Tick tock! Tick tock! It’s time for drama! This week, the queens take on the reading challenge before embarking on a mysterious train. For their maxi challenge, the queens perform a parody of Agatha Christie's iconic “Murder on the Orient Express.”
This was a very good episode. Other franchises should take note of this acting challenge. The script was fun, the takes were good and it allowed me as a viewer to really have a close look at the acting of each queen. La Veuve really smashed it out of the park. She was the undisputed winner. If you notice her confesional when she celebrates her win, you can see her bare foot appearing on camera. So funny.
Something I did notice though is that despite Gavana doing overall well, it was clear that when she wasn't actively participating in the take, she was breaking character all the time. Even in the last take you can see her laughing during the last scene. At first I thought production had left that there to justify a bottom-two placement for her, but I guess they were just sloppy.
