That orange jacket! I don't HATE it yet, but the more I see it, the more I wish I didn't (and Sam has more than one jacket so he must have picked it out of his wardrobe, like, this orange jacket goes so well with my jeans I'll wear this today! Or maybe it's his backup jacket that he uses when the others are in the washer or covered in monster or something!)

At the moment, I feel that we'll end with Mary killing Ketch to save the boys, but then they'll all be put on Trial by the BMOL and unable to step the baby from being born, but Cas will be there as Kelly dies and he'll take the baby away and drive off into the sunset, and Lucifer will be mad. Very mad.

I'm torn between Dean killing Ketch because Ketch has been set up as Dean's dark mirror and characters usually kill their dark mirrors, or Mary kills Ketch because she's been set up as the one possible chink in his armor. Or maybe they do it together, and it's the mother/son bonding activity that finally spackles the cracks in their relationship.

Oh yes, it could certainly be Dean that kills Ketch. But I feel like Show has been leading to Mary making a sacrifice for her children, as a true sign of her love; they keep telling us she's a hunter and a mother, but for me, we're seeing more hunter Mary, than Mother Mary, and maybe this will be the final way to prove she can be both.

Saying that, I've been here before and have been wrong, so maybe he won't die at all, but he'll turn and kill all of BMOL!!!! ;)

You know, I could see that happening--if Ketch could be convinced that the BMoL's leadership have been compromised, he might decide it's his duty to take them out so as to serve the mission/organization itself. A 'loyalty to the state before the government' kind of thing. That'd be an interesting turn.

But is Ketch actually loyal to anyone?

[z-publicizes.livejournal.com]

Maybe not to people, but to the institution that gives him a sense of order and purpose? Like, obviously he's in it for the sheer sadistic pleasure, but I don't think we've seen enough of him to say if he's also a true believer in...something or other. In his scenes with Mary, he seems to have a lot of passion and pride when it comes to his work. But that could be more about the means than the ends--he's just really, really into murder.

Well, you've convinced me!!! Or maybe he really will kill Mary, they'll be a battle, but maybe he gets the upper hand, and she'll die trying to protect her family. And maybe then Dean will kill him, or he'll escape and go a bit mad and he'll be set up for next years big bad...so many possibilities!!!
