Reception

Trae DeLellis of The A.V. Club gave the episode a rating a 'B'.^[6] Charlie Ducan of PinkNews opined, "The verses are surprisingly original for the umpteenth cast version of a Ru song in the past few years, and though an otherwise frontrunner stumbles in her offering, the music video is sickening."^[7] Production designer Gianna Costa received an Emmy Award nomination for the episode.^[8]
