Why does gulp-sass install fail?

Question

Sass

I'm trying to install the gulp assembly on my disk, I cloned it from the repository, I run npm install, and it gives an error: "C:\Program Files\Sublime Text 3\sublime_text.exe. - Unexpected token P". Sublime Text is the default editor. The user variable EDITOR contains the path that is specified in the error text. How can this be fixed and why does the node swear on the path?
