apocalypsosAw, just once, can't you go to Scranton? Erie, Philly, Bethlehem ... Come on.
Maybe it just comes from watching too many episodes of Trauma: Life In The ER, but I have a really hard time believing any injury could be bad enough to make a doctor scream like that.
"Squirt your holy water in both ends?" *chokesplorfles*
Sam's looking particularly cute tonight. And okay, desperate, but also very cute.
"You done?"
"Think so."
"Please go away."
"Gotcha." -- *snickers*
BLARGH. GYAH. PLEASE NEVER TO BE SAYING MAGGOTS AGAIN, ACK ACK ACK. (Yes, I know they're going to show them later but EW EW EW EW.)
HA! Sam purposely grossing out Dean is killing me. Just ... the look on his face ... bwahahahaha!
Dean: "Baby, I can't stay mad at you."
Me: *brain short-circuits*
EW. MAGGOTS AND HEART AND THAT SQUISHY-SNAPPY SOUND FROM CRACKING THE STERNUM. EWWWWW.
Heh. Not the Christmas card type? Johnny Walker Blue? Who are they going to see, a new hunter or John?
Aw, poor desperate Sammy.
ARGH. I swear, those boys are going to be the fucking death of me.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! It's the boss from 21 Jump Street! Oh, please be a new recurring character! Please?
"I've got this bottle of scotch and ... I don't know, is this considered good?" HEE!
No, seriously, can Rufus be a new recurring character? I like him.
That file better be fucking interesting, yo.
Please don't get caught, Sammy. Oh, please tell me that at least some of the sharp angry kickass Sammy from all those Tuesdays and Wednesdays is still there.
EW EW MAGGOTS EW. *cringes*
Okay, you know how when I saw the Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, I couldn't get the song "Bits and Pieces" out of my head? Guess what's stuck there again? *headsmack*
Okay, that neck thing was really fucking gross.
... oh, goody, sexual molestation. This is her backstory? I hate this. Especially in the same episode with a woman trapped in a basement, especially after reading a week's worth of articles about the fucking sicko in Austria. BAD TIMING. Wait, so the hell does she have to steal if she's so goddamn rich? You know, before that damn scene I liked Bela. I didn't like what they were doing with her, but I liked her. Congratulations, show! You just made me do a complete one-eighty on a character I had until now not hated!
If this were any other show, or any other episode, I'd be making Death Becomes Her jokes.
Oh, Sammy, no. NOT THIS. This is not an attractive way to go through life. And I mean that physically, mentally, and emotionally.
See, I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate this. Dean's right, she should have just TOLD THEM. She could have told them about the deal, she could have told them about her past, she could have told them everything, and she didn't, and if I hate it when characters do this in books I sure as hell hate it in my favorite show. I just ... I haaaaaate this. HAAAATE. It doesn't make me feel sorry for her, it doesn't make me want to give her a hug or whatever it is I feel like it was supposed to draw out of me. I keep thinking of the characters who also dealt with the crossroads demon ... Robert Johnson, the professor, the man with the wife, Dean. They've all done or did something good with their lives before they got taken. What has Bela done with her ten years?
I know this didn't come after all of the complaints about misogyny, but seriously. SERIOUSLY.
DO NOT WANT.

Re: yeah...
Date: 2008-05-09 02:23 am (UTC)You know, I might have liked the backstory if she had taken the opportunity -- and she had several of them, God knows -- to tell them. Okay, fine, she's not a warrior. But the Winchesters are, they have the Colt, and they have a reason to go after Lilith, too. If she had just showed up one day and said, "I will pay you to get rid of her, here is what I know, there is what you know, now go get 'em, tiger!", she could have spent the entire season toying with them, being all playful, being smart, and STILL have worked towards defeating Lilith.
All of the things she's done this season -- ALL of them -- have been detrimental to her goal, if her goal is to destroy Lilith and get out of her deal. She's got resources and information the Winchesters don't but the same goal in the end. Everything she's done up until this point now makes her look stupid. I think that's why I hate it -- because while I didn't like what they were doing with her before this episode, I didn't think she was functionally retarded.
On the plus side, I knew Dean was going to do something to screw her out of the show, but I was afraid it was going to make him look bad. Guess I didn't have to worry about that. *headdesk*
Re: yeah...
Date: 2008-05-09 02:32 am (UTC)well...and damn it... that preview...i'm still in shock here...damn it...i mean...its what i expected, feared, dreaded, but...to show that? SHOW that? there's gotta be a catch, a trick..something... gotta be ...gotta..
this episode...its like..dean draws the line here...he'd rather go to hell and suffer eternal torment and at least get a chance to try to fight off becoming a demon, than become a living monster of his own free will...or let sam die...
dean...
oh dean...
i wanna cry...
Re: yeah...
Date: 2008-05-09 02:36 am (UTC)What am I thinking, though? Oh, I'm sorry, was I thinking? Yeah, I have a problem with that sometimes.
