Honestly, I felt kinda bad for the Priest after he got that reaction from the kids when he exorcised Molluk back to hell, because they didn’t understand the danger of what Molluk was doing to everyone including themselves and genuinely thought he was their friend. And the Priest didn’t even take their anger personal, he just limped back to his church without even looking for thanks, despite his injuries. He was honestly a great character for real throughout the entire episode. I also like how this episode gave the boys actual character substance with relatable issues such as complicated parent and child dynamics. All in all this episode was a solid 10/10 in my book.

I love Gregor's character depth- all throughout he is both an all-too-serious and judgy old man who is heavy-handed and too strict with the children, but when it comes down to it he very much genuinely cares about them and all his fellow man and is willing to risk his life and tank demon bites to protect the town and do his job. And we see at the end that he gets next to no appreciation for genuinely good advice to Lila. He's not a one-note character you can write off as all good or all bad, but the summation of all his best and worst traits is ultimately that he cares for others and is serious about his faith. Hope to see him resist Eyes's influence later and await rescue

[@synsvids]

He sounds like the kind of pastor/priest I'd want, not the one I have. He's a bit.. "How do you do fellow kids?" kinda way, which isn't the best when you wanna ask them for advice, because you perceive them to be not as wise (I hope this makes sense)

[@silverstar1614]

​@@synsvidsThis character is actually one of the best depictions in media i ever daw of how the ideal priest should act according to Christianity. Rigid when needed, soft when possible, faithfull to the teachings but forgiving for the sins of others... man, if only i found more people like him to teach me literally how to live...

[@samanthakelly718]

No seriously Gregor's a great character and an interesting foil to Skid and Pump. Skid and Pump are friendly but easily manipulated to a dangerous degree, while Gregor's extremely strict, but resilient in his faith for the good of everyone. He's honestly the hero this town needs.

Fun Fact: Moloch is a real demonic entity from old Jewish folklore. People used to sacrifice their firstborn children to him by igniting the interior of Moloch's statue/furnace and burning them inside of it. It became such a problem that according to the Bible it came to a point where they had to make a law to stone anyone they found doing this. The fact that Moloch in this animation is a furnace demon is as accurate as it is scary. Happy Spooky Month Everybody :)

[@юлиятокарева-й4ю]

This series is absolutely amazing, it's a perfection, i'd say! It all started as a joke, but outcame into something really deep and emotional. I like how it showed the "good" characters' bad characteristics (like Lila) and the "bad" characters good characteristics (like Frank or Roy). And also its really cool storyline about the kids-parents relationships. Skid's mom is not a bad mom, she just prefers not to solve her problems and cover her anxiety and sadness with alcohol, and that Pump feels lonely without the help and guidance from his parents, they both feel like they're a bargain for their parents, and actually most children in these kind of situations think about it in this way, like they are the trouble. I really am into this fandom for almost 1,5 year, and I really am obsessed with this show. Pelo, I'd like to say it: you're the best youtuber, animator and voice actor!!!

[@The_Great_Butler]

While Father Gregor was rough in his approach, you could really tell he genuinely wanted to help and protect the kids, even if Skid and Pump took the message he was trying to give the wrong way a bit, partially his own fault for being so blunt and unmoving. He doesn't have the social grace, the demeanor, or tact to talk to kids about this sort of thing in a way that really communicates what he wants to impart. He didn't even realize his guidence was a little too straightforward for ones as well meaning and innocent as Skid and Pump to get fully. Being kids, they thought they needed to be forgiven, else they wouldn't be loved by their parents or that bad things would happen, when all Father Gregor wanted was for them to behave so they wouldn't get hurt or worry their parents. He wanted them to apologize, and move on (words like "forgiveness" are really easy for a kid to latch onto and worry about). Father Gregor knows how sacred the bond between a parent and their child is and cares about it deeply himself and for them, and that's why he, albeit far too rigidly, stayed by their side to try and encourage them to be kinder and to help them build a better understanding of the world. While his approach may not be what works best for Skid and Pump, it was a lesson the kids had to learn eventually. Also, Lila 100% needed to hear that, and Father Gregor was probably the only one willing to say it so upfront. I really like Father Gregor and hope to see him again.

If Father Gregor didn’t exercise them when Skid and Pump voluntarily got possessed, that likely would’ve been it for them. Besides Moloch though, the most they’ve done is just mischief (not counting them causing the death of Roy’s Uncle cause I consider that a good thing). As for Dexter’s Soul I thought that maybe his soul got lost somehow due to Moloch being in his body when they died, not really sure how that whole possession thing works.

This episode especially really shows how he just wants to be better for his mom since his dad's passing, and seeing her just break down as her kid tries to fix a situation that he hasn't truly grasped because of how young he is, is really heartbreaking. And I honestly identify with it a little myself. Also seeing in the background of that final scene shows how even though the house is more cluddered and messy than ever really shown, it feels far more lifeless and empty than when it was clean. The lighting and how the cludder was organized in the backdrop really expresses that well. With the family pictures dangling from their hangers and desks pushed over. I honestly dont know how you guys did it so well. I probably repeated alot of things, and i know i didnt get my thoughts across well, but bear with me. Most beautiful episode by far.

Dude Father Gregor is a badass. I'm so happy you wrote him to be strict and orderly, but not to the point where he becomes a comical asshole. Making him brave and resourceful is something we don't get to see from a lot of religious figures in fiction these days. I'm an agnostic athiest myself, so I don't neccesarily have a horse in this race, but it's just really refreshing to see a fictional priest who isn't comically evil or a total coward.

[@reidj2226]

Alternatively with comedy related or dark medias priests are always reserved or presented as constant child predators or some similar shit. I'm really glad there's not a single joke about it but instead a single acknowledged concern for kids about priest following them and that's it. He's literally honest to god priest who actually knows his stuff and actually competent to take on demons despite age with cross and holy water alone and no additional bullshit like a gun. Kinda reminds me of Faith the Unholy trinity with similar concept of priest taking on demons with cross alone.

Couldn't agree more. As a Muslim myself, it's really cool to see a pastor who's trying to do good for his community. The fact that he's willing to put himself in danger just to keep two stupid kids (no hate to them) is just so cool and refreshing to see. It's really tiring when a pastor is portrayed as a predator or a cult leader. I mean, I get that it's a real problem but not every pastor is like that and I'm glad that Pelo went with this. Hopefully he'll be able to free himself from that demon (forgot the name)

It wasn't just this occasion. In episode 2, her first reaction to seeing them after a home invasion in the middle of the night was "Hey kids, where ya been?" In episode 3, she sent Skid to play with Pump when she was too busy trying to call an exterminator for the "rat" she could've dealt with herself. In episode 5, she let the kids go trick-or-treating completely unsupervised. And of course, in just about every episode, she has no issues with the two going out alone by themselves at night.

Gotta love how we see both perspectives here. She just wanted to relax this time cause her life has been really stress inducing. Murderers, weirdos, burglars, living dolls lusting for blood... ALL of that. And this time she returns home only to be met with her kid (and Pump) crying and some random priest scolding her for being an irresponsible mother. That's a huge punch in the gut. I think father Gregor only assumed certain things (like her drinking regularly which we know isn't the truth).

[@CalixReyes]

fr

[@redballoon9007]

So this episode’s sub theme was definitely parental neglect on both Skid and Pump’s end and as much as I like Lila, I think she needed to hear that from Father Gregor and hopefully she’s gonna prioritize Skid more. But one thing that I don’t see anyone talking about is how they handled the more “controversial” side of the church and it’s morals. It is refreshing that the priest wasn’t a creep but I’m glad that the episode didn’t shy away from still criticizing how Christianity handles “forgiveness”, how not everyone is going to forgive you, how the mentality that “you should always apologize even when you were the one hurt” can be a harmful mentality to have. And then there’s the whole mentality that you have to be “good” for your parents to love you. Despite the priest having good intentions, he put it into Skid and Pump’s minds that the way they are now would cause their parents to not love them when it reality, they are (or should be) loved as they are. And then there’s the whole commentary on priests taking in children and (kinda indoctrinating) them at a young age. I can’t blame some of the towns folk for being skeptical about Father Gregor following Skid and Pump cus….it looks weird lol. And of course then there’s the SLIGHT demonization of Halloween with that comment on Skid and Pump’s costumes. So overall, while not a completely terrible person, Father Gregor does still has flaws but I think that makes him a really solid character.

[@djamtz]

I'm just glad Sr Pelo didn't make the priest the uptight, overly-religious guy that's a common Christian stereotype but that like everyone, we got good things about us just yeah we have flaws Sure, as a real Christian We shouldn't be judgmental which I admit he was a little bit but at least he trys to lend a caring hand in the right direction if I got that right. I feel like something about Jesus might fit in the well but I'm still growing as a child of a God And anyone who is a spiritual Christian who's a bit experienced, feel free to talk to me but still Happy Easter!

[@Yusis-o7d]

I personally think flawed characters are indefinitely more interesting than ones without any major flaws. Father Gregor was raised in a different environment and comes from an older different generation of people, so his view on the world is going to differ heavily from others. He's got strengths in some areas and flaws in others, which makes him feel very believable! My grandfather was a Catholic Bishop before he passed and it was always interesting hearing how he viewed the world. While obviously not a 1:1 Father Gregor still reminds me of him at times, especially when he tried to give advice for Skid and Pump at the start.

I really love how badass Father Gregor is. He really tried to get Skid and Pump to Not Be a Danger to Society for an episode, and make them apologise to the people they already bothered. I mean like, the guy saw a person, literally possessed by a freaking demon. Didn't panic, layed out the priorities - first get the children out of there. He even made sure that the kiddos would be safe with the police officers while he is gone. After that without any hesitation the man went right back in to the demon and started fighting it, not letting it speak nor do anything while he gets it out of the girl's body. Because the two dummies came back he really made sure to protect them, so they don't get hurt and the demon doesn't get to them. After Moloch literally broke through a wall and escaped, the guy with the same nonchalance went out Chasing him around town with no regard for his own safety, only for the safety of people around him. He was able to stay calm even when the demon babies bit him Multiple times in the leg, and made sure to get the demon out of them. And after all that, with a wounded leg he still chased Moloch into the attic and banished it from this world. He's like literally The most heroic person in the entire show.

[@chrimsonphantom]

Also I believe Father Gregor is relatively new in town which is why most of the residents don't recognize him. The town probably needed someone like Father Gregor in town, which is probably why the cult took him out. The mayor probably hired the two hobos to destroy the church after kidnapping Gregor. To also really add to what you said, Father Gregor after getting rid of Moloch didn't stick around to get praise, he went straight back to the church to heal himself up. As he probably figured his work in town was just starting.

The correct portrayal, at least to me.

[@Ambrozy50]

Im christian and I was expecting it to be like a goofy and bad portrayal of the priest but Im actually really glad it wasnt like that and pelo did a good job.

[@tangangsta]

​@@Ambrozy50same honestly. Genuinely glad they actually portrayed a priest correctly .

[@johnny2143]

I’d dissagree, I thought it was a bit goofy/stereotypical/innacurate but I guess you cant make everyone happy 🤷‍♂️

[@meamogus]

@@Ambrozy50 Pelo did a good job in portraying the priest tbh

[@_djc_8223]

The part with the receipt in the grandpa's pocket after he gave them a gift "from the parents" makes me tear up. And Lila crying with Skid hits way too close to home giving her situation and Skid as well. I've watched this over three times and still cry...

[@anomalydrall6205]

"But if they love me then why are they never here?" THAT BROKE ME

[@Minetendo_Fan]

As much trouble as they bring, they are still kids who love their parents as much as the other way round

[@soul_whatsoul]

SAMEEEEEE 😭😭

[@HARUBLEH]

SAME

[@elya_og]

The ending made me cry at this point I really wasn't expecting that emotional moment

[@Kuba_K]

I didnt expect priest character to be handled so well. Especially in parody series. He is competent and has a point, and is entertaining well written character? Its honestly refreshing

[@H1gh_0n_c4tn1p]

This isn't a parody series??? Sure skid and pump were featured as guest characters in fnf, but this show came BEFORE the video game

[@1x1boop28]

​@@H1gh_0n_c4tn1pThis series started as a joke.

[@jordanloux3883]

I really love how this series really gets into the ways a child would think. Kids aren't that scared of monsters, but they are terrified of their parents not loving them... Edit: Apparently I was an outlier thinking monsters were cool as opposed to scary when I was a kid...

[@LeroxYT]

Im not sure about that scared of monsters part

[@ITS_MysteR]

That first one isn't really true, Skid and Pump are just kinda oblivious.

[@AwesomeYena]

Oh no, many children are afraid of monsters.

[@claragemheart581]

Guys, i think that Skid and Pump SPECIFICALLY aren’t scared of monsters. Although most kids are scared of monster, so i agree.

[@Tear-fl3shNblood]

DUDE I loved monsters! Still do lol, I completely understand what you mean though, growing up I was always afraid of not being enough or disappointing my parents, I just wanted to be a good daughter ;/

[@vince_x_san]

just watched the entire series for the first time in 4 hours and holy, what a turn from the first 3 episodes where it was just a goofy show filled with jokes and laughs, but this has evolved into a pretty emotional show, actually shed a tear for Skid and Pump's personal problems, they're just kids that don't know the dangers of the world they live in, they don't deserve the hate they get, and i actually like the Priest, he was a real scene taker, this series is probably one of the best shows i've ever watched, and i don't watch much shows till the end.

[@DragonRagovi]

Even though he didn't deserve that ending, Father Gregor might be my new favourite character in this whole series. His genuine devotion to set Skid and Pump on the right path was nothing short of heartfelt and inspiring, and he was definitely the light of hope this cursed-as-all-hell town needed. It's a shame that he might as well be dead with him being exposed to the Eyes of the Universe though... Once again, excellent work on this, Pelo and everyone else who was involved. This series continues to be one of my favourite indie creations, and I eagerly await next year's installment.

[@BalledPlays]

if i know Pelo im pretty sure hes gonna bring back the Priest to a Mind-controlled guy and Skid and Pump just basically remind him of Faith of God thus making him a good guy that is gonna repel "The Stars".

[@leonardomoya1030]

@@BalledPlays More likely Pump is going to have a massive involvement on that, since he resisted the stars, kinda got "imbued" by the power as we see in every frame he is in the dark, his eyes glow "the stars" glow. Plus the fact he kinda befriended the eldritch beast

[@petasum444]

i dont think hes dead. just brainwashed. This is a pretty big problem for the town since now the cult has power of basically the whole church

[@moltengears7483]

we dont know if hes dead to be honest i hope not. also wasnt the eldritch monster ok with them

[@hostomelhorsehoarder]

I am curious about the mythology of this world. There are christian gods, yet also eldritch gods

[@linkelscotch1170]

I love how this series started as a little joke animation and became a full-fledged story where every episode is better than the last. Amazing.

[@WLOleander_]

I genuinely cried wtf, it's crazy how previous events that in early episodes were random and funny actually became relevant and serious now

[@NewgroundsKid]

DUDE SAME!!! I never cried and laughed so hard at the same time

[@gambitdrawers7802]

The purest demonstration that all evil grows under everyone's noses before people recognize them as a problem.

[@IanLester-j5c]

It's amazing that this show started as a funni 1-minute joke video to make people laugh and then all of a sudden, it's making grown men cry...

[@IanLester-j5c]

EDIT: W priest btw.

[@Crimson-Flame666]

I like how Frank is a Kidnapper, but when it comes to Skid and Pump, he's cool with it. I also like how this just evolved from a haha funny animation, to having a story and actual lore! Good work, Sr Pelo, keep it up!

[@klentastic87]

hes chill with them

[@zackgaming9031]

I love how old monsters that were originally just in the series as jokes, are making serious returns this time, and the story is starting to get more and more serious
