Supernatural | Season 15 Episode 17 - "Unity"


Spoiler Alert!

 

Hello everybody!

I'm sorry I'm a bit late with this post but I didn't have time on Friday and you know, yesterday was Halloween so I was busy and celebrating the whole day. Also, I'm sorry if I forget some details of the episode. As I said, I watched it on Thursday and has been a few days. And so, with all the apologies said, let's get into the actual episode.

This week's episode was crazy! We knew this was going to be a big episode from the look of the preview but I was not expecting what it ended up being!

With God back on Earth, it's time for the last part of the plan - some type of trial that Jack has to do. In order to do that, he needs to meet with someone so it's road trip time. However, this time it's only Dean and Jack going while Sam stays behind looking for another way. Although that was right at the beginning of the episode, that was something so critical - Sam arguing with Dean that Jack can't die to which Dean responds saying that Jack isn't family. Not only that was so awful of Dean to say but also Jack heard that, which made me so sad and feel so sorry for him. And even with that, Jack went with Dean do this last task.

And because we're on that already, turns out that that last task leads them to Adam, the First Man, who is the true architect behind the plan to kill God. The test is none other than choose a rock that was touches by God which Jack passes and is rewarded by a rib from Adam, who explains that the power it contains will intertwine with Jack's soul and create a black hole that can suck anything divine, including Chuck and Amara.

At the same time, back in the bunker, Sam and Castiel are working on another plan in which they can save Jack. That's when they remember and find the key to Death's Library. Sam goes in there and, when he enters, he finds none other than the Empty, who reveals that Billie has actually been manipulating the whole situation in order for her to take over as God once Chuck and Amara are dead. Post that, Sam convinces the Empty that they are on the same side and to let him take Death's book on God's destruction. 

I forgot to say but there was another side story that was also happening - Chuck and Amara. With Earth being the last of God's worlds, Amara tries to show Chuck how good Earth is. However, she fails at that and so she traps him in the bunker so that the Winchesters can trap him for good. That's when Chuck reveals that this is another of his plans to get Sam and Dean to kill each other. With all of that, and being betrayed by the Winchesters, Amara allows Chuck to absorb her. At the same time, we see Sam and Dean argue again.

Dean is back with Jack and realizing that it's time, Jack absorbs Adam's rib, beginning the process of it intertwining with Jack's soul (and eventually killing Jack). They get into the bunker and that's when they're faced with Sam and Death's book and Sam saying that they can find another way but the process inside Jack has already began and that creates a whole 'fight' between the brothers where Dean even points out a gun at Sam. That was so shocking but, eventually, Sam is able to talk Dean down and that's when God appears to them.

The episode ends with Chuck fed up with the Winchesters, deciding that he no longer cares what happens and departs, leaving Jack in the middle of that whole process which ends up with him collapsing. 

That end was so unexpected! I mean, we knew the brothers wouldn't die, not in this episode at least but just 'giving up' in the whole defeating God story-line?! I was not expecting that and, from the looks of it, I'm assuming Billie (aka Death) will be the main villain for the remaining three episodes. Although that is surprising, I don't know if that's necessarily good. We have been so invested in this story to, suddenly, just give up on that and move to another one?! That kind of annoys me but... We'll see. Maybe that will be a good thing.

So, I guess that's pretty much it for this week's post. Let me know what you thought of this really surprising episode and how you feel about this sudden change. Oh, and please tell me that you're mad at Dean for saying that Jack isn't family because I am so mad at him. Anyway.. That's it. I'll see you next week with another one!

Love,

Daniela.
