Major Spoilers are included in this episode review. Please Read With Caution.

After “Return to Murder House”, I’ve lost interest in the season. Not by a lot, but now that the best episode of the season is behind us, the only thing left to do is catch up with the present. Michael will destroy the world, and I want to see how he does it.

Cordelia requests a meeting with Papa Legba. Dinah Stevens, the current Voodoo Queen, accepts to do this for the Supreme if she is offered $100,000. Witches are expensive these days, but again, she did feed a heart to a cheating man and made him only attracted to his wife. That takes serious magic to do.

Papa Legba arrives, alongside Nan (OMG!), and is willing to do Cordelia’s request—trap Michael in the underworld for all eternity—if she gives up all of her girls to her. Nan seconds his demand because she misses her friends. I LOVE HER!

The Supreme refuses the deal, then Papa Legba vanishes. He does not negotiate. You either take what he deals on the table or you walk. Either way, Dinah is getting $100,000.

Mallory and Coco are explored further in this episode. It turns out Mallory is destined to become the next Supreme after Cordelia passes. According to Zoe, it is Mallory who take up the reigns of the Coven and not Michael. This makes the whole interaction between Mallory and Michael earlier in the season a lot more clearer. Coco’s abilities have grown from checking for gluten and now have evolved into figuring out exact calories in food.

Madison (Emma Roberts) goes back to Hollywood to recruit a frenemy witch named Bubbles, who can read minds. The mind reader teams up with Myrtle to expose the warlocks’ true intentions, which worked out better than I expected. These males are so stupid to have fallen for the ruse… no wonder the females rule the wiccan world.

Mallory resurrects John Henry, the warlock who was killed for trying to stop Michael. He confirms everything and tells the witches that Ms. Mead who burned him alive.

The Coco and Ms. Mead was performed perfectly. I thought Coco was in serious trouble, but luckily those random men in suits were able to get the jump on Ms. Mead. Well, not luck, the whole thing was planned. But I felt like anyone could’ve played Coco’s part in the plan, but whatever let’s burn them all!

The burning of the warlocks and Ms. Mead at the stake was a satisfying scene! I can’t wait to see how Michael reacts to the death of the only woman he loves. He is going to unleash everything on the Coven for what they did.

There wasn’t enough Emma Roberts, but we spent the majority of last week’s episode with her, so I’ll let it pass this time. If it isn’t obvious, I am a huge fan of Emma Roberts and her character Madison. Overall, an okay episode, but I’m sure it’ll pick back up next week.
