Something that makes Angel’s situation even worse is that, if you pay enough attention throughout the series including the Pilot, you can get hints and implications that at one point, Angel was in love with Valentino which may have been the reason he sold his soul, which adds a whole other level of pain on top of this

Angel Dust deserves so much better than this. The way Valentino treats him and what Angel said about trying to get broken enough that Val will let him go, it's really painful to watch. I'm glad he and Husk have found common ground and can support eachother. And I love the message in "Loser, Baby." It's not your usual, "cheer up, things will get better" song. It's more realistic. Yeah, Angel's life is screwed up, but he's not alone. He now has someone who understands that he can look to for support. That's as good a start as any.

Something I think about is how put-together Husker is in the series compared to the pilot. I know Husker only barely arrived with a bit of insight as to how he operates in the pilot, but I still got the sense he has more control of himself here. But then I got thinking that maybe his time in the Hotel is working for him in different ways. He's in a position that has him looking after the others, even as he holds to his notions that he's not worth saving, he wants to give Angel and the others the chance to be. So he's pulled himself out of the bottle enough to be a guardian to the rest of the group and tell them things straight in the hopes of them sorting themselves out right.

[@mckenzie.latham91]

He used to control souls, now he guides them

[@chichi77tim]

Antony's voice change when he said the second "Yes, Valentino" floored me. He sounded so low, so real. Once he drops his persona, Angel Dust, he's just a normal guy... reduced to slavery and disassociation. He may have had for real a passion for adult toys, flirting and drugs, but everything stopped being fun once It was forced. Too late for him to turn back, now. Poor, poor Anthony.

[@RyuTama42]

I need to see more people talking about his voice change. To be honest, the most heartbreaking moment for me. It wasn’t Angel Dust talking… it was Anthony. The mask was off. The persona was gone. It was raw. There was no need to act, just a need to survive. Gut wrenching.

[@chichi77tim]

@@RyuTama42 Exactly. I don't know why so few people are noticing that voice change. To me, It was like a punch in the guts. We weren't looking at Angel Dust, in that moment. We were looking at Anthony, in his most honest and desperate state. That was probably his voice when he was a young adult and was still navigating in the world. That was the voice that his family and friends probably knew, that was him without any mask on. Now, knowing for sure that he puts on a mask for probably 95% of the time, It hurts to hear his casual high pitched voice. Because know we know what that voice hides.

I have a feeling this particular episode is going to garner a lot of attention. Normally sexual assault is told, not shown, and you're just expected to feel sympathetic for a character without actually getting to experience their pain. This is the first show to have the balls to show it in such raw detail. Something that a lot of people need to see. Especially in a world that's become so emotionless and cruel, and has taken a habit of blaming its victims. The world needed to see this.

Lol just alright??? No​@@1987yk

[@1987yk]

⁠​⁠@@WaltDevil060Problem, storywise, is that the show sort of relies on most people being acquainted with the character, before watching. The creator clearly tried to make a point about all kinds of abuse (showing how people are treated etc and to be thankful not have suffered a similar fate), but looking at the episode from fresh eyes. It sort of makes it look as though Angel has fallen in love with his abuser, but not realising that isn’t supposed to be case. While in other scenes it shows how he hates Valentino for amount of abuse he has done to him. Problem is that it makes people who suffered abuse, look very bad, to outsiders who watch this show for the first time. I can’t really explain anymore right now, considering it requires a lot of thought to phrase it. (Though I’m not trying to hate on the show or anything, I like the show and, Angel’s character considering how realistic his character is, just trying to say is Vivzien (Vivziepop) tried to hit at the right topic, the execution however wasn’t really flawless).

[@SterraRoar]

I think when people think of s3xual abuse it's a lot of the time irl 99% committed by a man, towards men and women alike. So I'd say it's exactly what I would expect would happen to a gay sex worker. The abuse is still committed by a man. That's not just a random number btw. Google r@pe statistics of abusers and towards all genders its 99% men. Not all men, but it's almost always A man.

That could also work really well for Angel and give him kind of a new arc, trying to figure out who he really is and what he really likes and just what he wants to be after losing Valentinos ownership of him. Abuse can leave scars that can take decades to heal, if they heal at all.

[@crypt5129]

I'm dying on the hill that I think he should be redeemed in some way. If you're trying to prove that sinners can be redeemed, what better way to do that than to take someone with no visible path to redemption and succeed in redeeming them? If he can be redeemed, any average sinner could. Think of how many serial killers and cannibals and rapists and such exist in this world that you haven't written off as irredeemable. Hell (literally), Angel Dust was born into the fucking mafia, I've seen many suggest Adam will be redeemed and that mf engages in genocides because he finds it fun (not a sinner, but my point still stands)

On the last part of poison Vox went in the camera to watch angel because he was talking to Val and the he went somewhere else which is the camera and it showed it watching him for like 3 sec.

[@blue_hour_wolf]

9:12 Angel was the ONLY reason why Charlie didn’t tear into him and I believe that 1000000% because unlike most, Charlie respects Angel as a person and even though she wishes to protect him she won’t do anything he doesn’t wish to happen.

[@kozolith2121]

It isn't really that Angel doesn't want Charlie to hurt Valentino, it's just that Angel doesn't know just how powerful Charlie is, so he thinks that by intervening he's protecting her from Valentino, even though the reality is that Charlie could completely tear Valentino into shreds.

[@fangraverwolf5154]

​@@kozolith2121he was protecting Charlie from herself because he knows what it would do to Charlie if she went to Val's level he was also protecting the only pure thing left in his life although I wish she wiped that smug ass grin off his face

[@Neverland1977]

@@kozolith2121 What''s even worse is that Val knew perfectly damn well that Charlie could and would kill him, so he orchestrated the entire procedure on the fly to emotionally manipulate both Angel AND Charlie. Val muscled Angel into believing that Charlie actually was far weaker than him and couldn't do anything, and THEN he manhandled and threw Angel *towards the bed* instead of throwing him *into Charlie.* If Angel had been thrown into Charlie, it would've been obvious that he was following Val's orders in forcing Charlie to leave. Instead, by making Angel get up and march over to Charlie himself, it makes it look more like it was entirely Angel's decision, so Charlie was indirectly emotionally manipulated into thinking that Angel throwing her out was entirely HIS decision and not Val's. No wonder Val has that devious grin on his face the entire time...

[@jaohonaxa]

I mean we’ve known since Addict that there were gonna be some unpleasant Angel/Valentino moments in this show… The one silver lining for me in that scene was when Angel said “….just don’t hurt her.” It was nice to have some on screen confirmation of how much he cares about Charlie. And yeah, Husk’s song is wonderful. Honestly forgot how amazing Keith David’s singing is.

So I’ve been obsessed with this show since I watched it myself and have been watching people react to the series for a little bit now and I just want to say that your reaction to this episode specifically stirred me emotionally more than anyone else’s I’ve watched so far. I could feel your pain from watching this. On a similar note, your reactions in general to this series are fantastic!

[@DrSuperLuigiSeth1]

Abuse doesn’t cause waterworks for me, it just grinds my gears. But daaaaamn, when Angel went “Just don’t hurt her” to Valentino, that got me REALLY close to shedding a tear. Angel's gonna be redeemed far faster than I thought if his base instinct is to defend those he cares for.

[@arcticbanana66]

Angel Dust and Valentino are the exact opposite of Fizzarolli and Asmodeus. While Fizz was practically breaking himself trying to be perfect for Mammon because he thought Ozzy wouldn't want him otherwise, Angel is deliberately trying to be so broken that Val won't want him anymore. I remember on one of the Huniecast podcasts, Vivzie mentioned that Angel's name was Anthony, then a few minutes later checked the Hazbin wiki and saw that it was already updated, but they put Angel's full name as "Anthony Paddle". She didn't remember having ever said anything about his last name, and had no idea where the idea that his last name was Paddle came from.

A tiny positive in this episode is seeing that Angel seems to genuinely care for Charlie. I thought it would take way longer for him to warm up to her. I hope they become good friends eventually.

[@frosted_glaceon5513]

Totally agree, but it's gonna be much more painful if Angel actually makes it to Heaven. 😭

[@TheMadhatter1313]

I think what's gonna be part of Charlie's growth as the series progresses is accepting that some souls don't deserve to be redeemed or want it like Valentino. To them, hell is probably their heaven and she's gonna have to help develop a system for souls like them as well. Some people will just always be rotten to the core. I also think that she's gonna have to start cutting deals with other demons in order to get souls back if they're gonna have any chance of crossing over since Valentino owns Angel's and Alastor has Huskers

[@tyrant-den884]

She also needs to accept the souls which do on their own terms. She says she loves Hell a lot, but she really doesn't seem to understand vice at all.

[@DarkKnightofAnime]

And to add to that I think this is also a lesson Lucifer was in a more roundabout way trying to teach Charlie when he requested she be the one to meet Adam, he wanted her to realize if she really wants this thing to work Charlie has to understand the powers she’s up against and she has to be willing to fight for it Although that’s just my theory, I don’t think we’ll know for sure until the series returns with episode 5

@@DarkKnightofAnime that could be part of it. I just thought he sent Charlie to that meeting cause he didn't want to deal with his wife's obnoxious ex. Friday is around the corner!

[@kateorgera5907]

Yeah, I will say one of the current issues with Hell, as written in this show, is that the worst sinners seem to acquire the most power, so Hell isn't really a punishment for them. Like, Alastor was a freaking serial killer and Val is an abuser. Should they really be able to wield power over those like Angel Dust, who were just addicts? Why put all the common sinners in the Pride Ring? I do hope the show goes into why that is.

[@sakuraice22]

What is also an overlooked interaction is how Valentino is forcing Angel to dance using chains during Poison. But when Husk is dancing with Angel in Loser baby, he is actually holding him and guiding his steps carefully, instead of forcing it

[@Ezzy_B]

Can we just appreciate how surprised Angel is with how respectful Husk is about his space when they dance together? Like, his expressions when Husk just offers out his hand instead of grabbing at him like everyone else does. I swear, they're so healthy for each other it hurts because knowing Val, he isn't going to let/like it when Angel is in a relationship that doesn't bring him profit.

[@MarceloSilva-kp7mc]

Right? The way he looked at Husk when they started dancing and he was just holding Angel's hands instead of holding his waist, that's clearly the first time anyone danced with him without any type of sexual interest involved Also, I think it's really cute the fact that Husk is holding all of his four hands

[@Moonlight.Howlings.666]

This episode really affected me with Angels story. I was SOBBING. The way he said he is doing it so he can completely fuck himself up and break himself so he won't be Vals favourite anymore. Goddamn. Also, Poison is a straight bop, but boy is it HEAVY. Husk and Angel Dust are so cute together. I am definitely onboard with their ship. I really want Charlie to fully fuck up Val. We keep seeing hints at her demon form, and I think had Angel not gotten involved, she would've gone full rage mode on Val.

[@justinriley]

Man, that was rough. But I do appreciate how there's nothing glamorous depicted in Angel's world. Charlie means well, but she doesn't fully understand how to read the room. She's still very much naive about the world outside of her privileged vantage point. It makes for a realistic character flaw.

[@allshookup1640]

Exactly. Charlie is genuinely trying to help, but she doesn’t realize that she is hurting Angel. He asks her to leave many times and she brushes him off. She can’t see the subtly fear and anxiety he has against Valentino because she has never seen it before. She has a LOT to learn if she wants to help sinners

[@AskForDoodles]

What I really like about this episode is how it accurately portrays how complicated it is to be a friend to someone in an abusive situation. It's not as simple as just fighting the abuser, because it'll all just get redirected to the abused. It's essentially a hostage situation. It's also very interesting to see that this episode was where we see the first hints of Angel's true character; even when he's being threatened he still goes out of his way to try to protect Charlie rather than himself "please, just don't hurt her" (even though Charlie is way stronger than Val). Despite his tough guy act, he already cares about her like a big brother (Charlie might even remind him of his sister, Molly, in heaven).

[@carlycrays2831]

Yeah, Charlie and the others want to help Angel, but now is just not the time. Angel isn't ready. Instead, they stop making as many jokes about his drug and sex addictions.

A small, but impressive thing: We've all heard the whole, "No solution is found at the bottom of a bottle" thing a million times in fiction and real life, but hearing Husk's additional, "I should know, I've been looking there for a long time" is just enough to make the cliche exceptionally strong and more impactful.
