Poor Communication Kills: In "Everybody's Dying For the Weekend", Laura's efforts to keep Darlene out of the loop constantly backfire, as Darlene repeatedly ignores her instructions because Laura refuses to explain why following these instructions are important. | |

Deal with the Devil | |
| Little Demon / int_1fc8335e | comment |
Deal with the Devil: Asmodeus made one with Satan. He gave him everything he had—his wife, his children, his services, all his land—in exchange for being at Satan's side during Maximus Dawnus. Satan, of course, double-crosses him and reveals that he killed his wife and kids just for the evulz. He's understandably pissed and tries to pull a Faustian rebellion. Which also doesn't go well. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
| Little Demon / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: One of Laura's tattoos is bad web-translated Hebrew for "stop sucking"note Hebrew does not have an equivalent for "to suck" except in the literal sense of using negative pressure as an attractive force, and the word for "stop" is translated as if speaking to a man rather than a woman. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: In "Night of the Leeches", Satan goes out on a bender with his fellow demons, but soon finds that tormenting humans isn't as fun for him now that he has actual ties to them through Chrissy and Laura. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| Little Demon / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Episode 3, which guest stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, has a twofer: As the announcer for the deadly game show, Arnold's character design is a dead ringer for Danny Devito's appearance in Twins (1988). Later, Satan and Chrissy recreate the infamous "you son of a bitch" hand clap from Arnold's movie Predator. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Little Demon / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In the B plot of "Popularity: Origin of Evil", to make Bennigan popular, Satan starts a rumor about him sleeping with one of the female teachers at his school. The result? Not only does the plan backfire horribly, but the teacher ends up being wrongfully fired and arrested for alleged child molestation. In "The Antichrist's Monster", Chrissy tries to use magic to "cure" Bennigan's self-esteem issues by making him super buff, but her spell backfires and turns him into a monster instead, ultimately leaving him with even worse self-esteem issues. He feels violated when he realizes what she's done and refuses to talk to her. Indeed, when he reappears in the eighth episode, he's still quite mad at Chrissy and initially did not want to get involved with the mother-daughter fight when Darlene contacted him. | |

A Hell of a Time | |
| Little Demon / int_41acc7e | comment |
A Hell of a Time: Having been kicked out of Hell, Satan keeps his power up by making deals for souls with mortals, keeping them all in his "soul hole." There, the souls live out their hearts' desire for freedom without limits. The only problem is that "without limits" means that souls that want to kill people are allowed to kill other souls, letting them regenerate later to be killed again. Chrissy calls this out for the loaded deal that it is, even if she comes to see that it isn't the worst option to have. | |

| Little Demon / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: "The Antichrist's Monster" ends with Bennigan being upset with Chrissy for turning him into a monster and exposing his body dysmorphia to the whole town. And despite her best efforts, he still looks at himself as a monster. "Domestic Disturbance VIII" ends with the house being destroyed after Laura and Chrissy's brawl, their relationship strained after Chrissy reads Laura's journal thanks to Satan, and Satan completely getting away with his horrible actions. | |

Our Demons Are Different: Most of the Devil's various henchmen are a combination of organs, bone, and other viscera, and even the more 'normal' looking ones like Snake With Arms could still be politely described as biological nightmares. | |

Fantastically Indifferent: Chrissy's status as the antichrist, the supernatural weirdness it creates, and the bodies it leaves behind in its wake don't seem to ring that many alarms to the simple townsfolk around them. The only exception to this is the Vatican and the demon hunters they sent, and after the first episode, the only hunter left is more concerned with getting revenge for Satan shooting his dick off than the end of the world. | |
