![]() Masked Singer: Another Shocking Result as Wrong Contestant Goes Home, Revealing SNL IconĪpparently, the face-hugger nod in last week's episode was a regression, suggesting that this is closer to what the aliens look like in truth. So how did they keep her alive forever? Is she still strictly human until the end? Is she like a pet to them? There's a sentimentality in allowing her to live there, but not have to be a breeder, and yet it appears that her relationship with Thor soured over the years. She's been awarded special immortality in exchange for living there. We've seen it with Calico's story, and this week with our through-line character as Mamie shows up in the breeding facility all adorned in pink. ![]() We already know the aliens have the ability to effectively retard aging and create human immortality. What kind of deal did they make with the bug-eyed aliens? Why are they on Earth? And still, what is Valiant Thor? He doesn't age, and yet he has no alien qualities that we can tell. We learned nothing about them or why they're on the planet. The fact that the writers did absolutely nothing with this except have Thor at the end declare, oh no, they're cool, we can co-exist, made their inclusion even more flummoxing. Well, apparently not, though for no reason whatsoever, there are pod people on the planet and Henry Kissinger is one of them. We'd been wondering what Valiant Thor was, as he appears to be human but clearly isn't. We know Murphy and Falchuk like to throw random things into their "AHS" soup each season, but nothing is more random than the inclusion of a second species of aliens. Meghan McCain Defends Erika Jayne, Trashes Trump Family, Says She Was 'Bullied' Off of The View Honestly, was there any point the aliens weren't in full control? Then, all it took was an alien probing to convince Nixon to resign and keep his mouth shut, if not his dignity or his legacy. This new twist on the Watergate scandal had Mamie emerge from the parking garage as the infamous Deep Throat to sow a story of lies about the Democrats. ![]() When Richard Nixon became reluctant to allow the war to destroy his presidency, he set up a wire tap on Thor's office in the Watergate Hotel. Valiant Thor certainly benefited from his relationship with Mamie Eisenhower. Murphy and Falchuk lean into this, suggesting that the Vietnam War and the moon landing were just two of the first in a long list of distractions designed to keep humans not paying attention to the large number of abductions happening as they try to create the perfect hybrid, and babymaking machine. The theory is that this is our government's way of pulling some shady stuff off while we're looking the other way. Jump onto social media on any given day and you'll see people wondering what we're being distracted from paying attention to with every new gadget, every new sensationalized news story (a la Gabby Petito). Pig Kidney Successfully Transplanted Into Human For First Time One of them is why this season was even run as a "Double Feature."įans have been anticipating some connection between "Death Valley" and the earlier "Red Tide" since this format was announced, but it truly played out like a double feature at the theater, just two separate stories that happened to run back-to-back. With this being the final episode, we suppose there are no chances that any of our questions will be answered, so we'll instead focus on those WTF moments that we're still thinking about. We'd shoot first and ask questions never. ![]() We won't open our doors for our human neighbors in need, Cody Fern's Valiant Thor tells Mamie at one point, so why should they believe we'd ever welcome them. Sure, the aliens have had us beat in technology for generations, but it's how we treat each other that really sticks in their craw. ![]() It's a pretty heavy-handed message, drilled home repeatedly throughout this final episode, with the conclusion being that we're just not that impressive a species, on the intergalactic scale. We allow ourselves to get distracted by petty squabbles and minor issues while the big picture flies right over our heads. We were a nation of dreamers, looking to the stars, and we threw it all away to share memes, as Jamie (Rachel Hilson) laments on the fake moon landing site. Faking the moon landing was about distraction from what the aliens have been doing for decades, as was the Vietnam war and even our smartphones. It quickly became clear that this half-season has been about the power of distraction to derail humanity's positive potential. Her story came full circle by the end, in a way, as she became the beating heart of the whole four-part saga, and perhaps came to represent humanity in its entirety. That connection was made via a through character, namely Sarah Paulson's Mamie Eisenhower.
