Okay, this is probably an unpopular opinion but this episode felt like filler to me. We didn't really find out much (except that the angels falling is "apparently" here to stay).
But let's start at the beginning.
So some guy was going to kill himself but then he gets splattered?
Cas is working at a convenience store under the name Steve? (And is he living there as well? The sleeping bag and all.)
Was it me or were those guys Cas was copying supposed to be sort of Sam and Dean-ish? I mean one was bigger than the other (not tall but just bigger) and wearing a flannel shirt. The other guy seemed like he had a leather jacket on, etc. It made me curious.
Dean not wanting to do research. Ah, Dean! Never change. And he uses the phone call to get out of it. Also Dean obviously working hard to keep Sam/Zeke (Seke? Zam?) from Cas.
Asking Crowley for help. Just knew that was going to turn into a deal (it always does with Crowley. After all, he used to be a Crossroads Demon!).
Sam's insult "scarier than you've been in years". Ouch!
So a special brand of angel, eh (why are we finding out about more/new species now? I don't know, just seems to be coming out of nowhere). I do like the idea of an angel trying to continue their mission on earth and being confused by human emotions.
Dean giving Cas dating advice was priceless!
And whoops, it wasn't a date, she needed a babysitter. I know she pointed out how responsible he was but shouldn't she at least have asked if he knew anything about kids? (I realized that would have given it away but still...)
Ah, Kevin. Crowley pushes your buttons so easily! And Crowley on hold (how the mighty have fallen).
Cas singing the "Greatest American Hero" theme (I'm wondering how he even knows it? The show isn't in repeats anymore as far as I know. He wouldn't have been paying attention when the show first aired--since he was a full on angel back then. *confused*) and Ephraim came for Cas, not the baby (called it!).
So the spell can't be undone, huh? Is Crowley lying? But other things have been 'impossible' before and somehow the boys find a way.
Crowley taking the needle. I think he was injecting himself with Kevin's blood. To feel human again or something similar. I think he is finding he enjoyed it before and wants that feeling back. Or maybe he figures if he becomes human enough the devil's trap won't hold him?
More lies, Dean? Lying to Cas about the angels. *sighs*
So while not a bad episode I just felt like we didn't really get much forward momentum. Some of it was very cute though.
