and-gold gown with a beard to match.

As the judges deliberate, tensions rise in the workroom as the queens discuss who they think will be in the bottom two. While some of the queens are confident in their own performances, others reveal that they are nervous about potentially lip-syncing for their lives.

In the end, two queens are chosen to lip-sync for their lives: Fame and Pearl. The two queens go head-to-head in a performance to Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive", with both bringing their A-game to the stage. However, it's ultimately up to RuPaul to decide who stays and who goes home.

Spoof! (There It Is) is a hilarious and creative episode that showcases the queens' talent for comedy and characterisation. From the mini-challenge to the main challenge and the lip sync, every moment is packed with drama, wit and humour, making for an entertaining and unforgettable episode of RuPaul's Drag Race.
