Supernatural 4x22: Lucifer Rising...

[fajrdrako]

Oh happy, happy day. What a happy fan I am. All the things I wanted to happen, happened. But not in a straightforward or predictable way.

1. Dean did not kill Sam, but forgave him and tried to help him.
   
2. Sam was sorry and cleaved to Dean in the end.
   
3. Castiel the angst-torn Angel decided to help Dean in defiance of heaven and all the other angels.
   
4. Lucifer rose, raising the stakes. This is particularly satisfying because the Winchester brothers are both to blame: Dean for breaking the first seal, Sam for breaking the last.
   

I think I loved everything that happened, and lots of little details that aren't big things like the above, but pieces of story:

• Angels trapping Dean in a pretty room with a harp and a picture of St. Michael.
  
• All sorts of good lines, but the best must be, "God has left the building."
  
• Dean breaking the white angel figure.
  
• Bobby chewing out Dean for self-pity.
  
• Sam wanting Dead when the going got tough.
  
• Sam's eyes going black.
  
• Dean pounding at the church doors. (Too late, too late, too late...)
  
• Dean's impassioned speech to Castiel about humanity.
  
• Castiel writing in blood on the wall...
  

I know I'm forgetting all sorts of things because I'm tried, but that's fine for a short list.

And best of all: Castiel, Castiel, Castiel.
