Chalk and mustard circles. Andi's minty brain meds. Ted's g-ay porn codes. Sock in Josie's robe. Pretty much everyone loved this at the time, except I guess blue. Awesome comments, including:
peeayebee rolled out the great quotes:
Stinger: Firstly, loved that the escaped soul was captured in the first 25 minutes of the episode. It's becoming much more obvious that the show is straying away from the whole procedural escaped soul business, and moving to a much more character driven show. Love it. Also loved that even though Cubby put a fight, the three boys were amazing in their abilities in capturing him. Sam especially was super slick and quick with the whip.
pace:That had me on the edge of my seat. I knew it wasn't going to go well. I love how the escaped soul was important to the plot but not in the way we've come to expect. When Ben figured out the trap I was so scared for Sam. The Devil always seems to be five steps ahead. Man that was so wild when that building came down. And now Tony is MAD! I'm trying to tell who he's mad at though, the Devil for winning or Sam for seeming like a double crosser. So is Steve dead?
arcane:I think one of the most remarkable things about this ep was Sam's morality shining through. I mean, this is a guy who sort of helped a group of demons plot to maim and kill the Devil, the being that owns his soul, and he felt bad about it. Sam even made a point to ask about whether or not the Devil would be in pain during the rebellion, and seemed genuinely upset about the answer. Sam's got a huge amount of compassion for not just people (saving the drug dealer human sacrifice that could have saved Sam an eternity in Hell), but also demons (showing sincere regret when the building caved in on them) and even the Devil (not wanting him to suffer, and re-thinking the idea of double crossing him).
peeayebee rolled out the great quotes:
Steve: "Recently we've begun to feel that the Devil's leadership is taking us in the wrong direction. We're tired of living lives of evil."
Sam: "I guess I can't say no."
Steve: "Yaaayyy."
Sam: "From a bunch of demon rebels, I was expecting something more aggressive."
Steve: "We do Fun Runs."
Tony: "What we need to do is ram a nuke down the Devil's throat! Right now! That should be the plan!"
Sam: "Good luck with that, Tony." [walks away]
Tony: "Sam!... Ya need a ride home?"
Later...Steve (singsong): "We've prepared a human sacrifiiiice!"
Sam: "I'm not sending an innocent person to Hell in my place!"
Tony: "Sam, he's hardly innocent. He's a drug dealer. He tried to sell me weed in the park. It's a gateway drug."
Then when Sam tells them how sacrificing someone is evil, the demons all feel remorseful (except for Tony), with Steve saying, "Let's take this guy back to the park. Come on, buddy."
