Well, I'm glad they finally killed off the British men of letters because those episodes was garbage and I hope the producers fire the people that wrote that shit.
"I hate you." I hated Mary for leaving his sons. I hated Mary for working with the BMoL and lying to his boys about it, but I liked that they made her character that way. I loved to see that Mary wasn't perfect, that she wasn't the lovely mom we've ways thought and we care about. And I guess that we, as the audience, have shouted it all season but seeing Dean say it was so hard. He wasnt wrong. Every decision Mary took, every choice she's ever made and any detailed she altered, has set the course of all their loves. So it makes sense that Dean acknowledged it. This has made them who they are and they are the heroes that save the world.
That ending was just beautiful. Damn ninjas cutting onions in my room. I sometimes forget how easily a simple scene in this show can make me weep. That three-way hug was the perfect way to end this episode. Despite their differences and ideas, they're family and nothing gets in-between that. BEAUTIFUL!
I knew reverse-engineer Mary was gonna be hard, especially for my Dean but I sure didn't expect to feel what I felt. Sure as hell I didn't expect that speech. When I saw their house in Lawrence I just died. That's where it all started and where all inevitably will end. Supernatural is a full circle and it'll end where it started. We just see Dean looking at baby Sammy and, oh, he was so cute. Those chubby cheeks! And then Dean as a kid, and Mary acting all lovingly while our Dean was just standing there claiming for her to come back to him, to just see him. It was hard but the moment he said "I hate you", he didn't break me. He just destroyed me utterly. My heart is just broken into pieces and I can't glue it back. The way his voice just breaks when he said "I hate you", my eyes were prepared to pour down water, uffff. That was heavy. "All of it was because of you". It hit me so hard, so, so hard. I had goosebumps all the way and although it was feels-killer, it was so damn good. I'm actually glad Dean uncorked the feelings he had bottled up for so long. He's always been his brother's keeper and every single time they leave him alone, like Mary did that night, and so did John. Being left alone is the worst thing I can think of for myself and seeing Dean revealing his feelings that way broke me into million of pieces. There's nothing more I can say about Jensen Ackles that I haven't ready said, but once again, he nailed the acting. He put in the rest. He's, honestly, the best actor in the show. The "I hate you. I hate you. And I love you" felt so real. I can't read his speech without breaking up cryingike a baby. That was one dramatic perfect display of double single man-tear. I can't forget the "I hate you" I swear I died. He was a ticking time-bomb and I knew he would let his feelings get loose eventually. But the feels. Please, stop with the feels.
Sam's speech gave me the goosebumps. Sammy as a leader was awesome. I especially loved his speech his speech because he realizes he's hiding behind Dean and stops himself in the process. He wants to make sure that the speech is coming from him and I swear I clapped the hell out of me at the end. Such arousing, emotional speech. And how can you make it better? With the old classic big brotherly Winchester hug®. And just WOW! I'm so surprised Dean just sent Sam into a fight all by himself. I never thought I'd see that one day. Talk about character development. And Jody/Alex interaction was so touching. "Kick it in the Ass".
Dean: "You come back".
Sam: "Promise"
Dean: "Bitch"
Sam: "Jerk".
I have no words to express what I felt at that moment. That hug. My goodness. Such a powerful bond. I'm drowning in my FEELS!
Before moving on to Dean's speech I just wanted to point out this: "You're lunatics. Action movie-loving, cheeseburger-eating, moronic American lunatics.". Yeah Lady Bevell, that's why we love them and why we always will.
Lowkey, I had stopped caring much for Mary. I loved the idea of their mom being brought back for the show, and understood she needed some time to herself to adjust, but she kept being so distant towards them, barely trying to create a bond with her kids. Add in the fact that she joined the guys who tortured her son, even if a “rogue agent” just smh. I liked the Mary that showed herself at the end though, I would like to see more of that. Still would have preferred John (or Bobby) being brought back though, but oh well.
Absolutely amazing and heartbreaking. My heart wasn't ready for this episode. I wasn't ready and it hit me right in the feels. I swear this episode should've been entitled "Fuck you in the feels". I swear if they had just stabbed me it would've hurt less.
But let's start in the beginning because I want to save Dean's speech for the very end. If anything, this season has been about Dean and the grenade launcher. I loved to see him finally use it and being such a badass too. The episode was consistent, from start to finish and it didn't disappoint. Seeing Dean so hurt broke me. That gathering with Jody and he looking at Mary like she was too far gone. Man, the feels again. My heart is cold and Jensen Ackles is one of the few actors that make me cry like a baby. I'm too emotionally fragile for this.
Lady Bevell's death shocked me. It's not like I didn't want her dead, but it was just upsetting and disturbing. Seeing her there, laying dead, throat right open minutes after stating that the only thing she wants is to be with her son again. It was just sad. Fortunately, that Ketch got what he deserved. That's what happens when you mess around with the Winchesters, you arrogant bastard! I loved that it was Mary the one who took him down. Loved Dean's quote "When you left us alone in the bunker, man, I knew you were a psycho, but I didn't know you were stupid". Amen.
When I saw Roy and Walt in the "THEN" section I was like wtf? What do these guys have to do with this? But then seeing them again was oddity satisfying. That hunter gathering was amazing. Such a powerful scene. Always Keep Fighting! Never give up and go down guns ablazing.
This entire episode felt like one of the boys was going to die die. Like permanently for good, not coming back.
I was tense the entire time.
This entire season wasn't on par with most others, and quite a let-down at times but this episode...
...it had some weak points, the whole raid could have been executed better film-wise, make it more interesting and less generic - which is actually what the entire BMoL feel like, especially whenever we hear the higher ups - generic.
But ... the moment when Dean talks to his mother who had hidden herself away from everything in her mind ... that was such a raw display of emotion that I have rarely seen on this show and it brought tears to my eyes. It did not feel generic, it felt heartfelt and complicated, loving and hating. It made up for every mediocre fighting scene in this episode, and Jensen Ackles' acting abilities completely surpassed my expectations there.
After the particularly "meh" last episode, this one took me quite by surprise and in a very, very good way.
Today's the day! Am I ready? Hell no, I'm not. I'm just scared the hell out. Please writers, don't touch Jody and don't even dare to touch Cas. I still wonder who that guy Can referred s "You" is going to be. I hope it's a hell of a surprise.
The writers have said this is going to be one of the most meta episodes they've done and that they are closing certain storyline right from the beginning. So wrapping all up and moving on to season 13. I know these two episodes are gonna hit me right in the feels so I don't know whether to be scared or excited, so I'll be both. I'm still thinking about Mark Pellegrino's tweet saying were all gonna hate it. And the promo from "All Along the Watchtower" does look like it.
The real deal is that I can't wait for this full-night Supernatural 2 in 1. Sleep depraved and all. I just don't care anymore.
All I want to do is take Rat!Crowley, Jody and Cas and run as far away as possible from this madness. When the episode is over they'd better be alive. I know Sam and Dean are going to suffer, but they're always suffering. I someone I care about dies I'm gonna be royally pissed off and I swear I'll riot.
I'm too hyped right now I think I could burn in internal combustion.
I'm not sure how they're going to recover this season at this point.
I am still not even sure who the big enemy is this season... the Men of Letters or Lucifer?
Super confusing.
This episode was beautiful. I missed the emotional scenes from Supernatural so much, it has been a long time since I have seen an episode as great as this one, it feels as if TV (and even the movies) is getting worse with time but Supernatural is still great and it looks like it isn't going to deteriorate any time soon which is probably the reason why the show is still on for its 13th season. But if you look at other CW shows you can see that they are all becoming very bad. Supernatural has always been my favorite show, I have watched all the episodes so many times. Jensen Ackles's acting is wonderful just like it has always been, and the scene with Mary brings back sad memories.
Great episode which is why it's disappointing that the episode after was just eh.

I just wanted to leave Dean's speech here:
"I hate you. You lied to me. I was a kid. You promised you'd keep me safe. And then you make a deal with Azazel. Yeah, it saved Dad's life, but I'll tell you something else that happened. Because on November 2, 1983, old Yellow Eyes came waltzing in to Sammy's bedroom because of your deal. You left us. Alone. 'Cause Dad was just a shell. His perfect wife? Gone. Our perfect Mom, the perfect family was gone. And I... I had go be more than just a brother. I had to be a father and I had to be a mother, to keep him safe. And that wasn't fair. And I couldn't do it. And you wanna know what that was like? They killed the girl that he loved. He got possessed by Lucifer. They tortured him in Hell. And he lost his soul. His soul. All because of you. All of it because of you. I hate you. I hate you. And I love you. 'Cause I can't... I can't help it. You're my Mom. And I understand 'cause I have made deals to save the ones I love more than once. I forgive you. I forgive you. For all of it. Everything. On the other side ofthis, we can start over, okay? You, me and Sam. We can get it right this time. But I need you to fight. Right now, I need you to fight. I need you... I need you to look at me, Mom. I need you to really look at me and see me. Mom, I need you to see me. Please."
