if you've seen the buffy episode, this is very similar and does play on that possibility too

Ash is finally "insane", like your theory.
It doesn't resolve itself at all. Kelly doesn't fight the puppet either, so I guess that happens in a later episode.

Not really though. It's
all Baal playing with Ash's mind to get him to destroy the book

This, it was so obvious.
Boring episode, we didn't need 30 minutes of mind games to have Baal brainwash Ash.

The episode will be more impactful when watching the series all together in marothon mode.
It's pretty much our only pure character development episode. No deadites. No big action. etc

i actually thought it would have benefited from being an extended episode to make Ash's breaking more believable.
imo

I thought that, but the next episode has
Ash trying to kill Ruby and Pablo.

Pablo is the book. To destroy the book, he must destroy The Pablo.

Well, yes, but the whole concept of the episode is that it takes place in Ash's mind as Baal tries to manipulate him. Ash
succumbs to Baal's will at the end, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's gone insane

It was pretty obvious to me Ash looked out the window, saw the gang arrive, realized/confirmed the asylum was an an illusion, and decided to simply play along until he could turn the tables.

That's a distinct possibility. I'll have to watch it again with that in mind.

Agree, one of the best episodes of the franchise. Funny when it needs to be but the overall tone was very serious, perhaps the first truly serious thing in the entire saga.
Even Bruce showed a performance like I have never seen before, believable and real not B acting by any stretch.
I think the way he played it is one of the most jarring thing because it feels real and natural.
Also plays of the old time speculation about whether any of its real.

Yeah that was a fantastic episode. I usually dislike 'mind games' plots, but Ash and the entire episode were hilarious.

ep. 7 was god awful IMO. i've loved this season a lot (way more than i liked season 1) but yeah, ep.7 blew.

I wouldn't say it was God awful, but I was disappointed by it. We all know it was in Ash's head, and that Baal was pulling the strings. Thus, there was no dramatic tension. Any idiot could see where it was going from the first minute. It was funny, but that is all I can say about the episode. I guess the puppet was the real stand out element.
The episode was the low point for the series to me. It is sad because I have liked this season better than the last.
