Commence with the flaily hands.
May. 11th, 2007 04:28 pmOkay, I've got a half an hour before I have to go to work so let's see if I can manage a coherent thought between now and then.
-- I don't believe for a minute that Sam is the Demon's favorite. I think that above else is the biggest lie the Demon told Sam. I believe that Ava probably heard the same thing from the Demon.
Having said that, I believe that the vision that Sam was shown of his mother recognizing the Demon wasn't an illusion as some people have said, but I really do not get the demon blood thing at ALL. I keep trying to get a grasp on how a couple of drops of the Demon's blood would affect Sam at all, much less for the rest of his life, and I'm boggled. But, you know, in a good way.
-- The Demon only needing one soldier scares the crap out of me, and you know why?
Because I'm terrified he means Dean.
I mean, forget Sam. Look at what the Demon's actions have done to Dean. Taken his mother, broken up his family, taken away his normal life, turned him over the years into a well-honed killing machine (albeit for good), broken the heart of the most important person in his life, told him he's worthless, killed his father, and now it's taken Sam. I know the Demon's focus has been on Sam but Dean has already said he'd charge into Hell for his family and I'm starting to worry a lot about where that's going.
(Granted, I have no idea how to jive that with Ava being a part of this Cold Oak thing for five months now. Seriously, y'all, fuck Sam and Dean, the Demon is trying to kill ME.)
-- Which leads me to another point. The Demon -- one out of many, I imagine -- organizes this thing in Cold Oak for the past half a year and yet demonic activity has, according to Bobby, ceased for only a month now? I mean, I could get it if it had died down since the festivities started because he'd been organizing others to help out, but with that big lag between the beginning of the game and the dying down of demonic activity I just don't even know.
GOD, SHOW. *headdesk*
-- I had the passing thought that the Demon doesn't want them to live not because he wants the one left alive but because he wants the souls of the ones who crack and murder the others to try and get out.
-- OH, GOD, I DON'T EVEN KNOW. MY BRAIN IS BROKEN. HOW AM I GOING TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE WITH MY BRAIN BROKEN?
-- I don't get what blowing up the roadhouse accomplished other than killing Ash and destroying the hunters' home base of sorts. I mean, okay, yes, home base, but ... I don't know. There is obviously more to the story and if Ellen isn't dead at the roadhouse she's out there somewhere (soap opera dead body logic FTW!), but ... but ... ARGH.
-- I can't even write fic for this! *sobs* I mean, yes, I can, but I can't because I don't have all the answers yet and I don't want to get Jossed six days after writing a damn fic and my brain is going to be frozen on that shot of Sam in Dean's arms for DAYS. (That was the one major reason I was thinking of waiting to watch this episode until right before next week's episode. I spoiled myself on the cliffhanger and in my head that world stays in the moment a cliffhanger ends at until it starts back up again in the next new episode so Dean will be holding dead!Sammy in his arms and crying for the next six days. THANKS A LOT, BRAIN.)
-- Boy, am I glad I'm a spoiler whore because some people just do NOT know when they've inserted their foot squarely into their mouths.
-- Okay, I know I'm a little "It's really about Dean!" sometimes, but something that seems weird to me is that we have Andy whose adoptive mother burned with Sam whose biological mom burned, and Mary appears to have known the Demon. I want to doubt Andy's adoptive mom knew the Demon, but Monica -- Rose's mom from last year's finale -- also appeared to know the Demon. (I've wondered since the beginning of the season why they never went back to question Monica about if she knew anything, but with the Colt and John dying and everything they have a good enough reason for her slipping their minds, I guess.) The point being, was it only the moms who knew the Demon who burned, or just the ones who interrupted him? And if they interrupted him, is that why those particular kids are more ... well, good, I guess? Or at least trying to be good people but being broken by events around them?
-- DUDE I DON'T EVEN KNOW. BRAIN NO WORKY.
Okay, now I have to go to work.
