'American Horror Story Apocalypse': What to expect from episode 3 'Forbidden Fruit'

Called 'Forbidden Fruit', the teaser for the episode takes us back to the 'AHS: Hotel'. Ryan Murphy's love for connecting the dots shines through yet again.

Let's be real - this season of 'American Horror Story' has been pretty unpredictable so far and just laced with biblical connections. The anti-christ, the apocalypse, the new world, snakes and borderline Adam and Eve characters,  'Apocalypse' has delivered everything that it has promised. But will it deliver the residents of Outpost 3 from evil? We will never really know until the end of the season but the third episode is certainly a step in the right direction. Called 'Forbidden Fruit', the teaser for the episode takes us back to the 'AHS: Hotel'. Ryan Murphy's love for connecting the dots shines through yet again. 

The eighth season in the series, 'Apocalypse' is the crossover between 'AHS: Murder House' and 'AHS: Coven'. The promo for 'Forbidden Fruit' however, is a throwback to the 'Hotel's Ten Commandments. In the 30-second long teaser, Michael Langdon goes on to explain how the old world lived under a set of rules and then goes on to recite the ten biblical commandments. There's a shot of someone being dunked into a bucket full of juicy red apples that follows his speech which is a definite nod to the apple that started it all, according to the Bible. This could very well be Mallory, especially since she can be seen screaming just moments after saying "Let me go!" As we know the killer in 'Hotel' used the commandments as a guideline to kill his victims. Could it be that Michael already knew about the killer and the apocalypse? Is it possible that 'Apocalypse' will find its own 10 commandments?
