And somebody I know knocked the review out of the country! I have been crushing on all the love for this episode hard because I loved it so much. The "...be my brother again" conversation was incredible, so nuanced, and I've been hearing in my head ever since all the things Sam didn't say (huge kudos to JaredSeraKim for that bit of perfection), but it was the ending scene that actually brought me to tears. It was so incredibly subtle and so full. Sterling Brown was brilliant. You have to admire his passionate conviction, even if it was twisted and misplaced. But his downfall, being turned, was poetic justice if there ever was such a thing. I'm actually sort of relieved there will be no new episode this week, as I would have to tape it and it makes me ridiculously nervous not to be watching at the same time (ahh, obsession). I also hope the strike will soon come to an end, with the writers getting the best end of the deal, so we will have more of this incredible season to enjoy. (I may be kidding myself, but I cannot help but believe that the strong support shown be the consumers/fans is making a difference. You gotta love the internet for its role in bringing people together in common cause on things we largely felt impotent about in the past.) Anyway, if I may be permitted a squee moment--Jensen, Jared, Sera & Kim=FTW!

Thank you! Everything that was said without actually being spoken aloud had me in awe of the boys, Sera, and Kim. Major wows.

I really do hope that the viewer support for the writers took the AMPTP by surprise and helped contribute to the decision to come back to the bargaining table earlier than had been rumored. And I hope that the news blackout that's been announced actually does help to keep the sniping and rhetoric down to a minimum, and the horsetrading at the table honest and aboveboard!
