The official synopsis for RuPaul's Drag Race season 15 episode 13 reads:

“The queens give drag makeovers to hard-working teachers, from kindergarten to high school. Queer pop musician Hayley Kiyoko guest judges.”

In addition to her musical and dance careers, Hayley is also an actress. She has appeared in a number of films, including Scooby-Doo! film series (2009–2010), Lemonade Mouth (2011), Blue Lagoon: The Awakening (2012), Jem and the Holograms (2015), Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015), and XOXO (2016).

Additionally, the teaser released shows some shots from the upcoming episode, showing drag queens waking up and reading Salina's message to them as they head into the werkroom.

During the personal confession, Anetra outlined the results of the previous episode's elimination:

“The mirror message feels a little bit pointed right now. And a little bit salty. And by a little, I mean like a lot. Salina is a little upset with Loosey and why she chose her.”

Mistress then mentioned:

“If I wanted to be a b****, I could’ve said Loosey. But I gave my perfect pageant answer and said I would send Sasha home. So for once, I’m patting myself on the back for being in my congenial era.”
