'''Season 1, Episode 10''':
!Quid Pro Quo
A man in black robes (who later turns out to be Felix Faust) sends out a wicked black smoke to trap a little girl. Meanwhile, Zed is frantically getting her stuff together; she needs to disappear, and this time, she needs to ''stay'' gone. John doesn't get it - how come she can stare the forces of Hell in the face, but not the leader of the cult she's running from? Answer: because said leader is her father.
It turns out that the little girl who was trapped earlier is the daughter of John's friend Chas, John tries to negotiate a deal. ADayInTheLimelight ensues for Chas.

!Tropes present in this episode include:
* AdaptationalWimp: Felix Faust is nothing more than a second-rate loser in this continuity, with the only thing making him a threat being the rising darkness.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Chas gets one, explaining why he's slightly less mortal than everyone else, and focusing on his family life.
* DoNotCallMePaul: Chas doesn't like to be called by his given name, [[EmbarassingFirstName Francis.]]
* {{Foil}}: A subtle example; while Zed's father is TheGhost (and ''extremely'' abusive), Chas is a regular member of the cast and a PapaWolf to boot. [[GoodThingYouCanHeal He gets better]; Faust doesn't.
