I thought Episode 24 was one of the best, next to episodes 1, 9, 19, and 23 (gotta love a Half Life inspired episode). Kratos killing Laser-Cat was a surprise, but I am sure that Laser-Cat will be back. Maybe Shanks used the lives-system in his game? And cats also have 9 lives, excuse the joke.
I don't think the last episode will be a 2-parter. Would anger impatient fans like myself.
Also, to add another question, is Gabe perhaps the man upstairs? And who IS the man upstairs?
I was thinking it was G-Man, but he appeared in the Half Life episode. Also Bowser (Mario could be invading our world because Bowser blackmailed him into doing so to get Peach back?) and Ganon. Was also thinking Andrew Ryan for a bit, then he got 9-ironed.
