Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?  

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Speight's rockin' it tonight too.

I'm disturbed by how hot I find him. Tonight was no exception.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Supernatural continues to adhere to the "all is predestined, there is no free choice, your actions and intent mean nothing" philosophy.

But how can that play out all the way to the end?

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

Yeah, Speight is my new fandom, I think. He delivered the anvil chorus as well as anybody ever could, and he holds the screen really well. I want him to get his own show!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

THAT WAS AWESOME!!

Exactly what I needed tonight.

HONK!

I'm soooo stupidly swoony over the way he plays that character. He managed to sell me on the retcon.

Dean becomes a Michael suit. Sam becomes a Lucifer suit. They kill each other. The world ends. The end.

I'm glad that is really not likely to be out the end. Because while it would be a ballsy ending, it would be a heartless one, and the show usually does have heart. Still not out of line with the type of horror that are at the show's roots.

Really don't know how they resolve it. God shows up? There has been enough setup and foreshadowing that this would be legitimate, but there is a reason that "Deus EX Machina" is normally a critique rather than a compliment.

Steal from Angel? Show fades on Sam & Dean together still fighting to stop the Apocalypse with the odds not looking good?

I'll curious to see how they do resolve this. Ideally nothing too easy on either side of the ledger. Neither Sam & Dean riding off (together or separately) into the sunset, nor Sam & Dean as dead meat puppets battling endlessly across the lifeless waste that was once our world.

I don't find anything I've outlined a satisfying ending, but I suspect Kripke has come up with one.

Michael and Lucifer HUG IT OUT, BITCHES.

Clearly, this is the way the world ends.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I continue to opine that the brothers' success will be a subversion of what these fates have in store for them. A great escape. Even if they end up ensuited at some point, I don't see it going the way any of the big players want. We watch to see them flout these things.

And to see Sam get punched in the groin. I wonder if realised the answer to the question was Ruby.

God, the CSI: Miami riff was painful. JP looked like Jim Carrey doing David Caruso.

But the simple best was Dean's mancrush on Dr. Sexy.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Speight absolutely sold the idea of Trickster-as-Gabriel. I can't help but hope that what Dean said to him at the end sinks in and that Gabriel does wind up standing up to his family. For one thing, story-wise, that could be kind of awesome. For another, I'd love to see the character come back for an episode.
