American Horror Story: Freak Show: Pink Cupcakes (2014) [Bette and Dot Tattler]: In a dual role as cojoined twins, Bette is killed after eating a pink cupcake which had been injected with poison by Denis O'Hare, while Dot is suffocated by Denis when she refuses to eat a cupcake on Bette's deathbed. This all turns out to be a part of Denis's imagination as both twins turn down the cupcakes in reality.

Her death is undone when Billie kills Cody in the past so that the apocalypse won't happen.
