Well, I guess I'll just summarize the last ten minutes or so. After the fabulous montage of Sam becoming John Winchester spending three months hunting the trickster (and apparently killing lots and lots of other bad things along the way, and doing badass shit like removing his own bullets from his chest and sewing them up and sending all the Samgirls into rapture by revealing some nipplage as he sews himself up), and we see that an obsessed Sam is very neat and orderly about his obsession (his walls are covered with neatly arranged articles, rather than haphazard ones), and Bobby's phone calls become more and more concerned and plaintive....
Bobby calls and says he's found the trickster, and when Sam gets there Bobby hugs him but he's so broody and obsessed he doesn't hug back (ouch) and then Bobby tells him this is their last shot to summon the trickster for 50 years, but oops, they need a gallon of fresh blood, and Sam's like "Ok, let's go kill someone for it" and Bobby's like "Woah, there, Sam, I am so disappointed in you becoming psycho just because Dean is dead," and Sam's like "whatever" and so Bobby, showing he really is secretly a Winchester at heart, offers his own life for Dean's, and at first Sam's like, "No, I can't kill you, Bobby! Are you crazy?" and Bobby and all the watching fangirls say "Um, Sam, you're the one acting crazy, and p.s. thank god you're not so far gone you'd actually kill the one remaining person you care about on the planet for Dean," except then it looks like Bobby talks him into it. (And there is much sobbing in fandom).
And then when it looks like Sam's really going to kill him, he reveals that he knows Bobby's the trickster, and then kills him, only there are 5 seconds where we're all convinced that he actually just killed Bobby by mistake, and there goes with the sobbing again, but NO! It really was the trickster, trying to teach Sam that he really, really, really has to learn to let Dean go, because the alternative is plagues of frogs and boils and basically the destruction of the universe. But Sam, who is thick as a brick (and who can blame him) can't even hear the lesson, and just turns on the puppy eyes to MAXIMUM and says "please please please" a couple of times, and the trickster relents. And says something cryptic I don't quite get about the guy from Taxi Driver in a skirt.
And then Sam wakes up in the motel again, and it's Wednesday! And Dean is not dead!! And Sam finally gets out of bed and hugs the fuck out of him. (There may have been actual onscreen fucking, actually--Sam's arms are so massive they may have blocked that part out, but I am pretty sure that's what I saw beneath the hug). And he forbids Dean from stopping for breakfast OR loading the car. And Dean makes it out of the episode alive, YAY.
Oh my god, I love you like breathing--I suspect that your summing up here is as good and possibly better than what went on on-screen.
HAH! I *KNEW* Bobby was the trickster, I knew it!! But I bet everyone was freaked by that! And yes, I caught the montage and it was pretty cool--he was an obsessively neat psycho. I know he didn't learn anything because that is one hard-headed boy, but now we know just what he'll do without Dean. I never did get why Dean thought that Sam would just go back to his Stanford sized life if anything happened to him. *shakes head* freaks, the both of them. And I love them to bits! Thanks you, beloved, you saved me!
I suspected Bobby was the trickster, too, when he first called, but then when he offered to die rather than have Sam kill a "civilian," and said something about Sam and Dean being the closest thing he had to family, and that he was old and reaching his time and Sam and Dean would be able to save a lot more people, and he knelt down and told Sam just to do it quick (God, my poor heart couldn't handle it!) I thought it must really be him.
And after Sam stabbed him, there really was this long period of time where he started going "Bobby? Bobby?" and there was this horrifying possibility it wasn't the trickster. Damn, this show is just SO GOOD.
But anyway--if anything, all this ep did was totally confirm all the fanon that Sam is going to completely lose his shit when Dean dies, and probably become the antiChrist. (The trickster didn't actually say that, by the way--he just said something about the two of them constantly sacrificing their lives for each other wasn't going to lead to a good end. But we all know: rain of blood and frogs.) And yeah, Dean is COMPLETELY dumb not to realize that. *Knocks both of their heads together*
It's so wonderful that this show doesn't operate in it's own little home-made vacuum--it remembers what happens from ep to ep. And even if it wasn't really Bobby, my Bobby love continues to grow! Thanks again, lovey!
Well, time for me to go to bed--or go back to torturing Lex! *HUGS*
Eeeee! What Norwich said! You need to download it! The hug went on FOREVER. Jim Beaver, who plays Bobby had posted something somewhere about him dying tonight, so I really thought for real that Sam had killed him by accident. Thank GOD that's not what happened! Also? Sam's nipple is my new favorite thing in life...well that and his arm veins. There needs to be licking of the nipple and veins me thinks!
