List 5 tv shows and answer the following questions.

1. Silent Witness

2. Poldark

3. Line of Duty

4. Friends

5. From Dusk Till Dawn

Who is your favourite character in 2? DWIGHT ENYS THE BEST OF MEN

Who is your least favourite character in 1? They’ve had a lot of terrible people on Silent Witness lol of the ongoing ‘main’ cast rn I’ll say Matt (and NO not only for Certain Reasons)

What is your favourite episode of 4? OH GOD SO MANY I will say that one of my faves is The One in Massapequa idk what it is but there are so many parts I still cackle at.

What is your favourite season of 5? S1 was probably the most solid storywise but character wise S3 is the best I would say.

Who is your favourite couple in 3? STEVE AND KATE STEVE AND KATE STEVE AND KATE

Who is your favourite couple in 2? Ross and Demelza always

What is your favourite episode of 1? AGAIN there are so many and how am I supposed to choose???? I’ll throw y’all for a loop though and say Shadows because HOLY SHIT I was tense throughout and it 100% should have been the season finale and I’m disappointed it wasn’t. But I’m never gonna be able to choose a fave from S16 to now IT’S IMPOSSIBLE I CANNOT CHOOSE

What is your favourite episode of 5? GOTTA STOP ASKIN THIS I AM INDECISIVE but I’ll sayyyyy Dark Side of the Sun (S3 finale) is always a solid choice.

What is your favourite season of 2? S1 without a doubt

How long have you watched 1? So my mum has always watched it and I’ve watched whenever I’ve been in the room and it’s been on in a very casual way but I was never invested in it etc (I have vague memories of Leo dying etc) but it wasn’t until this year, for some unknown reason, I got totally hooked and mercifully iplayer had all the eps from S5(?) onwards? So I watched from S16 (ofc) since I liked Jack and have since gone back and watched from Nikki joining the team too.

How did you become interested in 3? Again, I’ve always been aware of it and it has been on my watch list since it started and I had seen the first half of S1 when it first aired and just never got round to the rest BUT I HAVE RECTIFIED THAT NOW WITH QUARANTINE AND I AM ALL UP TO DATE

Who is your favourite actor in 4? David Schwimmer is a comedic timing genius and I will not hear Ross Geller hate because David is an absolute gem.

Which do you prefer, 1, 2, or 5? IT ALL DEPENDS ON MY MOOD THOUGH

Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3? Silent Witness has way more eps than Line of Duty so it’s gonna be that

If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be? Monica for sure (she’s the one I most relate to anyway)

Would a crossover between 3 and 4 work? ....noooo (don’t even think a parody would work)

Pair two characters in 1 who would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple? Y’all know I’m ride or die Jack/Nikki and Clarissa is happily married AND her and Jack are like brother and sister. But if I had to IF I HAD TO, I’d put Jack and Clarissa together (which makes me super uncomfortable given the sibling dynamic BUT THEY DO JOKE ABOUT IT A LOT SO)

Overall, which show has the better storyline, 3 or 5? Line of Duty wihtout a doubt, I love Dusk to absolute bits but...come on...

Which has better theme music, 2 or 4? HOW DARE YOU I’m not answering this. Making me choose between my Queen Anne Dudley and ‘I’ll Be There For You’ the song which fills me so much comfort and joy and safety nooope.

alright im about to watch 5.03 of merlin for the 2nd time ever

because if i dont do it now i may NEVER GET ANOTHER CHANCE

but first i wanna get out of the way that i thought merlin convincing arthur to keep the ban on magic in 5.05 because he was trying to thwart ~*~destiny~*~ or whatever is the laziest writing ever, it’s unsatisfying for the audience, it renders the rest of the last season utterly pointless, it’s unfair to merlin and arthur, and the tonal shift of the show from farting trolls in season 2 to full greek tragedy in season 5 was completely unwarranted and i feel TRICKED as a human person because i expected the end to be bittersweet and make me sad, not table-flipping angry, and i do not at all have high hopes for the finale

but i can ignore something having a “bad last five minutes” i did it for life is strange and final fantasy 13-2 i will do it for merlin but honestly

speaking on 5.03, after it was over the first time i was like “i can never write my fanfic now because nothing i ever do will be as good as that” but i’m really relieved in that way that that was apparently the last good episode of merlin because now i can continue my work in peace and maybe hopefully even actually finish it

okay commence the liveblog:

love that arthur and merlin are down to just jump off their horses whenever random women start screaming in the distance. season 5 could have been so good, they’re so much more grown up and in sync with one another, i absolutely LOVE their #vibe

it was interesting to me also that arthur DEMANDED a fair trial for this woman despite her being accused of sorcery. god, he was SO CLOSE?? that hatred of magic just can’t really take root in him especially with uther gone...arthur may be an asshole in the early seasons, and he may be quick to anger and quick to lash out in that anger, but it’s just not in him to be cruel, especially needlessly

EVEN THIS LADY IS LIKE “u showed kindness and compassion” arthur is a Good Boy deep down he is he IS he didn’t care a bit about that horn she gave him but still politely said it was beautiful

although lmao the way his face changed when she said it was magic...that’s the STUFF

lowkey losing it at athony head in the credits. i was looking to see if he’d be in the s5 ones since he’s dead and didn’t see him in 5.01 or 5.02 so when i DID see him in 5.03 i was like haha no way did they pay to put him in here i guess i just missed him the first couple of times BUT I WAS WRONG

like, in buffy, they spend an entire episode trying to decide whether or not to necromance their mom or whatever and she doesnt actually APPEAR IN THE EP they never SEE her i thought this would be an episode ABOUT uther i didn’t think uther would be IN it

love that from the get-go arthur’s face screams “i am thinking about making a terrible mistake” and merlin’s face is like “he is thinking about making a terrible mistake”

i’m quite proud of merlin in s5 actually. bad writing aside he uses multiple braincells many times per episode. it’s a vast improvement. same energy as clary from shadowhunters right down to getting shafted in his final season

ive said it before and ill say it again gwen looks SOOO GOOOOD as queen

if this is the anniversary of uther’s death then (if you go by 1 season = 1 year) arthur just turned 30...it’s been nine years and change since merlin met him, and by the end of season 5 it will have been an entire decade

in an otherwise increddibly heavy episode arthur panicking and throwing all the apples out of the bowl so he could cover the horn with it is absolutely priceless. season 5 if nothing else has really hammered home for me what a TERRIBLE liar arthur is - merlin got good at it fast out of necessity but arthur can’t hold a poker face to save his LIFE. “leave it.” “why??” “because i’m telling you to and i’m the king of camelot” buddy......

we were ROBBED. if there had ever been a day where arthur came to accept merlin’s magic but still had to help merlin hide it there could have been an entire episode of arthur nearly blowing merlin’s cover because he’s a nervous nelly and at the end he goes “i cant believe you have had to do this 24/7 for YEARS without a single friend to help you” and merlin goes “well now i have you” anyway.

i love also that repeatedly when arthur goes to do something scary by himself he also brings merlin. they LITERALLY are two halves of a whole

“you’re threatening me with a spoon??” i can’t tell you about the unfortunate fanfics i have seen involving The Spoon. i shall also not mention the ones involving The Glove. we will not speak of it

I CANNOT BELIEVE STONEHENGE IS IIN MERLIN. i got so agitated i did not pay one bit of attention to the conversation following its reveal and me and cathy and had to rewind so i could listen properly

my hate-on for stonehenge goes thusly: stonehenge apocalypse, starring misha collins, is @callowyn‘s favorite movie. i have seen it 45 times. i hate it nearly as much as she loves it. it’s an age-old battle

merlin is so intense when he looks for signs in arthur that he DOESN’T totally hate magic...arthur using magic to see his dad again is one of those signs. he’s willing to turn to it in desperation - maybe he’d be willing in less desperate times too

“my father was taken from me before his time” i mean...he was practically in a coma. so like. he wasn’t

love that when arthur mentions merlins dad ONCE he immediately looks like he’s about to cry. mood. i also want to cry every time i think about merlins dad

up until the moment i laid eyes on uther i was SURE they werent actually gonna do it. i came into this thinking it was a FLASHBACK EP

for the record (and believe me i NEVER thought i’d say this) even though i waited and waited for his demise and cheered when he was gona for good...i really missed uther in season 4. at least with uther you know what you’re getting. agravaine (his replacement as “evil guy who keeps us from being able to solve our problems too easily”) was a slimy cowardly CREEP. and in season 5 i WISH things were as simple as “work around uther’s pigheaded unreasonableness”

for a hot second i really thought uther and arthur would have a nice conversation where they reconciled or said something heartwarming. i was worried about an uther redemption arc - this guy is responsible for the genocide of magic users, he doesn’t deserve redemption - but this show said NOT TODAY and they said it QUICK

ARE

BLESSED

i have A LOT of issues with season 5 but JESUS FUCKING CHRIST THIS WAS DADDY ISSUES 2.0 BROUGHT BACK FROM THE DEAD

repressed trauma returns: harder better faster stronger!! that’s the STUFF

was i not just speaking the other day on my fanfic ask meme about how i love emotionally intense stuff? this is IT babey

uther’s such a bad father! he’s with his only child again for the last time in ever and all he does is tear him a new one! this is why arthur’s such a fucked-up human being (morgana too)

i’m THRILLED we got to revisit this. his eyes get bigger and bigger and he starts fucking stammering and by the time uther’s done calling him weak and a failure he looks ready to CRY. i was HOLLERING. i still couldnt believe uther was even HERE and not only is he HERE he’s a WRECKING BALL

“this CAN’T be the last time i’ll ever see you” oh buddy you’re gonna wish it was

and he looks back, as he leaves. of COURSE he does. just like lot’s wife. so it goes.

you know how at the end of every supernatural episode sam and dean debrief and talk about their feelings in the car? for merlin and arthur it’s almost always done around a campfire at night - sometimes in arthur’s chambers or other places, but usually out here in the wilderness where it’s just the two of them. i’m...really going to miss it, when it’s gone.

“my father doesn’t approve of the way i’ve chosen to rule his kingdom” “you mean YOUR kingdom”

you know i don’t think i really got...like, fundamentally, on a deep level...that merlin fucking HATES uther

i’ve seen him save uther’s miserable life so many fucking times that i thought for merlin it was kind of the way it was with gwen - he feels nothing for him, but he looks after him for arthur’s sake (or as i came to understand later because he’s professor x about the whole thing)

but the way his expression got SO UGLY when arthur revealed that uther just shit-talked him the entire time...holy fuck

between that & some other stuff that happens later it really paints a clearer picture of like...uther’s dead so merlin doesn't have to hold back anymore and he FUCKING HATES HIM?? like obviously he SHOULD bu i just never SAW it before this. merlin LOATHES him. it’s INCREDIBLE to witness when he bore it so silently for so long. maybe even merlin didn’t realize just how much he hated him until now

and not to get too real here but if youve ever been friends with someone who had an abusive/toxic parent or was in an abusive/toxic relationship and you watch them feeling like shit after and they start making excuses for that asshole like “oh yeah he’s right about x” and you just want to find this horrible person and THROTTLE THEM that emotion is like ALL OVER merlin’s face rn. i didn’t actually seriously "”ship”” merlin and arthur until late season 4/early season 5 (i didnt like dislike it i just wasnt actively bothered by a lack of it) and what changed was this vibe. merlin wants to kill uther all over again just because he made arthur feel this way. he’s so fuckijng PROTECTIVE

and he still almost manages to drag a smile out of him via roasting, god bless these 2

ok so i didnt believe this show would actually DO THAT re: putting uther himself in this ep but i was doubly shocked by the fact that he HITCHED A RIDE AND GOT OUT

me shrieking during this entire poltergeist sequence: OH MY GOD OH MY GOD IT’S REALLY HIM?? HOLY FUCK HE IS LITERALLY HAUNTING ARTHUR I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY’RE DOING THIS I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY’RE GIVING US THIS etc etc etc

actually most of that was probably muffled nonsense because i was yelling with both hands over my mouth

percival’s the realest motherfucker on this whole show. dude survives a murder attempt in which he got an AXE lobbed at him by the fucking GHOST of a power-mad genocidal king and he’s like: yeah idk i guess it fell

there was thunder in the bg for this WHOLE ep and i’m Big into it

absolutely CACKLING at the bit where merlin has to ask arthur if he looked back at uther’s spirit. it’s one of those nice big heavy questions - so heavy, in fact, that arthur can’t answer, can’t even LOOK at merlin, either because he’s ashamed or because he’s bugging out or both. you thought this shit was over? it’s never over! daddy issues are a lifelong ride, pal! arthur’s just get to haunt him literally this time. god it’s so fucking good

can i just say? merlin reads that damning silence reeeal well. and it’s a big, heavy thing to know about arthur - but then again he knows all the big heavy things about arthur

the score for this episode is really good too...very suspenseful and good, adds a lot to the atmosphere, keeps it from getting too slow

there’s a hint of merlin’s absolute HATRED of uther in this conversation again - the way his face tightens when he says “uther would do anything to protect his legacy and that makes him dangerous, who knows what he’s capable of now”

and arthur dismisses him because he can’t hear this but merlin almost refuses to leave - and when he DOES leave, he doesn’t take his eyes off arthur for one fucking second. he stares him down all the way out of the room. i don’t think it’s because he’s angry with arthur, per se - he’s angry with uther, and he knows uther in a way arthur never can or will, as someone ruthless who will kill without warning or remorse. he’s afraid of uther and he’s trying to get arthur to be afraid of uther too before it’s too late and LSDKFJGHSLDFJH

if you’re thinking “thats a lot to interpret from one look” yes it is but i’m right. IT’S A BIG, HEAVY LOOK. NICE AND LOADED. love unpacking all of that

i cant believe this dude tried to KILL GWEN like he really is coming after everything that makes arthur happy. im so glad it was merlin that saved her. i really do think merlin is her best friend

multiple times in this serious arthur fidgets when he’s nervous or thinking, usually with his hands near his mouth. i am endeared to him. my poor boy

“i always knew my father could be cruel but why would he do this to gwen when he knows i love her” BECAUSE HE’S CRUEL

merlin knows. merlin knows his cruelty much better than arthur. boy does he know. i’m dying. it’s fine

love that at this part of the ep we slide seamlessly into the “merlin and arthur are both scared shitless” section which was truly one of my favorite things about the s4 opener. they’re both so fucking jumpy and giving each other shit about being frightened and continuing to be frightened anyway. the DELICIOUS IRONY of arthur finally being scared of uther in the way merlin has been scared of uther for Y E A R S oh my god it’s so GOOD

do also love the entire silent conversation they have when deciding what to do about the door. this is what i mean by their upgraded vibe.l in the early seasons merlin wouldn’t have understood and his lack of understanding would have been played for laughs. now they’re totally in sync

here’s the thing, gaius could have made this magic “able to see uther’s ghost” potion for just arthur and he didn’t. he made it for both of them. everything arthur does merlin does. they’re partners in all things. they’re COMPANIONS. and this is why i finally now Ship It. tragic.

you know this is a kind of weird comparison but late seasons arthur reminds me JUST a bit of gwaine. he complains so much less that he sort of has that same “roll with whatever” vibe to him. pretend to faint so you can steal some guy’s dagger? why not. take this foul potion that may kill us? sure, let’s do it. come what may he’s not really fussed. much more unflappable

until he starts getting spooked again LMFAO

we do love a good pair of spooked dumbasses. this is charming and entertaining.

leon HAD to know they were lying about poetry. he probably thought they were having.......a tryst,

love also that even in this very dire moment merlin does NOT miss the chance to have some fun at arthur’s expense. that’s true friendship

i got jumpscared three separate times during this ep and one of them was when uther was glaring down merlin and arthur in the hallway after leon left

arthur didn’t jump but he did go hunting after him and to his credit he does not look scared. he looks like a man who is trying to deal with his business and get his shit together

merlin made that FACE again when arthur expressed sadness at hunting his own father because all he ever wanted to DO was make him proud

honestly it’s like since he can’t shit-talk uther he just sings arthur’s praises instead like this here is a guy who is just barely holding his tongue about how fuckin pissed he is. i cant believe it

splitting up was the WORST idea. have they not seen scooby doo??

love that when merlin gets cornered by uther’s ghost and gets scared he yells for arthur and when arthur gets scared because his torch blows out he yells for merlin. you fools, why did you SPLIT UP

uther locks arthur in the room with him, which is already some top tier content, but doubly good? it’s the same room in which arthur nearly ran him through in 2.08. don’t think i didn’t notice. i did notice. i was shrieking into my hands.

seriously this is a pretty calm liveblog but the first time i watched this ep my face was like this the whole time: O O

just kept going “HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK OH MY GOD” over and over. it was greeat

“arthur your fatal flaw is that you put too much trust in other people” do you think arthur, who now has a complex about people betraying him, ever forgot that for one second in his entire life afterward? me neither

speaking of 2.08 arthur dropped some FACTS “your hatred comes from fear” i'm sure they didn’t do it on purpose but #throwbacks

i’m fully experiencing human emotion. “i’m not you, i can’t rule like you did” he’s trying SO HARD to fight his way out of that bullshit

also lmao arthur like “then you’ll have to kill me” and uther like “yeah okay” arthur didn’t KNOW how this man was this could have been SUCH a good awakening

AND NOW IT’S TIME

FOR MY FAVORITE PART OF THIS EPISODE

when i say merlin hates uther. WHEN I SAY MERLIN H A T E S UTHER

HIS LINE HERE. ok. “get away from him, uther. you’ve caused enough harm” he’s furious! he’s GROWLING!

“you are just a serving boy” “i am much more than that” listen. human words cannot express the emotion that ran through me. when they said “we’re gonna bring back anthony head as uther” i doubted. when they said “he’s gonna be the bad guy and reopen all of arthur’s old wounds” i doubted. when they said “he’s still here LITERALLY haunting arthur who now has to HUNT HIM” I DOUBTED. i didn’t believe they’d do any of it until it was happening on my screen. but ONE LOOK at merlins face made a MOTHERFUCKING BELIEVER out of me. i knew exactly what he was about to do. pretty sure i gasped “NO” in astonishment

AND HE DID THAT

HE👏

DID👏

THAT👏

NOT ONLY. DID I SHRIEK ALOUD. FULL SCREAM. WHEN IT HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME. BUT JUST NOW. WHEN I WATCHED HIM DO IT AGAIN. MORE SCREAMING.

how LONG do you think merlin had ACHED to do that

to show himself to uther for what he was, what he REALLY WAS, someone to be reckoned with instead of someone to be overlookedd, without fear of consequences

i can’t even like

like just imagine the triple rush of 1. satisfaction 2. rage 3. lingering habitual terror

i think at this moment merlin was closer to and more like morgana than he had ever been and maybe ever will be again. because the two of them have so much in common but one thing i didn’t really clock until now is how much they both hate uther

it’s so good. uther is SHOCKED and DISMAYED and this is like merlin’s old fear come back from death too (getting found out by uther) while at the same time being a dream come true (getting to tell uther what he really thinks, who he really is - “i was BORN with it!”) he’s so ANGRY! he is LIVID!)

he’s also really SATISFIED like “even while you were king there was magic at the heart of camelot” GOD how long has he been WAITING for this and not even realized it

and like then uther starts spewing his hateful bullshit and stalking forward with the intent to kill and my guy merlin who should be terrified STANDS HIS MOTHERFUCKING GROUND and says right over him “you’re wrong, you’re wrong” for thirty beautiful seconds merlin really got to be free. i know i will keep comparing things to 2.08 until i die but it’s just like when arthur was almost ready to kill uther in cold blood because for one perfect, brilliant moment he really and truly saw clearly the world as it was. i really love these moments...the strength of their respective convictions is so gratifying

merlin yeeting uther through a door is also gratifying although i have no idea what he hoped to accomplish by following without waking arthur first

i. LOVE. that the camera lingered a little on the spears or whatever after merlin walked by them. nice little foreshadowing moment

THOSE SPEARS GOT AWFULLY CLOSE BUT IM PRETTY SURE UTHER MISSED ON PURPOSE BECAUSE HE WANTED TO TAKE HIS TIME. HIS MISTAKE

okay merlin spent the better part of a lifetime dreading uther’s death sentence and here’s uther stalking down a hallway sword pointed at his chest and certain death is IMMINENT and what does merlin’s face look like?

arthur comes in with the rescue and INSTANTLY his expression changes to?

IT’S BETTER IN MOTION BUT HE LOOKS READY TO CRY

my immediate thought: oh jesus what if uther outs him

i knew he wouldnt bc of spoilers but i would bet a benjamin that that was merlin’s first thought too

tbh. i wish he had.

i kind of wonder if merlin doesn’t wish the same thing. like yes being outed like that is terribly violating and he’s terrified of telling arthur obviously or he would have already but at the same time there would be so much relief once it was finally out. no more secret-keeping. no more burden

i mean, if you go back and watch it, dude’s straight up shaking. he’s trembling all over. he’s losing it. that last teary glance they exchanged.......

uther was two SYLLABLES away from blowing the whole thing

and in a better happier canon where arthur knows and was waiting for merlin to tell him this is like double angst because uther wouldve ben blowing something for them both

i like arthurs followup of realizing that he’ll never be able to please uther (step 1 of breaking away from the cycle of abuse) but for the LIFE OF ME

i will NEVER be able to understand why they segued into this GLOVE THING

i’m not talking about the glove thing

i will say however that by the end of this episode i was so hysterical i had to get up and get water and pace around my kitchen for ten minutes fanning my own face

and that’s it. that’s the second-best episode of merlin and the last good episode there ever was

#personal #merlin blogging #it took me three and a half hours to rewatch this episode because i kept pausing to scream #MERLIN DESERVES TO BE OUT TO EVERYONE ALL THE TIME it's not FAIR #that episode deserved to be 20 minutes longer it ended too soon #in a happier world arthur found out about the magic and immediately took merlin's side and defended him against the genocidal maniac but app #apparently this show is a greek tragedy now

SPN 4x09: “I Know What You Did Last Summer”

I always have the hardest time getting myself to watch this episode, but I’m biting the bullet and finally getting through this.

Anna was so pretty.

When this episode first premiered, I would have loved to have seen the general audience reaction to Anna go from “Ok, here’s another person thinking the Apocalypse is coming, and she ain’t wrong, but she’s got no idea that she’s right” to “HOLY SHIT, how does she know all of this????”

Oh fuck that, run girl!

Sam and Dean scamming people at pool, lmao. After S1!Sam was so up and arms about it, hahaha.

Too bad Ruby ruins it.

Just like how once Cas and Dean are talking, anyone else is out, once Sam and Ruby are talking, Dean is out.

I understand Dean’s reluctance to work the case, but this is a case.

“You got something to say, say it.”

“Oh, I’m saying it- this sucks.”

“As far as you’re concerned, the hell-bitch is practically family.” Hmm, had Ruby not turned out to be evil, could she have been like the Crowley of the family? Family friend, mayhaps?

(Oh my god, could you imagine Mary’s reaction to Ruby??)

Low blow, Sam. Fuck off. You know damn well that between an explanation for trusting a demon versus asking someone to talk about their deepest trauma, the former warrants a conversation w a y more.

Sam is drunk out of his mind, trying to summon a crossroad demon. We’ll unfortunately see a repeat of this in S10.

According to that demon’s taunt, this might have happened soon after the burial. How soon did Sam bury Dean, and how soon did Sam come to do this?

Brutal.

Sam was completely off the rails, oh my goodness.

“Dean’s in Hell, right where we want him. We’ve got everything exactly the way we want it.” He’s right.

Sam looks like he wants to talk to Dean...but doesn’t. Typical.

Anna started this behavior two months ago.

lmao Dean.

There we go, the transition from “She doesn’t know she’s right about the Apocalypse, but it’s probably a coincidence” to “Holy shit, who is she and how can she know this?”

Her sketches were really beautiful tho.

The Milton household.

RIP Mr. and Mrs. Milton. Sam’s reaction is very much accurate.

Sulfur.

Off to the church of the drawings.

Sam, Dean, meet Anna...who already knows you.

The moment Dean gave the “oh wow she’s pretty” look, I knew they were gonna at least kiss at some point.

Anna can hear angels. She’s just spilling all this information, damn.

The iconic quote.

Convenient timing, Ruby.

But she is here to help soooo

Ruby demands a special Sam exorcism of “the demon”. Dean objects.

Sam didn’t even give it a moment’s thought, just went straight to prepping himself for a psychic exorcism. Jesus, dude.

(But A G A I N, Ruby is right. Sam will use his powers to get rid of Alastair later on in the season.)

“You don’t have the juice to take me on, Sam.”

Ruby takes Anna.

The official introduction.

(x)

Confirmation that the knife doesn’t work on Alastair.

Oh I looovveee the little insight on how the boys patch themselves up after a fight.

Sam’s stitching is actually pretty good.

I love that joke.

Nope, you gotta fess up Sam.

“Because...she saved my life.”

Ruby 1.5! No one ever talks about her.

Ruby’s tryin’ to lighten the mood. Girl, don’t.

“I’m a fugitive for you Sam.” Hmmm, where do we hear this kind of proclamation again and from whom?? (Spoiler alert: it’s Cas to Dean in S5.)

Well, at least she was honest about not being able to save Dean. Took a second try to get it right.

Sam asks about the current vessel. Ruby’s got a point, why ask now? The Rising of the Witness had Meg Masters confronting Sam about this, and that was after this.

And for that matter, who was Ruby 1.0?

Ruby 1.5 is “some secretary”.

So Ruby 2.0 was a Jane Doe....which still makes me curious about who she really was.

She brought a literal receipt, lol.

Ruby is literally the “it’s free real estate” meme rn.

On her third try/intro, she tells a partial truth. She can give Sam the opportunity to kill Lilith.

Sam didn’t even need a speech from Ruby to say yes, he just immediately demanded it from her, goddamnit.

Sam really doesn’t look good, good lord.

"Okay. What do you want from me?”

“Well, a little patience...and sobriety. Promise me that, and I will teach you everything I know.”

“First thing I learned...I’m a crappy student.”

(How’d he make it through college then? I guess with the psychic things, he was fighting an emotional and moral battle that probably hindered his learning.)

Oh lord, is the sex scene coming up?

Yeah it is, I recognize the outfit Sam’s wearing.

Hmmm, did Ruby lose a loved one as a human? How’d that tragedy unfold? Or this could just be another lie...

Oh christ, the sexual tension is palpable.

(How can the body be warm if she’s technically dead? I’m overthinking it.)

How did Sam not realize he was detailing sex with Ruby??? Why did he think that was necessary to the story????

“I told you I was coming clean.”

“Yeah, but now I feel dirty.” Brilliant comeback, oh my god.

Dean nails it. “So far, all you've told me about is a manipulative bitch who, uh, screwed you, played mind games with you, and did everything in the book to get you to go bad.”

Lilith was in town...

I know it must’ve been a gradual process with Sam, but at what point did he just start forgetting that Ruby was a demon? ‘Cause I sense that it probably happened along the way, and he came to see her more as a hunter helping him out...

It was a trap, what a shocker...

Ruby comes in to save Sam.

Sam, upon seeing Ruby in trouble, can finally use his powers. I can’t fully express how much I resent that.

”Whatever you have to say, she saved me.” Yeeaahh...but at what cost?

“What she said to me...it’s what you would’ve said.” That is like, Grade A manipulation, Sam.

Considering how much they were bleeding, they probably do need the fresh towels.

Ruby 2.5!

Dean can’t spit out a thank you, lmao.

Gotta admit, I love Ruby’s reaction to Dean’s attempt at a thank you.

Poor Anna.

“They’re coming.”

OOOHHHH BRING ON THE CAS!

Dean threw Sam under the bus.

And that’s Ruby’s second time sarcastically calling a decision “peachy”. Nice continuity there.

YYYEEESSS CAS IS HERE

AND HE AND DEAN HAVE MADE EYE CONTACT, HOT DAMN.

“Are you gonna help her?”

“No, she has to die.”

DUN DUN DUN
