Yesterday's episode
I have been waiting for 7 seasons now...
For Nick Lea to get a part on Supernatural. Last night, it finally happened, and what a part it was. I have been an avid fan of Nick Lea's since X-Files. I'm still an avid fan. To see him on the screen with Jensen was almost enough to make me burst in an explosion of squee! I was very careful. I sat on towels... I brought a bucket. I needed one.
IT was an awesome episode. Jensen was superb as usual. His fanboy appreciation of Elliot Ness and the Untouchables, and his whole pop-culture sensibility made his Dean a touching, lovely character. Here was a man who was almost back to being a little kid, he was having so much fun, and yet you never forgot just how dangerous he is. The scene where he and Ness were interrogating the bookie took care of that!
The play between Dean and Ness over the different vocabulary that's evolved over 60+ years was amusing and delightful, and the whole thing was perfectly done.
And yet Sam Winchester had the very best line of the night. "More cartoon smut or are you just into Dick now?"
I loved that Sam took an active part in the ep, and it wasn't all about Dean. I loved the shoutout to Rufus and Bobby with the bottle of hooch - although Sherrif Mills should've remembered who Rufus was, since Bobby had her cover for him and his dead body. I loved that Dean had seen "Back to the Future" and that Ness called Dean a bindlestiff.
To quote Dean, "Sweet mother of awesome!"
