American Horror Story on FX - Part II

[Sawyer]

Yea I usually absolutely disdain dance numbers but that one was GLORIOUS

I'll show you a dance number, muh****a.

Well, they aren't saying it is going to be a rehash. It will just have a two character's in love.

And really on the surface Season 2 may seem different, but season 2 is all about love. So far both seasons of this show have made love of varying natures central themes in the stories. In this season Sister Jude was hot for Monsignor, Dr. Arthur Arden was hot for Sister Mary Eunice, Dr. Thredson is hot for Lana, Tate is hot for Grace and looking for answers about his wife. The whole season has resolved around love of some sort or another, and all the plots have flowed from these different loves and passions.

He is FOREVER cast as Tate!!!! who is this "Kit"?

Was anyone else surprised that the possession story wasn't the big one that made it to the end? The doc having a horrible death and sister Jude drooling on herself before the finale were kind of a given, but as soon as sister Mary Eunice told the Monseigneur they were going to the Vatican, I figured that would be the final shot of the season. I guess I just thought she'd do more than ruin everyone's lives (even though she did that perfectly).

Also, anyone know how many episodes we have left?

 

[Sawyer]

Three.

Thank you! I found interesting things for Jude in the descriptions of the next two episodes on wikipedia. "The Monsignor goes to extreme lengths to silence Jude" and then "A deadly new inmate threatens Sister Jude's chance of release from Briarcliff."

Maybe the monsignor goes a little too extreme and she gets him locked away? Or maybe the police find and readmit bad santa? Jude's fate is definitely the most interesting piece of the puzzle left for me. What do you guys think?

Is it possible the demon jumped out of Eunice and into Monsignor? I know the angel of death said she was taking them both, but that was an anticlimactic end for such a big plotline.

Just got around to watching the last episode. After getting back home from the holiday I didn't realize the show was back already.

It was probably the weakest episode this season, IMO. Which is a bit odd considering how much happened with Arden and Mary Eunice dying, Jude getting the electric shock therapy, and the devil possibly being cast out. I agree with Marvolo that that was anticlimactic way to end such a big plotline. I thought the devil might jump into the Monsignor, but I think they would have hinted at that if it were the case. Not to mention the angel of death taking them both.

Another thing that confused and bothered me was Arden's inconsistency. He lies to Kit about the aliens and Grace being alive, but then he just leaves her behind for Thredson to discover her, and then goes on to kill himself? What was the point in lying if he was going to quit his work and kill himself? I guess he just felt humiliated by what Pepper said.

I did like that Jude managed to tell her Mother Superior that Lana didn't belong there. I'm interested to see what becomes of that. And now that Mary Eunice is dead, who will run the asylum? I assume the Monsignor or possibly Thredson.

How many episodes are left in the season? I know the show just came back but it feels as if this story is dragging on

3 episodes left. 13 total

 

[SpideyForPrez]

I have a feeling the next three episodes will move quickly and, hopefully, start tying up all the plots. It definitely feels like we're close to the end.

If you watched last season, I think Murphy is staying with that formula for however more seasons we got left. I heard the next episode resolves the alien plot.

Loved Threadson getting the middle finger. t:

Ha. Yes. That was pretty great.

I read this theory somewhere else about modern day Bloody Face. To me it makes more sense after having seen tonight's show.

Spoiler

What if Johnny's not even Lana's kid? From the opening scene we watched just how much of a "Mommy complex" Johnny has. From the ending scene, it kind of foreshadows that Lana will ultimately accept and love her son. Or I could totally be wrong. But...

...remember 'Anne Frank'? Maybe one of her kids inherited her disorder, and is, in all actuality, Johnny. Could Dylan's character just be a deluded copycat?

 

[Sawyer]

I love that after starting out the season as the head ***** in charge, Jude's now the only important character left in Briarcliff as a patient.

Also glad they're finally giving Fiennes stuff to do.

 

[Marvolo]

Necrophilia was a bit much.

 

[Sawyer]

Not really. I thought they pretty thoroughly implied that when he was telling Lana about his experience with the cadaver in med school.

I came up with a similar theory. Lana ends up raising her baby, and modern day Bloody Face is just delusional about being Thredson's son. Depending on what happens with Kit's love triangle, maybe Dylan McDermott is Grace's baby who thinks he's Bloody Face since he was born in Briarcliff. That might be an interesting twist.

Necrophilia is always a bit much for me. Especially when they show it and detail it. And I completely missed the implication of him and the cadavers in med school. Went right over my head. Its one of those things I dont think about because its pretty much the last despicable thing you can have a character do. Its the bottom of the crazy barrel.

 

[SpideyForPrez]

I get what you mean but when it comes to this show, there's really no "bit much" for me. It's already gone too far.

I actually find someone raping a living person to be harder to watch than a necrophilia scene. As Frank Reynolds on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia said, "Dead body's like a piece of trash."

It is the desecration of the dead that unnerves me, and the state of mind a person has to be in to do something like that to a decaying corpse. It takes a special kind of crazy to do that, and it scares the ever living **** out of me. You are right tho in this show it is to be expected. Im not necessarily faulting the show for it but I cant really fathom what other depraved things they can come up with and get away with on television. Even FX has a line and this has to be getting close.

 

[Doctor Jones]

I love how far they're taking it.

 

[squeekness]

This episode felt like a finale to me with them tying up so many plot lines. What are they going to do with two more episiodes?

 

[Primal Slayer]

I wonder if we will have another baby next season due to the same situation. Hope not but I am wondering if this sort of thing will be a common factor.

 

[Motown Marvel]

this episode was one of the weaker ones. i dunno what they can do with two more episodes without it feeling like its dragging on. i definitely considered modern day bloody face being kit and graces son.
