RuPaul's Drag Race Season 17, Episode 14
"How's Your Headliner?"
Director: Nick Murray
Cast: Jewels Sparkles, Lexi Love, Onya Nurve, Sam Star, Suzie Toot

I don't think I've ever seen a season of RuPaul's Drag Race that's as cleanly cleaved into two distinct halves. There's the first half of Season 17 — or, rather, the first 9 episodes of the season. These episodes were feisty, fun, and full of potential — mostly realized potential, too. And then there's Episodes 11-14, which have ranged from uninspired to downright baffling.
