Angel Dust's betrayal in Hazbin Hotel Season 2 Episode 7

Everyone gathers around the hotel. Angel Dust drops a bombshell announcement, telling everyone that the hotel is not real and advises them to join the Vees instead.

They have an actual plan to fight Heaven, and Angel reveals they hold a powerful weapon created by Carmilla. The weapon is called the Might of Lilith. It is a huge cannon that uses Lucifer's stolen powers to charge up.

The weapon demonstration

Vox decides to display the weapon's power. He aims it directly at Heaven. The blast fires upward, shattering Heaven's protective barrier entirely. The seal that kept Heaven safe is gone, and the pearly gates fall to Hell. At the moment, Heaven is vulnerable to attack.

Vox broadcasts a message across different realms, giving Heaven exactly 24 hours to respond. They must surrender to Hell's demands, and there will be another execution on their refusal. This execution will be totally public, and Lute hears the message in Heaven. She feels inspired to strike back hard. The sinners have crossed a line here.

Sera's difficult decision

Sera encounters a difficult choice in Hazbin Hotel Season 2 Episode 7. She must decide the response of Heaven, and Pentious observes her stress. He approaches Sera with warmth and offers to listen to her stress. He wishes to help in whatever way he can. They even share a musical duet all together. Amongst this Pentious proves to be a supporting presence.

Sera at last makes her decision, and she chooses to prepare Heaven's forces for war. Lute starts organizing the troops and she holds back her complete anger reluctantly. Emily steps forward with a separate plan, and she wants to resolve things with ease. War does not have to happen as of now.

Meanwhile, Alastor finds Vox all by himself. He taunts Vox about his invasion scheme, and Alastor points out a prominent flaw. Vox has not even conquered Hell completely. This explains why few sinners rally to his agenda. Alastor also doubts others and does not believe Charlie will help Vox. Charlie will never admit the hotel fell apart. Alastor realises that Vox is easily manipulated.

The Broadcast plan

Emily comes to the Hazbin Hotel and the group sits down together and tries to make a plan fast. Baxter shares engaging information. Hell has been stealing Heaven's TV signals, and he designed the whole pirating system himself.

He knows how to broadcast to all of Hell, and he agrees to help the hotel. They have treated him well. Broadcasting to Heaven requires similar expertise, as it needs someone equally skilled in Heaven. Pentious is the right fit for his job as he can set up the Heaven broadcast; therefore, the plan starts coming together.

Building toward war in Hazbin Hotel Season 2 Episode 7

The war between Heaven and Hell escalates very fast. The Hazbin Hotel stands in the middle, and something extraordinary must happen to stop this. The utilization of Pentious and Baxter is very smart and clever. They bridge both realms together in a nice way.

However, Lute's role remains undefined in Hazbin Hotel Season 2 Episode 7. She had a powerful musical number in the past, and since then, she has barely appeared. Her moment seems to close. Vox's team displays cracks in unity, showing that they are not a tight-knit group. The overlord encounters internal issues, and his plan to invade Heaven becomes difficult to achieve.
