Ep. 3: Howard Takes Rio To Haunted Casino Castle Owned By Misery
Aired on January 18, 2011

Howard brings Rio to a storm-battered castle formerly owned by Misery, intending to renovate it for the Howard Resort. Lightning awakens Misery’s ghost, who curses the casino and attacks delivery workers El and Il Adams. After possessing Rosa Canyon, Misery kidnaps Howard and challenges Rio to a dice game for the resort’s control. Rio struggles against Misery’s illusions until the ghost consumes a super-spicy chicken wing from a mysterious courier. This distraction allows Rio to win the bet and free Rosa. Rio then pursues the courier, who reveals herself as Rina, Howard’s childhood friend and new recruit.
