The Best Gargoyle episode in the entire show.

Warning: Spoilers
Remember when cartoons actually had plot and the balls to pull of those plots? This episode is a good way to feel nostalgic about those times.

Deadly Force follows 2 plots that come together at the end. In the first plot, Broadway is playing with6 Elisa's gun accidentally shoots her, and has to deal with the guilt and consequences afterward. While Broadway is away dealing with the guilt, the blame and suspicion falls on a crime lord that's selling guns on the street.

I remember this episode creating a lot of controversy. It never claims that Guns are horribly evil and no one should touch them, the episode DOES claim that guns are dangerous and should be treated with respect. I remember this episode being censored during reruns. Which is a shame because due to the message, it should've always been shown.

After all these years, it's still a tearjerker to see Elisa laying in a pool of her own blood (Something else that was censored when the episode WAS shown). It'd be nice to know if this episode ended up saving lives.
