History Recap / ArcherS7E5BelPantoPartI

The Figgis Agency is hired to guard Veronica Deane and her multi-million dollar necklace. Naturally, things go south in a hurry.

* MonsterClown: A gang of clowns invade the mansion in pursuit of Veronica Deane's necklace. They have wacky names and masks that range from creepy to terrifying.

* {{Foreshadowing}}[=/=]RewatchBonus: At the start of the party, Cheryl asks Shapiro to [[spoiler:hire clowns]] because the party is boring. If you look closely after watching both parts, you can clearly see [[spoiler: he's surprised she accidentally guessed his scheme]].

* SchmuckBait: Wearing a necklace that's worth more than God in public is a dumb idea, something almost everyone notices and points out.

* ContinuityNod: Cheryl laughs Cyril after Malory quipped that he's alone while she's got Ron, only for Cyril to retort that he and Cheryl had sex on a blimp.

* MurderIsTheBestSolution: Archer gives some very good reasons to a horrified Veronica Dean as to why he needed to NeckSnap the pink clown instead of either shooting him or tying him up. He couldn't tie him up because there wasn't any rope near by and leaving him tied up would have given him the opportunity to escape or call the others and shooting him would have been loud enough to alert the others to their presence, also shooting someone point blank in an enclosed space wouldn't have done wonders for his tinnitus.
* NeckSnap: Archer's fight with the pink clown ends with the latter dying from this.
