Did you notice the poster over Dean's shoulder in your best broment moment pic? It reads "PROTECT YOU FOREVER" in caps. Coincidence? I. think. not. So that raises the question... protect who? Sam? Amara? Both? Interesting placement, damn them!!! And that was the scene where Dean was adamant over going after Amara and striking while they can.

Maybe that's why young Amara looked so content walking thru the crowded street. She's confident in her protector always being there for her. I loved how she kinda looked up to the sky and rolled her eyes white... loved this actresses portrayal the best so far.

Karen, as usual I love your picks, especially for most nostalgic moment. This whole season seems like an exercise in nostalgia, with so many references to earlier seasons and with the brothers acting more like the old Sam and Dean than they have in years. I'm loving it! But I would add one more category: Most Electrifying Scene. My pick for that is that final vision of Sam's, of the cage. I felt such a jolt of excitement, and I can't recall the last time a scene produced that reaction in me. Thanks for continuing to do these articles!

Thanks Karen. Enjoy your picks and the whole recap. Loved your choice for Best Ironic. Really did depict with clarity the path for these two characters/ servants of God and there struggle for power and being human. Agree saddest moment... poor Len. Joins the group of most sympathetic characters on the show. I did not notice the newscaster until you pointed her out. Yes, she looks like she could be a demon. I do agree the Asylum was creepy but the outside did not match the interior. I guess Crowley renovated to make it look like the inside of a castle and put all the stain glass windows in the back. ;). I thought Crowley's self help moment was ridiculous. Crowley knows Amara is the Darkness, he said she was evil, and she is powering up on souls. To paint this as a domestic situation with a rebellious teen was borderline absurd and then downright laughable when he was shown actually looking at a book about teens. For me the whole concept was idiotic but I know how this show likes to glorify the empowered whiny rebellious teen girl.
I agree with Samandean10 that Sam's vision of the cage should win Best Reveal. Very exciting. I also note that I still think the visions are directed from God because the cue to the vision was a question to Sam from Dean "I don't suppose God's decided to share some wisdom on the matter?" I also would add Cas's best moment was standing his ground and asking Dean why he did not kill Amara. Best Looks could kill moment was the look Amara flashed Dean when he attempted to kill her. And finally I would add the best Cas- Sam connection was when they both knew Dean's explanation about why he did not kill Amara was only a bit of the real story.
