In a middle class home, an Asian technician is explaining a procedure to a middle-aged couple.  They discuss an amount of money in exchange for only 15% of…something.  The husband agrees, signs the contract, and gets a needle/scope inserted behind his knee. A tiny portion of what turns out to be the husband’s soul is extracted, and they get a check for $150,000. The technician climbs into the back of an armored car (with “Soul Happy Go Go” written in Japanese on the side) and heads to his next destination (with time out for a grilled sausage break).

The armored car stops at a ritzy mansion and the technician goes inside. There an older man shows the technician his wife, suffering from dementia. Using an odd scale, the technician compares the soul stuff to the wife’s wedding ring: an almost perfect match. The soul gets dropped into a centrifuge and turned into a pill. The wife takes the pill and, bam, her dementia is gone! The technician runs the man’s credit card for $2,700,000. Another happy customer!  Back at the armored car, the guards lock the technician in the back again.

Cassidy is trying to be nice to Denis, who is not enjoying the company. Tulip decides to make pancakes for everyone, and they chat about getting back to their search for God. In the meantime, Viktor’s daughter leads the Saint of Killers up to Denis’s floor in the apartment building, points to one door, then runs away. The Saint busts in, kills the guy there (who is not Jesse), then proceeds to break in to each successive apartment, killing whomever is inside, in his quest to find Jesse.

One of the Saint’s bullets travels through each wall and gets lodged into Denis’s refrigerator.  Jesse hears something and goes to investigate leaving Tulip and Cassidy to their chat. He finds the bullet stuck inside a yogurt, and warns the others.  The Saint busts through the final door and–they’re gone, through an open window. The Saint looks down at one plate of pancakes and sees “J-E-S-S” spelled out in M&Ms.

Jesse calls the Mumbai Sky Tower and discovers that Fiore is dead, killed by a cowboy.  He wonders why Genesis didn’t work on him. MONTAGE: the gang are at the library, researching as much as they can find out about the Saint of Killers.  Among other things, they discover that his soul shattered into oblivion after the death of his daughter and wife. He is the only man on earth without a soul.

Suddenly Cassidy remembers Denis, back at the apartment. He calls to warn him, but–uh oh. The Saint is about to kill Denis. Through the phone, Jesse tells him to stop and wait for Jesse to show up.  When he arrives, he shows the Saint the videotape of “God’s” audition to show that the real God has disappeared. God can’t do anything to help the Saint, but Jesse now can. The Saint wants into heaven to be with his family, so he gives Jesse one hour to get him a soul.  The Saint will keep the others as hostage in case Jesse doesn’t come back. 

In one hour.

Jesse goes to the House of Voodoo, but introduces himself as Jesse L’Angelle, looking for a soul that matches the Saint (Jesse kept the bullet). The owner, Papa Bebe, says that he no longer is in the soul business since the Japanese bought up all the souls and stole all his customers. Coincidentally, the Soul Happy Go Go armored car drives up so that the guards can get their sausage rolls.  Jesse tries to use Genesis on the crew seated in the front, but they can’t hear through the bulletproof glass.

Tulip calls him to warn him that time is running out and Denis needs asthma medicine.  Jesse asks her how to break into an armored car and Tulip gives him a list of ingredients. He goes into the nearby hardware store, grabs it all up, quickly makes the bomb, attaches it to the car, and…tiny little puff of smoke and not much else. It drives away.  And then a police car pulls up.

Back at the apartment, Cassidy drops a bomb of his own: Denis is his son. Tulip goes to the Saint to ask if Denis can at least go get medicine. He picks her up by the throat and tosses her aside. Shocked, she touches her face where his fingers were and sits back near Cassidy.

Jesse commands the police to pull over the armored car, and then forces them to open the back.He makes the technician test all his samples against the Saint. No matches. Then Jesse asks him to test himself. 

A match.

Jesse gets 1% of his soul (the smallest amount you can get) turned into a pill. Tulip calls him again, desperate , and Jesse tells her he’s almost done.  But the hour is now up, and the Saint drags Tulip into the kitchen, raises his sword to strike her down, and–Cassidy grabs the sword in his bare hands! His fingers are immediately chopped off and fall to the ground like so many steak fries.

But that distraction was all the extra time Jesse needs who has arrived with the soul pill. Tulip takes the other two to the hospital, while Jesse gives 1% of his soul to the Saint, who greedily swallows it.  However, now that the Saint has a soul, he is under Jesse’s/Genesis’s command.  Jesse is just about to send him to hell when the Saint reminds him that Jesse’s soul (or, at least, 1% of it) will also be there. So, instead, Jesse traps the Saint in the back of the armored car and drops it into the swamp. As the car slowly sinks lower and lower, the Saint yells out, “PREEEEACHERRRR!!” And then it’s gone.

Later, Cassidy shows Denis a new TV, Tulip is still freaked out by the Saint’s touch, and Jesse hides the Saint’s guns under the floorboards.

Denis is Cassidy’s son?? Jesse used to be a L’Angelle? And is the Saint really gone for good? Another amazing episode that honors so much of the original comic while also blazing its own trail with the characters we’ve come to know and love. There was some real suspense as the Saint moved from apartment to apartment, looking for Jesse, while Jesse sits with his friends, unaware of the danger creeping closer and closer. A fun episode. See you next time!
