Morpheus comes back to his realm and momentarily breaks the hold of The Kindly Ones on Lyta after she sees that her son Daniel is alive. But The Kindly Ones refuse to free her saying they aren’t her to retrieve Daniel they are here for vengeance.
To save his realm Morpheus goes to the waking world to kill Lyta, but Mad Hettie has put protections around Lyta to prevent this. She tells Morpheus that Daniel won't be happy with him if he kills his mother and that’s the last thing he needs.

After a longer than expected break to tend to our own brief lives, Derek and John are back to chat about The Sandman Season 2 Episode 9 "The Kindly Ones" in spoiler filled detail.
The Sandman 209 "The Kindly Ones" SpoilersEpisode teleplay by Greg Goetz
Episode directed by Jamie Childs
Synopsis: Morpheus entrusts the Corinthian to Johanna Constantine, placing in her care a deadly pendant capable of unmaking him at any time—a necessary safeguard against the nightmare’s more violent instincts. Elsewhere, suspicion brews in Daniel’s Babysitter Mrs. Shore. She refuses to believe Daniel is truly dead. Her investigation leads her to the trail of Loki, who cruelly incinerates her to cover his tracks. Meanwhile, Mad Hettie urges a grieving Lyta Hall to summon The Kindly Ones with a promise of justice.
In The Dreaming, Morpheus receives a visit from his sister Delirium. She sought help from their brother Destiny to find her missing doggie Barnabus. But while trying to provide Delirium with direction, multiple Destinies appear. Intrigued by this unusual occurrence, Morpheus has hope for his own situation.
Back at his hotel, Loki brings the charred body of baby Daniel from the fire, but not only is the child unharmed, his humanity has been seared away, readying him for his role as a future god. His twisted plan, however, unsettles his boyfriend, Puck, who, incensed by Loki’s deception, leaves him for a drink at the hotel bar.
Johanna Constantine and the Corinthian track Loki’s movements but inadvertently summon Odin during the pursuit. Their hunt leads them to the hotel bar where they find a disheartened Puck, who hands over Loki’s room key before he returns to Faery.
The confrontation escalates as Johanna and the Corinthian face Loki, but their battle is interrupted by the thunderous arrival of Odin and Thor. The gods swiftly reclaim Loki, dragging him back to his eternal subterranean prison. In the aftermath, a flicker of unlikely affection begins to form between Johanna and the Corinthian, though she keeps her distance.
Meanwhile, Lyta meets The Kindly Ones, who agree to aid her in her quest for vengeance—specifically, the death of Morpheus. In Faerie, Puck returns to inform Nuala that Lyta has unleashed The Kindly Ones upon the Dream King. Alarmed, Nuala searches for her pendant, only to find it has been taken by Titania. The Faerie queen uses the necklace to summon Morpheus, drawing him away from his realm—an act that leaves The Dreaming vulnerable.
With its guardian gone, The Kindly Ones and Lyta invade, encountering Gilbert, also known as Fiddler’s Green. Under their dark influence, Lyta murders him, sealing her descent into wrathful retribution.

Elsewhere, Lyta is visited by The Kindly Ones who tell her that they will help her and Puck bonds with Daniel and is not happy when Loki says that he is a pawn.

The Sandman 206 "Family Blood" SpoilersEpisode teleplay by Jim Campolongo
Episode directed by Jamie Childs
Synopsis: In a flashback to 1794, Dream approaches Lady Johanna Constantine with a task to retrieve Orpheus' living head from France and bring it back to a temple in Greece where it would be safeguarded by priests. Hunted down by Maximilien Robespierre and his men, Constantine succeeds with the help of Orpheus himself, whose song incites the end to Robespierre's tyranny. After returning Orpheus' head to his temple, Constantine asks Dream for a chance to visit Orpheus. In the present, Dream and Delirium pass her grave near Orpheus' temple. There, Dream reunites with Orpheus and he discloses the location of Destruction. Dream and Delirium approach Destruction who welcomes them gleefully.
The three discuss Destruction's departure from his duties and his wards which caused the deaths of Wanda, Ishtar and others. He alludes that mortals are capable of great destruction on their own, without the need of him being complicit. Despite Delirium's plea, Destruction bids them farewell, imparts some advice to Dream and gives Barnabas to Delirium to keep her company. With that, he disappears into the sky. Dream and Orpheus reconcile and upon Orpheus' request, Dream kills him, later mourning him in tears. Elsewhere, the Kindly Ones condemn Dream for spilling family blood.

We continue our chat about the second arc of Season 2 as we discuss The Sandman 205 "The Song Of Orpheus". At the center of this tale we learn all about Orpheus, son of Morpheus, and his epic love poem.
The Sandman 205 "The Song of Orpheus" SpoilersEpisode teleplay by Shadi Petosky
Episode directed by Jamie Childs
Synopsis: Remorseful about Wanda's death, Dream attends her funeral where Death persuades him to make amends with Delirium. Dream enters Delirium's realm and eventually reconnects with her. Resuming their quest to locate Destruction, they seek advice from Destiny. He tells Dream that only his son, an oracle of Endless blood, can help them. In a flashback to Greece, 1700 BC, the Endless attend the wedding of Orpheus, son of Dream and Calliope. That night, however, Orpheus' wife Eurydice dies from a snake bite. Orpheus begs Dream to help him retrieve Eurydice from the Underworld, but he refuses. With Destruction's help, Orpheus then approaches Death and she reluctantly makes him immortal, allowing him to travel to the Underworld. Once there, Orpheus persuades Hades and Persephone to revive Eurydice, but then fails the test of faith presented to him, leaving Eurydice to stay dead. Against the caution of Calliope, the desperate Orpheus lets himself be torn apart by Maenads, murderous worshippers of Dionysus. He, however, cannot die and begs Dream to kill him, to no avail. In the present, with the words of Destiny that “those who seek Destruction usually find it” a distraught Dream and Delirium depart to find the family oracle Orpheus.

John and Derek explore Season 2, Episode 3 of The Sandman "More Devils Than Vast Hell Can Avoid", where Morpheus must decide whether to surrender Hell’s keys to save Nada. The episode delves into trust and desire, concluding the first arc of season 2.
Season 2, Episode 3 of The Sandman "More Devils Than Vast Hell Can Avoid"Episode teleplay by Alexander Wise
Episode directed by Jamie Childs
Synopsis: Following the banquet for the delegates who wish to claim Hell, the Faerie ambassador Nuala runs into Dream and they recount their first meeting.
In England, 1593, Dream inspires William Shakespeare to write A Midsummer Night's Dream and makes him play it for King Auberon, Queen Titania, and their courtiers as an attempt to heal a rift between the Dreaming and Faerie by making mankind forever remember the fae through the play. King Auberon and his queen Titania like the play and make amends with Dream.
In the present, Dream discusses his dilemma with Nuala and she provides guidance based on that first meeting. The next morning, everyone assembles to hear his decision.
Dream ultimately decides to return the lordship of Hell to the Creator, provoking Azazel into attacking him.
However, being in the Dreaming, his seat of power, Dream easily overpowers Azazel and saves his former lover Nada.
Before his departure, Cluracan reveals that Nuala is a gift to Dream from Titania, and Dream reluctantly accepts after Nuala herself agrees to stay.
As the rest of the guests leave, Dream finds that Loki posed as Susano-o-no-Mikoto to avoid returning to punishment in the underworld.
After pleading for leniency, Dream plans to replace him in his torment as long as Loki agrees to be in Dreams debt.
With the conservatorship of Hell resolved, Dream approaches a retired Lucifer and they peacefully part ways.
Later, he apologizes to Nada. She does not accept his apology and leaves for the waking world instead.

Join us for another journey into the world of dreams, gods, and cosmic power as we explore The Sandman Season 2 Episode 2, "Ruler of Hell." In this episode Dream faces an unexpected twist in his quest to release his former lover, Nada, from Hell.
The Sandman Season 2 Episode 2 "Ruler of Hell" – Podcast EpisodeTeleplay by: Ameni Rozsa
Directed by: Jamie Childs
Episode SynopsisIn The Sandman Season 2 Episode 2, “Ruler of Hell,” Morpheus embarks on a journey to reclaim the kingdom of Hell—but what he finds is far from what he expected. The gates stand open, the torments have ceased, and the realm lies abandoned.
Lucifer Morningstar awaits him—not for a confrontation, but with an unsettling offer. Tired of their celestial post, Lucifer has abdicated, releasing all demons and souls to wander the multiverse. After sending away the loyal Mazikeen, Lucifer asks Dream to cut off their wings, symbolically severing their divine duty. In a final act of vengeance and irony, Lucifer names Dream the new ruler of Hell.
Shocked and burdened by this unwanted gift, Dream seeks counsel from his sister Death before returning to the Dreaming. Word of Hell’s vacancy spreads quickly, and soon emissaries from across existence arrive at the gates of the Dreaming to stake their claim.
Among the contenders are:
- Susano-o-no-Mikoto, the storm god of Japan
- Odin, Thor, and Loki, from Norse mythology
- Cluracan and Nuala, emissaries from the Faerie realm
- Shivering Jemmy, representing the Lords of Chaos
- Kilderkin's servant, on behalf of the Lords of Order
- And a demonic delegation led by Azazel, Choronzon, and Merkin
Heaven also takes an interest, sending two silent angelic observers: Remiel and Duma.
To host his unexpected guests, Dream invites them to a banquet in his palace, curated by Taramis, while he silently weighs their intentions. Entertainment is gruesomely provided by Cain, who gleefully dismembers Abel to amuse the guests.
Throughout the night, various envoys attempt to influence Dream’s decision. Susano-o-no-Mikoto, Odin, Shivering Jemmy, and Kilderkin's servant each present subtle or overt bribes.
Later, Dream grants a private audience to Azazel, who makes his offer by devouring Choronzon, claiming dominance, and revealing a dark bargaining chip—he holds Nada, Dream’s long-lost former lover, as a hostage. In return for her soul, he demands the key to Hell.

John and Derek return to discuss The Sandman Season 2 Episode 1 "Seasons of Mist". The opening of the first arc of the series begins with a meeting of the Endless and we discuss it all in spoiler filled detail.
Season 2 Episode 1 Season of MistEpisode teleplay by Allan Heinberg
Episode directed by Jamie Childs
Synopsis: Dream starts to rebuild the Dreaming, but is interrupted by a summons to attend a family gathering of the Endless where he meets his siblings, Destiny, Death, Desire, Despair and Delirium.
As they mention their absent brother who broke off contact with them centuries ago, Destiny explains that the Fates have revealed a cryptic prophecy to him that would start to unwind with their meeting.
Desire aggravates Dream, reminding him of Nada, a human queen whom he fell in love with millennia ago, but condemned to Hell after she ended the relationship, claiming the Endless and mortals cannot live together.
Dream storms off to cool his anger towards Desire but after a discussion with Death, Dream learns that she agrees with Desire and Dream was in the wrong.
Morpheus' intense respect for his sister leads him to consider her assessment far more than he would have for Desire and he resolves to save Nada.
Before leaving once more, Morpheus makes the Dreaming secure by having Lucienne be in charge while he is away and meeting Lyta Hall and Hob Gadling, all in case he would not succeed.
As Dream enters Hell, Lucifer Morningstar calls on their demonic legions, intent to execute revenge on Dream for their humiliation during their past clash.
As Destiny sees the tale unfold in his book, Dream arrives at the gates of Hell and he is afraid.

After he used magic on a local tabby to solve his most recent case, Edwin has a run in with the unhappy Cat King. As punishment he is unable to leave Port Townsend unless he makes the Cat King happy or counts all the cats in his kingdom.
Returning to the Tongue & Tail butcher shop, Crystal discovers a supernatural case in their own home as she learns her housemate Niko has been infested with some Dandelion Sprites. Working together the Dead Boy Detectives extract the angry tiny beings but Niko’s near death experience has enabled her to see the ghostly investigators.
Meanwhile the witch Esther creates a real boy out of her Crow familiar to get her revenge on the investigators and in the Afterlife, Night Nurse gets the trail of the escaped dead boys and sets up her investigation to return them to their rightful place.

When they investigate the haunted family home they learn that the nightmarish murder has been repeating over and again. When Charles tries to intervene and gets caught in the loop, Edwin realises it was caused by the invasive security camera. He and Crystal wipe the security camera freeing the family from the eternal nightmare.
