Hosts Berly and LA tackle Season 1, Episode 11 of Supernatural, and Berly opens celebrating "the nip slip!" while LA was "all about those arms and shoulders." FINALLY, some quality shirtless Winchester action (sort of).
The episode picks up RIGHT where Asylum left off—Dad actually calls! The hosts are blessed with John's magnificent eyelashes, a Dean nipple slip, gorgeous biceps, and Sam working his jaw in anger (so much eye candy in one two-minute scene they had to rewatch multiple times). Dad reveals he's hunting a DEMON and gives them coordinates for a case, which sends the brothers into a heated argument. Sam wants to find Dad in Sacramento, Dean wants to follow orders, and they SPLIT UP for the first time.
Dean heads to Burkittsville, Indiana (very Pleasantville vibes) where couples keep disappearing near an apple orchard with a CREEPY AF scarecrow. Meanwhile, Sam hitchhikes and meets Meg, a rebellious blonde with fabulous boots and a pixie cut. They bond over daddy issues at a bus station while drinking beer and eating Cheeto Puffs (as one does).
Episode Highlights:
The boys make up (adorable apologies without actually apologizing), discover the scarecrow is a manifestation of a pagan god from the Vanir pantheon, and burn the sacred tree. But the REAL plot twist is Meg revealing she's some kind of demon working for "Father" and she let Sam go on purpose.
The hosts dive into Norse mythology, learning about the Vanir gods including Freya (who slept with four dwarves for a necklace) and Freyr (who has a ship that folds into his pocket—convenient!). They also discover they're both part Scandinavian and get distracted talking about their ancestry.
