I hate this episode. For me it is currently ranking as worse than Bugs, The Man Who Would be King, Route 666, Family Remains, Swap Meat, Ghostfacers, etc. In other words, dead last. Still I did my fandomly duty and watched it a second time....er, watched most of it a second time. I reserved the right to hit the fast forward button whenever the love triangle got too obnoxious, there were white gangsta wannabes on the screen, or they were recapping something that happened in the very same episode - argh! Man does that annoy me, especially when I didn't care about three random, self-absorbed, emo-angsting teens' dreams of the future the first time around. Let's just say the recap of this one is going to be very short.
But back to the point, I have compiled a list of the only quotes I found passable in the episode. Since there aren't many I haven't divided them out. Please add your favorites in the comments and don't forget to nominate the 2 best (or in my case 1) for the favorite quotes contest.
Dean: "Clear eyes, clogged arteries, can't lose."
No question for me since it was the only line I remembered after the episode ended. Love it referencing Friday Night Lights with a unique Dean spin. All other lines fall way, way lower on my list.
Other lines:
10. Sam: "What did I miss? Anything?" Dean: "Not unless you want to put an APB out on Rocky the Raccoon."9. Kate: "Shut up. Everybody shut up. First things first, those guys aren't FBI. Alright I'm pretty sure that FBI agents don't say awesome that much."
8. Professor: "You never lose the taste if you are stupid enough to have one. Once you have a human heart it's almost impossible to control the monster inside but I did until last week when I uh fell off the wagon as they say."
7. Sam: "Uh no idea on this one and no clue who is painted on the walls."
6. Sam: "Alright so what? She's got about a half day jump on us." Dean: "Mmm hmm." Sam: "You alright." Dean: "Mmm hmm." Sam: Look Kate's right. She hasn't hurt anybody. Well anybody human at least." Dean: "Yeah she didn't…she didn't choose this. Let's give her a shot." Sam: "Seriously." Dean: "Yeah, yeah." Sam: "And look if…if Kate pops back up, I mean if she strays then no questions asked. I mean we do what we've got to do. We um…we take her down."
5. Sam: "So what uh Best in Show comes here 10 years ago, ganks some poor woman, and when the dust settles and everything's in the clear, he just sets up shop?" Dean: "Yeah, comes for the human hearts, stays for the co-eds."
4. Professor: "We don't get to choose what we are."
3. Sam: "So what? We're hunting a werewolf with a pedigree?" Dean: "Awesome. Let's hope he has his papers." Sam: "And that silver can kill him."
2. Kate: "Maybe he got bit by an alien. That would explain the FBI."
1. Sam: "Dude, 2 burgers?" Dean: "I didn't eat at Big P's for like a year okay. Clear eyes, clogged arteries. Can't lose."

Probably the best part of the whole episode could have been overlooked while laughing at the clogged arteries quote. I think they just made it canon that Dean did not eat while in Purgatory. Either that or Dean was exaggerating. Both could be true but I hope we get confirmation if Dean really hadn't eaten and maybe some explanation as to how that happened. Instead of like when we got no info on how Sam could physically not sleep when he was soulless.
ReplyDeleteThe second best thing about the episode was the awesome USA poster made of film titles that hung on the wall.
you forgot the "workplace romance" quotes. haha brings me back good memories.
ReplyDeleteSince I hate all things Wincest and think the jokes about it are the worst writing the show ever does, we will never agree on this one.
ReplyDeleteNot good writing, i agree, but I don't know why, I just liked how they brought back how the side characters think both Sam and Dean are gay, which i find amusing.
ReplyDeleteWow, its strange how most of the episodes you say you hated are some of my favorites! I actually liked Bugs for the most part, and loved TMWWBK, and Ghostfacers! But gotta agree, this episode was definitely lackluster. The workplace romance comments were crap. Nothing really strikes me as memorable enough to quote. Only part I liked was at the very end, with Dean and sam.
ReplyDeleteOh my god, is there any way to turn off the reelkandi.tv ad that plays every time I load a dang page here and plays that loud, obnoxious movie and says the same thing over and over again? I can't mute it without turning off my speakers or pausing it, and as I don't want to turn off my speakers, it starts back up EVERY TIME I change a page. Its almost to the point I want to avoid spoilertv.com because its That Annoying.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on this, those references don't impress me in the least. That was my main fault with Becky.
ReplyDeleteThe best thing about the ep was when it ended. ;)
ReplyDeleteDahne you need a medal for above and beyond normal duty. lol I picked the same quote you did, but because of you did not have to watch it again to get it....THANKS
ReplyDeleteTry using Adblock Plus.
ReplyDeleteI was particularly fond of Kate killing the psycho. Then I didn't have to hear his voice whining anymore.
ReplyDeleteIn all fairness, Kripke made the fact that Wincest fiction existed canon in The Monster at the End of This Book before Becky ever appeared to annoy us. I blame Chuck both for that and Becky.
ReplyDeleteThat's odd because I only ever get sound if I accidentally scroll over it.
ReplyDeleteSo glad I could help. I too plan to actively avoid this episode as soon as the podcast and recap are finished. Do you think Samandriel does mind wipes that specific?
ReplyDeleteLOL, if you find out he does, please send him my way.
ReplyDeleteDean: "Clear eyes, clogged arteries, can't lose."
ReplyDeleteLet's hope "friday night lights" creator won't be upset like he was with Romney ;-)

Kate: "I'm pretty sure that FBI agents don't say awesome
that much."
Well if Berg objects to Supernatural's version, he doesn't have a sense of humor. Imitation, flattery, all of that.
ReplyDeletelol I'd love that too, not only to get the mind swipe but also that fact he'd visit me. ;)
ReplyDeleteI feel the same. I don't like any slash at all. The only jokes I found funny were the ones in 5x18 "Point Of No Return". I'm pretty tired of hearing about all slash in general.
ReplyDeleteI don't blame Chuck, just the fans of his books.
ReplyDeleteIt does it without me going anywhere near the ad. >.< Just as soon as I load a page, it blasts out at me. :(
ReplyDeleteDid anyone put a clock on this ep to see just how much Sam and Dean were in it? My guess is less than 10 minutes, but not going to watch it again to time it. lol
