radiumgirl I deleted my previous entry because it was clearly written after several glasses of wine. I now present you with coherency.
Firstly, I GOT LUCY THE STAYPUFT MARSHMALLOW CAR. It's the longest name I've ever given a car, mostly because several people assisted in the naming process, and they all refuse to call it anything but what they personally chose for the name. Lucy the Staypuft Marshmallow Car is a cream (yeah, that's the official name for the color) 2005 PT Cruiser. Owen took one look at him and said, "It looks like a marshmallow."
I said, "I have a friend in New Jersey who has a friend who has a car called the Marshmallow. I can't in good conscience steal the name for my own ride."
"Fine. I'm calling it Staypuft then."
"Fine."
Lucy is actually short for Lucifer. I picked that part of the name because, ultimately, I couldn't find a co-signer and after I sold my soul, my first-born, and handed over my handy-dandy demon-killing knife, we were in business.
Actually, I can't complain. The dealer I worked with was amazingly nice and sure, he probably just wanted to sell the damn car, but I was still touched by his attention to details. Like, initially, the bank financing Lucy was straight-up "No. Co-signer or no deal." Then the bank was like"Ok. But you only have 48 months to pay it off." I feel like if my dealer just wanted to sell the car, he could have stopped with that and been happy, but he fought for a 60 month loan and a lower interest rate so that my payments aren't ridiculous and I was really touched by that. He didn't have to do that.
I sometimes worry that I'm a gullible schmuck. Whatever.
AND THEN IT WAS WIN-FEST. I'll put all of my squeeing and ranting under a cut in case any of yinz haven't seen TEH AWESOMEZ yet and want to remain spoiler-free.
I loved the beginning montage. I liked the contrast between Hunter!Dean and Domestic!Dean. I loved the song choice even if it wasn't AC/DC and the completely wrecked expression on Dean's face when he woke up on the morning had me in tears before the freaking title card even went up. I thought it was a nice nod towards the fact that Dean is trying to move on and trying to be happy, but I wouldn't necessarily say he's "okay." And even though we knew it would all be there, I was pleased to see the devils trap under the front mat and the holy water under the bed.
I don't know if I like the new title card. I like the blue, but I was pushing for the green and the glass? I don't know. Maybe it'll grow on me.
The bit with Sam testing himself cracked me up. I'm not sure why because honestly, it wasn't exactly a humorous scene. "I was expecting, I don't know, a hug? Some holy water in the face, something!" I LOLed.
With that said...Sam. Sam SAM. It hurts to watch Sam. He's unsettling and creepy and he makes me uncomfortable (in a good way.) I'm intrigued with what the writers are going to do with him, though I'm holding out for the return of Puppy!Sam at some point. I really hope he's just shell-shocked or brain-washed or in the middle of some kind of breakdown. I don't want this to be Sam forever because, honestly, it's not Sam.
I love Lisa. I loved the scene with her and Dean on the steps at Bobby's. HI BOBBY! NICE LEGS! I was disappointed when Dean didn't go with Sam at the end, but not enraged, and I understand why he stayed. I wouldn't mind Lisa and Ben showing up from time to time throughout the season. I want to see Dean on the road with Sam and I want a compelling enough reason to motivate him to leave (since SAMMY'S BACK didn't seem to cut it this time around...nor should it) but I don't want Lisa and Ben to go away forever.
I'm not a fan of the Campbells. I'm glad it's been implied that they're the Baddies, but I want the reveal to the boys to come sooner rather than later because I really hate them. They need to go away forever. I'm also sick of people dicking around with the boys. I almost feel like they're using Sam for something and dammit, LEAVE SAM ALONE.
And Sammy, sweetie? We need to talk about this: "You wanted a family. You have for a long time. Maybe the whole time. You only gave it up because of the way we lived."
You still don't get it, do you? YOU'RE SO DUMB SOMETIMES, SAM. You were Dean's family and he wanted you. Even now, with Lisa and Ben, he wants you (ok, and Lisa and Ben) and there's no reason he can't have everything. I don't like that tone you took during "goodbye," young man. You acted like you were never going to see each other again, like you had no intention of seeing Dean again.
GO STAND IN THE CORNER AND THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
You know what? Dean? Go join him. You two have alot of catching up to do.
