    Better Then the Last Episode!

    This episode was better then last week and it shows Sam and Dean more. I think this is one of my other favorite episodes of the show. It was touching when dean cried when he was talking to chuck, i have seen dean cry before in another season when they were young. I soon hope they can just kill Amara already and not deal with her anymore. I also like the scene where dean is talking to chuck outside at the park and that was a good part too. Dean convinces chuck to take Amara out but i think dean cant do it so he wants chuck. Like i said, I sure hope they can kill Amara by the end of this season cause i don't like Amara she wants dean to be a part of her and i hope he don't. Again this was a very good episode and i enjoyed watching it.

    I liked it!

    The plot twists keep coming, and the jokes aren't stale.

    Defective theology

    The writers certainly are entitled to invent their own theology, even using pieces of familiar theology. But I think my favorite series does best when making up and sticking to its own rules for combating monsters, demons, angels, etc. While fighting them. I always found religion class and Sunday school to be rather boring, regardless of whether it was being taught by Metatron or Sister Mary Ignatius. More action, less talk would have been better, I think.

    Characters are doing things that the writers need them to

    In the later seasons of the show the writers got increasingly careless with characterizations and plotting around big character choices. Metatron's involvement here is a pretty good example. I hate his ending and the writers know it doesn't make much sense. They hang a lantern on the problem.

    This episode is quite lame overall.

    Saving Luci

    The dialogue of God and Dean just seems weird to me. I like Metatron here. The prophet is good, reminds a little too much of that psychic in S10. As for the rescue it was whatever. The Dean and Amara thing is getting to stale and weird for me, it doesn't have any pull to it, its pretty creepy too but played strangely by the show.

    • Trivia
      When Chuck "wakes up" late he walks into the kitchen carrying a box of Voodoo Donuts. This is a very popular donut store that has a few locations around the U.S. Chuck presumably is a fan because he would have to seek them out specifically as there are none anywhere near the boys bunker in Kansas.
    • Goofs
      A little after 6 minutes in, God(Chuck) says he has no idea where Amara is because "she's warded herself specifically against me". That makes no sense that she would do that when she has for months been looking for God and trying to get him to come to her for a confrontation.
