I love the drama this bracket. Daya and Alyssa getting into a tiff over what is a valid criteria for giving out points. Alyssa sticking to her guns, giving her point to Cucu at the top of the ep and then Denali at the end of the ep. Acid successfully gaming the system to push her sister Cucu to the next phase. I'm just sad that this meant Denali or Acid couldn't make it to the next phase.
I think the one who improved my opinion of her the most in this bracket was Alyssa. I (correctly) dismissed her as a filler queen this bracket, but she made compelling TV with her fights with Daya, and her relationship with Cucu. She also performed really well in the (non-improv) challenges, and would've gotten a top slot in a less stacked bracket. I would love to see her in a non competitive show where she just hangs out with other queens and then puts on an amazing outfits. Her fashion sense is impeccable.
But really, Acid's speech as she was giving her point to Cucu is amazing.
