I'm Sexy and I know it - Supernatural S8E02 Review
I'm referring to Purgatory!Dean, PTSD!Dean, Thor!Sam and Purgatory!Cas for the sexiness. This episode seems to magnify their beauty.
So again, there wasn't any connection in the freaking library. I'm getting a tension headache. There's a twitch by my left eyebrow. Anyway, I thought I'd write up the review in Open Office and then post it. Again.

Nice suit, grandpa. Very neat.
What's in the box! LOL I'm going to quote Seven so often.
On another shallow note, I think the girl looks like a slightly plumper happier version of Lea Michele. But her eyebrows are so severe.
Blood splatter!
Oh Dean, you're so callous. The boy just saw his girlfriend get murdered. What's wrong with you?
Dean's delusional that everything's gonna be that simple.
NEIGHBOR, MICHIGAN
For the record, I have to resist writing Neighbor as Neighbour. A product of the British educational system. LOL
“She seems okay. Sad, but okay.” I think that's all Kevin ever wanted to know Dean. Cut him some slack.
Oh, the mailman! And the gardener too. Very, very observant Dean. I like it when you show your hunter prowess.
Wow, I did not see that one coming.
I have a question. The heart is on the left side of the chest, so does the knife have to penetrate right to the heart, or just the chest in general, to kill the demons inside them?
Hahahahaha! The reunion is poignant, and the boys have to interrupt it with throwing holy water.
“Do you smell that?” What do they smell? Sulphur?
OMG Latin-speaking Sam is terribly hot. And he's doing the opposite of an exorcism isn't he? Digressing a little, I find it a little sad that the boys now kill the hosts as well, instead of just exorcising them. It makes them more ruthless, like they just don't care.
Hahahahaha. Reprimanding her kid about watching too much TV. But The Exorcist is a classic!
Mrs. Tran is a BAMF.
Oh, that tattoo-revealing move, that still melts me.
Reverse exorcism! Way to go Sam! I think that he's did some research and learning during the year.
There's a lack of blood during the tattoo session? Erm, I've never had a tatt before, so I'm just guessing from the numerous scenes in LA Ink.

The tablet was stolen! I like that it was stolen by some human crook, rather than a supernatural being. I think it shows that the regular humans make the biggest damage out of all creation, and most of the times we don't even know it.
Flashback: Dean's so feral-looking in Purgatory, with all the blood and all.
I love the change of scene between the interrogation room and Purgatory. It makes the viewer on the edge of the seat, not knowing if Dean will snap out of his hallucination on time to NOT kill the suspect.
Ooh, that's hardcore. I can see the blade through the mouth. Ew.
Why does the act of Dean taking off his tie makes me melt? That flick of the wrist just does things for me. I don't think we've ever seen him do that before.
Oooh nice car!
“So what's it going to be? The tablet, or that piece of EuroTrash crap you call a car?” Haha. Mrs. Tran is a BAMF, let me repeat that.
Who is that posh-looking Willy Wonka? His name is Bo. Short for Bo-Ass? (A Ten-Inch Hero joke :p)
“Well, I am the right-hand of a god, after all. Plutos, specifically.”
“Is that even a planet anymore?”
The God of Greed. Doesn't that ring the alarm for you boys?
Not the car! Baby can't be sold!
“Say it, and I will kill you, your children, and your grandchildren.”
“He didn't mean it Baby.” Yes Baby, he didn't mean it.
That whole drawer is not from him right? How many weapons does Dean have on him?
You slapped the King of Hell, Mrs. Tran! Go you!
“Listen to Moose, Squirrel.” Now both boys have animal nicknames. How sweet. Getting sentimental Crowley?
Samandriel. I think it's a nice name. Alfie too.The name Alfie reminds me of a stuffed toy, and I'm not quite sure why. I don't have a stuffed toy named Alfie. The guy really looks like an angel. And that's the guy from Bugs way back in Season 1. He grows up kinda angelic.
“I think too much heart was always Castiel's problem.” That's something to ponder about. And I think the sentiment is shared by some angels. Or at least I hope so. It means that there's still hope.
Flashback: Cas! You have a beard! And hug! Oh Dean, two episodes in and you've given hugs to 3 people! Huggy-wuggy you! (I'm beginning to wonder if I'm not actually high when I was typing this out)
I have a question, as to how the other monster knows that Cas is going to be there. I get the impression that the river/stream is far from where they interrogated him, so that means either he has the power of prophecy, or Cas didn't move the entire time. But how did he know our angel is going to be there in the first place?
Benny, you're driving a rift between the BFFs. What's your play monster?
You ran away Cas?
I like that Dean forgives Cas for running away. For whatever reasons there are.
“I'm not leaving here without you, understand?” But he wasn't there when you got out of Purgatory Dean. What happened?
On another shallow note, when did Dean shave in Purgatory?
Crowley notices the angel Alfie. Nothing slips past him.
And they're taking out and pooling their money. I don't think they're enough though, even with the Costco membership card.
Sam, you answered to Samantha. Hehehehe
3 tons of dwarven gold. That's rare right? I don't think the boys have them. /sarcasm
Yes Dean! A quick lift, and steal the tablet. Ugh. Failed.
Hammer of Thor! Mjolnir! Finger bone from a Frost Giant, which I hope is not Loki's. 5/8th of a virgin? That's nasty.
It's quite funny that the Winchesters can do jack-squat to Crowley there, just sit simmering while he taunts them.
“I bid my soul.”
“Are you sure? That's a big move.” It's about the sacrifice, not the quantity, Crowley. Take that!
So the boys win the bid!
It's telling, the way the boys answered Mrs. Tran's questions about whether it will hurt. Dean said “Probably” while Sam replied with “You just wish you were dead.” This reflects the past seasons, I believe, in that Dean had never lost his soul, while Sam had. Not sure where I'm going with this. Just an observation I guess.
Mrs. Tran is possessed by Crowley.
Sam, you're worthy of the Mjolnir! And yes, kill that old man too. You go man!
What's with you Dean? Always with the hunt. You almost killed Mrs. Tran!
Why are you still standing there? Launch yourselves at him! More importantly, why didn't you pick up the damn tablet?
The Trans disappeared. Why am I not surprised? Don't leave people in another room, they're just going to leave. OR else something bad is going to happen to them.
Ooh, Cas! Don't break my heart. I can't take it. And Dean, it's not your fault! Or I think it isn't.
This episode offers more insight to how Dean was in Purgatory. I like it, and I can't wait to see what else is in store. PTSD Dean on edge is a very delicious flavour. And it's peeled apart in layers, so I like that we get to see and take in one layer before they reveal the next. Plus it's clear that Benny is not so taken in with Cas, and I think that might be a reason why Cas was left behind when they got out.
And the reverse-exorcism just shows that Sam did do some hunt-related things while his brother was in Purgatory. We've never seen him do that before, and they will always let the demon escape to some other body in previous seasons. At least, I hope it's a sign of some sort. I really don't buy it that Sam just dropped his whole life and stopped looking for his brother and more importantly, dated that awful unprofessional vet. There has to be something else at work.
I also like the fact that they have several plans laid out before they case the joint. Not good plans, mind you, but it's better than winging it. I think having civilians with them makes them more careful.
Another great episode. And the next episode is directed by Jensen himself. Can't wait for that.
So again, there wasn't any connection in the freaking library. I'm getting a tension headache. There's a twitch by my left eyebrow. Anyway, I thought I'd write up the review in Open Office and then post it. Again.
