A little longer this time, but somewhat fragmented.
Includes pictures.

Supernatural - 303 - Bad Day at Black Rock.

After the recap it was pretty evident that we would see Gordon again, and I still would have know when they showed us his back if I'd missed the recap. I loved seing the guy behind bars, but spreading his dirty little rumours from behind bars to other hunters and speaking badly about Bobby, no, sir. I do not like this guy.
So Sam told Dean about Ruby, but did he tell Dean everything? I don't think so, as what they seemed to focus on was what Ruby could do for Dean.

Dean: (to Sam) She knows what your weakness is. It's me!

That line just made me giggle. It had to send the Wincest fans into a frenzy. Lol. 
Ok, I just love the fact that Dean's kept one of John's cell-phones, I know it was for business purposes, but I still think it was sweet. And John's phone has helped before, so Dean was smart enough to think ahead.

I knew John had a storage facility! Come on, he was so obsessed and well organized, of course he had one.

Dean: (reading from trophy) 1995.
Sam: No way. That's my Division Championship soccer trophy. I can't believe he kept this.
Dean: Probably the closest you ever got to being a boy.


I seriously thought that was the sweetest thing ever; John's kept stuff from the boys childhood, which tells me it meant a lot to him. I also loved the fact that he'd kept Dean's first sawed off shotgun, that was awesome.

So some stupid person's made off with a cursed object or evil entity or whatever's in thos boxes. i kind of figured it was a ghostbusters type deal, where very bad things were in the boxes.


The two doofuses who stole the box made me laugh. It was obvious from this point that the episode would be kind fo silly. But I like silly.
When they decided to open the box I was expecting a bcak cloud to come out and devour them or something. I guess I was just as stunned as them when it turned out to be a rabbit's foot.
The whole bit where the brothers break in and confront them was great. Total slapstick humor, but it worked. Very funny.

Love the fact that the first thing Dean did after figuring out it was a lucky rabit's foot was to get scratch tickets.

Wow, they're getting really grizly with the deaths this season. Something tells me it was worse before and they had to cut it, but that was seriously gruesome enough as it was.


Lol, Sam did not seem to happy about winning a years worth of free food. That would be heaven for Dean though. Loved the way the picture came out.


I so expected that woman to steal the foot from Sam, I didn't recognize her from the pictures I'd seen of Bela, so that was good. That was a great intro for her as far as I'm concerned. And it gave me hope for the future of the character.


Jesus, lovin' Kubrick is kind of much for me, but did lead to some amusing scenes.

Kubrick: Don't play with my Jesus.

Kubrick and his friend get hungry. And see the awesome picture of the boys, which of course leade Kubrick to believe that God hates Sam as well. Moron.

So Dean and Sam return to the scene of their crime and interogate Grossman. I had to giggle slightly when Dean started talking about being able to read people, as it reminded me a bit of what he pulled on Mara in Folsom Prison Blues, plus Dean is awesome.
At least the boys score some good info about the girl; Bela Lugosi. I think that's my favourite alias thus far in the show, seriously, just awesome.
So Sammy's bad luck continues as Dean get's some more info from Bobby about what's going on and who Bela really is.

Bobby: (to Dean) Watch out for your brother, you idjit.

Awww, Bobby.
While Dean talks with Bobby, Sam steps in a wad of gum. He attempts to wipe it off on a storm grate at which point his shoe falls in it, and I start giggling like crazy when I see the dissapointed look on Sam's face.


Sam: I lost my shoe.

That was probably the best moment in the entire episode. Jared nailed that, and I can just picture them as kids, where Dean is looking after Sam where something similar would happen. I think Sam went back into kiddie modus during the bad luck.

I like that Dean thinks ahead and places Sammy in the motel room, though I'd probably choose a place closer to where Bela lived.

(Dean leads Sam into a hotel room)
Sam: What am I even supposed to do, Dean?
Dean: Nothing, nothing! Come here. I don't want you doing anything! I want you to sit right here and don't move! Okay? Don't turn on the light, don't turn off the light, don't even scratch your nose!

Lol, I have to admit I scrathed my nose after he said it. And the look on Sam's face when he scrathes his nose, lol, like he's doing it out of spite; awesome.

I have to say, Bela has a nice place. Maybe I should start thieving hunters?
I loved the way Dean broke in, with regards to the alarm and the post-it.

Bela: We're all going to Hell, Dean. Might as well enjoy the ride. 


I actually liked Bela, she's kind of a kickass chick and she can bring some fun storylines later in the show. The scene where she and Dean talks about the rabit's foot and she reveals her knowledge of the supernatural was good.

Bela: You can have the foot... for 1.5 million.
Dean: Nice. I'll just call my banker.

I kind of figured Dean would go for the foot, but have to admit I have no idea when he actually managed to swipe it.

And meanwhile poor Sam runs into some more bad luck when the heater cathes fire. Jared did a good job with that scene, the boy has comedic talent.
Of course the bad luck holds up when Jesus-lovin' Kubrick and his mate are right outide as Sam manges to knock himself out. Silly boy.
So slightly insane Kubrick believes Jesus is onm his side and they start having some fun with Sammy.

Kubrick: I used to think Gordon sent me.
Sam: (tied up in the chair) Gordon? Oh, come on!
Kubrick: He wanted me to put a bullet through your head.
Sam: Yeah. Sounds like him.
Kubrick: But I'm on a mission from God. (slaps Sam)

Just as Kubrick's done playing around Dean comes in to save the day. With some awesome tricks.

Kubrick: (to his companion) It's God. He sent us here to do this. It's destiny. (points gun at Sam, tied up in chair)
Dean: Nope. No destiny. Just a rabbit's foot.


I gotta say, I loved the look on Dean's face when he managed to get the pen to jam the gun. Awesome.

Dean: I'm Batman.
Sam: (sarcastically) Yeah, you're Batman.

No, Dean. you're much better than Batman!!

Have to admit I would have goned for the scratch cards too if I were in Dean's shoes, and I'd scratch as many as possible before burning the foot.


Of course Bela has to come along to complicate things.

Dean: You're not gonna shoot anybody. See, I happen to be able to read people. And sure you're a thief, fine, but you're not gonna... (Bela shoots Sam)


Oh, Dean. Come on, she's ruthless. Lol, though I didn't think she'd do it either and the look on both boys faces were priceless.
Though Dean is a clever boy and manages to trick the bitch, so now there's no other choice than to burn it.

Dean: Oh don't go away angry. Just go away. 


I knew she would snag the scratch tickets. It was pretty obvious. They didn't actually need to show her driving off with them, but still funny.

Back at the prison with Gordon and Kubrick, Kubrick has gone of the deepend and says he is fully on board with the mission of killing Sam Winchester.

Kubrick: You were right about everything. Sam Winchester is more than a monster. He's the Adversary.
Gordon: And what happened to convince you?
Kubrick: God led me to him. And His will is clear.
Gordon: Okay. Glad to have you on board, Kubrick. But first things first. We got to get me the hell out of here. Because, like I told you before, Sam Winchester must die.

I fucking hate that guy.

All in all an awesome episode. I had a lot of fun watching it, and I'm sure I'm going to watch it several more times.
So far I like Bela. The new girls are making a good impression on me, if we're in for more of this stuff it looks like it'll be a fun season.
