Henrickson is great. I liked him a lot too. I HATED the virgin sacrifice thing, though. Like, "virgin" is the mystical counter-balance ingredient to "demon"? Foul.
his actions and feelings make sense in light of all that he has lost and is going to lose, and while I may not ultimately like who Sam becomes (I think I will, though), I’m loving his journey.
lol sekrit spoiler SAM IS AWESOME.
I did not like when she yelled at them at the end when they realized what Lilith had done; that was basically victim blaming. The loudspeaker plan worked; it’s not their fault Lilith decided to punish the survivors anyway.
eeeeh, it's not like Lilith going apeshit was some curveball they never could have predicted. It was minimize the loss of life or ~feeeeel okay about themselves. And I really love that the show went there when ~feeeeelings option ended up blowing up in their faces.
I AM UPSET WITH BELA FOR KILLING HER PARENTS
okay but wait I have to defend my girl. We didn't actually hear Bela state the terms of her deal with the crossroads demon. I don't think there's anything to imply that she actually wished them dead? I think she just asked for the abuse to stop and the demon delivered in the most traumatic way possible because demons are horrible. (I mean, even if she had...abuse fucks people up and I honestly wouldn't hate her for it. But I don't think that's really what happened.)
