Episode 6.17 My Heart Will Go On
Manage episode 375822969 series 2995511
For an episode that feels very much like a throwaway MotW romp of silliness on a first watch of the series, this one sure does have some much stronger implications buried in it when you know what's coming three episodes down the road...
By the time we learn Crowley loaned 50k souls to smack down Raphael before the events of s6 that we've witnessed to this point, I think we forget that this whole wild plan in THIS episode was specifically engineered to manufacture... 50k new souls. It almost feels as if this was a last-ditch attempt for Cas to try and "fix" things, to get out of that deal, to pay Crowley back and walk away. But it failed. It only puts Sam and Dean in more direct danger, and he abandons it as quickly and messily as he began.
IT'S A TRAGEDY. And on a first watch, you can't possibly understand it. Which is why we do this! For the pain! :D
