In the deleted scenes on the dvd, Frank actually states "three-hots-and-a-cot" as his reason.

ABSOLUTELY AGREE, if you are keeping secrets, you have no right to expect everyone else to be totally forthcoming.
Jimmy lashing out at Fiona was stupid, selfish, reactionary and deliberatley hurtful.
So it was VERY REAL & HUMAN.
Actually, the most real and human Jimmy has ever come across as.

Because everyone was RIGHT about him all along;
He was just a Poor Little Rich Boy slumming, it got too real for him, and it came time to bail.

Don't forget that Karen SPECIFICALLY THREATENED Mandy that she WAS going to INTENTIONALLY get pregnant to "trap" Lip.

Well, she was so PROUD of herself after being "the family fuck-up" all her life!

Yes, i just meant that Katherine Helmond is still alive & kickin'!

thats my favorite shot!!!
THATS what I want to know more about!

How do you cast such a great actor & then only use him in the BACKEND of the season?!?!?

Well, then Cordelia's vision would have MEANT something, and not just been COOL IMAGERY, and we couldn't have that, could we?
Was Cordelia even WEARING that necklace?

We were alerted to the danger by Cordelia scolding, "Girls! Girls! Be Careful!" in Mrs Garrett HeadMistress Voice that she has never used at all before this season.

How she LOST her soul (& didnt even know it) would have been more interesting than any "story" we actually got.

She's gonna be the Stevie Nicks of next season.

They pitched the idea right here in the comments of the VERY FIRST EPISODE of AHS!

A friend wrote, "This whole season works as a great pilot episode for FACTS OF LIFE: COVEN"

That's his Hell.

"Let's get rid of Misty, no one cares about that character."

I "liked" how NONE OF MADISON's POWERS could help her escape from choking.

Even so, I felt you were too gentle & generous.
Obliviously, this lack of quality is going to proliferate, but this show crossed the line into OFFENSIVE with the HEAD episode.
And I don't mean "PROVOCATIVELY offensive", I mean REPELLENT.
A landmark in BAD television.
