Answer: Tate

In 1994, Constance, Tate, Addy, and Larry gather around the table for dinner. Tate offers to say grace while Larry expresses his delight at his willingness to join their new family. Instead of a real prayer, Tate criticizes their circumstances, especially Larry's apparent blindness towards the fact that Constance doesn't really love him; she just wants back in the house she once owned. Tate says that Larry's family burned themselves alive upon the discovery of his infidelity and Larry explains that there are sacrifices people have in the name of love. Tate also blames Larry for the death of Beau, his sibling.
The next morning, high on drugs, Tate finally cracks. He dresses up in his trench coat, gathers his guns, and before visiting his school with the intent to shoot his fellow students, he stops in at Larry's office with a can of gasoline.

Answer: He sees a picture of him in her house

Ben visits Constance and the baby next door and she says that she wouldn't want to burden him with taking care of the child until he's gotten over the tragedy. She is extremely hesitant to give him up and Ben won't have it. Finally she opens up about the truth; he shouldn't bring him back into the other house because the forces therein will do horrible things. She says he's blind, and that's when he sees the picture of Tate and Addie on the countertop. All this time, he never realized that Constance was his mother.

Ben reveals to Viv that one of the babies is not his, something that she didn't know. The reason he was furious with her during his last visit was because he was convinced it was Luke's doing. Ben says that they'll find answers and although there are a few legal hoops to jump through, they'll be able to get her out. She says, however, that she won't go back to the house.
Constance is visited by two detectives about Travis' body as it's been found in a park in the city. She's genuinely shocked and the cops believe his body was dumped there.

Answer: Chad

In the kitchen, Viv tells Marcy and Moira about her encounter with the past owner of the house, Nora, based on the picture of her that Violet saw in the attic. Marcy reasons that she must've had a granddaughter and Moira says that perhaps everyone has a doppelganger. Vivian is sure, however, that she saw what she saw. Marcy decides to leave because she needs to contact Mr. Escandarian who has, mysteriously gone missing. Viv thinks that maybe she really is going crazy.
The previous year, Chad spoke with a friend about his issues with Patrick; he knew Patrick cheated on him and he'd been sleepwalking. Further, Patrick seemed uneasy whenever they discussed adoption. When Chad found Patrick's open computer, he discovered that his boyfriend had an interest in S&M gear, so his friend suggested that perhaps a preemptive strike was in order.

Marcy holds an open house in order to find the Harmons a buyer and she shows it to a wealthy businessman named Mr. Escandarian who shows clear interest not only in the building, but in Moira. He mentions that he'd be adding in a swimming pool and knocking out the gazebo and Moira is thrilled with the idea as he'd need to dig her bones out of the yard to do it.
Mr. Escandarian asks what the catch is and while Marcy tries to hide the truth, Viv comes out and says it candidly-- the house has a past of gruesome murders. He says he's still interested and leaves his card. Marcy asks Viv why they don't just include tickets to the murder tour with each showing and Viv thinks they should take the tour, at least to know what actually happened in their house.

Viv brings up the one woman who appeared a few weeks earlier who left the house early because she was spooked; she doesn't know that it was actually the first owner of the house. Marcy suggests getting a fluffer, someone they can hire to give a dash of style to the house so that they can garner interest and make it look like a magazine spread. All-in-all, it'll be better PR. Marcy brings up the fact that their house was egged the previous night; Ben ran outside to find two kids, both of whom were killed in 1978, but they disappeared when he chased them around the house. Viv agrees with Marcy that they have an image problem and recommends either an English woman she knows or a young gay man. They go with the cheaper gay man and give him a call.

Answer: Acute Anxiety

Ben explains that he doesn't know where Hayden is but her sister is very concerned considering the pregnancy and Hayden's scheme to come to L.A. to convince Ben to love her. She fears that Hayden might be in a hole somewhere. That's when Hayden comes into the room explaining that she's fine-- there's nothing to worry about. She didn't return her sister's calls because she thought she wanted to borrow money. The answers seem to satisfy both the detective and her sister who promptly leave. Ben asks for real answers and Hayden says that she was crazy on Halloween. She doesn't want to be seen that way. In fact, she's devoted to being a good friend to him whether or not they end up together. Also, she had the abortion.
Later in the day, Ben is approached in his office by none other than Elizabeth Short. She says she has a horrible endless foreboding feeling and that she does things with men that she shouldn't. Although he thinks she has an acute anxiety disorder, he decides to speak to her anyways, even though she has no appointment. He says she can come in the next day at noon.

34 Why does Hayden want to drive Vivian mad?
Answer: To claim one of her babies

Nora wonders why she would kill herself but soon she believes it was because of her baby. Hayden says that she lost her baby too and they both agree that it's unfair that Vivian could have two babies. Hayden suggests that they each take one of the twins-- the babies have to have mothers and you can't raise a baby in the loony bin.
Viv, tired in the dark house, cleans up before bed and walks down the hall before the ball from the attic is rolled to her feet. She turns on the light, but there's no one there. That's when the lights flicker out and a vase falls from the mantle-- Hayden's doing.

She also says that she and Marcy are going to take the murder tour so that Viv can give full disclosure about the house. She can't justify selling without letting the buyer know.

When he leaves, Vivian angrily speaks to Ben about showing up at the house and he explains that he needs his study for patients. They need the money and it's too expensive to rent an office. She says it's too hard to look at him but he can use the house as long as he leaves immediately after his last session of the day.
Upstairs, Violet imagines using a razor blade to cut her wrists and throat. She hears Tate behind her, asking if she's scared
Ben's newest patient, Derek, is afraid of urban legends of all sorts. Most specifically, he's afraid of 'Piggy Man', a hog butcher from Chicago who used to wear a pig mask, snorting in the slaughterhouse. He fell one day and the hogs tore him apart. His customers started to die and if you stand in front of a mirror saying "Here piggy-pig-pig" he'll come for you. Derek never did, but he's afraid he might.

37 What does Hayden write on Viv's bathroom mirror?
Answer: ASK HIM

Viv runs a relaxing bath before her phone starts to ring-- it's Hayden. The two of them speak with one another and Viv says that it's time for them to speak. Hayden brings up Boston and Viv says that while she may find it hard to believe, she understands what Hayden is trying to do. Hayden responds that there was just something about her that Ben wouldn't find in Viv, a particular freshness and vitality. Hayden reminds her to ask about Boston before hanging up. Viv, shutting off the faucet, sees a message written in the fog on the bathroom mirror: 'ASK HIM'.
Running downstairs, Viv tells Ben that Hayden is in the house. Ben says that she's overreacting, but she thinks that she's acting as expected considering the circumstances. Viv wants to call the cops but Ben stops her-- he knows that having ten cop cars outside the murder house on Halloween won't get them any closer to selling the house. He takes a knife from the block in the kitchen and heads downstairs alone.

38 Who cuts themselves while carving a pumpkin?
Answer: Ben

Speaking with Tate in his study, Ben says that he's grateful for helping his family during the home invasion, but he needs to explain why he was in the house. Tate says he was there to spend time with Violet, but she blew him off. Ben says he can't see him in this house because of his relationship with his daughter. Ben says he has an opening and they can meet somewhere for coffee.
In the kitchen, Viv speaks with a security officer, Luke, about an electronic system able to be rigged around the house. After he leaves, Viv finds Moira carving pumpkins in the dining room. Moira asks for Halloween off to visit her mother to which she agrees. When Viv places the pumpkin outside, she finds two men, Chad and Patrick, standing at the gate complaining about the flowers. She assumes they're the fluffers and when they introduce themselves, she invites them in.
Chad, Patrick, Viv, and Ben spend time carving pumpkins in the kitchen and they all discuss possible changes to be made to the house. Chad and Patrick bicker and complain that the gazebo in the garden should be removed before Ben accidentally cuts himself with a carving tool. Patrick takes him upstairs to stitch it up.

39 What state is Constance from?
Answer: Virginia

The family begins to move their things in and Viv is worried about Violet and he schooling. Viv is also worried about the creepiness of the house; people DID die in it. Ben thinks that the house is a good thing for the family. Viv says that she's trying really hard to forgive him, but it's really hard to do. At school, Violet is attacked by one of the popular girls, Leah, for smoking outside the building. The girl vows revenge.
Viv starts taking the wallpaper out of the one room, revealing bits of a mural. She is shocked, however, to see Adelaide behind her, warning her that she's going to die in the house. A voice is heard down the hall and it's Adelaide's mother, Constance, who also happens to the be their neighbour. Constance sends Addy home and starts to talk. Viv asks how she got in, Constance says the back door was open but Addy will always find a way in; she's always been attracted to this house. Constance seems to make herself at home, speaking casually about her life and her past in Virginia, stealing silverware, and discussing her Addy. She also gives a housewarming gift-- sage to burn and cleanse the spirits of the house.
That night, Vivian burns the sage and finds the door to the attic. To her surprise, she finds a rubber fetish suit hanging up in the room. Ben jokes about it and throws it into the trash.

40 Who ultimately ends up taking care of the Harmons' living child?
Answer: Constance

Constance speaks to the private investigators once again, this time about her discovery of Ben's corpse, hanging in the lobby. She explains the exact opposite of what actually occurred. Rather than being afraid, she was somewhat careless toward Ben's death. While Ben was reunited with Viv and Violet in the afterlife, Constance made it her duty to locate the baby, her grandson. Constance also found Violet's body in the crawlspace, though she never said it, but she did go into the basement to retrieve the infant from Hayden's arms. Constance told her that Viv wanted her to look after the child outside of the mansion, out of harm's way, and while Hayden didn't want to give up the child, Travis distracted her by slitting her throat and handing off the child. Constance explains that Violet probably ran off with the baby, never to be seen again. When the detectives leave, Constance heads upstairs to the mirrored closet to check on her grandchild.
