Welcome to this week's episode of Devil's Trap podcast. I'm Diana and we're going to talk about season nine, episode 10.
Bitch (:Road trip.
Jerk (:Which is also the name of the movie that... Yay!
Bitch (:That girth was amazing. Squeeze me, squeeze me. So how are you? What have you been up to? What's the situation?
Jerk (:I'm working a lot and went to Texas Rangers game and they won and got to hang out with the. The mascot. I did not eat a hot dog. We had access to the buffet, so I had primary before the game and then. I almost did, they did and then. They did, and they also had in app order to your seat free hot dog delivery.
Bitch (:Did you eat a hot dog?
Bitch (:I would have still had a hot dog. Do they have a hot dog on the buffet?
Bitch (:Yeah, fuck that, I would eat so many hot dogs.
Jerk (:I got nachos. See, I mean, that was, I got nachos. So and beer delivery to your seat. was pretty good. And the mascot was right there and it was Star Wars night. So there's stormtroopers, which is weird. But anyways, it was a thing. There we go. And yeah, that's that's my I guess that's all I've been really up to.
Bitch (:That's pretty good though.
Bitch (:That is nice.
Jerk (:I don't I don't want to talk about that shit, so there we go.
Bitch (:Yeah, no, no bummer talk, please. Nobody wants a bummer talk because that's not what you're here to podcast for. This is not this is not that podcast. I'm sure there's many podcasts. I am certain of it.
Jerk (:November talk.
Jerk (:No, you're not here for that.
There's plenty bummer podcasts, I am certain. yeah, so that's about it and, you know, keeping busy. How about you?
Bitch (:So we talked about Beetlejuice last time, right? I have no idea. Days of my days are confused. OK, so I saw Beetlejuice, did we? I don't know. We may have. So I'm still having any last time we said because we recorded late. No, we recorded. I saw Beetlejuice on Wednesday, Thursday.
Jerk (:No.
Wait, right, no, I don't know.
Jerk (:I haven't watched it yet.
Yes, the same day we recorded. No, you watched it. You Yeah, we did talk about it and I have not seen it yet.
Bitch (:And we did, but yeah, so we did. Yeah. So I just saw it that day and then recorded. So, since then I have really just been in supernatural land and have been working on a side project for this thing that we'll see if it works out, but yeah. So I've been hiding out in my computer and designing and writing, which is sometimes just the most fun, even though my mic is just moving around on its own.
And maybe it's because next week is San Antonio's Paranormal First. Get your tickets now. I think they're almost sold out, but that's just really hilarious that my mic is just strobing wherever it wants to go. It's so fun.
Jerk (:It's cause you keep calling out the stimulation. That's what it is. Let's fuck him with you. Or the demons. I don't know.
Bitch (:The simulation's pissed that I'm swallowing whatever color. I was like, they're pissed I keep taking the red pills. And I'm like, quit putting drugs in front of me, you know?
Jerk (:I'm gonna take them. God, Lord.
Bitch (:and go to dig them, quit offering. Yeah, I don't know, have I done anything fun? I feel like I have, I honestly have no idea. Everything is just a blur right now. so, yeah, I was supposed to go dove hunting this weekend, but now that's probably not happening because of.
all of the wonderful dramas that's going on. So you birds will live to fly another day. You will not be murdered by me this year. Sorry, little doves. No, guess congratulations little doves. So yeah, I think on that note, speaking of bird murder, after the thing we were so.
Jerk (:Yeah. Yeah.
Jerk (:Let's talk about this episode. my God. I have very little positive to say. Let's talk about Supernatural.
Bitch (:The only thing I can talk about is burn murder. Sorry. That's all I got. just yeah. Yeah. So Road Trip, which was season nine, episode 10 first aired January 14th, 2014 and was directed by the one and only Robert Singer and was written by Andrew Dab.
Jerk (:murder is the most positive thing you got right now. Life's weird guys, life's weird. All right, let's, let's supernatural.
Bitch (:And yeah, funny thing too is I forgot to watch the episode this week and so I had to watch it really quick right before we started and I watched it on super speed, which is always fun. And so this is very, very, very fresh in my head. So let's go.
Jerk (:Did you?
Jerk (:Well, I'll tell you, my brain is mush. have been very, very, very busy this week. And I watched this over several days ago. I watched this several days ago. And literally when I sat down, I'm like, what the fuck did I watch? And like had to read my notes and like it took a minute for it to come back. So we're on opposite ends here and I watched this not long ago. So. Right.
Bitch (:You
so busy I thought I watched this episode.
Bitch (:Well, I thought I was in that place, right? I thought I'm just so tired that I forgot this. And I've had the place where I take my notes because I take my stuff generally. If you want to generally in Google Docs is where most of my notes take and takes place. So I've had all these Google Docs open. So I think my brain was just like, you broke notes and things like clearly you didn't. Yeah. So no, no, no. So instead, when I did watch it, it started off
Jerk (:Jerk (05:34.71)
All right.
Bitch (:with a recap and in that recap were angels and metatron
Jerk (:Abaddon, the angel war and Sam killing Kevin. Boo. Boo. Well, Sam, Samsekeel, who's not Samsekeel. Not Samsekeel? Sambriel.
Bitch (:souls.
there.
Bitch (:I started calling him Sandriel. I think that was one of his names, Sandriel. I don't remember. So yeah, Sandriel killed Kevin. So Sam killed Kevin and Dean is giving him a hunter's funeral.
Jerk (:There we go.
Jerk (:He is. And we've got Bob Seeger in the Silver Bullet Band band playing the famous finals, the famous final scene while, while Dean does this funeral. And he's like, he's just going through Kevin's things and it sucks. And then he flips out and starts throwing things like you do.
Bitch (:Yeah, he finds Kevin's phone and there's a pic of him with Linda fucking Tran and RIP, maybe Linda fucking Tran. And so, but then he gets like, yeah, he's gone to the anger point of grief.
Jerk (:Bye for now.
Jerk (:Yes. So we cut to a pop star getting ready to go on stage and this guy looks like a douchey pale version of Ed Sheeran or something. I don't know. It's really weird. It's so fake.
Bitch (:don't know I kind of feel like he won Eurovision like he just it's it's how like
Jerk (:It's not, it does not look like an American male pop star to me. It's really weird.
Bitch (:It's how people who don't know rock and roll think rock and roll looks.
Jerk (:I guess. Anyways, his name is Cory and he's a dick and he sends his manager away when they find Sam waiting for him in his green room.
Bitch (:TSM snuck in there and then when he sends them away, he's like, bitch, did I stutter?
Jerk (:He does say that. I definitely wrote that down, too. It's like, damn. And it ends up this pop star Corey is actually Thaddeus, another angel, because he was like, you know, I might as well be a god on earth, you know, kind of an attitude about being a pop star. And.
Bitch (:Which is good.
Jerk (:You know, the arena's bonkers, which just also just grossed me out about how people are about pop stars. And there's been all this talk about this lately in media about how pop stars are treated. And it's weird. And I don't get it. But that's OK. Anyways. No, it was just, well, no, but I'm just saying, like, I mean, trust me, I mean, I have to in my line of work, I have to hire security for not big pop stars like on the reg. It's bizarre. But anyways, people are weird.
Bitch (:You're just thinking about that now?
Bitch (:I know people people are strange and highly recommend you know reading slash watching American Gods for ideas about that. So anyways, this weird Cory who's got a lot of songs about baby songs and groupies and he's a dick and he's Thaddeus and we also found out that he was a prison guard and not you know, not to say there is he was a really bad prison guard.
Jerk (:I've read it.
Jerk (:He was a dick prison guard to, to Gadriel and Gadriel's partner or his friend slash lover slash not, I don't know, but that was also.
Bitch (:his friend possible lover. I don't know if that was just a homophobic slur or if that was just him being a dude. But Abner also like, again, guys, it's been a it's been a busy week. So just like cursory looking up of Abner Abner was like in the David and Goliath stories and had some things in there. But that was maybe where Abner comes from. But
Jerk (:Yeah. Abner.
Bitch (:Anyways, I couldn't really find anything on them or and I didn't look at Thaddeus because gross I didn't care about him
Jerk (:Yeah, fuck Thaddeus. Thaddeus is a dick and tries to be all cool guy to Gadriel and then Gadriel's like, nah, we ain't friends and stabs Thaddeus.
Bitch (:He stabs him and then Patelech does some very heavy nostril breathing. He does, he's acting chops. Sorry, I'm not giving you shit, it was really good. Anyways, so Cas then go back to the bunker and Cas shows up and he is all suited up.
Jerk (:Of course he does.
Jerk (:you
Jerk (:Yeah, he's got his suit back. He's got his trench coat on and Dean called him. Dean is packing a bag and he and and Kaz immediately knows something's wrong because the room's all torn up and asks. So Dean tells Castiel what happened and Dean's like, we have to find Sam Gadriel because Sam Driel, whatever he is telling what's yes. Yeah.
Bitch (:He's finally, yeah, he's finally telling someone the truth. And so how long is it? It's episode 10. Yeah.
Jerk (:Yeah, took a minute. And so, but if Dean's like, we got to kill him and but then the vessel will die too. And Dean's like, I'm just upset with myself about all of this. And Cass is like, well, Sam is strong. He can he can just cast the angel out if he were to know what the fuck was going on. So.
Bitch (:Yeah, you just need to give Sam a chance to fight, which he hasn't done this. Sam has been not a participant in any of this at all. So give him the chance to finally just kick out the person inside of him.
Jerk (:Not at all.
Jerk (:No. And Cass is like, do you remember Alfie? Hey, and Dean kind of does, but he's like, he's like, if we can figure out they remember that the demons figured out how to decode the angel brain. So we got to go talk to Crowley and see if we can do that to Sam real. Right.
Bitch (:Stewart!
Bitch (:Right, so that's where they start. They start by going to Crowley, who...
Jerk (:because I want to know how to hack an angel.
Bitch (:Yeah, and Crowley does not want human blood and he also didn't know Kevin was dead. So I find this very interesting when you think about all these things that come out in this episode that were happening around Crowley that he just had no idea because he was just locked up in the file cabinet. Right. So it just I think that's a really interesting thing. Like it's like brought up in this episode. So.
Jerk (:Just sitting there. Yeah.
Jerk (:Yeah, they gotta go fill him in on everything because he's been locked away.
Bitch (:Yeah, he's got to get his exposition.
Jerk (:God, that sounds awful. But then it's like you get on that mental like thing like, OK, so if he like has lives for ever or whatever, then is it really not that long to him? I don't know. Yeah. Either way. And so they're kind of going back and forth. And Crowley is like, look, that is just more evidence that people in Dean's vicinity don't have a lot of lifespan. So. Yeah, yeah.
Bitch (:It's just like a minute, you know, but.
Bitch (:the Winchester's vicinity, right? And honestly, he's not wrong. If you know, it's not just Sam's pain of death, you know, it's in Kevin said this before, you know, he died, if I, you know, whenever I trust you, I get screwed in sometimes some eyes get burnt out. And but yeah, I mean, this
Jerk (:Yup. He did. He gets screwed.
Jerk (:more than screwed.
Bitch (:It's, and this is why it's so hard not to love Crowley, right? It's just cause he's not wrong and we'll see as he goes through this thing, right? And so he offers to go into Sam's mind for a field trip. I hope it's to the bread factory.
Jerk (:And he wants fresh air in exchange for cracking an angel. And he knows that Dean doesn't have a fucking plan B. So.
They need a vehicle to get going to go find him because Sam Drill took the fucking impala.
Bitch (:He took baby and I was like, did we learn that episode? And I just forgot. anyways, but yeah, Sam stole baby. The poor giant baby took baby.
Jerk (:I'm baby. So we've got, next scene is Muffins the dog and her owner are watching Sam with a, or sorry, we see Dean carrying a gas can with Castiel and Crowley because apparently Castiel did have a car and it stopped a few miles away and he didn't know why. Just stop.
Bitch (:inexplicably a few miles away he does it just just all don't know why
Jerk (:because it was out of fucking gas. And it is a beautiful, stunning 1973 Lincoln Continental.
Jerk (:is amazing and I would drive this car.
Bitch (:Crowley asked him if he is a pimp and there is a reason. Yeah, I mean, it's a fucking boat. It's the size of this fucking house.
Jerk (:So cool. And they all get in it and they're driving and Dean makes both of them sit in the back.
Bitch (:Well, and they also like, Kaz and Crowley are really flirting with each other like hardcore. It's just like back, back, back, back, back and forth, back and forth. Just like just channel round. And I think they're kind of maybe fighting over Dean. I'm not sure. But so then, yeah, they have to get into the back of the car where what we find out.
Jerk (:car's airbagged. Dean's flipping switches. So cool.
Bitch (:Well, the thing is like, you know, he had to do it, right? He had to turn it to make that happen. And he just couldn't resist it. He was like, fine, I've got to touch it.
Jerk (:There's switches. There's like a bank of them. For the car to do that, there's a minimum of four switches on the bank, which is next to the dash. And he was hitting those and that is fucking rad.
Bitch (:Yeah, that is fun. So and also is playing some hip hop. you get the? I forgot who was playing, so anyways, you go from that to a bar bar that I would hang out in.
Jerk (:Yeah, well, like just not divey, but just quiet, bar. Yeah, and Metatron is sitting at the bar and drinking some something in a martini glass and Sam Drill arrives and he's. And the bartender is the original vessel for Ezekiel, this very handsome man. Sam's got tablets.
Bitch (:It looks like a divey honky tonk.
Bitch (:And he's getting served by the Spartender.
Bitch (:He is. He is so easy on the eyes. And yeah. Like ecstasy? No.
Jerk (:Metatron is pleased. No. No, not those kind. Sorry. So he's got the tablets from Kevin for Metatron and Metatron is like, awesome. I want to know what the report is. And and Sam Driel is like, yeah, killing Thaddeus was easy. Killing Kevin, not so easy. And Metatron is like, yeah, cool. Thank you for killing Kevin. That was a big test. By the way, I flipped the switch up in heaven. There's no more prophets now.
Bitch (:okay.
Bitch (:So what happened to, so were all the other prophets killed?
Jerk (:I think they just don't become prophets because remember there's only one that's an active profit at a time, right? They just never get activated.
Bitch (:Okay, so then they never get activated. So yeah, I always kind of go back to like Buffy's like chosen shit, right? At the end where she, spoiler alert, where Buffy ends up, you know, igniting the, the show, the Slayer, you know, the Slayer gene or whatever it is. So of course I my mic. But that's how I always kind of think about this with the prophets, right? It's like, you were chosen, but has not been activated.
Jerk (:Yeah.
Bitch (:So they just stays you're thinking it just stays dormant when he hit that switch. Okay, so they don't die. Okay.
Jerk (:Yeah, that's my that's how I read it. That's how I understood it. And Metatron asks them real if he killed Dean and he's like, no, that wasn't told to. And he's like, you should just like take advantage of the situation and done that. Good Lord. Like. What the fuck? Anyways. So anyways, he's got a napkin with a new name on it for Samuel to go kill.
Bitch (:You have some initiative, man. Seize it. Kill your darlings.
Jerk (:But Sandra is not really into this part of it. And Meditron's like, yeah, you just, you need to obey and prove your loyalty. So fucking do it. You're almost done.
Bitch (:And then he like twists it more he mismanipulates him by just like egging him on about his past and who he wants to be and Metatron is no hit Metatron is not good at manipulating people Gadriel is an idiot So he just doesn't see through any of his stuff and then we go get to see this is not how you make a blood bowl, man No, no, ma 'am
Jerk (:Yes.
Jerk (:So we cut Muffins. Water bowl is now her blood bowl. What the fuck? So Muffins is dead. They're using the dog bowl for a for a phone, a blood call.
Bitch (:Muffins did not deserve this.
Bitch (:Okay, maybe, just maybe she killed somebody else and just can only use Muffin's Bowl.
Jerk (:you know this bitch killed my friends
Bitch (:Shut up, it's just better if she killed a person and I don't know why it's better. It's not, it's not, no, I don't know. So the blood bowl is out, it's Muffin's blood bowl.
Jerk (:Well, Muffin's owner either way is a fucking demon.
Jerk (:and the owner is a demon and she is calling Abaddon to report that she saw Crowley.
Bitch (:Not coming to you, I'm back.
Bitch (:So she's working for Abaddon. She's calling my girlfriend. Can I have her number? I'm not calling her through the blood bowl though, that's gross.
Jerk (:I think she's only available on the Blood Bowl Network.
Bitch (:So then we go to our cast Crowley and Dean are at the fucking NSA.
Jerk (:Well, they show it off as Waldorf financial, but apparently this is an NSA post and Crowley has an insider working there because he's like, yeah, the U .S. government listens to everything. I plan it one of my best here, obviously. Obviously. So security guard escorts Crowley only to meet up with Sicily and she's.
Jerk (:She's talking about how hot Castiel is, which is interesting. And Phil's crowly in on what Castiel was up to during his human time and all that.
Bitch (:Yeah, but only angel cast is hot. Human cast is not.
Jerk (:Right. No, no. But Angel Cass, how he got his grace back is hot. Captain Sexy.
Bitch (:because when she's spilling this tea everywhere, is like, she is... Okay, one, she has a satellite. Why does Cecilie get a satellite? I really wish I had my own. We all know this and I'm kind of mad that she's got one, but she's tuned into Angel Radio and she's learned that Casio is slitting fucking throats in order to get crazy.
Jerk (:Yeah. And how, anyway, so the, this, this hooptie is, from the angel that she's, that he slipped through. This is Theo's car, basically.
Bitch (:Yeah, so during this thing she and Crowley are talking about they have to you know, but most of the demons actually haven't chosen sides, you know, they
Jerk (:And she is annoyed in general because she is fucking sending buttloads of data to hell and no one's doing their fucking job and no one's doing shit with all this data she's mining.
Bitch (:and she's doing her fucking job, there's a process. There's a reason the process is in place. So whoever down in hell is fucking up a process, that's on them. You know, these ops are there for a reason. But most of the demons like her have not chosen a side in the Avedon Crowley lore.
Jerk (:Except for the super aggro types, but the rest are really just waiting to see what happens.
Bitch (:So in that spirit, in this week on stands, and I swear we're not.
sponsor bystands if you guys want to we're not going to complain but so there was a new release of the supernatural oracle a hunter's deck a guidebook and it was written by sarah ellen and it is a fun oracle deck with all the characters and both both human demon angel knot object amulet all those types of things they all have possible cards so i have this deck in front of
mean we're going to use this oracle.
to answer some questions. Remember, a medium told me that I had psychic abilities that I needed to do things with. I don't think this is what she meant, but we're going to see. So what we're going to do is we are going to let Diana ask the Oracle cards a question, and then I will I will use Sarah's Oracle guidebook to answer the question. All right. So first, OK, do you want to draw a card and then ask the question?
Jerk (:Yeah.
Jerk (:No.
Bitch (:or you want to... Okay, ask the question, right?
Jerk (:I think I asked the question and you draw a card, right? So first question. Will Abaddon or Crowley rule hell?
Bitch (:All right, so I'm going to shuffle these cards and you tell me when to stop.
Bitch (:So I'm just pulling from the top of the deck and what you have drawn is the angel blade. And thankfully the angel blade is hopefully in the front of this. your guidebook is not, it is alphabetically ordered. I do appreciate that. And this is actually the first one in the guidebook. And so said to have been touched by God, angel blades are powerful weapons yielded by angels and later hunters capable
killing their own kind. Along Silver Dagger with the Triple Edge, these blades could also be used to defeat demons, monsters, hellhounds, and nephilim. They could even kill reapers. Thank goodness Cassio had won the night he went home with the rogue reaper, even if that wasn't what Dean meant when he asked whether he had protection.
Although a weapon like the angel blade can be powerful leverage, it doesn't displace the importance of the person holding it. Skill, resortfulness, determination, and purpose all give a competitive edge. Others may have been afforded more tools or opportunities than you, but that doesn't make them any more worthy. Outer securities can fade away, but your grit and perseverance remain. It's those internal weapons, ones nobody can take from you that make you
Jerk (:Bitch (24:27.496)
unstoppable. So I think we have a problem with your question Diana. And so I think I guess is if depending on whose side you're on, whoever side you are on is who's going to win. whose side are you on? Because that means they're going to have the internal strength to win.
Jerk (:interpret that.
Jerk (:I'm going to go say Crowley.
Bitch (:Okay. So that means that Mr. Crowley has got some internal strength inside of him. So now that we know how these Oracle decks are, we're going to keep our second question the same. Are we changing the question?
Jerk (:There we go.
Jerk (:No. Yeah.
Jerk (:Hmm.
Bitch (:Dun dun dun!
Jerk (:Did it need to be about me then? Man.
Bitch (:Maybe it can be about you, yeah? Or it just had to be very specific. What was the second question you had?
Jerk (:I was going to ask is will there be future seasons of supernatural?
Bitch (:Okay, I think we can ask that. Let's see what happens. Let's just see. Let's see what that tells us. All right, so will there be more?
Jerk (:Or say, not even season, say future iterations of Supernatural. I'll go looser.
Bitch (:Okay, will there be future iterations of Supernatural? Tell me when to stop shuffling these cards.
Bitch (:All right, let's see what our answer is. I say without looking at it that if it is a Winchester, then that means yes. it's a Cassiel. I don't know what that means. So it is a Cassiel. So will there be future episodes of Supernatural? Looking up C is for Cassiel. And I think I'm probably going to skip a lot of the descriptions because I think we all know who he is. Let's see. Ask but.
path blah blah blah. Alright, so when Cassiel needed to resolve the riddle of why six is afraid of seven, he assumed it was because seven is a prime number and prime numbers can be intimidating. Thankfully, Sam came to the rescue on that one. Change can be intimidating too, but remember that fear is merely false evidence appearing real. Take that first brave step and your feet will land right where they should.
So I think if somebody takes that step to make supernaturals happen again, you got, but they've got to be good intent. Nobody can do it for evil. Okay. Nobody make new supernatural for evil.
Jerk (:then it'll happen. if not, somebody's got to somebody has to take the step.
Jerk (:that possible?
Bitch (:I don't know. People have agendas. Don't trust anybody. All right. I think we're going to ask one more thing of the Oracle. I think it's going to be, I think we're just going to see how Diana is just going to. This is a general reading for Diana. Yeah. All right. Diana's future. And what is Diana's future? Future.
Jerk (:Just give me a general reading. general reading. What's happening for Diana?
Bitch (:You have to tell it's the...
Bitch (:Your future is Mr. Dean Winchester. I don't know what that means. Like, does that mean she's doing Dean Winchester? mean, that's, let's see. Yeah. I mean, it just.
Jerk (:I mean, no one's mad at that.
Jerk (:I'm slightly terrified. just gonna say, am I going to die? Am I going to bang it? No, I'm just kidding. think babe would be mad.
Bitch (:So life is full of unknowns and we're so used to immediate answers that we sometimes disregard the lessons to be learned during the period of discovery. Embrace your inquisitive hunter side. Leave no stone unturned and don't forget the pie.
Okay, that's Diana's future pie, which I think we're all down with. I'm kind of jealous of your future. What fucking pie really bad. I've got like that apple pie candle behind me and me eat.
Jerk (:my future. I mean, now I want pie. mean, I don't know.
Jerk (:Don't eat the candle.
Bitch (:After I hit my mic again, I'm sorry guys. I don't just I'm just mopping it right now So again, that was for the supernatural Oracle a hunter's deck and guidebook if you want to get your own copy I know I got mine from stands. I think they're maybe be available elsewhere
Jerk (:Bitch (28:54.448)
That was fun. It's a fun deck. support the family, you know, the SP and it's officially licensed too, which I think is interesting. And I want to know all about that process. Sarah, Ellen, if you want to tell us how you got your merch, I'm sure that's fascinating itself. Anyways. Okay. So Oracle is done. And now we're back to my lovely Crowley who can't get out of his sexy cuffs.
Jerk (:Yeah, he can't. he and Cecily is going to be so helpful and also find the impala for them. Which apparently just ran a red light. They quote, Phallus on wheels ran a red light in Pennsylvania.
Bitch (:and
Bitch (:in Pennsylvania. And then the three amigos right again and then
Jerk (:And in the meantime, we've got the Samuel has arrived in Somerset, Pennsylvania in his in the Impala and sees a man gardening in the front yard. This is Abner. This is this Abner in his vessel, which is Alexander. And this little.
Bitch (:And yeah, and he has a little circus tent and it's amazing. This little child is living her best life until her dad dies, whatever. But I mean, she got to live in like, she got a little circus tent. That's amazing. I wonder if she has a little tightrope.
Jerk (:I know. mean, I don't know if those girls like the way they describe how this is played out. This is not great. Either way we've got
Bitch (:No, she's not going to live a good life. Therapy is going to be pretty big. Those bills are going be very expensive. So anyways, Sam comes up.
Jerk (:Very expensive. Yeah, because he's like, he's like, come back. He's like, my gosh, so good to see you, Gabrielle. But can you come back in a little bit? Because when my wife and my kid are going to the movies. So he does. And Abner is like, yeah, I do customer support in computers. It's like answering prayers, but they pay you for it. And I thought that was hilarious.
Bitch (:And that is not what customer service is is at all. But OK, so he thinks that's great. Not how, but OK.
Jerk (:But he's like, yeah, I was a crappy angel. I abandoned my post and I spent 700 years locked up. And Sam Raels like, hey, by the way, I just fucking killed that is that dick. And Abner's like, maybe you shouldn't have, you know, this is our second chance. Yeah, this is this is our second chance. I'm fucking happy. My vessel was an abusive asshole. But I, Abner, love my fucking family.
Bitch (:Aren't you proud of me?
Maybe just like don't go around killing people. I don't know.
Jerk (:and they love me. I might not be a wise man, but the key to happiness is getting what you want and never letting it go. And there's always a price and it's always worth paying. I don't know. It's a bunch of platitudes, but either way, the cons.
Bitch (:It was the wrong thing to be saying to Gadriel at this point because basically you're giving him cart blanch to kill your ass
Jerk (:Yeah, you are. You're basically giving them excuse to do it. But it's actually kind of like it's almost like kind of like an interesting. I liked hearing this perspective of an angel that fell because everybody else is like freaking the fuck out. Abner's like, this is fucking rad. I was fucked and nothing was good. Well, too. But you know what mean? Like.
Bitch (:Well, yeah, it was like I was in prison and for a very, for 700 years and now I've got a little girl, the circus tent.
Jerk (:yeah. So either way. And then we cut to well, Dean and Cass are at the house and they're walking up and we get Dean caress his baby in front of the house, of course. And and he sees blood on the floor and we find Abner's throat slit. And Sandra is washing his hands and tells Dean that he shouldn't have come.
Bitch (:And sometimes she lets me play with the circus tent.
Bitch (:Poor little Abner.
Bitch (:and the knife. Yeah. And he knows Dean's there. He knows Dean's there. And Dean's just like, dude, you can't just kill my friend and kidnap my brother. Because basically, that's what he's done is he's kidnapped Sam.
Jerk (:Yeah. And Sam Sam Rales is like, I let you live. And he's like, that was a mistake. And anyways, let me have a little fight.
Bitch (:He gets angel flung and then Cas punches him in the face and it's kind of great.
Jerk (:It's really good. At the NSA, Abaddon is like, Hey, Cecily, time to report in. Are you telling me that you help Crowley? The fuck?
Bitch (:We go back to the MSA.
Bitch (:And you listened to all the Americans phone calls and you didn't say anything about it. it was sorry.
Jerk (:She doesn't care about that part. I don't doesn't get it. You know that she doesn't care about that part. She's just and then she's like, wait, you've fully admitted that you're playing both sides. You're not I'm not proud of you. That's not cute. You're fucking dead and kills her.
Bitch (:I'm killing you for being dumb.
Jerk (:So Dean and Kath have Sandra L tied up in this weird space that's kind of like an abandoned warehouse in a weird dentist chair that has like a chin strap and a lot of leather sigils. And it is just.
Bitch (:They're really into that chin strap. That was what they use on Meg and like at least but it just I don't understand what the point of this fucking chin strap is because he can talk right? But it's but it's loose enough so he can talk. I don't know. But they were just like this is a chair we're going to use but
Jerk (:Yeah.
Jerk (:Let's go see they don't move his head, but they don't want him to do this because they're going to drill into his fucking head.
I don't know, that doesn't make sense.
Bitch (:In Sam's head, Sam Gerrold says Crowley is in chains too and that's hilarious and also sexy. And then Sam Gerrold threatens Sam, but Sam is locked away in this dream that I think is amazing. And I want to see the episode where there is a case of ghouls and cheerleaders. It is, that is definitely a, that actually literally is a Psycho Billy song. That is literally an ecromantic song.
Jerk (:It's a psychobilly song.
Jerk (:It's just like really song. Ghouls and cheerleaders. case of ghouls and cheerleaders. Yes.
Bitch (:Yeah, I'm just like, I already had another that's my next Psychobilly album joke in here, but it's not, it's not up yet. It's just, it came early. So like my date, no, sorry. All right. So Dean is also then just like, what's up, man? Why are you doing this?
Jerk (:There you go.
Jerk (:Yeah, it's like we are supposed to be you said you were one of the good guys and. Anyway, so. Crowley is like, we're going to get this nail thing just push in your brain.
Bitch (:And he pegged Sam's brain.
Jerk (:I won't say that. That was upset. That's upsetting.
Bitch (:He's go fucked him.
Well, you saw, I wouldn't have said school fucks if you hadn't said the packing was upsetting.
Jerk (:He penetrated his brain through his temple and then he's adding another in the forehead. Then he does the other temple and there's a lot of sandraels screaming and there's blood and these giant nail things that he's pushing into his skull. And I don't like it. It's very distressing to watch.
Bitch (:Yeah, so Dean and Cas go into a corner to comfort each other.
Jerk (:Because they're like, fuck this, because nobody wants to be distracted from a demon shoving needles into his brother's Reasonable. And Dean apologizes for kicking Cass out of the bunker and how he got played and cast like, I've got played to trying to save heaven. Yeah. So they're both dumbasses and Castiel doesn't want to be a dumbass. He's like, no, we're just too trusting. You're both dumbasses.
Bitch (:Yeah, it was fucked.
Bitch (:We're both dumbasses.
Bitch (:Aw, you're dumbasses. You got played, you stupid, stupid boys. well, yep, cool, look at this.
Jerk (:Crowley is like, hey, watch this. He's unconscious. I can wiggle this needle and he just says his name over and over again now. It's kind of cool.
Bitch (:Yeah, and then we find out what he's saying, you know, besides calling up cell phone carriers is Gadriel. And Cassiel is like, yo, this is the dude that led evil into the garden. And then he blames Gadriel for the all of the world's problems. And I think you've gone a little too far. He's just like, he's the reason for the apocalypse. Like,
Jerk (:Mm -hmm.
Jerk (:Well, I mean, in theory. Well, it's all but it all ties back to the fall of man and sin, original sin, right? This original sin. And then that is what created demons in hell. And that's what made God mad eventually in living. And then that's what led to. What you don't think you think this isn't that directly connected?
Bitch (:think that's a little much. think like, you know, like, I think that's a that's the brain. I don't think that those correlations may be a little much to the point though, where he does yell, you ruined the universe, you damn son of a bitch. And I do want to yell that at somebody at some point in my life, it may be possible the way the simulations going. So yeah, so the acupuncture continues.
Jerk (:Yeah, mean, fair. Yeah. And Crowley twists around a little more and we get Gadrella awake. He's like, you'll never find Sam. Blah. I've been through worse and I've got all the time in the world. And Dean's like, fuck this. Plan B. Castiel, you possess him. Get in there and tell Sam what's going on. And God's like, I would. It's a good plan, except I can't because I need permission to possess somebody because I'm an angel.
Bitch (:Why didn't y 'all talk about this before you were in front of the fucking angel that was possessing your brother? Like you were all just like in the corner making out like you got like what the fuck were you talking about?
Jerk (:They didn't they don't they don't talk about shit obviously
Bitch (:Plans, need to make multiple plans and where's your fucking playbook? God damn it. All right, so, but then Crowley offers plan C, which is Crowley, which I like, clan Crowley.
Jerk (:playing Crowley. And guess what? He can possess someone without permission. So save Sam and let me go. And that's his deal he offers. So Dean's like, fine, that's all we got. Fine, fine, Fucking cast, off Sam's anti -possession tattoo. Do it. Do it.
Bitch (:Probably faster than laser.
Jerk (:It was way faster than laser. I've had laser tattoo removal. It's not that fast.
Bitch (:And then do you have Crowley's line written down because I can repeat it for you. don't want to be inside your brother any longer than I have to. I'm not one for sloppy seconds. See, it's better when I say it in that annoying voice. Yeah, so Crowley does not want to be inside Sam any longer than he has to.
Jerk (:I'll let you do it.
Jerk (:you
Jerk (:Dean tells Crowley their, for lack of a better word, safe word, so that Sam knows that this is the drop everything and run.
Bitch (:I love this show.
Bitch (:Yep.
Bitch (:I guess it's not safe word. I think it's opposite a safe word. The stranger danger word.
Jerk (:That's a danger word? It's a danger word. Danger.
Jerk (:Yeah. And Crowley's like, yeah, eat me. Bye. And he read any red, which then he read Cox smokes out into guy rail's mouth. So it's kind of funny.
Bitch (:Eat me! It is so hot.
Jerk (:And we cut and we see now we're in Sam's dream that is that he's poked into.
Bitch (:Well, yeah, so but yeah, the we have a demon and an angel have now walked into Sam
Jerk (:Yeah. And Sam's researching in the bunker talking about a ghoul chomping on dead cheerleaders. Cheerleader, it wasn't me. anyways.
Bitch (:Who killed the children?
This vlog's not problematic at all. So anyways, he's just working this case.
Jerk (:Yeah, he does work in the case and Crowley shows up and he says the word and Sam's like, what the fuck are you doing?
Bitch (:Are you afraid to say it three times? Will you say three times? You're in love with Poughkeepsie? Poughkeepsie, Poughkeepsie, Poughkeepsie.
Jerk (:Yeah, I don't want to say it in Pippuski. It's weird. It's a weird word choice. I guess that's why you pick a word like that.
Bitch (:Yeah, that's what you definitely need, of the spit guard on your mic. So Crowley says poo kipsy and it doesn't work. So instead he has an alternate solution.
Jerk (:And he's like, Dean sent me you're possessed by an angel. You're packed. This is packed away in your own mind. And I'm here to break you up. Let's fucking go.
And Sam and Sam's like, seriously? And Crowley says, let's do this the fun way. And that's when he gets to shoot him. And obviously, Sam's not hurt because this is in his fucking head. So that's how he's convinced.
Bitch (:And he shoots him.
Bitch (:Yeah.
Bitch (:And then Crowley says something that's interesting and I think it's a it's a lore thing that we've had before on here that when you were in possession that you would always can see what is happening even like even if he's just not remembering so you can always pull out considering all the shit that well not only Gadriel did but thinking if you were possessed by a by a demon
Jerk (:Yeah, which is upsetting.
Jerk (:A demon doing real bad shit. Awful. So yeah, so he's packed away. So he's not really seeing this. But if he thinks about it, he has seen everything and he's witnessed it all and he can remember it. So Crowley forces Sam to think and remember and Sam does and he remembers killing him.
Bitch (:And then he tells him he's he's basically becomes Sam's best motherfucking cheerleader. And as he's yelling at him to take control Sam, he's Yeah.
Jerk (:Mm.
Jerk (:Blow it up, blow it up and cast that punk -ass holy roller out.
Bitch (:Amen. So you cast that punk ass holy ruler out. But Gadriel is here back as this hot bartender vessel. my god, you know how much like tips that dude would get like, I know you're real person.
Jerk (:Yeah. And Gabrielle's like, what you're going to this isn't going to work. What do you think is going to happen here? And Crowley just punches him. Yeah. And Gabrielle fights back. They get a little fight and blah, blah, blah. So Crowley and the Gabrielle vessel are fighting and Sam jumps in and gets thrown to. And anyways, Gabrielle is just like, Sam, you just have to cast him fucking out.
Bitch (:I'm gonna be a hero. Hero.
Bitch (:Go Civ! Go Civ!
Jerk (:You just have to fucking cast him out. so Sam gets on top of gets on top of Gadriel.
Bitch (:Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge Dodge
Jerk (:Yeah
Jerk (:Who's got a hose? That's a thing. Anyways, and then he says, the hell out. No, get the hell out. And we get a white, blue flash of light and it flies out of Sam's mouth.
Bitch (:Yeah, yeah. So Sam pukes out Gadger Owl and just like woo and just like anti -cox anti -reverse cox mox. And so. Kind of just at the moment a cat jumps up, so yeah. All right, so then we go back to our favorite bar.
Jerk (:It is.
Jerk (:Is this like a bad angel hairball?
Jerk (:That's really funny. Well, yeah, where Metatron is hanging out by himself and now he's five glasses in and he is upset because whoever is supposed to meet him is late. And we see our lights flicker and our glass breaks and Gadriel is back in the old Gadriel.
Bitch (:They're late.
Bitch (:So once you say yes, I mean, and I know like no spoilers, whether or not this happens in futures. But at this point, though, like with Gadriel, just be like, cool, come back. Not Gadriel, but Gadriel's bartenders name, I can't remember his real the vessel. Yeah.
Jerk (:I don't know. And he just said the vessel, the vessel body. He's just like, yes. I mean, so is he like talking in his head and is like, I'm an angel. Let me in. He's like, yes. I don't know. It's very weird.
Bitch (:It is weird, but Gadiel had Winchester trouble.
Jerk (:He did. So in back in the fucking warehouse or whatever, Redcock smokes out of Sam into Crowley. So Crowley got out, too. So Crowley kept his word and did not keep possession of Sam. And Dean and Kath are pulling all the nails and needles and unbinding Sam. That's a hurt, too.
Bitch (:See?
Bitch (:Let's probably relieve when you you get unacupunctured. This is so good. Yeah. Well, and then like, yeah. So how I guess Cas heals those. I assume I don't. Yeah.
Jerk (:I don't know, this is more like more than acupuncture. Ugh.
Jerk (:Yeah, he does. He puts his hand on there and heals it. And what's happening in the meantime is a black Lincoln pulls up with Abaddon.
Bitch (:BAM BAM BAM BAM
Jerk (:And it's not good. he's, Crowley is like, look, know, Dean asked him, he's like, are you good guy? And he's like, the goodest guy you've got. And Dean's like, OK, you know, next time we're square now, next time we see each other, you're fucking dead. And Crowley's like, I love you too. And Dean, Sam and Castiel are able to escape.
Bitch (:So Crowley has let them escape and then he just slinks into his chair like he is the king of the world
Jerk (:But he has the kiss because he is the king of hell. And he says, and Abaddon comes in with her to like demon henchmen and she tells them to bring she tells them, bring me his head and they hesitate. He's like, yeah, see, they're only loyal to a point. You don't get this. You you know, this is not how this fucking works. I, you know, I feel their pain. You might have like your whole like fucking, you know,
Bitch (:Yeah, it's there.
Jerk (:some idiots that like fucking follow you. But that's not really how this shit goes. Daddy's fucking home. And she's like, no, hell don't want you.
Bitch (:And he is just like, you don't know how to talk to the average demon, right? So if you're going to campaign, this is how you can campaign bitch. Everyone gets a virgin. All the intros you can eat. That's how you do this shit.
Jerk (:Right.
Jerk (:heart.
Jerk (:hearts and minds, hearts and minds. And he calls her the world's angriest ginger or Crowley's team, where everyone gets to say the virgin and then the entrails. And he's like, yeah, henchmen demons, go spread the fucking word. Go tell everybody. Did you get, if you are with me, poof, I'm out.
Smart.
Bitch (:Yep, so Cali is now free. The campaign is on and may it end in less blood bath than the other and.
Jerk (:Which I will say that we both commented while we are not going to talk politics. We did both comment how amusing it is to have this campaign that Crowley has now formally announced taking place while we are facing our own campaign in our in the US right now. It was slightly amusing. was like, it was like there was a debate this week. We've got them talking about hearts and minds and promising things to people.
Fairly amusing. I was like, this is apropos timing at least.
Bitch (:fairly amusing. Yeah, you know, honestly, probably would rather watch this than any debates. So we go from this to a we're back on a dock, right sitting on the dock of a bay and cast is healing fine.
Jerk (:and
Yeah, and Sam is feeling better, but it's going to take some time. And that's what Cass is talking about. And but Sam is pissed at Dean. Dean lied again. Sam was ready to fucking die because he remembers everything now. He remembers and we all remember back when he after the trials, he was walking to death. He was like, no, death. You're right. I'm fucking ready. This is what's the right thing to do at this time. I'm tapping out. did what had to be done. I'm good. I'm done. And
Bitch (:Yep. He says, I was willing to die and you let me be possessed by some psycho angel, which is the name of my next Psycho Billy album, which is why I was waiting to get to.
Jerk (:Dean.
Jerk (:Anyways, like, was that your nickname? Whose nickname was that in the early 2000s or late 90s? don't know. Anyways. Psycho Angel. know. I was painted on somebody's jacket for sure. But anyways, and which is true, like he's pissed and he like and he blames himself for Kevin, because even though he had no control over himself, he
Bitch (:Whose jacket was psycho angel painted?
Jerk (:was his body and he remembers doing it and he has to fucking live with that now. And that's Dean's fault. So he's mad. And that is true. And that fucking snowballs on his anger of Dean. Here and Dean's like, no, no, that blood's on my hands. I'm the one that fucked this up and I'm going to find Gad. I drill on my own. Everybody gets close to me does die. So I get it. And that's all there is to it. Poison. It's driving me out of my mind.
Bitch (:Poison. Poison.
Bitch (:Yeah, but he's basically just throwing the world's biggest pity party. It's all my fault and blah, blah, blah. Yeah, it is his fault, but like it is my fault and therefore nobody can be around me because I'm going to like everybody dies who near me. So I just can't, might as not be around anybody. That's not, that's, that's not the same, right? Like the, the sub -team responsibility for your actions. That's just feeling sorry for yourself.
Jerk (:Yeah, and he doesn't get you because it's all his - it is his fault. He needs to buck up.
Jerk (:Bleh.
Jerk (:BAH!
Jerk (:No, he's not taking responsibility. Yeah, this is pity party, not responsibility, sir.
Bitch (:I think Sam sees that, right? He's just like, go, I'm not going to stop you, but that's not the problem.
Jerk (:No, it's not. And so Dean leaves in baby and Castiel and Sam are standing on the pier. That's it.
Bitch (:in their rain.
Bitch (:he goes off the rain.
Jerk (:The fuck. God needs a bitch sometimes.
Bitch (:He is. I do have a casting couch. OK, so let's go to that and I'll get my brain out of the just picturing Sam's long legs stretched out. I guess he'd amnesias as well, but both of them like their legs in the front seat of that that car. Like at least they would get him just like you see the side like, I can stretch out my legs in here. I just feel like that happens. Anyways. All right. So casting.
Jerk (:I do.
Jerk (:Huh?
Jerk (:Yeah, so we've got our cast. So we've got Alexander Sarver is played slash Abner was played by Dan Payne PAYNE. He actually has done a lot of stunt work, including one of the ninth museum movies, Underworld Awakening, The Predator, Sonic the Hedgehog.
He's been in episodes of shows like Smallville, Once Upon a Time in Wonderland and Once Upon a Time, I Zombie, Flash and multiple times on that show Virgin River. He was the handsome executive in It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie. He was also a weatherman in The Muppets Wizard of Oz. So somehow he's tied in with the Muppet world. I always appreciate that.
He was a reoccurring character and did stunts on Stargate SG -1. He was Dollar Bill in The Watchmen. He was Matthew in Cabin in the Woods. John in The Good Witch series on Hallmark. And Wadjet in Star Trek Beyond the movie. Beast in The Descendants movies. kids movies on the partial. They're not fully animated, but they're. No, I'm just making clear.
Bitch (:not the movie starring Milo and Bill going on adventures.
Jerk (:He was a puppeteer, like not a puppeteer, but that was his character in Crank Yankers. They're like over like 40 times and has done a ton of Hallmark movies.
Bitch (:You
Bitch (:I wonder if they're familiar with his crank -hackers, Wra.
What a weird crossover!
Jerk (:Crank anchors to Hallmark movies. Yeah. Cecily was played by Brenna O 'Brien. She's actually done a ton of voice work, including like the Inuyasha anime and the Dragon Ball Z episodes. So ton of voice work is mostly what her background's in, interestingly enough. And then Corey, fattiest, our pop star from the beginning of the episode was played by Wesley McInnis.
Bitch (:you
Jerk (:He's been in episodes of Vampire Diaries, Smallville, 100, I, Zombie and More. Plus he was the bully in the 2017 Power Rangers movie.
Yeah. Yep, there we go.
Bitch (:Super fun. All right, so this episode, so, huh.
Jerk (:I will say that it's a I really like I'm glad it's like there's good stuff. There's like some shit that got resolved and then shit that was infuriating. Does that make sense?
Bitch (:Yeah, I feel like this was a what happens when we get to episode 10 of a season and there's a whole bunch of plot points that we realized we kind of fucked ourselves on. And so we've got to resolve them and write some exposition and remind people like, yeah, we had to retell everybody why this happened. And no, no, no shade. You got to do that. But I didn't feel like. I like.
Jerk (:Yeah.
Bitch (:I felt like the reason that was there, which is the perfectly good reason to have a television show, was to move the season along. not, you know, that's the perfect reason to have that.
Jerk (:Yeah, well, they had to I think feel like at this point in that season, like you were saying, they had to do something like one of these things that a Sam possessed Sam couldn't keep murdering folks at some point. Like if he did that many, I don't think there's a coming back from that. Right. Well, that too.
Bitch (:Well, and how long could you not have Sam Winchester, right? And I think, and I think that's something, no spoilers that we may explore and, other seasons or other characters, you know, and we kind of have a little bit, but you know, like that possession, how long can we handle? Yeah. How long is it tolerable? How long does it ruin the character? How long do we want to see Patella with this like strong brow acting of Sam, you know, Sam Zekiel.
Jerk (:How long is that tolerable for a character?
Bitch (:No one can see Diana's, she's doing some strong, she's doing strong brow, whiskers, and swear.
Jerk (:a strong brow and some nose flaring. Anyway, so there, you know, I think that that's a big part of it. I think that Dean had to come clean at some point because you knew this shit was not going to work last long term. These secrets were too much both with Cass and with Sam and fucking crowd with everybody, everybody, these secrets and the secrets got fucking Kevin killed at the end of the day. So that's where we're at. And and so I had to get.
with Kevin dying, it was kind of a catalyst to unravel all the lies.
Jerk (:sad about this.
Bitch (:still sad about Kevin.
Jerk (:Yeah. Yeah.
Bitch (:Anything else? know. At least cats got a good car.
Jerk (:Yeah, it is.
Bitch (:All right. It's good for now. All right. On that note, cheers, jerk.
Jerk (:Yep. Cheers, bitch.
