Mother of All
OMG, EVE! OF COURSE! I CANNOT BELIEVE I DIDN'T MAKE THAT CONNECTION. I'm doing a bible study with three other women. We just read the first three chapters of Genesis where Adam gives Eve her name which means 'life' because she's "the mother of all things." OMG, I seriously cannot believe I didn't think of that. I seriously slapped my forehead. And I would have thought that Bobby would have thought of it.
Rest in peace
Did the network give Supernatural a budget cut or something? Gwen, Samuel, and Rufus. Three recurring guest stars dead in one episode with a half-mediocre plot. Gwen, I didn't know her that well. I was shocked when Dean killed her. I knew it wasn't Dean when he did it. Samuel, he was a total jackass. I won't miss him. My dad was watching the episode with me and he asked me why they hate their grandfather so much. So I gave him the short version since he's Dad and freaked out when I told him about the Horcruxes in Harry Potter, so I figured the less he knows the better. So I just said, "Well, he used them as bait and... he's just not a very good guy." Has it been confirmed if he has his soul or not? If so, I missed it. I really don't think he had his soul. I mean, if Crowley raised Sam without his soul why would he be less lazy with Samuel?
Anyway, on to Rufus. I was so mad! I found him hilarious and really enjoyed his company whenever he was on the show, especially when he saw a lot more of him in Weekend at Bobby's. I loved the companionship between Rufus and Bobby. They really reminded me of an older Sam and Dean, like this is what Sam and Dean are going to be like in 20+ years.
I really liked that they gave us some backstory with Bobby and Rufus, how they met and whatnot, and how they gave us a part of that Omaha but not the whole thing. And I'm so glad Dean said all those things at Rufus' burial.
Okay, now I'm jumping ahead. Bobby! I was so scared for Bobby. I just had this bad feeling during the whole episode that Bobby's fate may not have been good and I am always thinking back to the con when Jim said he is always worried about his fate on the show. Even he doesn't know if he'll survive the whole series. So I'm always nervous for him, especially in this episode when the creature could be in anyone and kill anyone. No one was safe. My dad saw me chewing on the corner of the throw pillow I was clutching to my chest and asked me if I wanted popcorn. I just shook my head and mumbled, "I'm good, thanks."
When they taped up Bobby's mouth and ears, I was seriously screaming at the TV. "No, no, no, no, NOT BOBBY!" Then when the goo was seeping from him and he was unconscious, I was so scared and was going to start crying once the shock abated. At the burial, when it was just showing Sam and Dean, I was holding my breath. The first thing I noticed was it wasn't their style. With their dad and Adam, they just wrapped up the body and burned it. I wasn't breathing and rocking back and forth waiting for them to give us a clue.
THEN BOBBY APPEARED AND I WAS SO HAPPY! I WAS SCREAMING, "YES, YES, BOBBY!" :D

LOL at Sam speaking my thoughts: "Why do you keep talking about herpes?"
APRIL 15? NO SUPERNATURAL FOR A MONTH? WHY DO THEY KEEP DOING THIS TO US? THEY GIVE US A HUGE BREAK, GIVE US FOUR EPISODES, THEN ANOTHER BREAK! WHAT'S THE DEAL? *RAWR* AT CW!
I cannot believe this is my first time using an 'episode review' tag. :/
