Review: Supernatural 7.13 The Slice Girls

Caption this!

Supernatural returned this week with a solid episode. The Spice Girls, featuring Monster Baby Spice, is essentially about the Amazon women's mating season, they hunt rich successful men (wow, at lease they have standards), they mate, they get pregnant, their daughters grow like weeds, and then they kill their birth fathers. War, what is good for?… The story evolves..

Wait.. hold on for a damn second…........

Aces, Dean. (or not)

DEAN HAD SEX! It's about time he gets laid, but poor Dean, it turned out to be a bit of a boo-boo, didn't? It was actually sad, like.. he was used. Damn you woman! But hey, gratuitous fanservice.. what can I say? We are very selfless fans. And yeah.. his tattoo is still there!

Now, where were we?

Sam enjoys poking fun at Dean's fatherhood more than he should. Did Dean made fun of Sam's marriage with Becky?

The Slice Girls was written by Eugenie Ross-Leming and Brad Buckner. They also wrote for this season's Shut Up Dr Phil. I think The Slice Girls was a better script, Ross-Leming and Buckner were given the opportunity to inject the emotional aspects, which I like. This episode was also Jerry Wanek's directorial debut. I think Jerry did a great job with his shots, direction and for some weird reasons, I really like the pace of the story more than I should.

With Emma Winchester (HOLY SHIT I CANNOT BELIEVE I JUST TYPED THIS… I SWEAR ANYONE MENTION THIS AGAIN I WILL START THROWING PUNCHES), The Slice Girls was technically a Winchester family episode. But really.. like 99% of it, wasn't. Thank God Sam was in the right state of mind, I love Sammy in this episode. He saved Dean's life. He didn't hesitate to take the shot and kill his niece (HOLY SHIT.. AGAIN..I CANNOT BELIEVE I JUST TYPED THIS… I SWEAR ANYONE MENTION THIS AGAIN I WILL START THROWING PUNCHES). But Sam had to and I am so glad he did. And what's more, I am glad Dean saw the whole thing, he was hoping Sam to show up, deep down he wanted Sam to do it.

Dean is a man of principle. He doesn't just go around killing monsters and people because he can. Dean didn't kill Amy Pond's son, because he was still a kid and he hadn't kill anyone yet, so Dean let him live. Dean made it clear that the moment he killed people, he'd find him! So, the same principle was applied here, Emma hadn't killed anyone, so Dean asked her to walk away. It wasn't like Dean and Emma really bonded and had a father-daughter moment or if Dean had a soft heart (ok may be a little), but he almost had no reason to waste her with her just standing there messing with his mind. If she made a move to attack Dean or killed someone already, Dean had a reason to kill her. Both Sam and Dean knew she'd kill eventually, and I am glad Sam made an executive decision to kill her. A reasonable ending.

Due to recent events of Bobby's death and Cas' assumed death, it really hit Dean hard and he has been demonstrating a lack of self-belief and confidence. I love what Sam said at the end of the episode, "Just don't get killed." Sam realises Dean wasn't in the right state of mind, and he had to keep remind his big brother -- no matter how down you are, just don't get killed!! Pull yourself together and let's put a plan together to get rid of the Leviathans!

It could be anyone.. Bobby, Cas, Ellen, Jo... Ruby.

I really like the mystery behind the magical appearance of the parchment. It makes sense if it was Bobby, his body was burnt but if he didn't go with the Reaper, so his spirit could still be around to help the boys. There is another theory, I was having a discussion with my friends on Twitter that, seeing Cas is returning soon, perhaps it was him who helped the boys? It's a possibility. But my money is on Bobby.. OK.. may be $7 on Bobby, and $3 on Cas.

Sam enjoys doing the catwalk more than he should.

I think the boys were really sharp in this episode, don't you think? It's like Dean really had a investment banker suit on. That actually looks like a new suit and tie.

I swear Sam is using a Mac. I am 99% sure!

Here is Zap2it's Interview with Jared and Jensen.. they talked about stuff.

Next week's episode looks so much fun!!! I am excited!
