SPN 5.03 Free to Be You and Me
Is Sam wearing lipstick? He is. He's wearing just a leetle bit of pink lipstick.
LYNYRD SKYNYRD!!!!!!!!!! SIMPLE MAN! YESYESYESYES!!!
"Eat it, Twilight!" YES! Holy shit, yes!
The blood spattered across Dean's face on a vampire hunt? Is this a callback to Bloodlust?
Personal space invasion. Bwah. "Teenage Mutant Ninja Angel." Ha. And then comes a Thelma & Louise reference, and wow this whole scene is just SLASHY SLASHY SLASH SLASH. So is Dean doing up Cas' tie. In some other universe, someone made a buddy cop show about them, and it was hilarious week after week. "When humans want something really, really bad, they lie." Hmm, put in the context of Season Four and Dean's whole history of interpersonal relationships, this is really... sad.
Can Cas tell a direct lie? Because he seems almost compelled to answer the officer's questions.
"When Michael jumps my bones." WHEN, not if. Has Dean surmised that he won't be able to hold out forever? Also, all of the language surrounding Michael possessing Dean is very... sexual. Other people have already commented on this, but I think it's interesting that they're being consistent about it. Even the way Lucifer approaches Sam is a seduction, first coming to him as Jessica and then quoting love songs at him. "It had to be you," indeed.
Was this trap-Raphael thing concieved as a suicide mission for Cas? He's lost everything, so what's his life?
"Yeah. You're sorry. Heard it the first time." This, directed at Sam, right now, is just... ouch.
Cas' look of TERROR. "This is a den of iniquity." "Iniquity is one of the perks."
"The entire industry is built on absent fathers." Oh, God. Given JA's comments about how Dean pays the bills, this statement just... *facepalm*
This whole whorehouse subplot is rife with Unfortunate Implications, isn't it? Hasn't fandom already had a misogyny wank?
"It's been more than a long time. Years." Aw, boo.
Lindsay is really fucking annoying. Prying, pushy, preachy. Damn it, Show, we know you can write more interesting women; we've seen you do it. Duckie is displeased.
RAPHAEL HAS ELECTRIC WINGS. And a truly beautiful voice. All of Dean's mouthing off seems to have two goals: 1) get Raphael to step in the circle and 2) get Raphael to focus on Dean, the unkillable one, instead of Cas. And God, the fear on Dean's face right before he turns around with his cocky sneer. Well played, Ackles.
Why is the universe bending itself around Sam's issues this episode? It's not just contrived, it's... boring. I am bored with these hunters and their bullshit. *frownyface*
Hmmm, Cas' "my little bitch" thing fell kind of flat for me. Your mileage may vary.
Oh, shit, fandom is going to explode. Dean doesn't love his brother anymore because he's just no damn fun. *headdesk* Except for how that is obviously a load of bullshit piled ten feet high to hide the gaping hole in him. Yeah.
Well, isn't that tidy. Sam and Dean, vessels to the champions of the opposing sides. I'm... a little annoyed by the symmetry, but hoping they do something interesting with it.
Solid episode. Never going to be one of my favorites, but laugh-out-loud funny in places and with some kickass Raphael.
