American Horror Story: Roanoke ‘Chapter 6’

Last week’s episode ‘Chapter 5‘ we learned of Edward Mott who built the Roanoke House, however  during construction there were a few gruesome incidents. The Colony still continues to haunt the Millers. Matt and Shelby also find themselves on the wrong side of the very odd Polk family and the matriarch Mamma Polk (Frances Conroy).

 

Roanoke ‘Chapter 6’

Chapter 6 starts with the following statement:

My Roanoke Nightmare was the television success story of 2015. With minimal promotion, the show garnered 23 million views by its finale, topping that week’s airing of Sunday night football, Empire, and The Walking Dead. Eager to capitalise on the success, the network asked the producer to create at follow-up series.

The Producer of My Roanoke Nightmare Sidney James (Cheyenne Jackson) armed with a film crew ambushes Frank, the network president, with a surprise on-camera pitch. Sidney details the documentation od the reality that the audiences are craving, including social media and marketing, he wants to reunite the Millers and the two actors who played them for his new his idea “Return To Roanoke: Three Days in Hell“, which he wants to be a hidden camera reality show that will be filmed during the “Blood Moon” and capturing the real reactions to the fake scares he intends to set up. Sidney also mentions  that he brought the Roanoke house from Matt (André Holland) and Shelby (Lily Rabe) . He emerges from the meeting with the greenlight for 13 episodes, however, its short-lived when Sidney’s assistant Diana Cross (Shannon Lucio) tells him Shelby refuses to participate.

10 weeks before the “Blood Moon” Sidney sets up an interview with Shelby in Ojai. Since the show, Shelby and Matt have separated and she has been receiving death threats. Shelby had a fling with Dominic Banks (Cuba Gooding Jr.), who played Matt. Shelby insists that Dominic is not to be involved, however, unbeknownst to her, Dominic is already contracted. Two weeks prior to the “Blood Moon the Roanoke house is being fitted with additional cameras and scare gimmicks to create drama. Alissa, a crew member had found a circle of dead fetal pigs to Diana’s and Sidney’s attention, no one knows how they got there. It’s not the work of the Polk family, they have been MIA for weeks.

Agnes Winstead (Kathy Bates), the actress who played “The Butcher” talks about her experience on the show but there is a little more to Agnes’s story, an incident occurred when Agnes terrorised and slashed at bystanders down Hollywood Boulevard, which landed her a stint in a mental health facility and charged with assault. Sidney thinks Agnes is responsible for the fetal pig incident at Roanoke and slaps her with a restraining order. My brain keeps telling me that perhaps Agnes isn’t crazy, but actually possessed by The Butcher while filming the show? Or am I over thinking it?

Another incident has happened at the Roanoke house, this time Greg, one of the crew is cutting wood for the hot tub, when his chainsaw was thrust into his neck, removing his head clean off and obviously killing him. Sidney decides to go ahead with production but Diana is furious and tells Sidney she’s done and speeds off, she films an affidavit about what is happening on the show and why she is leaving. Diana stops and turns the camera around and we see what looks like a Roanoke colonist, she continues to drive when the Piggy man emerges from behind her seat and kills her. Diana’s footage was recovered three months later by police, but her body was never found.

Audrey Tindall (Sarah Paulson), who played Shelby and her new husband Rory Monahan (Evan Peters), who played Edward Mott arrive at the house first, while filming on his phone she catches a glimpse of Agnes who smashes a window. Audrey has been terrorised by Agnes who has been stalking her. When Matt and Lee (Adina Porter) arrive you could cut the tension with a knife.

Another statement appears stating:

Over the next three days during the blood moon, every participant in the series died under mysterious circumstances.

Except for one.

As the night goes on in the house, Shelby tries to reconcile with Matt, while Monet Tumusiime(Angela Bassett), who played Lee, tries to blame method acting as Lee turned her into an alcoholic. When Dominic arrives, Matt sees red and attacks him until the others break it up. Audrey gets out of the shower to find the Piggy man staring at her. Rory,  furious tries to find Piggy man, thinking it’s a set up by Sidney gets hacked to death by the Jane sisters, who finally get to complete their MURDER tableau.

The show never aired and we are told that what we’ve been seeing is the assembled found footage.

Lucifer SN2-EP4 ‘Lady Parts’

 

Last week Lucifer and Decker investigate a gruesome murder after a video of the crime surfaced on social media, and Mamma Morningstar is to live as Charlotte Richards  as her punishment handed down by Lucifer. We also seen Amenadiel really struggling with the loss of his powers.

SN2-EP4 ‘Lady Parts’

It looks like Lucifer (Tom Ellis) and Decker (Lauren German) have another serial killer on their hands this week as they investigate the death of two young women. Lucifer is distracted while in session with Dr Martin (Rachael Harris), he is playing Sex Words with Friends on his first mobile phone with Maze (Lesley-Ann Brandt). Dr Martin tells Lucifer, his distraction could be a barrier for his problems, but Lucifer hears that distraction will help from having to deal with his problem with mamma dearest.

Lucifer isn’t the only one who is distracted and you can see that when they arrive at the crime scene, Lucifer senses that Decker needs to get out and live a little. Charlotte (Tricia Helfer) looking like a Stepford wife is a little frazzled as she throws her failed spicy chicken casserole in the bin, Charlotte tells Maze she has learnt that having sex with her husband renders him mute. But even though it’s worse than hell she gets to be close to her sons.

Ella (Aimee Grarcia) figured out that one of the young girls Daria died from mandrake poisoning. With Decker and Dan (Kevin Alejandro) getting a divorce, she will need to find a new place to live, which Lucifer finds as the perfect distraction and makes some calls on Decker’s behalf. The duo arrives at the house of the last person Daria had spoken with, they are met at the door by a man brandishing a butcher knife and covered in blood… It’s ok he was making sausages. Decker also notices how distracted Lucifer  in frustration he calls Maze to ask her to Chloe out for drinks in hopes it distracts her.

Amenadiel (D.B. Woodside) stops by Dr Martins to return a book, she can tell something is wrong and as a friend, she offers to listen. However, he tells Dr Martin that his problem is physical, that things aren’t working like they used to. Dr Martin thinks that Amenadiel is talking about Amenadiel Jr not standing to attention and tells him to loosen up, if only that was the problem it would be differently easier to fix .

Decker and Lucifer find Daria’s roommate dead in Daria’s apartment with the same triangle stamp on her wrist. Decker rocks up at Lux and wants to go over the lab report, Maze suggests that she and Decker go to the bar that the roommates had been to. It quickly turns into a girls night, and Dr Martin suggests they all share a secret to break the ice. We learn Dr.Martin was a phone sex operator, Ella stole cars, we already know Maze was forged in hell and Decker drops the divorce bomb.

Decker and Lucifer figure out that Daria’s neighbour Lily is responsible for the girl’s deaths.  Maze tells Lucifer that she and Decker are going to be roommates, Lucifer is convinced all the women is his life are ganging up on him. Amenadiel asks Lucifer what he asked their father for in exchange for bringing their mother back to hell. Amenadiel points out that Lucifer hasn’t fulfilled his part of the deal, and Decker’s life could be in grave danger. However, Lucifer doesn’t believe their father would be interested in one little soul….. Decker is driving while talking to a landlord about an apartment, when she is suddenly hit by another car.

Joan reconnects with a drug dealer she once saved on the operating table, who is not trying to get his life back together after being released from prison. It will be interesting see how Joan and Shinwells relationship evolves and if he will be a regular throughout the season 5. Now you know it’s going to be a great episode when Holmes gets himself kidnapped at the start of the episode!

SN5-EP2 ‘Worth Several Cities’

Sherlock (Jonny Lee Miller) manages to get himself kidnapped by a drug dealer who demands holmes to find the men responsible for the killing of his smuggler however the search quickly turns into a search for a very expensive historical antiquity. Holmes refuses payment from El Halcon (Jon Huertas), instead, asking for Quid Pro Quo deal – Sherlock wants the seller of the tainted heroin from last week’s Episode in return for who was responsible for killing Halcon’s smuggler.

Watson (Lucy Liu) get’s ex-drug dealer Shinwell (Nelson Ellis) a job that comes with accommodation, but also asks Watson for one more favour, Shinwell wants’s her to help locate his daughter so he knows she is ok. A North Korean smuggler confesses to everything in a bid to protect his family, but he couldn’t have possibly done it. The Box and meth were stolen from his employer, but the box again disappeared and the thief was killed.

Watson gets a visit from Taiwanese officials asking for Yun Jing Yi, which we learnt is Watson’s Chinese name, the officials offered up $50 million for the box to go to Taiwan. Shinwell finds his daughter by his own means but decides it’s not the right time to enter her life just yet. Holmes and Bell (Jon Michael Hill) the dead thief’s boyfriend and quickly realises that the box was actually “The Imperial Jade Seal of China” (“the seal”). The most sought after antiquity in the world, The Seal is priceless.The investigation leads Sherlock to Wayne Vachs (Ron Rifkin) who, before Sherlock and Joan ambush him, show them a restraining order.

Undeterred Watson and Sherlock return home to regroup, they are visited by Wendy (Annie Q.), the daughter of a very high ranking Chinese official, she reminds them that China has loads more money then Taiwan, and will pay more for said box. Sherlock gets himself invited into Wayne Vach’s office, Vach tell Sherlock he won the seal in an auction, which an expert only know as “C” (Jane Alexander) confirms this is correct. With the seal recovered Holmes puts red ink on it and uses it as a stamp for evidence, which eventually is not a sin against the ancient gods of China. Holmes rules out the Chinese as the direct killers, The murders were committed by Vachs, who has been bankrupted in the mining accident, but would have been awarded a huge construction contract in China had he been able to return their most prized possession, clearly men like him don’t get their hands dirty so one of his security would have done the dirty work.

American Horror Story: Roanoke ‘Chapter 5’

 

Last week The Millers were assisted by some new and old friends in getting Lee’s (Angela Bassett) daughter Flora (Saniyya Sidney) back. We also learnt a little more of the horned woman’s history and we saw the season of the blood moon begin, let find how much more horror the Millers can take in this week’s episode.

 

Roanoke ‘Chapter 5’

This week we learned of Edward Philippe Mott (Evan Peters) an eccentric from Philadelphia, who purchased the house and the grounds as a retreat. Mott filled the house with artwork and had the shakers building the house, craft a series of underground tunnels that led into the woods as an escape, however, during the build several tragic accidents befell the builders. Mott left a wife and heir behind in Philadelphia, to live in the Sappony (Roanoke House) mansion with his black male lover, Guinness (Henderson Wade).

Mott, obsessed with art was devastated when he awoke to find all his beloved art was slashed, a household servants claimed she saw invades from the woods, but Mott doesn’t buy it and locks all the household staff in the root cellar, until they confess, he also dismisses his lover, a slave in his adult size tantrum. The Villagers dragged Mott to his impalement and immolation. Guinness had escaped but was later jailed and never spoke of the house staff that were trapped the root cellar, they were discovered years later as the house was passed down the line of Mott descendants through the centuries, until Dandy Mott the last decedent who dies in 1952.

Matt (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and Shelby (Sarah Paulson) and Flora (Saniyya Sidney) are captured and blindfolded by the Polk family and taken to their house where they find Elias (Denis O’Hare) is being kept alive and has been partially dismembered, Elias is barely conscious but manages to warn Matt that Mumma Polk (Frances Conroy) took his leg. Mamma Polk emerges with jerky and offers it to the Millers, lucky they declined, it was Elias jerky! The Polk family has had a deal with The Butcher (Kathy Bates) for 200 years, The Polks are left in peace in exchange for sacrifices and blood concentrations.

The Polks turn the Millers over to the Butcher, Flora is taken to be killed, but Ambrose (Wes Bentley) attacks his mother instead, pulling her into a pyre. With Mott’s intervention and Lee arriving back at the house at the perfect time, the Miller’s were able to escape the evil of Roanoke, the family fled to a cheap motel with nothing but the clothes on their backs. In her closing testimonial, Shelby mentions she is still haunted by her continuing nightmares.
