Review: Supernatural Season 9, Episode 13: The Purge
Wait a minute, you mean to tell me that there are Peruvian fat-sucking monsters running around in the world, and I didn’t know about it until now?
Seriously, I know that Sam and Dean viewed what was happening at Canyon Valley as monstrous, but—aside from Alonzo’s extracurricular activities—I don’t see much of a problem with it. The world is full of humans trying to lose weight; if their friendly, neighborhood Pishtaco can help with that, so much the better. I mean, it seems like a very logical arrangement to me. True, the roofies in the pudding aren’t very ethical, but revealing the world of monsters and magic to average Americans probably isn’t a good idea either.
If you ask me, I think Sam and Dean did the right thing: kill Alonzo and leave well enough alone with Maritza.
While the “mystery” of the episode was pretty entertaining, I am getting prett-y fed up with Sam’s instance that the Winchesters don’t act like brothers.
I get that Sam has had trauma in his life, and I’m sympathetic to that. However, his behavior is so unhelpful. There’s no way the Winchesters can pretend they’re not brothers. They are brothers! They have years of shared history together. Sam is simply being totally unreasonable. Also, I just don’t understand why he is so against Dean saving him. Like, of course Dean is going to save him! Hasn’t he been watching the past nine seasons? That’s what the Winchesters do.
I don’t know; it all just seems very irrational to me. I know that trust has been damaged, but they need to make up and get back to being brothers again.
On an unrelated note, bonus points to the accent coach who gave all those actors perfect Minnesota accents. It was a delight for the ears.
Rating: 8/10
