Our super big twist was a change in format, so that was lame. However, the show is still going well, so let's see how the rest of this season plays out and get started on the recap:

Recap

We start off with Sid watching footage in the production trailer of Matt and Dominic fighting and being please with what he sees. Alisa the sandwich girl comes in and brings him and the cameraman sandwiches and asks if anyone's heard from Diana. Sid writes Diana off and Alisa leaves. Suddenly the cameraman witnessed Rory's death and grabs his camera and begins filming the monitor it was on, just as it goes black. They hear Alisa scream from outside and they go out to look for her and find her with her throat cut. They are suddenly attacked and killed by Agnes in her Butcher costum, who screams some of her lines into the camera as it dies.

We then cut to Audrey looking for Rory, but she can't find him. The others start to help in the search and find a large pool of blood where Rory died. Audrey suddenly decides that Rory must have left for his job offer back in L.A. The shares in the confessional that she thinks that Rory has abandoned her and thier marriage.

Down in the bunker, Agnes goes more and more insane over her actions. Her torch suddenly goes out, and when she manages to get it relit there are several wicker dolls hanging from the cieling.

The next morning, Lee, Monet and Dominic argue over Monet's drinking. Dominic later troes to seduce Shelby, who rejects him, when Matt comes in and sees them. He tells Dominic that he doesn't care what he does with Shelby and then tells them both off. Dominic then reveals in the confessional that he had been brought on by Sid to play the bad guy of the group and that he is wired up with a body cam.

In her room, Shelby cries over her situation with Matt. She notices a hidden camera and goes to investigate it. Agnes comes up behind her and threatens her a bit before slicing her in the neck. Dominic, hearing Shelby's screams, comes in and fights Agnes off. As he goes to help Shelby, Agnes sneaks off.

Audrey and Matt bandage Shelby up in the kitchen. Lee comes in and tells the others that all the phones are dead because the lines have been cut. Dom screams into the camera for Sid to get help. They get no response and Lee, Audrey and Monet decide to go to the production trailer themselves. They argue over how to get there, with Monet refusing to walk through the woods, until Audrey convinces them to use the tunnel, where they encounter Mott's ghost (who Audrey at first thinks is Rory playing a trick on them;) Lee shoots at the ghost, to no effect. They make it out into the woods and decide to continue on to the trailer.

Matt goes to talk to Shelby about thier relationship. Matt says he feels like he lost something in the house and that's why he returned.

The three women continue through the woods and see the blood moon. They make it to the trailer and find the bodies of the crew. Agnes then shows up and Lee shoots her. They decide, over Monet's objections, to try and walk into town. They see some of the colonists in the woods and at Lee's urging, they get off the road and flee. While hiding, Audrey leaves a message on her phone for Rory, telling him that he gave her the best months of her life. Blood begins to drop onto her face and they look up to see Rory's eviscerated corpse hanging from the tree.

Audres breaks down over Rory's death as a group of people with flashlights begins coming towards them. They try to run away but are captured.

Back in the bunker, Agnes (who's still alive,) pulls the bullet out of her body and vows vengance.

In the house, Matt wakes up in a trance and goes to the basement. Dom sees him and follows. In the basement is the Witch, who attacks Matt. Dom goes and gets Shelby and takes her to the basement where she attacks the Witch. Matt tells Shelby that he is in love with the Witch and that she's the reason he wanted the opportunity to return to the house, not Shelby. Enraged, Shelby attacks Matt with the crowbar she used on the witch and beats his head in until Dom is able to pull her off of him.

Lee is separated from Audrey and Monet and tied up in the Polk family's weed drying shack. They oil up (and season) her leg, with designs to cure and eat it.

In the house, Dom finally manages to get the crowbar away from Shelby as she breaks down over murdering Matt. Dom tires to convince Shelby to confess to the murder when he hears a noise outside. It's Agnes, splashing gasoline on the house.

Back at the Polks' pig shack, Monet and Audrey are chained to a post and forced to eat pieces of Lee's leg.

Agnes rails on and on at the house, either reciting her actual lines or ad lbbing them, while Shelby and Dom look on. The colonists surround her and she greets them before realising that the real Butcher is right in front of her. Agnes is killed by the Butcher as the episode ends.

Review

We seem to be wrapping things up really fast again, and I don't know what to make of that. I mean, the episode was pretty good, but we've already put the surviving characters in no win situations and it seems like next week things may be over again. I sure hope that doesn't mean that we're in for another big twist in episode nine.

Miscellaneous

  • Dos Equis got a new "Most Interesting Man in the World." I miss the old guy.
  • I was already getting it, but Titanfall 2's launch trailer is great.
  • I like the slow drip of Legion trailers we're getting, it looks like an interesting show
