    Ep. 2 - It was like that when we got here

    Things get heated - literally - in the alley outside the bar with no name when a Succubus sics her henchbros on our travellers. An unorganized interrogation follows and we get to see how dirty Mel's office is. Cold coffee and stale doughnuts ensue.
