There Will Be Blood

Dean and Sam learn that to kill Dick Roman, they need blood samples of an angel, and alpha and a powerful demon. Castiel gives his blood to the brothers and Crowley informs that he will also give his blood after they get the Alpha's sample. Crowley also tells to the Winchester brothers that the Alpha Vampire is alive and they head to Hoople, North Dakota, to get his blood.

Meanwhile Dick Roman forces Kevin to translate the tablet and he buys the Sucrocorp to prepare corn syrup with a component that makes people lethargic and fatter, and kills vampires and other creatures. Will Dean and Sam succeed in getting the Alpha's blood?

"There Will Be Blood" is a great episode of Supernatural and one of the best of the Seventh Season. The story is engaging and with many plot points and a preparation for the last episode of this season. My vote is nine.

Title (Brazil): "There Will Be Blood"

There is a lot to like about this episode. The leviathans killing off the other monsters and the boys making a deal with the alpha vampire is engaging. The double cross is a bit unpredictable. This gets all the gears moving for the finale. However, this episode also contains one of the worst, cringe inducing lines in all the show's run. At the end when Dean tells the the alpha vamp about "seeing him next season" is the line and it is utterly awful. This isn't a metaepisode. This isn't a comedic episode. This is a plot episode that is quite serious in tone. The line has always been bad but given that it was wrong-the alpha vamp returned to the show nearly 5 years later!-to hear it again leaves the distinct impression that the line is the single worst moment in the entire run of the show.

"There Will Be Blood," the twenty-second episode of Supernatural's seventh season, directed by Guy Norman Bee and written by Andrew Dabb and Daniel Loflin, is a gripping and intense installment that sets the stage for the season finale. With Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) racing against time to gather the necessary ingredients to kill Dick Roman (James Patrick Stuart) and stop the Leviathan threat, the episode balances suspenseful action with emotional depth. The inclusion of key characters like Crowley (Mark Sheppard), Castiel (Misha Collins), and the Alpha Vampire (Rick Worthy) adds layers to the narrative, making "There Will Be Blood" one of the standout episodes of Season 7.

The episode begins with Sam and Dean learning that to create a weapon capable of killing Dick Roman, they need blood samples from three sources: an angel, an Alpha creature, and a powerful demon. Castiel provides his blood willingly, but Crowley insists on withholding his contribution until they secure the Alpha Vampire's sample. Meanwhile, Dick Roman forces Kevin Tran (Osric Chau) to translate the Word of God tablet and uses Sucrocorp to distribute tainted corn syrup designed to lethargize humans while killing monsters like vampires. As Sam and Dean track down the Alpha Vampire in Hoople, North Dakota, they uncover a dangerous alliance between Edgar (Benito Martinez), a Leviathan lieutenant, and the Alpha.

Guy Norman Bee's direction effectively captures the tension and urgency of the Winchesters' mission while maintaining a dark and foreboding tone. The cinematography contrasts the sterile corporate environment of Sucrocorp with the eerie atmosphere of the Alpha Vampire's lair, creating visual distinctions between human corruption and supernatural intrigue. The pacing is deliberate but engaging, allowing key moments-such as Bobby Singer's (Jim Beaver) ghostly interventions-to resonate emotionally without detracting from the main plot. However, some critics have noted minor inconsistencies in how certain subplots are resolved.

Jensen Ackles delivers a strong performance as Dean, whose growing frustration with their seemingly impossible mission is tempered by his determination to protect humanity. Jared Padalecki shines as Sam, whose calm pragmatism balances Dean's emotional intensity. Rick Worthy is captivating as the Alpha Vampire, exuding menace and charisma while revealing surprising vulnerability during his interactions with Edgar. Mark Sheppard adds humor and intrigue as Crowley, whose manipulative nature keeps both allies and enemies on edge. Osric Chau continues to impress as Kevin Tran, portraying his fear and resilience in equal measure.

There Will Be Blood" explores betrayal and survival through its depiction of alliances between unlikely parties-such as Crowley's cooperation with the Winchesters-and Edgar's manipulation of the Alpha Vampire. The episode also delves into moral ambiguity; while Sam and Dean must rely on morally questionable figures like Crowley to achieve their goals, they remain committed to protecting innocent lives. Bobby's ghostly presence raises questions about vengeance versus justice, adding emotional complexity to his character arc.

One standout moment occurs when Edgar confronts the Alpha Vampire about his loyalty to Leviathans. Their tense exchange highlights Edgar's ruthlessness while exposing cracks in the Alpha's confidence-a rare glimpse into vulnerability within a seemingly invincible creature. Another memorable sequence involves Bobby's ghost violently intervening during a confrontation at Sucrocorp, showcasing both his lingering protective instincts and his dangerous instability.

"There Will Be Blood" is a compelling episode that successfully builds suspense while advancing key narrative threads for Season 7's finale. Its exploration of alliances, moral compromise, and survival adds thematic depth to its action-driven plot. While some subplots-such as Bobby's ghostly arc-could have been further developed, strong performances and sharp writing ensure its impact remains intact. By intertwining personal stakes with cosmic threats, "There Will Be Blood" challenges viewers to reflect on how far one should go to achieve justice-a theme central to Supernatural's enduring appeal.

Not the worst magic object/spell that will save the world in spn but irks me a bit how they told Crowley about one of the requirements, brothers ain't stupid plus Crowley if needed the information for the show plot could have gotten it from Dick, so to me this is a unnecessary writing screw up. Alpha vamp was cool as ever. I would like to see more alphas but i don't think they return. They could have also not have said that all are dead, Cass was working with Crowley so there was no need to, plus the djinn was therr the alpha could have just not been found. Bobby storyline too was good. Creepy and entertaining ep tho.

Dick Roman was worst character in 7 seasons. Poorly written and acted. I'm surprised show survived this season.
