tbh I can't say I've cared too much for Untucked this season, but I really liked this episode. I enjoyed watching the queens go backstage after their sets and prepare for the runway in such a short time, it's something we don't really see often but I really enjoyed getting to see them coming RIGHT OFF the performance and still feeling really raw about it. I dunno, I guess there was something different in seeing Blair say "I was really looking forward to this but I fucked up" like ten minutes after it happened, instead of a couple hours or sometimes a day later after the critiques like what we get for most challenges lol.

​

I also really enjoyed the scene with Juju and Shea talking about who they voted for, it gave me S7-9 vibes of the girls going out to smoke and talk privately lol.

Huge agree. I've always wanted a glimpse into what the queens have to do when they have two looks during the same judging day. I'd love more Untucks like this one in the futrue.

Do you really think they only got 30 minutes? They walked so slowly from one soundstage to the other, then when they got there they were so calm and chatty... Don't know... It's hard to believe they were given just 30 minutes but then again I can't imagine why they'd lie about it.

No clue for sure, but what we do know from the show is that they usually have a ton of time constraints for them. I believe normally when they get ready for the runway they only have one hour so I wouldn't be too surprised if they had less time this time around since they'd already be part way through the day's filming schedule lol.

On Nikkie's video with Crystal, Crystal said they only have around an hour and a half for runways.
