Wow, American Horror Story Had Too Many F*cked-Up Moments to Count This Week

Updated on 10/9/2017 at 12:50 PM

Are you OK? Is everyone OK? We know the answer is probably no, because this week's episode of American Horror Story really did a number. In what must be one of the most f*cked-up episodes to date, we meet a "gimp" who's hanging on some hooks in an attic, watch a centipede crawl out of Ally's neck, and watch the group of clowns plunge a bunch of nails into a poor guy's head. And that's just the tip of the emotionally scarring iceberg. Quite frankly, it all makes Emma Roberts's brutal on-air stabbing look like child's play. If you can bear it, let's all rehash the most disturbing moments from this week's episode together. Maybe we can process it as a group and get some closure.

When the Term "Fake News" Gets Tossed Around

Real subtle, guys.

When Kai Abruptly Slaps That One Guy in His Cult

Damn, that's cold.

When Kai Says, "The Perception of Credibility Leads to the Perception of Power"

This . . . seems . . . to make sense . . .

When Ivy Reveals Herself as a Member of the Cult

We could see right through you, girl!

When Ally Looks in the Mirror and Starts Scratching at Her Neck

When a Centipede Crawls Out of Her Neck and Back Into Her Neck

When Ally Gives Ivy a Sex Toy

When Ivy Says, "I Hate This Country and What It's Become"

Sorry. But also not sorry.

And Then She Says, "I Hate My F*cking Wife For Letting It Happen"

When They Show That News Anchor and He's Wearing Latex Gloves and Sucking His Fingers

You eatin' wings in bed, kind sir?

And Then He Says, "There's a Gimp in the Attic!"

Oh, so . . . no wings then. OK.

And Then They Go up to the Attic

You just KNOW Ryan Murphy put some kind of crazy, f*cked-up sh*t up in that attic. You just KNOW.

When You See the Gimp and It's a Guy in a Leather Mask and a Diaper

When You Realize He's Hanging by Hooks That Are Stuck in His Skin

REALLY? REALLY?!?!

And Then Kai Kills the Gimp and Then Everyone Brutally Murders the News Anchor

When You Realize Meadow Is Not Dead but Is at the Bottom of a Hole in Her Own Yard

When Meadow Bangs on Ally's Window and Is Like, "Your Wife's in the Cult!"

When Kai's Like, "Come on — We're Going to Take Care of a Problem"

Can we, like, just have a moment to decompress? Please?

When Kai Brings Out the Nail Gun

Oh, NO.

When He Tells Ivy to Put a Nail in the Camera Guy's Head

AND THEN IVY ACTUALLY DOES IT

She just put a nail in that guy's head. SHE JUST PUT A NAIL IN THAT GUY'S HEAD!

And Then EVERYONE Puts a Nail in His Head

When Beverly Makes Kai Share His Backstory, and He's Like, "My Parents Are Dead"

Yeah. Duh.

When We Watch His Mom Blow Her Brains Out

Haven't we been through ENOUGH?

When We Realize Kai's Older Brother Is Actually Dr. Vincent

And Then Dr. Vincent Is the One Who Decides to Lock the Bodies in the Bedroom

More like bedTOMB — am I right?

And Then We See the Rotting Corpses Like 100 Times

You know what? Bye.
