Does Amancio Know His Worth?

Our new friend Amancio wants to ask his boss for a raise, but doesn't know how. Anne relates his dilemma to the larger issue of pay inequality. Gale sings. Caroline demonstrates how we can all directly communicate our desires. Gale sings again. Anne reminds us why RuPaul should have a guest starring role in every tv show. Caroline shows us how to pull off a good scam. Also, did we mention Gale sings?
