Yeah, I realized after you probably meant that line. I lol-ed at that - kid's not a Spiderman fan, I take it?
I suppose. It just seemed like they were kinda glossing over and making humourous a situation that basically amounts to rape (since she didn't knowingly consent). (Ditto with the Sam/Ruby situation, if it does turn out that he was sleeping with her and if the host body was still alive and conscious. Still waiting on that one, though, and I'm somewhat hopeful that the show won't go there considering the whole thing with Meg in ep2). Meh. Much though I love this show, it's hard not to be occasionally cynical about its gender politics. Cuz they suck. Course, so do those of far too many TV shows still, so... *sigh* Even the generally good and hailed ones like Buffy aren't perfect, though they certainly help make strides.
Anyway, decent ep overall. It'll be nice to get to some meatier arc eps; there have been quite a number of comedy eps so far this season... I gather next one's a biggie, based on what you said and what some people on supernatural_tv are saying?
*yawn* Better go to bed soon.. finally... have been wanting to sleep since about 12:00 this afternoon. -_- Stayed up to watch The Office on my TiVo after SPN (how much do I love that show? SO MUCH.), but... bed now...
