Me neither, Jack. In fact I hate it. I'm still so damn angry and I feel like this anger will never go away.
Supernatural always comes as hurtful, frustrating and heartbreaking, but tonight it reached a new limit.
"Lies" has always been SPN's surname. I normal get really upset when they keep the truth away from one another, but in tonight's episode, it felt different.
The whole sequence with Jack getting into the box was so damn unsettling. I was on the edge of my seat those whole 11 last minutes. Half heartbroken, half terrified. And then, he just gets into the box. No questions asked, blindingly doing whatever they ask him for.
I loved the callback to Dean's nightmare. Jack inside the box with the phone, although I thought we might see his bloody nails. Still, very nicely done.
I get the feeling the boys are gonna learn the same lesson Chuck did. Punishing your children doesn't make them better. And soon, Sam and Dean are gonna learn it, especially Dean.
Jack's willingness to do anything for them. Oh my Chuck! I swear I just want to open the window and scream. I seriously adore him! It made me so damn angry that they gave up on him so soon when he's family. They should feel terrible after seeing how much he trusts them. He's the sweetest, nicest, kindest, most naive character I've ever seen on TV and all he needs is to be protected.
Saying it was heartbreaking falls short. Watching him calling out to them destroyed me. The same with Sam's reaction to the box being locked. You could feel his burden there.
Something in the way he prayed reminded me of that famous "If there's a key...then there must also be a lock" from The French Mistake. They're professional liars, and yet, you could actually see they were lying to him. They were also terrified. Amazing acting on the behalf!
I'm damn glad Cas dared to be so assertive. It's time for him to go all mama bear and fight for his kid.
I'm so angry at Dean. I hated him. Not that I don't understand his motives, but I hate hom for what he did. Not only for lying to Jack to get him into the box, but also for dragging Sam along with him. And you know what's even worse? That he didn't even feel remorseful.
Dean acted numb the whole episode. I get why. I understand how he felt about losing his mom again, especially when she was everything he's ever wanted. But his lack of guilt sealed it for me. And I'm saying this when I always side with Dean, 100%.
I'm so protective if that kid. I just want to hug him. He's a little ball of love and innocene. He deserves everything good that happens to him, and he doesn't deserve to be betrayed, less still from his own family.
After this episode, I swea I don't even care about how they fix Jack's soul. Use magic, find a long lost relative, maybe Sam's lost show which turned magical, make him a jedi, I don't care, but just tell me he's gonna be ok.
I found it heartwarming that the boys had a wakefor Mary, but with all the hunters there, all I was thinking was: "Who are those peopel?" and then Bobby came, Bobby-style. I thought the writers forgot about him! I found it strange that he didn't appear when Mary died. However, his presence in the episode felt forced. He came in, killed a wraith and told Cas to go back to school. I've complained before that I didn't differenciate our Bobby from Alt!Bobby, but our Bobby would've never tried to kill Jack.
"God writes paperback books in his underwear, okay? And angels are dicks". There it goes. Directly to my "out of context lines" folder.
By the way, the ending shot was golden. This is the second time I've been terrified of Jack. Being the ending of season 12 the first one. The smoke, the eyes, the anger...what a cliffhanger!
Next episode's title is already giving me anxiety. "Moriah". THe season isn't gonna end well, we all know that. I just hope Dean comes to his senses and realizes that what he's doing, although perfectably understandable, is not the right way. I can see him about to kill Jack and Chuck appearing right in time to avoid the sacrifice. I don't believe for a second they're gonna kill Jack (I'm never forgiving the writers if it happens), but I know we're gonna suffer.
