EDLUND WHY
Want to get this out of me before I go reading other people's reactions and get my own mind messed up.
So, that episode......yeah.....WTF EDLUND?!
But I'm cool with this, because unlike last week, I was actually able to objectively look at this episode while watching it and look at my dreams for reference.
The past two journal entries relayed this info so I'm not going to recap here. But my first prophetic SPN dream was definitely related to the premiere, as I covered last time. Now we're on to my 2nd prophetic dream.
I think, based on this episode, this is what my 2nd dream meant when Cas suddenly disappeared. I panicked in my dream, which is definitely what the fandom is doing and it's kind of what the other characters are doing too though more about the Leviathans. But panic is still panic.
And in my dream, though I did not actually SEE him come back, the panic suddenly left which I can only assume is because Cas came back in my dream.
So he has disappeared now. Now we just wait for him to come back, with some panic in between.
I should also note that I think Levi (or as of this episode, Boss!Levi) is still in Cas. I was writing a one shot I didn't get to finish in time for this episode, but I had the other Leviathans refer to him as "Boss". That was just a guess, though.
From what I can tell from these two episodes, the Leviathans seem to have a similar family dynamic that a gang has. The whole "you mess with one, you mess with us all" sort of thing. And all of them answer to Levi and follow his orders and shit, which makes Levi the equivalent to the leader of a gang. I imagine that they each have access to their host's memories and things, because the Doc!Levi said that he knew who Bobby was cuz "they saw him through the angel's eyes". I take this to mean that ALL of them know the Winchesters now because at that point it was not just one Leviathan in Cas, it was ALL OF THEM. So they all had access to what Cas knew and that carried over to when Levi sent them into the water.
So now it's probably "as it should be" which is Levi in Cas' body and the rest in their own bodies but still answering to Levi. Levi still being in Cas' body makes sense if we consider Levi as the strongest one, which was why even though there were countless numbers of them in Cas originally, he was still the dominant one talking. It seems to me like the reason they all need their own bodies is because too many of them in one causes too much strain on the vessel. Which was part of the reason why Levi went and contaminated the water with the rest of them.
His agenda was to get them out so they could go feed (because as some of them said, they were hungry) and not make his vessel explode. It makes sense that Levi would remain in Cas because Jimmy's body was strong enough to be an angel's vessel, thereby making it strong enough for Levi, but ONLY Levi. Not Levi + a hundred other Leviathans, as that first scene clearly showed.
And I believe Cas is still in there. It's just Levi that's left in there with him. We'll see him again. Right now he's playing the role of "Off screen shadow boss" where everyone refers to him but he isn't actually seen. But we will see him again. Watch it be in episode 7 (which BTW is November 4th which is conveniently the same day that the timer on the GISHWHES site ends).
Also, I still believe that those leaked script photos from July are legit. They weren't for episode 2, though. They were for some other episode. Another episode involving Cas, and I went back after the premiere and re-read what I could read of the dialogue and I found that the interaction between Dean and Cas in that script sounds suspiciously like Levi using Cas' memories, thoughts and feelings to fuck with Dean's head.
I really don't know what episode number it was supposed to be, but clearly it was neither 1 or 2. hitzusin and I believe it might be episode 5. It might also be 7. All we can tell is that it's a single digit number we just don't know which one. This is also the script with the love confession.
So in summary, I wouldn't worry too much. My 2nd dream is on the last part, but it will not have come to fruition until Cas returns and the panic goes away. So keep holding on, fandom.
Also, it took me a bit, but I'm 100% certain that all the Leviathans in this episode were different ones from Levi. For a bit I thought Levi might be in the girl and then the doctor, but that is not Levi. Levi, based on what I have seen, laughs a lot, grins a lot and is all around commanding in how he talks. Which is part of why I believe he's still in Cas because NONE OF THESE GUYS WERE LEVI.
So since they are all different and don't really have names, I gave them names:
Doc!Levi
Ed!Levi
Female!Levi
Old!Levi
And as I mentioned, the one I affectionately call Levi is Boss!Levi. But that one will always be Levi to me.
