Nightmare Fuel / Wishbone S 1 E 12 Fleabitten Bargain

• Just the fact that they did a version of Faust.
• Here, Faust is well-meaning rather than greedy. When he finds out that the Devil led him to abandon a dying Gretchen, he tries to go to her. Faust arrives just a few seconds too late. He curses the Devil for taking away his girlfriend.
• Faust then lives a mostly decent life, trying to be kind and not invoke the Devil's desires. When talking with an elderly couple that is housing him, he offhandedly says that their home is great, and he wishes it could be his. Then they vanish before his eyes, and the Devil gloats that Faust made this happen.
• The inventor who tried to get Joe to trade Wishbone for his VR machine. Not only did many viewers find someone trying to get Joe to trade his beloved dog (who also happens to be a gift from Joe's deceased father) unnerving and distressing (especially since Wishbone quickly found himself disliking the man) but parental worries blasts in when the man follows Joe home to keep up the argument; said viewers tend to feel Ellen and Wanda don't display nearly enough distress over the situation.
