I will say the whole ending to Michael felt anticlimactic, but I guess they couldn't keep him locked in Dean's head for the rest of the season. I do wonder what will happen with Chekhov's Ma'lak box. I mean they spent a lot of time building it and kept talking about it, so something should go into it. Right? Maye the next big bad?

Well, if Lucifer comes back...

We can all hide in the box?

I think it’s fine that Jack killed Michael. He needed to be killed, and I don’t care who did it. Anyway, if Lucifer is coming back, they need at least one person who’s strong enough to fight him. Clearly Showis going with a permanently useless version of Castiel, so.

Honestly, I think Rowena clings to the “no one but Sam can kill me” thing bc it gives her a sense of safety, she can make herself believe no one else is a danger to her.

I watched Clash of the Titans a thousand times on the UHF channel with my siblings when we were kids, so I was excited about the Medusa-reference and didn’t even mind the gross scenes.

I heard a lot of complaints about this ep but honestly I really liked it. Farewell to the AV club, you won’t be missed.

"Dean can't breathe and goes blind and immediately calls out for Sam." Best part of the episode, along with Sam's distress when Dean was hurt.

Well Dean's books and Billie were wrong again weren't they? You would have thought that one of them might have showed Jack killing Michael and saving Dean, unless Micahel's not really dead?

My money (unfortunately) is on Lucifer coming back and maybe teaming up with Jack. Although I'm not sure how we'll get there unless the gang get super freaked out by Jack again. I really hope there's something more exciting on the horizon than that (I'd take anything over Lucifer at this point!)

Are we sure they were wrong? I mean all we saw was Dean's reaction to his book. We didn't see the book itself. Is it possible the book said that someone ELSE would end up in the Ma'lak box and Dean was trying to avert that ending? It's just a thought that I've had.

I've had that thought too. I like the idea that Dean was lying about the book's true terrible contents and if it's about somebody else going in the box then at least all that portentous buildup to a cliffhanger wouldn't be wasted.

I don't know... I don't see this fitting in with Dean's actions. If he was convinced Billie's books were truly the only possible outcomes, he'd want to stick to what happens in the books. And if he believes those outcomes can be changed, there's no reason to build the box in the first place.

I don't get why Jack didn't just... bring the hunters back. He made a big deal out of Lucifer doing it before, and he's more powerful than Lucifer or Michael, so why not? For that matter, why have the "people die" discussion without bringing up the fact that Sam and Dean have died multiple times and are still here?
