This episode just reinforced how classy Jinkx is. She was never judgmental or harsh to her partner, and she was incredibly sensitive to his needs. I also love how she never shit-talked him in the confessional, unlike some people *coughRoxxxycough* Plus, I think they really turned it out. I think the judges were a bit too harsh on Alaska & Nebraska (amazing names!). The padding was horrible but everything else was flawless, IMHO. At times when they walked the runway, I could barely tell them apart! I adored the catsuits and the wigs and the guns & $ bags. Such love.

Also, ding dong the bitch is gone. Bye Coco, bye gurl~~~ Hope to see you never. That face WAS busted. She should have been "so angry" at herself for letting him down, rather than at the judges for reading her for it.

Now Roxxxy needs to go, and I'll be happy.

I agree!

Jinkx was such a sweetheart. I love watching her and her kind facial expressions. I had hope that she'd win the challenge. Not to be, but she did great.

So true on Alaska. Busted padding, but everything else was great. I need more catsuits in my life! I guess we've seen that picking the pretty boy is often a bad strategy?

Coco had so totally overstayed her welcome. She was like a mango that's way past its freshness date.

Detox's routine was one of the harder ones, and boy did she get read for the mistakes in it. I don't think anyone else tried anything as complicated though. I love Detox but I am feeling that her heart's not in it.

yeah, this is exactly how I feel. Jinkx was given the biggest challenge, imo. And she never complained. She was just supportive and kind to Dave the whole damn time.

And I'm with you on Alaska, too. basically, her hips pads weren't great. But the rest was amazing!

Exactly. If I wasn't firmly Team Jinkx before I would be now.

Jinkx and her partner reminded me a lot of Raven and her partner in this challenge from S2 - it really warmed me up to Raven, and with Jinkx, it just made me love her even more, and really sold me on what a class act she is.

And don't even get me started on Coco's poor partner's busted face. Gurl looked like someone hit her with a shovel AFTER she stole Phi Phi's wonky eye. I still can't believe Roxxxy was like "No gurl, she looks great! The judges are wack!" - although I guess it explains some of her style choices.
