In the previous episode of American Horror Story: Apocalypse, Michael Langdon uncovered Ms. Venable’s disregard for orders, Mr. Gallant killed his grandmother and we learned that the witches from Coven and the spirit from Murder House are both inhabiting the outpost. What does this next installment have in store? Let’s find out as we recap American Horror Story: Apocalypse episode 3 ‘Forbidden Fruit!’
Confessionals
Langdon revealed, in a sexually suggestive manner, to both Timothy and Gallant that they would be spared from punishment. Because the future of humanity rested upon their shoulders. Langdon then began to interview Mallory, Coco’s assistant and he got her to acknowledge that she wished to kill Coco. In discomfort at Langdon’s questioning techniques, Mallory attempted to storm out of the room, but Langdon held her back. As a result, Mallory unleashed some sort of power stored within her, which knocked over most of the objects in the room and extinguished the fireplace.
Blood Rituals
Langdon was performing a ritual involving cutting himself open and bleeding inside of a pentagram. He was talking to Satan and revealed that he thought he had killed all of the witches in society but one, presumably Mallory, had escaped. Mead was recounting her past experiences on Halloween to Venable, Mead had realized that she is not actually human and all of her memories were planted in her mind. Venable confirmed this, and Mead proposed a new plan of action. Kill everyone else at the outpost, take Langdon’s computer, find the location of the Sanctuary, and make the journey there by themselves. The alarm sounded, marking another breach of the outpost’s perimeter.
New Arrivals
Mead found a box of apples inside of the carriage that arrived at the outpost. She believed that they were a sign from God to go forth with their plan to kill everyone. Venable agreed, assuming the apples were poisoned and they decided to have a dinner party, so that all of the guests would eat them at the same time. The perimeter alarm went off again, as Coco’s boyfriend, Brock, had survived the bombings and found his way to the outpost. Venable announced a Halloween costume party in a couple of days.
Party Time
At the party, Coco seduced a costumed man, who was revealed to be her boyfriend Brock. In her private bedroom, Brock stabbed Coco through the head, killing her instantly. Venable gifted everyone with an apple that she had poisoned with snake venom, and all partook in eating them. As a result everyone vomited and died. Venable and Mead went to visit Langdon, as he refused to come to the party. Venable ordered Mead to shoot Langdon, but Mead was unable to and she shot Venable dead instead. Langdon unveiled that the poison apple plan was his own. Langdon also revealed that Mead was built on his orders and modeled after his mother. The three main witches (from Coven) Cordelia, Myrtle and Madison arrived at the outpost and quickly revived Coco, Mallory and Dinah. Madison hinted that she has a previous relationship with Mallory.
