2) Kim's dream of the American Horror Story came to life

Fans of the show already know how excited Kim was when she was asked to act in the fan-favorite American Horror Story. She wasn't just excited about her part but was also looking forward to this new chapter in her acting career, hoping to progress in the field.

In The Kardashians episode 2 trailer, Kim is seen throwing a party to celebrate the premiere. As Scott pops a bottle of champagne, Kim toasts,

"I can officially apply for a star on the Walk of Fame!"

Another scene features Ryan Murphy, the maker of American Horror Story, sitting with Kim and Kris. He tells Kim that she was "really really good" on the show and mentions that someone asked him if Kim would do a show of her own.

In a confessional following the scene, Kim says,

"F*ck what did I get myself into? Can I really pull this off?"

This hints at her signing the project Ryan Murphy was referring to, suggesting that viewers might see her on the silver screen once again, possibly in her own show. Fans will have to watch episode 2 to find out more about this new project Kim has signed up for.
