Stanley was briefly introduced to the freaks last week, and thankfully this week, we got to see more of him and of his twisted fantasies. I was quite surprised when we first saw Paul inside the tank.
But of course, the worst scene was the one with pink cupcakes. Stanley invited Dot and Bette outside to have a nice chat about their future on television and he offered them pink poisonous cupcakes. Bette quicly ate it and felt sick.
Oh God, Stanley is a true psychopath. The dynamic between their characters was absolutely perfect as well. First, Stanley offered Elsa a television show, where she could be the only star. But Elsa thought she deserved more and better.
She revealed she hated the television, only motion pictures mattered to her. I loved her line about movies being the expression of the soul. They made fun of her, and threw pop corn on stage. Poor Elsa, it was so heart breaking to watch her with so much despair in her eyes.
It really made me ill at ease watching it. Her dream was crushed in front of everyone, especially Stanley who took a great pleasure watching it. Afterwards, Stanley came to visit Elsa once again and this time she wanted to know more about the television show. Jimmy Darling, the new hero of Jupiter ran into some troubles. First, he got rejected by Maggie the fortuneteller. They clearly shared a connection, but Maggie always keep her distance with him, because of her secret mission.
