SPN Season 15 Spoiler Sheet, update 10/3

Lots and lots of updates abound. I took out some old general stuff because this monster is huge (but it will only get shorter, sniff sniff) Spoilery goodness under the cut.

DISCLAIMER: This is gathered info from various sources. This is not confirmed information. Stuff in this WILL be wrong. Don’t take this too seriously. This is for fun. Also, if you use this info for another publication, please let me know as a courtesy. Don’t be a dick. It's all out there, but it hurts to see my same phrasing on other publications after all the work I’ve done to consolidate it…

General Info (oldest to newest). This is a blend of pre-COVID and post COVID, so some might change.

In an interview, Kripe indicated that the series ending would have “peace” for Sam and Dean

Misha will be in 15 out of 20 episodes this season (he’s missed 3 so far and I suspect will miss 14. Unclear about 16, 19, and 20).

Dean and Amara’s connection will be explored

JaxCon/Vegas Con spoilers:

Misha said the ending was “happier than he expected” but also had some sadness. He later used “sad and redemptive”

Misha mentioned that Claire will be mentioned on the show, but as of yet not appear.

Dean says the line “stop killing my people” (to god?)

Jensen said he doesn’t see how the story could continue past this season, but Jared said its more of “a see you later”

Al Cal posted a pic of a “thrown away” call sheet that seem to indicate Micheal, Lucifer, and a character named “Betty” interacting in the bunker. Unclear as to the validity, could be from 19 based on casting

Charlie (original flavor) will return

Filming resumed on Aug 18th. Per Canadian policy, they must quarantine for two weeks. Those quarantining seemed to include:

Fairly Clear: Jared, Jensen, Jake Abel (Micheal), Rob Benedict (Chuck/God) Mark Pelligrino (Lucifer), Al Cal (didn't need to quarantine, but he is definitely on set), Jim Beaver (Bobby)

Unclear/Rumored: Misha (he is being deliberately cagey), Osric Chau (Kevin- but likely for another project, he was a week ahead of everyone else)

Reasons Unlikely: Sam Smith (chemo treatment), Kim Rhodes (working at a camp during quarantine), Ruth Connell (posted from Malibu the entire time)

No idea: Shoshannah Stern

Jensen said sp 19 is more of a season finale, while 20 is a series finale. Repeated in interviews/livestreams.

Megan Fitz. complimented both Dabb’s and Glynn’s writing on twitter. Not sure if it is in reference to rewrites or the special retrospective that is planned.

Jensen indicated that the ending did change per COVID protocols. Later interviews (Variety) confirmed this, but it seemed to indicate the changes were in regards to how many people filmed at once (crowd scenes, recurring characters returning)

Misha is being very, very cagey about where he was. Some live streams seem to indicate he is not at home, but he has yet to confirm- his presence in 19/20 is hard to track. In an interview with Metaverse, he was in bed in a hotel looking space and you could see mountains in the background. He was not on set for the first week of filming, so he could be a week behind.

Misha has thrown around the words “final” and “what he <Misha> would have wanted” per Cas’ ending. “Sad/Proud” and “poignant” were also used. His latest line is “sad but satisfying”

The final episodes will premier October 8th. The finale will air Nov 19th in conjunction with an hour long special.

Dabb confirmed to TV line the episode 19/20 explanation Jensen’s mentioned- For the most part, we wrap up a big chunk of our mythology in Episode 19,Episode 20 is more character-based and is more concerned with Sam, Dean and this family they’ve built around them than it is with figuring out the Case of the Week.

When talking about the lightheartedness of returning on ep 14, Dabb said deeply depressing and upsetting episodes are coming (USAToday). He also said we would see “new sides” of Jack, Cas, and Billie. A revisit of Chuck and Amara’s “sibling issues” as well is on tap. Jared said sacrifices are coming.

From TV Line- re the battle with Chuck. Allies will return, buit was repeated several times in the article that is comes down to Sam and Dean. Jack will struggle with getting his soul back but will be helped by Cas.

It was confirmed there will be no appearances by mamma and papa Winchester, possible due to COVID. (TVLine)

A trailer was released on 8/27. Scenes included:

A moving speech from Sam to Dean

(Possibly from 18) A teary conversation between Dean and Cas

Injured Dean being helped by Cas in the bunker

Jack breaking some cuffs/bring thrown into a wall/saying he has to kill god

More of Dean and his nightgown

Looks like we get Dean in a robe!

They filmed at Rooster’s Sunrise Hotel for 3 days/nights

This is the flashback ep

From TVLine- “It worked not only as a case right now, but also as something that informed the journey Sam and Dean have taken, where they started as kids, how they kind of came together and then how that has [led up] to the point that they are, emotionally, when the episode airs. So it ended up being a really good reflection of our guys now, telling a story about our guys then, which, to me, are always the best versions of those types of flashback stories.”

An really emotional scene was filmed with Misha and Jensen. Jared was definitely not there, but Alex was on the flight they took with Rich, so its possible he was too. This was revealed at a con in which the four of them were on a plane that had an in-flight problem.

Filming watchers saw a bro hug

Guest stars: Jake Abel (Micheal), Mark Pelligrino (Lucifer)

Other Spoilers/info:

Production shut down as a precaution for coronavirus on 3/13, two days into filming. It is scheduled to start again on Aug 18th.

Jensen indicated there might be some re-writes for this ep to account for COVID protocols.

When they started filming, they indicated they were on day two. So maybe they could only use some of the scenes they shot? Then they added an extra day all called it day 9. COVID protocols makes things take longer

AlCal was definitely on set.

Jake Abel is definitely on set, and he posted an instagram story with his trailer and Lucifer’s (Mark Pelligrino)

Some filming was done at a gas station called Showalter’s (name of the director) with Jared, Jensen, and Alex

Jake “Spoiler King” Abel filmed a video showing chairs for Jared, Jensen, and Alex as well as Rob Benedict (Chuck/God). They were filming near a lake with a mountain view (that looked similar to where Cas died in season 13)

Rob Benedict posted it was his last day in Vancouver, indicating we won't see Chuck past this episode? Or very very briefly in 20? Jake Abel posted a similar message, also baiting fans about Misha’s whereabouts

Scene “28” took several days and seemed to go across both 19 and 20? So they might have done some combo filming?

Episode 15x20

Title: Carry On

Guest stars: Jim Beaver

Other Spoilers/info:

Jensen indicated filming would take two weeks, longer than usual (looks like a 9 day shoot, with a day off for Labor Day)

According to Superwiki, 9/3 was the last day on the bunker set, the final days are on location.

Scene “28” took several days and seemed to go across both 19 and 20? So they might have done some combo filming?

Filming locations seemed to include a barn (pic with a stunt guy showed wooden walls and straw) and a lake (not the mountain lake from 19), and a forest. Filming signs spotted at Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve.

Jim Beaver confirmed his appearance on Twitter

There was a pic of J2 with baby on a bridge. Baby had her original plates. They seem to be wearing the same clothes they were in the pilot. There may be grey (??) In their hair, but that could be lighting

Misha posted some creation videos, saying he had been on an impromptu camping trip. He was back in his house. They were posted on the last day of filming and he had pretty decent scruff. He also mentioned that it was the last day of filming and he wasn't up there.

The show officially wrapped at 6:25 on 9/10

Jared said “the last time Sam and Dean see each other is the last time Jared and Jensen film together” but seem to imply that was not the final scene? It was a confusing answer to a question about filming the final scene.

IMDB credits a vampire?

SH:7/ML/E/18/0017

at Wakefield - Bradley not a man to be depended on - very idle - never right in his estates - not fit to be an architect except a soft stone country - not fit for stone like ours - once gave F- an order for a portico (Corinthian capitals etc) estate £20 and F- told him he could not get the work done under £25 let alone price of stone - I said this would never do for me - mentioned my intention of making Northgate house into a good Inn - F- thought it would answer very well - he mentioned Johnstone of Lichfield, and also Potter an elderly man (also of Lichfield) very clever who built Stafford jail and infirmary - but Mr. Bernard Hartley aetatis about 55 of Pontefract (employed for the country) one of the most honest men to be found - he might be interested implicitly - Jesse Hartley of Liverpool brother to Bernard also an architect - Mr. Thomas Lees of Cheetham hill, Manchester, a very clever man, but not quite to be taken of his word - F- did not know of any engineer - said Rag Covers from 4 to 6 in. thick enough to be carted by Mark Hepworth e.g. and delivered (from F-‘s Northowram quarry) at Denmark engine pit at 2/3 per superficial yard - 9 square ft. = 1 superficial yard .:. a goit 5ft. wide (i.e. requiring bottoms of 6ft. long) would take 1 ½ superficial yards per yard in length - therefore my 5ft. wide goit will cost ¾ ½ per yard in length for bottoms - suppose the goit costs 12/-

Bottoms per linear yard = 3.4 ½

Tops ditto ditooo = 3.4 ½

Side walling stones = 1.0 ?

Labour walling and digging = 4.0

11.9

per yard – and the arched part might not cost more for F- would have me buy field wall stones (by the lump) for it

this hearing about Bradley is terrible - but it is well, nothing is absolutely began - I must look about me for somebody else - what a pity so much time has been lost! - note this morning from Mr Parker with my bill and cash account and papers of my field purchased of Mr S. Washington and a deed relating to the Staups purchase - ‘Mr Mitchell called this morning and proposed fixing a price upon the lower George when he had seen Mr Bateman’ - I should have returned some answer this evening as Mr P- is going to London tomorrow but for matter escaped my memory - nice letter from lady Stuart de R- impossible to say what will be done - Lord Grey has failed to make a ministry ditto Lord Melbourne - ‘if Lord Lansdowne excludes Lord Bingham and chances to give office to O’ Connell, I think he will be more mad than the ex. chancellor’ - Lady S- de R- will be out of London at Easter for a week ‘and then must be back to present Louisa! who is really grown up I hope, or she will be too tall - she and Charlotte and papa all desire kind remembrances and believe me very truly yours E. Stuart de Rothesay’ -

my letter to V- merely a kind letter of congratulation on the birth of the young laird - and my letter to lady Stuart merely thanks for her telling me so immediately of V-‘s confinement and affectionate inquires after and hopes about Lady S-‘s own health - her letter had alarmed me and prepared me in some sort for the melancholy political news of the resignation of minsters -

LUCILLE BALL IS ON THE WARPATH

January 15, 1973

By ELAINE SHEPARD, HOLLYWOOD (WNS)

Faint-hearted TV and film executives had better start circling the wagons. Lucille Ball is on the warpath.

Lucy never does anything by halves, and is feisty enough to take on the whole show business establishment. She has become one of the television industry's richest, most influential leaders, and she has a very personal set of moral weights and measures.

"A lot of dirty old men have been on a ragged, jagged toot of making money and pandering to an audience's basest instincts. As soon as they are not making money which is happening already those pictures will sit in the vault.”

"I know my audience is still out there so I'm not worried. But it's a terrible thing as a mother or father to try to shape your children morally and in every other way and have it torn down in one short season of movie-going. Because once they are 15 and a certain height they are allowed in to the theatres and everything they were taught to believe in is ripped apart. All this permissiveness has put tremendous responsibility on young people's shoulders. At least you and I had guidelines. Now they are not even allowed a conscience that tells them right from wrong."

Tacky pictures are something to be avoided like drafts and bad cooking, says Lucy. "At home, I've stopped many movies in the middle and sent guests and projectionists home.”

"Violence has gone beyond the bounds of tolerance. Today's films leave the young people in a spiritual wasteland. No direction. Everything is dirty, smelly, icky, lousy. They should have something to hope for, to dream about. We need a little fantasy. Not just sexual fantasies. We give them no hope any place."

Lucy was one of the first to demolish forever the cliché that beauty and brains are incompatible. Her energy is atomic. Smoking cigarettes at a cancerous rate, she was on the phone arranging last-minute details for her 80-year-old carrot - topped mother, Dede, to go fishing in Colorado. "My condominium is at 9,800 feet. You should see Dede going down the mountain with the kids on a belly-whacker at 40 miles an hour."

Tall and handsome Gary Morton says his 11-year alliance with Lucille is "the most wonderful thing that ever happened to him." It is a marriage that hums. You can sense the little waves of approval and the love arrows going back and forth. He gave Lucy a white juiced-up golf cart with her name on the door to carry her around the Universal Studios lot. Gary is executive producer of "Here's Lucy." This season represents his wife's 22nd year as a major CBS Television Network star.

With every rung of the theatrical ladder greased and the most slippery one at the top, Lucille keeps her watchful big blue eyes on 21-year-old daughter Lucie, a costar on the program. "She is quite serious about her career."

Lucie and her brother Desi IV (20 this month) have been raised with every advantage that wealth and love could provide. "Their father (Desi Arnaz III) is proud of them. He has a Moroccan palace in Baja. The kids, including Liza Minelli, visit them there. My son loves Liza very much and so do we. I knew her before I knew my own children. Our family is so close now it hurts. Very close. So close that the telephone bills from Desi's movie locations in Japan and Israel are astronomical."

She has no plans to retire. "I don't know what I'm going to do from one minute to the next. When it's time to make a decision I make it. I don't feel any need to change the comedy format. Response from the fans indicates it works."

How did movie standards get twisted? "Some producers have been given so much rope they are hanging themselves. A lot of pornographic stuff is going begging. We have good directors but no big studios with jobs for them. No 'papas' around anymore; nobody to set standards and give direction. Among the exceptions in this town are Disney and Ross Hunter. I say 'thank God' for them."

Former waitress, soda jerk, wholesale garment model and chorus girl, Lucy became the first woman president of a major Hollywood film producing company (Desilu Productions) with an estimated annual gross of $25,000,000. In 1967 she sold her interest in Desilu to Golf & Western Industries and is a substantial shareholder in that financial empire.

In 1968 she formed Lucille Ball Productions. Headquarters is rented from Universal Studios. "I am happy to be a tenant and not interested in being a big tycoon anymore. We will create new TV programs, specials and movies."

We didn't discuss Women's Lib. For Lucy is Women's Lib personified.

She also is Auntie Mame. The movie starts this month, will make a fortune for Warner Bros., and be a coronation for the queen of comedy.

Monday, January 15, 1973, also saw the premiere of “Lucy and Her Genuine Twimby” (HL S5;E17) guest-starring Robert Cummings.

On the same date, UPI reported that “Here’s Lucy” would return for a sixth season, marking Ball’s 23rd year on TV. Coincidentally, the following item reports that Lucy’s friend and frequent co-star Mary Wickes would recreated her Broadway and film role in a television version of “The Man Who Came To Dinner” for Hallmark Hall of Fame.

[January 15, 1973, was also just before production began on the film musical Mame. Joan Crosby reported on the press event.]

It was like the old days of Hollywood. The red carpet was laid at Studio One at The Burbank Studios (nee Warner Brothers) and 200 people showed up for lunch with Lucille Ball and the cast of "Mame," the day before production.

Lucy made a great entrance in her silver-and-black outfit, with long earrings, cigarette holder to match, close cropped black hair and tightly wound silver turban. If you wonder why Mame couldn't be, like Lucy, a redhead. Lucy says a lot of thought went into the color, which will be used in the early scenes. Before the 20 years of Maine's life are finished she will also be seen as a blonde, redhead and finally, blue-tinted, silver-haired lady. Told that it's hard to get used to her with dark hair, Lucy smiled and said, "I can't get used to me, either."

Lucy will have about 45 costume changes in the musical, which delights her and should please the ladies.

Robert Fryer, who is co-producer of "Mame," said they needed an actress for the role who was "chic, humorous, warm and loving," and Lucy mugged her way through that.

Lucy said she was delighted to do "Mame" because it is "a four-letter word and so is love, so is care and so is hope." She added that so many films today lack these qualities. "Also, they don't give us anything to hum unless you want to come out of the theater humming a manure pile."

Lucy introduced costars Robert Preston, Bea Arthur (who played Vera on Broadway and will recreate it here), Jane Connell, the original Agnes Gooch, and darling Kirby Furlong; who will turn 10 during production.

Kirby, who is very small for his age, was wearing a tuxedo and director Gene Saks said, "Kirby always dresses that way. He gets up in the morning and jumps into his tux." Kirby laughed.

Meanwhile, in other papers, Mame’s casting was reported, concentrating on adult Patrick, played by Bruce Davison. The release incorrectly lists Madeline Kahn, who was initially cast as Gooch, but left the production, reportedly due to a conflict with Lucille Ball.

Supernatural Season 15 was confirmed by The CW back in January 2019, obviously to no one’s surprise. However, it turns out that the Winchesters aren’t going to live forever, since we would later learn that said fifteenth season will be the final one for the long-running genre series, set for a 20-episode run. Believe it or not, Supernatural is the longest-running genre series in American broadcast television history. The series is also the last remaining vestige of The WB network, which merged with UPN in 2006 to create The CW network as we know it today.

The latest news? Supernatural Season 15 is back from a covid-driven hiatus for its final episodes.

You can read our review of the latest episode here.

Stars Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, and Misha Collins released this video message to the fans following the big announcement of the show’s final season.

Of course, Jensen Ackles (Dean) and Jared Padalecki (Sam) are back for the final run, as is Misha Collins (Castiel). But what about Jeffrey Dean Morgan, whose long-gone John Winchester returned for the series’ 300th episode?

There’s no word on whether we can count on one more apperance from Papa Winchester, but Morgan had this to say on Twitter about the final season being announced:

— Jeffrey Dean Morgan (@JDMorgan) March 26, 2019

Here’s to hoping we get to see him back on the show one more time.

Supernatural Season 15 Trailer

A trailer for the collective back-half of Supernatural’s fifteenth and final season has arrived, previewing the ultimate endgame of the venerable CW staple. On an interesting note, the song used in the clip is “Drowning” by Radio Company, which features co-star Jensen Ackles himself on vocals.

That trailer was preceded last fall by the one immediately above, appropriately titled “Last Ride,” which served as an overall preview for the front-half of Supernatural’s final season.

Supernatural Season 15 Plot

As executive producers Robert Singer and Andrew Dabb said of the final season (and its eventual resolution,) in a statement:

“Firstly, we would like to thank all the people who have been involved with the show both in front of and behind the camera. For us it has been an experience of a lifetime. The support we have had from both Warner Bros Television and The CW has been incredible. We’d like to give special thanks to Jensen, Jared and Misha for making this journey so special. It is now most important to us to give these characters that we love the send off they deserve.”

Of course, Supernatural has a lot of loose ends to tie up, and we’re not just talking about what happened in the Season 14 finale. With more than a decade of storytelling to conclude, how will showrunner Andrew Dabb go about it?

As Dabb previously told Entertainment Weekly:

cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });

“God was not kidding when he said it was the end of this story. And by the end of this story, it means the end of the world. The question of what that looks like, the question of how Sam and Dean deal with that, I think those are the big things that we’re going to explore going into season 15.”

And Carried Me Away: Ch. 6

Chapter 1|| Chapter 2|| Chapter 3|| Chapter 4|| Chapter 5|| Chapter 6||

Chapter 7|| Chapter 8|| Chapter 9|| Chapter 10|| Chapter 11|| Chapter 12||

Chapter 13|| Chapter 14|| Chapter 15||

Chapter Six:

Burnt sienna eyes slowly took in their surroundings, absorbing the decorations, space, and scenery. Alsie walked beside Spencer, her heart and mind impatient to see her daughter but at the same time terrified. Though she was more stable now than nine weeks ago, she was terrified of Jemma denying her. Of Jemma saying she wanted Linnet or Jemma calling Linnet 'papa.'

"It'll be fine. Don't worry." Spencer whispered to his sister, reaching for her hand to give it a reassuring squeeze. The corner of his lips twitched - this situation was so similar to when he'd brought Alsie to the BAU to tell Rossi about her and James. She'd been so nervous, she'd grabbed Spencer's hand.

Alsie smiled up at Spencer, but withdrew her hand. Her outburst at the hospital was still fresh in her thoughts, including what she confessed to her brother. That she loved him since they were children. That she still did, despite everything.

"Oh! Hello." Joy, having just entered the hall, greeted Spencer before her gaze drifted onto Alsie. "You must be Alsie. I'm Joy Struthers."

"Hi..." Alsie replied, smiling weakly. Her brow furrowed a moment as she placed the name. During her nine week stay in the hospital, David Rossi had visited or called frequently to tell her about how Jemma was doing. He also had mentioned that he had an adult daughter and a grandson. "...where's Jemma?"

"She's taking a nap." Joy replied, gesturing to the room she just exited. Before she could say anything more, Alsie entered the room in question and hurried over to her daughter. Not bothering to close the door. The look on Alsie's face as she knelt beside the slumbering three-year-old was enough that Joy didn't mind the other woman's abruptness.

"Thank you for helping with Jemma." Spencer whispered, his own gaze locked on Alsie and his niece. His stomach knotted.

"Not a problem. She's family." Joy reassured, smiling at Spencer. It had been a shock for her when she found out about her half-brother James being switched at birth, even more so when she read the articles about what he'd done. It had taken a few days to wrap her head around the facts - she had refused to believe it at first, and hadn't until she heard it from her dad directly. "It's lucky that the media haven't found out about Jemma. Or Alsie."

"Yeah." Spencer mumbled, his eyes still focused on his sister and his niece. Making him miss the scrutinizing look Joy gave him. Once he did notice it he blinked, confused. "What is it?"

"...You're Jemma's uncle biologically, and not just because you're part of the BAU family, aren't you?" Joy said, her eyes lighting up in triumph at the look her words brought to Spencer's face. Before the genius could do more than sputter, she continued. "Dad didn't tell me. I just had a feeling there was something about Jemma's mother that he wouldn't divulge. And seeing you and Alsie side by side right now, I figured out what it was. I'm not sure why, though. Why keep it a secret?"

Spencer swallowed, uncomfortable. He hadn't specifically asked any of his team to keep him having a sister secret, but he knew they knew he was uncomfortable telling others. "...our mom doesn't know yet, about Alsie."

"Huh? Why wouldn't..." Joy's eyes widened, her brain locking on an idea. "My god. Is Alsie...one of those who were taken by Connell as well? Like James?"

Spencer's uncomfortable and sad smile was answer enough for Joy. The journalist turned towards Alsie, more concerned about the brunette than ever.

"My god. That's awful. That's..." Joy shook her head, flabbergasted. Her journalistic curiosity took hold and asked a question before she could rethink it. "Is that how she met James?"

"Wha...no. That..." Spencer faltered in his denial, the question making him realize that none of them knew actually how James and Alsie had met. Each of them had had their own guess about how the two met, but none of them had asked either that question.

"...we met outside a bar. It was raining, he had been drinking, and I offered to drive him home." Alsie interrupted, turning to glance at the two standing by the door. Her brow furrowed, her recollection after driving James hazy. It had been during the time when she was still taking narcotics, so she couldn't be sure if her lack of recollection was drug-induced or from her D.I.D. Until recently she had assumed it was the former.

"Oh. So it was by chance?" Joy asked and approached Alsie, brimming with curiosity. She didn't know much of anything about her half-brother, aside from his being switched at birth and his crimes. And what she'd seen of and heard about Alsie, made her curious about how someone responsible for such horrors could be with someone so nice.

"..." Spencer watched his sister's face, recognizing her confusion and trepidation. It was the same look she gave over recent weeks as she started coming to grips with her diagnosis, and questioning her blackouts. His stomach clenched, understanding how accurate his and the team's hypothesis had been. If Alsie had shifted to an alter shortly after meeting James, it had to be because he'd attacked her. "Alsie, I..."

Alsie shook her head slightly and gave a small, demure smile. "I'm fine. Besides, the team called about a case while we were on our way here. You should go help. It has to be important if they called on your day off."

Spencer shook his head. "I'm staying here to help with Jemma. I wasn't called in."

Even as he lied, he could tell Alsie wanted to believe him but was confused. Joy too gave him an unbelieving look. He grimaced, thinking about the call Alsie had mentioned.

-"There's an unsub copying James' M.O. Unlike James though, this unsub is killing his victims." Hotch said, after Spencer assured him Alsie couldn't overhear. "This unsub is targeting James' rape victims. He hopefully doesn't know about Alsie, and even though she isn't a victim of James', it'd be best not to chance it. You should stick with Alsie and Jemma until we catch this unsub."-

"I'm not leaving you or Jemma. All right?" Spencer repeated, deciding it was best to stick with the truthful part rather than the false.

"...all right." Alsie replied, still giving her brother a slightly dubious stare.

0Tape:

-"Please! Stop!" The burgundy haired woman screamed, struggling to move though unable. Her legs were useless, unmoving and her wrists were rubbed raw from the plastic rope tied around them.

There were some muffled sounds, a question asked by the unsub off camera. Or a comment. Whatever it was, the woman's eyes widened.

"I don't...please...I don't know. I don't..." The woman stammered, each words punctuated by a sob. It was getting more and more difficult to stay conscious. What looked like a splotch of blood on her shirt was steadily growing larger.

There was a cold, unamused chuckle and then a man strode in front of the camera. He was obscured by shadow and the fact that his back was to the camera. In his hand was a long darning needle, sharpened to a point and with a makeshift hand-grip. It was designed so the needle wouldn't slide from the man's grip.

The man pushed the woman forward, and readied the darning needle at her spine.

Hotch stopped the video, saving the rest of the BAU, and especially Garcia, from having to see the unsub actually stab his victim's spine. It was only a modicum of relief, since the details were present in the case files each agent had.

"...this is from the tape the unsub sent to Rossi?" Morgan asked, reading over the autopsy report on the victim found in New Jersey.

"Yes. And facial recognition software confirmed this is the same victim whose body was found by New Jersey police. Who they've identified as Olivia Sutters. Aged 38. Originally from Poughkeepsie, New York." Garcia interjected before Hotch could. "I'm running a search on her, trying to see if I can figure out where she and the unsub may have crossed paths."

"What about the other thing the unsub sent to Rossi?" JJ inquired, refraining from mentioning the word 'eyes' in respect of the tech analyst's squeamishness.

"You mean the um..." Garcia faltered, the image of gouged out eyeballs flashing in his thought. "Well, um..."

"Preliminary DNA tests have confirmed them to be the victim's." Hotch replied in the tech analyst's stead.

"I'm curious why this unsub went from attacking women previously attacked by James, to attacking an unconnected woman." Tara spoke as she reread part of the file. "Especially since this unsub abducted his latest victim from New York. Some of James' most recent victims still live in the state, right?"

"Yes. And they're being brought into protective custody just in case." Hotch answered. He paused a moment. "Because of the possibility of James having known the unsub or come in contact with him, we should question him."

"...James is still refusing to speak to any of us though, right? Even after we found Jemma." JJ asked, her expression concerned. Rossi hadn't told them specifically what James had said the last time he visited James in prison, a few weeks after finding Jemma, but it had been enough to make the senior agent furious.

"Agent Fitzgerald has offered to interview him, since it's..." The sound of the door opening interrupted the unit chief. Before Hotch could continue, Rossi entered the room agitated. Cam Fitzgerald followed behind him. Hotch's eyebrows rose slightly, and then his eyes narrowed by the same amount. "Rossi...? Fitzgerald? Did James...?"

Rossi shook his head, his expression more livid than any of them thought it would be if James' had simply refused an interview.

"There was some incident at the prison, between James and a guard..." Cam started to explain, her heterochromatic gaze on Rossi.

"They threw him back in solitary, Hotch." Rossi seethed, shaking his head in disbelief. His mind filled with the not too distant memory of seeing his son unconscious in the prison's medical wing. The result of a psychotic break following being thrown in solitary. "Even after what happened last time, they still..." He trailed off, muttering a few choice words in English and Italian.

Natza Prompts

Prompt #2 - Hand

“You’re always so gentle with Asuka,” Erza made the comment as the two of them walked away from the guild together. Waving goodbye was the Connell family of Alzack, Bisca, and Asuka. The youngest member of Fairy Tail rode atop her papa’s shoulders, waving both hands gleefully at Natsu and Erza and they went their separate ways. “She really adores you.”

“Really,” Natsu made a face, considering the thought. “Hah, I never really thought about it. But she’s so tiny! I have to really watch it around her. Just one wrong move and Bisca will fill me full of holes.” The sheer terror on his face made Erza chuckle. Even as strong as he was, the thought of crossing Bisca when she was in ‘Angry Mother Mode’ was a state that no man, regardless of stature or power, would want to trifle with.

“You would never hurt her,” Erza spoke confidently. “Of that I am certain so you can stop worrying.” On an impulse, she reached over and took one of his hands, a move that instantly brought a blush to Natsu’s face.

“Wha-what is it??” He blinked as Erza engrossed herself with inspecting his hand, seemingly deep in thought.

She knew so much about his hands, their coarse texture belied the gentleness they were capable of. The warmth they radiated was comforting to his friends and allies, and a searing inferno to those who counted among their enemies. A small blush tinged her own cheeks as she remembered how tightly he had held onto her after saving them from the Etherion at the Tower of Heaven.

“They really are warm,” she murmured, lowering his hand down to her side. Instead of releasing it, she kept hold of it, walking close enough so that it was easy to maintain. She turned her head slightly to look at him. “May I?”

Natsu wanted to say something - anything - like how embarrassing it was, or that he didn’t feel like it but surprisingly nothing came when he opened his mouth. After a moment, he just turned his head away but he did not pull his hand away.

Besides, her hand felt nice too...

— Dr. Jim Macnamara, Vice-Reitor, Universidade de Tecnologia de Sydney, Austrália.

Em questões sensíveis e altamente atuais, como custódia e apoio à criança, o debate público sobre questões de paternidade foi muitas vezes atolado em vitriolos feministas contra homens. Por exemplo, em um artigo de opinião importante, Trish Bolton, um tutor nas Universidades de Swinburne e Monash, criticou os “pais mortos” e generalizou sobre os homens e a política do governo sobre a custódia e apoio da criança com a ampla alegação de que “muitos homens simplesmente não Quer saber “(Sydney Morning Herald, 4 de setembro de 2003, p.15). A afirmação do título de Bolton é falsa pela pesquisa da Family Court of Australia conduzida por Bruce Hawthorne em 2002, o que mostra que 56% dos pais não residentes querem mais tempo com seus filhos. Além disso, um importante relatório de pesquisa produzido pelo Instituto Australiano de Estudos Familiares (Smyth, 2004) cita pesquisas de Kruk (1993) que descobriram que a ausência do pai após a separação é um caso de “papas vencidos” em vez de “pais mortos” e Braver e O ‘Connell em 1998 informou que o motivo excessivo de que os pais se desvinculam de seus filhos é porque se sentem “privados de direitos” pelo sistema judicial ou pelo ex-cônjuge ou ambos.

Sim, alguns homens falham em suas responsabilidades como pais. Mas muitos assumem suas responsabilidades a sério e mantêm um amor profundo e duradouro para seus filhos – inclusive após separação e divórcio. Mas todos os homens parecem estar “alinhados com um único pincel” no debate sobre a paternidade.

Um exemplo extremo do foco unilateral e gynocentric de discussão pública sobre a paternidade é evidente em uma série de artigos de mídia em que escritor australiano e ex-consultor do governo Blair na Grã-Bretanha, Adrienne Burgess, foi citado como um “especialista em paternidade” e Um “consultor da paternidade”. Burgess, autor de Paternidade Reclamada: The Making of the Modern Father, tem algumas coisas informativas e valiosas a dizer em seu livro e na mídia. Seu gênero não a desqualifica de falar e escrever sobre a paternidade, mas a capacidade de Burgess de conhecer as experiências e os sentimentos dos pais é, pelo menos, limitada e seu posicionamento como “especialista em paternidade” deve ser questionável. Um homem escrevendo da mesma maneira na maternidade e sendo citado como “especialista em maternidade” seria saudado com alguma incredulidade.

Embora as experiências, sentimentos e pontos de vista subjetivos dos homens sejam sub-representados ou desaparecidos nas discussões sobre questões como a paternidade, as relações familiares equilibradas e a política social, provavelmente não ocorrerão.

Com uma das crianças menores de 18 anos que tem pouco ou nenhum contato com seu pai de acordo com a pesquisa do Australian Institute of Family Studies, a questão é de grande importância social.

Enquanto isso, uma grande história da primeira página em The Age intitulada “The Family Court: como isso pode empurrar os homens para a borda” informou que o tribunal estava investigando até que ponto suas decisões contribuíram para suicídios masculinos. O artigo relatou: “Pequenas pesquisas foram realizadas na área, mas a mais recente, publicada no Journal of Family Studies há sete anos, descobriu que homens separados eram seis vezes mais propensos a cometer suicídio do que homens casados”. O artigo observou que “quase 2.000 homens se matam todos os anos na Austrália e o número está aumentando” (The Age, 19 de agosto, 2003, p. 1).

His refer was Henry Summers – but who was he? – BBC News

Image caption Harry( on the left) with workmates at George Brown& Sons

When I listened the histories of an elderly soul who had lain undiscovered in his flat for three years I wanted to know more about who he was.

It began with an urban horror tale.

In June 2015 police in Edinburgh were called by a GP because an older case named Henry Summers had not been examined for several years.

The police went to Henry’s address in Leith, one of the most densely populated areas in Scotland.

Image caption Henry lived in a top-floor flat in Leith

They went to the door of his top-floor flat on Easter Road and knocked but got no answer.

The police called a locksmith but he couldn’t open the door because the hinges had fused as it hadn’t been opened for years.

When the police knocked the door down they found a mountain of forward in the hallway and Henry Summers was inside, dead.

He had been dead for three years, undiscovered, because all of his greenbacks were paid by direct debit.

Image caption Police beat down the door to amplification entry to Henry’s flat

A few years before that a woman had been found dead in Edinburgh, undiscovered for five years.

The media were full of recrimination and thumb parting.

I used to work with old people and had seen this before. It’s easy to de-personalise older people.

We talk about parents and pensioners as if they are conversation-starters about social issues.

But the method person expires isn’t a summary of their whole life.

Who was Henry Summers?

A year after his figure was seen, I wanted to find out who Henry Summers had been during his 80 -something years of life.

My detective work was for a BBC Radio Scotland documentary and it began with reported cases of the incident in the daily newspapers.

Journalist John Connell had interviewed neighbours at the time their own bodies was discovered.

Image caption Denise Mina started her investigations at the dwelling where Henry was spotcheck

They told him they had last envisioned Mr Summertime three years earlier in 2012.

They understood him being stretchered out of his house into an ambulance.

He was wearing an oxygen mask and gazed very grey-headed.

The neighbours didn’t know that Henry had been discharged and turned over to his house.

Image caption The nameplate on Henry’s front doorway

Later, one of the neighbours knocked on the door. He opened Henry’s letterbox and smelled what he expected was meat departing bad.

They said Henry maintained himself to himself but was very dapper, ever wore a blue-blooded case and a flat detonator and he used to whistle as he was coming up the stairs.

Then a twist: a human being put forward and said that the man were dead in the flat in Easter Road could not maybe be Henry Summers.

Henry Summers of Easter Road was his father and had died and been cremated in 2012.

‘Unfathomable coincidence’

My Henry was 10 year older than the man’s papa.

This meant that two men with the exact same identify had lived in the same street and died in the same year.

It sounds like an unfathomable co-occurrence – but it wasn’t.

Later, formerly we knew who Henry was, it would realize perfect sense.

Image caption Henry lived at 300 Easter Road in Leith

I went to Easter Road and questioned in the neighbourhood caf, the inn, newsagents.

The police wouldn’t release a photograph of Henry so it was difficult to know if they were remembering our Henry.

Some beings thought they’d identified him but he was variously reported under being in his 60 s and his 90 s.

Some said he stood at the bus stop each morning, caught the count 35 and then came back on it in the afternoon.

He bought milk and newspapers every day extremely but the shopkeepers had changed in the three years since he was last identified. He was a difficult soul to find.

Funeral paid for

I had assumed that Henry had been forgotten and would then be interred by the city council.

Public health funerals often happen when a person has died alone and impoverished.

I was completely wrong.

In fact, Henry’s funeral had been organised and paid for and an obituary had been printed in the paper.

I wrote, via the crematorium, to the person who paid for the funeral but they wanted to remain anonymous.

I too assumed that Henry’s flat was leased, perhaps the proprietor would know him, but Henry owned his flat outright.

He had bought it in 1970 and paid his mortgage off wholly in just four years.

It was 1,500. Where on clay did he get that money from? Was he from a rich lineage?

I was deposited so I went on BBC Radio Scotland’s Kaye Adams programme to ask for information.

Left intestate

The documentary team were contacted on Facebook by people who thought they had determined a soldier matching his description in the Ocean Terminal Shopping Centre.

He was there regularly, reading the working paper, quite content, they said.

The number 35 stops there so it seemed credible.

In the meantime, I tried to retrace members of the public who acquired Henry’s flat.

In Scotland, any owned left intestate is dealt with by the National Ultimus Haeres Unit.

National Ultimus Haeres Unit

DEATHS REPORTED 01 JULY 2015

SUMMERS, Henry, d.o.b: 16/03/ 1929: place of birth: Leith, who resided at Flat 3F3, 300 Easter Road, Edinburgh, EH6 8JT and who died at Flat 3F3, 300 Easter Road, Edinburgh, EH6 8JT, on 24/06/ 2015. NUHU/ 113/15 – POSSIBLE RELATIVES TRACED

They list unclaimed owned online so that any assertions can be filed.

Henry’s flat had been claimed but they couldn’t tell us who the beneficiary was.

I contacted expert genealogist Dr Bruce Durie and using the Land Register and the census he solved the whodunit of the two Henrys.

Our Henry was born in 1929 and had lived and operated in Leith all of his life.

He was an merely child and lived with his mothers, wet-nurse his fragile mum until her demise.

After that he moved from a flat in Thorntree Street merely round the corner to the flat in Easter Road.

Image caption Henry was said to have taken the 35 bus from his home to Ocean Terminal in Leith

Here was the answer: Henry’s dad, one of nine children, was brought up at several address in Couper Street, Leith.

This street was occupied almost completely by households by the epithet of Summers.

Most of those houses, likely relations, had children called Henry.

The refer ‘Henry Summers’ was as much an integrated part of Leith as tether and drink.

Demographics changed

The only reason I didn’t know that was that Leith has changed so much better over the past 40 times.

It is gentrified now, the docks have slammed, the demographics changed and the vast Summers family have mostly left.

My Henry was a ships’ carpenter, according to his death credential.

This was an extremely skilled job with a long apprenticeship. Henry’s family were labourers, so he had done well for himself.

They must have been very proud of him.

The mystery of the mortgage abode.

Maritime historian Dr Eric Graham supposed that Henry might have been a whaler or laboured long haul.

Those ships would go around the world for months at a time and ships’ carpenters could be paid a lump sum at the end of the voyage.

His name was Harry

It was all guesswork but then our original radio programme was broadcast and abruptly Henry came alive again.

His old pals heard it and contacted us, or the newspapers carrying storeys about him.

He wasn’t even known as Henry, everyone called him Harry.

Harry, it turned out, was a great shriek.

He was a Hibs fan, a bright carpenter and an angler.

His old gaffer told us Harry was beset by a mysteriously intermittent suit of lumbago, which only ever flared up when he couldn’t be inconvenienced doing a particular enterprise.

His work pal, Andy, contacted us.

Image caption Harry( on the left) with workmates at George Brown& Sons

They worked together at George Brown’s in Leith the whole way through the 1970 s.

Andy saw the obit in the working paper and was just going Harry’s funeral.

He said Harry was a gent.

In the 1940 s and 1950 s, when Harry firstly began work, men in the high-pitched trades would wear a shirt and tie underneath their overalls. Harry still did this in the mid-9 0s.

Image copyright George Brown& Sons

Image caption Henry toiled at George Brown and Sons in Leith

We received information that Harry was a good guy who didn’t like sexist pranks, which was uncommon in the docks in the 70 s.

Another old effort chum, Robert, be said that Harry would pop in to picture the guys after he retired to regale them with his latest escapades.

Harry was a corroborated bachelor-at-arms, an only son and came across as bit of a mummy’s son, in a really nice room.

He was teetotaller when Robert knew him but their gaffer, Fred, told legends about Harry’s wilder periods when they would all chuckle and Harry would chortle along with them.

Fred was a whaler and Robert never heard them to talk about whaling together, so he contemplated Harry maybe hadn’t said and done. He didn’t think he had ever been abroad.

Image copyright George Brown& Sons

Assistant manager at George Brown and Sons, Steve McIntosh, knew him well.

Harry had retired in the late 90 s and loved river angling for trout.

He was off every weekend to the Tweed and Dalkeith.

Harry didn’t like drydocking the barges in winter or the downpour, Steve said.

If Harry knew a boat was coming in and the weather was rotten, he’d call in sick with lumbago, an rare precondition for someone as active as Harry.

Very extraordinary in ardent flow anglers.

Extraordinarily skilled

Steve said they wouldn’t tell Harry the barge was coming in but Harry would have his avenge: if he knew they’d tricked him he’d call in sick the next day.

Despite this Harry was worth preventing on because he was so good at his responsibility, remarkably skilled and meticulous.

It become apparent that as well as the shipyard, he had been part of a unit who “re-roped” the stage sets at the Churchill and Playhouse theatres in Edinburgh.

When Harry retired he exploited his bus pass to go anywhere – Galashiels, Berwick, Kirkcaldy.

The last-place season Robert learnt Harry was in the St James shopping centre in Edinburgh city centre.

He was fit and active going for a bus. Robert asked him where he was going and Harry said he didn’t know.

Image caption Harry in the back sequence of Rona’s exercise class( wearing a red T-shirt)

He was going to jump on any bus and that would be his destination for the day.

Harry’s physiotherapist went in touch.

Rona operated an exercise group for people with nerve maladies and Harry ever stood at the back with the other guys.

They all started at the same occasion.

The group would go for an annual daylight out at the Botanic Plot and “shes been” recollects Harry at their Christmas Ceilidh.

Image caption Henry( back left) on a trip to the Botanics with Rona’s fitness team

When he stopped coming they were worried about him but Rona bumped into him and he explained he was having trouble with absces paws.

He never returned to the class but was spotted out and about, on the bus and at the bookies.

At the physio class Harry and another man would swap floors about the bookies, how luck or unfortunate they had been.

The mystery of the mortgage remained until “weve heard” this. Harry was a speculator.

Maybe Harry just got lucky.

His Name was Henry will be broadcast on BBC Radio Scotland at 13:30 on Wednesday and is likely to be available on the iplayer .
