13.08 Watch Notes

I have a whole bunch of work to do for finals this semester, so I held back on watching this episode first thing in the morning, and made myself do schoolwork—this is my reward!...Plus lunch. Let’s see how it goes. I’m hopeful, even after last week’s episode. I really love Glynn’s work. The way she writes the boys, but Dean especially, breaks my heart every time. :’( Here we go!

 THEN

We get the recap of Ketch’s line “Did it ever occur to you that I might be one of the good guys?” and then Dean’s line, “Not even once.” And considering recent events, we have to go with Dean. Right? Ketch is in cohoots with Moe, knows Moe is keeping Cas, and hell, probably had orchestrated Cas’s capture in some manner.

Ketch, I can’t wait to see you get shoot in the face. Again.

 Wow. Cambridge sure looks a lot like New York.

I’m no expert, but I think a museum would have a lot more security than just one door to secure all those artifacts. Why aren’t the cabinets locked? Why am I overthinking a framing device? Who knows!

Okay. So they’re running errands for Moe. So this guy definitely knows about Cas then, right?

Lol…the barber is called “Bangshop”. I love Jerry Wanek.

DAMN IT DEAN YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO EAT THE PIE. EATING THE PIE IS SEALING THE DEAL.

I love dorky Dean

Luther. Lucifer. Get it? GET IT? I get it. I got you, Meredith.

If Sam were a demon, he just would’ve totally walked himself into that devil’s trap without even realizing it.

Ah. Dean’s getting nostalgic. I never got into the energy drink thing. One too many horror stories of classmates getting sent to the ER and needing their stomachs pump…shit is like battery acid. Anyway, this lady is giving me major Charlie-vibes. Anyone else? It’s mostly the shoes.

I went to high school with a kid like the demon-guy. Dressed and talked just like him. Can’t wait for him to die. The demon—not my peer.

I’m noticing a pattern about people calling the brothers “stupid” or “smart.” Dean gets offended when Stunt Demon calls Sam stupid, but Sam doesn’t when Dean is called stupid. Hmm…..

The room is bobby-trapped! Dean, now is the time to break out all that Indiana Jones knowledge!

Bye Grab! You won’t be missed!

(Also, in Dean’s defense, he was totally right to be freaking out about the contraptions in the Dragon Mouth. For all he knew, his hand was about to get chopped off. I’d be freaking out too!)

Arsenic, holy water, holy oil. Only arsenic would hurt them, but even then, it takes a lot of arsenic to kill a full grown person.

Aw. Sammy has a crush on Catherine Zeta Jones.

“Sorry Charlie,” she says. Charlie parallel finished and done.

Damn it Dean stay to the right of the yellow line!

BTW—it’s only like half a second, but you can totally see the stunt driver for the red truck. Does Jensen do all the stunt driving himself? Gotta give him props. I know he’s been doing it forever, but I’d be really nervous driving like that in the Impala, even on a supervised set. It is a real 67 Impala, right? It’s worth a pretty penny.

Sam you’re just making that fire bigger.

So…does Alice have a copy of the spell? Or was all this really for naught?

I guess it wasn’t all for naught…they saved Alice, and I guess her soul too, right? Since Bart’s dead, there her deal can’t be collected. And Dean isn’t depressed anymore, and Sam even addressed it! So there’s that.

Glynn kept up with her great character writing. Definitely more enjoyable than last week’s episode; though I must admit I’m not much of a fan of the stand-alone episodes. Still great for what it was, though. Biggest complaint really is how they staggered the commercials. There wasn’t any for like the first ten or fifteen minutes, but then there was a bunch at the end, and it was just…commercial break, a one or two minute scene, and then another commercial. That got annoying. But that’s on production, not Glynn.

Final Score 7/10.

And now back to working on homework. Ugh….

Sam’s brain is the most wonderful place. He’s just like, “Well, this guy is immortal on his property and he’s set (otherwise) deadly traps in the area to make sure no one gets to his treasures, so we’ll just have him do the thing and we’ll reap the benefits, be able to find Jack, and this guy will survive anyway.” He minimized damage while still making sure they got what they wanted. How amazing is my smart, beautiful son?

Great Plains Bus Lines. They’re putting Alice on a bus.

I already had Charlie vibes from her.

Alice: “See you around.”

Dean: Hey Alice-- Stay weird.

Everyone watching Supernatural last night pinged Barthamus as a cheap imitation Crowley, but this season has been full of things that aren’t what they seem and empty spaces full of those we’ve lost.  We were meant to initially see good old Bart as “the next Crowley”, what with his monochromatic wardrobe and questionable allegiances.  Heck, he was even the new King of the Crossroads.  But for those of us who actually miss Crowley, it felt awful to imagine he might be replaced so easily with someone who turned out to be incapable of filling those expensive shoes.

Consider instead, Luther Shrike.  Made a deal, died, went to Hell, and came out more powerful than when he went in.  People said he was a monster, a murderer, as bad as any demon, but that was just one side of the story.  He was a collector of rare and valuable things, but none of those things could fill the hole in his heart.  He was lonely.

He sold his soul to save his son, who then ended up drowning anyway.  I know I’m not the only one who has questioned why the hell Crowley would have sold his soul for three extra inches of willy -- this entire post was spawned because of other people flailing in their liveblogging -- but it all makes sense if you assume he didn’t.  Since when has Crowley ever honestly admitted to caring for someone besides when he’s being snarky?  If he sold his soul to save Gavin from some illness, he’d never admit to it.  He’d much rather people thought he wanted a bigger John Thomas.  Love makes you weak and all that.  But then Gavin boarded a ship for the Americas and drowned when it sank.

So there we have it.  Luther Shrike, a man who lost his beloved son, became nearly immortal after going to Hell.  He lived a lonely life making deals for things that didn’t make him happy and then died, because in the end, his love made him do something reckless.

Look at how many people misjudged Shrike until the very end.  I think the person actually meant to be a Crowley mirror was no cheap imitation.

Ummm...guys? There's no dart-spitting mouth on the ceiling. You could literally crawl across the floor and be fine.

Someone has obviously never played video games...

I love how when heist demon talks about people who’ve been to Hell and back, Only Dean gets a flashback, and Sam just gets a half-second uncomfortable glance. I lied. I don’t love it at all.
