Great episode.

Sock and the soul in the hospital? Pure comedy gold.

Will Sam betray the rebellion...again?

Sock playing with the scythe: "I am Duncan MacLeod, the Highlander!" That made me laugh.

Any one else think Tony's demon form kind of looks like a cornugon?

The series is getting better. Lots of good plot development all around.

Another good episode. This show rarely (if ever) disappoints.

A couple of minor things irked me, like when Andi saw Sam chop the head off of the soul the first time. I thought her reaction to him later on was mild, especially if she really thought he beheaded someone. I got over it quickly though.

Couple of really funny lines in this episode though, like when the devil makes the guy working in the porn store pass out. Sam asks if he killed him and the devil says, "I don't know, I'm not a doctor." Awesome, especially with Robert Conrad's delivery.

There was another really funny line but I forgot...might have been something Sock said.

It's interesting how the reaping itself takes a back seat to the show. I'm glad it didn't fall into the "monster of the week" trap and I really love the plot advancement as the show goes on. It's getting better and better.

Yes, I am surprised. I really believed the relationship between Andi and Sam would never really progress, and that it would stay "monster per week". I expected to lose interest over time, but they the stories and the characters are bringing me back every time.

I am really really hoping that Sam will be honest with Tony.

"The devil knows that you are still doing your thing, and has asked me to keep an eye on you." That way, he is upholding his part of the bargain with the devil (you should always keep your promises). But he's also refraining from engaging in any betrayals. After all, the devil never told him to keep the spying a secret.

Of course, that is not very likely to happen. But its what I want.

Yeah, I'm not so sure Sam is smart enough to play it both ways, like plot with Tony in his round room, feed the devil misinformation, and abuse loopholes liberally. I think he's a bit too scared of the devil to shaft him over like this. Of course, I say he was stupid to make a deal with the devil about Andi in the first place; he should know from his own situation the devil has a habit of dicking people over on these things.

Not to mention he didn't need permission to tell Sock an Ben.
