It pleases me to see that, as you say, we have two back-to-back episodes that you adored, each for different reasons. This one does set itself up as perhaps somewhat standalone, and to an extent it is, whilst having connective tissue with the overarching arc of the season. I like the twist that you half anticipate that it is a rare occasion where the murders committed are human. The wrinkle is what led to that being Amara feasting on souls. They do a nice misdirect with the mom reacting to her husband’s murder quite coldly. Like you and the detective note, such a reaction could just be shock, which Sam acknowledges, and you observe it’s still something to make note of. Turns out the mom is the red herring. You do feel bad for Sydney when she speaks of all the pain and trauma she endured, and you speak true that it feels akin to how people turn to vices to get rid of the pain, or at least dull or mute it some. Feel bad for the kid, though I love Sam offering the words of people will be there to help him with the grief. Speaking of the kid, I had a feeling that you would catch the Finn of it all. I caught that and asked out loud that that is a kid in Stranger Things. I haven’t seen the fucking show, and apparently, even I can tell you that one. That is depressing. Now to Len, the star of this episode. First, yes, massive credit to Jared Gertner for his outstanding performance as Len. I do like how you didn’t wish to get too in-depth with the parallels and analogies that can be drawn as you wish not to offend/say the wrong thing. You are absolutely correct that the situation is comparable to how one deals with anxieties, definitely depression, occasionally grief as well. How he describes his soullessness as just going through the motions and you just feel nothing anymore. I could see how Len’s scenes got to you with that. They resonated strongly with me as well. I mean, it still feels like I have my soul, half dead though it is. The worst dealings with depression, it is as he says, you kind of just drift listlessly through things, largely because people expect that. Same with grief, though that manifests itself slightly differently. You can tell Sam related, even though his experience being sans soul a different ordeal. Nice how the show demonstrates that it’s not one size fits all. Likewise, nice that Sam reminds Dean how they want to help people not kill them, and to Dean’s credit, he agrees to that quick. When Dean just tells Len about his soullessness, you had your comment about the band aid, I deadpanned, “Thank you, Mr. Tact.” It is something when Len holds onto his morals and saves the boys. It breaks the heart when he expresses hopelessness in fighting against losing what morals he has left. How his face falls when Sam says that generally, you don’t get your soul back once it’s lost. Got you and me both good when he decided to turn himself in. Would be nice to see him again. I don’t know if we do or not. And if we don’t, well, then he’s up there in terms of best one-shot characters in this show. That last bit with Amara was creepy. Other small notes about the episode and reaction. Knew you were going to give a shout out to Carol doing the most with the spatter action. I had one myself, saying, “Good to see Carol’s still earning the bread.” We both had comments about the hotel room. The doilies themselves are fine. The overabundance of doilies, on the other hand, that part’s a bit much, granted. You mentioned something similar where much though you can get down with a floral print, you felt there to be an excessive amount in the room. Honestly, I didn’t hate the floral print, nor it’s excess. That was all right. I got a laugh over your suggestion for the Danish. Fair thought of giving all the Danish to Dean; the man is even more of a human garbage can that’ll eat anything than my brother is. My nerdiness pulled me out of the opening scene how when Daisy played on the gramophone, the girl referenced The Shining, and I noted the song, and said, “That’s 2001, ma’am, but thanks for playing the Name That Kubrick Film game.” Mind you, I assume the writers went with the creepy hotel angle, so, again, I’m being too nerdy.
