spn 7.09 "How to Win Friends and Influence Monsters"

[the_milky_way]

Hello Crowley...
Dick. It's a stupid name but it's sorta fitting.

Dark woods and beast in it. Well, it sure as hell feels like a 'usual' SPN episode right from the beginning. Cool...

What is this? A luxury tent? Sounds of nature when they are in nature? Ridiculous.

Uhm... Not cool.
Ewww.
This is nature sounds indeed... Ew.

Cameron Bancroft again.... yay...

They really are screwed these days.

"Stop trying to wrestle with the big picture, son. You gonna hurt your head." LOL Bobby.

Poor Dean, so fed up with everything. Understandable though.

Jersey Devil. Oh they wanted to go there for years.

"When was the last time you saw a rogue bear string up his own pinata."

LOL... I love how Dean refers everything geeky and needs an explanation to Sam. And of course Sam knows what a glamper is.

Ranger Rick... their faces. Awesome.

On a side note, Sam's sideburns are kind or ridiculous this ep again.

Sam has a hard time not laughing into Dean's face when the waiter goes all annoyed on him.

Wow, the waiter... Big Bird, Ken Doll and Creepy Uncle.. Oh boy.
Turducken. Okay.

Bobby... LOL
"Two birds shoved into each other like that. Should play God this way."

Is it me or is Bobby even more snarky these days?

Bobby taught them out to trace tracks. Awwww.. another piece of 'family' history.

The Ranger is sort of stupid isn't he?
Oh and he's in the focus of the 'monster'.

I have a thing for Sam shouting and being all growly.

Wow.. indeed. Nice shot.

Uhm...okay. What the hell?

Oh Dean...

Ew... okay, right now I'm glad I'm not hungry or eating anyhting. Of course Dean's hungry.

Sam flinches. So there are still things making them uncomfortable Nice to know.

And look at Dean.. he's hungry now. Guess the whiskey is helping.

Dean and his sandwich. He's in love.
Sam's face is awesome, though.

What's up with Dean? He doesn't care at all. Oh boy.... Sam got a clue just now.

It's like Dean's high and not caring at all. He's a happy camper right now.

"I think you pissed off my sandwich."

Ewww...

Turn everyone into an idiot... hehe. But still Ewww.

"If I wasn't so chilled out right now I'd puke." And his face. Hilarious.

Sam asking Bobby if he thinks Dean's okay. Man, Sam's so worried and he blames himself.

Yeah, they worry about each other so much.

"You always were one deep little son of a bitch." Awww Bobby.
I like those silent moments. It's those little things that create more continuity.

Oh the waiter. Guess that's the next step towards becoming a zombie.

Leviathan. Wow.

Hello Cameron. Nice to see you back even if you are one of the bad guys.

They are using people as lab rats. Very perfide. I wonder what their real plan is here. This is big and it's really bad.

"I just got drugged by a sandwich."

"You are starting to talking like one of them dead ones."

Bobby.... he doesn't want to lose any more people. Especially not the Winchesters. Man, he's become even more of a father figure than John ever was. He cares so much about the brothers.
I like how he talks to them.


The rise of Dick. Seriously? Wow okay...

Leviathans really chose influential people.

Crowley hating Dick... This kinda funny. Especially with the way Crowley loves to use innuendo.

This is damn creepy and so very nauseating. very much so.

So people under the influence are complacent and don't realize what's going on around them. Not cool at all.

The boss is pissed.
Publicity is bad.For them and their plans.

What's going on?
Ewww... eww... Eating themselves as punishment... urgh.

Sam and Dean the cavalry, with soap. This is still ridiculous but awesome at the same time.

Yes, sure... tell Bobby to do something and he does it... when a Leviathan tells him... right, didn't think so.

Bobby... watch out.

This is not working on Dick. At least not the way it works on the others. Shit.

They can't kill them.

Bobby?? What?
No... No... What.
Come on, a cliffhanger? Seriously? That's so mean.

I loved this ep. It was faced. paced with a good story and great one-liners. The interaction was great, between all three of them and I liked that Bobby got quiet moments with both of the boys. And yeah, I think if there's someone who can talk sense into them it's Bobby.

This felt like a good old SPN ep with the new major story line added in.. in a good way. I like how they actually manage to do that this season (safe for one episode) and how it all fits together. They seems to be looking more on the details again and not forget which story they started telling. It works very well for me.

The Leviathans as bad guys really work for me as well.

And yeah, the boys are so caught up in each other and their worries that there isn't really a life for them apart from each other... that much is pretty clear now. And the way Dean grumbled about a suicidal world and how they can't really do anything about it shows how fed up he really is. And Sam's just glad that his crazy is 'under one umbrella'. Oh boys, you make my heart break for you.

Prewiev. wow.. this is going to be heartbreaking. And I guess there'll be another cliffhanger, seeing at it is the mid-season finale. I also think that the writers manage to kee the fans on their toes this season with killing fan favorites but letting the fans hang in the open about th question if those characters/actors will be back or not.

I love how Dean refers everything geeky and needs an explanation to Sam. And of course Sam knows what a glamper is. I loved that moment so much, I thought I was the only one! :D

Stoned!Dean was hilarious XD

And I really like the Leviathans, they have plans and hard to get! I kinda like Dick too, I love a well played villain! <3

Oh boys, you make my heart break for you. So true! ;_;

I hope you have a great day, hun! *hugs*

I loved that moment so much, I thought I was the only one! :D
Nope, no the only one. It made me really happy. :)

God, stoned!Dean was just awesome. The way he didn't care and his comments... Just yeah... :)

Yes, a well-played villain is very important. This way the story becomes interesting.

Thank you. I had a good day.. for once. Hope yours was good as well.
*hugs back*

I totally agree. One of the best things this season, imo, is how everything fits together and the overall story-arc is worked into (almost) every episode. Last season had a few really good standalone episodes, but the overall story was kinda confusing at times (I still don't understand why grandpa was brought back, really) and not dealt with consistently enough. I feel like they learned from last season's mistakes and really improved this season.

This episode really had some great scenes. I loved the interaction between the boys and Bobby, and lol, Dean cracked me up.

I think for the first time ever I'm not really sure Bobby will survive. They're being a little unpredictable this season - which is AWESOME. And yeah, I'm pretty sure there'll be a huge cliffhanger next episode too!

[the_milky_way]

Yes, I think they've really learned from last season's mistakes. And I was never a big fan of the angel story lines so I'm not missing those at all. And I agree about last season's storyline, it was a tad confusing sometimes but I did like soulless!Sam. :)

The interaction between the boys and the boys with Bobby was just awesome this ep. It worked so well.

Again, I agree... this is really the first time I think Bobby might not make it. But unpredictable can b good for the show. I guess they'll really get their Sundance Kid & Butch Cassidy ending.

I haven't see the preview cause I wanna stay spoiler free but if they kill off Bobby I'm not gonna be pleased... XD LOL

[the_milky_way]

The preview didn't tell much.. :)
Well, I guess we'll know about Bobby in the new year. I have the feeling that there will be a cliffhanger in the next episode as well.
