Recap

At Louisiana University, three college boys perform an occult ritual in their dorm room, asking for the power to destroy their enemies. The mystic circle glows with power. In a cemetery nearby, a figure emerges from the ground. In the dorm room, a demonic face appears in the smoke and then fades away. They don't notice anything different about themselves. Two of them leave. The leader, Alan, starts to pick up when there's a pounding on the door. A massive white hand slams through the door and grabs him...

Episode Quotes
First College Student: Oh Malefic One, we beseech thee, grant us the power to destroy our enemies.
Second College Student: Especially Brad Turner, who if I have anything to say about it has given me my last swirlie. (his friends glare) I'm just saying – it's humiliating!

First College Student: That's what I get buying a book of spells on the Internet.

Second College Student: My head's going right back in the toilet tomorrow.
Third College Student: Don't forget the wedgies. I don't know if I can take it any more.
Second College Student: Me either - so I stopped wearing underpants.

Aquaman: Check in five moves.
Shayera: We'll see.
Aquaman: Diana told me you used to regularly beat Batman. Difficult to believe from the current pitiful level of your game.

Aquaman: Such scintillating repartee. I get better conversation from the android.
Amazo: You are aware I'm in the room?

Aquaman: Check. (Shayera surrenders) I win again. Huzzah.

Shayera: Aquaman thinks I've been here too long.
Inza: Flowers bloom when they're ready, Shayera. Not before.

(about Solomon Grundy)
Green Lantern: The funny thing is, he's supposed to be dead.
Vixen: Aren't all zombies by definition dead?
Green Lantern: Er...

Amazo: Checkmate. You are improving. This time it took me sixteen moves to defeat you. That's nearly double the number it took last time.
Aquaman: Ahh. Set up the board...

Dr. Fate: Solomon Grundy's grave is empty.
Aquaman: Tell me where to find those responsible, then dig more graves.

Green Lantern: Shayera?
Shayera: ... Hate the beard.

(about Amazo)
Superman: You let him out of the Tower now?
Dr. Fate: I'd be curious to see how you would dissuade him.

Shayera: Grundy, it's me! Remember - Birdnose?

Superman: I believe in second chances. I believe in redemption. But mostly... I believe in my friends.
