And we’re back! Last night on Scream Queens Zayday and Chanel tied for house president, Chad Radwell reluctantly became monogamous, we lost another pledge, and everyone realized what we already knew…there are two Red Devils.
In true sorority horror fashion, the sisters of KKT decided to keep safe and maybe find the killer by having a slumber party. After revealing a tie between Zayday and Chanel the two begrudgingly decide to rule as co-presidents. But Zayday isn’t convinced the killer isn’t residing in KKT. While this plan is basically flawed from the get go, we soon discover Chanel has retrofitted the house to be a panic room so they are completely locked in with the killer. After a speedy call to Chad Radwell, the Dickie Dollar Scholars are on the move to be heroes…sort of.
We later find out that there’s a horrendously convenient tunnel system located under the house that the Devils have been using to get in and out of KKT speedily. Zayday and Chanel go in search of an exit and we soon find out the walls are lined with former KKT president portraits. As Chanel admires the president from 1986 who was responsible for bringing massive amounts of cocaine to KKT, one of our Devils appears wielding two axes and blatant disregard for seriously nice tiles. Obviously the two survive and find the exit only to go right back into the house with a newly formed, albeit rocky, friendship. The sun comes up, Dean Munsch makes a brief appearance as does Wes and we are left with a killer (sorry) dance party.
These past two episodes have upped their game in storytelling and moving the plot forward. Don’t get me wrong, I love the jokes and all, but I still do like the story to move forward occasionally. However, where are all of our other characters? No Niecy Nash is a crime against Scream Queens. And what about Gigi? We know she’s nuts and was the one who took the baby from the prologue but…nothing? Well, we don’t get any answers until November 3rd when the show comes back from its World Series break. I didn’t love this episode as much as the others but I grant all shows a few lull episodes in the middle, we can’t rush things after all.
Favorite Deaths:
Armless Caulfield, we hardly knew yee! May you golf in the greens of the afterlife.

The only other death was Sam aka “Predatory Lez” and that one was actually kind of sad.
