[NOTE: This is a re-upload of an older episode that I accidentally deleted. While it's not my best show, and definitely not my most popular episode ever, I'm reposting it for the sake of complete-ness.]

This episode is devoted to some ominous songs. The episode title does not include a question mark, and that is intentional.
