Supernatural Recap S9E20 Bloodlines
Chicago,
Illinois. A couple has dinner. She wants to know why they’re there, when Mr.
Ross gets up, asking the Maitre De to put a engagement ring into a glass for
him. He’s interrupted by a pair of men, one being a Mr. Lassiter, who take away
the Maitre de’s attention. Their reflections show them to be some kind of
wraiths. The maitre de takes the pair to a secret door, a hidden club. They’re
greeted by Mindy who remarks that she liked him better as a blonde. He runs his
hands over his hair, changing into a blonde. The club is full of monsters, all
mingling together. Sal follows Mindy to the bar, when Julian approaches him, a
werewolf. Sal tells him that he just wants a drink, no trouble, but Julian doesn’t
take his little son of bitches comment well, and the two fight. Sal gets the
upperhand, as Julian growls before the two are pulled apart. Sal taunts asking
him if that’s all he has, but he has more he says. The power is cut, Mindy’s
lizard tongue flicks out tasting the air. A hooded man with metal claws walks
in, and no it’s not Freddy Kruger. He begins slashing at supernaturals
everywhere.
Ross drags
his girlfriend out of the restaurant, saying that place isn’t for them. He
drags her to a ferry stop, it’s the first place he saw her. He’s getting ready
to propose to Tamara when Sal stumbles downstairs stabbed through the stomach.
Sal crumbles at their feet mumbling something to David, apologizing, as Kruger
comes running out. He throws Tamara against a wall, killing her, and finishes
off Sal.
North
Chicago University. A professor comes back by his office, his assistant thought
he was done for the weekend. When he gets to his office he turns into David
Lassiter, the dead guys little brother. He’s there to steal the answers for a
test. His sister, Margo calls him, ordering him home. She tells him that their brother
is dead.
Ross talks
with a detective, who doesn’t believe what he saw to be true. He’s sure that
the thing he saw had claws, big silver ones. He tries to reason with him, that
maybe it was a banger with a knife. The Detective worked with Ross’s father,
but Ennis is sure he knows what he saw. Sam and Dean come in flashing badges.
The boys get the detective out of the room in a hurry, and get Ennis to recap the
story again. Sam is sure that there is nothing that he could have done, but it
doesn’t make Ennis feel any better. Dean and Sam set out to find their monster.
Margo meets
with the detective, she’s not calling down, she wants to know if the ghouls are
with them, you know for when the Jets take on the Sharks. He isn’t sure, and
maybe isn’t good enough. She doesn’t pay Freddy for a maybe. But with Sal gone,
the ghouls are concerned. Margo plans to play hard ball, and bend them over
backwards if she needs to. David arrives, and Margo is surprised to see that he
came. Margo fills him in on Sal’s death. Julian and Sal had words. The Ghouls
circled around, and then Julian clawed out Sal’s heart. She plans to make him
pay for it. Margo is armed to the teeth, they’re going to war, and if he doesn’t
like it the mob princess says to talk to Dad. Their dad is hooked up to
machines. David had no idea it was so bad. Still, David wants proof before this
drastic measure. Margo says that there is an eye witness, but David still isn’t
so sure that the werewolves did this. Margo cannot believe that he’s still
jumping to the werewolves defenses, just like old times. She throws it in his
face that Violet is getting married, part of some negotiation. David isn’t
unwilling to fight, he just wants to make sure it’s the smart move, but Margo
points out that he left to be a human, and he should go back to it, and walk
away from all this.
Julian has a
drink. His tattooed friend wonders if the shifters will really make a move
against them, Julian thinks so. Violet asks for a word with Julian. She just
heard that Sal Lassiter died, but Julian is showing no signs of remorse. She
asks if he killed him, but he did not, nor does he care. She asks about the
Jinn, the tattooed guy, and he’s there because Margo wants him dead, she thinks
he sliced up her brother, and he’s not telling her any difference. There is a
war coming, and they need the Jinns on their side. Violet tries to stop him,
and he puts her in the place. She’s the bitch in the pack, and her only job is
to look pretty.
Ennis walks
the streets, headed home, but he looks lost. He goes into his closet, into his
father’s things, and takes out his gun, beneath it he finds silver bullets with
symbols carved into them. Ennis watches over the crimescene as the police
collect evidence, the scene replays in his head. He breaks into the back door,
where Sal came out of. He takes his flashlight into the empty room, looking for
clues and finds claw marks and broken glass, before he can investigate further
someone comes in to clean up the room. He hides, but Maitre de smells him out.
He draws his gun, and the maitre de drops fangs. Ennis shoots off multiple
rounds, but the bullets have no effect, luckily Dean’s big bowie knife does the
trick as he chops off the monster’s head with Sam by his side for support. Dean
suggests that he leaves, but he’s not going anywhere without some answers. It’s
up to Sam to give him the lowdown. They’re hunters, and they kill stuff. Dean
finds some souvingieres, some sort of monster trophy room. Ennis wants to join
the hunt, but Sam tries to talk him out of, wanting to give him a way out
before its too late.
Ennis looks
at pictures of his girlfriend, silver bullet in hand. Freddy comes in to talk
to him about what he thinks killed Tamara. His story sounds crazy to someone
who doesn’t believe. Ennis checks his phone, and his partner is showing signs
of being a wraith or something, his eyes are all glowy. He corners him, and he shifts. His name is
David Lassiter, and he’s a shapeshifter. David is there because he read the
police report, but Ennis doesn’t want to talk about it. David tells him that
basically his city is divided by five monster families. They police themselves,
keep the peace, and human casualties to a minimum. There is one guy trying to
stop it, and he urges him to stay out of it. He tells him that the guy who he
thinks is guilty can’t be, a werewolf wouldn’t have claw. David distracts him
and makes a run for it.
Ennis fires
up the internet to start. Sam and Dean are busy on a stakeout, and Ennis scopes
out the same place. Violet walks past David, but his disguise doesn’t fool her.
She thinks he should be there, but he’s come about Sal. She gives her condolences.
David knows that, and he knows Julian didn’t do it, but Lily knows he won’t do
anything to stop the war. The past between the two is rocky at best, she could
have run away with him, but instead she caved to pack pressure, and stayed.
Someone attacks the pair from above. It slashes David, but takes Violet before
David shoots it. Sam and Dean arrive too late, the girl is gone. Ennis knows
how to track her, but David refuses to help unless he gets to come along. For
now they’re all partners.
Violet
awakens chained up. There’s a serial killer’s board full of baby pictures. He
tells her that he’s not a freak like
her, just a man with some toys. I don’t think that’s much comfort to her.
The four
track Violet by her cell phone signal. Ennis and David are on shaky ground. Ennis
tells him that his brother spoke to him at the end, saying “David I didn’t have
a choice.”
The man
tortures Violet because her brother and Sal tore his son apart. Violet tries to
reason with him that it wouldn’t have happened, because Sal and Julian hate
each other. She realizes that its all a lie, he’s trying to start a war, not
thinking of the fall out. So many more children will die when the war starts.
The group
splits up, Dean and David, Sam and Ennis. Dean continues forward, but David is
distracted. He sees something, but never bothers to warn Dean. The human grabs
him too, and strings him up next to Violet. He thinks its sweet, almost human
how David sticks up for Violet. He slashes at David, and Violet lets her beast
out. He tells them they can look human, and act human, but they’re still
monsters. Violet springs on him, but David stops her from killing him. Dean,
Sam and Ennis arrive, and the human admits that he killed Tamara. She was in
the way, but reasons that the others are just monsters. Ennis shoots him, he’s
the real monster in the room.
The next
morning David walks Violet home. They’re both looking a little rough. David
tells Violet Sal’s last words, but he doesn’t understand them. She knows. That
night at the train station, Sal met Violet before she could meet up with David.
He didn’t want to fallout of them running away together, knowing the shifters
would be blamed. Sal gave her a choice. She could walk away, or he could kill
her and dump her body. Either way the result would be the same. She told Sal
that he she loved him, but it didn’t matter. Violet doesn’t reveal any of this
to David, but instead of turning and walking away she passionately kisses him,
and then turns tail and practically runs.
David goes
to his father. His sick father tells him that his sister wants war, that she
has to stop her. He brings the human’s claws to her, taking war off the table.
She wants to know if they’re done, but they aren’t. He tells her that he wants
back in, and she puts on a show of welcoming him back into the fold, but her
face behind his back is clear he needs to sleep with one eye open.
Sam and Dean
take Ennis back to his home. Dean gets a call that sounds important. Castiel called
warning that lines have been drawn, the angels are going to war. Sam wants to
call in other hunters, tell them what is happening, but Ennis thinks he can
handle it. Sam tries to persuade him otherwise. He lest the boys drive off, but
there is no way he’s going to just walk away. This is his city, and he’s in the
middle now. He goes back to the serial killer board, looking it over. An
anonymous caller, his father, asking him what he’s doing, warning that the
monsters will kill him.
So that’s
the preview of the new spin-off bloodlines. I’ll watch it, but I’m not sold on
any of it, but at least the next episode looks phenomenal with the angels
warring and the demons out playing.
