Supernatural 5x04: Fallen Idols...

[fajrdrako]

I had no problem with the rest of it, but the last few minutes was worth all the rest of the episode and then some. What I had been hoping for: an honest conversation and rapport between the brothers. Dean stops giving Sam orders (maybe) and Sam stops sniping verbally at Dean (maybe). Letting Sam drive was a good move on Dean's part, though he's shown himself to be generous this way before - I'm thinking of his offering the Impala to Sam in "Good God, Y'All".

1. The multiple levels of irony with regard to Paris Hilton were fun. A whole episode set up to decapitate her...
   
   
2. No Bobby (about whom I don't much care), no Castiel - about whom I care a lot, but this isn't a complaint. I don't need to see Castiel every episode. No, really, I don't. I can handle it.
   
   
3. Loved the cop with his 'rational' theories.
   
   
4. Loved Dean and Sam doing the FBI thing. Makes me all nostalgic.
   
   
5. Now we know that Sam knows Dean broke the first seal. That brief conversation said so many things I'd been wanting to hear.
   
   
6. Loved the scene with Dean under the car, pretending not to be terrified.
   
   
7. Loved seeing Sam and Dean at the table working with two laptops.
   
   
8. According to Wikipedia, Lashi isn't a god, but a language in Burma.
   
   
9. Funniest image in the show: Gandhi attacking Sam. Far funnier than anything about Paris Hilton. Followed by the "fruitarian" conversation. Wikipedia backs Sam up there: "Mahatma Gandhi political and spiritual leader, briefly followed a diet similar to fruitarianism. He and his followers repeatedly discontinued these diets as in the long term they proved unsustainable."
   
   
10. I assume the basis of the show was to parody Jared Padalecki's House of Wax?
