I have a theory.
Dandy Mott—the creepy, pampered son of Gloria Mott seen in the first two episodes of American Horror Story: Freak Show*—is in fact Twisty the Clown**.
I need to go back and familiarize myself with the Freudian concepts of the id, the ego and the super-ego (in particular, to attempt to identify how they may interrelate with regard to abnormal psychology***) again to understand what's afoot in the latest American Horror Story saga.
I'm pretty sure the robotic toy that Twisty tried to give his two captives in the show's second episode represents Mott's super-ego.
Mott's id = the ugliness of the character of the sick, murdering Twisty the Clown, totally unwrapped.
What say you?
Might there be something Freudian at work in this year's really creepy Freak Show antagonist?
(There usually is, you know. )
