WARNING: If you don't want to know what happened in this episode, don't read this photo recap!
Feels like just last week Amanda was in the hospital, her legs in the stirrups, and a half-Wishee baby about to pop out of her and fly straight into Orcus's beelzebubian bosom. Oh wait, that's right now.

When Amanda finally does pull through, she gives birth not to a child, but to a clutch of tiny Wishee embryos. They look like gob stoppers. Awwww.
435409
But Amanda isn't about to be used and used up like that. When she gets her strength back, she takes one of her oxygen tanks, lights it on fire, and incinerates 99% of the Wishee embryos. Bad ass. After that, she sets the Wishees and Orcus on fire.

After escaping from the disco inferno, Orcus meets Sax and Merry in the hallway. He uses his telepathy to control Nick's shotgun... and blow away several innocent doctors and nurses.
435411
That's when Happy shows up and works his magic on Orcus, who can see him.
435412
Under Happy's spell, Orcus makes everyone in the hallway start making out. It's kinda hot. In a sexy way, not in an exploding oxygen cannister way.

Flashback to 1995. Sonny Shine is the ultra Dayglo Doug fan, and wants to be a part of the show. But he gets turned out on his ass. He gets drunk, wanders through the city, ends up getting accosting by some kids. Just as he's about to get his ass beat, some naked Wishees comes in to save him.
435415
He wins them over by doing... a dance. Kind of like the time warp, but stranger. If that's possible.
435416
The modern-day Sonny despairs of his ruined Eggstravaganza. But Orcus gives him a pep talk.
435417
For at that very moment, a troupe of Orcus' ex-cons break into a TV executive board meeting and raises Cain.
435418
After applying enough muscle, Orcus' henchmen take over the set.
435419
Meanwhile, Smoothie has put Hailey up in a fancy hotel in advance of her big day as a child assassin. But she starts getting second thoughts when she's asked to take a picture of a mom and daughter in front of a plushie Easter Bunny.
435420
Also, Mother Bianchi is visited by Orcus in prison, and he uses his power to make her kill herself with her own needles. He's sending a message to all the nuns that are bent on his demise.
435421
Mother Bianchi left her personal affects in the care of Merry, who picks them up from the prison. In the box she finds a receipt from a pawn shop. Could be a clue. Merry also gets to keep Bianchi's ashes. Little morning protein shake.
435422
When Merry goes to cash in the receipt at the pawn shop, she gets hit on the back of the head with a blackjack, and passes out.
435423
Amanda and Sax get a call that Hailey is back at school, and that they should come pick her up lickety split.
435424
Turns out, it was a set up. Smoothie's the only one at the school. He knows Sax can't kill him, because he needs to know where Hailey is. But Amanda has no qualms about beating the loving sh*t out of the guy.
435425
After Merry comes to, she's at the center of some strange, occult task force battling the old gods and their last grasp at power. She's initiated into the crew, after they stick a smoldering orb in her hand, and brand her.
435426
And Sonny is gearing up for his big comeback!
435427
At the hotel, Hailey gets a visit from Orcus, now the bellhop. He brings her some pre-assassination appetizers on a tray. Then he dashes, and lets her dine.
435428
Smoothie takes Amanda and Nick to his makeshift lab, and offers them a wager: he will tell them where Hailey is but first, Amanda has to poison Nick with a shot to the buttocks.
435429
And Hailey's last meal? A pistol, a Sonny Shine All-Access pass, and some tater tots.
