‘Weakest Hyperlink’: Scarlet Envy, Olivia Lux And Extra Get Aggressive And Shady On Drag Queen Version Of Trivia Sport Present

SPOILER ALERT: This text comprises particulars of the “Drag Extravaganza” episode of Weakest Hyperlink

Hosted by Jane Lynch, the NBC recreation present Weakest Hyperlink is understood for its cutthroat elimination methodology of contestants by way of rapid-fire rounds of trivia the place every spherical offers the contestants a possibility to win increasingly more cash. Every spherical ends with the gamers voting one contestant off, and the final one left takes house all of the prize cash.

Already a hyper aggressive state of affairs,  including drag to Weakest Hyperlink solely elevates the ferocity, fabulousness, and naturally, occasional shade.

The competitors included eight queens together with RuPaul’s Drag Race alums Scarlet Envy (season 11 and All Stars season 6) and Olivia Lux (season 13); in addition to Woo Woo Monroe who additionally works as a sheriff in San Jose, CA (who would’ve thought?!); skilled opera singer Gila from Denver, CO; Cierra Symone Campbell representing Birmingham, AL; Kat Sass from Chicago; Pickle from Los Angeles; and veteran queen Lili Whiteass from Windfall, RI.

Spherical 1 begins and the queens are off to a rocky begin particularly when Pickle is requested: “In 1889, journalist Nellie Bly went world wide in 80 days impressed by a novel by what French creator?”

It’s not a very simple query, however Pickle clearly didn’t know the reply and mentioned “Chaka Khan!” in what appeared like a second of panic (by the way in which, reply is Jules Verne).

The spherical ends and Jane Lynch throws some shade of her personal saying to the queens: “I do know it’s onerous to run in heels, however we’re simply asking you to run a sequence and earn $25,000. You stumbled your strategy to $3,000!”

The queens snicker in settlement.

Now, it’s time for the primary spherical of voting the weakest hyperlink out. Statistically, Gila is the weakest hyperlink – and Woo Woo, Cierra, Kat, and Olivia agree. Lili votes for Kat whereas Scarlet votes for Pickle and vice versa. That mentioned, the stats had been proper. Gila is the weakest hyperlink and she or he sings her method off stage.

The queens at present have $3,000 banked from the primary spherical. For the second spherical, the amount of cash up for grabs is $50,000. Let’s hope they do higher this spherical…

Okay, seems they don’t.

All hope is misplaced when one of many queens thought that Hooters had a supply service referred to as “Tits.”  Because the spherical ends, Lynch shades them as soon as once more for including solely $7,500 (out of $50,000!) to their piggy financial institution. On their efficiency, Lynch recommends they “ought to have lip synced a sensible individual’s solutions.”

Voting begins and from the leap it’s Scarlet’s flip to go house – and the queens votes are according to the stats. In the meantime, Scarlet votes for Cierra, who has an affinity for flipping her hair with each reply to a trivia query.

Hopefully, the queens will attain the $75,000 obtainable in spherical 3 – as a result of third time’s a appeal, proper?

Nicely, probably not.

It’s clear trivia isn’t these queens’ sturdy swimsuit – however all of them look sickening. They solely raked in $6,000 from spherical three, which brings their whole to $10,500.

It’s now getting all the way down to the nitty gritty and technically, the weakest hyperlink for the spherical was Pickle – who works for Drag Story Hour in Los Angles. Nevertheless, Kat carried out poorly within the spherical.

Woo Woo and Lili vote for Kat, whereas Cierra and Olivia vote for Pickle. Kat votes for Lili, and Pickle votes for Cierra. Votes are in every single place this spherical – leaving Pickle and Kat in a tie because the weakest hyperlink, making the strongest hyperlink of the spherical, Lili, the deciding issue.

Lili, who initially voted for Kat because the weakest hyperlink and has the chance to alter her thoughts…doesn’t.

Kat, who appears to be like sickening, leaves the stage, and encourages different ladies like herself to take part in drag.

Spherical 4 ups the quantity of attainable coin to $100,000. Fingers are crossed that the queens not less than add $50,000 to their financial institution… or possibly not less than $25,000.

 

The spherical begins and finishes with a quickness and Cierra banks some huge cash – which proves to work in her favor. She is technically the strongest hyperlink however that doesn’t maintain Lynch from jokingly shading them, saying they “blew it”. They banked $12,500 which brings their whole financial institution to $29,000.

Pickle is voted the weakest hyperlink by Woo Woo, Lili, Cierra, and Olivia. Pickle votes for Cierra (There’s positively a little bit of silent, however tense competitors between the 2 all through).

Nonetheless, it’s unanimous. Pickle is eradicated and as Lynch says is “downgraded to a drag princess”.

Spherical 5 the pot is as much as $250,000 and I’m simply hoping they not less than add $10,000 to their whole financial institution. The spherical kicks off with Cierra answering and in the long run, they solely add $7,500 to their whole financial institution.

“Who’s drag identify ought to have been ‘Mrs. Questions’?” quips Lynch on the finish of the spherical.

The strongest hyperlink of the spherical is Lili whereas the weakest is Cierra – however Olivia is unanimously voted out. She voted for Cierra.

 

 

It’s all the way down to the finale three and there may be now $500,000 obtainable so as to add to the full financial institution. It’s getting intense. Because the spherical begins, Cierra is the one one banking however is scuffling with the questions. When it comes time to vote, Cierra and Lili vote for Woo Woo, who’s statistically the weakest hyperlink of the spherical, to go away. And he or she does. In the meantime, Woo Woo voted for Lili.

It’s the ultimate spherical. Every queen will probably be requested 5 questions. The overall financial institution of $46,500 will probably be awarded to the queen who has essentially the most appropriate solutions.

First up: Lili. She incorrectly solutions a query about Rosa Parks whereas Cierra’s information of Lebron James try to trademark “taco Tuesday” labored in her favor.

Lili will get on the board along with her information about Walt Disney and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. Cierra strikes forward with factors when she realizes that Lil Yachty, Bruno Mars and Dolly Parton have all given Oprah a shout out in one among their songs.

Lili is clearly embarrassed when she calls the well-known gorilla that discovered signal language “Helen Keller however after figuring out what the “R” stands for in RMS Titanic (it stands for Royal), Lili takes the lead – after which wins when Cierra couldn’t identify the Soviet chief that modified his start surname to include the Russian phrase for metal in his identify.

Cierra answered “Hitler” and sadly for her that was not the correct reply. Lucky for Lili, she wins $46,500.
