'AHS: Return to Murder House' review: Constance, Ben, and Vivien unwrap Michael's past leaving Madison and Behold stunned

We know that Cordelia (Sarah Paulson) has planned something in her head to stop Michael (Cody Fern) from becoming the Alpha, Warlock equivalent of the Supreme.

The most awaited episode of 'American Horror Story: Apocalypse' aired yesterday and, firstly, Sarah Paulson, take a bow! What direction! Every frame was perfection and lived up to its standard. Before we go on with the review, let's take a quick recap. 

We know that Cordelia (Paulson) has planned something in her head to stop Michael (Cody Fern) from becoming the Alpha, Warlock equivalent of the Supreme. She assigns Behold (Billy Porter) and Madison (Emma Roberts) this job, to return to the Murder House and figure out Michael's past and his weakness. 

Return to the Murder House: 

Madison and Behold buy the Murder House on behalf of the Coven while acting like a married couple. They sense that the house is filled with spirits and realize that Behold cannot use his magic in the house. He tried opening the door of the house with a wave of his hand but was unsuccessful in doing so. He must have felt real shame at that point as he had to use the key to open the door like silly humans (no offense). Once, in the house, Behold asks Madison, "Do you honestly think that Michael is evil?" a warlock feels for his fellow. Madison replies, "So we're here to find out. Cordelia won't send us here for no reason," and she was damn right about that. While Madison and Behold walk away casually as the main door behind them shuts automatically, no big deal.
