#SPN 01x11

[orpheustiel]

i'm rewatching 01x11 you've got a friend and lol this lata storyline is so..... there's nothing there? it's almost funny. her WORST MEMORY the thing that's making the bracelete KILL her and carlos is that...she feels compassion? empathy? that her parents sucked? the way lata's acting like this is the worst thing ever doesn't really match the story.

Totally forgot Meg had a weird and inconsistent semi-British accent on her first appearance. For the vibes, I guess?

[charcoalowl]

Can't believe supernatural really said "Sometimes the mere memory of the family you used to have is enough to drive you away from people who actually love you." "Some people were born to serve, but service alone does not make a family, compassion and love does" and "You cannot give someone love and compassion only so that they can destroy themselves for you. Sacrifice is not a foundation for family. Sacrifice is not a foundation for family."

All in the same episode.

Episode 1x11

“Dean, why you so gay?”

She’s 15 and 11 episodes in. Lol. 😂

SPN 01x11 Scarecrow

It's interesting how knowing future events can influence how you see old episodes. There's so much to unpack in this one. Read below for my thoughts on the characters and motivations in this episode.

John Winchester: In his call with Sam we find out he knows what killed Mary and Jessica was a Demon. This is the first we know if it and it seems to me he's recently come into this knowledge. He specifically tells Sam that he can't be a part of this. Does he know Sam is on the demon's radar? Missouri told him back on Home that his boy has power, but later in the season, he admonishes them for not telling him about Sam's power. How much does he actually know?

Dean Winchester: We really see the conflict between Sam and Dean with Sam's question everything and Dean's obey everything personalities. But even Dean admits later on that he wishes he could be more like Sam in that regard. More importantly, we see that struggle to hold onto Sam when Sam decides to leave for California. You can see how much he doesn't want that and it lends itself beautifully to the notion that when first picking him up from Stanford, Dean stood outside his dorm for hours. Dean is very dependent on his family and with his Dad MIA, Sam's all he's got. However, he realizes that he needs to allow Sam his freedom and is willing to let him go. Was he so willing when Sam went to Stanford? I would say not simply because Dean's speech in Scarecrow surprised Sam.

Sam Winchester: This episode really cements Sam's motivations that carry through the entire series. When John calls, his focus is on getting revenge, hunting the demon that killed Jessica. He refuses to obey John and is frustrated by John's willingness to leave him out. He's also quite willing to leave Dean behind and go his own way. He's done this before when he went to Stanford, though that was for an independent, normal life. This time, it's for revenge. In the call with Dean in the bus station, though, Sam realizes that Dean's letting him go. He's given that autonomy from his family that I don't think he ever had before. It helps him realize what's actually important and we get this gem of a conversation with Sam embracing the hunting life for the very first time. He continues to embrace it throughout the entire series as long as Dean is with him.

(Because I'm terrible finding GIFs, I'll just put this in text, though if someone has it, please share!)

Dean: So, can I drop you off somewhere?

Sam: Nah, I think your stuck with me.

Dean: What made you change your mind?

Sam: Still wanna find Dad, and you're still a pain in the ass, but Jess and Mom, their both gone. Dad is God knows where, you and me, we're all that's left. So, uh, if we're gonna see this through, we're gonna do it together.

Bonus (for all you wincesties out there):

Dean: Hold me, Sam, that was beautiful.

Sam: You should be kissing my ass...

Final notes: This is our first introduction to Meg. She seemed to playing the long con, but her conversation at the end confused me because she talks about how she could 'take both of them out'. We know that's not what's supposed to happen, so I'm not entirely clear on her marching orders.

Parallels Scarecrow and Carry On

You’ve always known what you want. And you go after it. You stand up to Dad. And you always have. Hell, I wish I—anyway….I admire that about you. I’m proud of you, Sammy.

Spn 1x11 Scarecrow

I'm so proud of you, Sam. You know that? I've always looked up to you. Man, when we were kids, you were so damn smar... smart. You never... You never took any of dad's crap. I never knew how you did that.

there’s so much going on in this ep that you’ll just get a lot of incoherent yelling. ok? ok

purple dog shirt!

they’re sleeping in separate beds but still as close to each other as they can, they’re almost falling off the edge

feels like jensen’s really found dean by this ep. jared might still be searching for sam a little, but it might also be just that early sam is such a volatile entity

“yeah it’s called being a good son” oh my god dean way to punch below the belt

i love how contradictory dean is. he knows he can’t live without his brother and what does he do? acts on an angry impulse and leaves him by the side of the road in the middle of the night. i bet he regrets that decision the second he starts the car but he’s too stubborn to turn around and admit defeat

tiny details i enjoy: dean being forced to look up at an authority figure or someone who holds temporarily power over him. later in the orchard there’s a moment where he also gets this very particular blank look on his face that i find so fascinating, a kind of quiet defiance when he knows he’s helpless

the phone call! it’s so much. sam’s involuntary smile when dean calls him “my trusty sidekick geek boy”. dean’s inability to apologize and sam’s willingness to immediately forgive him anyway, and the way dean forces himself to say he’s proud of sam, forces himself to let sam go, and he wants to admit he wishes he could be more like sam but he can’t or he would crumble. there’s so much chemistry and they’re not even in the same room!

dean is so delighted to hear sam stole a car to get to him. sam might as well said he loves him

the way dean oh so casually asks if he can drop sam off somewhere, the way he holds himself in check so tightly, like he doesn’t dare to hope sam’s actually staying with him even while sam is saying just that, and sam is honest but kind of off-handed about it, too, like maybe if he says it quickly enough it’s not this enormous thing that it is. and dean has to make a joke out of it, otherwise he would explode, but the way he says “hold me sam” with his voice all high and breathy, he’s joking but he’s also 100% serious

and then! jensen’s acting choices! 

dean first puts his hand on sam’s shoulder, but then moves it up to touch sam’s cheek! it only happens in dean’s coverage, the hand is safely back on sam’s shoulder when we see him slap it away. it’s a slight continuity error, but i’m headcanoning it as dean almost touching sam’s cheek but chickening out at the last second and slapping his hand on sam’s shoulder instead

whoops these posts keep getting longer. i might need to rein myself in a bit

[something-super-not-natural]

I'm currently rewatching season 1 of Supernatural and not for nothing, but I'm so shipping Sam/Meg in Scarecraw...

Like, they are so cute.

[ladyluscinia]

I also love that we established umbrellas are gay a few episodes ago. And now the evil town meeting takes place entirely under umbrellas.

Umbrellas are gay AND the cowards' evil 😌
