“DaVinci’s Demons”: An In-Depth Analysis of the Finale
Y’all know the drill, history is a lie. If that’s true, then we might as well make it an interesting lie. With that in mind, here’s a focused and unwavering recap of “The Lovers”.

“Nunsploitation? Nunsploitation. Hey everyone, we got some nunsploitation over here!”
Brace yourself for scandalous sisterly impropriety. “The Prisoner” centers around a convent whose nuns catch a crazy case of the vapors, and it’s DaVinci’s Demons best episode yet. Leonardo’s “ADD genius didn’t take his Adderall” shtick comes across brilliantly, and there’s enough subterfuge to tickle everyone’s inner Machiavelli.
