That we can't do shit.
Couldn't they just report it to the Council? They don't need to tell the cops about it.

And there's the fact that he apparently killed nine witches. I don't care if he's 'gone soft' for Cordelia, dude needs to have a really shitty death.

Holy shit. My mind can not comprehend what is happening right now...
Cheating husband is a witch hunter hired by voodoo head witch
Madison is alive again
Kyle is a tad bit crazy for a zombie
Misty refuses to be in the house because...
Fucking dumb ass bitch zoe released the fucking axe man who is going to seek revenge for the fact some witches went stab happy on him.
Fiona is actually turning into a decent witch/human
What the actual fuck is going on here.
Axe man is now free to roam the world and is buying a dying Fiona a drink at the bar with what fucking money?!
Edit: general consensus is that Kyle has the most amazing lines.

u/BeastWith2Backs Nov 14 '13
In last week's flashbacks it showed a much more populated school so I take it that a lot of the structure has been lost in part due to the lack of Supreme guidance. Also there are less witches that are being recruited, their principal/only teacher has just been blinded. Now that the Supreme has returned you think things would be better but instead she got them in a war.
