9x02
Devil May Care
So episode 9x02 Devil May Care… It was a good episode
and I love Abaddon and Alaina Huffman’s acting but I have this small problem
that started in Season 7. I found myself, way back then, not enjoying the
episodes that didn’t have Cas in them as much as the episodes with him in it. It
was the same with Season 8 and it looks like it’s going to be the same for
Season 9. I was hoping it wouldn’t but just judging it off this episode, that’s
exactly what is going to happen. But, it’s only the second episode so we’ll
see. Besides my not liking it as much as I would have if Cas was in it, I
thought it was great.
I love Crowley, like really, really
love his character (and Mark Sheppard plays him well). The line, “You really
put the S-A-M in S&M.” is awesome. I laughed so hard when he said that and
I’m probably the only one who thinks it’s that funny. I’m really glad that he
is still in the show. Now, I don’t know if it’s just me and something going
over my head, but I’m kind of confused on what he was talking about when he
gave those two demon names. I know he wants to compromise but for what? His
freedom? I’m probably just stupid and missed it…
I can’t believe Osric Chau is
twenty-seven… twenty-seven! He looks like a teenager when he is yelling at Dean
and Sam asking why Crowley isn’t dead. It works though since Kevin (I’m
assuming because he was getting ready for SAT’s and applying to college) that
he is eighteen or maybe nineteen at the oldest. So it works. I feel really bad
for Kevin. I can’t imagine wondering if the Demon in lockup is telling the
truth and that your mom is really alive. I love, love, love the fact that Dean
said he is family. He is family and I consider him, just like I considered
Bobby, part of Team Free Will. Also, I’ll admit, after Crowley calling Kevin
submissive, I really want a fanfic of Kevin being submissive. It can be with
anyone, even an OC, I just want it. ;)
When Ezekiel came forth with
glowing eyes and bright light and his falling apart wings! OMG! Coolest. Thing.
Ever! I especially liked the shadow of his wings. We’re so used to seeing Cas’
wings, all nice and full of feathers, but then you have after the fall with
Ezekiel’s wings and they’re falling apart. I just thought that looked amazing.
I also can’t get over how well Jared is playing Ezekiel’s character. I love it.
It’s even better than souless!Sam if you ask me.
I thought it was really funny how
when they were going to save the two hunters, Dean covered up his jewels with
his hand when Sam mentioned the chemicals. Then Sam’s comeback was awesome too,
saying that that wasn’t going to help. I also loved how fidgety Dean got when
Ezekiel mentioned love and Dean said, “I’m not really with the whole love and…
love.” I’m not going to read too much into it and I’m sure he said it because
of his deep seeded fear of everyone he loves leaving him, but when I heard Jensen
say that line, I immediately thought of Cas. I couldn’t help it, I just did.
Now, I want to just point something
out in the previews and it’s probably a given of what it is. The kiss between
Cas and April. When I first heard that Cas was going to be getting “a love
interest” (remember, Misha said love is a big word and it’s more like lust), I wasn’t
happy. I’m still not completely happy but I’m (hoping) not going to go
bat-shit-crazy because of it. I’m going to give her a shot before automatically
saying, “I don’t like her.” Who knows, maybe she’ll turn out to be a cool
character. However, just because Cas is getting “a love interest” doesn’t mean
I’m going to give up on Dean and Cas. I will go down with the ship no matter what
the writers do on the show. What I’m hoping is that Cas will be with her for
however long the writers want and we’ll get some jealous Dean, but in the end
Cas and Dean end up together. She’ll still be on the show though because she’ll
be a strong character. I doubt the latter (her staying and being a strong character) will happen, but who knows, maybe it
will. Maybe she’ll even become Sam’s next partner. Anyways, point is, I’m going
into 9x03 with optimism (and if you knew me, you would know I’m actually quite
pessimistic, so me being optimistic is a big deal) and I’m going to hope for
the best.
