Alright
everyone, first, I just want to apologize for being so
tardy with this recap and review. But, I don't know what
to say except that this episode was definately my favorite
episode thus far. It had everything, and I mean everything
from plot, to setting, to action.
I
guess I will start off first with plot. As you may or
may not know, the Winchester's return to Lawrence to go
back to there old house. That in itself got me already
intrigued in the episode. Doesn't get much better than
that. Now throughout the whole episode it kept throwing
little shout-outs to some storylines. The most awaited
one were the Mary and John plots. I found the ending to
be a shocker because we not only got to see one parent,
but both of them. I was actually surprised to see John
more than Mary, obviously because Mary died in the house
so it was a little expected to see her. Missouri did a
great job of keeping John a secret, because she felt that
Sam would sense he was there, so she kinda "tested"
Sam.
Which
brings me to another point, Sam's powers. Finally, Sam
has a one up on Dean. Dean is normally always the hero,
but at least now Sam can do something Dean is unable too.
Which is good because Sam does get characterization, but
he never gets to be the hero, I mean he was saved in the
episode by Dean again, but I suppose that was because
Sam was being choked.
Now,
I also mentioned setting too, only because its back at
the house that started it all, which has a lot of significance
especially to all the fans. Now at first I was confused
about how the house was rebuilt exactly like the old one.
But then if you looked at how the house was when it was
burning down (click here) you will realize it wasn't a
big fire and only happened in that room.
Action
and comedy in this episode was just terrific. There were
some great scenes with the spirit when they were trying
to do that process so they could purify the house, and
they were getting attacked. Also, when Sam was in the
house by himself and was getting attacked. Missouri I
felt was an excellent addition to the episode. The comedy
all revolved around her and how she was like the annoying
nanny for Dean. Also, how she always read his mind and
yelled at him.
So,
if you happened to miss this episode I definately suggest
catching it. This episode was awesome and an episode we
have been asking for. This episode got a perfect score
with me, nothing seemed to bug me in it at all- it was
just great.
