"Behave yourself. No homework. Watch porn."

Um. So, this recap got rather, um...long. I'm not really sure how that happened! I started writing, and then all of a sudden there were more pages than I had ever written about an episode before.

So. Here it is: so many pages I'm not even going to tell you the count, in which I rattle on at length about self-referential internal meta, the awesomeness of Sam and Dean, data protection, the awesomeness of the Prophet Chuck, the formation of mythology and folklore (what? It's totally relevant), Show's ongoing exploration of destiny versus free will, the brothers' fumblings attempts at pretending things are normal between them, the joys of domesticity, the consequences of Sam's lies, Dean's lack of faith in his brother, objectivity, flight versus strategic retreat, role reversal and the brothers' massive difference in outlook, the pros and cons of confronting Lilith, Dean's protective big brother instincts, Sam's conflicted motivations, Chuck as a counsellor, the ludicrousy of the Winchester Gospel concept, prophets in the Supernatural universe, the desperation of both brothers, Castiel being deliciously devious, why Lilith is such an ineffectual adversary, and lots more beside.
