8.21 " The Great Escapist"

Sorry this is uuuuuubbber late. I had so much to do. Okay so I thought this episode was pretty good.

So as it turns out, Kevin did get taken by Crowley. Or at least I think he did. I'm still a bit fuzzy on that. I could tell from the start that it wasn't the real Dean and Sam when they came in, it just didn't make sense. Sam looked too healthy, he was saying too many strange Dean-like quips, and they were both too happy. I thought maybe they were Leviathan or demons. But then that rose the question as to why they weren't affected by the holy water. Well, if anyone's wondering, I'm pretty sure Crowley replaced it with regular water.

The scene where Sam and Dean find Kevin's message was pretty deep. It was actually cool to see that the boys have such an emotional connection to Kevin, rather than just an obligation to keep him alive for the sake of their mission. And something that Dean said makes me wonder: why didn't they take Kevin to the batcave.

I like the fact that they went more into Cas's story line in previous centuries, saying that he never completely did what he was told. It makes me wonder if this was the first time he has fully commited himself to helping humans, or a select few. Judging from the way he behaved in the beginning of season 4, I think it may be the first time he has befriended humans at least. But it is possible that this could have happened previously and angels like Naomi made him forget. Speaking of Naomi, the way she finally caught Castiel was just cruel, and it brings us right back to the "angels are dicks" scenario. In a way, angels are worse than demons in this show. At least the demons have a reason to be douchebags; they've been burnin in hell for half an eternity. Angels have no excuse.

I'm gettin really excited about the new weapon choices this season. First Dean's cool machete thing in Purgatory, then the devil's trap carved into the bullet, then the angel blade melted into bullets. It makes me wonder why they havn't come up with these things sooner. Remember the days when angel blades only belonged to angels? Now every rancher and his duck has one of those puppies. Are angels really that easy to kill?

Metatron was kind of a dumbass I'm not gonna lie. He was just sitting around for ceeenttturrieesss reading friggin Jane Eyre and he didn't even bother to look and check the current events. Sam and Dean had a right to be pissed. He missed the freaking apocolypse. I mean that's really effed up.

That's all I got for this week. I probably had more but I can't remember. See ya in a bit.
