American Horror Story: Murder House - 12 Most Shocking Moments

8. The Tearful Happy Ending

What's worse than masturbating and then bursting into tears? Watching someone else do it. Ben is moments away from climaxing when he decides to have an emotional epiphany and realises that having a mistress is both morally corrupt and a bit silly, especially when your wife is Vivien. Ben is just being greedy at this stage and hasn't admitted to himself that his infidelity could cost him his marriage and life as he knows it. This emotional tragedy hits him when he's jerking off and as he happens to look out of the window (because everyone masturbates in front of a window during the day), he realises that someone has been watching him the entire time.
