We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

Well then he went about it wrong. I mean he turned Sam into a real psycho killer, then undid the fact of the trauma, but sent him back with all the memory and experiences. I mean, did he really think that one speech would undo months of experience? I assume that the intent was to turn Sam into a stone killer without Dean having to die first to do it.The writers seem to agree this was the result. I don't think Sam would have bought Ruby's logic so fast before the Trickster trauma. Of course Trickster is famous for screwing up a lot, so maybe he really did not intend the result he obviously got. It is just that Trickster is also a notorious liar and deceiver, so I assumed he meant what he did, not what he said. [Edit: But I have to admit your reading is a fair one too.]

Well, perhaps had they shown the episodes in the original order my reading would have worked better but instead your reading works.

I really wish that they hadn't switched the episode order.

Because books.

See, I have thoughts about the episode order, but I'm going to have to come back to them because I have to go to work. Stupid work.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Either that or little girls are just creepy, which they are in horror-movie-land. I saw Poltergeist.

I think they're going for a twofold whammy: showing how evil this particular demon lord is by having it choose the most innocent and apparently harmless host possible, and jumping on the bandwagon of recent über-creepy children in films and TV. You know, Samara from The Ring, Charlotte from Blade, the Girl in the White Room from Angel, Dakota Fanning...

So they switched the episode order? I missed that part of the discussion in skipping and skimming. If the intended viewing order was tonights episode first, then Trickster that is an overwhelming point for your view.

Kripke felt that Jus in Bello was a better "season ender" if it had to be - or "hiatus starter". . as it is.

Jus in Bello is more cliffhangery, I agree, but getting my heart torn out by Mystery Spot would have been pretty awesome.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

There are ways to have an opinion that are nicer than this, though.

True. I apologize.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I do like the white eyes, though. If the hierarchy is, as they've led us to believe, black-eyed random low-level demons, red-eyed crossroads demons, yellow-eyed higher-level demons, of whom we've only seen Azazel, now this potential ruler of hell has singular blind white eyes. It makes me wonder if a demon is born to a level or a class, in the SPN mythos, or can work its way up through the levels of hell.
