First thoughts on 5.19 "Hammer of the Gods"
Hey,
Another week, another wonderful episode.
It's gonna be so hard when they gonna be off for months! Thank god for DVDs and repeats! And, even better, they're coming back, yahoo!
Okay back to tonight's episode, hope you enjoy my review and let me know your thoughts.
Until next time,
alwaysateen :)
Ok, so maybe I’m gonna sell a big punch from the beginning but I adore episodes with the Trickster in it! Even now that we know he’s really the archangel Gabriel, I still love his unique sense of humour! I didn’t remember the official description and didn’t catch on the title either, I was too happy when I saw the Trickster in the promo pics!
So the boys get caught in a mega storm and have to take refuge in a motel that just comes back from the dead, literally. It was a dump, abandon ages ago and then in perfect order and a four stars on top of that. Sam, as always, is suspicious when they find a four stars motel in a detour on the highway. Dean wants his brother to rest and ask him to enjoy their night off. When the energetic couple in the room next door mysteriously disappeared after nearing bring the wall down, the boys’ starts a little investigation. Obviously Dean, you sadly can’t have a night off. They quickly discover that they are surrounded by Gods who are really mad that the angels decided to take their personal battles on Earth. They want the planet back and the brothers are their bargaining chips.
Then comes Gabriel, oh sorry the Trickster, who suddenly wants to rescue the brothers. Maybe his last conversation with Dean did have the desired effect… I loved it when Dean took control, even managed to convince Gabriel to get into his plan and not let him run the show like he usually does. It was a really risky plan that almost turned on them but it was a really good one.
I won’t say too much but let just say that I’m hoping that a certain character has nine lives like a cat… I really doubt it this time around but we never know.
The last scene was the most disgusting one yet and introduced a new character: the pestilence horseman. I love Matt but yerk.
