(The scorpion looks likethis.)

When we saw this scorpion scuttle across the TV screen, we laughed so hard we cried.

We still talk about it at parties.

I have described it in great detail on more than one first date.

just, I cant take it.

This weeks installment has a few fun moments and some overly heavy emotional stuff well get into later.

Theres hope forThe Winchesters love story, if not for the bad CGI spiders.

So lets dig in.

But John hasnt watchedSupernaturalyet, so this revelation bums him out.

For now, though, theres a hunt afoot.

Conveniently, the djinn is there and hes Adas son!

Maybe its just the DMT talking from this past weekend, but … Theyre giving Carlos some good lines.

Its okay to be scared.

Its good to be scared.

Little flirtation between Tony and Lata, which I ship.

Lata deserves love!!!
