'RuPaul's Drag Race' Season 12 returned on Friday night for an all-new episode, and there couldn't be a better way to kick off the weekend. 

Last week we saw Brita's journey on the series come to an end after she lost the 'lipsync for life' battle with Heidi N Closet. Picking up right where they left off last week, the contestants entered the workroom to Brita's goodbye message on the mirror.

Gigi Goode won the challenge last week, making her the first person to win three challenges even before the series could reach episode. This caused a little stir among the other queens, but mostly one particular queen, Jan. 

Jan broke down in the workroom over Brita going home, who she claims is her best friend. But the other queens weren't buying her act and said that she was creating a fuss because she didn't win the challenge. With the competition getting tougher by the minute, Jaida Essence Hall claimed that Jan is just crying because she is frustrated she hasn't won a challenge to date. 

It wasn't just the drag queens who noticed that Jan's breakdown wasn't because Brita left. Taking to Twitter, fans also said that Jan broke down because she didn't win the challenge. Last week after the results were announced, fans were shocked to see that Jan didn't win despite standing out during the challenge. Some fans claimed that Jan was robbed out of her spot. 

But after seeing Jan have a breakdown now, fans affirmed that it's because the competition is getting to her. "S**t, Jan is starting to crack under pressure. The competition is getting to her! #DragRace," a fan wrote. Adding to that another said, "Jan can’t win anything, not even a mini challenge. She is the most underrated queen of the season. #DragRace." 

"I want Jan to stop acting like her crying is for Brita. Girl just say you’re salty that you lost the challenge best suited for you to win," a fan shared. While another said, "Jan is so tired of Gigi winning everything. It's written all over her face #DragRace." 

"Jan is pulling an Anne Hathaway 2009 Oscar moment when Kate Winslet won. Even though, all award pundits predicted Hathaway to win for Rachel Getting Married. We love to see it, Jan! Queen recognize game. #DragRace," a fan said. 

'RuPaul's Drag Race' Season 12 airs every Friday night only on VH1. Check your local listings for more information.
