Is love in the air for the Woodstone Mansion’s resident cynic? This Thursday’s episode of “Ghosts,” titled “His Girl Shiki,” sees Pete, the ever-earnest scout leader ghost, take on a new role: matchmaker. And his target? None other than Sasappis, the sarcastic Lenape ghost who’s usually more focused on his historical grudges than matters of the heart.
Pete, bless his spectral heart, believes he’s found the perfect match for Sasappis: a wisecracking screenwriter from the 1940s. What makes her especially suitable? She’s a roamer, just like Pete, meaning she isn’t tethered to the place of her death and can move freely about. This shared ability could be a significant point of connection for the two ghosts, potentially opening up new avenues for interaction and storylines.
Whether Sasappis will appreciate Pete’s meddling remains to be seen. The pairing of the sardonic Sasappis with a quick-witted screenwriter has the makings of comedic gold, and it will be fascinating to see how their personalities clash or complement each other. This episode could reveal new depths to Sasappis, a character who often hides his vulnerability behind a wall of sarcasm. Tune in to CBS this Thursday at 8:30 PM EST to see if love blossoms in the afterlife. This episode will be available for streaming on Paramount+ for Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscribers live and on demand, or on demand for Paramount+ Essential subscribers the day after the episode airs.
