For an episode that felt a bit slow at times, it had so many good quotes and a fabulous monologue. I’m wondering why and how I didn’t like it more. Don’t get me wrong, I did enjoy it, but I’m a die hard AHS fan, been since the first season premiere, and this episode was nothing compared to what AHS has brought us throughout the first two seasons, so it didn’t faze me much. Let’s get into the superlatives.
Favorite Quotes
Well, since most of my favorite quotes came from Madison’s monologue, I decided to just post the entire monologue. It by far wins the favorite quotes category for me. And because her monologue came before any of my other favorite quotes, I am going to post it first:
“I am a millennial. Generation Y. Born between the birth of AIDS and 9/11 give or take. They call us the Global Generation. We are known for our entitlement and narcissism. Some say it’s because we’re the first generation where every kid gets a trophy just for showing up. Others think it’s because social media allows us to post when we fart or have a sandwich for all the world to see. But it seems our one defining trait is a numbness to the world. An indifference to suffering. I know I did anything I could to not feel. Sex, drugs, booze. Just take away the pan. Take away my mother and my asshole father and the press and all the boys I loved who wouldn’t love me back. Hell, I was gang raped and two days later, I was back in class like nothing had ever happened. I mean that must have hurt like hell, right? Most people never get over stuff like that and I was like, "Let’s go get jamba juice!” I would give everything I have or will ever have just to feel pain again. To hurt. Thank God for Fiona and her herb garden. One advantage of being kind of dead is that you don’t have to sweat warning labels. There was this one brown liquid that I thought made my nipples tingle for a second, but I think it was psychosomatic because I polished off the res of it and didn’t feel shit. I tried every eye of newt and wing of fly until I found something that made me not look like Marilyn Manson anymore. And that’s the rub of all this, isn’t it? I can’t feel shit. I can’t feel anything. We think that pain is the worst feeling. It isn’t. How could anything be worse than this eternal silence inside of me. I used to not eat for days or eat like crazy then stick my fingers down my throat. Now no mater how much I binge, I can’t fill this hole inside me. I can’t take it anymore. I think I’m going batshit. I need to do something.“
And now for the rest of my favorite quotes:
"I’m starting to understand why you’re so enormous.” - Madame LaLaurie to Queenie when eating fast food
“I dragged my ass all the way here from Detroit to be with my quote sister witches, and instead, I’m sitting in the fast food parking lot at 3 in the morning with a racist.” - Queenie
“This was a mistake, I ran out of sleeping pills, this was a bad idea.” - Fiona to the Axeman
“Oh, uh, Cordelia wants to see you. Uh , actually that would be impossible, but she does want to talk.”-Madison
“Hmm, not surprised living over there in Wonderbread Land. They probably feed you Shake N Bake and watermelon for dessert.” Marie Laveau to Queenie about her never having Gumbo
“Voodoo doll belong in the house of voodoo.” - Marie Laveau to Queenie (I loved this quote)
“So if she even thinks you’re next.. You’re next.” - Cordelia to Zoe about Fiona
“Kill her once, kill her good, kill her dead.” - Cordelia to Zoe about Fiona
“Whose tongue is this?” - Spaulding
“I could have saved a fortune if I would’ve seen the bitch in broad daylight.” - Madame LaLaurie to Sally about a lotion that a woman named Madame Lafayette said took ten years off her face
“My cherie, it’s been such a busy day, I forgot to apply my Retin-A.” = Marie Laveau to LaLaurie
