thoughts on SV & SPN

[retro_eidas]

• Kind of sad, but I called that being fake Chloe almost from the beginning. If for any reason she couldn't have possibly outrun Doomsday if he did turn on her. Superspeed and all that.
  
  
• Although I am suspicious the reason Clark didn't recognize her right away is because this Chloe - although the experience she described was traumatic - was telling him the version of the Chloe/Davis story he'd rather hear. That Chloe doesn't care for Davis like the denials he was clinging to last week, that she really wanted him dead. Which boy scout Clark was actually willing to go along with, right up until his conscience caught up with him.
  
  
• Ollie is hot when he's being all Green Arrowy and cunning, too bad he's such a dick this season. I almost feel sorry for the bastard though, he spent 10 billion dollars and his girl is cheating on him with a magic purple disco ball.
  
  
• Dr. Gaeta is such a Chlavis shipper, but then as is everyone else... apparently apart from Chloe.
  
  
• Although I love how all these people keep telling Clark that "Chloe may not realize how much she loves Davis", I'd wonder if Clark may really believe it too now (not just from what everyone is telling him and what Chloe's done, but watching her firsthand crying for him in "Eternal"). That apart from his conscience (that speaks in Chloe's voice), he realizes just how hurt Chloe would really be if he did kill Davis. Even if she herself would be in denial of it. That You Can't Do That On Television death scene in "Eternal" says a lot more than Chloe was or is willing to admit.
  
  
• Black Kryptonite. That does get my hopes up, but I'd bet dollars to donuts something goes terribly, terribly wrong. I do have my theories, but there's no telling how that would work on Dooms.
  
  
• Ollie actually confessed to killing Lex. Clark is so breaking up with him, but I'd wonder who gets the keys to the JL pad? Ollie has been pretty much funding the whole outfit, he going to keep chipping in for alimony even after the divorce?
  
  
• Tess is such a creepy zealot. She'd believe anything - even glowy magic purple disco balls - if they promised her sainthood. She's the "savior of Kandor"?
  
  
• Zod is going to be so pissed when he finds out his son has shacked up with a puny earthling. Although this just proves Chloe sexin' Davis will indeed save the world AND foil an evil overlord's plans. What a true heroine she is. ;)

*************************

• Bobby is still alive YAY!!!
  
  
• Cas is still in there somewhere, but "he can't." Well, why not? I'm relatively confident he will before the season is finally over, but he's killing me (and Dean it seems, "You're such a dick lately." See!! He's noticed Cas has lost that lovin feeling!) in the interim.
  
  
• Dean also reminded us of whatever it was Cas was planning to tell him last week, but couldn't/was prevented. I'm certain we'll find out what that was next week, but the angels most definitely didn't want Dean knowing about it. At least before they felt ready to tell him.
  
  
• I don't think Cas actually called Anna to him, but she just showed up to scold him... not realizing Cas had 24/7 surveillance following him around.
  
  
• However, Cas letting Sam go? Didn't see that one coming, although it makes sense. It's been hinted at for awhile Sam will indeed have a vital role to play in all this mess before the end and the angels know it. I'm also betting it was angels (possibly Cas himself, via "orders") that were sending Sam those hallucinations and the "fits", not the demon blood. Sam was jonzing pretty hard last week, but I don't remember him seeing any hallucinations at all and there were definitely no flinging across the wall by unseen forces.
  
  
• Big w00bie junkie Sam broke my heart in this ep. Good job from JPad there, I'm not at all reserved to give him his due. The scene with mommy? Who or whatever created those hallucinations (*cough*angels*cough*) knew where and how to hit him where it would hurt. The Dean hallucination, of course, being the hardest blow and saved for last, also disturbingly and purposely set-up to drive a deeper wedge between Sam and Dean.
  
  
• Not that it really needs saying either, but what the angels have planned? Can't possibly be any good and Tessa's words will indeed prove prophetic. It wouldn't shock me there is no screwing of pooches either, they're letting the seals break on purpose.
  
  
• That fight wasn't as brutal as I was expecting, but it was bad enough. Dean echoing John's words to Sam right at the end there. *sighs* It's also the first time Sam has struck Dean first and beat him in hand-to-hand.
  
  
• Perhaps this is just how my (faulty) brain works, but the more they tell-nee-scream at us "SAM IS A MONSTER!!!" the less I'm inclined to believe it and in fact more inclined to believe it will be Dean. Considering Dean has just made himself the angels' bitch and the angels are so far from trustworthy it ain't funny? Yeah, Dean's totally going to be the monster at the end of this season. I also think that's what Cas was intending to tell Dean before he was so rudely interrupted by heavenly Gitmo or whatever the hell happened to him.

Now excuse me while I try and fail to get that Zepp song out of my head.

The idea that Davis couldn't care for Chloe in the right way was Clark's comfort zone, being the only person in her life and totally dropping his no kill thing. bbah!

It's interesting too that - apart from Chloe dying - the one thing that would have very nearly dropped Clark's No Killing rule is the allusions of Chloe being taken advantage of sexually by Davis. Certainly he'd be influenced by Chloe's trauma and her being hurt in such a way and this could be just all the "beast" talk, but it almost does strike me as territorial too. Clark the Alpha and someone moving in on his pride, that would explain the Neanderthal reaction of being so very susceptible to damsel-in-distress Chloe's tears and this particular sort of trauma.

Also, the things that fake!chloe said (motel-he wouldn't let me leave) seems an awful lot like tess's 'woobie' story. the implication of rape, whatnot. I think tess might have told eva to say something like that. It always works on Clark.

I forgot about that, Tess had him wrapped around her little finger. Damn the writers for making her a zealot of a glowing purple ball!! She's such a Magnificent Bitch otherwise.

The eternal scene. that Eternal scene. *points*

Which still makes me think Davis is going to die in Chloe's arms. *le sigh* In the very least, it probably will happen all in front of Clark again, just like the last time. The denial was still there post-"Eternal", but I'd doubt anyone would be denying anything the second time.
