I saw Becky getting a little too attached to a bad plan in order to impress her high school class.
That's exactly what I saw. I also saw her ultimately bowing to reality and doing the right thing. So. Rabid fans may be rabidly fannish, but they aren't psycho.
I loved Crowley's crack about having integrity. And we don't know that the crossroads demon doesn't survive whatever Crowley does to him, it seems to me in Hell everybody survives, but very, very painfully. It's not a good example to the others if the offender is just killed, the example has to be front and center all the time. The demon who didn't survive was a white guy.

I really liked that it was a struggle for her to let go of her dream and do the right thing.
As for the crossroads demon, I liked how that arc played. He did come across at first as a good friend, and his reaction at first seeing Sam read upon initial viewing as possibly being dismay that a girl he liked was hooking up with someone else. In retrospect, though, it was clearly an 'oh crap, is that Sam Winchester?? reaction. Love. And yeah, I think that the demon that Becky knifed got off easy in comparison.
Also, I have to say that the exploding wedding cake in the credits cracked my shit up. Nicely played, Show. Nicely played.
Crowley was AWESOME. The Wall Street crack was priceless. And it's really true to Crowley's character, I think -- he may lie to you if he doesn't have a deal in place *not* to, but once he does make a deal, he tends to stick with it. And he also knows where his bread buttered.
The exploding wedding cake had all three of us howling, Sara maybe the hardest. And I HAVE to write fic (probably gen) about the first ever sacred pilgrimage to Vegas now.

Ohhhh, yes, please.
I have been waiting for CJ to come home to rewatch. He got home a bit ago and immediate decided to take a nap. Arrrgggg.
I'm going to sign us all up for the scavenger hunt in the next day or so. I figure I can put us all on one team and then see what happens. I'll cover the entrance fee--if you want to send me $10 on pay pal, that's cool, or if you want to send it to a local food bank or whatever, that's even cooler, but if neither happens, that's totally cool too.
I've got Erin, me, Amy, Anne, Brenda, Raq, and maybe Lisa H. Am I missing anyone?
Oh, me, me, me. I'll give it a go. Thanks for organizing this, Perkins.
