This show is bananas in pajamas. I absolutely lost it at that musical number. I didn't know what to do with myself for the rest of the episode. This show is just.....bizarre in a good way. Whenever I think it can't possibly get any weirder, the whole asylum breaks into a musical number complete with choreography. I would have loved to have been on set that day.
I was not expecting Mary Satan to rape the Monsignor. I'm going to miss that old Devil. She was fun. Mean as ****, right up until the end. But fun.
Oh, Arden. You really were such a *****. Killing yourself over Eunice. Good god.
I am so over Thredson. At least Lana isn't putting up with his **** anymore. You go Lana Banana.
I actually find this episode quite good. That musical number actually was interesting and I think it's cool that they switched it up. Thank god that the devil is now gone. Maybe now Jude can get back into control?
This show is just rotten to the core. ******* crazy and as chaotic and messy as it gets.

Lana reading Thredson his rights was everything. Never thought the two who died would be gone before the finale. to the flawless Sister Mary Satan. And the Glee mashup
Ryan Murphy said there was a hint at Season 3 in this episode. I'm hoping the "I Put a Spell On You" on the jukebox was it, and next year will take place around the Salem Witch Trials.
Or in an ideal world, it'd be 12 flawless episodes of this:
That would be great. I think you're onto something with this.
So I'm BEYOND pissed I didn't know it was on last night. I thought it didn't come back till next week. Ya'll need to hide the spoilers because I almost read TEW much.
The episode was so good.
One of my faves from the whole season
The Name Game>>>>>
And getting back Grace for the devil
What kind of terrible exchange?
Mary Eunice better get the last laugh
'American Horror Story': Ryan Murphy on this week's major character deaths and hints about season 3 -- EXCLUSIVE
[SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE LATEST AMERICAN HORROR STORY: ASYLUM]
GET EW ON YOUR TABLET: Subscribe today and get instant access! So is the devil gone? Did the Angel of Death take away the devil?
I really loved that ending for her character. We didn’t want she dies and the devil goes into someone else. il. I liked that ending and I thought it was good.I liked the idea that the only thing more powerful than the devil is the Angel of Death, which is actually the cousin of the devil That’s always what happens historically around episode 10, we start wrapping everything up and characters die. So this was a big one.
I loved how it was shot when she was thrown off the staircase. It looked like Lily was tossed.
She was actually! I mean she didn’t do a five-story drop but she did a lot of that stuff. I think that’s what made it look so good because she really went for it.
So we also saw Arden come to a very tragic end as well. Was he just destroyed by the loss of Mary Eunice’s innocence?
Yeah, I think he’s destroyed because our version of that character was his whole life was someone who really thought he was not capable of love and to do all the inhuman acts that he did, he had hardened himself. I think when he felt that part of his heart open up and to have it close again was devastating. I also think the image of a Nazi doctor going into an oven is sort of a brilliant metaphor of him literally paying. Obviously, he’s a terrible character but I thought his end was very justified and somewhat poetic.
Now that Lana and Thredson are back in the asylum together again, how is this gonna play out? Will this be a cat and mouse kind of thing?
Well, we didn’t want them in-and-out, in-and-out. So it will play out and be resolved next week.
Does that mean someone might die?
Well, it is American Horror Story.
Grace gave birth to her baby. Will we learn more about this child and what it is?
It’s all revealed next week about what it was and how it was put in her and what the plan was. I think next week fully answers and puts that story to bed.
Next week is called “Spilt Milk?” What is that referring to?
Many things. I will say it has the most disturbing opening scene we’ve done ever. It involves Dylan McDermott and a hooker.
You’ve wrapped for the season. Two major characters died tonight. Is that the fate of most of the characters?
We knew from the beginning who would live and who would die. We do an interesting thing with the last two characters and take huge time leaps and go from 1965 to 1969 to 1973 to 1981. It’s a very interesting structure. We take you from 1965 all the way to the present day. It was a really ambitious thing to do in terms of a production point of view. It’s very satisfying, the ending. I know last year it ended and people were like, Well, then what happened? What happened to the ghosts in the house? What happened to Constance and that baby? No one will end this season having any questions at all about what happened to any character.
So, what will happen with Jude? She’s kind of a vegetable now.
I really wanted to explore the idea of the gravity and the social implications of the mental health system in this country. As you’ll see in episode 10 and episode 11, what happened to many of these institutions is they ran out of money and they sold them to the state and the state began to use them as warehouses for not just people with mental illness but people with really bad health care problems. Jessica was very attracted to this idea. So we really explore the decline of that system through her. But also the triumphs of people. What was important to me is that the show as we built to the conclusion wasn’t just so dark and unrelenting. I really wanted to have a couple happy endings and some of the characters do have that.
You said that next year will be lighter. Is that still the case?
I mean, I don’t think anything could ever be as dark as the mental health care system in our country. I sorta feel like for the third version I want to do something that’s a little bit more “evil glamour.” Just something that’s a little bit more…one of the things that I missed this season was I really loved having that Romeo & Juliet youth story with Violet and Tate. I want something like that again and we’re doing something like that in the third season. And we’re contemplating shooting the show in a different place. We’re contemplating shooting it in a place in the country where true horror has been. We’ve got lots of delicious plans.
Hmm,I hope he doesn't make it too much lighter next season......
The twisted insanity is what brings me back each week and I'd hate if he tried to make it too funny....
Yeah, I'm pretty convinced that it's the Salem Witch Trials and 'I Put A Spell On You' was the clue.
It lends itself to a brilliant female-dominant cast as the accused witches and a few intense/twisted male roles as the accusing priests, so AHS has all that covered. Evan Peters could be in a "Romeo & Juliet" plot with a young witch, so he's the "normal" one struggling this time.
I liked the musical number, that woman is just flawless, it was kind of bizarre, idk, I liked it.
Is it me or the rape scene was one of the hottest things ever? I mean, I'm gay and I was so turned on.
Since Eunice and Dr. Arden are gone, I hope Alliens are coming up next, I didn't wanted the other two to go so early, there's 3 episodes left with practically no evil left besides BloodyFace.
I just finished watching the last 2 episodes and I gotta say I'm not too pleased how they used a cheap way to justify the aliens.... like really? Kit is basically getting immortality since the aliens will come to his rescue when he's about to die.
Dylan McDermott character made an introduction in an odd way. The scene could have been better, rather than him going to a hypnotherapist and admitting he's a killer, since we already knew that's the direction it was heading towards.
