'Motherland: Fort Salem' celebrates Beltane with a giant sex party that has something for almost everyone
Spoilers for 'Motherland: Fort Salem' Season 1 Episode 4 'Hail Beltane'
The last episode saw the arrival of a literal busload of male witches to Fort Salem to celebrate Beltane, a traditional celebration that is meant to empower witches with the "energy" gained from joining with their male counterparts.
The show wasn't entirely subtle as to what that meant, and that is underscored when the Beltane dance ends with a large sex party in the woods, and the fans were loving every minute of it.
"WHY ARE THEY ALL HAVING SEX IN THE WOODS," asked a user on Twitter. "Look at all this healthy sex representation we're getting! I love this show so much!!!" wrote one fan.
"Y'ALL THEY NAKED AS ****. I'm too innocent for this. I'm 23 but I'm still too innocent for this," claimed this viewer. One tweet asked, "Is this what burning man is like?" while another inquired, "I wonder if they had to awkwardly record moaning for the background of the massive pleasure scene?"
There was much enthusiasm for Abigail Bellweather (Ashley Nicole Williams) getting her "energy" from two male witches in a steamy threesome scene. "OH HELL YES A THREESOME WHERE THE BOYS SHOW INTEREST IN EACH OTHER GOOD JOB SHOW," praised one tweet.
Another stunning moment from the scene is the swarm of bats around the moon as the celebrations reach their climax. "Ok... but just out of curiosity, what seed is the female orgasm in?" wrote one fan, asking all the important questions.
Of course, not everyone got to be a part of the celebrations in quite the same way. "The gays are in the bushes laughing, the necros are in the basement raisin' dead people, the Moms are checkin mirrors, and errybody else is ****in' BELTANE," noted a fan.
"Everyone getting freaky and then there's Scylla stuck in the same room with the body of the guy she killed. Normal day in the #Motherland universe," wrote another. "Poor biddies are stuck watching and listening... in the prime of their youth," pointed out this viewer.
Another scene that garnered much appreciation from fans was between Raelle Collar (Taylor Hickson) and another male recruit — both gay, and both of them entirely uninterested in all the loud sex happening in the forest around them, the two still manage to have a good time together making fun of everyone else.
"I'm here for the 2 gays making fun of the heterosexuals," wrote a fan. "These two laying in the bushes having real talk while everyone else has loud sex around them is.......phenomenal," wrote a viewer. "'We get it, you're having SEEEXXXX.' Me and the gays, watching every straight sex scene ever," wrote this fan.
It's certainly one of the most memorable scenes on 'Motherland: Fort Salem' and even without everyone on the show getting to take part, the fans certainly enjoyed this unique fantasy military tradition.
The next episode of 'Motherland: Fort Salem' airs on April 8 on Freeform.
