I can't be trapped here with her other lovers

So vampires become ghosts after all.

u/proudofwhat Jan 07 '16

So where's Tristan!?!

1

u/AAA5982 Jan 07 '16

He didn't have any unfinished business I guess? I think it would've been too confusing to have Tristan and the other guy I can't remember his name though

2

u/RLC0128 Jan 07 '16

then where is Tristan??

21

u/ME24601 Jan 07 '16

This has just been a shooting filled couple of days for the Countess.

u/ME24601 Jan 07 '16

Penis heroin for everyone!

I swear to god, Scarlett is the smartest person on this show.

u/Penguin_Jane Jan 07 '16

Positive that was in fact a joke. Sorry you missed it so badly .....bitch.

u/PunnyBanana Jan 07 '16

I know. Run Scarlet! Run!

119

u/Omegamaru Jan 07 '16

Yeah, Sally's too batshit crazy for me. That sewing together mess was way too much.

46

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

Well, now we get the sewing people into mattress thing.

26

u/TurtleTape Jan 07 '16

She really kinda crossed a line.

Or three.

12

u/playthewayyoufeelit Jan 07 '16

She crossed that line and cross-stitched it too.

u/wolfofthenightt Jan 08 '16

After many happy disturbing years on reddit I consider myself pretty desensitized, but that scene went a bit far.

u/Tiny-Ghost-Grace Jan 07 '16

"Now that we have Holden, we can be a family again Salamander!"

u/filipelm Jan 14 '16

I'm confused by that part. Does she know her mom and brother are vampires? And that her dad is a serial killer?

u/filipelm Jan 14 '16

Man, she's ridiculously cool with that.

u/AegisEpoch Jan 14 '16

I thought that was f'ed up to say.

u/FloofyBear Jan 07 '16

Mrs. Evers's ongoing love affair with modern cleaning devices is my favorite love story.

16

u/Marty_McFrat Jan 07 '16

The way she approached a washing machine was amazing.

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

I ship it

u/DarlaDimpleAMA Jan 07 '16

Grunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnge. I love Liz.

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

They remembered to pick up scarlet..

46

u/seishin17 Jan 07 '16

They're progressing as humanoids.

u/Tiny-Ghost-Grace Jan 07 '16

Donovan, you really ruined a perfectly good murder.

69

u/boofire Jan 07 '16

I was not sure if Sally was getting the bullets out or just poking her wounds for shits and giggles.

15

u/Princessluna44 Jan 07 '16

The answer is yes.

63

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

Please don't have sex with his ashes

4

u/[deleted] Jan 11 '16

I seriously thought she was going to eat them.

2

u/Princessluna44 Jan 07 '16

God, I was thinking this too.....

61

u/Tiny-Ghost-Grace Jan 07 '16

I'm constantly hoping no one walks in when I'm watching this show. 😨

82

u/adamsandleryabish Jan 07 '16

"geez mom its just my heroin in the dick shows dont judge"

u/staynelaley Jan 07 '16

my sister walked in when gaga kissed ramona

u/billy8383 Jan 07 '16

My dog walked in right as I was whipping it out.

57

u/Marty_McFrat Jan 07 '16

Anybody else wanna hear the Mrs. Evers virginity story?

Yeah.... I knew I was alone.

13

u/6ft_Bunny_Rabbit Jan 07 '16

I could dig it. Mrs. Evers is awesome.

4

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

It was just so messy! and then, oh yes, I got to clean up afterwards. It was like a second orgasm.

3

u/Wubbledaddy Jan 08 '16

Wait, when was that even brought up?

3

u/pineapple_mango Jan 08 '16

She was asked when her first was by Mr. March during the dinner scene. I don't remember what he meant by first but she took it as a sex joke and said my first time with a man?

*edit to add his name lol

55

u/ilovetorunforfun Jan 07 '16

There are more stains in Heaven and Earth, than are dreamt up in your philosophy.

Ominous words.

106

u/Black_Delphinium Jan 07 '16

Please don't snort your son.

12

u/rkellyturbo Jan 07 '16

Only on this show does that comment seem like a legitimate concern.

u/DarlaDimpleAMA Jan 07 '16

Oh my god I thought the exact same thing! Bahahaha

u/Malory_Chambers Jan 07 '16

There was an episode of strange addictions that made me think that she was going to eat her son the entire time.

The woman lost her husband shortly after they got married and she just started eating his remains to feel better. shudders

1

u/d7bleachd7 Jan 07 '16

I'd forgot about that episode! That's probably why.

1

u/KimKimMRW Jan 09 '16

I have read multiple comments on an askreddit thread or something where people described eating their loved ones ashes. It apparently more common than you'd think! Weird.

52

u/twitchedawake Jan 07 '16

Dammit Jon, She just got through being healed from bullets.

This is why you cant keep children.

49

u/kayoro Jan 07 '16

wtf is going on with this episode

41

u/keamyable Jan 07 '16

that sentence can describe how I feel during every episode of this show really

2

u/kayoro Jan 07 '16

Aha basically

11

u/Black_Delphinium Jan 07 '16

All the things.

48

u/boofire Jan 07 '16

Yeah, just die in this street, you'll be okay.

76

u/Black_Delphinium Jan 07 '16

The Addie Special.

47

u/KatleesiMotherOfCats Jan 07 '16

He just wanted to be a pretty boy

4

u/naimaarshad Jan 07 '16

Pretty as dumb as he was and he was VERY pretty with cheekbones/jawline for days.

4

u/saucymac Jan 07 '16

didn't sally die outside as well? how is she stuck there but not what's his face?

6

u/Deathcon900 Jan 07 '16

She probably died on the property, wheras the stress is public space.

133

u/keamyable Jan 07 '16

Mr. March was NOT a fan of Coven.

61

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

Can you blame him? Kyle was horrid!

23

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

He was a zombie for the majority of the time I wouldn't be either tbh.

5

u/Rockerblocker Jan 07 '16

Haven't watched that season yet, not looking forward to it, but I'm doing it for the love of the show

16

u/devont Jan 07 '16

It's just a very different season in tone from the first two, and really, all of them so far. I also think it's a very polarizing season, I feel like you either end up loving it or hating it. I personally loved it.

23

u/keamyable Jan 07 '16

I think we were just all spoiled by the first two seasons being so great, plus it's such a huge change in tone after Asylum. Kathy Bates and Angela Bassett were awesome though.

6

u/rkellyturbo Jan 07 '16

You might love it. Don't let your preconceived notions stop you from enjoying it.

2

u/Rockerblocker Jan 07 '16

True. Hell, it took me three tries and pressure from a friend to actually watch the entirety of the first episode of Murder House. Now I've been addicted to the three seasons I've watched so far.

u/Lydiajufar Jan 07 '16

Coven was def my second favorite season after asylum (HOTTEST EVAN EVERRRRR)

u/iwishiwasaunicorn Jan 07 '16

"you may be a witch, but i'm a ghost!"

thank you, AHS, for making the hierarchy of the spirit/magical/virus world so clear for us

22

u/saintrorem Jan 07 '16

lol. Ghosts > Witches > Vamps? Where do the Aliens fit in? Nazis are up there too...

10

u/altafullahu Jan 07 '16

Zombies...Nazi Zombies.

22

u/altafullahu Jan 07 '16

all we need are some ghouls, goblins and spectres....WE NEED A WITCHER!

1

u/b33bow Jan 11 '16

for some reason, I laughed at that part...

88

u/hatramroany Jan 07 '16

So like...the wrath of the Coven should be coming down on the Hotel. Right?

25

u/jdt1986 Jan 07 '16

I know it's unlikely, but I would love for Cordelia and the other most powerful members of the coven to arrive (looking for Queenie) and end up exorcising the hotel in vengeance for her death...

1

u/KimKimMRW Jan 09 '16

This would be amazing!

46

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

I want Zoe to sacrifice them all to Poppa Legba.

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

Mrs. Evers did it oh shit

u/saintrorem Jan 07 '16

Sort of adorable.

u/BatBro52 Jan 07 '16

Hey has anyone ever told you you look like an immortal french slave owning sadist?

39

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

How does Gaga still look hot when she's been shot five hundred billion times

2

u/TreyTrey23 Jan 07 '16

Shhh...don't question it. Just enjoy.

38

u/hadapurpura Jan 07 '16

Miss Evers needs a shot of self-esteem and join Liz and Iris.

Edit: She got it.

31

u/Black_Delphinium Jan 07 '16

Still pulling for the three of them to move to be beach and become the new Golden Girls.

1

u/hadapurpura Jan 07 '16

A tad hard for Miss Evers, what with being trapped in the hotel and all.

4

u/Black_Delphinium Jan 07 '16

A girl can dream.

3

u/Elennoko Jan 07 '16

We'll move the hotel to the beach.

u/gh0stgall3ry Jan 07 '16

The coffee can that had Donovan's ashes in it said Campfire Gold- wasn't that the coffee Elsa Mars did a commercial for last season? Or am I imagining things lol

You know that you're savage when Mrs. Evers is freaked out by what you did.

30

u/FloofyBear Jan 07 '16

I'll have him all scooped up in a jiffy! :D

u/Lydiajufar Jan 07 '16

I feel like Evers made that face as she said it πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

u/Tiny-Ghost-Grace Jan 07 '16

"Am I safe?"

"Well, you're dying. I mean, I guess?"

u/Conden1992 Jan 07 '16

He meant safe from becoming a ghost :0

"Alright guys, it turns out that 2016's premier is going to air the same day as the People's choice awards, we really need something really controversial to get some high ratings. Any ideas?"

"Have we done our threesome yet this season?"

"Yea, a few times."

"Well, i mean, we can have them shooting up during the threesome..."

"Ooh, thats close, but thats a bit clichΓ©, dont you think? Make sure it goes in the dick."

"Well, we still need time to stitch the plotlines toget-"

"Stitch them together? The threesome?"

"No, i mea-"

"Good Enough."

Edit:

"Oh and a hall full of half consumed-kids, don't forget that. That'll work."

"Should the dead kids be in the dick heroine orgy?"

"Are you kidding?! We have standards...

...

...and practises to bribe first. Save it for next season."

Edit2:

"Oh yea, and kill Gaga too. That should get some angry comments from her little monsters."
