On the lastest episode of Supernatural the boys deal with a witch that de-ages the victims.
This is a weird one. It's not a bad episode, and we definitely needed some humour after the heavy tones of previous episodes, but all in all the plot is very forgettable.
This is going to be a bit shorter than my usual Supernatural posts so that I can start working on last night's episode. From the beginning then. Dean is getting so scared of the Mark and of himself that he is not even leaving the bunker anymore, but spends his time reading the lore books. Sam is so amazing in this scene. He has such faith in Dean and tries to convince him that he can beat this and that it is safe for him to go outside. One thing though, Sam, did you really think Dean could forgive himself for what he did to Charlie? This is Dean we're talking about, who blames himself for everything, who Osiris almost killed because of his guilt. Dean is never going to forgive himself.
It's nice to see Dean have a normal conversation with someone, even if it is bonding over crappy childhoods. This is what Dean needs! Normalcy and having fun. And I like Tina, she deserves the second chance she got.
Oh my god, a teenage Dean! And Dylan Everett is back on the role! I absolutely adored his portrayal of Dean in 'Bad Boys' and he is amazing here as well. More flashbacks with him, please? Although, I have to say that making Dean younger serves no other purpose than a few laughs. Sure, the humour was needed but couldn't the writers give more weight to it?
Is this the first time Dean himself has admitted that he is an alcoholic? Yes, the alcohol issues are obvious and part of his characterization, but I think this is the first time he has straight up admitted what he really is.
The look on Sam's face when he realises Dean is a teenager is priceless. It makes me laugh so much.
Why bother mentioning Rowena if you're only killing the witch sent after her? The writers could have gone somewhere with that plot instead of just bringing it up for no reason. Okay, the Grand Coven is probably not going to stop chasing after Rowena, but still.
Jensen in teenage Dean's clothing is a hilarious sight.
The final scene makes me very happy. Other characters (Sam, Bobby, probably John) have often shamed Dean for liking things he "shouldn't" like (LARPing) or being upset over things he clearly has a reason to be upset over. So you have no idea how happy it makes me that when Taylor Swift started playing and Sam was looking at Dean and trying to be all "dude, no" and Dean just went "fuck that, I like this and there is nothing wrong with that". That was beautiful.
