Fans were especially sad to see Silky Nutmeg go home, but the show had to go on.
Next, it was Yvie and fellow finalist Brooke battling it out to Lady Gaga’s “Edge of Glory."

"People expect a finished product and expect you to look like you spent thousands of dollars or dripping in diamonds. My drag has shaken a lot of the viewers up: It’s not polished and it won’t ever be polished, but that doesn’t mean it’s not finished or it’s not good!” Yvie said.

Brooke added that win or lose, the importance on the show is as simple as inspiring others to just be themselves.
"We’re getting all these little kids who are watching us and becoming fans, looking at us and seeing that it’s OK to be yourself, it’s OK to be different, and it’s OK to wear makeup if you’re a boy!" Brooke told the magazine.
