🎧 THE TROUBLE WITH ANGELS — Season 1, Episode 6 The Apocryphal Adventures of Gabriel and Michael (Chapter 7) By Glory Fink
Two archangels. One missing God. One apocalypse memo… conveniently lacking a timeframe. Michael shows up in Heaven like he owns the place, Gabriel is having a disco-mice day, and somehow “end all life on Earth” becomes a sibling road trip in a borrowed holy convertible.
In This Episode (Spoiler-Free)
An urgent divine order arrives… with suspiciously missing details
Michael and Gabriel weaponize loopholes and affection like professionals
A New Orleans detour includes incense, poboys, and a tattoo parlor with Fern
Heaven’s “Perfection Rule” makes things… complicated
A moment of real tenderness breaks through the chaos
A very specific vehicle is acquired for the road trip (with upgrades)
⚠️ Content Advisory
This episode includes: apocalyptic stakes, existential distress, grief/longing themes, references to ending life / oblivion (non-graphic), and emotionally intense conversation handled with care (with comedy throughout).
