Supernatural script sides for episode 4x08
See, I knew I shouldn't have turned the computer off when I did last night, 'cause about ten minutes later the sides for 4x08 were posted. :-) Got to read them this morning...
Ok, so the title of this one is Wishful Thinking and yep, it's the wishing well episode with the reported giant teddy bear we heard about in the various ComicCon interviews. :-) The bear doesn't actually make an appearance in the sides, but Dean does say that they're "teddy bear doctors" so it's a safe bet to say that Dean may finally get his revenge against that nasty Snuggle Bear. [snerk]
The sides are for Wes and Hope, who are getting ready to be married. It's easy to see right off the bat that Hope's relationship with Wes is a little...bizarre and not healthy. She's obsessively in love with him and you can tell that it kinda freaks Wes out. It's easy to figure out that Wes made a wish that Hope would fall in love with him, but things aren't turning out quite like he'd expected.
Enter Sam and Dean, who are pretending to be florists for the wedding. [snerk]
While Hope is out of the room, Sam and Dean confront Wes, telling him they know what he did and Wes spills the beans.
He tells the boys that his grandfather found the coin in North Africa, in WW2 and brought it back with him. He told Wes that it was a real wish-granting coin, but no one should ever use it. His grandfather was all he had, and after he died he decided to try the coin.
Sam and Dean tell him that he needs to come with them (with the helpful prodding of Dean's gun) and that he's going to wish the coin back. Wes wants to know why that his wish coming true is a bad thing.
The boys tell him that it didn't just work for him, but it works for everyone in the town and that's why everyone's going a bit insane - the coin is cursed and "the wishes go south. All of them."
Dean asks Wes if he thinks that his relationship with Hope is functional, if that's really what he wished for. Wes says that he wished that she'd love him more than anything. Sam asks if that's healthy and Wes said it's a hell of a lot better than when she didn't know he was alive.
The pages skip around some, so I don't know where this part falls in, but it seems to be after Sam and Dean ask Wes to go with him.
Wes and Hope are back at the restaurant where Wes put the coin in the fountain, and he finds out that Hope wished a man dead (why, we don't know). Wes realizes this has to stop, even if it means losing Hope, so he kisses her one last time, then reaches in and removes the coin from the fountain.
He looks at Hope and feels like he's waking from a dream. He says her name and she looks at him and says, "Do I know you...?"
And that's where the pages end.
I'm not going OMG over this one, (at least yet) because just from the pages here it seems like a pretty slow paced episode. I'm intrigued as to what the other people in the town wished for, though and how they're gonna make a giant teddy bear not a "jump the shark" moment. :-)
Your thoughts, guys?
