So, I have mixed feelings about this one. But let’s start at the beginning.
Chuck whammying Casifer so he can’t hurt the boys. Cool.
Casifer as sullen teenager, upset because Dad won’t apologize?
Rowena recruiting Cleo (cute—a reference to those old ‘dial a psychic’ lines and ‘Miss Cleo’?) to do a Time Travel spell? Though, if Amara did destroy the world, wouldn’t time itself end too? *brain starts to hurt*
Casifer and Chuck have a therapy session. Dean’s admission that he lies to Sam and says he’s sorry when he’s not all the time.
“Enough from the peanut gallery”.
Chuck admits Lucifer was his favorite and that he did what he did because Luci couldn’t handle the Mark. They clear the air and everyone is cool again.
Chuck points out that he and Luci are not enough to beat his sister, that they had the other Arch angels last time. “Michael is in no condition to fight.” Fine, I get that, but couldn’t Chuck fix him? And I know time is tight (as he says shortly after when talking about ‘rebuilding’ Gabriel and Raphael—guess they both really are dead?) but still, he’s God. Doesn’t he, literally, have all the time in the world? Now it just seems like they can’t afford Jake Able or something in order to get Michael. It’s a game of Twister to keep him off the show and it’s starting to get ridiculous. (I can only hope that they are saving him for some sort of ‘saving throw’.)
Loved the recruitment scenes. Dean takes Crowley, Castiel goes to the angels and Sam tackles Rowena.
Dean admits he wants Amara gone but can’t do it.
“Well, that got weird.”
Amara kills poor Donatello (shortest time as prophet ever?!), goes to Kansas and the Bunker and then makes her way to the others.
Where we find out that Sam volunteered to take the Mark. No one thought of that little detail when they were talking about locking Amara back in? That someone would have to wear the Mark? Dean might have just assumed that he would wear it but still…
The other witches all get killed quickly. Also, can I take a moment to say big time kudos to whoever has been handling Ruth/Rowena’s style? Hair, make-up, wardrobe, all fabulous! I also loved how Amara wasn’t fooled for a second.
Next up, the angels. And then the demons take a crack. They all really seemed to do a number on her and it looked like she was finally going to be beaten. Chuck and Amara have their showdown and truths come out.
Then, the tables turn. And Amara takes out Lucifer (killing him?) and breaks God. Then vows to destroy the world. And leaves.
Um, okay. Also, what was Rowena looking at outside? We never saw. Wait, what?
So we spent some time gathering the forces of good and evil to fight the Darkness, they seem to have her beat, then suddenly and abruptly she freaks out about going back into the Cage and has the strength to defeat her brother? Wait, what? I guess fear could have given her 'incentive' enough to summon extra strength to beat him but still...
