Episode Report Card Demian: C | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT The Demon Who Came In From Thzzzzzzzzzzz
By Demian | Season 3 | Episode 19 | Aired on 04.25.2001
Upstairs in the attic, Phoebe's Fun Bags are back on display. They gaze on impassively while their Biotic Support System tells Cole he can't leave. Phoebe will grant Cole's earlier wish to be stripped of his powers, and that is the end of that. She loudly and hyperactively grinds up a powder using a mortar and pestle. Cole assures her that while he'll just infiltrate and observe, he will need his powers in case the situation gets dicey. Phoebe ignores him. Cole gently places his hands over hers, eases the utensils away from her, and sets them on the table. He promises again to be careful, and proposes he check in with her once every two hours so she can be certain he's safe. Phoebe wonders how he'll be able to do this. If he squiggles, the other demons can trace it. He reminds her they won't be able to follow him if he and Phoebe agree to meet in the Mausoleum's mausoleum. "It's the second-safest place I know," he tells her. "What's the safest?" she asks. "With you," is the response. Remember that detail, so you can solve a puzzling dilemma later in this episode just like Encyclopedia Boobs here will. Clever writers. Not. Phoebe's Fun Bags heave a little sigh of resignation. Cole thinks Phoebe should be proud of him for what he's about to do. Phoebe thinks Cole's being "suicidal," and argues some more about how dangerous the whole plan is. Cole counters that he's being "good" and that they both know it's "the right thing to do." He arranges to meet her in the Mausoleum's mausoleum in two hours, kisses her hand, and squiggles out. Phoebe flails her pigtails about a bit and sighs some more.
Bi Krap Frat House in the Sky. Cole strides in, carrying a bag. Hatchet Face, Liver Lips, and Ron Vilanch turn to watch him walk in. Ron Vilanch volunteers to off Cole. Liver Lips urges caution. Demonic meet and greet. Liver Lips and Ron Vilanch get actual names - Vornack and Tarquin, respectively. Hatchet Face remains silent and glowering like the good demonette little sister from Kappa Kappa Gramma she is. Vornack addresses Cole as "Belthazor," and inquires as to the nature of his visit. The Colethazor tells them he heard of their presence in the city from the "prophets," and thought he'd stop by to help them out with "their plan." "What makes you think we have one?" Tarquin slimes through the thicket of hair on his face. "You always have a plan," the Colethazor smiles back mildly. Vornack asks, "What do you possibly have to offer to save your traitorous head?" "The prophets'," the Colethazor replies as he slides a completely fake human "head" out of his bag. The Colethazor tosses the completely fake human "head" to the floor. Moist, squishy noises hit the soundtrack as the completely fake human "head" bounces a bit like a volleyball before rolling across the carpet to Vornack's feet. Hatchet Face glances down at the completely fake human "head." Tarquin hacks through the forest of hair on his pudgy face with a machete to peer down at the completely fake human "head." The completely fake human "head" gazes up at Vornack's crotch. Vornack stares at the Colethazor. The Colethazor meets the stare, and we cut to black and commercial. Yeah, like Cole actually killed a smelly homeless guy. If you believe that, I've got a pair of tickets to Faithless at the Avalon Theater for you. Oy.
