"The Devil's Grip" Sneak Peeks

Some previews for the Venture Bros. season five finale, "The Devil's Grip" for your viewing enjoyment. First we've got a sneak peek at the opening scene of the episode:

And secondly we have the "next time on Venture Bros." sequence from the end of last week's episode. So if you've already seen it, that's what it is. Still, it might hold you over for the next couple of days. Maybe.

"The Devil's Grip" airs this Sunday night at midnight.
this may be a little premature, but i can't wait to hear the audio commentary on the DVD

New theory: Hank and Dean are clones of The Action Man and Colonel Gentleman.

Oh c'mon now you're just being silly. Hank and Dean are from the seed of T.S. Venture. Just ask Ben.

Wow. Hatred's kind of a psychotic ass. I mean, more-so than usual.

He's under A LOT of stress.

I will probably watch this clip twenty times before Sunday's finale. At this point, I'm basically a Venture Bros. junkie. And a shameless one, at that!

My initial reaction is that Dean is getting the better deal, here. Living with Col. Gentleman in Tangier? That seems like more fun than living with the Action Man in Boca Raton. Maybe the episode will change me mind.

I'd agree. I am concerned that Dean and Kiki are so similar looking though. Might make for some awkward late nights, if you catch my drift.

I don't think Dean got a better deal, he would have been perfectly happy in a relatively normal family whereas Hank would have been perfectly at home in the crazy world of Colonel Gentleman. Basically, they were assigned to the wrong godfathers for their respective personalities and hobbies.

Obviously Venture is alive.. but, I'm going to guess someone 'actually' dies at the end of this episode like 24, and will be done for good.

I might be getting repetitive (keep forgetting what site I'm saying what on), but I've been a bit worried for a while now that Hatred won't be arriving back to the Venture Compound after his reckoning.

Not to suggest that it'll be because of death, necessarily, but this season really made me think he wasn't going to be around in the same capacity for much longer. And a situation like this doesn't bode well for the guy who was only around to take the bodyguard job because he was trying to kill himself.

Oh man, I just realized while I was typing this, just how much can potentially go wrong:

Hatred's presumably going after the Monarch's home/headquarters, home of the potential newest member of the Guild of Calamitous Intent.
Who, by the way, are being targeted and followed by the OSI, who were intentionally set on the trail by the Investors.
And the Guild is apparently all being watched by the Revenge Society, who are now affiliated with Dr. Killinger. The OSI and Guild getting into a huge war would be in the Revenge Society's best interests.

Hatred is charging right into one huge-ass powder keg.

And you forget one thing : Hatred is technically O.S.I. This could launch the two organizations into a full-on war much sooner than Hunter had anticipated and throw any plan he might add completely out the window! He's charging into a powder-keg and could very well be the match!

I've been thinking about this as well for a few weeks, and have some guesses and odds for who could get it.

Sgt. Hatred
His character has gone pretty much all the way it can, he's been established as the status quo, and he's entering combat with Monarch. IMO he's the most likely to die. It fits in with Dean's statement about losing everyone who cares about him. (PLUS I really think 21 needs to be the next bodyguard. Doc and Jackson wrote "Cleansuit" last, which featured 21 as basically the bodyguard). Ol' Courtney is a safe bet to go.

Monarch/Dr. Mrs. the Monarch
I don't think either of these two will die, but it's somewhat possible. I do think something is gonna happen to shake up Monarch, moreso than usual. Ever since getting Dr. Girlfriend back and getting to arch Doc again, Monarch hasn't had too much in the way of development. I think now, with the building info about his and Doc's pasts, is the time.

21
I REALLY hope against this, as 21 is still stuck developing. It would hit hard, but it's unexpected, so it's possible.


I think pretty much everyone else is safe, except for maybe the Moppets. 21 could find out that they did kill 24 and go crazy.

Do you think O.S.I. might use 21 as a double-agent? In one of the few season five promo clips yet to air, he's seen walking back into the cocoon. Some have interpreted this to be a back-slide into the world of henching, but I have my doubts. I think 21 genuinely prefers being a good guy, even if he isn't as good at it as Brock and Shore Leave.

Anyway, just a bit of speculation.

I think it's more likely that Hatred asked Gary to help him in whatever operation he's putting up against the Monarch. After all, another clip yet to be seen involves Hatred paying a visit to Gary while the later is soul-searching in the woods.

Jul. 20, 2013, 7:46pm
Yeah I'd say for now it's more likely that Gary is infiltrating Monarch to help Hatred, judging by the sizzle reel. But after Season V, who knows. I do think Gary WANTS to, and a lot in OSI would be okay with that. But in Venture Bros, people rarely get what they want easily.

I'll subscribe to that theory.

a). It won't be time for Hatred to die until he starts wearing a dress - the complete feminization of what was once a man's man. But I think both the Action Man (overdue according to Orphesus's psychic reading) and Colonel Gentleman may take the hit this year. A while back someone mentioned that Col Gentleman says something about being tired of the life he leads. So he may go out in a blaze of glory.

I kind of hope those clips we saw of Venture alive in bandages were just BS made for the trailer, and he's actually dead.

Or instead, perhaps a bunch of characters die in this tonight's finale.

B/c it's ballsy, and it's V deep!

I would like Hatred to shoot himself and burn the compound down.

I love Sgt. Hatred, but it would be so amazing to see something like that happen and the show change forever.. again.

My prediction for tonight:

Pain!

Also the pupa twins are revealed as 24's killers, the betray the Monarch/Dr.MTM and 21 kills the twins. 21 moves back into the Monarch/Dr.MTM's and has a three way (I'm not kidding. After Operation P.R.O.M. I wouldn't be surprised if they go there.)

Title revealed! https://youtu.be/eXJ5OM9RfV8 Synopsis and cast too! “In The Venture Bros.: Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart, a nationwide manhunt for Hank Venture leads to untold dangers and unexpected revelations, while the Monarch is literally out for Dr. Venture’s blood. An imposing evil from the past reemerges to wreak havoc on the Ventures, the Guild, and even the Monarch marriage—it will take friends and foes alike to restore the Ventures’ world to order… or end it once and for all.” The voice cast includes the returning James Urbaniak as Dr. Venture, Patrick Warburton as Brock Samson, Michael Sinterniklaas as Dean Venture, Chris McCulloch as Hank Venture, and The Venture Bros. co-creator Doc Hammer as Dr. Mrs. The Monarch. (Hammer and series co-creator Jackson Publick also wrote the script, and Publick directed.) Other voice cast members include Nina Arianda as Mantilla, Clancy Brown as Daisy and Red Death, John Hodgeman as Snoopy, Hal Lublin as Clayton, Jane Lynch as Bobbi St. Simone, Charles Parnell as Jefferson Twilight, Jay Pharoah as Nuno Blood, Steven Rattazzi as Dr. Orpheus, JK Simmons as Ben, and Dana Snyder as The Alchemist.

Okay, Venturoos. Here's what ya get for the Extras, at least on the DVD version. I felt it was a little light, but that's just my opinion. Deleted Scenes (as always) - Some are B&W sketches with the dialog, others are animated with the dialog. Ghost in the Pro-Blem - An extended view of the distorted images of events from the Pro-BLEM's point of view. Maybe there are some clues hidden in it if you like frame-by-frame advancing. Maybe not. Sirena Goes Off... - Cristin Milioti ad-libbing way more dialog than the script calls for. Poor Rocco. Promo - Basically the season 7 promo. Maybe there's Easter Eggs to find. I haven't done any extensive searching yet. If anyone finds any feel free to post them here!
