After a yearly extermination imposed by angels, She opens a hotel in hopes that patients will be "checking out" into Heaven.

WARNING: The episode we talk about centres heavily on sexual abuse, violence and drug consumption. If any of these are triggering, please, skip this episode. The episode begins with Angel in an “adult” film, which is grotesque enough to make Charlie and Sir Pentious hide away in horror. Vaggie demands he turns it off, while Husk comments about it being fake. Angel takes offence, and insults Husk in retaliation, who rebuts with everyone’s problem: Sir Pentious is insecure and lonely, Charlie wants to solve all problems except for her own, Vaggie hates everyone because she hates herself, Niffty is sadistic, and Angel is fake. Just as Angel and Husk are about to delve into an argument, Valentino calls and demands Angel’s presence for an “emergency shoot," Charlie is adamant about finishing one of her trust exercises, but Angel leaves anyway: prompting Charlie to intervene. Charlie turns up at Valentino’s set and demands to speak to him. Angel refuses, panics and worries for her safety, but Valentino notices her and invites her to have a role. Charlie vehemently declines and declares her wish to speak with him right after his work. While polite to her, Valentino is angry. Charlie’s interference on the shoot causes a fire, which Valentino puts out, but then takes out on Angel in his dressing room. He reminds Angel that he owns his soul, and threatens to harm Charlie unless Angel gets her out of his studio and business. Charlie witnesses the treatment of her friend and gets mad, but is quickly stopped by Angel, who, in his worry for her, loses his temper and forces her out. Valentino makes the shoot especially hard in punishment. At this point, Angel sings Poison: • Poison Full Song | Hazbin Hotel | Pri... After the shoot, Angel attempts to flirt with Husk, who isn’t interested and calls him fake. This causes Angel to lose his temper, briefly morphing into a spider-like demon, before storming out, both furious and upset. Vaggie tries to get Husk to bring him back, but Charlierefutess and asks Husk to keep an eye on him instead. Husk finds Angel at a bar, drinking his miseries away. Husk gets himself a drink and sits to watch until he realizes that the company Angel is with is spiking his drinks. He grabs Angel, fights them, and drags him out. Husk accuses Angel once again of being fake and playing up an unnecessary persona and Angel states that it isn't him being fake nor is it unnecessary because it's what he needs to be to survive. Angel gets angry and explodes everything. He hopes that by doing drugs and other poor behaviour, he’ll become too broken for Valentino to want anymore. In an attempt to comfort, Husk confesses that he was once an overlord. But his gambling addiction caused him to gamble his soul away to Alastor. The two bond and break into the song, Loser, Baby: • Loser, Baby Sing-Along | Hazbin Hotel... Angel and Husk return to the hotel, with a frantic Charlie apologizing for ruining his day and getting him in trouble with Valentino; however, Angel dismisses it, having already forgiven her. It ends with him and Husk having a drink.
