A martial arts master of the Hard Qigong style with a heart of gold, Ricky will stop at nothing to make sure evil is put down for good! Our pal Jenna Fryer joins us to break down everything Riki-Oh, including the manga, anime, and more.

When he tries explaining things to Emily, she is now fully under Bravo's sway and kills him in the exactly the same way as Bravo's husband. The episode ends with both Emily and Florence giggling madly; implying Emily was given the death sentence and has become a ghost.Directed by John Lewis and written by Edithe Swensen Original airdate: October 19, 1986
