"D.C. Confidential" (D.C.コンフィデンシャル, Dī Shī Konfidensharu) is the twenty-fifth episode of season 1 and the twenty-fifth overall episode of Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt. It first aired on December 17, 2010.
Synopsis[]
Scanty and Kneesocks report the results of their unsuccessful battles with Panty and Stocking, as well as the whereabouts of the blood kin of Hell's Monkey, to Corset, the mayor of Daten City.
Plot[]
Fastener turning on the TV as Scanty and Kneesocks give their report.
The episode starts with Corset, who explains that the primordial chaos of Daten City had been sealed long ago. He also explains he needs Hell's Monkey's blood kin in order to undo the seal guarding The Other Gods. Scanty and Kneesocks inquire if something is bothering him, but Corset asks them to continue delivering their report. The demon sisters proceed to describe each of the ghosts they had released so far, starting from Giant Brown, number 36. Corset interrupts them, asking how could they place their hopes on feces, but tells them to continue anyway.
The demon sisters then describe Crazy Crazzy Gabby, but once again, Corset says that there had been a remarkable absence of intelligence in that plot. After Queen Bee's description, Corset lectures Scanty and Kneesocks, saying there was a clear absence of any attempt to use whips and chains, which obviously led to their defeat. Corset suddenly pauses the video during Stocking's attempt to free herself from a rope, during "Catfight Club", because of his love for BDSM.

After reporting all of the ghosts, Corset scolds the demon sisters, saying they had only produced a crop of utterly worthless ghosts, assuring ghosts used to be stronger back in the day. He also tells them to stop wasting his time and stops the video shortly after leaving. Scanty orders Fastener to bring the sofa and wine, and then proceeds to have sex with Kneesocks. The corset comes back and interrupts them, asking if they had at least found the blood kin of Hell's Monkey. Since the demon sisters had no information, Corset was displeased and sent them away. In the end, while watching the video, Corset noticed Brief in the video, assuring hope could still be found in the midst of despair.

Trivia[]
General trivia[]
- This episode implies that the series takes place in 2010, the same year that the series premiered.
- When Corset ruins the tape of Stocking getting entangled by replaying it too much, a scene in "Once Upon a Time in Garterbelt" in which Garterbelt gets strangled by Chuck can be briefly seen before the TV turns off.
- This episode is a giant fourth wall break, as it acts as a recap episode of the series up to that point.
- It uses clips of every episode of the series up to this point except "Ghost: The Phantom of Daten City" and "Nothing to Room".
Cultural references[]
- The episode's title is a reference to the American film, L.A. Confidential.
- Scanty and Kneesocks giving a report to Corset may be a reference to the 1995 anime, Neon Genesis Evangelion; more specifically, the fourteenth episode of the series, in which the Angels' names are revealed during a report.
