Season 2, Episode 12: Nightshifter

"I liked him.  He's not so different from you and me.  People think we're crazy."
What I said then:

"Man, the music on #Supernatural is incredible."
 - Twitter, August 18, 2013

Although I don't know with 100% certainty that we my tweet was about this episode, I can only assume that I was referring to the use of "Renegade" at the end.  It was one of the best uses of a song I've ever heard in a TV show.  Such a great song and such perfect usage - this time around too.  The break in the music for Dean to say "we are so screwed" before launching into the chorus - so good and took the show to a whole new level.

Other thoughts:
  • This episode takes place in Milwaukee, which is one of my favorite places in the country.  I get excited every time they go to Wisconsin.
  • Ronald Resnick - what a great character.  Poor guy.  Sam was so concerned about protecting him from the truth to keep him alive, when Dean just wanted to "throw him a bone", but in the end, it was humans that killed him.
  • My friend Paul sent me a picture of himself and some friends a couple weeks ago and his eyes were glowing white in the picture and he just said "mandroid?"  Too funny.
  • Dean's line about the guard - "I like him.  He says okiedokie."  Well then.  Going by that logic, Dean would like me too.
  • I loved that Ronald didn't like Sam, and the gloating look that Dean gave when Ronald told him that.
  • Welcome to the show, Hendrickson.  One of my favorite characters.  "Crazy's in there.  And I just hung up on it."
  • And that final scene.  Still one of my favorite scenes of the show.
