Watched Playthings whilst on the phone with Tess tonight. (No, by the way, I have not actually watched eps 9 or 10 yet.) Goodness, but that show was
AWESOME.
Now, I'll admit to some reading of spoilers on the old friends list. I'm a weak person. I knew about the drunk scene and what Sam gets Dean to promise, but I did NOT know that Sam woke up later all hung over, and Dean had the brief respite of thinking maybe Sam had forgotten because he was too drunk. And that at the end of the episode, there's that little cheek quiver, and the eye flick, and the general disgust with the whole thing, with his brother being all noble and self-sacrificing. Poor, poor Dean.
I mean, sure, on one hand knowing that you might turn evil has to be bad for Sam. I'm sure he's pretty angsty and upset about the whole thing. But DEAN might have to KILL HIM if he turns evil. And I just keep picturing that scene in my head. I mean. Dean wouldn't let Sam kill their dad when the big bad was in him. How could he kill Sammy?
I keep equating it to one of SG-1 getting infected with a goa'uld and the rest not being able to do anything about it, because they're so freaking sad and all "we're not going to kill our friend!" only it's his BROTHER.
And if faced with that decision, I don't think Dean could do it. Part of him would want to believe that Sammy could fight it. He'd let Sam live, and whatever is in him would live, and bad things would happen, and Dean would angst because it's all his fault that he couldn't kill his own brother.
Ha, maybe I've predicted season, what, four? And it ends with Dean exorcising whatever's holding Sam hostage, and he won't remember the last three years and he'll wake up asking for Jessica.
*sigh*
Well that got much more meta than I was expecting. Although, it's not terribly organized meta. It's just me hypothesizing and being, you know, tired and weird.
In other news, trying to find legitimate clips of anything on youtube is about as easy as finding (recent) flattering pics of Britney Spears. No, really, I do NOT want to watch your freaking fan vid, leave me alone. (Except for the one someone did to "Getcha Head in the Game" because COME ON!) But I did manage to find some things, and they're so stinking cute with each other I can't STAND it. I love that every single interview, Jensen manages to mention that Jared is at least twice his size and better looking, which ISN'T TRUE, JENSEN. The better looking part. Clearly he's twice your size.
*second sigh*
Okay, time to think about something else for a bit.
ps Eeee! I have new icons of their hot little necks! Because I have a neck fetish dating back to JOOOEEEY. But you can only see one at a time, so I'll use the other one later.
pps Okay, really, I'm thinking about something else now. And I'm posting this so I stop adding to it. Eee!
