From the phone call in Home:
"I don’t know what to do. So, whatever you’re doin’, if you could get here. Please. I need your help, Dad."
From My Bloody Valentine:
"Please. I can't. I need some help. Please."
I think him saying "please" and admitting he couldn't do it alone was taking me back to the episode Home. I just don't know because John went off smiling in a white light so maybe he would look up when talking to him.
On the other hand as I watch the end of My Bloody Valentine, I think JA is selling that Dean is talking to God. There is a putting down of the bottle, a glance at the car, a shaking of his head as if he is shaking off the disbelief and then the plea. Honestly I think he was talking to God. In my heart though, he was talking to John.
I have every confidence Cate Blanchett will be able to win them over once she appears...
What I thought, in his Gethsemane moment, was that he was in such extremis he was willing to consider the existence of God, and to turn to him for help, if God was actually there and listening. A last ditch sort of thing. And that may be entirely off-base, but it's what I got from the scene.
That's what I got out of it, too. He was just so tired and utterly defeated and just kind of gave into asking for help from something he'd always maybe been afraid to believe was real, because what if it weren't, or what if it were and there was still no help to be found there.
I take it there was no new ep this past Thurs.?
Also, belated happies, Beverly!
imdb says the next episode will be March 25th.
They showed "The Curious Case of Dean Winchester" this past Thursday. I enjoy that episode for Sam kicking ass at the most improbable hand of poker. And cute grumpy Bobby.
I have quibbles with that episode but Chad Everett is wonderful.
What quibbles?
It becomes apparent in retrospect that if there's a Satanic alert out on the brothers that witch should have known about it.
And I'm sure they messed up the poker, since most TV does, for dramatic effect.
Chad Everett was pretty damned funny, though.
If the man witch knows that Dean is having a heart attack how ever far away, he ought to know what's in the hand of the dude sitting across from him.
It was cool that that while Sam got some luck, he won via acting. The witch was over-confident in his ability to read people, maybe distracted by having a girlfriend who wanted to die.
Also, this was a witch with his own code. Maybe turning Dean in would have violated it.
And I know the hero always wins in fictional poker games but Sam's hand seemed like rabbit's foot lucky.
