SUMMARY
"'Dean, you gotta hold on.' After the crash, Dean's spirit wanders the hospital corridors as his comatose body hovers at the brink of death and a Reaper tries to lure him into eternity."
ORIGINAL AIRDATE
September 28, 2006
Little Things I Noticed
*I didn't notice before that Sam sensed Dean way before he tells his dad. He actually quotes Dean's "Get a Hoodoo priest to work his mojo" line to John. I hadn't noticed that the first time through.
*Tessa created the mother and dying daughter - I hadn't noticed that before either. I thought they were real and she was maybe possessing the girl or just taking her likeness or something.
*Lore - Demons can possess reapers? That's a little weird. And apparently Reapers can work their magic the other way, too? It's not just killing, but they have complete power over life and death?
*Sam's computer is totally smashed
*John knows what Azazel did to Sam.
Things I Liked About this Ep
*Everything?
*Reapers! <3 <3 <3 reapers. I'd say they were my favorite monster, but they're not really a monster at all.
*The acting. This was an incredible ep. I was near teras a bunch.
*John's sacrifice was so touching, especially since he never told the boys - although of course they find out. Especially after Dean's freak out at him (although John didn't hear) about what a horrible father he was for sitting there and watching him die.
*Tessa. Love her. Love the way she tries to gently get Dean to accept his fate. Comes soo close to succeeding, too.
*Sam and John's relationship - fighting to the end, but Sam is utterly devastated when he finds him.
*Honestly, there's very little in this ep that I didn't like.
*The ouija board. LOL, that was great. And useful. Good thinking, Sam.
Things I Didn't Like About this Ep
*It ended? Honestly, I can't think of anything. This was a beautiful, moving ep. What a start to Season 2!
