Dr. Sam, Dr. Dean at Your Service

So from here on out, I've decided that instead of doing recaps of the shows, I would just talk about what I liked, what I didn't like, and other tidbits I might throw in (more than I already do). Well, let's start this off. Sam and Dean are trying to live their lives as your average everyday hunter. Piece of cake right? Come on you know better. The episode started with a few people dying in extremely weird ways. A girl gets fried under the hair dryer at the salon, one man boils in his hot tub, and another guy is nail-gunned to death by a floating nail gun. Personally, it felt way too final destination and our boys, as our writers, are a little more original a classier than that. It wasn't the normal way for a victim to die, and while nothing is normal about this show, there's still a few criteria that our boys' cases usual follow.

And of course Dean still refuses to tell Sam about Amy and it's starting to take a toll on him. He tells Sam he's okay. "Yeah, ok," says Sam. "Don't say that like 'yeah, ok'," remarks Dean. "Yeah, ok," replies Sam as he walks away. I love their little witty banter.

"Really, from a freakin flask? What are you bad Santa, on the job?" Come Sam, let Dean has his early morning beverage if it helps him. And it turns out, all the mysterious deaths are caused by a witch, the wife of a realtor who she caught cheating on her. The man, Don Stark, is played by non other than James Marsters, aka Brainiac or Milton Fine on Smallville. I was so excited when I saw him on the screen. Anyways, his assistant is the next person Maggie (Don's wife) targets. She uses a kind of ancient Romanian coin as a hex bag to perform the spell. Lucky our favorite duo come in just in time to save the girl's life. It was creepy too. The assistant was biting into a cupcake and it looked like a heart was beating inside it and then she coughed up her insides, literally. A tad gross, but more of what I was expecting. What does that say about me? :)

Apparently aside from her dark alone time, Maggie runs a charity art show. Her friend Sue, is her best friend and wants to be there for her (she also wants to do a lot more, but that's all I'll say about that). Don walks in a tells her to knock it off, meaning her doing what she wants. Turns out he's a witch too and they are at war with one another and he runs her charity event. He also decapitates Sue with a platter, but hey this is Supernatural. Bobby has a spell that will stop her and it involves chicken feet. Sam every so gently places them on the table where Dean is finally enjoying a whole pie. Come on Sam, you couldn't just give him his pie time? "Take the...wouldja take that feet!" Dean yells.

Too bad the feet aren't chilled or the may have worked. So what do our boys do? Why, play Dr. Phil of course! Dean starts to talk to Mr. and Mrs. Witch, saying that they still love each other. But then he rambles off into kinky sex and Sam takes over. Oddly enough, it works and the two make up. Lucky for Sam and Dean, because (although they don't know) a leviathan finds them in their hotel room and Don saves them and removes the coins Maggie was going to use to kill them. Man I hope Don (aka Milton Fine) stays around for some ally action. How ironic would it be if the boys had a witch comrade? And what is going on with the whole leviathan issue? I just loved this episode. The shrink session was the best. Until next week, (or I guess a few days) I bid you a fond farewell!

Questions, comments, theories?
