Annville looks like its heading toward oblivion and we finally find out about Jesse and Tulip’s complicated history. Oh, and there’s a divine appearance (kind of)

There’s horror, violence and mayhem as Cassidy and Emily have a showdown and there’s a Sheriff Root moment of maximum intensity

We don’t get the big confrontation we were promised at the end of last week’s episode, but we do find out that Jesse is pretty handy with a rifle

We get a bit too much backstory, a glimpse into hell and – perhaps most terrifying of all – we find out more about Cassidy’s taste in films

Things are getting complicated for Jesse Custer as the angels wreak havoc, Genesis is revealed, and he forms a love triangle with Tulip and Cassidy

The literal, actual existence of heaven has been confirmed to Jesse and the preacher will have to respond – and what the hell is going on with Quincannon?

Jesse makes Quincannon a bet he can’t refuse, Cassidy continues to fend off the angels, Niles has a tough night and Tulip tries to bring justice to Annville

Jesse and Tulip’s past life comes into focus, while Donnie has a truly terrible trip to the toilet and the ‘government’ men make an unlikely return

Cassidy has stolen the church’s wine, Jesse deals with temptation and The Saint of Killers might have made his first appearance. Preacher is heating up.

A whirlwind opening episode takes us from outer space to small-town Texas via Africa as Jesse Custer finds his theological superpower and some old friends
