Alternate Title: Paper Mario & Ruby Lets 'Em Have It

Other Alternate Title: I Think I'm Going To Be Sick

Last week's episode provided us a lot of questions. Will the cat be an ally? Will Jaune be the hero for once? Will Ruby make any actual move towards developing as a character? Was all of this necessary? Will there be a gay wave that finances RWBY enough to greenlight Volume 10? The answer to all of these questions is no, but unfortunately, I've got to spork anyway.

It won't come up until Episode 8, but please be aware that a character commits suicide in this recap. That's your forewarning, and a more substantial one than Rooster Teeth gave, which was merely about 'distressing themes'. I mean, it has those too, plenty of them. You name it, Episode 8's got it. Excessive violence, trauma, manipulation, suicide, uncomfortably rape-y imagery... I'll put another warning ahead of the actual episode.
( I will not forgive them for this. )
