the very final scene when they're leaning against the dodge and talking about Dean taking care of himself and Sam being a hippy camper.

Maybe it was the bright sunshine.

Dean was forcing his smile at the end but that was just to shout "I'm really not okay and able to function without you even though I think I should try and act that way."

I love Becky, but I do wish I had been a little prepared for the 4th wall to come down. I watched it with my parents and when they would start to ask a question, I had this feeling of there-is-no-way-I-can-explain-all-of-the-backstory. My mom did go "Oh NO!" when Sam woke up in bed, so they immediately tripped the Misery vibe with her. I think that is one of her squick scenes in a movie. I may never convince her to watch Supernatural again.

Well, yeah. We were supposed to feel that Dean wasn't happy to be 'free' of Sam.

That was the only moment that felt genuine. The conversation preceding that felt forced in a meta way. I'll shut up now, since I haven't seen the whole ep and have been up since 3am.

Just finished here and I'm not sure what to say. Did like getting an explanation of the lack of demons. And Crowley in general. May need a rewatch cause that is really all I've got.

Crowley was hot like burning tonight. This makes me feel dirty.

And I thought Becky looked really cute tonight. But it made me want to watch Ginger Snaps.

I kind of hated seeing Becky turn super-stalker. Not how I thought of the character. Other than that I mostly liked it. Also, things really are kind of in place for them finish off Leviathan. They have two known ways of disabling the things - head removal and borax. Also spells, but even though they cast spells all the time they are apparently not doing anything to research the one spell they saw paralyze a Leviathan for days at a time with their own eyes. Or even make a cautious approach to the witch they saw cast it. I mean they have made deals with Crowley, but don't even think about doing a deal with the witch who saved their lives? And if they need it, I'll bet Crowley hates Leviathan enough to help them beyond leaving them alone.

I think they only have one--both of those at the same time.

I liked it! Becky is super-stalker, so that's not a big deal for me. She's not the sort I think would go all the way through with the plan, nor have sex with him, so I'm okay with her crazy boundaries.

Fangirls who think she's them, however, are probably plenty pissed.

I thought she looked pretty cute too. Her lipstick had me mesmerised in scenes.

I like that they called out the death peen. That makes me happy.

I didn't get anything false off the final scene--I thought it was heartwarming, and we took away from Dean exactly what we were supposed to get. He can't have Sam amputated, not now. He's not nearly ready.

DJ Qualls usually weirds me out (he's so small!), but by the end of it, I was actually rooting for Becky/Garth. I might even read that...

I met a SPN fan today! I was out with bon bon and rob rob and was talking about Show, and the woman in front of me *plotzed*. We spent almost ten minutes going back and forth about love and Dean and Jared and near encounters with actors and the like. It was so cute. She was actually jumping up and down with excitement. So adorable.

I don't know. I just don't see Beck slipping stuff into drinks or tying Sam to a bed (without permission).
