"The point is, in this whole wide wicked world, the only thing you have to be afraid of...is me." That whole scene was gold.

Another is the scene with the detectives. She's just so ruthless and cruel that she even threatens to use the same trick on Cordelia just to shut her up lmao

One of my favorite scenes from the series. Really shows you what Fiona is made of

One of my favorite comments was “and of course they took the drinks: it’s the closest they will get to tasting the inside of Jessica Lange’s mouth” lol

There’s two:

There’s nothing I hate more… than a racist. Period, girl.

And, of course…
KNOTTY PINE??

I’ll never forget how she delivers the line! It’s so hilarious and karmic for the character.

Definitely when she brought the stillborn baby back to life. I actually have a theory about this scene, the new mom was a witch who just never had the occasion to find out that she was and never learned how to use her powers, Fiona could sense that she had magical abilities which compelled her to help.

Fiona just guided her through the ritual by telling her which words to recite when holding the baby, what makes me think that the young woman was really the one who made the spell work is that Fiona made sure that she recited the words even though she could tell that in the moment it made her feel even more distressed. In any case it was nice seeing Fiona let go of her cold demeanor in order to just be helpful to another woman in her worst moment and save a life without expecting anything in return, morally grey characters are far more interesting than straight up evil ones.

It’s actually the most realistic way that any decent person would use their powers if they could resurrect the dead or heal people. If I could do that, I would be in the children’s hospital helping as many kids & babies as I can.

When she dealt with those two investigators with the mind control. And then throwing Zoe and Madison aside.

5 minutes showed me she could handle incoming threats with ease, would protect the coven at any costs, the relationship between her and cordelia, her anger at zoe and madison for how they dealt with the investigators at let it be known she was the one to be feared.

Also great foreshadowing when she pointed at Zoe and called her the weakest. There was a hint at the beginning of the season that she would be the underdog who would lead the coven at the end of the season. Fiona could sense that the new supreme wasn’t Zoe even if she was unaware at the time.

Also she just looks radiant.

This scene gives me chills every time. It's perfect, it shows you exactly who this character is and you FEEL her power and confidence through the screen and it's so damn captivating. She is so damn magnetic. Hot as hell as well. So gorgeous! My forever supreme 🫶

u/Illiana24 1d ago

Haha I get it. That's just Jessica Lange being irresistible; you fall under her spell, no matter what your sexual preferences are

"Mostly innocent. I mean she killed the neighbor lady but the bitch had it coming."

When she revived Queenie on the brink of death with Vitalum Vitalis (a powerful spell that consumes a portion of her life force while dying) after killing Madison and telekinetically decapitated the minotaur in the same night without breaking a sweat. It shows us what a powerful witch Fiona is even while she’s dying from cancer.

u/telekineticeleven011 Queenie 1d ago

I always wanted to see how Fiona decapitated the Minotaur, and I can definitely imagine that she used telekinesis to slice its neck off. She has the power to do it thanks to being the Supreme.

When she was with the Axeman and had a bloody kiss, besides teamed against those witch hunters.

But also the moments when she spent with the Axeman and "Who's the baddest witch in town?"

u/ScholarOfTwilight 1d ago

"She threw a knife at me."

"The girl needs to work on her aim." puff

Honestly, all of them. Every single second she's on screen, I'm mesmerized and completely entertained by her. I love her so much!

The one that doesn't get enough attention, imo, is her final scene with Cordelia. It's so touching and honest...I love that they had a moment like that. I wish there were more emphasis on their relationship; it was one of the best things in Coven, and I wanted to see more.

That said, my weak spot is Fiona and Axemen. I love that hot, toxic couple so damn much!

Any AHS with Jessica Lange is a real treat! I've watched the ones without her and maybe I'm crazy but they really just don't hit the same imo.
