SPN 2X10 Hunted

oh boy this seems like it’s gonna be more Plot, but like...weird

why is it like this

also i still can’t believe I quoted Billy Joel on a college form what the heck

oh look some guy named Scott

he’s probably did isn’t he

of course he electrified the neighbor’s cat

Why are all of these fuckers so evil oh my god

Ah “he” wants me to, so they’re being controlled/compelled, so that’s partially how they’re getting manipulated

yes I kinda knew that but still, nice to have it reiterated 

ok the reflection in the car’s windows was a pretty cool shot though

Ah and back to the “what did John tell Dean” thing

See now I understand the not killing John till season 2 thing, just to start the whole plot

Dean’s plan to just run, so he doesn’t have to kill his brother o o f 

the “I deserve it,” do not fuel your fucking victim complex bud

dammit Sam who’s car are you stealing

aight, maybe it’s just my “abandoned lights after dark” brain, but there are some genuinely good shots in this show

kinda a pity the storyline goes 

ope Sam just exploded

oh hey Ellen, I’m glad they’re still talking

...and Jo went to go hunting

oh there’s scott

“I’m trying to find who i am” aof;hsso god I hate protagonist-boy storylines so much

I mean to be fair, Dean is a bit stifling 

I’m honestly just glad we still get the roadhouse

ooo collage of yellow eyed things

wait i vaguely recognize the girl, does she keep showing up?

Ellen: “screw that” I love Ellen

oh hey the girl is from Peoria, I’ve been there I think

my SAT was there

Ok, Sam having to break in while Ava keeps trying to distract is genuinely funny

THE POP ROCKS AND SODA AS A SUICIDE ATTEMPT AND THE GUY’S JAW CLENCH

Aw and she likes the CriMe

“Oh thank god you’re ok” aw that’s his first thought

“you’re better than ok” D E A N 

oh wait it’s the hunter from bloodlust 

“dude...WHO ARE YOU” listen, I actually really like Ava

oHO Dean’s being held captive

ah and they have a code word for if someone has a gun on him

“That’s my mom you’re talking bout” *Dean smirks*

ah he was trying provoke him, it was fun they both kinda smiled

that whole thing where they’re trying to outbluff and outplan each other is really fun

wait why didn’t Ava mention the tripwire dammit Ava

ah so Dean’s doubling down cuz it hits way too close to home

is this where we get the “fuck destiny” thing? is this where that starts

“you’re not the man he is” must have hit huh

oh there’s the explosion

and another one

oof poor dean

please tell me he used the smoke as a smokescreen

HE DID!

ok I like that

k so Sam holding the gun with the bloody face and the cast? good good i like that, good shot

not killing him? rEALLY?

Dean: looks at Sam and INSTANTLY goes rage protective mode 

that’s kinda sweet 

not healthy but sweet

WHY IS HE HOLDING THE GUN SIDEWAYS

Sam?? called the cops? oh?

ah anonymous tip

god I love the “hunters with their own connections” things at the roadhouse I LOVE THE ROADHOUSE

Sam ALREADY: watcha gonna do? kill me?

Dean: TOO F U CK I NG SOON SAMMY

“I don’t believe in that destiny crap” there we go

“I can try” “thanks for that” aw

biTch jErk :)

oh good they’re going to Peoria

do you know what’s in peoria? NOTHING

ah the fiancé?

ah he dead and Ava gone

Ok ok wrap-up:

1. Listen, Listen. The fucking tonal argument of “Sam is the savior and pure and must be good” and “piece of shit(affectionate) little brother that is a hunter” is SO FUCKING..JUST GIVE HIM AN INTERESTING STORY LINE! THAT ISN’T MURDER BAD! WE ALREADY KNOW MURDER BAD! FDHIOADF

ok in all seriousness(and I did see a TIkTok about this, but I had this point anyway), they make Sam be the Protagonist Boi, but then just...don’t give him any character traits because people make protagonists bland for Maximum Projection. And yeah, maybe that works in movies, but this is a long running serial, and what’s more, Sam is a potentially interesting character that, for being technically the protagonist, gets NOTHING to work with! Like, Dean has so many different complex things going on in his head(most of them bad, but still complex and interesting!! SUSPENSEFUL!) and Sam gets nothing and it’s so annoying. I’m lead to believe it doesn’t get better either, which bleh

2. the lore wasn’t really lore in this episode. I did like Ava. I don’t like that she gets fridged, but she was a really fun character, and I would like to see more of her. But like, not as bait or being sad. Just her doing vague Crime things, that was really fun.

3. ...the hunter from the weirdly(badly) done allegory for something is back, I wonder who you aren’t supposed to root for

listen, I wanna make a comment about how the way this show handles morality(and writing in general) insults my intelligence, but AGAIN, I did choose to start this show AFTER it ended, and I saw the ending, and the stories from all the fans in general, so maybe I am just That Dumb. Kripke Played me and I Deserve it

4. Getting a little tired of all the Jesus and Demons. But it’s the Midest. That’s where they live. Please dear god let the next one not be a plot episode

5. stan the roadhouse, both for worlbuilding and vibe. stan ellen, stan ash, and stan the motherfucking roadhouse

aight that should do it. Turns out I have more Hot Takes than I thought
