“RuPaul’s Drag Race” struts back onto MTV this Friday with “Monopulence!,” an episode that takes the queens’ creativity to new heights (or perhaps new lows, depending on the execution). This week’s challenge tasks the remaining contestants with creating outfits inspired by the iconic board game, Monopoly. And there’s a twist: they have to build their looks from scratch. This means no pre-made garments, no readily available accessories – just raw materials and their imaginations.

The “from scratch” element adds a layer of difficulty that’s sure to push some queens to their limits. Expect triumphs, disasters, and everything in between. Adding to the fun, actress and comedian Sandra Bernhard joins the judging panel, bringing her signature wit and unpredictable critiques to the runway.
