Episode Summary & Review
Summary
The anniversary of his fiancee’s death has Gary more down in the dumps than usual, but a chance encounter with a friend may be just what the doctor ordered…or not.
Our Take
This is the show taking a breather from demon slaying to poke at Gary’s grief, and it mostly works because the deadpan humor doesn’t disappear when things get sad. The chemistry between Gary and his old friend feels genuine, even if the ending swings a bit too cruel for the laughs to land cleanly. A quieter episode, but a good one. Worth your twenty minutes.
