Hi guys, welcome back! So they dropped Episodes 5 and 6 of Hazbin Hotel Season 2 and WOW, this was absolutely not what I expected, but let’s dive right into it.
Episode 5 opens with Katie Killjoy thirsting for Vox like she’s auditioning for Pick Me: The Musical. Girl. He does NOT want you. Then Bad With Us starts, and I loved Camilla Carmine’s entrance. And Vox, wearing that… salsa mariachi fusion disaster, of an outfit trying to impress her while Valentino is in the background looking like he wants to slam his head into drywall. I didn't think Vox would put his selfishness to the side long enough to gather the other overlords but he caught a good chunk of them like they're Pokemon.
Then we arrive at Charlie. Sweet, naive and spiraling Charlie. When I saw her blasting fireworks in the trailer I thought she was protecting the hotel. But actually? She was sending magical SOS signals like, “Emily! Over here! Notice me!!” The Charlie, Vaggie interaction was so sweet at first… then instantly heartbreaking. More when you realize Charlie’s spiraling so hard trying to prove Sinners can be redeemed, that she isn’t seeing how Vaggie is literally keeping the hotel running with duct tape and vibes. Girl. SNAP OUT OF IT. And Vaggie going to Lucifer for help? Only to find out he can’t really intervene with sinners?? Did not expect that. But the bribe Mammon left him? Hilarious.
Also, the “No Alastors” sign. Why is it plural? Is that even an option?? Should we be concerned? Because I’m concerned. I think we have quite enough trouble with one Radio Demon. Then, THE GREAT QUACKSBY. I lost it. I need an entire Duck Gatsby spinoff IMMEDIATELY. Amazon make it happen!
Then it switches back to Charlie using the last bit of her energy to try to get Emily's attention but then we see that Emily, Sera, Lute, Able and Peter are all watching her while Emily is trying to convince Sera to let them go down and talk to Charlie. But Sir Pentious showing up with cookies?? And Emily saying she invited him because he’s a “Hell expert”?? Ma’am, he is an expert in exactly TWO things: crying and inventing things that go boom but then he drops that “It starts with sorry” line referencing Charlie and my HEART. He really misses his hotel family.
Once Charlie finally sees them, she absolutely PANICS. Emily’s 100% supportive of couse, and Sera looks completely traumatized and Abel still looks like he's wondering if he left the stove on. Then we jump to Vox, and Alastor is STILL managing to ruin his day while being tied to a chair. Vox tries to hype his “vision,” pissing Valentino off. Then I absolutely loved Lucifer's part of Vox Populi! Lucifer singing saying that he's so spooky had me chuckling and it seems that Vox is completely unfazed by him and basically starts his political campaign. I can see the cringe bumper stickers and hats now! Vox saying the Trump catchphrase was took me out. Oh sure Vox, Make Hell Great Again? Again? Its Hell isnt it, the whole point is that it stinks? But I'm sure Vox already has the hats and bumper stickers ready. When the angel squad pulls up with Charlie, he IMMEDIATELY folds like a lawn chair left in the sun. THIS is why he will never outshine Alastor. Vox is a dainty porcelain teacup. Alastor is a cursed diamond that whispers at you in the dark. They might have been equals in the past but Alastor completely outshines him no matter what.
Emily handing out gift baskets as an apology for genocide… NO. Vox was right for ONCE in his life. A gift basket does not cancel mass murder. Sir Pentious playing with his new angelic egg bois? ADORABLE. But yeah, Hell wanting revenge makes sense. Vox is lying and manipulative … but every cult leader sprinkles in ONE tiny truth. Charlie being upset makes sense… but taking it out on Vaggie? She’s hurting the hotel AND herself and now we see exactly how Lucifer and Lilith probably fell apart. Talk about TRAGIC.
Then we go on to Episode 6, Vox trying to smooth talk Camilla, trying the line that he just wants to continue where Lilith left off. Please… lets be so real right now he just wants power, and maybe to kill God on his lunch break. Camilla’s not having it until he manipulates her by offering to protect her daughters. Even Zestial looked confused how she ended up saying yes? I mean they are hellborn, they are not even targets. But I loved how Camilla shuts Vox down at first, and he just instantly tosses Velvette under the bus with, “She’s here to apologize for her childish behavior.” Like… sir? YOU are the petty one here! Have you seen how you act around Alastor?? And Velvette? Somehow she manages to stay somewhat calm and apologizes. I swear I thought she was going to throw her chair at him and leave.
Then Husk rage quitting because of Charlie and Vaggies fighting. Honestly I thought he'd leave once Alastor was out of the picture, but I guess he's really a softie at heart! Also Nifty and Baxter playing patty cake off on the side was super cute! Though I do wonder how Nifty convinced him to do this! It was so cool how both Vaggie and Charlie reacted in the same way when they heard that Camila was making weapons for Vox despite fighting and they both went to talk to her, but leaving Nifty in charge of the hotel? Like what? Why? Leave Cherri. Leave a Roomba. Leave literally ANYONE else. I was surprised that Husk went to a casino, thought he had outgrown all of that but his solo song Love in a bottle is amazing! It's extremely sad, but at the same time the music is great!
Vaggie and Charlie go to talk to Camilla, fighting each other all the way there. Camilla explains to them that she doesn't have time for their theatrics and that she's helping Vox to keep her daughters safe. Then Angel's new song Losin Streak was totally amazing and it's a great reply to Husks song but I have to say Velvette outdid herself on Angel's dress. It's totally gorgeous!
Then Valentino working with his top talent to find a good costar for Angel. Oh my gosh. But then Vox comes in and kicks everyone out. Val isnt happy, then Vox ask to borrow Angel, which puts him in an even worse mood. Vox explains that the next step in his big plan is going to make Charlie wanna delete herself, but wouldnt doing that break his deal with Alastor? I mean the deal, was that he couldn't hurt Charlie. Soooo? Is Vox just not thinking this through? Who knows? Val tells him that its his and Velvette's plan too! That he doesn't want to be sitting backstage again, Vox tries to manipulate him but Velvette and Alastor pop up almost out of nowhere. And Velvette makes a great point, Vox only makes time for them when he needs something because of course he does.
Then Alastor laughs at him and Vox tries to brainwash Val with his abilities despite knowing full well they don't work on him. Alastor is really driving Vox insane and I love that the Vees are slowly getting separated and it's all because Vox is being a power hungry maniac and trying to prove himself to Alastor but I absolutely loved when Valentino tells Vox hes from Florida and throws his drink at him hilarious!
Then of course Vaggie comes back to the hotel and naturally it's a complete disaster because well, she left Nifty in charge. What did she expect? But it was great to see that Nifty and Baxter became closer and he helped her to make a bug band, which is absolutely cool. I need a CD of the Bug Band!
Then it gets better when Charlie and Vaggie make up. I gotta admit I was worried there for awhile. and Charlie really dropped a bomb, she was working on the hotel in part because she thought that if she did a good enough job that her Mom would come back. I mean we all knew Charlie had Daddy issues but now its confirmed that she has Mommy issues too. One could say she has more issues than she has tissues. But I will say this I absolutely love the Vaggie Charlie song, Easy. Its so good. And I absolutely love Charlies dress in it. Its so pretty and flowy! Then Husk telling Angel that he quit the hotel, I could tell he seemed really disappointed. Angel asks if Husk is still mad at him, which fair enough but Husk shouldn't have gotten mad in the first place but he did because he doesn't think he's worth it. I feel for both of them. But they desperately need each other, they both make the other better. And I loved how Angel told Husk that hed see him later at the hotel even tho husk said he quit. Because they both know deep down that Husk wants to stay at the hotel because Angel is there. Then that ending… I actually loved it. Valentino is clearly furious with Vox for how he’s treating Angel. And yeah, Val is awful, no denying that, but I genuinely think Vox’s behavior is forcing him to look in the mirror. The way he held Angel’s hand at the end? If he didn’t care at least a little, he wouldn’t have done that. Sure Valentino and Angels relationship is completely toxic, but I’m starting to feel like Val is having his first tiny spark of self reflection. He hates being controlled by Vox, and it’s finally clicking that he’s been doing the same thing to Angel. What do you guys think? Let me know in the comments! Also I loved how Charlie and Vaggie made up! Then Vox pretends to be Charlie to lure Lucifer out?? Oh the next episodes are going to be INSANE. Also, can sinners even use their powers against Lucifer?? I HOPE NOT because Vox is about to go full villain mode and I dont think Im ready.
