*satisfied sigh*
Our show is so good, people. I mean, this went much differently than I expected (yes, the promos fooled me!) and I thought I was going to be a WEEPING MESS when this was over, but instead I was laughing because, oh DEAN! "You had a girl inside you for a week." Seriously. Oh, Dean. He knows exactly how to take his brother's mind off things.
First of all, two things that show what a huge dork I am about this show. Firstly, did anyone else notice that Bobby's lines in the previouslies were different takes than the ones actually in the episodes? His voice is different, the cadence and volume. And secondly, they reused the shot of the Impala driving towards Nazareth from Phantom Traveller! They just changed the town name on the sign. Oh budget show, NEVER CHANGE. *loves and loves*
And on to the actual episode. I really loved how the beginning was edited, with the jerky cuts illustrating Dean's panic. And Dean basically *groping* Sam as he looked at the blood, hee. He didn't remove his hands for quite a while!
The scene where Sam was trying to get Dean to shoot him was so intense. I just - God, DEAN. He has such complete and utter faith in Sam, and also in his ability to save Sam, simply because he has to. There is no alternative. "I'd rather die." And how his voice falls into a whisper on "I've tried so hard to keep you safe." It KILLS me how much Dean NEEDS Sam. He's compromising so much to keep him alive - other people's safety, his own morals, his promise to John... the lengths he will go to for Sam continually astound and amaze me. When it comes to Sam, there aren't any rules for Dean. Everything flies out the window except keep Sam alive. And that just... yeah. *flails with love*
But just one thing - FUCKING HUG HIM ALREADY!!!! *facepalm*
I loved how they brought in old characters. I think Jo's role was great - she was the victim, but she wasn't damselly. She's still crushing on Dean, but she's not deluding herself about it. She seemed much older in this episode, and I'm glad for that. I certainly don't mind her being an occasional returning character. And I love that she can pull a bullet out of a guy's shoulder and not flinch. Girlpower ftw!
And BOBBY! Oh how I love Bobby. "Don't try to con a conman." YES!! *pumps fist* He is MADE of awesomesauce. He can totally stay :D
I loved Dean pretending Sam was his SON, hee. And "Yes, Justin is quite a triple threat." HEEEEEE. I love a lot.
Does Dean keep hundreds of dollars on him solely for bribery? He shells that shit out like candy!
"Are you that scared of being alone, that you'd rather let Jo DIE?" In a word: yes. Like I said, compromising everything else. It does come down to that. Dean can't face life alone. *squeaks*
The only thing I'm going to say about the Sam-attacks-Jo scene is that Sam's hand is about eight times the size of Jo's. Jesus, he's a beast! A really hot, graceful, gorgeous beast, but SO FUCKING HUGE! *hands*
Nnnnnngh Sam with demon-eyes is RIDICULOUSLY HOT. And the skewed hair and Dean calling him a sonofabitch. Why yes my panties DID just explode, why do you ask? And the reason this "review" is getting more random is because I'm rewatching right now, haha. Sorry!
DEWY SENSITIVE EYES!!! *Dies and dies and dies* First the droopy music, now this! Oh SHOW. And the boys stalking each other in a cluttered warehouse is fucking hotass, yo. Mmmph.
"Shoulda known you wouldn't have the sack." *dies* What kind of line is THAT? hahaha. And basically, this is the ONLY thing Dean doesn't have "the sack" for. Killing Sammy is on his complete taboo list.
Okay I really can't rewatch the whole thing right now. I have things to do, so to conclude with a few more things. The demon said John is in hell again! Oh dear :( That's definitely coming back later, I can tell. And wow, the demon was MEG! I didn't see that coming, and that is just SO awesome. And now she's out and about, so she'll be back too, in one way or another! I liked the bit about the demon locking itself in Sam's body with that sigil, very cool new piece of mythology. But god, Sam beating Dean into a bloody pulp was so so hurtyand so so hot. Dean punching him after the demon was gone made me facepalm, but it made sense, lol. It's the Winchester way of expressing affection! :P (But that's two times Dean has punched Sam now - when're you gonna cash that raincheck, Sammyboy?) But both of the boys flinging punches is really, ridiculously hot.
Oh god! I just fast forwarded some, and I missed this line of the demon's on the first time around: "They would have been better off without you." OW OW OW OW OW!!!! So wrong, but OWWWW! *whimpers* STUPID DEMONS MESSING WITH DEAN'S HEAD!! *stabs*
*flaps* "That'll stop it from getting back up in ya." "That sounds vaguely dirty, but thanks." And Sammy SMIRKS! Because he knows just what's gonna get up in Dean! *giggles*
The final scene in the car was lovely. Dean's genuine open concern for Sam, and trying to alleviate the tension at the same time. "Now if it's the last thing I do, I'm gonna save you." YES. Yes that exactly. *meeps into hands* And then of course the girl inside you line. OH DEAN.
In conclusion, I love our boys sooooooooooo much. *smishes them to chest*
Hey, I just realized that "Paranormal" is the category TiVo puts Supernatural under. I didn't even know that was a category. Very cool! I've always just lumped our show with "genre" stuff, you know, scifi/fantasy. But paranormal is an excellent category, and I think I will use it from now on! ^_^
Now I have to get to packing and getting ready for my weekend trip to Boston! I'm going with my Oxfam club (aka all my best friends, plus some other people, hee) to a Hunger and Homelessness Conference. It's gonna be a crazy weekend, with all the driving and the squishing a lot of people into a tiny apartment and the no sleep and etcetc, but it will be so much fun. I probably won't be posting again before I leave, so this is my farewell! I won't be catching up on my flist when I get back (it'll be like, skip 600) so if anything huge happens, drop me a note, maybe? Much love to you all! *hugs*
