Supernatural: Heart
Werewolves + Supernatural = “Are you the dog whisper now?”
This episode may have centered on werewolves but it was really all about Sam, the possible monster in him and whether or not Dean would be able keep his promise. I am getting ahead of myself - the recap…
There is a spate of murders that look like “animal” attacks that have caught the eye of Sam and Dean. Mainly because Dean is as giddy as a school girl about hunting a werewolf. Enter stage left attractive and smart Madison, a potential love interest for Sam and the next meal for the werewolf. She walked into work one morning to discover her boss has been devoured on his desk and has a creepy stalker ex-boyfriend with a mane of unkempt hair. Sam stays with Madison whilst Dean is goes off to investigate, and forget cute Knut (the polar bear cub at Berlin Zoo) we had oh so cute Sam falling for Madison and getting into soaps. All red-herring clues point to the ex Kurt but it is in fact Madison who goes all lycanthropic and the brothers try to save her by severing the blood line but that doesn’t work.
Let’s face it you know that Sam getting laid wont end well. I must say that Madison was pretty pragmatic about the whole situation. She didn’t want to live a half-life and to be a threat to others. To save her Sam had to kill her, and by doing that both brothers had to confront their own demons. Dean’s stoic tear at the end could have been cheesy but it wasn’t because you knew it was for Sam.
Snaps for Supernatural for not going all hairy and just super sizing the werewolves teeth and nails, and throwing amnesia into the pot.
The CW, Supernatural, werewolves
