This week, we're bringing you the first 20 minutes of our discussion about a movie that must be included in the gay canon! If you want to hear the rest of the discussion, check out the link to our Patreon below!

*Cruel Intentions* (1999) may mostly be about the heterosexual pursuits of Manhattan’s filthiest and richest, but it’s overwhelmingly queer coded. The cast includes Buffy Summers, Tracy Flick, Joshua Jackson with a box dye job, a cadre of older character actresses in supporting roles, a Tara Reid cameo, Selma Blair casually stealing the movie and even Eric Mabius as the Gregster. Plus Ryan Philippe’s butt, the spittle string when Kathryn and Cecile famously French kiss in the park, a soundtrack with zero skips, and a deeply satisfying female empowerment ending to the tune of “Bittersweet Symphony.”

It’s time for Ru to pack up the pink limousine and peel out, but first—an uncanny valley version of a live finale! The Top 3 perform signature songs we’ve never heard before, and two of them are actually pretty great while one of them is sort of growing on us. (On an unrelated note, we do a full autopsy of “Bodysuit” this week.) We get some much welcomed mompreciation, plus Mrs. Wind and Mrs. Cristàl, Malaysia Babydoll Eagle, Sasha Colby (SASHA COLBY, Donna TaDonna) being She Her Hers, and finally, a “Padam Padam” lip sync on Drag Race between a vampire from Philadelphia and a boba-filled banana lady.

Instead of hashing out old fights while perched on stadium arranged bar stools on either side of the stage, the queens of Season 16 are reuniting to face off in a lip sync bracket for $50,000 and, in Megami’s case, a total rudemption arc. It’s a brand new stage (from Secret Celebrity Drag Race?), a playlist of top tier lip sync songs, Bruno just happy to be there, some girl in the audience high off her heels, and an opportunity for the top three to sit back and be judgey gays in the workroom while the best of the rest put on one of the most entertaining episodes of Drag Race ever.
