Scream Queens 1×08 Recap: Unmasked


Scream-Queens-1x08-3

Red Devil officially revealed, Grace searches for answers about her mother, more red devil victims at KKT and is Zayday is the number one suspect.

The episode kicked off with an ass kicking by Dean Munsch to the two red devils and Supreme Court Justice Anthony Scalia. There was a lot of humor and homage to cult horror classics. The first throwback to one of the first horror movies, “Psycho.”  Dean Munsch outwitting her first attack by baiting the Red Devil towards the shower. Only to be surprised by a second Red Devil and later a masked Supreme Justice Anthony Scalia.

I don’t know about you, but there was something iconic about Jaime Lee Custis’s character delivering an ass kicking that had us rooting for Dean Munsch, just as we did in the Halloween movies. Dean Munsch shows growth through out this episode, and finally shows her first hint of humanity.

The death of Jennifer, the candle vlogger is the death that finally pushes Dean Munsch to shut down all activities at Wallace University, proclaiming, “Congratulations Red Devil killer, you won.”

She also assists Gracie with the name of the KKT sister that passed away in the bathtub, Susan Doyle. What does the name mean? Well this means that Susan Doyle is not the mother of Grace. We also learn that Gigi was admitted into the asylum, revealed by a painting with her face along with two infants [one boy and one girl].  Grace begins to tie together the loose ends in the story of Susan Doyle.

Grace’s mother is revealed to be Bethany Stevens, and that her mother had hooked up with her father [Wes] during the dated party in 1995. Chanel divulges more news like how her mother did not die in a fire [as Grace’s father had her believe all of her life], but, in fact, Grace’s mother died in a car accident.

We see a familiar face in the last 5 minutes of the episode, Boone. I was beginning to wonder when he would make his appearance again. “All I do is work out and kill people.” Boone says while working out in the gym. He picks up the photo to have a conversation with the other Red Devil. Later, it’s revealed that Gigi  was in fact the Supreme Justice mask [as I suspected]. Boone goes on to encourage the other Red Devil that Gigi is the weak link and that they need to get rid of her.

Things to Remember: 

  • Gigi is holding a boy and a girl in the painted photo.
  • One Red Devil is Boone. So leaves one ‘girl’ perhaps as the other red devil.
  • Gigi and Wes have history. Both being at the KKT party in 1995.
