Cigars, circumcision and a phone call from...BOB THE DRAG QUEEN (winner of Ru Paul's Drag Race season 8) Also Carrie punches Big in the face which we have all wanted to do at some point.

While Charlotte chooses to remain 35, Beyonce turned 36 just days ago so this is dedicated to her.

THE ONE WHERE PETROVSKY DOESN'T KNOW WHO BILLY JOEL IS. For what may be the darkest episode of the series, Elyse and Melissa go it ALONE.
