Who knew he could have morally gray noble intentions?
Caine has been busy while we havent seen him on screen.
Namely kidnapping and murdering folks like the death row inmate in the beginning of the episode.
The actor playing Caine is able to evoke this quiet, old timely malice to his character.
Yeah, you do.
The look of this episode wasnt distinctive.
We had some nice shaky cam technique again near the end, when Dean is about to fight Caine.
But the most noticeable visual was Caines entrance.
Simple, but effective.
Crowley later has a similar appearance, walking out of the shadows.
Hes our boys ally, so he walks into the light.

Deans tough guy exterior evaporates when he admits hes scared.
We dont dwell on this long.
He would finish his own reign of terror by killing Sam.
When he ends the fight, hes pale, shaken, and not at all like himself.
When he first meets Dean, he seems tired and resigned to his life going wrong.
Now, supposedly unable to control his murderous intent, he gets the boys attention again.
After Dean slices his hand off, he submits.
kinda looks he gave himself up willingly.
There was a little addition to Crowleys side story this episode.
He finally admits that Rowena is manipulating him.
Dean made a big mistake telling Crowley that he lied about him being in danger.
Crowley will be hesitant to help in the future, and more likely to believe Rowena about her suspicions.
In unrelated news, isnt it great that Crowleys cell phone labels Dean as Not Moose?
I couldnt not mention that.
Theres a strange little denouement at the end.
I expected a cut-to-black directly after: Youre going to kill your brother.
This time we were given time to stew on it.
Sam tries to give Dean false hope.
The next episode airs March 18thas the show switches to Wednesday nights.
