...Yet more proof that Hell doesn't have a law school! I'm pretty sure that in Britain, somebody that young would not be allowed to sign a legal contract. I don't know the British equivalent of Dan'l Webster, but somebody needs someone with a firm grasp of the legal niceties in her corner.
Supernatural 1: Saving People, Hunting Things - the Family Business
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
I think she was supposed to be 14 in those flashbacks.
Per folks at the TwoP forum, I just ran Bela through the "all characters" segment of the Universal Mary Sue Litmus Test in light of the most recent revelations about her and got a score of 58.
What does that score mean?
She's less Mary Sue than you'd expect?
Maybe next season we'll get the "Adventures of Dean and Bela! In HELL!"
I will admit to having had this thought.
I have 2 questions:
1) Red eyes? wtf with red eyes?
2) Why, if Lilith wants Sam dead, would she make a deal to resurrect him?
What does that score mean?
Well, the test designer set 50+ as the cut-off point for "Kill it now." Meaning such a painfully obvious Mary Sue that no respectable author should have combined so many tropes of extra-specialness.

Me third. I was thinking, "Aww, well at least Dean will know someone when he gets there."
When I was 12, I would have known better than to sell MY soul grumble grumble grumble
Not a Bela fan, but this kinda made sense to me. Lord save us from teenagers anywhere in that 12-18 range. LIFE or DEATH. They'd sell their soul for a better car, let alone a more substantial reason such as abuse.
This, I fear, is the ultimate flaw in the Supernatural universe as constructed. If demons have the ability to make a deal with anybody, with no reasonableness limitations, how is it that a thirteen year old boy from Hoboken is not currently Emperor of the Universe, ritually beheading his sadistic gym teacher daily, and the polygynous husband of ten different Hollywood starlets?

- cough* Gunn. *cough*
Yeah, I think most teens (and especially preteens) are not quite as precocious as our Jilli.
The red eyes on Bela's demon confused me, too, because red eyes are a crossroads demon thing. But ... she was on a swing set, and she certainly wasn't shown summoning one.
