'American Horror Story: Freak Show' Recap – "Magical Thinking" Brings One Freak's Death, Neil Patrick Harris' Arrival, & The Loss Of A "V" Card [PHOTOS]

The holiday break is over, thank gosh, and an all-new episode of American Horror Story is the reward for all of you who waiting oh so patiently for it. On tonight's episode, the Freak Show is taking a turn for the worse, and yes we mean that literally, as special guest star Neil Patrick Harris pulls out all the zany and creepy stops for his truly bizarre character, he's even giving Twisty and Dandy a run for their money.

During this episode we find out how Jimmy got his pleasure claws removed, and no it wasn't so that some bored housewife could use the claws to get her kicks anytime she wanted, it was actually Stanley who lobed them off so he could make some money by selling them to the museum.

Stanley "Big penis" McGhee decided that Jimmy was the latest exhibit in his collection and decided to enlist his male prostitute buddy to help remove Jimmy's lobster claws.

When Stanley sweet talks Jimmy, he agrees to go along with whatever sick plan Stan comes up with, as he doesn't want to spend a lifetime in prison.

As Stanley sneaks Jimmy out of the prison, in all his puking glory, he puts him in a van where him and his "whore" proceed to cut off his claws. They later bring him to a hospital where they leave him.

However, it's not all bad for little Jim boy, after all, his papa who disowned him for the last 20 years of his life makes a surprise visit. And we don't know about you but nothing says love to us like an estranged father spoon-feeding some mashed tatters and carrots to his handless son.

Flash over to one of the more redeemable character on the show, Dot and Bette, the conjoined twins vow to do a little... well we'll just call it self-exploration this episode, as they try to find a male suitor to "pick their flower," so to speak.

Just like an episode of The Bachelor the girls audition various men, trying to find the right one to deflower them, but sadly without much lucky. Hey, we'd pick the French guy, we mean at least he knows how to kiss, are we right ladies?

While it seems like their draught might last a little longer, they soon discover Neil's character of Chester and simply can't keep their panties on. It seems that the traveling lizard seller, Chester, has everything that the girls are looking for in man. I mean we don't blame them for throwing themselves at him, heck Harris could be a traveling anything seller and we'd still have the hots for him.

However, as the episode progresses our hotness level for Neil/Chester goes from scorching hot to more of a middle age hot flash. After all that whole talking to a doll, aka Margery, is kind of freaking us out just a bit. Not only is he talking to the puppet, but he also involves it in one of the strangest threesomes, or is it foursomes, that we have ever seen on TV. The only redeeming thing about that whole strange encounter was that we got to see Neil's butt. Oh La La.

Chester's creepiness level is actually making us somewhat miss Dandy. I mean, at least he knows he's a psychopath, right? Well it seems like someone in the American Horror Story world was reading our minds because Dandy makes his reappearance in this episode and he isn't too happy with ole' Chester boy after his like romp with Bette and Dot. In fact like any true creepizod, Dandy had the girl followed, hoping he could stop something like this from happening, aka the whole deflowering incident.

If viewers thought that Dell spoon-feeding Jimmy baby food would earn him a papa of the year award, they haven't seen anything yet. Dell and the Amazonian woman, who we still don't know what her purpose on the show is, team up to break Jimmy out of a jail transport van. They succeed but we're not too sure of where Jimmy is come the end of the episode.

The rest of the episode is pretty uneventful. Chester freaks out because he lost Margery but then he finds her, the cops show up again looking for Jimmy knowing he has escaped but come up empty handed, and the doll tells Chester that he has to kill the twins.

It seems that they always save the best parts of the episodes for the last few minutes, and tonight's was no exception. Emma Roberts character returns to reveal to Elsa the truth about Ma Petitie's death. Mars in all her rage goes to Dell's tent and shoots him in the back of the head for what he's done to her little precious.

Tune in next week for the second to last episode of the season.
