Jessica Lange- fantastic actress, questionable with hygiene

The Monsignor questions Jude’s sanity, to which she proclaims “I’m more sane now as a madwoman than I ever was at the head of Briarcliff”. The Monsignor, who undoubtedly will answer for his dereliction in duties, realizes that Jude is a major threat to his long term plans to inhabit the Vatican.

Kit finds out he is being released, as the police have now concluded that Dr Thredson was Bloody Face all along. He asks to speak to the Monsignor. Kit blackmails the Monsignor with the threat of talking to the reporters who are now interested in the atrocities inside the walls of Briarcliff, if the Monsignor doesn’t release Grace and retrieve their baby from the orphanage.

The Monsignor assures Kit there is no way he can release a crazy axe murder like Grace out into the world. Kit reminds him, though, that Grace is legally dead and Dr. Arden had signed a death certificate so she can be released and the three of them will never be heard from again. No one seems to question how or why Dr. Arden has suddenly gone missing, not even the Monsignor. You’d think this guy would be looking for anyone who could take the fall for him. I’ve said it before, but Briarcliff seriously needs to get an HR department up and running. Most of this season’s problems could have been averted with at least a part time associate.

The Monsignor agrees to Kit’s terms and Kit arrives at his house with Grace and Thomas by his side. He apologizes for the mess, as he never got a chance to clean up after that whole wife getting abducted by alien’s thing. A good host should do a little cleaning up before they have guests, or at least turn all the furniture right side up. There is a serious lack of manners on this show. There is no time to waste on manners, though, as Kit hears a noise in the house and goes back to the bedroom to find his wife, Alma, with a newborn baby cradled in her arms. It looks like there may be a little baby mama drama in the next episode, as Kit didn’t even let the sheets get cold before he impregnated Grace. Good luck with that Kit. I’d rather be stuck in Briarcliff than deal with two hormonal women.

Two months and two baby mamas ago

Lana pays a visit to the local back alley abortion doctor, who assures her that she is a real doctor. The doc asks Lana if she is sure she wants to go through with this and Lana recounts that her “lover was murdered by the man who raped and impregnated me”. It turns out that Todd Akin was dead wrong and the body doesn’t have natural defenses for rape pregnancies. Who knew? The man seemed to know what he was talking about.

About

I learned I was different in the third grade.  They would bring in our parents as tutors to help with difficult subjects like math, which is a testament to just how underfunded the California school system has always been.  Michael Weber's mother was tutoring me and one of my classmates in multiplication.  I did not care for the speed at which the lesson was progressing. 

I threw out a line from the most classic of movies, 'Back to the Future', when I simply stated "Let's see if these bastards can do 90!"  Michael Weber's mom was not impressed.

Its sad when the peak of your comedic career comes in the third grade, but I've never let that hinder me.  I still plug away at my boring day job while I dream of a day that I can tell the Michael Weber's moms of the world to suck it for not appreciating my sense of humor.

    I thought Lana said that, “Breathing is too good for you”. I think that line is better anyway.

    You did a great recap RJ! You get them up as fast as Flipit does and I am very impressed. I have been lurking a lot this season since I just got interested in AHS: Asylum (I have to thank Nads and TVGasm for it) and now decided to comment.

    I don’t know but I don’t think the whole “Lana’s baby is Bloody Face 2″ thing is as it appears. I am sure I am wrong but I have a feeling there is going to be another HUUUGE twist we never saw coming. I mean, there are 3 babies involved in this series and it cannot be that Kit’s kids are just now out in the normal world and, well, normal. I am not looking forward to the whole Maury Povich paternity scandal talk show story line because it looks extremely boring. Unless this ties into the whole Bloody Face 2 thing, I don’t see it being remotely interesting.

    I am looking forward to seeing more Sarah Paulson. I <3 her.

    Poor Sister Jude. She will get out and her and Lana Banana will wind up being the new Thelma and Louise.

    Great recap again!!!

    I want to know how Bloody Face 2 got his daddy’s house. Didn’t he say he had been moved from foster home to foster home? Or am I imaging that?

    I am so glad Sister Jude is still alive. They can kill of the entire cast as long as Jessice Lange stays alive til the end. I love her.

    @Parisi, I’m waiting for a big twist too. I want two know who Kit’s 2 kids end up being.

    And I know Monsignor killed her, but I still wish they’d bring back Shelly.

    RJ – you are hilarious! I hope you pick up another show when this one ends.

    Parisi – Have you gone back and watched season one of AHS?? If not, I suggest you do. It’s 10x better than this season could ever hope to be. Also, I went back and forth on this episode about Lana’s baby actually being Bloody Face II. We better find out because BF 2 killed all those mo-fo’s at the beginning of the season and strung up the fake BF’s.

    The most disgusting scene this season was watching breast milk dribble out of Johnny’s mouth. With that said, I would still totally do Dylan McDermott.

    Since Dr. Arden is dead, are we ever going to find out what he saw when he “killed” Kit and the aliens came???

    @plockness monster-I have not seen season 1. I heard it was great but while I love horror movies (Saw BABY!!!), I don’t like horror TV. It gives me indigestion like watching Toddlers and Tiaras. I hate supernatural scares because it seems so odd. I like the psychological, torturing people bit. To be it in simple terms, I like watching stupid people die. It makes me laugh. Which is why I like AHS: Asylum. I also liked Chloe Sevigney (sp) and I used to despise her.

    I don’t know but I think BF2 might be one of Kit’s kids or something. Maybe even the two accomplices who helped Johnny wound up killing after the two fakers killed Adam Levine and that hot chick.

    I really, really miss Lily Rabe. She was AMAZING. I want to see her come back again and kill Monsignor. That guy is hiding something bigger than just the Briarcliff secrets.

    Well, this episode has gone out of the way to establish a breast milk fetish for BF2, so I’m going with Lana breast feeding the baby, and then deserting it, hence his attachment to breast feeding . . . anyone get where I’m going . . .

    RJ, very witty cap, loved it!!!

    I still miss Devil Nun too, but I’m sure these people will all be back next season in new roles.

    Kit’s babies are alien hybrids, so I doubt they would end up anything as mundane as serial killers. I’m glad Alma made it back!

    Sadly, this wrap up episode wasn’t as good as the previous ones . . . hope there’s still some action in the final two!

    @Miss Molly-Maybe the aliens told Pepper Sister Jude sang to her when she had “The Name Game” delusion.

    Lana, girrrrl, WHAT the bloody(face) hell were you thinking?! First you murder a renowned serial killer/rapist (good choice) and then you carry his genetic legacy on after his death (really bad choice)?!? And then on top of this you don’t want to breastfeed or cuddle with the baby, thereby ENSURING the child has both the “nature” and “nurture” in place to become a violent psychopath himself? That’s just irresponsible!

    I feel like the only way that Lana’s baby isn’t Johnny would be if Thredson impregnated someone else. J is sitting in Thredson’s house, proclaimed himself the son of BF to the psychiatrist, and has alot of the same mental problems as Thredson…I don’t see how he could end up not being Thredson’s child.
    But Thredson definitely only has that one baby with Lana, being that he presumably lost his virginity to a frozen corpse. Not sure why he couldn’t just go buy a blow up doll to practice on like everyone else; he’s a doctor, he can afford a blow up doll; but oh well.
    The corpse was free…it’s hard to say no to free things sometimes.
    But anyway, I just don’t see how Johnny could not be Thredson’s son.
    For me, the real question is whether or not Johnny was the one who slaughtered the BF impersonators in the present. Did that guy ever cop to being Bloody Face’s son or is he still unknown?

    So happy that Sister Jude has her wits about her again. That scene where she called the Monsignor out on his shit made me shiver. Jessica Lange is such a fierce bitch.
    She should have kept it cute and quiet though, because her cell at the end?
    Not the business.
    Made the other cells look like Club Med.
    I’m pretty sure that crazy santa guy even had a bigger solitary cell than what she has.
    If Pepper was to save her, I’d be so happy. I wonder what Pepper is doing with her newfound smarts actually, now that Grace and the baby are out.

    @Parisi, I think you should check out the first season.
    Supernatural horror abounds, but it’s mostly twisted, creepy, what the fuck is this shit type of horror. I like horror tv generally, but it’s definitely not like most horror tv that I’ve seen.
    Also, lots of stupid people die right before your eyes. Some good and innocent people die too, which is sad, but a fair percentage of the people kind of had it coming, so you don’t have to feel so bad all the time.

    @Miss Molly, now that would be great!

    There’s only 2 episodes left, right? I don’t know how I’m gonna handled waiting until October for another season (if there is another season). No other show has ever left me so confused, horrified, disgusted and intrigued all at once.

    Do you think they could bring Jessica Lang back for another season?

    A third season has already been announced, and Jessica Lange will be a part of it, but the remaining details have yet to be announced.

    Ryan Murphy has teased, though, that there have been clues in the past two episodes regarding the third season- so viewers have been scouring the episodes. One suggestion is the red slippers that Lana was wearing in the previous episode.

    They said that in season one – that there would be clues as to season 2′s location. Isn’t Briarcliff in Boston?? They talked about Boston a lot in season one because that is where the Harmons moved from.
    Just check IMDB, and the only actor confirmed for season 3 is Jessica Lange. YAY!

    I did learn something from this episode: apparently, there are ways to fulfill your needs. Who knew you could find Chocolate Milk (love that!) on the computer-thingy, and she delivers?

    Haha–my captcha is “Box of chocolates”!
