The Madao episode is one of the greatest in all of Gintama and since it's so self-contained, I use it to show newbies what Gintama is all about.

On another note, this is when Sougo first showed symptoms of having TB, as he randomly started coughing up blood and had to withdraw early in the incident

Infodump:
The Rokkaku incident that is referenced in 186-187 is based on the Ikedaya incident, in which the Shinsengumi stormed the Ikedaya inn on a tip that joi rebels were there to plan a major arson on the city of Kyoto. 8 joi and 1 shinsengumi were killed in the brawl. It should be noted that recently the case has been looked at with more scrutiny, as
A: warrants were not a thing at time so the Shinsengumi didn’t use one
B: The Shinsengumi learned of the plot only after Hijikata allegedly tortured a captured Joi for multiple hours.
