If your yearly trip around the sun concludes between May 21 and June 21 each year, your Gemini “American Horror Story: 1984” character is one of the few good folks around: Chef Bertie (Tara Karsian). This charismatic air sign may not be much of a looker, but she is beloved by all, thanks to her good-natured personality. Like all good Geminis, Chef Bertie is a veritable encyclopedia of information, and with her veteran experience as a chef at Camp Redwood, Bertie knows almost everything there is to know about the camp’s history.
A kind spirit to the last, this kitchen magician uses her final moments to save Xavier from the oven Jingles traps him in. Geminis are natural flirts and great with banter, as Xavier learns when he snarkily comments, “Dibs,” and Bertie snaps back, “You wouldn’t know what to do with it if you got it, handsome.” The only thing sharper than a Gemini’s wit is her mind, and Chef Bertie is no exception, capably remembering everyone’s sandwich order.
However, Geminis are more than just sassy quips and solid cuisine, as Chet learns when Bertie talks him into a quick makeout sesh while waiting for Richard Ramirez’s undead spirit to regenerate. Who could blame him? After all, Geminis are notoriously good kissers. They just have to make sure their boredom doesn’t get the better of them, which is precisely what led to Ramirez escaping on Bertie’s watch.
