Another revisit to Season 6 for this episode. I had a pretty fair memory for it, but I thought it was time for a revisit to see how it has held up.
The episode is pretty simple. It's about a greedy, adulterer artist who makes graphic paintings for a soap company that kills her husband as part of an effort to revive her work for the soap company. She later processes her husband's body into soap and then (in the most memorable and gory moment), gets her body burned down by the acid from the soap that her husband's company has used to make soap.
Not really much to this episode. The main female character is pretty repugnant of a person, but I think that's the point which makes the ending more effective. It's certainly not bad although I don't know if I'd consider it one of the best for Season 6. But it kept me engaged enough and I liked it more than disliked it. The most memorable part was the ending that I mentioned. I do think it's very silly though how a giant bar of soap (which doesn't weigh much) would cause a person to get their head bashed in. Also, it's unrealistic that a bar of soap (even if it contains acid) would burn a person's body up. But still, nobody necessarily watches TFTC for realism.

Been a long time since I last watched this one. I remember it being okay, not the best nor the worst the show has to offer. Would be interesting to see how it holds up for me when I see it again.

Silly ending - does it mean that any bar of soap from this company could cause a person's skin to melt? Ick!
Besides that, the main character may have been completely repugnant as a person, but her husband was no angel as far as I remember. Didn't he threaten her in someway right before her killing him? (It's been many years since I last watched it)
Definitely not one of the best Season 6 episodes.

The ending is just so over-the-top and ridiculous, even by TFTC standards that it just doesn't work for me.
