That scene would have been more disturbing except that I just knew that the creepy child would show up again.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Because books.
Oh, I agree, Wolfram. And the actress played it so well, completely strung out, not quite believing what she was doing but so afraid and exhausted.

You know, I was racking my brain as to where I've seen that scene before, and all I could come up with was South Park - Butter's Very Own Episode. I'm sure it's been done elsewhere too. But even though the scene wasn't original, the acting and direction were spot-on amazing.

Oh my ... I really enjoyed this episode. The minute Ben opened his present and yelled (approximation) "awesome! AC/DC rules!" my first thought was Dean's your daddy. And I just laughed and laughed at the similarities (hot chicks in the moonbounce!). Then it got scary ....

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
The whole demon-not-all-evil thing troubles me: it has the potential to upend the show's worldview, but we won't know that till we get more information.Oh, I expect she's evil. I just don't think evil all follows exactly the same game plan. But I think she's evil.

What is even happening?
Ben: "Only bitches send a grownup."
Dean: (impressed) "You're not wrong."
Uh oh. Nice parenting, Dean.
I don't know. That's the kind of thing I find myself wanting to let my children know. Parenting is the job of rearing children to be adults, but some children need extra help in mastering childhood.

My "uh oh" was for teaching him how to take the kid down, though. Which, honestly? Not always a bad thing. But probably not the best when it's a) not your kid, and b) your very first instinct.

He'd borrowed a toy and would not give it back - at an age when you are old enough to know better. I'd say at that point your choice is:
1)fight
2)send in a grownup
Cause he is not going to be talked into giving it back. It is not just that he wants the gameboy or whatever it was. He is enjoying the bullies thrill in humiliation and taking away someone else's stuff.
