Watch “Scream Queens” Season 1 Episode 3
We already know Boone is in cahoots with the killer.
While last week left me feeling a tad jipped, I feel as if “Scream Queens” is starting to find where it wants to be as a series, as well as finding a way into my heart. But those were just the beginning of this episode’s many delights. The two have Tasers that Zayday’s grandmother bought them to stay safe, only they aren’t safe because the Red Devil appears in aisle three, only it’s not actually the Red Devil, it’s an impostor, which the girls learn after Grace Tasers him in the crotch. See? This structure is really well done in the sense that it staggers the supporting storylines really well in the overall layout of the episode. Here’s this girl who goes from wearing a neckbrace and being a complete misfit and outcast, but she’s still herself.
“I think Chanel might be the baby, just because I don’t think she’s the killer, and I just think Chanel’s so important that she has to be the killer or the baby!” At this point we were treated to a demonstration of luminol, a glowing chemical that revealed a blood stain on Chanel No. 2′ carpet. In other words, this scene was more awesome than any of us deserved. “I’ve never been one of the cool kids before”, Michele said. However all goes haywire when the boys roam the streets of Greek row where the Red Devil is out to kill with his chainsaw and cuts off the arms of a few members in Chad’s frat pack. They attribute this to her drinking again and mention that she was dating Chad, who even came to Thanksgiving past year. This cult-like group has a connection with the 1995 Kappa house incident and that is why Wes is in town, not to protect Grace but to participate in the take down of Kappa.
In the Kappa house Gigi and Wes share a salad date with third wheel, Munsch. With the Red Devil mascot no longer appropriate, Dean Munsch announces that Coney, a mascot stolen from a local ice cream parlor, will assume those duties effective immediately.
Grace and Pete are also hot on the case in this episode, where they will pay a visit to a mysterious woman that has ties Kappa’s past.
As you can guess from the title, there is a lot of screaming, but not in a scary way. The mother was basically Cordelia from Buffy, Real Housewife edition.
Scream Queens is pastiche of horror classics, high school comedies, and mid-nineties nostalgia. Wes runs in and is injured, but they both survive and the Red Devil slips away unnoticed. Yes, that Charles Manson. She did bring up the point that the killer is working with someone else. All of this happening in an episode titled “Chainsaw” makes for an interesting plot development. However, isn’t it a little too obvious to suspect her? The sorority sisters are all stupid, materialistic and obsessed with technology. To keep everyone safe, or whatever.
“Do you know Swensen, the frozen dinners?” Do you also ask why Itchy is always tusslin’ with Scratchy? Before the rally, Chanel approaches Chad and Earl Grey (Lucien Laviscount), begging Chad to take her back. So, to Chanel No. 5′s utter horror, a new Chanel was born.
The former “Glee” star took to Instagram on September 30th to show off Hester’s very glamorous new look, and gone are the shell suits, greasy hair and that terrible, bad neck brace. “I’m sort of over this whole serial murder thing that’s going on right now”. Wow, with these two newcomers the residents of this sorority were almost in the double digits! I know you all can’t be psych majors, but asking this of him is PSYCHOPATHIC!
