retsuko* I love the twist on the classic "the call is coming from inside the house" trope.
* Jenny really is growing on me as a character. I love her internal conflict over wanting to help Macy, her shame over her possession, and her actions to help Abbie. I think she may become my favorite character at this rate.
* Good old salt. So useful.
* And the call from inside the house trope continues, in the creepiest way possible. Yikes.
* I think this is the first time we've ever seen the characters really fail at the worst and most important juncture. As horrible as it is, it's kind of a relief to know this will happen and the show will go on.
* Holy crap, this is the most horrific they've ever gone. Jebus! Still cheese-o, of course, but shocking nonetheless.
* I think my new OTP for this show is Ichabod/Abbie/Jenny/awesome.
* the lamp looks more like a cheese grater than a destroyer of evil.
* Is this the Michigan Militia? In any case, I think Crane may be the best equipped to dialogue with a bunch of conspiracy theory survivalist gun nuts. Where's Jenny during the scene? Oh, being all BAMF, I see.
* HOLY CRAP: "seven years ago, I invaded you." D:
* Holy crap AGAIN! That was some majorly crazy shit!
* OK, after that, everyone needs a beer. Or shawarma. Or something!
* HISTORY! @_@;;;;;;;;
Next week: two-hour-season finale! OMG!

Date: 2014-01-14 11:09 pm (UTC)I'm sorry to hear that Katrina is so reviled on Tumblr. I only look at Gingerhaze's stuff, so I really have no idea what the general mood is. :(
So, if not Katrina, who *is* Crane lamenting that he trusted? My bets are on Irving (since he came so close to handing over the Bible) or possibly Abbie, if Moloch manipulates it to appear as if she's abandoned him (Crane.) I'm also making bets with myself over just how bad the cliffhanger will be: will it be Agent-Mulder-in-a-burning-train-car-with-smallpox-infected-alien-corpses-now-wait-four-whole-months-damn-you-Chris-Carter level bad? Or just the-Doctor-has-regenerated-why-can't-we-have-more-adventures-NOW level bad?

As to Ichabod lamenting he trusted someone, I think Henry, the Sin Eater played by John Noble, may have been overwhelmed by the sin he took from others. John Noble is AMAZING at shifting between harmless and dark/creepy, so I hope that the writers take advantage of that. Honestly, if they ended up killing off Bram-as-Death, John Noble would make a chilling incarnation of Death himself.
