Supernatural: “When Crazy Groupies Attack”

I should be writing for NaNoWriMo, but I am procrastinating and doing this instead. Let’s begin!!

I happen to like it when Supernatural makes fun of itself and its fans, so even though this was what some would call a filler episode, I found it amusing. The THEN clued us in by reminding us of SuperFan Becky from back in the day, when we found out that Chuck had been writing a little known book series called… ‘Supernatural’. (Hee)

The episode is called “Season7, Time For A Wedding!”, and we are introduced to this wedding after Dean gets an urgent text from Sammy, asking him to wear his Fed gear. Dean shows up to a Vegas chapel, mother-of-pearl handled pistol in hand ready for a fight. Instead, he is blindsided by the announcement of Sammy’s wedding… to Becky! Cue the awesome exploding cake title card! Hee!

Those of us who have been watching figure out pretty quickly that Sammy has been victim of some kind of a love spell, but it is a fun ride watching Dean, and special guest hunter, Garth (a mostly wasted DJ Qualls), try and figure out what the heck is going on! Dean gets to be smart, and heroic and be the hilarious Dean that we all love. Poor Sammy is the victim, spending most of the time being either moony-eyed, or tied to a bed, but does get a sweet moment at the end while he gets Becky to agree to an annulment.

After the outing of Guy, the rule-breaking crossroads demon that is helping Becky, and the tricky trick to catch him by the beautiful boys and Sammy’s bride, we get a cameo from our favorite demon, Crowley! He does his sarcastic little ta-dah as usual, and then lets us in on this little nugget: He is keeping the demons at bay so the Winchesters can work their magic and defeat those horrible leviathans. Crowley particularly hates head leviathan, Dick. Like you do with anyone named Dick.

A lot of my favorite funny moments aren’t exactly funny lines, but the way they were delivered. Some of my favorite stuff:

Dean (to Sammy): “Have you forgotten the average lifespan of your hook-ups?” (thank you! (poor Sammy))

Becky doodling Sam ‘hearts’ Becky all over a notebook is creepy, Sammy’s discovery of said notebook and his “This is… beautiful” and hugging of the book is adorable.

Garth: “Now you, you’ll be living with a tri-racial, paraplegic sniper until this all blows over, okay?”

Becky (to a hogtied Sammy): “Are you thirsty? Or do you need a bottle, to you know, tinkle? It’s okay, I can help.”

Guy(crossroads demon): “You’re so pathetic it loops around back to cute.”

Becky: “I was gonna show you off, not that anyone actually knows who you are. ‘Supernatural’ is not exactly popular, but you’re tall, and nice, and they would all think I was happy.”

Sammy (gagged): “Mmmhgh, mghmm, hrhmmngh.”

The reappearance of ‘the knife’! (hooray)

Crowley: “This isn’t Wall Street, this is Hell! We have a little something called integrity.” And everything else he says, as usual.

See, nothing earth shattering or super relevant, but fun. I’m easy.

Next week: Scary-o’s in the forest!!
