Sarah Paulson did say that this role was her strangest one yet, so I guess I should keep a little money to wager on her and Cuba Gooding Jr.’s characters being the source of the twist.
We don’t know which characters will get to make the switcheroos, but one would have to assume it’s those that are being interviewed, right?
I’m not sure how the show could pull back the metaphorical curtain on Kathy Bates’ Butcher or Denis O’Hare’s Elias Cunningham as we’ve seen them on the show, so I’d put all my money on the “real” Matt and Shelby Miller (and the others) having a very different thrust in the overarching story moving forward.
