3x12
I saved myself for marriage, and all I got was this crappy apocalypse.
I do love Ruby's gore talk ("I'm sorry, I must have blood in my ear"). Lol, demons. Actually, the more this unfolds, the more Ruby is growing on me. Not to mention that outfit - I want it, it's so up my alley, ya'll. She does seem a tad more human than the other demons, as in her maliciousness comes across more sane rather than stone crazy fruit loops (Meg). Also, we need her for the boys to be kept in the loop, otherwise the demon war would play out like a mindless kill-the-wendigo monster fight instead of a real war with tactics going both ways. I'm surprised, because I really thought Bella would be my favorite, being penned by Edlund and all. Guess SPN works better when they keep it simple, no Krycek-esque characters would fly here.
Fuck, but what's this thing with virgin = virtue? I'll grant there's a higher probability of virtuousness in the virgin pool, but hardly enough to be significant relative to uh, popped ones. I know, it's all history. But fyi, the Bible/Torah/ton o' religions doesn't even measure righteousness by a sex stick alone, although maybe life would be easier if it did, hey, all you have to do is not have sex to be perfect, yaaay! Yah, I'm drinking and am thiclose to calling my bff @ seminary, this review is going off the tracks...I told Val today I'm shunning boys and spending the rest of my days as a nun. She said I would be a repressed but awesome nun. Lol, fair enough.
Back to Ruby: "I was gonna kill myself to help you win..."
Does this mean that if they had cut Nancy's heart out, they would have won the war? If so, bad move, Dean. Even if it didn't guarantee a war win, I don't think Ruby would kill herself to win a small battle. That must have been a significant make-or-break battle, by her estimate.
As for Lillith - I really, really hope she doesn't stick with the little girl form. I hope she was a little girl in that scene just because she knew it would be a form most appealing to Nancy, and that she changes appearance depending on what is most efficient.
ETA: As dahliablue/anteka mentioned, this ep is grievously lacking the classic rock. Not cool, Kripke. You could of at least played the opening chords to Rush's "Working Man" when the fight started. Don't forsake your roots, man. :(
This was an action!episode, and thank God, because we are loooong overdue for one. Even though it hardly matched the nuanced & charming (in a dark way) caliber of Nighshifter, I am not complaining. I'm glad they finally got around to balancing the season with more gun action, and hope they'll continue evening out the scale with it. Just..squeeze in some slow, suspenseful mindfucks, Kripke, and I will love you forver. XD
- Uh oh, jittery cam action, fast cutting, swooshy panning. Kripke iz really serious about teh ~~~intensity~~~ this week.
- I have had a longstanding debate with myself about whether bald men can be sexy. Never considered Skinner sexy. And Bruce Willis wasn't completely bald back in the day, and now that he is...pass. But Hendrickson seems to break the mold. I don't know what's different from Nightshifter, but this time around, not bad at all.
- I don't buy that footchain tripfest. They're hunters, John didn't raise no clutzy boys!
- Aarghh, those FBI jackets, the badges...it makes me so nostalgic for XF. *dorks out* Hey Hendrickson, call the basement office!!
- Yeah Lennertz, where you been all season, man. I was just about to petition that they fire you.
- Shit, the deputy director seems to be channeling Brad Follmer!
- lol @ Dean yelling about can he has a cheeseburger.
- I agree with Dean's "because we're so awesome" reasoning. To have your enemies hate you that much is a big compliment.
- Have some chocolate, Hendrickson, that's how you recover from a dementor attack.
- Sam: *spray paints floor* Me: WE LOST NINE MINUTES, SCULLY.
- Yeah, I know he looks hot, Nancy. But he's like a piece of candy on the sidewalk, you don't know where its been, trust us.
- Dean: *dramatically pauses whilst outside unloading trunk* Oh for God's sake Dean, MOVE, you've seen that shit a million times before. Go, go go!
- Dudes, those are some fugly tattoos. Ten bucks says they were drunk and were like, "..aa..aand teh demonz...PERMANENT, you awesome sonofa...owww..." Yeah, I think they've been hunting so long that they can get away with doing a few important things really cavalierly.
- Ruby: "Anyone have a breath mint? Some guts splattered in my mouth as I was killing on my way in here." ahaha, Kripke I see what you did there. Best line in ep! XD
- Dean: NOBODY's a virgin!
Nancy: *tries to look inconspicuous* LOLOL, oh Nancy you suck just as much as Dean at acting. - I can picture Dean, even if he did agree to kill Nancy, putting down the knife at the last second and offer her a lay, being a gentleman in his own mind, lol.
- Okay, this whole demons running into the buildings and shooting them down looks like a video game.
- The speaker exorcism, though, A+.
- Poor Nancy. But still, I can't decide whether dying a virgin is horrible or not. One one hand, hell yeah what a wasted opportunity, but on the other hand, it's a pretty romantic way to go.
