SUPERNATURAL: S05E02 – Good God Y’all | Recap

Posted in Supernatural on September 19, 2009 by awsumdave

Leave it up to me to get this recap out late.  Most likely this is going to be a shorter recap, because usually I write the recap as I watch the show, but not this time, this is all coming from my head.

Well basically, it seems we have been introduced to another overall arc this season.  The main one being Dean trying to find out a way to destroy Satan, while the world falls apart.  The second one being, God is not in heaven, so Castiel must find him somewhere on this earth.

Dean and Sam once again visit Bobby in the hospital.  While they are there, Dean took the initiative to get an x-ray and saw the Nokian signal Castiel branded on their ribs.  When Castiel showed up after calling Dean’s cell phone, he told them that because they are hidden from all angels, he couldn’t locate them.  Bobby told Castiel to heal him, but Castiel said he doesn’t have all of heaven’s power anymore, only some of it, so healing is something he is unable to do. Bobby gets mad.  Then Bobby gets a phone call from an old Hunting buddy saying an entire town has been taken down by demons.  So Sam and Dean get sent to the town.

At the town, Sam and Dean run into their old hunting buddies from the hunters bar, and she has been housing survivors of the town who hadn’t turned yet, so the boys decide to armor up, and teach the town Rifle’s 101.  At the store, Sam is attacked by two teenage demons, and quickly slit their throats.  For a moment, he stood there, staring at the blood.  Later we understand that he wants to be strong again.

They find the demon’s headquarters in a house.  And here’s where it gets interesting.  They take Sam hostage, and try to get the demon out of him, and are baffled at why he has black eyes, but won’t get hurt when they pour holy water all over his body, and salt down his throat.  Apparently, there are no demons in the town whatsoever, but somebody is doing this TO them.

Dean found out that because someone saw a large shooting star the other night, Dean of all people remembered a verse from Revelations that said “and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as late figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind. 14The sky receded like a scroll, rolling up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place” It was worded differently in the show, but it was referring to ONE of the four horsemen. Apparently one of the four horsemen rode a red charriot, and Dean took that as a red car.  He found out that the horsemen was getting his power from a ring.

Dean took down the demon house, assuring everyone that they weren’t demons that they are hallucinating. Sam and Dean then took down the horsemen, and the war ended.  Good going, boys.

SUPERNATURAL: 5×01 – Sympathy For The Devil | Recap

Posted in Supernatural on September 10, 2009 by awsumdave

SN501-0005

We left our favorite brothers off last season having frightful faces on as the Devil was making his way to our friendly planet.  Well Dean and Sam decide to run finally, and strangely end up on a plane over the city.  Now at first you would think it’s the angels saving them again, but they kind of make points here and there that it’s the devil saving them for some reason.  So the plane makes a crash landing, and the brothers once again head to a nice little hotel.

This is when we meet our vessel for the Devil. It is the actor who played Jacob on LOST, and his character in this is Nick.  Well…he isn’t transformed into the devil quite yet.  He just starts having some strange things happen around his house.  First, he woke up with blood soaked sheets, but when he took a second look at his bed, clean.  When he got back into bed, his dead wife with scratches all over her face introduced herself to him, but once again, he closed his eyes, and the vision disappeared.

At the hotel, Sam and Dean get a visit from their number one fan from the prophet guy’s books. She had a message from him saying he had a vision of Michael’s Sword, and to find it at a castle of 42 dogs. Bobby shows up and tries to help Sam and Dean figure out what to do next, but Sam comes clean and tells him everything is his fault.  This pisses Bobby off, and told him to get lost, and if they pull it off somehow, he wants Sam to forget his number. Dean found some more items from his dad at a hotel called Castle Storage this ends up with him finding out that it wasn’t a castle of 42 dogs it was something that sounded like it, and after Bobby hears this, he knocks dean unconscious, cause he’s now a demon.

After commercial break, we see Bobby has a few demon partners with him, and Dean thought it was Ruby, but it wasn’t Ruby, it was the other Demon we met a long time ago, remember Megan? But when she told Bobby to kill Dean, somehow, Bobby was strong enough to knock himself out of it, and stab himself, killing the demon inside of him. Sam showed up, and couldn’t stop Megan, cause he had no more supernatural powers.

Back to Nick’s story line, he still is normal, but weird things are happening to him.  First the bloody sheets and dead woman, then the sounds of baby tears, as well as blood pouring out the bottom of a baby bassinet. Unsettling.

Dean and Sam leave Bobby at the hospital, and head to Castle Storage to stop Megan from getting the Michael Sword. When they arrived, there were dead demons and the angels showed up and said they planted that evidence in the prophets head, and told Dean he was the Michael Sword.

After commercial break, the angels told him he is THE vessel, Michael’s vessel, and thats the only way he will stop Lucifer. Dean realized they were only there because they need his consent, when he said no, the angels blackmailed him with hurting Bobby, when he didn’t consent, they gave him stomach cancer, and Dean still didn’t budge, so they collapsed Sam’s lungs.

That is when Castiel showed up and did some major angel butt whooping. He freaked the angel out, and fixed the brothers temporarily.  He gave them a symbol carved into their ribs that hides them from angels, including Lucifer…that’s convenient.

Back to Nick’s story.  He dreamed that his dead wife showed up and said she was an angel named Lucifer. He made a crack of that, and then Lucifer told him that he was going to be his vessel. Like the devil would, he made himself look like a human being that needs sympathy, and that God has been over-hyped, and is actually pretty cruel. He did a great job at convincing Nick that he is a good guy, and because of his terrible past, he said yes. Then the bright lights showed up. Cause everybody knows possession means bright lights

We return from the commercial break with Bobby at the hospital. They are all confused on what to do.  Bobby suggests just saving as many people as they can, and figure out the rest from there.  Dean’s all like, lets kill the Devil and Michael and whoever else they need to.  Before they left, Bobby stopped Sam, and apologized what he said earlier, and that it was the demon…very heartfelt. Outside, when Sam suggested going after the Colt, Dean said everything he said back there was for Bobby’s benefit.  He will fight, but he has to be honest with himself, there’s no way he’s going to defeat Satan. We have a Winchester moment next with Dean being dissaproving of his brother, as always.  Saying “We can never be what we were” and “I just don’t think I can trust you” before walking off and ending the episode.

SUPERNATURAL: 4.10 – Heaven and Hell – Recap

Posted in Supernatural on November 21, 2008 by awsumdave

supernatural-logo

Last week, we were left hanging when Castiel and Uriel busted in, with a death warrant for Anna. The reason was unknown, until tonight.  

The boys wondered what the angels’ reasoning were to kill an innocent girl. They said she was anything but innocent, which through the brothers off.  When the angels got impatient, and went for Anna, only to get warped away when Anna worked up some sort of spell that sent the angels away.

Remember that psychic we saw in this season’s premiere? She was back in tonight’s episode.  She was there to dig up Anna’s past, see what they are dealing with.  After Anna’s body started to shake under hypnotic state, she woke up with her complete memory.  Apparently, Anna is a fallen angel.  When I say fallen, I mean, she literally fell out of heaven.

Apparently she was a pretty powerful angel.  She was Castiel and Uriel’s boss, but she chose to become human one day, and ripped out her grace, which is also something that fell to Earth.  I’ll explain later why she decided to return to Earth.  Sam opened up the old laptop and did a little Google search.  He found two meteors that fell to the earth one day.  One where Anna was born, and another in Kentucky.

Later, sitting outside, Dean asked Anna why in the world she would give up being an angel to become human.  She liked human emotions, all the good stuff you don’t get in heaven like physical and romantic love.  Things you share with one other person, instead of the all-knowing love that all angels share with God.  She continued to say that only four angels have seen the big man upstairs. The remaining angels just have to live off faith, and if you don’t have faith, you’re killed. Four…really?  Because I believe somewhere in the Bible, it says there is a judgment day, where when everyone dies, they meet God, and are judged.  Maybe I’m mistaken.

Sam found the location where Anna’s grace touch-downed.  Apparently a very old beautiful tree popped up at the exact location.  So off they went.  When they arrived, Anna knew it was where her grace landed.  She could feel it, but she also realized they were too late, her grace had been stolen.

Anna got word from the angels saying the brothers send Anna to the angels by midnight, or Dean is packing his bags, and going back to the pit.  Well, not completely sure of what to do next, Dean has a chat with Anna outside.  She told him she knew what happened to him after he died, what he went through, and comforted him.  By sleeping with him in the back of the car.  Meanwhile, Ruby visits Alastair the demon, offering him Anna.

While he was sleeping, Dean had a visit from Uriel.  Once again Uriel threatened to toss Dean into the pit, but this time he wasn’t afraid.  He told him to just send him down, cause he doesn’t break that easily.  Fortunetly, cause those Angels are so tricky, Uriel knew just what to say to break Dean.  He said he would kill Sam if he didn’t give Anna up.  That brotherly love never dies in this show.  Dean had no choice.  Bros before ex-angels.

AHA, the confrontation.  The next morning, Castiel and Uriel arrived to kill Anna.  But at the same time, Alastair arrived to drag her to the pit.  Angels and Demons, ladies and gentlemen, the ultimate fight. Uriel took one demon out, by using the force.  Castiel went against Alastair, but dang that demon is powerful, he had the upper hand.  He was about to kill Castiel when Dean saved him.  Then Anna found her grace, and broke it on the ground, sucking it back into her body.  Everyone had to shield their eyes, or they would melt like in Indiana Jones.  When she got very bright, it seemed as if she killed Alastair, but I wouldn’t bet on it just yet. Then she disappeared, along with two angry angels.

Well, the day was done, and the brothers had a chat.  Dean felt it was time to open up about his time in the pit.  Just like a page out of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Hell was like a different dimension, where the time is different.  While he was dead for four months, it seemed like 40 years to him!  Every single day, he had to go through a terrible ordeal that no one could imagine.  For 30 years this was the norm, until Alastair offered him the position of torturer.  So for 10 years, he was the one killing and ripping people apart.  Now he has to live with the guilt.

SUPERNATURAL: 4.08 – Wishful Thinking – Recap

episode-4-08-wishful-thinking-set-photos-supernatural-2520858-1024-768

Fake ghosts, living teddy bears, superhuman strength, all in tonights episode of Supernatural.  Here’s the recap.

This episode kicked right off with a woman taking a shower.  The scene gets pretty creepy as an invisible teenager stalks her.  Well, it actually gets less creepy, and more comedic, as we learn that this is not as much of a haunting as it is some invisible kid peeping in on his teacher.

The Winchesters heard word of this, and they went to investigate.  Sam was the one to question her, he pretended he was an author, writing a book ironically called “Supernatural.” Apparently, she went on about how the ghost knew her name, and that when she fell down some stairs, it helped her up. At a table nearby, Ted Raimi, aka, Sam Raimi’s brother was making out with a younger woman, who looked out of his league.  

After Sam left, the brothers were walking, trying to figure out what was going on in the town when they ran into a man talking to a sheriff.  Apparently he found some “bigfoot” tracks in the dirt, and that they weren’t bear tracks, they were much larger.  When Sam and Dean went to investigate, they found the tracks as well, which confused them, cause they knew Bigfoot was a myth. They then find a liquour store ransaked, with alchohol missing, and some innapropriate magazines missing.  When they left the store, they saw a little girl on a bike carrying all the stolen goods from the store, apparently she was returning them.

The brothers followed the girl home, and asked her if she’d seen Chewbacca, and she said it was her teddy bear.  So, they claimed to be Teddy Bear Doctors, and she asked if they would have a look at Teddy.  Inside her house, sure enough was the bear, drinking boos, and watching the News.  It was obviously a fake-looking costume, but what do you expect from a life-size teddy bear?  The girl had apparently made a wish in a wishing well and it came true.  When asked about her parents, she said they wished to be at Bali, so they had to be there.  The boys told the girl that her bear had lollipop disease, and because it’s so contagious, she needs to stay next door.  

To see if the wishing well was real, Sam and Dean visited the restaurant it was in.  Dean flipped a coin in the well, and right off the bat, a delivery man walked in with a sub for Dean.  When eating his magic sub, Dean also noticed Ted Raimi with the girl, saying he definitly made a wish.  So the boys decided they had to shut the place down for health inspection.  They drained the well, and found a coin at the bottom of the well that wouldn’t budge, so they had to find the original wisher to grab the coin out of the bottom of the well.

Meanwhile, Sam finally figured out the fake ghost story.  He waltzed right into the womans bathroom, and somehow was able to find the boy right away, and told him to put some pants on, and stay visible.  Dean puked up his sandwich, proving that when you make a wish, it turns out bad in the end. In the papers, it said that Ted Raimi was engaged to the young attractive girl.  They made the safe assumption in saying he started all the wishes.

So the boys went to Wesleys home (Ted Raimi.)  They found out that he collects rare coins, to which he ends up confessing to making the first wish.  So the boys brought him to the car to collect his coin.  His girlfriend overheard them talking though.  

Ted didn’t want to go, cause he’s fine with getting what he wants, but the boys explained to him that his town was going insane.  A boy that normally got bullied by a team of guys, had super-strength, and knocked over a car.  Dean told him that with great power comes great responsibilty, to which he got punched in the face. A quote from Spider-Man, nice, Ted Raimi was in all three Spider-Man films.

At the restaurant, Sam and Wesley are about to reverse the spell when Sam got struck by a bolt of lighting.  Apparently Hope, his fiance, wished for it to happen, cause she was afraid to lose him.  He gave her one last kiss, and removed the coin, and everything was reversed.  ’Tis for the best.

 

SUPERNATURAL: 4.06 – Yellow Fever – Recap

Posted in Supernatural on October 24, 2008 by awsumdave

Alright, on to Supernatural. Sorry I am a little late getting this recap out, Mondays and Thursdays are busiest for me when it comes to TV.  By the end of the day I was dead tired, but now I’m awake, and ready to give you guys a recap. Tonight’s episode, we see a whole ‘nother side of Dean Winchester, as everything begins to scare him.  Why? Well lets just say…Ghost Sickness, but I’ll get to that in a little bit.

We start off tonights episode from Dean running from something unknown.  Running out of breath, trying to get away from whatever evil was trying to kill him. What is it, you wonder? Is it a demon? Maybe a Hell-hound? No, in fact it wasn’t even evil. When the camera panned down on what was following him, it was simply a very small dog with a pink bow tied around its head. Then we rewind about two days, to see how it all goes down.

Well, the boys were investigating a strange death, like always.  Apparently a man named Frank was literally scared to death.  Since the boys were aware that the man was a very healthy man, he shouldn’t have died so quickly, so they ordered the coroner to perform an autopsy, to see what the real problem was. On the outside of the victim the brothers noticed strange marks on the outside of his arms.  After removing the heart and handing it to Dean, the coroner found nothing out of the ordinary, then the body squirted in Sam’s face. Ew.

From the town sheriff the guys learn that Frank wasn’t the only man scared to death.  The same strange death has been happening around the town now and then. When they visited one of Frank’s buddies, he told them that back in the day, Frank used to be a big jerk, but after the years past, he got better, even got a wife.  One day, his wife died, but to unknowing Frank, she commited suicide.

Bad news time, Dean is starting to act obviously afraid of things.  Scary teenagers (couple kids on bikes) and he won’t go over the speed limit (20 MPH).  The boy’s EMF goes off, telling us all that Dean is haunted.  DUN DUN DUN!

Sam had a chat with Bobby, while Dean was rocking out to Eye of the Tiger, and found out that what was happening to Dean was “Ghost Sickness”. Now once this sickness has infected one person, it can infect anybody like a normal sickness. He told him that only douchebags catch the sickness (which makes no sense, logically.)

After Dean coughed up a woodchip, the boys found out that the old factory was the first place to look.  Of course it was the right place.  Anyways, Dean was afraid of his gun going off, so he only carried a flashlight, while Sam manned the shotgun.  They heard a noise coming from inside a locker, when they opened it a kitten jumped out, leaving Dean screaming like a girl for a long time. Finally, they found the ghost they were looking for. But unfortunetly, that scared the pee out of Dean.  It didn’t, but that would have been even funnier.

So here is the sitch – the ghost the boys found was a man named Luthor who died 20 years earlier.  A receptionist he used to work with was really Frank’s wife, and he had a crush on her. When she died, Frank didn’t know she killed herself, and went and found Luthor with a bunch of pictures and drawings of her, so he tied Luthor up to the back of his car and dragged him until he was past dead.  The cops wouldn’t arrest Frank, and that has been eating away at the sheriff, who also has Ghost Sickness, by the way.

So Dean wanted to salt and burn the bones, but Sam reminded him since the body was dragged by a car, they wouldn’t possibly find all the pieces, so they needed a plan B.  Dean began to act all whiney, and left, only to be chased by the tiny dog in the beginning.  He went to the hotel.  Where some hallucinations began happening.  I’ll get to that in a second.

Sam spoke to Bobby, who said the only other way to kill the ghost was to scare it to death. The only real option they had was to get some guns and run into the lumber mill where they first saw the ghost.  Well since he didn’t show up, Sam decided they needed to make him angry, so he started tearing up the pictures of Frank’s wife.  Obviously, Luthor showed up.

Now, to Dean’s hallucinations: First a yellow-eyed version of Sam harassed him, then the ill sheriff paid Sam a visit.  The two fought to the death.  By death I mean the sheriff getting a heart attack. Then hallucination-version of Lillith came to harass him.  Dean gets that close to dying of a heart attack himself, when Sam was at the mill, fighting the ghost.  He tied a chain around Luthors neck, and Bobby dragged him down the street killing him.  Dean was fine. The end, oh yeah, and that awesome Eye of the Tiger sketch Dean did in the credits.

SUPERNATURAL: 4.05 – Monster Movie – Recap

Posted in Supernatural on October 17, 2008 by awsumdave


“HOLY MOTHER OF CRAP!” ~ Security Guard

This episode was really just a fun silly episode, but I personally loved it.  It started right off like an intro to an old classic film.  Beginning music and credits, the whole shebang.  I knew it was going to be a black and white episode, I just had no idea it would be complete.

So the boys are on the hunt again, like always, this time its for a vampire in Pennsylvania, not to be confused with Transylvania.  Dean makes a hysterical remark about how the town has a terrible radio station, I thought that was pretty funny.  

So Dean arrived in a simply strange town complete with huge pretzels.  They were able to find a cop that lead them to the morgue.  At the morgue they found the victim with two puncture wounds in the neck.  Vampire alright.  The boys set off to a local bar to talk to one of the main witnesses that swore it was Dracula.  Down to the cheesy accent and cape.  Dean and Sam think its some vampire wannabe, but they decided to stay anyways.

Meanwhile, out at Kisser’s Peak, or whatever, two couples got attacked by a werewolf. Upon further investigation, the brothers saw that it did in fact look like a werewolf attack, which made them question the authenticity of their case.

In another part of town, at the museum to be precise, a mummy came out of it’s coffin and attacked a security guard.  Sam and Dean noticed that the mummy was in fact a prop, and not real, which added to the confusion of the whole deal.

In an alley, the girl Dean was flirting with earlier, that I forgot to mention was attacked by Dracula.  Well Dean came in to save the day and wripped the old count’s ear off, which led him and Sam to believe that whoever was committing all these crimes was a shape shifter that loves old horror flicks.

 

INTERMISSION: lol that part cracked me up..sorry, back to the recap

They found out that the shapeshifter works at an old movie theater, so Sam went to go check it out.  In the theater a man was playing the Phantom of the Opera on the organ.  BUT it wasn’t the shape shifter, so Sam was out of luck.

The shapeshifter was actually still at the bar with Dean and the girl. He was posing as the bartendar and drugged Dean…and the girl (can’t remember her name, lets call her Susy.) Well, the shape shifter brought Dean and Susy back to his place, and locked Dean up in what looked like Dr. Frankenstein’s lab. While Susy was locked elsewhere.  Though Dracula had to leave for a minute when the doorbell rang, it was pizza he had delivered. That was a pretty hysterical scene.

When Dracula met up with Susy, he realized that he scared her, which is what he was trying to avoid.  He went on to explain that he really wasn’t all that bad, he was just a tad bit INSANE.  Anyways, Sam found the shape shifters house, saved Dean, had a fight with Dracula, killed him with “silver bullets” and then that’s basically it.  The shot ended with the famous “The End” title.  Such a great episode.  Can’t wait for the next episode.

SUPERNATURAL: 4.04 – Metamorphosis – Recap

Posted in Supernatural on October 10, 2008 by awsumdave

 

“If I didn’t know you, I would want to hunt you.” Dean to Sam

This episode started off where I believe last week’s left off.  Dean went off to stop Sam from whatever evil-doing he was up to.  Well we start off seeing Sam and Ruby taking care of yet another demon.  Apparently, they were looking for the demon known as Lilith.  The demon they were questioning then said that he and Ruby have been doing secretive things themselves that would make Sam’s morals look questionable.  This upset Sam, and he used his super-powers to take the demon out of the body.  Dean, sitting in the bushes the whole time, saw what Sam just did.  You can guess he wasn’t all too happy.

He also learned that Ruby was the girl he was with.  This set him off, and almost killed her, but Sammy stopped his brother. The next day, Dean was packing up his things, ready to leave.  He told Sam that he didn’t need him, because he had Ruby to help him kill demons.  This set the brothers into a huge argument.  Sam trying to defend himself, while Dean was angry at Sam for lying to him. Well a hunter named Travis gave the boys a call about their new project.

So off we went to Missouri to meet…Jack Montgomery who was a very hungry fellow.  He looked like he just came out of a 40 day fasting period, and was dying for some real food.  Later on we saw why, he started to hulk-out to something..but all is well, he stopped.

Travis came to see the boys, telling them they had a “rugaru” on their hands.  Apparently the rugaru is harmless, until it reaches it’s thirties, and begins to change.  You see the transformation isn’t complete, until he eats human flesh.  He also learned that the only way to kill a rugaru is to toast it, burn it alive. Though Sam did his homework, and learned that some rugaru’s have gone vegan, and just said no to human flesh.  Travis said it was only a fairy tale, every rugaru he’s ever heard about had turned.

At Jack’s house, his wife accidentally cut herself, and he had to leave once he realized his wife looked appetizing.  The boys had a chat with Jack about his condition, but he said that they were just crazy, and to get off his property.  Later on that night, Jack had the urge to eat his wife, but Travis intervened.  He tied his wife and Jack up to a chair, ready to burn both of them.  He was going to burn the wife, cause she was pregnant with Jack’s child, and he will end up being a rugaru.  To save his wife, Jack attacked Travis and ate him up.  He untied his wife, but she just ran away afraid…..who’d blame her?

The boys got to Jack’s house too late, and saw what was left of Travis.  Well the rugaru showed up and knocked both the boys out cold. Sam was locked up in a closet when he woke, and Dean was laying on the dinner table.  Sam tried to convince him that there could still be good inside of him, but the urge over took him, and he was just about to bit Dean when Same broke free, and burned Jack alive.

In the end, the boys made up, and Sam told Dean he’d stop using his powers.  Until next week, Peace out!

SUPERNATURAL: 4.03 – In the Beginning – Recap

Posted in Supernatural on October 2, 2008 by awsumdave


Who else have noticed all of the religion-centered titles this season.  The premier was “Lazarus Rising”, and last week was “God, are you there? It’s me Dean Winchestor.” This week is “In the Beginning,” referring to the first three words in the Bible.  They really are going the spiritual route aren’t they?  Though next week’s episode is called “Monster Movie.” So….I don’t know.  Anyways, this week’s episode was fantastic, I loved it, heres the recap:

Tonight’s episode was a Dean-centered episode, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that Sam wasn’t in much of it.  In fact, almost none of it, other than the beginning of the episode when he snuck out and drove off with Ruby for something mysterious. In the middle of the night, Dean woke up to of course, an Angel sitting on the edge of his bed acting all creepy like.  

Hey Dean…want some candy?

 

Basically, this Angel through Dean into the past, which is what the episode is all about, going to the past to stop something terrible from happening.  It turns out he was in Lawrence, Kansas.  Home sweet home.  The first person he meets? His dad, this was very much like Back to the Future.

Hey there, Biff, I finished you homework

 

Really though, the actor that they chose to play John Winchestor in the past pulled it off. He really looked like what I might imagine John could have been.  So what would you do if you just met your dead father from the past, just let him go? Of course not, he followed him to a car lot, where he was seen about to buy a hippy van…what?  Guess what other car was there? thats right the Metallicar, and Dean pursuaded his dad to buy it. John reached his hand out to Dean introducing himself.  You know Dean’s alias of the week is?

Dean Van Halen

Again, Dean doesn’t know why he’s there, but he thinks it could be because of his dad. So what does he do, he stalks his dad.  First he watches as John met his girlfriend, and future wife, Mary.  Then he stalked them to a nearby diner, and I swear, he was standing right next to the window they were seated by, because his mom spotted him.  She found Dean, and went all Buffy the Vampire Slayer on him!  He was able to get a hold of her, and noticed a bracelet around her wrist that dignified that she was a hunter!

So he and his mom had a little chat. They both went into her house and we met her father, played by The X-Files’ very own Walter Skinner.  Who is also a hunter.  Must have been his occupation of choice after he retired from the FBI. Together they went on a hunt, to try to find out why he was sent there.  When Dean questioned a teenager, he said he saw the yellow-eyed demon! 

So now Dean was convinced that the reason he was sent to the past was to kill the yellow-eyed demon.  So that he could live a normal life, his parents would never have died, everything would be good.  So his plan was simple go get the Cult gun, and kill the demon.  On the road, the Angel appeared before him again, and told him that if he did alter the future, all the lives he saved would be lost.  Dean thought that was a price he was willing to sacrifice for his family.

Before Dean got to the house the demon was at, his grandfather and mother arrived first, trying to help him out…fools.  This is where everything gets a whole lot more complicated.  When Dean got there, the yellow-eyed demon left it’s current body.

So Dean and his future grandfather had a talk.  He told him the truth, that he was from the future, all that jazz.  Guess what, the yellow eyed demon was inside his body! Holy crap, things do not look good from here.  Because Dean just set everything into motion.  He told the demon everything he needed to know to have history repeat itself.  Truly remarkable.  Then his grandfather took out a knife and stabbed himself, went over to his wife and killed her as well.  Then he left.

The demon showed up to Mary and John about to make out, and he KILLED JOHN! What!!  Then he made a deal with Mary, he said he’d restore John’s life, in order to come back ten years later to get something.  All she needed to do was kiss him….wait….what?  You heard me right.  Dean’s mother kissed her father. It was a little hard to see, I am not sure if it was just a peck or full on kiss.  But it doesn’t matter, the deed was done, and the demon left her father’s body.  

That’s when the Angel grabbed Dean, and took him…Back to the Future.  He explained that he needed him to know how it all went down, so he could know everything they did (angels.)  Then he told him to go stop Sam from doing something bad.  TO BE CONTINUED…

Wow, what an episode, I must say.  I was very much into it.  Next week they get pulled into a B/W episode based off of old horror flicks.  Should be interesting for sure.  Until then, peace out.

 

 

SUPERNATURAL: 4.02 – Are You There God? It’s Me, Dean Winchester Recap

“Dude…where’s the pie?” ~ Dean

Last week on Supernatural, we learned that Dean has a little guardian angel watching over him.  In tonights episode, we learned why everything is happening.  And it’s one heck of a shocker.

The episode started off showing us Olivia, another hunter in the majority of hunters in the world.  She wakes up to some strange mojo happening, so naturally, she grabbed a gun out of her stash of weapons and went to work.  In front of her, a strange man appeared staring at her.  So she shot him, he vanished.  Then he reappeared, and so did a woman, these obviously weren’t demons, because salt did not effect them.  The weird people then killed her.  Cue “Supernatural” logo.

So, now we’re introduced to our golden boys, Sam and Dean, once again arguing about the angel. Dean is convinced that the angel is really a demon.  Sam is convinced otherwise.  Bobby intervened saying the only logical thing that can pull a soul out of the pit is an angel, from what he can tell nothing else can do that. Dean doesn’t understand, and he asked the age old question, if God really exists, why does he allow so many bad things to happen, and why does he care about me? I’m just a normal guy.

So I guess Sam was out at the gas station to buy Dean some pie when Ruby showed up.  She wanted to know if it was true about Dean being saved by an angel.  Sam said he believes so, so Ruby freaked out, because…demons are afraid of angels, of course.

Bobby confronted the boys about Olivia.  Apparently she hasn’t been returning his calls, so out they went to find what was wrong.  Inside they found her dead body and an EMF device, which meant that this case had to do with a spirit of some kind.  When they left, they tried to call all the other hunters they know, no one picked up their phone.  They even checked out some of their homes, all were dead.  Does this mean the only hunters left in the world are none other than the Winchesters?

Sam and Dean stop at a gas station, and heres where everything gets interesting. Everything around him gets freezing, which obviously meant there’s a ghost around, and guess who shows up behind Sam in the bathroom… That’s right! Agent Hendrickson from the previous seasons of Supernatural.  His spirit blamed Sam for what happened to him.  He got so angry that he began to beat up on Sammy!  Don’t fret though, Dean was close behind to know what was going on, and shot Hendrickson.

Meanwhile, Bobby is at his house when strange things began to happen to him as well.  The same signs as before, the room began to freeze over, strange sounds, then we saw who was haunting him.  Two evil twins…spooky.

After a few minutes, the brothers busted into Bobby’s place, weapons drawn.  They knew that whoever these spirits were were after hunters and the chances were that they had already gone after Bobby. (Which they have)  To find him faster, the boys split up.  Sam went outside to search, while Dean stayed in the house. 

While Dean was scouting out the house, another familiar face showed up, Meg! She looked a lot differerent with longer hair and no make up.  Basically, this is the Meg that was inside the demon-infested Meg.  She blamed Dean for being cold and not even considering that there was an innocent girl inside that body.  He apologized, and of course she began beating him up.  He couldn’t shoot her because…come on! He already killed her once, and she’s complaning about it now…it would just be rude!  But seriously…these spirits are SELFISH, me me me me me.  Anyways:

So…oh yeah, Sam is outside searching for Bobby.  Bobby is somewhere in the trunk of a car being taunted by those two demon twins.  It took Sam quite a while to find him, but thanks to the fact that Ghosts make things freeze over, Sam found a popsicle car, and saved Bobby from being torn apart.

So when they are all somewhat safe, they all discovered that each of the spirits had a strange mark on a part of their body, and all the marks matched.  Bobby quickly rushed them down to his dungun, otherwise known as the panic room.  He said the mark they all saw was something called “The Mark of the Witness.”  Which is part of a seal that’s been broken.  There is a spell to put the souls to rest, but the seal itself has been broken, and there is no way to reverse that.

Since they can’t stay in the panic room the whole time, the boys had to leave to get the spell ready.  But they all knew once they stepped outside, there was going to be a lot of spirits trying to stop them.  The first one they saw was Ron.  Ron was the guy from the bank heist episode, he blamed Dean of course.  So Bobby shot him, and OFF THEY WENT.

Let the action begin!  Bobby started making the spell but it wasn’t all that easy, spirits everywhere were closing in on them, taunting their every move. They were doing pretty good at first, but then the spirits just came coming back faster and faster, the boys were losing ammo. But Bobby was able to say the spell, and off the spirits went.

In the end, the angel from last week’s episode showed up again.  He confirmed that the apocolypse is coming.  He said it was Lillith that brought the spirits back to haunt them. He said that if all the seals are broken, Lucifer will walk free.  No pressure guys!

Next week, it looks like Sam and Dean go Back to the Future! err…I mean past, I am positive that that episode is going to be very good.  Until next week, peace out!
