AHS: Double Feature Trivia

1. When, according to Valiant Thor, is the alien-human hybrid likely to be perfected?

From Quiz "The Future Perfect"

Answer: 2021

In 1972, Richard Nixon laments the ongoing struggles of the human-alien agreement while protestors storm the White House gates. Valiant Thor reminds him that the war is performing an important function; while the American people are distracted by a war, they don't notice all the people going missing. They knew the experimentation would take a while, but the first successful hybrid, per their estimates, wouldn't be ready until 2021. Valiant Thor suggests that they have a fifty-year plan of distractions, and those can come in many forms. As Henry Kissinger leaves the Oval Office, he checks the mirror and readjusts his skin suit.

From Quiz "Inside"

Answer: Richard Nixon

In Palm Springs, California in 1963, former President Dwight D. Eisenhower attempts to play golf, coincidentally at the same course where he received the fateful news of a crash landing in the desert during his presidency. This time, he's spoken to by Richard Nixon, his former Vice President, who claims that John F. Kennedy should not be trusted with information about the alien treaty. Eisenhower claims he's just angry because JFK beat him in the election. No matter what, Kennedy will find out the truth, they just need to get ahead of it. It's because of this that they head to the White House, and in the Oval Office Dwight hands over the files.

From Quiz "Take Me to Your Leader"

Answer: New Mexico

Putting on a record while setting the table for dinner, Maria Wycoff sees the lights start to flicker. The year is 1954 and she and her family live in Albuquerque, New Mexico. While her son, Timothy, plays outside, a pair of dust devils materialize in the desert next to the house. She only realizes something is horribly amiss when her record player scratches to a stop and begins playing backwards; the hands on the clock on the wall spin in reverse. By the time she looks back outside to search for her son, all that remains is a blinding light from the sky.

From Quiz "Winter Kills"

Answer: Chief Burelson's

As a fishing boat leaves Provincetown to start work for the day, it appears as though they've collided with something out in the water. The captain checks what might have snagged in the propellor to find the body of Provincetown's police chief stuck in the blades, waterlogged, having been dumped into the ocean after Alma killed her. Provincetown's city council meets to deal with the banalities of local concerns and it's there that Holden Vaughn exercises the little power he has over his hometown. Trooper Remy of the Massachusetts police steps forward at this time to start the investigation into Chief Burelson's death. Holden has no choice but to comply with what she needs.

From Quiz "Blood Buffet"

Answer: Five years

Five years ago, in the month of October, the Chemist drove up the cape to Provincetown to meet with Holden Vaughn, the real estate agent and interior designer for many of the town's most chic homes. The Chemist, claiming to have gotten out of a messy divorce, was in the market for a quiet place to focus on her work. Holden wasn't interested in anything short of the curious truth when he asked her for her real motivation, believing it to be meth, considering the locals, but the Chemist, claiming to have a ph.d from Harvard, claimed meth was below her pay grade. She was just looking for some quiet, and that's why she took the house. Bringing her cases into her new home, she set up her lab and started getting to work. Making the pills was no trouble at all.

From Quiz "Thirst"

Answer: Hyannis

Harry finds Doris scrubbing their daughter in the shower. Though it appears nothing is wrong, at least to Harry, Doris informs him that Alma was in the nearby graveyard sucking the blood from the entrails of a dead rabbit. She's taking her to the doctor; something is clearly wrong. At the same time, Chief Burelson knocks on the Gardners' door. What with the murders along the cape, it seems only reasonable to follow up on leads, and she's received calls from locals regarding Alma being seen in the neighbourhood, covered in blood. She asks Harry and Doris if she can bring Alma in to the station-- alone-- though no one is too keen to let this questioning occur. Doris, in an effort to protect her daughter, tries to block the chief from coming upstairs, but it's then that she suffers a severe cramp as a result of her pregnancy. An ambulance is called. Fortunately, the baby is okay. It appears that false contractions have occurred, brought on by stress. The doctor advises that Doris stay under hospital supervision for four or five days, much to her dismay. Harry sends Alma out to grab something from the vending machine while they talk about this turn of events, but on the way out, it seems clear that Alma is more interested in the IV bags of blood on a cart outside instead of any normal food. Harry sees the benefit in Doris staying at the hospital in Hyannis since Provincetown gives her nothing but anxiety. She insists that he and Alma stay in a motel; he one-ups her, suggesting he'll bring Alma back to New York instead. This is a lie, however. He drives himself and his daughter back along the Cape and forces her to admit she took the pill. It's a talk that forces both of them to come to terms with their situation. Harry asks her to stop taking the pill, but she says she only will if he stops as well.

From Quiz "Pale"

Answer: Rewrite his entire pilot episode

Harry loads his family into the car but the minute he turns the keys in the ignition he starts to have vivid hallucinations. As his pupils dilate, he realizes he needs to collect his computer immediately and head inside. The whole story has revealed itself to him. As he composes his work, Alma heads to the dining room and practices her fiddle. Frustrated that she can't get the composition correct, she worries that she'll never get it. She tells Doris that she saw her father take medication to get his work done and Harry, hearing this (true) accusation, lashes out. Alma heads to her room while Doris argues with her husband. She insists on leaving-- Harry did, after all, kill an intruder in their sunroom-- but Harry has an outline for his second episode, not to mention he's already completely revised the first. He insists on another day or two, but the argument doesn't end with any sort of solution.

From Quiz "Inside"

Answer: Marilyn Monroe

Kennedy is shocked and dismayed by the truth. Eisenhower allowed the alien treaty to occur, and this meant that he allowed the aliens to abduct and experiment on humans-- five thousand people per year-- in exchange for the safety of all others and increasingly advanced technology. Nixon suggests there's nothing much more to it besides continuing to assert dominance in the world. It doesn't sit right with Kennedy, however, who spends a night with Marilyn Monroe and tells her the awful truth. She isn't bothered by it though. She explains that one night she woke up in bed to hear weird noises and find a frightening teddy bear sitting by her bed. She'd never been so scared in her life. She suggests that the American people expect no less than the truth, and that's what he needs to think about.

From Quiz "Take Me to Your Leader"

Answer: His head explodes

Racing inside, Maria rushes to the phone and dials the operator only to hear her son's voice telling her not to be afraid. She has reason to be, however, as she's lifted from the floor and held to the ceiling by an unnatural force. Something that appears to be her son enters the home and asks her to take his hand. Maria's husband, Charles, returns home from work to find the house in shambles. Maria, or something like her, is in the living room levitating inches above the floor. With a quick motion of her hand, Charles' head explodes.

From Quiz "Thirst"

Answer: That she will never need to hunt for sustenance

Back in the house in Provincetown, Harry sits in front of his computer without an idea. Realizing his reliance on the pill, he takes the bag out of the trash and pops one into his mouth. Alma, standing nearby the entire time, holds out her hand for one as well, and he's forced to give her one. That was the deal. At The Muse, the pair order steak-- very rare-- as Harry admits to her that he hasn't always been the best father. Despite this, he aims to be hands-on in helping her navigate their new life. While he can stockpile scripts for a few months on the pill, Alma has to play consistently, so she doesn't get the opportunity to have a break from her needs. All she wants to do is play music. In fact, she wants to know why they don't just leave Doris behind since she doesn't have a speck of talent or meaningful aspiration. Harry refuses to let this happen, however, and chastises his daughter for thinking this way. The most important thing is that Harry will protect Alma and bring her what she needs to survive; she must never get her own blood. Alma lets him know she's already hungry.

From Quiz "Cape Fear"

Answer: Schoolteacher

The Gardners arrive at their home away from home, an old house near the water's edge in Provincetown's village. They're greeted by Martha, who looks after the house for the Browns, upon their arrival, and she cheerily brings them inside. Alma tells her parents that the house looks haunted; the inside doesn't do much to dispel the thought. Harry is in town to use the house as a base for his writing ventures; as a screenwriter he seeks inspiration from Provincetown in its off-season. Doris, meanwhile, is pregnant. Normally a schoolteacher, she hopes to use the house to wind down; the Browns have given her free reign to decorate the house based on her interior decorating Instagram posts (within a budget, of course). Alma brings her fiddle in from the car while Martha warns the family not to go swimming near the seals (not that they would; it's too cold), not to leave the windows open during a nor'easter, and not to try to imitate a Boston accent. She hands over the keys and heads on her way. Harry heads to the market to grab supplies while Doris unpacks.

From Quiz "The Future Perfect"

Answer: Mamie Eisenhower

In 1972, Gordon Liddy arrives at the White House to hear out Nixon. The President claims that the 'powers that be' want him dead. It isn't because the aliens wanted him to have the lead, but because he could be a scapegoat. He asks that that Valiant Thor's room in the Watergate Hotel be bugged. They'll get the proof they need. As the plans are set into motion, Mamie Eisenhower ends up in a parking garage in Washington D.C., ready to relinquish the necessary information. She says that she shall only be known as 'Deep Throat'. Mamie later reveals her recent goings-on to Valiant Thor and he is delighted with her interference as it allows the aliens to avoid killing Nixon; too many politicians have died lately.

From Quiz "Gaslight"

Answer: She'll never have another pill

Harry finds the truth out from Doris and the day after finding Alma with the baby, he has no choice but to put the fear into his daughter. Despite the newborn's blood being the richest she could imbibe upon, Harry tells Alma they must never feed on it. Harry, after all, is trying to keep their family together under awful circumstances. Alma doesn't see why they need to keep Doris around; they want to live with talent and significance but Doris holds them back. If Alma harms Doris, however, Harry threatens that she will never see another pill. Doris awakens later in the day to find Ursula reading a script next to her bed. The agent suggests that Doris was having vivid dreams about Alma eating the baby but Doris believes she can tell the difference between sleep and real life. Ursula reasons with her that she'll be fine, especially since Harry's prolific writing will support her for the rest of her life. All she needs to do is let it happen and not get on Harry's bad side and she can coast. She'll need to, Ursula suggests, since she's not going to get anywhere with the decorating plans.

From Quiz "Pale"

Answer: Red meat

When Harry heads to the market he doesn't make it far before he encounters three odd men in the street, not unlike the one he killed in his house. Another, who he comes across in the middle of the road, eats a squirrel and turns to attack him. Harry is quickly surrounded by the men but they recoil when they come close. As it seems, they're no longer interested. When Harry arrives at the market, nothing seems to be interesting, and as he wanders the aisles he finds his cart is empty...that is until he reaches the meat department. He fills the cart with steaks and red meat. TB Karen finds him at the market as well, and she knows he's taken the pill. If he thought he was thirsty before, she says, then he never knew what thirsty was. Getting home, Harry opens all of the steaks he's purchased and squeezes the meat into a pitcher. As it seems, he's able to satisfy his cravings with blended, strained meat.

From Quiz "Cape Fear"

Answer: Tuberculosis Karen

It being the off-season, Harry is quick to find that Provincetown is quiet during his first walk through its streets. He heads to the grocery store and fills his cart but finds his first sign of life, a woman named Karen who angrily warns him off, urging him to leave town. The store owner sends her off, referring to her as 'Tuberculosis Karen'; she doesn't necessarily have TB, but she is a bit crazy and she smokes three packs a day. The store owner, who appears to be Martha's brother, tries to assuage any worries by offering to order any fancier foods for Harry, but the polite gesture can't pull Harry's attention away from Karen, still watching from outside. In the house, Harry takes a seat at his laptop while Doris unpacks her design supplies and Alma practices her fiddle. Doris excels in her rehearsal, but neither Harry nor Doris can break free of their creative blocks, both becoming immensely frustrated. Harry has to ask his daughter to stop (much to her dismay as she wants to grow up to be first chair in the New York Philharmonic) and Doris takes her out for a walk.

From Quiz "The Future Perfect"

Answer: In a hospital

Nixon confides in Kissinger in the Oval Office that he doesn't know what to do and the only suggestion he receives is to resign from the Presidency. History, Kissinger asserts, will remember Nixon much more kindly. Nixon nearly changes his mind after Kissinger leaves the room. Instead, he's abducted by the aliens and compelled via other means. Mamie and Valiant Thor watch the resignation from the Eisenhower house and Mamie admits that she is ready for a quiet death. She's accomplished enough, and with Valiant Thor's help, she can live forever. Radios report that she died peacefully in her sleep at Walter Reed Hospital.

From Quiz "Inside"

Answer: To survive

Nine years before the JFK assassination, Eisenhower returned to the Air Force Base to speak to the top men in his military. Many of them opposed the treaty, believing it to be a surrendering of sovereignty, but their hesitation is exactly what led Subject 1 to leave her containment unit in the base and attend the meeting. She brought with her two new technologies-- a metal indetectable on radar and fibre-optic cabling-- and killed one of Eisenhower's men as a testament to her strength. Subject 1 reiterated that her world was going to go extinct, and without the work her kind were doing on Earth, they would have no other chance. Her people could not stay on Earth because of contaminants and viruses, but if she combined her people with the people of Earth, they could go on. Subject 1 announced that their first test subject had failed and that they would need more test subjects if they wished to succeed. The presence left Maria's body after this, destroying her as it departed.

From Quiz "Take Me to Your Leader"

Answer: In the desert

Eisenhower, coming upon the crash site, lights a cigarette. It's clear that whatever landed in the desert isn't Russian or Chinese, and whatever it is, the real question is likely 'why?'. It's then that a soldier alerts him to something over the horizon. Hiding out in the shade of a desert tree they find an unclothed woman shivering. Eisenhower gives up his jacket to cover her and asks for her name and it's most surprising when she claims to be Amelia Earhart, but she disappeared in 1937. Eisenhower speaks to Amelia alone when they bring her back to the base for medical help, and it's then that he hears her story.

From Quiz "Winter Kills"

Answer: Harry

At the Gardner household, Ursula reads over Harry's latest screenplay and lets him know that she believes it to be his masterpiece; he may never write something to top its quality. This is why he makes the announcement that with spring coming, they're done with the pills. It's been fun, but they need to hit the brakes. Both Alma and Ursula are against this since he should feel above the moral code he's claiming he needs to be conscious of. His selfishness, they say, is unfair. Harry tells Alma that at last, with no distractions, he'll finally be able to support her to be the best she can be as long as she trusts him. Though she says okay, the look she gives to Ursula seems to indicate that she's lying.

From Quiz "Gaslight"

Answer: Alma

Alma continues to practice with fervour while Harry serves her fresh blood from his hunts and Doris remains in her bedroom with the baby. It's shortly after feeding the child that she finds the bite marks on the baby's arm, confirming her worst suspicions. It's then that Alma brings her mother her pills. As she pours them into Doris' hand, there's one amongst the bunch-- a black one-- that Doris has never taken before. Doris sees it immediately and believes it to be poison, and when she screams for Harry for help, she's backed into the corner by her family's lies. Alma is the first to break through the gaslighting by claiming that she wanted her mother to take the pill so that she could be like the rest of the family. If she takes the pill, like the others, she'll be great at whatever she's good at. Harry refuses to let them urge her; it's not for her. Doris tosses the pill and the water on the ground, grabs the baby, and flees into the night but she has to return to the house when she emerges into the street to find the pale creatures waiting to feed. There's nowhere she can go.

From Quiz "Pale"

Answer: Minimalist

Doris and Alma still want to leave, but Doris has to admit that in all her years of having known Harry, he's never been so inspired. Normally, he'll agonize over a handful of pages for week at a time, but in the house, he's excelling beyond anyone's wildest expectations. She reassures Alma that they will leave, but they should give Harry a few days to finish his work and break the fever. Before Alma goes to sleep, Doris asks her if she likes the colour palette she's picked out for the living room, but Alma thinks that all the colours she's picked out are the same; dull and uncomfortable. Doris doesn't disturb Harry while he continues to work downstairs, and neither do Austin and Belle who, watching from their car outside, realize that Harry will need to upgrade his diet if he wants to feel as good as he does on those first few nights on the pills. They decide to head up the Cape to find a snack as they drive off into the night.

From Quiz "Cape Fear"

Answer: Provincetown is boring

Doris and Alma wander through Provincetown and head through the local cemetery musing on their new, temporary home. Alma asks her mother if she likes it there, but Doris is more at home in the bustling city. It's good to get a break, Doris reminds her daughter. As they walk through the gravestones, they see a man watching and hastily make their way home. By the time they arrive they're in a full-on sprint to get inside. They're fortunate to get the doors looked before their pursuer can reach the house. Harry and Doris talk to Police Chief Burelson about the man who tried to attack their family, but the chief isn't too fussed. In the off-season, most crimes in Provincetown are opioid-related, and more than likely the man was trying to scare them and little more. Doris worries that the man's attitude might be a symptom of lyme disease, a common disease, she says, afflicting the coast's population. Burelson, however, says the man is probably just a weirdo; they're safe in Provincetown. The Gardners decide to stay. They simply have too big an opportunity to waste it.

From Quiz "Blue Moon"

Answer: Nevada

Dwight speaks to Mamie over breakfast, asking for her opinion on the experimentation being done under their own home and she flippantly brushes him off, suggesting that he simply give them a new space. She recommends a site in Nevada-- one he brought up during bridge a month earlier-- since the whole state is pretty well godforsaken. With that idea he drafts an executive order, passing it in front of Valiant Thor to sign and confirming the aliens' use of a massive plot of land north of Las Vegas for their use (on the condition that they remove the experiments from the White House bunker).

From Quiz "Take Me to Your Leader"

Answer: Howland Island

In 1937, Amelia and her navigator, Fred Noonan, set out to locate Howland Island in the Atlantic Ocean but despite their heading being true, they never found it. They couldn't understand it, especially when all of the instruments in their plane malfunctioned inexplicably. They were going down until the moment that everything went white; it was like they were flying into the sun. And that's all she remembers. As for the markings on her body, she attributes them to needles. Those who took her took her blood and put things inside her. Eisenhower asks who did this to her, but she can't seem to answer and she can't comprehend that she has returned to the United States decades past when she left it. While Amelia is sedated, Eisenhower struggles to understand why she hasn't aged in twenty years. Complicating matters further is the fact that her blood test results have returned; she's two months pregnant.

From Quiz "Winter Kills"

Answer: Belle

The day after Harry's announcement, Harry and Alma return home with groceries to find their back door broken open. Harry checks with Ursula, who's been in the house the entire time, but she claims she had no idea. It's only when Harry looks upstairs that he finds the note in Eli's empty crib urging him and Alma to be at Belle's house by sunset. If they don't attend their little family meeting, then Eli could be in danger. Harry realizes that Belle and Austin will never let them leave alive, and Alma is okay with the risk, but it's clearly more complicated than it seems. Ursula, however, has a plan provided they hear her out.

From Quiz "Gaslight"

Answer: Karen

Karen spends the day at Grace Point getting her paintings just right when Belle Noir comes upon her there. Because Karen hasn't been answering her burner phone, she had to come out and see her in person. Belle explains that she needs a favour; the Gardners came home with the baby and she wants it for the obvious reasons. Although Karen says no, initially, she finds that they're surrounded by the pale creatures, only protected by Belle's presence, so there's nowhere to go. Newborn blood is untainted and the longer they wait, the less untainted it gets. Doris awakens once more in her bed and, this time, gets up and searches through the bathroom for something she can use to protect herself. What she finds is a pair of scissors amongst her design materials, and with this she creeps through the house.

From Quiz "Thirst"

Answer: A few days before Ursula's arrival

Ursula ends up at the bar at The Muse on her first evening in Provincetown. While Mickey watches her from down the bar, she struggles with listening to Belle and Austin duet to "Too Much, Too Little" (by Johnny Mathis and Deniece Williams) at the piano. She asks the waiter to ask the pair to stop but the writers catch wind and confront her. Before Ursula tucks into her dinner, Mickey offers to buy her a drink. She refuses, however, leaving altogether instead of finishing her meal. Mickey follows Ursula out of the bar and asks her if she can do him one favour. He's written several scripts in the past four days and having an agent look at even the first ten pages would mean a lot. Despite her obvious initial hesitation, she takes the stack and promises to read them that evening...or else toss them into the fireplace. To her utter amazement, as she hops into bed with the material, she's enraptured from the first page.

From Quiz "The Future Perfect"

Answer: Three

The military, searching the rooms as the alarms sound, pass through not only Kendall and Jamie's room, but Mamie Eisenhower's. Mamie is able to get information out of one of the men, discovering that there's been an unauthorized death in the facility, something that never happens. She's asked to stay in her room. The men find the death having already taken place in the moon landing set. There, both Cal and Troy lay dead. The alien baby attacks, killing one of the men before it can be killed itself. When Theta finds the remains, she has the squadron killed for their insolence. It's a real shame, she says, as the regression in the child's form hasn't happened in two cycles.

From Quiz "Blue Moon"

Answer: Richard Nixon

Pouring himself a drink on the night of his executive order signing, Dwight believes he hears something in an adjacent room and investigates to find Mamie in bed with Valiant Thor. The discovery causes him to collapse in dismay and, when he awakens in bed, Mamie tells him it wasn't a nightmare. Ultimately, she says, it's fine-- he's a foreign dignitary and she is, thus, giving her body for her country. On top of this, he's not flesh and blood, so it's not an act of infidelity. Five years later at FBI Headquarters, Eisenhower and Nixon watch videos of Marilyn Monroe spilling the alleged truth about aliens. Both realize that they'll need to plug the leaks though Nixon takes it a step further, sending assassins to kill her in her home and blame it on her addiction.

From Quiz "Blood Buffet"

Answer: At The Muse

With her husband uninterested in watching the Cape sunset, Belle Noir made her way to The Muse for a glass of wine. Mickey found her at the bar there and chatted her up, recognizing her as the author from the book signing, and Belle was kind enough to offer him a drink. During their talk, Belle admitted that she knew she wrote schlock, but she was a writer nonetheless, even if she died writing, ruining her life and marriage to do what she loves. She asked Mickey if he had any cocaine. He didn't, but he had something else that could do the trick-- methamphetamine. While Belle danced next to the bar, Mickey watched as the singer he sent to the Chemist's came into the building and ordered a bloody mary. The man, now seeming to be very sick, headed to the restroom to throw up the drink. It was there, standing in the mirror and running his hands through his hair, that he found he was able to pull chunks from his scalp.
