The first eight contestants of the season enter the Werk Room one at a time. Ariana Grande enters the Werk Room in Vivacious' season 6 entrance look, nicknamed "Ornacia".[3] For the mini-challenge, the contestants do a car wash-themed photo shoot that pays homage to the first mini-challenge of season 1. Irene Dubois wins the mini-challenge.

Meanwhile, the next eight contestants enter the Werk Room. Vivacious enters in the same outfit Grande previously wore.[4][5] For their mini-challenge, the contestants do a motorcycle-riding themed photoshoot that pays homage to the first mini-challenge of season 2. Loosey LaDuca wins the mini-challenge.

RuPaul brings the two groups together, announcing that, unlike in the premieres of recent seasons, there will be an elimination.
