LINK: Recap with an interesting twist!

I hadn't really picked up on this until I read this recap over on cliqueclack.com, writer Keith McDuffee brings up a rather interesting point about the cribs.

"Now to the cribs. I found it interesting that the cribs the two guys put together were two different colors and styles, and they clearly had a good/evil vibe going on. It was as though you could put God in one and the Devil in the other, with the red crib being rather pointed, the white one clean and smooth. After Vivien gave birth to the babies — the first, smaller one being stillborn — Chad is seen burning the red crib in the basement furnace. I’m wondering if that was symbolic of the stillborn baby being the baby meant for the red crib — Tate’s son — and the one that survived being Ben’s. Reading too much into it? Will we find out soon if the surviving child is Ben’s? And will that stillborn baby forever “live” on at Murder House now?"

Completely right about the two different gifts, and particularly interesting that Chad was burning the red crib with no white one in-site. Do you think it was symbolic that Tate's son was actually the one that was still-born? I thought it was interesting that Dr. Montgomery gave Nora the first baby, especially after she told Tate that she would take the baby, not caring about Violet.
