C.H.E.R.U.B.

Spoilers ahead: I will be talking about what happens and how the episode ends.

If you wonder what a Cherub is, according to multiple religions such as Abrahamic, Jewish, and Islam. A Cherub looks like a human baby with tiny wings and encourages love. They attend to God directly.

Heaven and Hell have been at war since…whenever. Always trying to get the human to pick aside. In this Episode Called C.H.E.R.U.B.

Three cute, colorful and spunky Cherub named Cletus, Keenie and Collin. Find out that an old man named Lyle Lipton (Michael Ruocco) plans on killing himself because he sees no point in living. Of course, I.M.P could have done their job and killed the dude. Who hired them? Lipton's old business partner Loopty Goopty, it seems both men were affected by a machine that was supposed to reverse their age sort of like a fountain of youth, but more machine. Unfortunately, both screwed up and became old men. Loopty Goopty died right away, thinking Lipton took credit for the device. Loopty Goopty wanted the old dude dead.

Just as Lipton is about to kill himself, The three cherubs come to convince him that life is worth living by showing him joyous things like nature, childhood innocence, and love.

Now you would think Blitzo, Moxxie, and millie would back away and let the Cherub do their job, but let's get real. It's a cartoon. Shit got ugly really quick because I.M.P. follows the group and sabotages all of the cherubs' attempts.

It is the circle of life.

From nature showing the so-called circle of life, you eat, you fuck, and then you die. So yeah, we see the animals kill and eat each other.

Childhood innocence I'm not going to touch this one because in the cartoon, what was shown was, in my opinion, gross, and kids are not innocent; they are stupid and wild. (Again, my opinion)

Finally, when it comes to love, we all want love; best of all, love has no age.

Oh for crying out loud!!!

The three Cherub try to show Lipton that he can find love but, seriously, at a make-out hilltop with many horny people.

Blitzo and Moxxie dressed up as women (yeah, with dresses and full-on make-up). I think they would have made a drag queen laugh.

And it doesn't stop there, next stop Opera.

Moxxie said there was nothing terrible about Opera; I am sorry. Still, I can't stand it (That is all I am going to say because I can go on and on about how bad it is, and I don't want issues) While inside a theater with a live opera,

Heaven and Hell fighting on Earth...again

The Cherub and I.M.P. break out into a fight, both confront each other saying they are interfering with the human world. (I'm pretty sure Cherub have the 100% right to interfere with the human world) While fighting, everyone is either shot or sliced but not Lipton. He sees the amount of trouble that the cherubs and the demons are causing over him. Finally, Lipton realizes the significance of his life and decides to live, good choice, but bad timing.

Because the cherubs accidentally crush him under a piano. I.M.P. was happy saying the Cherub did the job for them.

Looks like you did our job for us.

The cherubs are promptly exiled from Heaven by their superior Deery for inadvertently killing Lipton. This is pretty messed up, especially when I.M.P. returns to Hell, so when the Cherub tries to show that I.M.P. is one to blame.

Is that Bambi?...oh shit!!!

To be honest, Deery looks so much like Bambi but with pants and tiny wings, believing Lipton's soul went to Heaven. Blitzo figures he would just send a text to. However, just as Goopty confronts them for failing their job,

Lipton arrives in Hell and reconciles with Goopy.

Check out the episode.
