spn 8x13 reaction + spoilers  


In no particular order, things I loved about this episode..

  - Nazi necromancers
  - Aaron and his Golem - both of whom I loved (the actors rocked as well).  Want more.
  - The 40s/50s music playing in the Batcave.
  - The boys drinking scotch/whiskey rather than beer at the end (shades of Mad Men)
  - How both brothers were dressed throughout.  Sam's vest, Dean in the robe with wet hair (*dies*), Dean's colorful plaid shirt.  ALL of it.
  - Dean geeking out over the sword.
  - Sam geeking out over the books and making an entry in their library about what they learned.
  - Hal Linden
  - The whole storyline.  I was holding my breath people!   
  - Did I mention the music and the scotch/whiskey?
  - Did I mention Dean in the robe with wet hair? *iz shallow*
  - Dean calling Sam, "little brother."  Yeah, I mentioned this in one of my other posts.  Don't care.  Still smiling about it.
  - How close the brothers seemed
  - I want to explore the Batcave.
  - How in spite of the Batcave, they still went on the road.  Best of both worlds.
  - I loved the bar scene between Dean and Aaron (the gay pick up).  I don't think it was overwritten or overplayed.   I think Dean was embarrassed and adorably flustered.  I thought Aaron was wonderfully creative on his feet (so to speak.)
  - When Aaron called the brothers psychopaths as he observed them warming their hands over the burning Nazi.
  - I haven't seen the previews for next ep (I will once I come down a bit more), but I understand the brothers are each wearing GLASSES at one point.  *dies*
  - The brief acknowledgements of Cas and Garth (and by extension Kevin).  Acknowledging there is still issues/concerns there.  
  - I kinda like how they have not yet clued anyone else in on their secret lair.  (It's just for them.)
  - Did I mention I REALLY loved the music? and the scotch/whiskey and Dean in a robe with wet hair?  And Sam with the scotch/whiskey in his hand at the end?   (And Dean with his feet up.)   It all seemed just so...intimate.  lol.


So much love.  Welcome back Show!   :)

Not only was Dean in a robe with wet hair, but he had bare legs too. We don't get that much. I was trying to notice whether he had bare feet too but I may have missed it.

I love all the things you mentioned.

I want to explore the bat cave too!

He was wearing old-timey (old man) slippers. LOL.

I agree,K!!

Dean with wet hair....YUM!

The whole episode had so many things and as I sat there and watched, I kept thinking other shows use the same formula over and over and over and watching SPN is like opening a brand new present everytime. Sometimes the present you want to just put away on a shelf, but the majority you want to open and reopen and treasure every inch!

The brothers were in sync like they were last week and even the LARPing one. It is great seeing them like this for as long as it lasts! :D

That was THE BEST show we've had all season. The boys were BROTHERS!!!!! Not fighting, they had fun and quipped and Dean was multifaceted not just set to 'angry'. And Sam seemed so much more dimensional (and sweater vested) It was just EPIC, CLASSIC, SPN.
* TWIRLS HAPPILY * there, was that so hard Carver......???? Seriously?

PLUS!!!! Everything you said. You just covered all the EPIC wonderful stuff. The episode was full of it. From Dean dorking around with the sword to old fashioned bathrobe and slippers LOL! The flirty scene with the guy in the bar was hilarious. Classic Dean, the stud, miscommunication. Barny Miller did great. The two other guest stars, Aaron and his Golem were wonderful!!!!!!! Far better than a lot of the guest stars so far this season. Although Larp had some great guest stars in the sherif. I just hope they don't move Garth or Kevin into the bat cave. A little of each of them goes a very long way.

But they have a HOME!!!!!! and yeah I can see Dean updating the music LOL! Wonderful * SQUEEEE, FLAILLLLL, FALLING OVER *
