Charlie and vaggie sat on the couch in the parlor when husk walked in "I'm so excited to see the commercial!" Charlie squealed "Yeah, yeah. I'm get it on in a minute." husk said, turning the TV  on.

The Tv showed a sinner killing another sinner when husk wrapped his arm around his shoulder "Hello you wayward sinner! Are you here cause you were an asshole on Earth, or were controlled by your vice? Of course you were, that why we're in Hell! But what if I told you, you could leave all that behind and change for the better?" husk pointed his cane at the hotel "Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel. A path that will ultimately led to your demise." the sinner looked at him with fear, husk cleared his throat "I mean, a path to redemption. Founded by Lucifer's naive daughter, Charlotte Morningstar. Come place your future in her inexperienced hands, as she tries't work though her daddy and mommy issues by fixing you!" the camera shifted to show alastor serving absinthe drinks while smiling nervously, niffty being niffty, and Vaggie carrying mountains of paperwork "Here we offer fun things, such as low staff, and 24-hour pest control." "Custom rooms and look at this parlor that falling apart literally." "You could be the newest and only resident since everyone else left or died. All this, and more at the Hazbin Hotel! Your last and only attempt at salvation starts here!" husk turned off the TV "So, what do ya think?".

Vaggie and Charlie looked at him "I'm sorry. What the fuck was that?" vaggie asked "Uh, yeah. One note, husk, I mean, first, thank you so much for making this seriously amazing, but um, maybe the tone is a bit... Off? We want people to want come here. This makes it look, um..." "Bad. The word you're looking for is bad." "Weird. I was going for perfect." "It didn't explain anything about how we're trying to save sinners form Extermination, which is the whole fucking point." "Vaggie's right, the commercial was suppose to let sinners know where trying to help them." "Well, I haven't been in power of 70 years and when I asked if I could do anything to help, you told me to make a commercial in two days. Shit like this takes a few days or weeks to make Charlie. So I improvised." "Oh, you improvised. Well, this is not what we want to represent us. When you became an overlord, you said you would help run this hotel. But instead you're mocking us. Nobody's gonna come to a place that a powerful overlord like you thinks is a waste of time." "Yeah, well, every time Charlie here would talk to Heaven we'd get into deeper and deeper shit." "It's not her fault, angels are just-" "Murders." husk deadpanned "Yes, but no.  Angels are just stubborn, but Charlie's trying her best." "Yeah, well, her best is turning out real well so far." "You know husk, you're sounding a lot like al, he always mocked us, and you're doing the same thing and-" husk started growling "I"M NOTHING LIKE HIM!!"Charlie looked at him with fear and tears in her eyes "I'm... Sorry." Charlie ran upstairs, crying. Husk watched her, feeling remorse "Well, looks like someone's gonna have't talk to her... And that someone's name is husk." "Ok, ok. I'm going, I'm going.".

Husk walked to the roof to see Charlie sitting on the ledge, husk sat next to her "I'm sorry I snapped at you." "No, no, it's ok, I was a bit mean by comparing you to alastor." husk nodded, taking a cigarette and lighter from his pocket "I'm sorry about the commercial, that was shitty thing for me't do." husk said, lighting up his cigarette "I just don't understand, why do you not believe in redemption?" husk took a drag of his cigarette "You know Molly right?" Charlie nodded "Well she was in Heaven, but she tried to see us down here and... She was killed and sent down here." Charlie looked at him, sympathetically "I'm so sorry." "It's not you're fault. I know redemption's possible, but the fact you get locked away for being a sinner is sick, and I don't want anyone else to suffer because of Heaven and their shitty rules." Charlie nodded "I understand, but you can't take your anger out on the hotel. You wanna help right?" husk nodded, taking a drag from his cigarette "I do wanna help, and if I do something like this again call me out for it." Charlie nodded and hugged him tightly, husk hissed "Oh, sorry!" Charlie said, loosing up a bit "It's ok, also when you want me't make a commercial give me a few days or weeks." "Noted."
