Crowley is the devil the Winchesters know, but the Winchesters are the devil Crowley knows, and everybody’s gonna compromise at least a little to reach the common goal. And they all hope it’s gonna be worth it. With only two episodes left to go in s5 after this one, it’s getting to desperation hours...
I enjoy straightforward plot episodes. The main horrifying revelations in this one revolve around Sam, the awful choice he begins contemplating about how they might even remotely have a shot of dragging Lucifer back into the cage (I still hate the show for putting him through this), and just how tragically and inevitably he’d been manipulated into exactly this position his entire life. Even when he’d thought he’d been safest, when he’d thought he’d freed himself from a life entangled in the supernatural while he’d been at Stanford. It had all just been part of a very, very long game. And it’s heartbreaking to learn here at nearly the eleventh hour how little choice he’d ever really had in any of it.
