Episode Synopsis

I read from devil's darning needle to devolution.
 
 
Dragonflies and Damselflies are just long and skinny so obviously one would call them the "Devil's Darning Needle".

But there's also a plant!

More info (but not a lot) about devilwood, a kind of olive.

If you want to know more about "Devil's Theory", read this book. Maybe it'll help.

The word of the episode is "devil's food cake".
It has more chocolate than the standard (lame) chocolate cake so it's denser and richer and darker.
