We have so less to say when episodes are so good 😆 And honestly I have nothing much to rant about, I can only rave.
My general opinion about the episode in entirety is that I felt really proud of the boys. Sam for one has always had reasons to feel guilty or blame himself. Even if he hasn't made a mistake on purpose he beats himself for a lot of things but I felt immense pride in the character development when I saw him convince Magda that having powers that aren't human doesn't make her a demon. She can control them. He's had an experience with powers and he in his heart only wanted to use it for the good. That he was manipulated wasn't his fault. But having learnt his lesson then I am glad he doesn't loathe about it, and even if he still does he has come to a point to make peace with it. And as the compassionate, loving and kind man he is he wants to help as many he can.
And then Dean. the guy who has been masking his feelings for so long. Always putting the I am the Big Brother I have to be strong facade let his guard down and spoke to Sam. The brothers don't talk easily and especially Dean. But this time it didn't take much to make him share his feelings.
He's always been the one to thread the Winchester family. He used to try and keep the family together by being a bridge between his dad and Sam. And then now even in spite of being hurt by his mothers decision he messages her. That text just broke my heart. His hurt was spelled so clearly there. But I am glad he made his peace. He understood where his mother was coming from (although I honestly don't agree with what Mary has done) but Dean accepting it just shows some emotional development.
Both the boys have progressed when it comes to communicating with each other. And it showed when Sam reached out despite that he would also be reeling under pain about what his mom did. And when Dean heard him out, told him what he felt and eventually gave in to his brothers opinion.
I loved the guest cast, the story threaded from the previous seasons with the current one.
P.S - The BMOL are going to ruin a lot of the good work the boys do. I just hope they team up once and get kicked in their ass by the Winchesters
