"Room Service" is the fifth episode of the fifth season of the anthology television series American Horror Story. It aired on November 4, 2015 on the cable network FX. This episode was written by Ned Martel and directed by Michael Goi.
Alex Lowe (Chloë Sevigny) reaches Max Ellison's room in the hospital, who has got infection from the measles, prompting the doctors to ask his mother to sign a DNR. Alex feeds on blood bags in a closet and injects some of her blood into Max, and saves him. Donovan (Matt Bomer) and Iris (Kathy Bates) meet Ramona Royale (Angela Bassett) with the plan of making Iris their "inside man" to Elizabeth (Lady Gaga). At the hotel, Liz Taylor (Denis O'Hare) offers a drink to Iris, which turns out to be blood. Although Liz is excited about Iris' rebirth, the latter muses on her eternal life of being invisible.
Max runs to catch the school bus in a pirate costume, having eaten his parents in their kitchen. His class is decorating the classroom for Halloween, and his friend was worried about him. Max explains nearly dying from the measles, and while they lean in for a kiss, he bites her lip. The virus spreads infecting other children, who kill the teacher and an administrator for their blood. The staff puts the school on lockdown and SWAT team escorts the infected children out of the school. Max's friend Maddy starts a fake story about a masked intruder, and the rest of the children follow suit.
At the police office, John Lowe (Wes Bentley) tells his lieutenant about the Devil's Night, in spite of knowing how insane he sounds, and gets fired for instability. Social media personality, Justin (Darren Criss) and his girlfriend (Jessica Lu), check in wanting a discount for being famous. Iris leads them to Room 64, which they balk at. Downstairs, Elizabeth and Tristan Duffy (Finn Wittrock) head out costumed for the evening. They pass on a message for Will Drake (Cheyenne Jackson) that he is invited to join them for a party. Tristan and Elizabeth notice that Iris is nervous and smells different, which she writes off as Halloween stress.
