Well, JA was in the scene where wee!Sam says Bobby gave it to him.
But that still doesn't tell us what it *means*. Plus, I don't think he would have wanted to spoil anyone.
Finished rewatch. Definitely Rosemary Clooney singing.
Have fun, West Coasters!
I love reading LJ's reactions to this episode. People coming forward to post that they will post later, but they just had to say something now because it was so perfect. LOVE.
I also love that others were so happy with the intro. I literally jumped to the other side of my bed and grabbed the remote because I thought the dvr had switched channels on me. They got me.
Largely because I'm a lazy sod, I'ma crosspost part of what I've said here tonight on my LJ. Just to have something to say. Poor thing's empty lately, except for the occasional cat hair tumbleweed rolling by.
The Rowan is what I was thinking of in terms of protection:
The European rowan (Sorbus aucuparia) has a long tradition in European mythology and folklore. It was thought to be a magical tree and protection against malevolent beings

SO MUCH LOVE for this ep. I foresee many many rewatches.
We did not do well on our post and watch, at least on the board, and you guys wanted us to. Sad now.
I can't do the watch and post, unless it's previously-viewed. It's sort of like watching smonster dance, I'm so absorbed in watching I can't comment.
I sort of blurt afterwards, and if I can re-watch and post, I can usually manage to mutter something or other.

So, that's what we're calling it now, okay?
